The Heart (Nadira)
Episode 163



At nine o'clock in the night, Dira was sent home by Zaidan. Dira's car was carried by a cousin of Zaidan. Zaidan asks his cousin to take Dira's car to his family's house.


" How, Ra? Udan mendingan?"


Zaidan said as he glanced towards Dira who was leaning her head.


" He'em. Thanks, Dan. You're so good."


Zaidan smiled gently. Then nod.


" What matters is that you're not stressed, Ra. Every creature called God will be tested. You ask the Owner of Life for guidance. And the answer will not disappoint."


Dira looked at Zaidan. There was no doubt in his words.


Upon arrival at Papa Haidar's house, Dira went down and saw Papa and his mother still sitting on the porch of the house.


" You didn't go down first, Dan?"


Seeing Dira's parents on the terrace, Zaidan came down. They walk in tandem.


" Assalamualaikum, Pa, Ma."


Papa Haidar who heard the greeting, saw Dira in front of him.Then smiled gently, and received Dira's hand. So did Mama Yasmin.


" Asalamualaikum, Om, Aunt."


Sapa Zaidan and make Dira's parents look at Zaidan. His forehead wrinkled trying to ask with the look of his eyes.


" Pa, this is Zaidan. His friend Dion's. And the doctor who treated Hanan, when Hanan was sick, Pa."


Dira tries to explain to Papa Haidar. Papa Haidar who heard Dira's words immediately thrust his hand to get acquainted with Zaidan.


" Waalaikumsalam, I am Haidar, Dira's father. Let's enter. "


Papa Haidar invited Zaidan to come in and sit down. But with a heavy heart, Zaidan refused subtly.


" Thank you, Om. But sorry om, looks like I have to go home, it's late, Om. Maybe another chance I'll come again."


Papa Haidar just smiled. As a man, Papa Haidar could see Zaidan's eyes on Dira.


" Yes, Om. Sorry, om. Good evening. Ra, I'm saying yes. For your car, maybe tomorrow just delivered by my cousin. "


" Yes, Dan. No problem, it's not."


Dira sent Zaidan to his car. After Zaidan's car passed, Dira returned to the house.


Seeing his papa who was still sitting on the terrace, Dira also sat with Papa and Mama. After chatting for a while, Dira was saying goodbye to her room. And clean up.


Dira pecks herself in front of the mirror. Until the sound of knocking on the door distracts him.


" Dear, this is Mama. Mama's in."


Mama Yasmin said from behind the door.


" Go in Ma. The door's not in the key."


Mama Yasmin came in, smiling at Dira who had just finished her bath. Even now it is stretching prayer rugs to perform Isya prayers.


" What's up, Ma.."


" It's okay, honey. Have you eaten?"


" Oh, Ma."


" Yes, now you pray first. Don't forget to ask for the best in your life. Especially the companion."


Mama Yasmin said, and made Dira thin her lips. After kissing Dira's forehead, Yasmin's mother came out of Dira's room. The original goal was to ask who the man named Zaidan was.


But because of seeing Dira who will perform Isya prayer, Mama Yasmin also canceled her question. He allowed Dira to perform his obligatory worship. In the heart of mama Yasmin just pray, hopefully this daughter will find happiness in her life.


" It seems like the man had more feelings for Dira. Mama can see from her eyes when she sees Dira, Pa."


Mama Yasmin began her talk to Papa Haidar. Make Papa Haidar stop typing it on the phone in his hold.


" You mean Mama?"
