The Journey of Love Shofia

I Want to See You Smile

The light above the operating room door has died. Indicates the operation is complete. The men ran to the door. A doctor came out of the room.

"How's doctor?" ask Yahya.

"Thank God the operation went well" said the doctor, who was welcomed by all of them. There was a bit of relief from everyone's face. "The patient will soon be transferred to the treatment room" he continued.

"Alhamdulillah O Allah. Thank you doctor." said Abah. There was relief in his words.

Everyone hugged each other expressing their happiness. Now everyone took turns hugging Shofia who was seen smiling in her seat.

Zakaria has now been transferred to the treatment room. Zakaria was in the VIP room but the Family took turns to enter for the convenience of Zakaria. Umi and Shofia got their first chance to enter.

Umi Sits Beside the cage. While Shofia was standing behind Umi. Zakaria was unconscious. The effects of drugs have not disappeared.

"You should get well soon Zaka" said umi sobbed. After a long time there. Umi was silent. And only that sentence came out of his lips that trembled.

"Sorry Shofia. Umi is no longer strong here. Umi could not see Zakaria lying down like this. Umi get out first. You take care of it first." said Umi before getting up from her seat. Then pat Shofia on the shoulder slowly.

After Umi's out. Shofia sat on the chair that was occupied by Umi. Just like Umi. She just stayed there while looking at her future husband who was lying weakly unconscious.

Slowly the defense faltered. I don't know since when those naughty tears just came out of his two eyes. Even his shoulders went up and down as a result of his stuffing.

Shofia flinched as she felt the grip of the hand holding her hand. Feels warm. Shofia looked at Zakaria's pale face. Zakaria smiled gently at him. Shofia's getting sobbing.

"Hey. I told you I don't like watching you cry. Why are you so whiny?" Zacharias said with all his might. Shofia can't control herself. She immediately hugged the body of her future husband. He cried in Zachariah's chest. Zakaria's hand stroked the yellow veil that wrapped the girl's head.

"That's it. Don't cry anymore. I'm right here."

"I'm afraid of Gus. I'm afraid of losing you. I love you." Zakaria smile. She feels so great Shofia's love for her. So too with himself. She let Shofia continue sobbing to remove the burden on her heart.

"Cry as much as you are now. But promise me you won't drop your tears because of me."

Silent...

"Is the kid okay?" she asked when Shofia's crying subsided and had already taken off her embrace. He recalled the incident before the accident.

flash back on....

He intends to take the dowry at his friend's place. He took his bike slowly. And when he was about to reach his friend's shop, suddenly there was a toddler who was released from his mother's hands.

From far away he actually saw the mother holding the hand of the child so as not to run. Looks like the kid asked for something across the street.

Zakaria did not expect that the child's hand had slipped from her mother's grasp and ran straight towards her. He was so shocked because it happened so suddenly. With a reflex he turned the steering wheel to the left. There was a tree there. And that accident was inevitable.

flash back off...

"You're so good Gus. Under these circumstances alone it is still worrying to others" Shofia said. "Just calm. Because of your kindness. The boy did not suffer any injuries. I met him earlier. He's a sweet and funny kid." he continued.

"Shofia Lathifunnis. I love you so much." Shofis warms. This was not the first time Zechariah had spoken such sacred words to her. But as much as the man said it, the sense he felt increased as well.

"I love you too Gus. I love you so much" Shofia said with a smile before she got out of her seat and exited the room.
