The Little Angel Candidate
23. Not Too Convinced
...~Happy Reading~...
That night Deon had to accompany Amber to the minimarket, Amber beside him of course felt safe because this young man next to her was the young man she knew.
"Amber's? If it's not your fault you're Islamic, right?" ask Deon suddenly.
Amber immediately turned to the left, and looked at Deon's face looking at her with a serious look. How did the young man know he was a Muslim?
"Yes, Brother!" amber was confused. "Why indeed?" ask Amber carefully.
"Silver is giving advice, yes! You better close your letter so that other men don't do anything to you" Deon explained. "You know, don't you know what you mean?" ask Deon with a smile.
"I mean Brother... Should I wear a hijab? To cover the aurat?" ask Amber a little bit.
I don't know why Amber feels happy if someone cares about her, even if it's someone she doesn't have a relationship with.
"Yes. Of course," Deon replied with a nod. "I don't mean you wear the hijab but... It's better that you wear it to avoid doing things like them" Deon added.
"Why did Allah order his people to wear the hijab? According to the letter of Al Ahzab verse 59, Allah SWT ordered the women to cover the law with a hijab to protect his servant. The goal is to maintain the honor and safety of women while on the move." Deon explained.
Without Deon realizing that the girl beside him was even embarrassed to hear Deon's own explanation, in fact he was easily carried away if someone was carrying around such Religion.
After arriving at the minimarket they finally entered, Amber immediately grabbed the basket in blue but first with Deon who prevented himself from carrying the basket.
"Let my brother take it!" deon said pushing Amber's body slowly towards the food shelves.
Amber walked ahead while Deon was still faithfully behind the girl, many times Deon had to thrust a basket at Amber when the girl had gotten her groceries. Deon frowned confusedly, staring at Amber who grabbed eight packs of instant noodles.
Instant noodles are an unhealthy food, and Deon holds Amber's hand when Amber wants to take a few more packs.
"Don't eat instant noodles like this! You know, 'Is that instant noodles an unhealthy food?"
Amber just nodded her head slowly, because she knew that instant noodles were unhealthy food but... Amber keeps forcing herself to eat instant noodles almost every day.
"Nobody looks like a doctor, huh?" kekeh Amber while teasing Deon.
"Father Brother Doctor so Brother must also follow in the footsteps of Father Brother," Deon replied making Amber clap her hands in a frenzy.
"Great, Brother! You know Dad to Amber sometime, huh?"
Deon nodded and gently stroked the top of Amber's head, not expecting Amber to want to see her father. After finishing shopping at the minimarket, they finally decided to pay for all Amber groceries.
"Ouch! Sorry, Brother! I think I forgot to bring my wallet," said Amber, looking at her groceries with a sad look.
Deon smiled slightly and then took out a black card at the minimarket cashier, making Amber look at the card with a confused look.
"Why did you pay?" ask Amber.
"Leave it! Brother is only helping you," Deon replied in a relaxed tone.

While Adiva was sitting on the sofa feeling uneasy, just now he contacted his parents to return home as soon as possible. He wanted to tell the two of them the problem, but somehow his feelings were uncomfortable when Amber walked out of the house.
"Will Amber be okay? It's been an hour out of the house" murmured Adiva.
How many minutes later Amber finally entered while carrying two plastic items filled with groceries, Adiva then moved from the sofa and then stepped foot into the kitchen.
"Amber's? Are you all right?" ask Adiva with a worried tone.
"I'm fine!" amber replied lying but her eyes said otherwise.
Adiva climbed next to his brow as if he could not believe Amber's answer, which was true the girl lied that she was fine while her eyes said otherwise.
"Correct?"
Amber sighed then looked at Adiva with a lazy look, then stepped her foot into the kitchen while taking out all her groceries.
"Diva's? I want nanya,"
"I don't fit in with a hijab?" ask Amber for a bit of hesitation.
"Suit dong!" answer Adiva briefly.
"Oh yes! Tomorrow morning I'm gonna go home so tomorrow you're gonna stay here, okay?" adiva.
Amber nodded in response, knowing that the reason Adiva called her parents to come to Jakarta quickly was a problem the girl had experienced. After that they undergo their respective activities, such as Amber who will cook dinner for the two of them.
Adiva who was done with cleaning his house, he immediately helped Amber to cook in the kitchen together. He only helps Amber by cleaning up dirty things, then thrusting the things he has washed into the girl.
"Diva! You want to use eggs?" ask Amber to Adiva.
"Yes. Two eggs yes!" answer Adiva casually.
"Yes." Yeah."

At night around ten o'clock, someone had pressed the bell of the house making Amber immediately disturbed. With a feeling of laziness he got out of bed, then took both of his legs towards the door of the room. Strolling down the top beach of the house in slow steps, remind Amber that she just woke up and was unable to rush to the stairs.
After arriving at the main door the girl immediately peeked at someone from behind the window, it turned out that they were the husband and wife of the owner of this house. They are the parents of Adiva, who happens to rush home immediately when he hears from his daughter if the girl will give word.
Amber instantly opened the door for the two of them, there was no way she was giving Adiva's parents to wait outside for overnight.
"Assynjetoy!"
"Wa'alaikumsalam!" amber replied, shaking hands with the couple.
"Amber's? How did you just wake up? Which diva?" asked the mother to look around to find Adiva's whereabouts.
"Diva's still asleep, Tan!" answer Amber awkwardly.
"Geez!"
Then the two immediately stepped inside, they of course sat on the sofa first after hours to the city of Jakarta.
"Aunty? Uncle? Can I make you some coffee and tea?" bargain Amber politely.
"Can!" answer both compact.
Amber quickly headed to the kitchen to make the couple drink, after finishing making drinks for them then Amber stepped out while carrying a black tray containing two drinks.
"This is your drink,"
Amber put a tray containing two glasses of the drink on the middle room table, how many seconds later Adiva immediately went down when he saw his parents had gone home.
"Mother! Daddy!"
Adiva's shout made the three of them immediately turn towards the stairs, where Adiva was running towards the middle room.
"Don't run! Later you fall," the father scolded Adiva immediately remembered that he was carrying one life in his stomach.
After remembering with his entrails, Adiva immediately grinned and normalized his steps towards the three of them. After arriving at the middle room the girl immediately sat between the two, leaning her head on the Father's shoulder.
"Dad! You guys took a long time to take care of the company," said Adiva sound spoiled.
While Amber who was near them immediately let out a heavy sigh and stepped her feet away from the living room, the clear liquid had escaped past both of her cheeks.
"Why does it hurt so much?" amber murmured then clasped tightly to her chest which was painful.
"What are you talking about?" asked the mother, frowning confused.
Adiva's body immediately stiffened when he heard the question coming out of his mouth, he did not expect that his parents would come home quickly today.
"Promise to Diva! If you won't be angry with the Diva" Adiva's great-grandson.
The two threw gazes at each other upon hearing Adiva's worried voice, they both grew curious if the girl said that.
"Depending on what you tell me," the father replied with a long sigh.
Adiva immediately undoes his intention to tell a story with his parents, he is increasingly convinced that they will both be angry with him.
What if they're gonna be mad at Adiva? Adiva isn't ready if they're going to throw him out of the house.
Seriate...
