My name is Afirah, I am an only child and my mother has died since giving birth to me.
I lived with my dad until I was 18.
At the Hospital, I was accompanying my father who was lying sick in bed. It's been 1 month father is sick, he has a malignant cancer stage 4. That's my fault, I never found out what my father's illness was. Tau - know my father has been exposed to the disease that is getting worse.
The door opened, I glanced and saw a handsome young doctor wearing glasses. I admit he's very handsome.
"I'm here to check on the patient,"
"Where is the doctor who used to examine my father," I asked.
"He's being assigned out of town, so you can wait outside."
I nodded then went out, from the glass of the door I saw my father being examined.
Before long the nurse came out to tell me that if I could get in, I rushed in and went straight to my father.
"How's my father doing, is he improving, is he going to get well?" I asked as I glanced at the young doctor.
"Hhh" Instead of getting an answer the doctor sighed instead.
"Afirah," Father clasped my hand, I looked at him fixedly.
"Son, my life is not long. And I'd love it before I left, I saw you get married." I'm speechless.
"Why do you talk like that, I'm definitely cured. Afirah sure?"
Dad smiled at me, "I'd love to see you marry me, son,".
"But father, who am I going to marry? I've never been in a relationship or close relationship with a man" I said confusedly,
"I'll marry you, afirah?" I was surprised who said that. I glanced back and only the young doctor was here.
"A-what do you mean,"
"Yes, she's the one who's gonna marry you?".
"But dad, me, who he is. I don't know him."
"And gradually you will know him, afirah? His name is Zein, he's a good guy, smart, handsome. I'd really like to see you marry her, "I've been thinking for a long time.
"I go out first, yeah" I said and went out.
"Zein, zein are you really going to do my wish,"
"Not to worry, I'll convince afirah. He will, I promise, love him and take good care of him. And considering my dad and o'm best friends, I don't want to upset you."
"you are a good boy, you will always thank you." The young doctor named zein nodded slowly.
Afirah was sitting in the hospital garden seat, still confused and objected to his father's wishes.
"I admit he's handsome, but I just got to know him. I don't know how good he is, there's no way he and I can be together. Cause,,,,
"You doubt me, does my face look like a liar. Do I have to do something for you to trust me, or do I have to...
Afirah was surprised to find that the handsome young doctor was already beside her.
"stop - stop, as much as you will talk." Afirah. Does a doctor always say a lot? Think afirah.
"why do you want to marry me, you're smart and handsome. Isn't there still another woman who is more suited to you, rather than risking your happiness to marry me, you better marry someone else."
zein chuckled, "Much less will you talk,"
afirah gaped, "That's my line, why are you using it without my permission."
"I have to get permission first,"
"Of course,"
"Afirah, do you still doubt me. At least I just want to make your dad happy,"
"was given by my father, why should you obey him. I can make her happy too,"
"your father's color I've considered my second father, my father and your father to be good friends."
"But why I don't know, why my father never told me."
Zein sniffed his shoulders, "I know, marriage is not a trivial thing. But there's no harm if we want to make the people we care about the most,"
I looked at Zein, I didn't want to get married. But hearing Zein's words made me feel guilty if I didn't.
"As time goes by, we'll definitely like each other. You're beautiful and I'm handsome,,,
Afirah looked at the young doctor at a glance, "How can you talk that big if you're handsome,"
"You didn't admit it just now,"
"Me, when. I never said it,"
"Yaya, it's up to you. But the adage of love at first sight is always true, right?" Zein said with a smile.
(Handsomely,) Inner afirah.
"All right, I want to."
"You're sure,"
"70% sure,"
"That means 30% of you are still in doubt,"
"Slightly," said afirah by fusing her thumb and index finger.
"okay, even though 30% of you are still in doubt. I'm gonna make 30% of it disappear and make you 100% trust me,"
"I challenge you,"
"Corn,"
"Where?"
"Walking to your father,"
"Wait,"
"Moreover,"
"How old are you?"
"I'm 6 years older than you are,"
"Cih, just saying 23 years is hard."
Zein scratched his head, "So what should I call brother, brother zein."
Zein rubbed his face, he held back his smile. I'm in trouble, why is she so sweet. Inner zein.
"What's wrong, does brother zein mind." Ask afirah with raised eyebrows.
"I-I don't mind,"
"Pffft, hahahaha."
"Why are you laughing,"
"sister, you're so sweet. Hahaha,,,"
*Deg, he said I'm sweet. What is this, he says I'm sweet. Hoho, why am I so happy*. Zein did not stop stirring in his heart.
"Hallo,," Afirah waved his hand in front of Zein's face.
"Look we meet dad," added afirah.
"All right, come on."
Afirah's father was thinking about how to get afirah to marry zein.
Until the door opened and was seen by him, zein and afirah entered together.
"Dark, afirah.."
"Dad, I want to marry brother zein."
Afirah's father smiled happily, "Yes, and soon we'll both get married."
"Afirah, you're sure. Do you accept this marriage with an element of coercion."
"No dad, no one's forcing the heat."
Actually I'm still not sure if my decision is the right thing, but there's no harm if I want to make you happy. After all, brother zein is a very good man. Inner afirah.
