The Pursuit of Fatimah Love

Mark

Chapter 44

"It turns out you are very talented to be an international Muslim model" said Grace while eating food served in front of their table.

"My breathing almost stopped. Why didn't Mommy tell you before?" Fatimah's question made Grace smile.

"Assalamualaikum, excuse me," the baritone voice stopped their chatter and instantly they turned to the origin of the voice.

"Waalaikumsalam," they answered simultaneously.

Fatimah flinched when she saw the figure of a Caucasian man with his perfect face so eloquent in greeting. However, he immediately lowered his gaze, making the bule man comment on a smile.

"Hi, Mark! How you doing, son?" Grace immediately stood up from her seat and immediately hugged Mark, as well as Alex. They see happiness on their faces. Alex immediately tells Mark to sit next to him, so that Mark's position is faced with Fatimah.

Seeing Mark's gaze at Fatimah, made Alex and Grace understand. "This is Elza, the son of our best friend," Grace said with a smile, introducing Mark to Fatimah.

Mark who understood what kind of woman Fatimah was, he just cupped his palms in front of his chest, smiling and nodding slowly, so did Fatimah do the same.

"This is Elza who has just become aunty model in Muslim clothing fashion is married?" Mark asked while looking at Grace.

"Certainly Mark. This Fatimah really has the talent as an international model" Grace praised, making Mark smile at Fatimah.

As soon as Fatimah's face instantly blushed, she only gave a small smile, it was also just towards Grace. For some reason, the attitude of Fatimah seemed to be very charming a Mark.

Alex only sighed noticing Mark Fatimah's gaze. If Mark is really interested in Fatimah, it means he must immediately prevent it, because there is someone who is risking his life for the happiness of Fatimah.

Grace smiled happily. He was well aware that his nephew who had just converted was fascinated by Fatimah at first sight. However, Grace also does not want to make Mark disappointed, because he knows very well who the man Fatimah wants, and vice versa.

"Are you also interested in the designer field, Elza?" Mark asked, still looking at Fatimah.

Fatimah, who got the question from Mark, was only able to swallow the saliva rough. He also did not understand his wishes. He is very interested in the field of fashion, what else with the success of Grace as an international designer.

"Honestly, I would love to introduce Muslim women's clothing to the world" replied Fatimah, without returning Mark's gaze. Of course, making Mark feel Fatimah is a special woman who is different from the women he has met and known.

"I want to prove to the world, if Muslim fashion can also be an international fashion that is not inferior to other clothes." Fatimah said with sparkling eyes. Looks of spirit in his eyes and face

Of course, Fatimah's words made Grace, Alex and Mark smile. Fatimah also smiled, the shadow of Afif flashed in her eyes. A hope and a spirit were raised, remembering that Afif was fighting for their love.

"I'm sure you can get all of that. What's more I see you're a smart and passionate woman, you also look to have talent in fashion." Mark said with a look of admiration.

Mark seemed to find his love, his ribs. She was determined after this fashion event, she would intend to find out the status of Fatimah to Alex or Grace.

The New York Fashion Week is over, and Fatimah and Grace go home. Meanwhile, Alex and Mark leave for their place of service. Coincidentally Mark also occupied one of the important departments in which Alex worked.

...****************...

"Om, I want to talk for a while" Mark said, as they reached the service.

Alex knew what Mark was going to talk about, he sighed while rubbing his face rough.

"Well, I thought I was talking in my room!" firmly Alex while stepping into his room, followed by Mark.

"What do you want to talk about?" Alex asked without further ado, as they sat facing each other.

Alex took a breath. " What do you want to talk about Elza?? Alex asked who knew what Mark meant.

"Can I know what Elza's status is?" Mark asked with a thumping chest, he was very afraid if it turned out Fatimah was married.

Alex took another breath, "Are you interested in Elza?" Alex asked back, making Mark's heart even more careless.

"Let's know, there are a lot of women in my life. In fact, before I was converted, my life was surrounded by many women." Mark replied, pausing his words.

"Om, I feel a different aura on Elza," Mark said with a serious face, looking deeply at Alex. It was as if trying to convince Alex with his feelings.

"I want to do ta'aruf with Elza," said Mark again, making Alex's face riled up.

"It looks like you can't do that to Mark" Alex said, making Mark frown.

"I mean Om? Does Elza already have any?" Mark asked worriedly.

"Do you know Afif, my Indonesian niece?" Alex's question left Mark speechless.

Mark knew Afif from childhood, but, their last meeting was when they were teenagers. Because of their busyness and different countries, make them no longer communicate.

"What is Elza Afif's wife?" Mark asked back, a look of disappointment on his face.

"Here and there will be Mark" Alex replied, making Mark frown even more.

"Afif and Elza were once married, but because one thing made them separate," explains Alex who makes Mark increasingly clueless.

Alex took a rough breath. "Afif is returning to his country to solve all problems and fight for Elza's happiness." Alex's explanation made Mark think hard.

"Mark, I know very well, if you're so hard to fall in love. I'm happy, Elza can be a special person in your heart, though, this is the beginning of your meeting" Alex said.

Alex and Grace hope that Mark will quickly find a woman capable of making him fall in love. However, they did not expect that Mark could fall in love with Fatimah.

"I understand because my love comes at an inopportune time. Please let me know him better." Mark said with disappointment. His love withered before it developed.

"You must be honored, no matter how much you try to have it, if it's not for you, it will definitely leave you, and vice versa. I hope you can understand it." Alex said as he patted Mark's shoulder gently.

Mark was silent, it hurt so much. Two hours later, he met Fatimah.
