When Love is Tassified

Chapter 51

The wedding day of the two people who are betrothed has been determined and the wedding will be held within four days after all kinds of affairs are completed. Starting from the preparation of marriage, the terms of the marriage book, and so forth. And for these four days all the preparations are finished, just waiting for tomorrow to come. Azkiah and Azriel's wedding day.

Fatimah who really wants this matchmaking is so enthusiastic about preparing for marriage very festively. He wanted to make Naura think that the winner was her and as a warning to no longer harass her granddaughter.

However, behind all this there is Khanza who does not talk much to his grandmother, to Azriel or to anyone he meets. The girl was mute and deaf as many people tried to call her, including Azkia.

"Khanza, Khanza wait! I want to talk to you." Azkia blocks Khanza's move. During this time Khanza continued to avoid Azkia and did not interact anything with his family.

"What are you talking about, Ning? There's nothing more to talk about. I'm going to the kobong, excuse me." Khanza does not want to talk to people who he thinks are insensitive to the situation. Even her calling was not a big brother anymore, but Ning.

"This is what makes me wonder, why?" tanya Azkia wants to know the reason Khanza continues to avoid him even though they are often joking and close.

Khanza stopped, then he looked. "Why? You ask why? So the answer is because I don't like your marriage. I know Ning Azkia is the ideal female figure for every man, but not for me and for my sister. Just so Ning knew, my sister was forced to accept this matchmaking for the sake of my grandmother, she didn't like all of this. My brother prefers Brother Naura instead of Ning Azkia his sons ustadz and Ustadzah. And why is my attitude like that? Because I feel disappointed in you who are only selfish without seeing a wounded heart, not just one, but many."

"Sorry, if Ning really feels this marriage can make you happy please continue, but don't expect to get the love and heart of my brother. Maybe Ning can get her body, but not with her heart and love."

Azkia. Is it true that Khanza was told that Azriel was forced to marry her? Surely the man liked Naura when he had not seen Azriel before. But Khanza's attitude like this is so disturbing his heart and mind.

"But I'm sure that I can make your brother happy. God willing I can be her choice because I have advantages over Naura. Maybe in terms of science, the order of Krama, adab, to purity, I am still superior to Naura. Trust me, your brother won't regret getting a wife like me."

Khanza smiled miris. "Can a grandson of a cottage owner have this kind of mind? It could be a descendant who simply demeans others. From the way you mention what you have shows selfishness and pride, but it is up to Ning, which is sure that everything that begins with compulsion will not lead to happiness. May Allah forgive your sins that have demeaned others and have spoken arrogance." Khanza is gone.

Azkia silently sculpted. Khanza's words hurt his heart. Arrogant and selfish, two words that even he had only heard all this time and that left him stunned.

"Astaghfirullah." Azkia was aware of her wrong speech.

Almost every day Naura looks for the figure in the photo and her afternoon holds a simple tahlilan in her contract. However, during that time he did not find the man in the photo.

"For seven days, my mother left, but I couldn't find this man. God, where else should I go looking for him? Show me your best path, O God." He was disappointed if he had not found his father.

Because he did not find it, Naura decided to return to the rented and wanted to return to the cottage. At least if there he feels calm and many people can accompany him. Although his heart would be at war with the one who hated him, but that place was only the most comfortable place Naura had.

The next day, Naura had prepared to leave the contract. He brings every memory he has with his mother including photos. In a state of still two, with a heavy heart he left.

"It's not that I don't want to be here, but I want calm and comfort. If I stay here, I'll keep thinking and just cry. I'm sorry, Mom." He then went away from eating his mother. Ya Naura went to the mother's grave first to say goodbye to her.

Upon arriving on the road that is often passed by buses, Naura waited for the vehicle to pass. But he did not get public transport. While waiting, he was always pondering, but this time while staring at the photo he was holding.

Tiidd ... Tiii ...

Naura looked up, she frowned when the car stopped in front of her. "Why did this car stop in front of me?"

Then a man came down from the car to Naura. "Hi, do you remember me?" ask the man.

Naura silently looked at her face, then she nodded. "I remember, you were the doctor who handled my mother. Sorry, what's up?"

"Hmm actually I want to ask you this address." The man showed me the address on his phone, and Naura looked at him.

"This address is not far from the cottage I am going to visit. You stay ..."

"What a coincidence, then we go together. You show me the way, let me drive."

"Sorry, I'll take the bus." Naura rejects him, he cannot go with strangers whom he does not know.

The man went looking for the bus, and then he saw his watch. "Now it's six in the morning, the usual bus will pass again in about two hours. Instead of waiting for you to come with me. Ah don't worry, I'm on duty at the hospital that's there, so you don't have to be afraid, I'm a good guy. Believe me, and you look at my face, is there a villain?"

Naura stared fixedly at that face, shaking her head. "No."

"Then come on, let's be together."

Naura silently thought about the man's invitation. But because he could not wait any longer and did want to immediately meet Khanza to vent his sadness, Naura followed the man's invitation. "Oh Allah protect me" he said.

"All right, but you don't fuck around!"

"God will not." The man smiled, letting Naura walk.

Naura stood up, but the photo on her lap fell to the ground. He wanted to crouch down, but the man picked it up first.

"Who is this?" ask him with a different gaze staring fixed faces in the photo.

Naura took. "Both of my parents, they no longer exist. More precisely, my mother died and my father left us to choose his family."

"Have you met your father?" he asked curiously while opening the car door.

"Never."

Shut up, the man fell silent.
