Whyhapp, Detective?

Episode 22

"Do you like Shakila?" Haikal is suspicious

" i'd rather see a furry cat . Sometimes I want to cut the fur for me to plait and then I make a pillowcase"

"Don't like it that way. Like a love to a woman, like a feeling of love"

"Love?" Halis Malih shriveled" I've never read her book. Like a novel about love. I've seen it but have no intention of reading it"honestly Malih remembered some of the novels he had seen in the bookstore

On the first step he set foot in the bookstore. Not the novel he was looking for, but a book that could add to his insight. Like psychology, for example.

"According to Ibnul Qayyim al-Jauziah: love is the outpouring of the heart and its turmoil when overwhelmed with the desire to meet the lover."

Malih's head is all right. Start to understand what definition of love is?. And he thinks that love is my deep longing when we are far away from the idol. Maybe that is also what causes Malih can not be far from his mother and that is because he loves the mother.

"Like love to mom. When far away then we will miss him, always want to look at his face and make sure that he is always okay" concluded Malih who was given help after haikal

"Father admit you're good at science. But you're less smart about love"

Now her curiosity began to overflow. Even Malih thought of buying some books so that he could understand the overall meaning of the word love. Maybe there are some things that Malih does not understand, so far his mind is only centered on insight. Not too interested in romantic.

"Maybe I'll buy some books. To answer all my curiosity" said Malih moved from his seat to go outside

"Maybe this can help you" Haikal suggested thrusting the novel into the malih

Malih looked down to see the novel presented by Haikal" the cover was very interesting. Maybe I'll borrow it. I'll give it back tomorrow. Thank you, Haikal"

"You can't read it in one day" he smiled

"Why?"

"Because this novel is special. When your heart is calm, read it. You will immediately understand the meaning of the word true love" he continued then handed the novel to Malih

"All right'. Looks interesting. Then I'm leaving. Assalamualaikum"his cameraman walked out of Haikal's room.

Haikal's head shook his head, because he only knew that Malih did not understand at all about the meaning of love. It is clear that Malih is not interested in the romantic smell.

Shakila just finished putting the book in her bag. The class was empty, only Shakila and Nia were in the classroom. Since after the incident that terrorized her, apparently made Shakila really alone to be in class. Moreover, the culprit has not yet been found. He will think 1000 times if he wants to stay in class by himself, and repeat the same thing. That's horrible!.

"How about after school we go for a walk. Next to the school is a new food stall. People say it's good. Let's try, yuk!"bring Nia spirit. It seemed like Nia was really hoping that Shakila would agree to her invitation.

"sorry. I can't Nia" she regretted, then put on her backpack

Nia's face turned moody"when I wanted to go there, Shakila. Can't you really?" Ask again hoping Shakila will change to his decision.

Shakila's head shook

"Owhh.come on!. You're my best friend just this one time. We eat there, huh?. Plisss" please Nia make Shakila wonder

"What's wrong with you?" Wonder asked" looks suspicious!" her eyes narrowed to see Nia full of probing

Nia's face turned irritated"Stop looking at me like that!. Your look makes me a suspect"

Feeling nothing suspicious Shakila walked away, leaving Nia behind. Not that he did not want to accept Nia's invitation. But he really can't right now, let alone he has an appointment with his brother. So it was clear, Shakila had to make time for the family.

"Shakila by the way, no more news about the two detectives?" Nia's steps try to align with Shakila's steps that look fast

"Forget over Nia!. That's not important. mening we take care of our exam which is coming soon"

"But I'm really curious. Are they really suicidal or..."

"It!" Shakila's tone rose when Nia was still discussing suicide.

"Don't talk about that anymore!. I don't want to hear it. Whatever it is!. Really!. Help me not to remember!" Pinta Shakila clasped her palms on her chest. her head lowered "so please!. Don't say anything about the suicide issue anymore" he added, leaving the pensive Nia

The library looks lonely. A woman in a hood is reading a book. He was a school library officer. His skin looks white. With a lipstick that looks natural on her lips. Although the age is not young anymore, but the face still looks young, at least two years younger than the age that has stepped on 47 years.

"Assynolajet. Madam Cahyati, I want to borrow this book. 1 Week can not?" The bargain was because the vino was impossible to read the tome in just a two-day period.

Cahyati. Look at the book borrowed by vino" Wow, sorry vino!. The book can't be borrowed, it's a school decision. Maybe you can read it tomorrow" she said subtly.

"All right'. Maybe I'll come back tomorrow. Can this book be dedicated to me. There are a few pages that I folded" message vino who was given a nod to agree Cahyati

"Mom will keep it on a different shelf"

"Thank you Ma. Tomorrow I'll come again. Assalamualaikum" his hands waved, his smile looking more carefree than usual. Until his body disappeared from the doorway.

"May I see the book" now Malih who came, his gaze can not be separated from the book held by Cahyati.

I have been watching him from a distance. Watching the vino from the start of reading, until he stood up. There are several things that make Malih suspicious when the vino looks to fold one of the pages. I don't know what it's about. Likely, he just wanted to mark the book so he could read the next day.

"alright. But the folds are not opened, because the vino will read it again"Cahyati recalled .

The book is on the table. Looks Malih has started to read the pages of the book which he thinks is a bit less interesting. The book was nothing but a novel, with the title "Be the Morning Light" telling of a girl who was always in mockery. But all that changed when there was a man who came with 1000 roses. And offered the girl to be his morning light.

"Isa'. It seems like a love novel. But if you look at the story is a bit similar to the story of vino anyway. In banter, no friends. The difference is only 1 he was freed by a man by offering him a wedding. If the vino doesn't exist, it still looks the same. Until now.."the knot while thinking.

Now Malih is already on the final page, because from earlier he was just jumping, not really reading all the night in the novel. Up to one page was the center of his attention, when he was on one of the pages marked with a small round circle of red ink . Probably to mark it

"Pejangga ‘Arab says :

المرأة تكتم الحب أربعين سنه ولا تكتم البغض ساعة واحده

the woman was able to hide her love for forty years but was unable to hide her anger for an hour." Suddenly Malih remembered shakila. When Shakila is angry he will immediately like a firecracker exploding, even his emotions can not be held and sometimes it makes Malih's ears so noisy.

"The woman, at first, was afraid to approach you, but in the end, she wept as you moved away from her"

Shakila was walking down the school corridor. His return was hampered because Mr. Gian told him to meet Ms. Cahyati to bring a book. Finally he complied even with a sluggish face

"The woman is a great deception or a great love, and you determine her, O man.If you make treason upon her, she also makes treason for you, and if you love her, she is also a heathen against you."

His steps had already entered the library room. Until his gaze centered on Malih who was seriously reading a book. His forehead shriveled, as this was the first time Shakila had seen Malih in the library.

"The woman was treating, when she was feverish, helping, when she was hard, staying up, but tired, and mourning someone she did not know."

"The woman is afraid of betrayal, afraid of loss, afraid of nothing

"Assynogaic"

"and it's not easy to forget a man she doesn't love. constantly watching her from afar.""

His head was stretched out, along with the words he had finished reading from the novel. There Shakila just silenced, his head bowed deeply, because the words Malih at the end. feels right touching the heart of shakila. Either it was a coincidence or it came at the right time.

"But Cahyati said the book "Be the Morning Light" is on you. Mr. Gian told me to take him" said shakila. It even felt like his breathing had become congested, his heart was pounding, his legs wanted to quickly run to eliminate all the strange conditions in his body.

Malih nodded" this book" sodor malih calmed down, then moved from his seat to leave.

Before leaving for a moment he was silent"When you hear the voices of people starting to cheer. Two days later there will be a family knocking on your house. Assalamualaikum" After saying that Malih again walked away leaving the pensive Shakila.

"What does that mean?" With the words of Malih that he did not understand.

Seriate...

Does anyone know what Malih means ?🤔😂
