Zulaikha's Last Love

Chapters. 75. Return to Indonesia

Ammar walked to Zulaikha's house with an uneasy mind, fearing that what he would say would make Zulaikha sad and weeping.

"Games, Ammar! where are you going?" Mikayla who had just come out of Zulaikha's house accidentally passed Ammar in the Zulaikha house, she stopped Ammar's steps who seemed to be unaware that there was him in that place.

"Mika? what are you doing here?" ammar asked, he was a little surprised when he heard the voice of the woman.

"i should ask, what are you doing here? do you want to meet Zulaikha's mother quietly?" accuse Mikayla with narrowing one eye.

From a distance, a middle-aged woman was walking towards the two of them. She hastened her footsteps when she saw Ammar in the courtyard of Zulaikha's house, even though she had forbidden her son from meeting Zulaikha until later tonight.

"that's not it, I just-"

"What's all, Ammar? can't you hold back on your feelings until tonight?"

Ammar and Mikayla looked back at the voice of the Seized Mother, while the Seized Mother further accelerated her footsteps.

Ammar slapped her hand when the middle-aged woman was standing next to him, while Mikayla only smiled wryly as she winked one eye at the Seized Mother.

"Mom's going home?" asked Ammar after releasing his mother's hand, seen Bu Dijah looking at Ammar sharply.

"why? can't you go home?" Sejah's mother asked Ammar, who replied with the man's smile.

"it's not so Mom, I'm just asking," said Ammar, he then continued his steps to meet with Zulaikha.

Sejah's mother who knew where the direction of her son's destination immediately pulled Ammar's clothes made the man's steps stopped, he then turned to his mother as if he was asking what the intention of the pull that his mother did.

"Mommy told you, didn't you, Ammar! you can't meet Zulaikha before the proposal arrives" said Ms. Sejah, recalling what she said this morning.

Hearing what his mother said, Ammar then glanced at Mikayla who was still in that place.

Mikayla who knew the meaning of Ammar's glance rushed to leave and went to Ammar's house, while Ibu Dijah saw Ammar confused because he felt that there was something Ammar wanted to say with him.

"Mom, there's something important I have to say to Zulaikha" Ammar said.

He then told all the things that happened to Defin's parents including about the request of those who wanted to meet with Zulaikha, Ammar also said that he had to tell Zulaikha what Ridwan had told him.

"what do you think about Mom?" ask Ammar after he finished telling his mother everything.

Sejah's mother smiled when she heard what Ammar said, "you've done the right thing, son! do not let something happen that makes Zulaikha feel sad" said Ibu Dijah, he is proud of Ammar who still thinks about Zulaikha's former in-laws even though they should be busy preparing a proposal event that will happen in a few hours.

"Come, we have to tell Zulaikha about this!" Sejah's mother pulls Ammar's hand towards Zulaikha's house, they can't waste any more time talking to Zulaikha about the important matter.

"assalamu'alaikum" said Ammar and his mother when entering the house, heard several people including the two sisters Zulaikha answered greetings from them.

"loh, Mas Ammar? how come it's so fast?" sita Goda while descending from the top of the stairs, she is busy putting up decorations for important events tonight.

Syifa who saw Ammar only smiled thinly, she then turned her face because she still felt tight if lingering staring at the face of the man who managed to infiltrate into her heart without permission.

"the name can't stand it either, Sit!" ammar replied with a laugh made some people in the place laugh when they heard his words.

"well, I think we should hurry up Buk!" said Sita to Bu Dijah who was sitting on the sofa, the middle-aged woman just shook her head to see what Ammar and Sita did in the room.

"where is Zulaikha, Sita?" bu Dijah asked later, she had seen Zulaikha beside the house but at this time the woman was nowhere to be seen.

"we can go to his room right away, right? there's something Mom and Ammar want to say to Zulaikha!" said Mother Sejah again, Sita immediately nodded her head to answer the words of Bu Dijah.

He then drove Ammar and his mother to Zulaikha's room, saw the door was slightly open and Zulaikha was performing Dhuha prayer.

"Mother and Ammar are just waiting here, soon Ma'am must be finished," said Sita, he opened the door of Zulaikha's room to let Ammar and his mother wait in the room.

"Mother just come in, let me wait there!" Ammar pointed to a chair not far from Zulaikha's room, where he felt uncomfortable entering a woman who was not yet his wife.

After delivering Ammar and his mother, Sita returned to the guest room to continue her work while Ibu Dijah waited for Zulaikha to finish praying.

Not long ago, Zulaikha was finished with his prayer. He turned around and was a little surprised when he saw the whereabouts of Mother Colored in his room.

"Mother?" said Zulaikha while sitting next to the middle-aged woman who was sitting on the bed.

Sejah's mother smiled at Zulaikha's surprised face, she then called Ammar to enter the room because Zulaikha had finished praying.

Zulaikha frowned when he saw Ammar was also there, he began to guess about what was going on right now.

"sorry Ma'am, if our arrival makes Mbak surprised! but, there's something important that we have to tell you, Ma'am!" ammar said he was sitting on a chair right in front of Zulaikha.

"It's okay, Mom! just tell me if there's anything important." Zulaikha nodded his head to let Ammar say what he wanted to say.

Then Ammar began to tell all the things said by Ridwan, including the condition of Mother Diana who is currently still in a critical state.

"sorry if I'm sassy, ma'am! but, wouldn't it be best if we were to go there soon?" ammar said slowly, he was afraid that his words would offend Zulaikha.

Zulaikha then looked at Ammar wryly, "is it okay?" asked Zulaikha, she felt bad for Ammar and his mother.

Ammar and Ibu Dijah smiled when they heard Zulaikha's words.

"of course it's okay, son! I think you should go there, and for your application, we can do it in Indonesia," said Ibu Dijah, he held both hands Zulaikha made the woman feel moved.

Zulaikha then looked at Ammar as if he were asking the man about the matter, and Ammar returned Zulaikha's gaze with a nod of his head.

"thank you, Mom!" zulaikha said as she hugged the body of her future father-in-law, she felt truly grateful for being given a new family as well as they were.

"God, bless our every step,"
