First Drop of Vienna Water Wudhu
The meeting that made him think

That night, Vienna is left feeling anxious when she gets an invitation from one of her old friends, Diana, to attend a lavish party at an exclusive club in the city. His old friends were known for their hedonistic lifestyle, which was at odds with the changes in Viennese life that deepened in his religious beliefs. Although she felt hesitant, she decided to go to the party, wanting to see how her friends reacted to the changes in her life.

That night, the sky was filled with stars and a bright full moon was shining above. The city glittered with neon lights, and luxury vehicles lined up in front of the club. Vienna arrived there in her modest car, feeling a little awkward among the luxury cars parked around. He got into the club cautiously, trying not to look too clumsy.

Inside, the party was already in a glittering atmosphere. People laughed, drank and danced to the music. Vienna felt like it was entering a very different world from her. He saw Diana and her old friends gathered in one corner of the club, surrounded by bottles of precious drinks.

In the crowd of people having fun, he saw a woman sitting by herself on a sofa. The woman looked calm and brooding, as if isolated from the club crowd. Vienna approaches the woman and realizes that it is Sarah, one of her friends from the past.

With a careful step, Vienna sat down beside Sarah. They stared for a moment before Sarah smiled gently. "Hi, Vienna," Sarah said in a calm voice.

Vienna was relieved to hear Sarah's voice that was not as loud as other friends. "Hi, Sarah," replied Vienna. "You look different."

Sarah laughed softly. "Yes, I know. A lot has changed since we last met. How are you?"

Vienna began to talk about the changes in her life, about how she began to learn more about her religion, prayer, and seeking deeper meaning in her life. Sarah listened with care, and she could see the sincerity in Vienna's eyes.

"Very brave of you" said Sarah. "A lot of people wouldn't dare to take such a step."

Vienna nodded. "I felt like something was missing in my life before this, and now I'm trying to figure out the answer."

Sarah smile. "It was a glorious journey, Vienna. I was at the same point."

The two of them sat together for a long time, talking about religion, spirituality, and the meaning of life. Vienna felt very comfortable talking to Sarah, like she had found someone who could understand her struggle.

As the song turned louder, they finally stood up. "I'm glad to see you again, Sarah," said Vienna sincerely.

Sarah smile. "Sama, Vienna. Remember, your journey is your own. Follow your heart and keep seeking the truth."

Vienna thanked Sarah before leaving the club. He felt inspired and more confident about his spiritual journey. While stepping out of the club, he muses about this unexpected encounter and how Sarah inspires him to move forward in search of true meaning in his life.

The night at the club continued with great vigor. The pounding music and the glittering lights created an increasingly festive atmosphere. Vienna sought to remain calm, though the temptations around it grew stronger.

His old friends began to try to persuade him. Diana, one of her friends, approached her with a sly smile on her lips. "Vienna, why are you so serious? Come, drink this," he said, offering a glass of alcoholic drink.

Vienna politely declined. "Sorry, Diana. I don't drink alcohol."

Other friends also began to give temptation. They try to make him feel awkward and isolated. Some of them even tried to convince Vienna to join in the ongoing light gambling at the roulette table.

"You only have to try once, Vienna. It's so much fun!" said one of his friends, Michael, laughing loudly.

Vienna felt her heart flutter. The temptation was so strong, and he could feel the pressure from his friends. He knew that if he followed this temptation, it would betray the principles he had chosen to follow in his spiritual journey.

In his confusion, Vienna searches around for Sarah, his old friend whom he met earlier at the club. He hoped to get support from someone who understood his struggle. Finally, he found it in one corner of the club, still sitting alone.

"Sarah," Vienna spoke in an almost choked voice, "I find it very difficult here. My friends keep trying to persuade me to do things that don't fit my chosen values."

Sarah looked at Vienna with understanding. "I know it's not easy, Vienna. But remember why you chose this path. You did it to preserve your faith and integrity."

Vienna nodded, but he felt still very tempted. His gambling friends kept shouting and laughing enthusiastically, trying to persuade him to join. However, with the support of Sarah, Vienna felt stronger.

He returned to the roulette table and flatly rejected his friend's offer to join. Although his friends were somewhat disappointed, they ended up leaving him alone. Vienna was relieved by his decision, although he still felt awkward in the crowd of the club who continued to have fun.

The night continued, and temptations continued to arise. However, Vienna remained firm on its principles and remained true to the spiritual journey she had chosen. Although she felt separated from her old friends, she knew that this was the right move for her.

The next day, Vienna decided to meet with Sarah in person. They agreed to gather at a quiet cafe in a corner of the city. Vienna arrived early, sitting in a corner of the room with a notebook and a warm teacup in front of him. He pondered about the changes in his life and how the temptation of the previous night almost tempted him.

Then, Sarah walked into the cafe with a warm smile. He sat down in front of Vienna and greeted kindly. "Hi, Vienna. How do you feel after last night?"

Vienna sighed and nodded. "It's hard, but I'm trying so hard to stick to my principles."

Sarah smiled and understood. "That's a good move, Vienna. I know it's not easy, but following our beliefs is one of the most important things in life."

They ordered drinks and started talking about changes in their lives. Sarah recounts how she too once felt seduced by the worldly lifestyle. "I've been in a situation similar to yours, Vienna. I feel attracted to worldly luxuries and pleasures, like many people around me. However, the one thing that always bothered my heart was that I felt like I was missing something deeper."

Vienna nodded, feeling connected to Sarah's story. "That's how I feel too, Sarah. I feel like there's a void in my life that I can't define."

Sarah looked at Vienna with understanding. "You know, Vienna, that spiritual journey is about finding true meaning in our lives. Not just about living a religion, but also about digging deeper into who we really are."

Vienna listened with enthusiasm. "I want to know more, Sarah. I want to draw closer to God and live a more meaningful life."

Sarah smiled gently. "That's a good move. As I began to ponder and search for answers to the questions within me, I felt like there was peace growing in my heart. I studied the teachings of religion, learned about prayer, and tried to live a simpler and more meaningful life."

Vienna is interested in hearing more about Sarah's journey. "What makes you choose to live a more religious life, even though worldly temptations are so strong?"

Sarah replied, "I realize that my faith and integrity are more important than momentary pleasure. I also feel that God is the source of all happiness and peace. And when I live my life according to my religious values, I feel closer to Him."

Their conversation continues, delving deeper into religion, spirituality, and the meaning of life. Vienna felt lucky to have someone like Sarah who could inspire him and give him a deeper look at his spiritual journey.

When the two of them finally left the cafe, Vienna felt more confident and motivated to move forward in her search for true meaning in her life. She knows that this journey will be a challenge, but with the support of Sarah and her own beliefs, she is ready to face it.
