Her.. A Choice For Me
BE STUNNED

Ba'da dawn. As Mahen was listening to the morning dhikr from his laptop, he remembered Naya.

" Assalamu'alaikum, good morning. Naya can I ask you to write me a morning recitation? so that I can easily memorize it ". Naya's phone is still inactive because the message sent by Mahen still has no report read.

" I pick up at 7, we have breakfast outside and then leave immediately ". Send it again.

" Wa'alaikumussalam's. I'll wait for a friend at 8, he'll take my order, brother breakfast at the hotel ". Reply Naya.

" Okay, don't forget what I asked you for ".

" I brought you a copy of mine, I read it every morning and maghrib ".

" Thank God, thank you ".

Before long, a message from ka Amir went into Naya's phone.

" Neng, Abah's new year's night ngadain istighotsah home, you go home yaa ".

" Yes ka. I went straight home because the store also closed at 6 pm ".

" Take good care of my dear sister ".

" Sure.. ". Ka Amir, I'm sorry I didn't say I was leaving, I'm sorry... I promise to take good care of myself. Inner Naya felt guilty about not being honest with her beloved sister.

At 07.30 Naya was ready in front of the boarding gate waiting for the friend who brought her order. He looks fresh with a yellow turmeric knit shirt and loose black cotton pants. His hair he let loose just like that. Shortly the friend came along with Mahen's car which was seen entering the Soka boarding area.

Mahen got off right after Naya's transaction with her friend was over. Naya hurriedly went inside to pick up a backpack that contained only 1 change of clothes and her personal equipment.

" Are you ready? I said to Ms. Rahma first ".

" I've permission earlier, I didn't bring anything nie yaa, as you said ". Naya Reveal.

" Yes, no need. I'll say a moment ". Mahen then walked to the back house for permission on Ms Rahma because of the possibility of bringing Naya home late tonight or maybe tomorrow morning.

A little while later, Mahen came out of the back house accompanied by Bu Rahma. " No, be careful. Son Mahen, do not be disappointed right Mother you know, Naya is the son of Mother as well, take care of each other yaa you guys do not do anything there ". Message from Ms. Rahma.

" Yes Ma'am, Naya said yes ". Naya answered while kissing Rahma's hand.

Mahen opened the backseat door for Naya to enter immediately.

" It's so pretty ". His whisper was slow as Naya approached. He entered soon after Naya sat in the back seat.

" Is Abang ko here? sono gih in front, Mr. Rey kasian himself you know ".

" Rey is a regular single ". Sahut Mahen relax.

" Rey Road, see what you are? ". Mahen saw Rey steal a look at her girl and he didn't like it.

" Uhuk.. Good morning Miss ".

" Morning Mr. Rey ". Reply Naya.

" Who was it? ". Mahen asked when he saw a man with Naya when he arrived at the boarding house.

" Friends, I told you someone was gonna take my order ".

" What order? ".

" Confidential ". Said Naya while removing the moisturizer for her face, earlier she forgot she had not had time to wear skincare.

" It's beautiful, don't want to be seen later the glass is embarrassed ". Mahen started nosy.

Naya didn't respond, "Oiya, this is the copy I said this morning. You can read it, right? ". He brought a piece of paper.

"..................... Is that right? ". Mahen read the lines of the Quran and dhikr was written smoothly and correctly.

" Alhamdulillah, can ya, cool maa sya Allah, may Istiqomah practice yaa ".

" Doain I am ".

Naya just smiled, a smile that made Mahen's heart unsettled. Because the journey is still long, Naya chose to put on a headset and close her eyes.

" You really like to sleep, it's not good you love to use a headset while sleeping ". Mahen took off one headset from Naya's ear and stuck it to her ear.

"......... murottal... You are memorizing this? ". Ask me mahen amazed.

" He em.. Again learning ".

Finally, throughout the journey all that was heard was the sound of their breathing. Both of them dissolve in a peaceful atmosphere because they listen to the chanting of holy verses.

An hour and a half later they arrived at a luxury hotel and resort area where the event took place. Rey rushed to take care of the registration of the arrival of her boss who was included in the VIP guest tonight. 15 minutes later, the room boy approached them and drove to the room that had been provided by the event committee. " Please ladies and gentlemen Mahendra, this is your room, on the right, Mr. Rey's room.. If nothing is needed anymore, excuse me ". Said the room boy who drove them.

Naya looked at Mahen in surprise, "Our one room? "

" So, this is your room, me and Rey next door. Take a break later in the day we have an event ". Mahen pamit headed for his room.

Just as Mahen was leaving, Naya stepped in, but the cold suddenly grabbed her nape and a fishy smell pierced her nose. He knew something was wrong in this room. Not Naya, you won't see anything here. Don't listen to them. Naya took a deep breath, then tried ablution and istighfar. As he walked out of the bathroom, he was startled with a black figure of fishy smell floating and spinning above his head and the figure slowly descended, crouching in the corner of the room while staring at the clingy Naya.

" Aaaahhh, ashghfirullah... Aaabbbaaa.. ". Naya immediately ran scared out of the room towards Mahen's room and frantically knocked on his door.

" Abaaaaaang, bukaaa, hiks.. bukaaaaaa quickly openaaaa Abaaang ". Naya hysterical.

" Naya, what's wrong with you? ". Mahen asked when he opened the room door, Naya immediately ran and hid behind his body while sticking her head on Mahen's back. " Hiks, afraid, it was in the room that a figure with a body smelling of blood flew over me, he looked at me, his face... ". Naya was crying in fear.

" Rey, please call the hotel manager here ". Pinta Mahen took Naya to sit down and have a drink.

" Aaaahhhh, he's here... Brother, hiks kafirttt, I takuuuuttt. his face, his body is a lot of blood ". Naya got back up from the chair and cried hysterically. This time he was already tightly hugging Mahen from behind. Mahen felt Naya's body tremble violently, but Mahen did not dare to pull Naya in his arms until Rey came with the hotel manager.

" Sir Manager Rusli, Naya saw something in our room, can you tell me what happened there? Naya's never been like this before ". Mahen looked a little emotional this time.

" I'm sorry sir, we're waiting for the smart guy in a minute ". The manager is afraid.

" Explain what you mean ". This time it was Rey who spoke with great pressure. While Mahen still calms Naya who does not want to open her eyes and still closes her nose.

" Fear Brother, stink of ". Naya still sobbed and just repeated this sentence until the smart person who was waiting came and then started a procession that was not understood by the three of them.

" Sir, his wife has six sence yes, I've wanted to move her many times but she's hard to show up. Father's wife amazing can pull him up ".

" Take care of this right away. Naya was never like this, what do you mean ". Mahen's tone was full of emotion, he did not like the girl in indigo by the man.

" Your wife, has a strong positive aura, - She is asking your wife for help, because she is tormented. He's a victim of p*leceh*n and ancient violence and his axis in the room earlier. He's all that's left of this building, the others I've moved ". Answer the old man. The hotel manager apologized to Naya and replaced their room with a better one as compensation. After things calmed down again, Mahen tried to persuade Naya back.

" Let me take you to a new room, so you can rest before we go ".

" Want to stay here, I'm still afraid ". Naya was still trembling.

" Yes you're here, I'm there "

" Come with me? Honey, I can't guarantee you stay calm if you come with me, you see I'm feeling bad.. ".

Naya was only silent with her face lowered, Naya cried, this was the first time she saw a creature with a terrible appearance. His hand is still holding the mahen shirt making it go awry.

" Boss, double bed replacement room. You can go there with Miss, let me here ". Rey came with good news.

Mahen rubbed Naya's head slowly. " Let's move rooms, sorry yes I was just worried about seeing you gini, I want to hug but can't because you're going to fight me later ". Mahen pulled slowly on Naya's wrist.

" Have the dhuha yet? or go straight to sleep first, I'm not going anywhere ". Connect Mahen after they're in the new room.

" Tduha is already in the boarding house, want to sleep for a while ". Naya immediately ablaze, before long Naya heard howling prayers until she slowly weakened and she fell asleep. Tok tok, the door of the room was knocked on by someone and it turned out that Rey was coming.

" Boss, here's your shirt and Miss. MUA comes after dzuhur and maghrib later ".

" Descend your voice Rey, Naya is sleeping ". Mahen said while whispering.

The alarm of the dzuhur Adhan awakens Naya, when she does not see Mahen in the room, naya returns hysterically, "Aaaabaaaaang ". Her screams were tight while sobbing. Mahen who heard Naya's cry rushed out of the toilet.

" Ssttt I'm here, out of ablution because I want to pray dzuhur. Come on, take ablution first keep praying and we go out for a while ".

" ...... ". Naya followed Mahen's advice and they prayed together. While they were still praying, there was a knock on the door, Mahen got up and folded his prayer mat and opened the door.

" Excuse me Mr. Mahen, I'm the keyko who will help Miss. Ready already? "

" Come in ".

" Dear, let's get ready. I went to Rey's room and I changed my clothes and I'll come here again, ok ". Mahen said passing out of the room. Naya just silently nodded.

30 Minutes later.

" Miss, that's pretty. I'm ayu from there, plus wear make up flawless, the more okay bangeeeeeettttt ". Say keyko amazed while tidying Naya's hair with hair spray and in the form of a little volume. Keyko asks Naya to stand up to tidy up the kebaya cloth that Naya uses to adjust to her heels so as not to interfere when walking. At the same time, the door of the room was opened by Mahen.

" dear................ ". Mahen did not blink, saying nothing but his eyes that seemed to adore Naya. Spe-so-na. Real pretty. Inner Mahen.

" Brother, my hair doesn't need anything, right? gini is enough ". Ask Naya.

Mahen did not answer Naya, instead giving her instructions to keyko. He was too focused on the girl. " Please on tidy yaa mba keyko, he's been very..... Beautiful ".

" Agreed Sir.. Miss is perfect ".

Mahen unceasingly looked at Naya who was wearing a green kebaya doff that was very fitting on her body. The fabric is in line with his shirt, the black hair of a boat that is left untouched, his wrist is still wearing his gift bracelet last month, Mahen is happy, very happy. Until all the preparations are done and they both leave the room to the hotel lobby to attend a flush event at the Wabup residence.

" Rey, keep your eyes on me ". Mahen gives Rey a warning as she opens the car door for her boss.

" Cautiously ". Mahen's hand protected Naya's head from being hit when she was about to get into the car. 30 minutes drive to the event venue. Immediately Mahen's arrival invites the attention of guests who have been present because of the presence of a beautiful girl beside him.

" Yuk entered, Mahen took Naya's hand ".

" Mister Mahendra, Miss Ainnaya, forgive what happened this morning beyond our control ". Wabup's personal assistant greeted them.

" Naya was a little bit in shock but now it's better, thanks ". Mahen confirmed his emotions.

" I'm sorry once again.. Let's please enjoy the dish while the bride is still a flush procession ".

" Sister, his son sir wabup adopted son huh? ko was like his mother, so much like ". Naya said later.

" You see what else? wabup's wife is just one darling ".

" Sister, the mother looked here. Smile kindly with me, he said to send greetings to Saraswati, happy message ".

" Naya, you don't scare me ".

" Sister, I don't know why this is? I didn't ask for any of this, this morning was my first experience.. If you're scared, and think I'm weirdo ".

" No, baby, no, I'm not going to leave you, period ".

" So real brother still wants to win with me? I'm weird ". Ask Naya lirih.

" Go on, what do you want to say ".

" i... Also scared actually. But I came to accept and face this because Brother said this morning: This could be a blessing if you use it well or become calamitous if you glorify and abuse it ".

" Naya, I know you can. We face it together and find a way so that this can be suppressed and not too disturbing you. Ok? ".

" yes.. I want ".

" You want to delete that message earlier? we approach Saraswati or wabup later ".

" What does Brother think? "

" Dear trust, until you let your responsibility be paid off ".

" Yes ".

Mahen picked up Naya some snacks and drinks while the bride-to-be had not yet come out to greet the guests. Until the moment Naya awaited. Saraswati felt not far from where Naya was standing.

" Saraswati sister, I'm sorry can I have a moment? I Naya wanted to deliver that message.......... ".

" really? can you see my real mother? is she pretty Naya? can I have your number? we'll talk later, who are you coming with, baby? ". Saraswati asked enthusiastically while whispering.

" Sister. uh. where was that.. I came with.. "

" He's my lover Saras ". Mahen answered them both.

" Oh my God Mahen, this is your candidate who was in his private party young master Rendy? Beautiful, still young. Naya you want to be with him anyway? ".

" No need to gossip Saras. Congratulations, may you be happy and lasting until His heaven, aamiin ".

" Dear, this Saras my college friend used to owe me the same time in college because of his hobby clubbing hahaha. Now you know the reason I brought you here, yes make a call to him this because if I'm the one who collect, he continues to creep ". Mahen laughing.

" S*alan you Mahen. If Papa knows I can run out, anyway I will return the favor, just calm down ". Say it while whispering.

" Naya, let's talk later baby. You're so cute, I look at it ". Saraswati hugged Naya tightly.

" Hen, take care of me.. Naya from today so adek me you know ". Saraswati.

After talking to Saraswati, Mahen invited Naya back to the hotel because she had to prepare for the core event later that night.

All the way home, they returned quietly busy with their own thoughts.

" Naya, you are easy to love by many people .. May your heart be mine ". Mahen glanced at Naya at a glance, he fell asleep again, slowly his fingers were linked with Naya's fingers and grasped her tightly as if afraid of loss.
