HIJRAH LOVE
Promises

I was happy when I heard the sound of the baby coming from behind that tense room. And it feels like I would like to meet soon to greet the tiny baby who has just been born in the world. Even I was curious as to what kind of cute baby is and the gender of a girl or a boy?

Soon the curiosity within me was answered already, when a nun brought the baby and gave it to Yulian for immediate adultery. And before Yulian did, he looked at me for a moment and then, I nodded slowly, agreeing to do so with that tiny, innocent baby.

"Umi, is Umi confident in Umi's decision? What if Umi gets hurt?"

I also gave a smile to the Light who approached me with a question from his lips. And slowly I made the Light understand and reassure him that I never regretted and grieved later. For to me this is the destiny of my life and the household I am living with Yulian. Where our love is being tested for loyalty, patience and understanding.

"Light, Umi knows you're worried about Umi. But, Umi was happy with Umi's decision. So, you don't worry anymore." I looked at the face of the Light with a stick.

"But you must not deceive Allah, Aisha. Because God knows everything, including your wounded heart." Sela Arumi, who slowly approached me while together with the Light.

"I didn't mean to deceive God, Arumi. But I believe in destiny. If my decision is the destiny of my life, then I will accept it with sincerity. But if, then, God wills otherwise is outside of me." I stared at Arumi who was standing in front of me.

I also waved away leaving Arumi and Light who were still standing in front of the operating room. I feel unable if Arumi keeps trying to break my decision. And to forget that, I busied myself with preparing everything necessary for Yulian's wedding to Khadijah. Even I prepared some makeup tools to apply makeup Khadijah before the marriage contract took place.

"O Allah, if You bless them, send out everything. Aamiin's." I also assure my prayers.

I continued the steps that had stalled because waiting for the sisters to come to me who are currently together with fairies and also the pengupulu who is ready to help the wedding of Yulian with Khadijah. Because, we had to wait for Khadijah to wake up after a few hours of Caesarean section he was undergoing.

The moment we were waiting for came, where a nun came to all of us who had been waiting in the waiting room. I can't wait to meet Khadijah, who will soon be Yulian's second wife. Which makes me have to be sincere to share love and husband. However, it turned out that I was wrong after thinking long ago that what I decided was right.

"Excuse me! Can I meet with Miss Aisyah and Mr. Yulian for a moment?"

Immediately I and Yulian stared at each other. Even I wonder in my heart, what is it? Andwhy? What the hell's going on? The other questions were so tangled, that they filled the space of my brain. And to find out, I went with Yulian to see the nun. When I came face to face with the sister, Arjuna suddenly approached me and Yulian. Then, he stated that Khadijah wanted to meet with me and Yulian.

"Has Khadijah been sober?"

"Umi and Abi just met the woman. Because that's his wish at this moment." Arjuna looked at me and Yulian sharply.

Without a second thought, Yulian and I entered the room, where Khadija was lying limp with some medical devices that were still stuck in some parts of her body. And when I got in with Yulian, Khadija smiled at us for a welcome. Even his face was still paled after the surgery he had just done.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Khadijah. Congratulations, you've become a mother." I smile.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Khadijah. I only want to say once in a lifetime to you. Will you be the wife of my children?"

Suddenly Yulian uttered a love sentence to Khadijah as a sign of a proposal. And I must be ready to hear every sentence of love spoken by Yulian other than myself. However, there Khadijah rejected Yulian's proposal. Which made me look at each other with Yulian, because we didn't understand what Khadija wanted post-surgery. Even Khadijah's request made me and Yulian feel confused.

"Forgive me, Aisyah and Yu-lian. Ta-pi, I can't accept Yulian's proposal. Although I actually wanted it after I looked into Yulian's eyes full of love." Reveal Khadijah in a stammering tone.

"Why Khadijah? Didn't you agree to it? And I've prepared everything so that your marriage to Mas Yulian is carried out immediately. But why did you reject him?"

"Yes, Khadijah. I promise I will try to be fair to you later. So, don't worry about it." Yulian looked at Khadijah.

When some questions were asked, Khadija answered them with a smile. After that, Khadijah's hand slowly grabbed my hand then, grabbed Yulian's hand and put it together. Which makes me feel confused about what he's doing. Not long after, Khadijah asked me and Yulian to make a promise to each other.

"I know Aisyah, that your intention is good to keep me from the trust of my Mother Almarhumah. But it's wrong, because I don't want to be in the middle of your house with Yulian. I am a woman who is no longer holy, Aisha. And I feel unworthy to be in the midst of your family. So, don't mess with your family that's full of heaven." Khadijah looked at me and Yulian in turn.

"No, Khadijah. We are the same in the eyes of God, as His people. We also have many sins. Who will be forgiven his sins by God if he truly repents." Julian explained as he should.

"Aisha_Yulian, will you promise me something?"

"Promise? What promise, Khadija?"

I wonder what Khadijah will say to me and Yulian. I don't know, what promise did Khadijah mean?

"I want you to promise not to part. And you must stay together until death to pick you up later. You guys want to, promise me?"

For a moment I and Yulian looked back at each other. Digesting every word spoken by Khadijah and deciphering what he meant. And why did Khadija ask me to make that promise? I really don't understand.
