I'm a Qualified Old Virgin
Approves

"Syifa, wait!" exclaim Nafisa.

"What's up, Sa?" syifa asked in surprise as Nafisa called out to her.

Nafisa got out of the car and walked closer towards Syifa. "Fa, if you have a taste for my brother, just tell abi the truth. If you keep each other's taste, Abi will definitely succumb to you!" mutilate. "I'll go home first, yeah. Assalamualaikum!"

Nafisa rubbed Syifa's arm slowly, then moved back into the car.

"Waalaikumussalam" replied Syifa lirih.

The car that Nafisa was riding passed away. Syifa also moved in with a giant step towards her boarding room.

As he opened the door of his boarding room he saw his mother sitting silent as if thinking of something. Syifa went inside and approached her mother.

“What do Mama think?” ask Syifa.

“A few days ago Mama had a dream, Fa. Mama dreams when she will leave for shophouse Umm Syarifah calls Mama to stop by her house. Mama complied and did not remember if she was gone. He gave Mama something on Mama's palm. And, Mama grasped it without knowing what she was giving. Is it possible that the dream is a sign of this yes, Fa. Mama really did not expect ummi Syarifah to want this!” Rosa started to sob again.

He used to admire the figure of Imron when he first came to the Arab village. It is natural that he admired Imron because at that time he did not know if the man had a wife. All he knew was Imron, the man who had helped him and met with the ummi Fatimah. The owner of a melodious voice that vibrates the heart through the voice of his adhan until his heart is moved to convert to Islam.

However, when he finds out that Imron has a wife, Rosa immediately throws away her feelings for the man. He knew that he could not have more feelings for the man. The Sharifah was so good to him. Syarifah also kindly gave her used clothes that are still worth wearing. Treat her like a sister and a friend to her. Imron's extended family is also one of the kind families who protect her when everyone berates her for being found pregnant out of wedlock and almost kicked out of the village. He felt as if he had found a brother in his new home.

Syifa only fell silent on hearing that, then hugged her mother to calm down. Without wanting to say anything because his mind was still confused by everything that had happened lately to him. It takes time to digest everything.

The night was getting late, but his eyes were still reluctant to shut. He was still thinking about the words of Abi Imron, the advice of Nafisa and also the story of his mother. He also recalled the words of Ilham before leaving for Cairo at the time, who asked him to wait for him. Until yesterday he was still thinking of rejecting Arjuna's proposal and waiting until Ilham returned.

However, with the application of Imron's abi to the mother made him have to rethink everything that happened to him. If he said about Ilham to his mother he was sure his mother would have chosen to step down and rejected the proposal of Abi Imron. But if he is silent it means he has disappointed Ilham. Maybe Inspiration will hate him.

Suddenly he felt the movement of his mother. Syifa hurriedly closed her eyes pretending to be asleep. He didn't want to worry his mother if she knew he couldn't sleep. There was a movement from the side. Apparently her mother woke up. Not long before the bathroom door closed. Syifa looked at the clock on her phone screen. The clock shows at one o'clock. He closed his eyes and began to sleep.

“Yes Allah, if Imron is the soul mate you have destined for me. So make it easy for us to get to the sacred bond that you are pleased with. Guide your servant to be a better person in the future, O Allah.”

Right at that moment Syifa said-sayup heard a soft mutter that his mother said in her prayer after performing her evening prayer. Her tears just dripped from the corner of her eyes hearing the mother's prayer. Perhaps he could break the beautiful hope that was spoken from the mother's prayer.

No, I can't be selfish. My mom deserves to be happy and this is the time. I'll give up on you for mama. I have a long way to go and there are still plenty of opportunities to get. Brother Ilham, please forgive me! Shifa murmured in the heart.

“Ma, Syifa agreed if Mama married abi Imron!” he said with lirih. There was a slight pain in his chest as he uttered that sentence from his mouth.

“Syifa...., you sure you don't mind Mama getting married?” ask Rosa.

Syifa shook her head. “Syifa will be happy to see Mama also happy. Especially a good guy. Syifa sure abi can take care of Mama and make Mama happy!”

“Thank you for the support, dear. Without your blessing, Mama will not accept Syifa's proposal. You are the most important to me, Mama!” rosa says.

True Syifa's guess, if Syifa said about Ilham, surely his mother would reject the proposal. Her mother would do anything for her happiness. So if Syifa does not want to succumb to this, it means that she is selfish because she does not give the opportunity for her mother to be happy.

While on campus Syifa again met Nafisa who was then after performing prayers.

“Assalamaicum, Syifa. How?” ask Nafisa straight to the point.

“Waalaikumussalam, Sa. It just so happens to meet you here. About the application of Abi Imron, insyaaAllah mama received it,” said Syifa lirih.

“You sure, Fa? Then what about yourself?” asked Nafisa a little surprised.

“I also agree. My mom's happiness is my happiness too. Later we're really gonna be brothers, right, Sa. Of course I will be very happy,” Syifa said while smiling bitterly.

Nafisa was silent for a moment. He looked into Syifa's teary eyes as he spoke his words. Nafisa was sure there was sadness that Syifa did not want to show her. He breathed heavily trying to understand. Syifa must have chosen to give up on her mother.

“If your mama has agreed, I will pass this on to abi. The plan abi will hold a simple ijab qobul after the return of Ilham bang. You know for yourself, ummi hasn't been long. So Abi does not want to hold a large-scale event. There is only a small tasyakuran inviting relatives and close neighbors,” said Nafisa.

“So, the wedding will be held after Kak Ilham returns? Why not as soon as you can, Sa?” Syifa seemed surprised to know that. If Ilham was present before the wedding day Syifa worried that her marriage would fail.

“Iya, Fa. Why?” asked Nafisa who was so confused to see Syifa's reaction.

“Sa, please please don't ever say anything to abi or my mama about Kak Ilham's feelings for me. And, should the wedding take place as soon as possible, no problem even though only ijab qobul only!”
