IKHTIAR AKMAL LOVE
VISIT TO THE TOMB

A few days after the seven-day event and her aqiqah baby Zahwa, Cyra often daydreams to herself and muses to herself, without much talking at all to the people of the house.

Cyra's gloomy attitude like that, was noticed once by the residents of the house of Father Rafiq, especially by Rafiq's father himself, Mama Jian let alone Akmal.

Just like this time, this morning like five days ago, Cyra is often pensive every morning while drying baby Zahwa alone under the soothing morning sun.

When Cyra was greeted by the passing Aunties, she just smiled, nodded or answered with just that, and it continued to the next day.

Coincidentally today is Sunday, at the house of Father Rafiq there is a complete formation, there is Father Rafiq, Mama Jian and Akmal. And at this moment, they were all busy with their respective activities.

Rafiq's father was busy taking care of the plants with his workers, Mama Jian was busy with baby Zahwa, while watching Rafiq's father, while Cyra, who was the only one of them, choosing to go back into his room and keep quiet did nothing there.

Akmal who just finished bathing, he then went down to join his family, but he found only to his two parents without Cyra.

" Cyra where's Ma, huh,? ko she doesn't look alone???" asked Akmal.

" It looks like he went inside his room again" Mama Jian replied.

" Has Aiza taken a shower??" asked Akmal.

" It's been ," replied Mama Jian and Akmal just oh ria.

When Mama Jian saw Akmal turning around wanting to leave, Mama Jian immediately asked him.

" Where are you going Akmal??" asked Mama Jian.

" Want to meet Cyra" Akmal replied.

" Look out, don't mess with Cyra,!! remember Abi Rashid's message, if you're not a mahram to Cyra '" said Mama Jian.

" Ma in a moment, just calm down" Akmal replied, after which he passed from before the mother.

Mama Jian was a little confused by Akmal's reply, which said in a moment. However, Mama Jian did not want to take the dizziness of what Akmal had said to him.

When Akmal wanted to see Cyra, he suddenly accidentally met her midway up the stairs.

" Cyra,!! where are you going?" asked Akmal.

" You've been crying, huh??" asked Akmal again who accidentally saw Cyra's eyes look red.

Cyra looked down and hid her sadness in front of Akmal.

Akmal tried to get close right in front of Cyra, then he raised Cyra's face using his finger through his forehead.

" Tell Brother, why are these beautiful eyes crying again??" asked Akmal in a soft and sweet voice.

Not wanting to get to zina eyes, Cyra immediately turned her eyes and walked to the edge of the stairs, holding on to the edge of the stairs.

" Cyra just misses Mirza's sister, Sister," replied Cyra's plan.

" It was very desirable for Cyra to see Kak Mirza in a dream, but why did Cyra hope not to materialize" Cyra said again.

" Pray Cyra, before you are under the influence of Satan. For in fact, prolonged grief is an attitude that is disliked by God" Akmal advises.

" Will you come with Brother to go somewhere.? Who knows in that place you can vent your longing with Kak Mirza," Akmal said to make Cyra reflex turn around to look at him.

" Where is my sister??" asked Cyra.

" To the tomb of Mirza's sister" Akmal replied.

" Cyra would love to, sister, let's take Cyra there please" Cyra said again.

" Alright, you get ready, let Aiza, Brother take care of her" Akmal replied and Cyra nodded in agreement.

Cyra turned to go back to her room again. While Akmal was the same, turned around to return to where the mother and baby Zahwa were.

" Baby Zahwa, where do you want you to take Akmal???" asked Mama Jian and made Rafiq's father, who heard him, come closer to him.

Akmal then explained to his parents about his words to Cyra earlier, and Rafiq's father and Mama Jian agreed to go.

Long story short, Cyra who has finished getting ready, baby Zahwa has also changed clothes, now the three of them including Akmal are already in the car owned by Akmal.

Before getting into the car, Cyra tried to ask permission to Mama Jian and Rafiq's father, but Cyra was a little surprised, when it turned out to the two in-laws already knew in advance where he was going.

" So Cyra wanted to ask permission, but Mama and Dad already knew, Brother did you say the same to them???" asked Cyra.

While running his car, Akmal replied. " Yes, my sister had told Mama and Dad about where we were going" Akmal and Cyra replied.

For this time, Cyra was sitting in the passenger seat in front, because somehow, she was more comfortable sitting in front while holding baby Zahwa.

While on the way to Mirza's grave, Akmal kept trying to make Cyra joke and make her smile. That's all, just that Akmal did it, so that Cyra doesn't look sad anymore.

Finally, after a while on the journey, Cyra and Akmal arrived at the tomb Mirza was located.

Cyra sat down next to her husband's grave, staring at a tombstone bearing the name of the husband she loved so much.

Before praying and reciting, Akmal and Cyra try to greet Mirza for a moment.

" Sister" said Akmal.

" Akmal has invited Cyra and baby Aiza to come here, is Brother happy??? " said Akmal again.

" Hopefully Brother up there can see our presence" Akmal said.

" Abi Assalamu'alaikum" Cyra said.

" Umi came with Aiza, she's beautiful isn't she??" Cyra said, holding back her tears.

While Akmal, continued to look towards Cyra who was strengthening his heart.

" Hopefully Abi is not angry with Umi, because Umi has not been able to be a good Umi for Aiza" Cyra said.

" Wish Umi yes Abi, help Umi from up there, so that Umi can be a good mother for Aiza, and can also guide her to be a good child like Abi wishes ," cyra said again as she shed her tears.

Akmal who saw Cyra crying, he tried to stop Cyra's words, so that he did not get dissolved in his grief again.

" Cyra, already, let's pray yuk," Akmal said and Cyra immediately nodded slowly.

Akmal then led the way of prayer, they recited and offered prayers, so that Mirza would be calmer up there.

Until suddenly, there was a drop of water coming down from the sky wetting their bodies. And that's a sign, if the rain will soon fall, even though the sky does not look cloudy at all.

Akmal who was sprightly, immediately ended his prayer reading, then he took off the jacket he wore for his umbrella to Cyra who was carrying Aiza. And after walking quite a distance, finally, Cyra and Akmal arrived in their car.
