IKHTIAR AKMAL LOVE
BE BATHED

Akmal smiled to himself after Cyra's departure. There was a sense within him that he could not explain in words. Because it can be close to Cyra like before.

"Sister Mirza. Pray Akmal. I hope Akmal can melt the heart of the woman he was before he knew her. Akmal loved her first."

Akmal's words made mama Jian and the aunts who were still peeping at him successfully opened their mouths very wide.

"So! All this time? Mas Akmal?"

Bi Darmi's speech was immediately taken by all the aunts who were there.

"We agree with Mbak," said bi Tukiyah.

Mama Jian was completely at a loss for words with eyes that kept staring at Akmal from his hiding place.

"Akmal will take care of him. And Akmal was grateful that Brother had allowed Akmal to marry Cyra," Akmal said again, which was still heard clearly by the aunts and mama Jian.

Akmal spoke not too loudly. But they could all hear clearly what Akmal was saying.

After being content to speak for yourself. Akmal went straight into his room to rest his body.

While mama Jian went straight outside from his hiding place towards the living room with a face expression like a dazed person. Similarly, the aunts who immediately continue their work that is slightly delayed.

The next night when dinner time comes. Rafiq's father who went all day to the Foundation was very surprised when he saw Akmal enter the dining room with such a hand condition.

"Yes Allah. Akmal why are you?"

Father Rafiq's face really looked worried and surprised as well.

"For him Dad. For the sake of my grandson and beloved daughter-in-law. Akmal is hurt like this."

Akmal's words successfully made mama Jian stare at Cyra who was holding baby Zahwa.

"What do you mean Akmal?" Rafiq's father didn't understand at all.

"Emmm. Cyra almost got hit by Dad's car. And Akmal's brother came to Cyra's aid" Cyra explained.

"Astaghfirullah's. There are things that always happen to our family."

"But you're okay, aren't you Cyra?"

With a slow nod. Cyra also answered. "Alhamdulillah Father. Cyra's fine."

"Then the car that hit you was how was Cyra?"

Before Cyra answered. Akmal had already let out his voice first. "Dad just calm down. Everything's been taken care of by his friend Hamzah."

"Hamzah's friend?"

"Yes Dad. Because it just so happened that Hamzah was at the boutique and immediately helped Akmal handle this."

"May we get caught soon. Or at least we give understanding in a familial way. Not to repeat the mistake twice."

Akmal nodded in agreement with what his father was saying. Same with Cyra.

"Your hand hurts Akmal?" mama Jian asked. Then he continued his words. "Don't want to ask Cyra for help to feed you?"

The temptation of mama Jian successfully made a tinge of red color on Cyra's cheeks visible. But fortunately, Cyra wears the niqab. So it will not be seen if he is currently feeling ashamed of them.

"Well? It could also be your idea. But Mama and Dad would you allow it?"

Akmal's remarks made Rafiq's real father want to match Akmal with Cyra to be confused himself want to answer how.

I'd say yes, ashamed of Cyra. I want to say no, but she wants to see Akmal getting closer to Cyra.

But Rafiq's father's confusion was thrown away, when he got a soft kick of his foot from mama Jian from under the table.

"Oh can. Can do it, if Cyra wants to."

Akmal blinked one eye at Cyra, as his mother and father gave them permission.

Want not. Cyra finally wants to feed Akmal. Because after all, Akmal did have a little trouble in feeding food into his mouth. "All right," said Cyra.

"Eh! Let Brother move in that chair. You stay there, "prevent Akmal seeing Cyra will move to sit next to her.

Cyra just nodded. And finally Akmal sat in the chair that Mirza usually sat in.

Cyra immediately gave baby Zahwa to Akmal's lap slowly.

In the eyes of mama Jian and Rafiq's father. Akmal and Cyra look like a pair of harmonious and happy families.

"What do you want to eat?" ask Cyra.

Akmal immediately mentioned the food he wanted to eat. After that, Cyra immediately fed Akmal with great attention.

"This is the delicious tumben cuisine. Or because I ate it, huh?" Akmal said with a super sweet smile.

"The taste of the cooking is the same as usual," mama Jian replied.

"You're the one who's having fun being bribed by Cyra,"

Akmal immediately laughed out loud because of being insinuated by his father.

"You eat too, son. Remember you are meenyusui. If Akmal just let him starve," mama Jian said.

Akmal sulked spoiled in front of them all while whining to Cyra. "But you're definitely not going to starve Brother, are you, baby?"

"Hey! are you sweet! I want to kick you!"

Akmal was not afraid to hear his father pitched like that to him. But he laughed even more.

"It looks like Akmal needs to be called ustadz to give him his meruqyah, Dad."

"Well, that's right Ma. I agree."

"It just so happens that I know ustadz who can meruqyah," said Rafiq's father again.

"Humpts!"

Akmal is so. Success made Cyra smile amusedly look at him.

After dinner, Cyra filled her stomach. They all parted with their own goals.

Cyra chooses to go into the room with baby Zahwa. Akmal also went inside his own room to rest his body.

So did mama Jian and Rafiq's father who entered their own room. Because mama Jian wanted to tell me about what he heard earlier between Akmal and Cyra.

Rafiq's father was really very surprised to hear the story from his wife. If it turns out to be two boys they love the same woman.

"This story really made Dad shocked, Mama."

"Mama, Dad. Who heard it directly from Akmal's mouth."

"We have sinned terribly against Akmal. Because it has made Akmal resist the feeling all this time when he saw Mirza making out with Cyra."

Mama Jian nodded in agreement justifying the words of the husband.

"about. Mirza already knows not yet. That Akmal loves Cyra too?"

"Come Ma. But it doesn't seem" replied Rafiq's father.

"How can you be sure of that?"

"Because I know how Mirza is. He would have preferred to give up instead of seeing his sister hurt or grieved by it."

Again mama Jian nodded confirming Rafiq's father's words.

"Now we have to unite them together Ma. But without anyone's knowledge. Including the two of them or our besan."

"Yes Dad. Mama agrees. May our good intentions be made easy by God."

Rafiq's father directly maried mama Jian's words with great earnestness.

Even though Cyra is a widow. There will be a lot of men waiting to get it.

Before any other man tried to approach her. Akmal wants Cyra's hand soon. Likewise with Rafiq's father and mama Jian who did not want to until Akmal lost to get Cyra to be his wife.
