IKHTIAR AKMAL LOVE
THREE YEARS LATER

Days have passed since the engagement, and it doesn't feel like Cyra and Mirza were engaged about three years ago.

It's not fast, but it looks like they were engaged yesterday, and for the past three years, neither Akmal nor Cyra's friends, no one knew that Cyra was engaged to a man.

Akmal himself also never knew or saw the brother of the road with an actress even if only once.

So Akmal does not know, if the girl he likes has been betrothed to the Brother he loves very much.

Strange but real, indeed in fact Akmal up to three years does not know, what is the name even the face of the prospective sister-in-law, other than always never answered by Mirza if he was asking, but always never answered by Mirza if he was asking, Akmal himself also does not like to interfere with the affairs of his brother.

Akmal himself still keeps his feelings of joy for Cyra in his heart.

Like the word, he loved in silence, but always monitored Cyra's activities secretly, because Akmal felt embarrassed if it was discovered by his students or other lecturers, because Akmal, even the important people at the University where he teaches.

Cyra himself sometimes feels strange with the attitude of the Lecturer, Akmal, but Cyra does not want to take a headache, because he does not want to feel baper, because it is very bad for the health of his heart, especially if she is engaged to another man.

Cyra often finds Akmal staring at her with an unusual gaze, and if Cyra sees Akmal that way, she chooses to avoid sinning.

Just like this time, Cyra who is now sitting on a campus garden chair alone, while reading a novel that she likes, suddenly his attention was diverted towards his cellphone which rang with a moderate voice.

Seeing that, Cyra stops reading it to receive a call from someone who turns out to be from Mirza.

" Hello Assalamu'alaikum Brother," said Cyra.

" Wa'alaikumussalam my future wife" answered Mirza.

Cyra always smiles if Mirza calls her that.

" What did you call Cyra??" asked Cyra.

" Kangen, I miss you so much" Mirza replied.

" We haven't seen each other in two weeks" Mirza said.

Mirza and Cyra's meeting is not intense, they do it to avoid sin, and if Mirza feels homesick with Cyra, she will ask Cyra for permission to visit the house, if Cyra allows, Mirza will walk, otherwise, all Mirza can do is look at Cyra's photo in her phone.

When Cyra is getting a call from Mirza, Cyra's eyes accidentally see Akmal standing next to a pole while staring at her.

It makes Cyra become uncomfortable and embarrassed himself, so he ignored Mirza who was talking to him.

" Cyra, are you still listening to Brother???" asked Mirza.

" Oh, still sister, sorry Cyra was being greeted by Cyra's friend," Cyra replied forced to lie to Mirza.

Cyra pretended not to see Akmal, turning her eyes to any place, but still her body gestures showed otherwise.

" Sister, later Cyra calls back, Cyra wants to buy a drink first, bye Kak Mirza," said Cyra.

" Bye my future wife, the spirit of demanding knowledge yes" replied Mirza.

" Assalamu'alaikum, "greetings from Cyra, and when it was answered by Mirza, Cyra immediately turned off her phone connection.

After turning off the phone from Mirza, Cyra rushed from there to get inside the mosque.

Akmal himself then smiled, when he saw Cyra was avoiding him, and Akmal was like a stalker for Cyra.

Unaware of Akmal, if what he did to Cyra, makes Cyra feel very uncomfortable with him.

Today at exactly three o'clock in the afternoon is Akmal's lecture hour.

Whenever Akmal taught, Akmal often appointed Cyra to come forward, to help him explain in front of the class.

Akmal reasoned, if Cyra is very good to hear when explaining, but it is all just mode.

Every third of the night, Cyra's name never forgets Akmal in his prayer, because he is eager to make Cyra his wife.

Death, soul mate, fortune, only God knows, and we as human beings, all we can do is strive and always try to get pleasure from HIM.

The next day, when the clock was still showing at two o'clock in the afternoon, Akmal who was on a teaching holiday, he who was watching television in the family room, his gaze suddenly shifted towards the Big Brother who already looked neat, and also fragrant.

" Sister is very neat, where are you going???" asked Akmal.

" Want to meet your future wife" replied Mirza looking very happy.

" Sister, come along ... ," said Akmal whining like a child.

Mama Jian who had just come out from inside the room, immediately answered Akmal's words.

" Later you can disturb Brother Mirza if you come along, Akmal" Mama Jian said as she sat on the sofa opposite Akmal.

" No Ma, Akmal promises not to disturb Brother, because Akmal is just curious about the prospective Sister-in-law, because Brother does not want to open with Akmal ", Akmal replied.

" All right, come on, get changed, you're like a kid" Mirza replied.

" Ashiiik, wait five minutes, Kak, Akmal just change clothes" Akmal said.

Mirza just nodded and sat down on the sofa next to her.

" How is your relationship with Cyra, son?? ," asked Mama Jian.

" Good Ma, even the more here, the better, Cyra has been open little by little with Mirza," replied Mirza.

" It's good then, Mama is happy to hear it" Mama Jian replied.

" Then, why don't you let Mama and Dad tell Akmal about Cyra??" asked Mama Jian.

" It's okay Ma, just be afraid that Akmal will fall in love with Cyra as well" Mirza replied with a laugh.

" You're just Mirza, there's no way Akmal will snatch his wife-to-be from his own sister" Mama Jian said as he shook his head.

" It's okay to be on your guard, because demons are everywhere and can instigate the human heart as you please" Mirza replied.

" Mirza is just anticipating Ma, because who the hell is a man who will not easily fall in love with Cyra who looks very sholeh, '" said Mirza again.

" Why then are you asking her to come with you, if you are afraid that Akmal will fall in love with Cyra???" asked Mama Jian.

" I don't know Ma, if Allah is meridhoi, surely Akmal will meet Cyra too, otherwise there will be his own instructions '" replied Mirza.

And their conversation came to a halt when Akmal had gone out of the room in a well-dressed manner to come with the older brother.

" Come, brother, Akmal is ready" Akmal said.

Mirza just nodded to Akmal, and both Mirza and Akmal, then said goodbye to the mother to go to Cyra's house.

When it was only half way, Mirza's car suddenly broke a chapter, and worse, Mirza forgot to bring a spare tire in the trunk of her car.

Mirza had to postpone her trip, to take her car to the nearest workshop, and maybe this is also a hint from God, if indeed Akmal is not allowed to know, if Cyra is his sister-in-law.

Mirza also told Cyra that she did not come to the house because her car was in a bit of a disaster.

Cyra who understood and felt worried, she replied to Mirza's message with prayers, as well as soft words that were pleasing when read by Mirza.
