Her night. When dinner time comes. Cyra who has finished cooking her husband's favorite dishes and himself assisted by the aunts. Cyra immediately rushed to meet Akmal who was playing casually in the family room with baby Zahwa.
"Mother. We'll have dinner first yuk."
Akmal just nodded. She holds baby Zahwa and walks with Cyra to the dining room.
The first time to eat together at the same table with the status of already a halal couple of the afterlife.
"This must be Umi's cooking, right?"
"Taste Umi is always good. Thank you so much for cooking up for Abu tonight," Akmal rubbed his niqab-covered cheek of Cyra.
Cyra smiled behind her niqab. "Tama-sama Abu. Sorry, if the cooking isn't good."
"Even if it's not good. The ashes will eat it. Because Umi has cooked all this with great effort. And certainly with love."
Cyra smiled happily as she clasped Akmal's hand tightly on the dining table.
Cyra took food for Akmal with great care. Cyra's attitude is very considerate with him as it is today. Suddenly reminded Akmal with his attitude first when the older brother was alive.
Akmal smiled to himself in his silence. Because he still did not expect. If he is the one currently being noticed by Cyra. She used to harbor feelings of jealousy and thought that she would never be able to have Cyra. But God has another path and destiny for him.
Akmal is so happy to finally have Cyra. But that doesn't mean he's happy about his brother's passing. Akmal's happiness is different from all of these events. And everyone who understands how Akmal's love story strives to keep his love. They must know how Akmal feels now.
"What else would Abu want to eat?"
Cyra's words successfully broke the momentary daydream earlier. Akmal smiled. "It's enough Umi. Umi just eat. Later if it is less, Abu will take it himself."
Cyra nodded. "All right."
They enjoyed their dinner very well. And interspersed with a warm conversation between the two of them, while paying attention to baby Zahwa who is cool playing alone with his toys.
"Tomorrow Abu hasn't left for college yet, has he?"
Akmal shook his head. "Umi Not yet. Abu permission three days not to teach. But Abu always monitors their duties and assigns tasks to them through assistant lecturers."
"Emm! Ash. Can Umi ask Abu again?"
"Ask me, darling. Why is it that every time you ask, Umi is like scared so. Wh why? Hm! Abu's not angry." Akmal answered gently.
With hesitation, though curious. Cyra finally dared to also ask Akmal. What has been the burden of his mind since yesterday. "Is Abu still in contact with Miss Aalifa?"
Akmal was a little surprised when Cyra asked about Aalifa to him. He had forgotten himself.
"No! Abu is no longer in contact with him. Even since his expulsion he was the same mother in the hospital first. Abu's already blocked his phone number and all his social media accounts."
"Mother herself had honestly forgotten about her, Umi. Why did Umi ask Abu that question? Does Umi still not believe in Abu?"
Cyra immediately shook her head. "No! Umi believes in Abu. Forget it."
Akmal held Cyra's hand to calm her down. "Calm Umi. As beautiful as any woman out there. God willing Abu will not be tempted, if the love of Abu is still based on the name of Allah in the heart."
Cyra nodded in understanding and entrusted all her heart to Akmal.
Akmal and Cyra's relationship has always been an interesting sight for her aunt. They are looking at Akmal and Cyra enjoying dinner together.
"Anyway! If you see Mr. Akmal and Ms. Cyra together. My heart feels very cool," said bi Lilis.
Bi Sukma who heard and saw the behavior of his two friends, then reprimanded him. "You guys! Why do you like eavesdropping and peeping Akmal and Miss Cyra anyway! Even if they won't be angry with you. But you guys should know someone's privacy. Don't do this. The sins!"
"Sorry Mommy Sukma," said bi Lilis and bi Ripka simultaneously.
Enjoy dinner together. Cyra and Akmal decided to go into the room instead. Because they still want to enjoy time together in person without anyone seeing.
When the clock shows at nine o'clock in the evening. Cyra's eyes suddenly felt very sleepy. His eyes closed for a long time, when he noticed Akmal and baby Zahwa who were joking.
Akmal who saw Cyra was asleep. Finally he was the one who replaced Cyra to pet and put baby Zahwa to sleep.
"Bobo yuk Darling. It's night. Look tuh! Umi's already bobo." Akmal held baby Zahwa in his arms.
A father's warm embrace. Baby Zahwa ended up falling asleep as well and her face looked even more adorable with her puffer cheeks.
After Akmal put baby Zahwa into her baby box. Do not forget Akmal immediately recited prayers and alfatihah three times and then he blew into the crown of baby Zahwa.
It's over with the routine. Akmal immediately fell down next to Cyra. Then cover her with the same blanket as her. While taking him into his arms.
Her morning. Akmal who is exercising in the morning with a run just around the front-back yard. He was a little surprised to see Cyra who was inside the car garage.
Akmal stopped running and opted to go into the garage.
"Eh Abu!" Cyra was quite surprised to see Akmal coming.
"What's the matter honey you see this car keep? Wanna try?" Akmal pointed at the car he gave yesterday.
"But Umi was afraid of crashing. The car is the most expensive on its own compared to the others" Cyra replied.
In their garage car. There are at least six cars parked there. Two luxury Mirza cars. One car belonging to Cyra giving Rashid abi first time in college. One more super luxury car latest output wedding gift from Akmal yesterday for Cyra. And two more private luxury cars owned by Akmal.
"Just like a car in general. Just a few different ones."
"if you wish? Come Abu Ajarin get in his car. We'll just go around the complex," Akmal took the car keys neatly tucked away on the shelf.
Akmal gave Cyra the car keys. "Try turning on the machine first. Let Abu get one of Abu's cars out first. So Umi can get her car out later."
Akmal got into his car to give way to Cyra's luxury car. Because the car on the outside is two cars owned by Akmal.
After pulling out the car. Akmal got into Cyra's car and sat in the passenger seat. The car has only two seats. "Let's go."
"But Aiza how's Abu?" ask Cyra.
"It's okay, let her be the same aunt first. We're just going around this complex. Let's run the engine of the car" Akmal replied.
Cyra then tried to pull back the car. And just this time Cyra rode a super luxury car to make his hands tremble a little afraid of crashing or wrong.
Anyways. Besides car. Akmal also has three private matic motorcycles. Which can be used by all workers of his house to go to the supermarket or the nearest stalls.
Akmal deliberately facilitates it all for his home workers. Or if anyone wants to go home and in urgent circumstances. Akmal allowed his motorbike to be taken home with his workers.
If you need a car, too. Akmal is ready to help. That's what my father taught him. For the workers who are in our homes, they are not slaves. But the people who contribute to help all our work. That was what Rafiq's father always said to mama Jian and to his two children.
