Her night. About seven and a half hours. The friend they were waiting for finally came as well. Abraham with Kalila. Hamzah with Misha and baby Abbiyya. And Deena and Fadli.
Akmal and Cyra as good hosts welcome the arrival of them all with a friendly and warm.
"You guys can come together like that? Have you made any prior agreements?"
Kalila answered him immediately. "Yes, Akmal. We have made a previous agreement. But before entering this compound we waited for each other in front of the gate."
Akmal nodded his head hearing Kalila's reply.
"Oh yes Deena. You look fatter now. Or maybe you're pregnant?" replace Cyra who speaks.
Deena smiled. "Alhamdulillah Cyra's. I'm already pregnant."
Cyra and Misha look happy to hear the news of Deena's pregnancy. "Well! Alhamdulillah, congratulations. How many months has Deena been?"
"About two months and a half" Deena replied.
"Alhamdulillah" said Misha.
There's a wounded man hearing that Deena's pregnant now. Who else if not Kalila.
Yep! Kalila and Deena were married almost simultaneously. They were two weeks apart from marrying her. But Deena was pregnant earlier than Kalila.
Deena is pregnant and she is not. There was a sense of worry felt by Kalila. He involuntarily rubbed his own stomach while saying in his heart. "Yes Allah. May You soon give me the descendants of the sholih and sholihah. Aamiin's."
"If you are Kalila. Have you followed Deena?" ask Misha.
Kalila with her lesion face immediately shook her head. "Not yet."
Cyra, Misha and Deena instantly fell silent. They think how to keep Kalila from falling down with the situation and also not offended to hear the news of Deena's pregnancy.
"Allah is Knowing of Calila. Believe this. You have not been given a baby because God does not love you. But because God wants to see you better in improving yourself. For God knows better what is good for His servant" said Cyra.
"Yes Kalila. You married her anyway, it's only been a minute. Take the positives, yes. You are the same brother Abraham can even spend time together and can date halal freely," Misha tried to encourage Kalila.
Kalila smiled at Cyra and Misha. "Yes. Thanks though. God willing I will draw closer to Him."
"You are still our friend Kalila. We will help you if you are in trouble though" Deena smiled sweetly.
"Thank you Deena," Deena immediately nodded to Kalila.
While the men just keep quiet while listening to the women who are busy chatting.
"I'm also not in a hurry to have children. Just love Him" said Abraham.
"Bismillah. Pray more and enjoy your time together. Like me who always wanted to be close to Cyra," Akmal spoke to change the atmosphere.
Akmal's words successfully make Cyra smile behind his niqab.
"If you don't need to doubt. Surely want to stick. Like upil in the nose! Or maybe you won't let Cyra out of the room just to serve you!" moda Hamzah's.
Akmal immediately laughed out loud hearing the temptation of the friend.
"Easy-after. There are a lot of small children here," Akmal tried to assuage his laughter.
"They're still babies! How could I possibly understand Hamzah's speech!" Abraham throws the couch cushion at Akmal who is still laughing.
Akmal managed to fend off the throw of a sofa cushion from Abraham. Because I feel angry at him. While the girls are also still laughing at the behavior of their husbands who are like children.
Being cool in joking, suddenly their ears all heard the sound of Adzan isya' reverberating. As a good man. Akmal immediately invited his three friends to perform the prayer of Isya' in the mosque not far from his home.
And for the women. Cyra immediately invited them to pray in the prayer room in his house.
"Your house is really very nice, Cyra. I love the interior," Misha admires Cyra's house.
After performing the prayer of Isya', everyone immediately returned to the living room of Akmal house.
Fadli also came with Deena. He tried to ask Akmal about his resignation as a Lecturer.
"Mas Akmal really want to resign as a Lecturer?"
Because they both are not in the campus environment. Fadli accidentally calls Akmal with Mas's call.
Abraham, who heard Fadli's words, asked Akmal. "Is it true Mal! You want to resign as a lecturer?"
"Isn't being a Lecturer your childhood dream?" Hamzeh added.
Cyra who heard the question all immediately turned her gaze towards Akmal. Because he wanted to know what answer Akmal would give to his three friends.
Akmal nodded his head. "Yes right. I have indeed given my resignation letter to the Rector. Just waiting in the ACC by her."
"But why did Mas Akmal resign? On campus yesterday had a scene that heard Mas Akmal wanted to resign," said Fadli.
"Well, what's up, Fadli?"
Fadli. "Yes. But only among the lecturers. It also got a leak from the Dean sir."
"I just want to be a good husband. I can't bear to see my wife so tired of taking care of the boutique alone. Not to mention my spare parts store that also needs my attention. Not Foundation."
"One of them has to be something I sacrifice. To be a Lecturer."
"If I can't teach anymore. At least my knowledge can still be useful for me to teach my children and my wife."
Cyra smiled behind her niqob. She was flattered to hear Akmal's reply.
"Oh yes Cyra. You haven't told me about the convection. Who's that convection?" ask Kalila.
Akmal immediately turned his gaze towards Cyra.
"It's a convection belonging to someone else. But it's been working with a boutique owned by Mirza. And the result is divided in two. They can't sew clothes if they're not from Mirza's boutique."
"When I opened my instagram. I accidentally saw a famous artist who tagged your Instagram account Cyra. He said his wedding dress and all the clothes his extended family wore, and his bridesmaid was from your boutique. Is that true?" ask Deena.
Cyra smiled as she nodded. "Yes. He took it in my boutique. And he really likes the results. Even if it works in just one week."
Misha was surprised. "What! Just one week!"
Misha's loud voice made the sleeping baby Abbiyya wake up in shock.
"You are darling. So wake up!" hamzah Reprimand.
Hamzah immediately took over baby Abbiyya for her to calm down. Misha laughed without feeling guilty.
"Yes. That's just one week's work. We put out a lot of energy and wasted our time working overtime on his orders, "not Cyra who answered but Akmal.
"It looks like Mirza's business since you guys have seen more and more success, yes" said Abraham.
Akmal immediately gave thanks. "Alhamdulillah. Aamiin's."
"All this is also thanks to Mirza's sister, Brother. Because we just continue so that the business that has been built hard by him is not destroyed in the middle of the road" answered Cyra.
Abraham nodded his head just hearing Cyra's answer.
As a good friend. She also enjoys hearing that Akmal and Cyra are becoming more successful. Because Abraham knew the nature of Akmal and Cyra. Even if they are successful and rich. But Akmal and Cyra always try tawadhu'.
