Finishing his job in the mini market, Dhito then immediately went home. As is customary now every day, Dhito will wash his hands with a hand sanitizer before entering the house. Then, Dhito immediately took a shower first, cleaning the tubunnya of germs and viruses that might be stuck in his body.
After cleaning up, Dhito then took his phone, now Dhito wants to call Ardhita immediately. All because, Dhito is also worried about the condition of Ardhita. No need to wait long, Dhito immediately called his lover.
Ardhita
Rang ....
"Hello, Assalamualaikum, Dik," said Dhito as soon as the phone was connected.
"Waalaikumsalam, Mas Dhito," replied Ardhita in Ranai, Natuna there.
"How are you doing, brother?" ask Dhito now.
When asking that question, Dhito hoped that Ardhita could tell him many things. Because, Dhito is ready to accompany Ardhita, even though it must be a long distance.
"Still, dry coughs, Mas," replied Ardhita.
Even now, Dhito heard himself Ardhita coughing. Just hearing that coughing sound alone, Dhito already sighed. I feel sorry for Ardhita.
"It must hurt? The key is spirit. Must fight. Remember, Dik .. You are not alone. You have me," replied Dhito.
Yes, although far away Dhito wants Ardhita to know that he is with her. He will always accompany Ardhita. Although separated, but the power of love can cut the distance.
"Goodoo, Mom."
Now comes the sound of Ardhita. It is undeniable that his mentality is also down. But what if God allowed him to feel this pain. Pain whose own cure has not been found.
"May I switch it to a video call?" ask Dhito then to Ardhita.
There, Ardhita nodded her head. However, he asks for time because now Dhita has not worn the hijab. So, Dhita must wear her hijab first.
"Really, just a minute. I haven't worn the hijab yet" she said.
"Yes, I'll wait. If you've switched to a video call, sir."
After that, Ardhita tidied her hair first. Then, she wore a hijab to cover her hair. Despite being engaged, a girl is still not a mahram for her lover. Both are declared valid when the agreement has been spoken.
A few minutes, and now that phone call was redirected to a video call. There was a smile that was plastered real Dhito on the screen of the phone.
"Assalamualaikum, Mas," said Dhita again.
Ayu's face, only her eyes were slightly puffy and it was also seen that Ardhita was crying there. Trying to smile and greet Dhito.
"Waalaikumsalam, Mother. I can finally see you. Cross-island visibility, now visible on mobile screens," Dhito replied.
The Dhito knew that when exposed to the virus, they had to eat a healthy and nutritious diet to boost their immune power. So, Dhito thought that it was possible that Ardhita would break the fast.
"I'm still fasting, Mas. Sorry, not all day. Only until azhar," he replied.
Fasting is worship. Ardhita hopes that by continuing to worship, performing Ramadan many ridho fasts from Allah descend upon him. Moreover, his pain will now be lifted up by God.
"If it is not strong, do not be forced, Dik. God also knows that his servant is sick. We will pay the fast" Dhito replied.
Then, Ardhita nodded her head. "As long as I'm still strong, I'll keep fasting, Mas" he replied.
"Don't forget to sunbathe too, Brother. Morning sunlight is good for the body."
Now Ardhita smiled, very happy that someone was watching her from afar. It can't be together. Can't meet. But that warm love can be felt.
"Sir, all this time. During our relationship, we never had any physical contact. However, this time, when you are sick, let me hug you. Yeah, with the prayer I said, I'm giving you a hug and a backrest."
Dmitry spoke seriously. For three years dating Ardhita, the two kept from touching each other. At least just shake hands. Impressed old-fashioned, but indeed both of them prefer to take care of each other. Will keep until the yellow janur curved. Now, Dhito says to be able to hug Ardhita, instead of hugging two hands, the bodies are fused together. Besides prayer. Yes, a beautiful way to embrace is through prayer.
Kala Dhito said that solemnly, Ardhita shed her tears. I really didn't think that her boyfriend could talk like that. Touched.
"Never be afraid, brother. God is with us. Illness comes with God's permission, so God gives healing, too" Dhito said.
"Ii .. yes, Mr. Dhito. Thank you very much" Ardhita replied.
"Espirit yeah. Oh, yes .. I sent you a package this afternoon. So, later if it comes accepted and there are some vitamins taken well," said Dhito.
"Bothering Mas Dhito loh," replied Ardhita.
"For you, I've never bothered, brother. It's 12 days, right? Later means it will be in the test usab again yeah?" ask Dhito.
"Yes, the fourth day will be tested again. Mas Dhito in Malang always take care of health well. Wear a mask and keep clean do not get infected like me. In addition, try to leave one person's house. Keep clean, especially there are middle-aged parents," replied Ardhita.
"Sure, Dik. Take a shower four times a day. Every time we got out of the house, we took a shower" Dhito replied with a smile.
Ardhita. He knew that Dhito was indeed a neat man and kept clean. However, Ardhita then coughed again. Until Ardhita held her chest, because of the urge from the cough.
Uhuk ... Uhuk ...
"Drink first, brother. Yes, you rest. We just send a message. Remember well, that I will embrace you from afar in prayer. I love you, Dik" said Dhito.
"Amen. Thank you, Mr. Dhito" replied Ardhita.
At least there is a form of attention that can be shown to loved ones and then only through video calls. Looking at each other, talking to each other, even though it is just a virtual meeting. However, far from all that Dhito will always pray to God, the way to embrace Ardhita from afar is through prayer. Amens.
