Fely was sitting down facing the Qibla while reciting a prayer. He has finished performing his istikharah prayer. Only to Allah does he surrender and ask for help. He believes God is never wrong in determining one's destiny.
As with rainbows that appear after the rain, there is always a certain wisdom as to why we should face the matter of life before happiness is on our side. He was sincere, he was trying to patiently live his destiny. Now was the time for him to hope that happiness would come to him.
"Yes Allah ... You know what is good and what is bad for me. You are All-Willful of Your statutes. Please show me what is good for me and my religion, which is good for now until the next day, if he is my soul mate then bring me closer to him, if he is not my soul mate then make me a pleasure for him. I surrender to You for my destiny. Only to You do I ask for guidance and help. Pray my prayer O Allah, aamiin," said Fely in his prayer as he turned his palms up.
After praying Fely immediately folded the face he was wearing, then went to sit on the edge of the bed. Yesterday he asked for time to think about the proposal of the two men who came to him. It was hard for him to choose one of them. Nabil's mother was so kind to him, she couldn't bear to let him down.
Whereas with Raka, it is undeniable when he met his first love again, the seeds of love that once grew in his heart, are now springing back.
He took a photo of his first husband in a small picture frame located on the nightstand.
Mas Nabil, I ask permission for you to marry again, please ridhoi me yes, Mas! I will remember you all my life, I will always pray for you, hopefully someday we can meet again in heaven. Being with you is a wonderful memory in my life that I will never forget! felly murmured in the heart.
She held the picture in her arms, and then she began to lay her body on the bed. There was a sense of relief after performing the prayer of Istikharah and asking permission to her first husband. He hoped that God would lead him to the right choice that was best for him.
Next day at the dinner table.
"Fe, do you know very well about his family? unlike Naufal who we already know his family, while Raka is only you who know his background. Brother doesn't want you to be lied to by him anymore" Abiyu asked after finishing her breakfast.
"Fely was well acquainted with his mother, brother. Fely even yesterday had met his mother after attending Mika's wedding, her name is aunt Rahma. He's very kind. And, he gave a letter from Maura to me, Brother," said Fely trying to reveal the good things he knew from the Raka family.
"What's it doin?" cecar Abiyu's.
"Ec ... Fely did not know if his job was still the same, he used to say if he escaped being appointed as assistant director. After that I don't know because I just met him again, brother," said Fely.
"What if he lies to you again?" abiyu said again.
"Sister! really evil from earlier cornered Raka continues! I'm sure Raka isn't like that and she loves her mother very much. A man who loves his mother, I think is a man who will treat women as well as he takes care of his mother" defended Fely.
"Eh, you know what, Dek!" tajek Abiyu's.
"Yes, Mommy see it seems you are more inclined to Raka than Naufal, Fe," said the mother took a look.
"Ah .. i-it's not like that, Bun. Fely just told me what Fely knows," said Fely evaded the mother's accusation.
"All right, so who will you choose?" ask mother again.
Fely was silent without answering.

"Mom, how's Mom doing? healthy?" fely asked, hugging his mother Nabil.
"Thank God you're healthy, son. Mother misses you altogether, Mother has been waiting since yesterday, you know," said Nabil's mother.
"Sorry, Mom. Fely waited for Mother's arrival first," replied Fely politely.
"Ekhm .. ekhm .., sir, Ma'am, I represent the family wanting to convey the purpose and purpose of our arrival here, the first is to come to terms with the second one wants to answer Naufal's proposal for Fely" Abiyu paused his words. "We would like to apologize to Mother, Father and also Naufal .. sorry my sister could not accept the application from Naufal," Abiyu said in a careful response.
Naufal, mother and father were shocked to hear this. They were very happy when Fely's family came to visit. The wedding ceremony had been designed if Fely willing to marry Naufal. However, Fely did not receive a proposal from Naufal.
"Why, Son? is your child not right for you?" ask mom sadly.
"It's not like that, Mom. Fely knew quite well Mas Naufal the salih man and was very good, arguably almost worth it to Mas Nabil. It is precisely Fely who is just an ordinary woman who still lacks a lot. Please forgive Fely for not being able to comply, Mother. Even so, Mother remains Mother-in-law Fely until any time, which Fely has considered like Mother Fely herself. You guys are part of the Fely family too, just-just-" Fely's words came to a halt as Naufal cut his words.
"It's okay, Fe. We don't have any ties yet, so you don't have to feel guilty. If your decision is the best for you, I'm sincere. Is not the soulmate the secret of God. If you reject my proposal, it is also the power of God. Maybe right now my soul mate out there is waiting for me to fight," Naufal said with a peaceful smile.
"God, you are so wise, Mother. Thank you for being willing to understand and heartened to accept Fely's decision, Mas. Fely will pray that Mas Naufal will soon be met with your soul mate!" said Fely with haru flavor. He did not expect that Naufal was mature enough to understand his decision.
"Amijin!" naufal.
"Have any other men proposed to you, son?" ask mother.
"Yes, Mom. Fely chose another man because Fely had known him for a long time, even before he knew Nabil. At that time they almost planned to get married as well, but there was a misunderstanding between them," said the mother who immediately helped answer.
"All right, I will bless you. While you're happy we're happy with you, son!" said sincere mother. "Later if you're married don't forget to be introduced to the mother, huh?"
"Sure, Mom! thank you very much for understanding, Fely is very lucky to have a mother" said Fely while hugging his mother Nabil.

After returning from Nabil's house they went to Rahma's house to convey Fely's decision.
"Bismillah .. I choose you, Raka. Please don't disappoint me again!" fely told Raka.
"Alhamdulillah O Allah. Thank you, Fe. I'm not gonna make the same mistake a second time, Fe. Even if you're willing I'll marry you right now!" answer Raka.
"Eits no-no, I don't agree to marry siri again. If you mean it to my sister, I will give you a week to collect the necessary letters for a legally valid marriage in the eyes of religion or country. If during the time I set you can't fulfill it, you better forget to marry my sister!" abiyu said firmly.
"Sir ...!" fely protests that felt his brother was too harsh to treat Raka.
"Good, Brother. I will prove my worth! I make sure to marry Fely on time" said Raka steady.
