After collecting the exam papers on the last day, Meidina tucked her head up on the bench, pressing her down several times.

"Mother." Zaskia gently touched his shoulder. "Well, is it okay?" tanyakanya.

"It's okay, Ning," he said by trying to smile.

"You better not come, Din to Wardah's house. You take a break, your body is very hot" Davina said after touching Meidina's forehead. High heat.

"I want it to be, but it doesn't feel good to him if I don't come" Meidina replied

Nyai Wardah, his wife Kyai Sholih, he today has a dream of marrying his eldest daughter. And Nyai Wardah came alone to KM to invite the four of them. That was why Meidina felt bad, if she did not attend her invitation.

"What if we take you to the boarding house now?" Nabila.

"Yes, Mother. I'm carrying a car" Zaskia said.

"No need, I took the medicine before" Meidina refused.

"Meidina. You have to be healthy, you have to rest a lot. Not only because the post-exam activity will be more dense, but because of your marriage, it's only a week away," said Nabila slowly. However, as slow as Nabila said, Meidina was still shocked to hear it.

The ayu girl looked surprised, she seemed to have just been made aware of something that had been deliberately ignored.

Ah, it turns out the time is getting closer. Meidina let out a strong breath. And then they could see the falling of tears on Meidina Shafa's face.

"I'm sorry that this sentence makes you uncomfortable. But, that's a fact that you will definitely run, Meidina." Nabila gently rubbed Meidina's bowed shoulders.

"Here we want to encourage you, we want to help you to prepare for that moment" continued Nabila again.

"What needs to be prepared" Meidina said. Davina was immediately bowed in. Even with Zaskia whose head also immediately drooped.

"We understand how you feel. We understand, Meidina. But marriage is not just a pledge between two people, or two families. But also a pledge with God. We will certainly be held accountable by that pledge." Still Nabila said that. As for Davina and Zaskia, they would never have the guts to say that to Meidina Shafa. They are in a vortex of trouble. The problem that comes down to taste.

"I'm sorry, if my words make you sad." Once again Nabila apologized, because hearing every word, Meidina's tears seemed to pour out profusely.

"Thank you for reminding me of something I forgot about on purpose." Meidina said that with a choked voice, due to the burden of the soul that was too heavy. "But let this be my PR. Because right now, I don't know what to do either," he continued with great difficulty. Next Meidina looked at the three friends carefully.

"Pray me yes, that I may see, that all that my Lord has chosen for me, is beautiful."

Zaskia rushed to the car, she had to go home first to her Alhasyimi branch, before attending Nyai Wardah's invitation with her friends in about an hour. And the beautiful girl was shocked to see a handsome young man who was standing leaning on the MVP type car.

"Mas Azmi?"

"Have you gone home, Ning?"

"Yes, is Mas Azmi here?"

"You called me, to take you home" Azmi said.

"Lho, Mas Azmi is there an event with Albadar?" ask Zaskia astonished.

"Yes, after driving you home. I'll catch up with friends."

"Why Mas Azmi did not tell abah, if there is an event, I will be able to go home alone" Zaskia protested.

Home alone what Zaskia meant was to go home with the driver as usual. And if he came home delivered by Azmi, they were not just alone. There is a private driver of the family Kyai Fadholi who always accompany.

"This is trust, Ning," Azmi said.

"But I don't like to trouble others. The next time you ask Mas Azmi to take me, Mas Azmi just refuse."

"Ning, I just want to see you're always okay. And this is not just a trust from your brother. But, from within my own heart," Azmi said firmly.

Zaskia did not answer, but she quickly got into the car in a hurry. During the journey the beautiful girl was silent a thousand languages. What was in the maya of his mind were the tears of Meidina Shafa just now, as well as the words of Nabila Alia. It's like a video recording that's always played back.

Suddenly the car bdrhenti. But it has not yet reached its destination.

"Why stop, Mom?"

"Remove the tears!" Azmi thrusts a box of tissue. Despite the discomfort and discomfort, Zaskia accepted it, and wiped her tears.

"It's okay, Mas," said Zaskia.

"It is good to keep anxiety only for yourself, and then to be told to God. But there's no harm in telling a trusted person, because sometimes, God's answer, is in the opinion of the person we trust."

Hearing Azmi's words, Zaskia's intention to tell a story. But, there was one side in his heart that did not accept.

"Why should I trust Azmi?"

"You and your Lord know better the answer, Ning," Azmi said. And out of this was all doubt in Zaskia.

"According to Mas Azmi, Rafka would be a good husband for Meidina?" ask Zaskia.

"God willing, Yes" said Azmi.

"Why is Azmi sure?"

"Because Rafka's deck is a good leader for himself, then automatically he will be a good leader for his wife later," Azmi replied with a definite tone.

"Did Rafka love Meidina?" ask Zaskia again. In fact, his heart was rumbling as he asked this. He was afraid and worried about what would be the answer from Azmi after this.

"if that is the case, I do not know" Azmi replied.

"Why?" Zaskia looked quite disappointed by that answer. Because he hoped he would get a definite answer. Say yes or no. Even with that, it will not reverse the situation that has happened. "Why, Mas Azmi doesn't know, instead you're close friends."

"Dek Rafka is a type of person who does not easily show his love or hatred for others, even if it is against his own friends. And as far as I know, Deck Rafka never talked about Meidina Shafa, either before or after becoming her fiance. So none of us knew how she felt about Meidina" Azmi explained quite clearly, staring at Zaskia a little, while her mind was turbulent.

So this is what you're thinking, Ning Zaskia. What you think even with tears.

"So Meidina cried because when her marriage was near," Zaskia said in a soft voice. Actually that sentence was just a diversion, from what he actually felt. Where he sees a game of life turned upside down. I don't know what secret God wants to tell me about it all.

"That's because she doesn't know how her future husband is. Maybe in fact, Rafka's deck also felt the same turmoil, only he was more reliable," Azmi said in response to what Zaskia recently said.

"What does that mean, according to? Mas Azmi, Rafka is better than Meidina in dealing with this situation?"

"No. I don't want to say who is better among them. Meidina is currently experiencing a complicated polemic. The truth is that it all comes from his own perspective and his beliefs about life and marriage partners" Azmi explained.

"Is this talking about the criteria for a candidate, Mas? Doesn't everyone deserve a dream priest, and a dream marriage?" Zaskia launched a protest, because she herself also had the criteria of a desired partner.

"Yes, right. Everyone has a right. The right of the Patent is in the hands of God. In each of those events there was ibrah, Ning. There are lessons we need to learn. As in the case of Meidina, for example, she just needs time to understand, that the love of God, not only lies in what we like ..."

impatient to wait for a more complete explanation from Azmi, Zaskia immediately slashed the young man's speech with her question. In addition, he began to feel very interested in talking to the young man. The young man who had been considered ordinary, turned out to have a deep enough understanding, and was wise enough to deal with the situation. "I mean, Azmi?"

"God is teaching him something he has not known. God is telling Meidina other forms of His love than he is aware of. Just like you, Ning Zaskia."

"I ..?"

"If you can be with the person you really want to be with, you will only be grateful. But if your togetherness turns out to be with people you don't expect, Ning Zaskia will learn patience, then trust, and then be sincere. That is when the horizon of knowledge will be opened to you, about your life, about His power. And there is no more glorious and more beautiful situation for a person than when he feels close to his Lord."

Zaskia was speechless, her gaze was glaring, what Azmi said was clear and long enough just now, was deeply engulfed in feelings. Until he was unable to speak. Especially when Azmi adds a description. "That means God wants to give you more than you want."

The beautiful girl became bowed for a long time, like she was interpreting everything. Until then heard a ringing call on Azmi's phone.

"Yes, Nizam." Azmi picks up the phone that apparently from Nizam. For a moment he listened to Nizam. Then, "oo it's starting, I'll be sorry for a minute."

Zaskia looked up to hear that.

"Albadar's done, huh, Mas?"

"Yes "

"Let's go again, Mas. Take me home!"

"Ning Zaskia is okay?"

"Yes, inshaAllah."

Azmi immediately gestured for the driver sitting on his road to immediately return his car.
