Time passed, and Ali had the opportunity to attend an out-of-town training. This is a valuable opportunity to improve his skills and knowledge in his work. However, this also means that Ali has to leave Aisha and their baby girl for a while.

When Ali told Aisha his plan, the atmosphere in their home became anxious. Aisha was very supportive of Ali's success, but the thought of their separation made her heart heavy.

"Could we delay that training?" aisha asked with a worried face.

Ali clasped Aisha's hand gently. "I know it's hard, Aisha, but this is an opportunity I don't want to miss. We can get through it together."

The two of them spoke at length about how they would cope with this separation. They make plans to keep in touch diligently and share their daily experiences through messages and video calls.

When the moment of separation arrived, the atmosphere at home was full of a mixture of anxiety and haru. Their baby girl, who had already grown into a cheerful toddler, felt that something unusual was happening. Ali took the baby in her arms and kissed her forehead gently.

"Father will return, dear," Ali said lovingly. "I will always be in your heart."

Aisha held back tears and hugged the two of them tightly. "You should return as soon as possible. We'll miss you."

Ali and Aisha promise each other that despite the distance separating them, their love and communication will remain strong. With a heavy heart, Ali leaves the house, leaving Aisha and their baby girl.

At the training ground, Ali went to great lengths to focus on learning and developing his new skills. However, longing for Aisha and their baby was always on her mind. Every time he saw a passing baby, he felt a deep longing.

Meanwhile, Aisha also experiences challenges in living her daily life without Ali by her side. She felt lonely and missed her husband who was usually always there to support her. However, he remained persistent and lived the days with vigor.

The two of them went through this farewell with a strong determination and support that never diminished. Each of their messages and video calls becomes a liaison that strengthens their relationship, and they share hilarious stories about their baby girl that are getting more active every day.

One day, Ali calls Aisha via video call. When Aisha picked up the phone, she was shocked to see an unexpected sight. Ali appeared on the screen with their baby girl in his arms.

"Aisha, I'm home early!" ali said with a big smile.

Aisha was surprised and very happy. He shed tears and was happy. "You came sooner than I expected!"

They both talked and laughed through video calls, sharing stories of their experiences during the breakup. Their baby girl looked enthusiastically looking at her father's face on the screen.

Ali's return brings irreplaceable happiness to their family. This temporary breakup teaches them the meaning of sacrifice, the power of love, and how to live the challenge together.

Although Ali has returned and the temporary separation is over, a deep feeling of longing still haunts Ali and Aisha. Ali's return brings happiness, but the anxiety and longing they experienced during the breakup left a deep imprint.

As night falls, Ali and Aisha sit together on the porch of their house, enjoying the cool air. Ali felt Aisha look different, and she asked attentively, "Aisha, are you okay?"

Aisha stared into the distance with a thoughtful face. "I feel like something's wrong, Ali. It's as if there's a load stuck in my chest."

With a quivering voice, Aisha began to tell him about her feelings during the breakup. He explained that the longing and anxiety he felt during that time had grown into an emotional burden that was so heavy, even after Ali returned.

"When you leave, Ali, I feel lonely and anxious" Aisha said in a trembling voice. "And as time went on, it caused a pain that I could not control."

Ali felt moved and grabbed Aisha's hand gently. "I didn't mean to cause you any pain, Aisha. I don't know how you feel so deep."

Aisha was crying slowly. "It's not your fault, Ali. I know you're trying your best. But I feel the need to talk about this feeling."

Ali and Aisha sit down together, talking sincerely about Aisha's feelings and how they can overcome this challenge together. Ali understands that the breakup has had a profound impact on Aisha, and she vows to always be by her side and support her throughout the journey.

The two of them were looking for a way to deal with the anxiety and pain Aisha felt. They seek help from a counselor who can help them both talk about their feelings in a more structured manner. In addition, they also began to undergo healthy habits, such as exercising together and undergoing activities that can relieve stress.

On this journey, Ali and Aisha learn that being open about their feelings is the key to overcoming anxiety and pain. Ali understands the importance of listening and supporting Aisha, while Aisha feels safe to talk about her feelings.

In time, the weight that felt so heavy on Aisha's chest began to subside. The pain he felt was getting less and less, along with Ali's support and their efforts to overcome this problem together.

However, they learn how to talk openly about their feelings and seek support to address these issues. Through honest communication and concerted effort, they overcome these obstacles and strengthen the bond of love they share.

Ali and Aisha decide to face the challenge of their longing and anxiety with humor. They realize that a little comedy can be a panacea to relieve the emotional stress they feel.

One night, while they were sitting on the porch, Ali started the conversation in a serious tone. "Aisha, I think we need to take this matter seriously."

Aisha looked at him with a concerned face. "What should we do, Ali?"

Ali suddenly changed his facial expression to serious and said in a hoarse voice, "We must find a magical cure!"

Aisha was surprised by the rapid change in atmosphere. He started with a sharp look, but finally could not bear it and laughed out loud. "Ali, you're so silly!"

Ali joined the laughter. "I know it's serious, but we can't let longs take us."

They continue to talk about their feelings in a humorous tone, creating a variety of hilarious scenarios about how they can cope with longing and anxiety. They realized that changing perspectives and adding a touch of comedy could help them feel lighter in the face of adversity.

A few weeks later, they experience a situation that requires them to be separated again for a while due to Ali's work. But this time they had a different plan.

Ali sends a message to Aisha with a fake "mix medicine" image containing a funny doll with the caption "Magic Longing Medicine." Aisha replies with a laughing emoji and sends an even funnier photo of the doll.

As they talk through video calls, they share stories of their longing drug "side effects" which include stomach tickling and unstoppable smiles. They both laughed and felt that they actually found a way to deal with longing and anxiety more positively.
