Cairo, Egypt.
Maryam is busy joking with her new friend must be with Zero.
When Maryam came, she was welcomed by the foundation owner as well as by the students who were studying there. Maryam became a polite person and was liked by many people therefore she was friends with two people there.
Zanna Kirania and Hyuna Isvara. Both are friends of Maryam Nusaibah Abdullah.
"Var, when are your parents going to visit?" ask Zanna.
"I don't know, Na. It seems like the fasting month this time I will return to Surabaya." replied Isvara.
"Well, if you go home we're the same who's dong, Var?" Maryam opened her voice in a sad tone.
"You will be guarded and accompanied by aja handsome." replied Isvara while glancing at Zero.
"Ish, but it's not good, Var."
"Aren't you going home, Mar?" ask Zanna.
"Not yet, Na. But it's not good to go home, I'm new here."
"Our fast to Tareem, Mar. How's it?" zanna's proposal.
"Good idea, I gave Zero permission first."
"That's not dong, I'm not invited." Isvara.
"Well you want to go home beautiful Isvara, we visit there just to relieve fatigue and automatic healing, huh ga, Mar?" Zanna.
"Yep." answered Maryam.
"Yaudah, but I'll come along sometime" Isvara said.
"Yes, Isvara." Maryam and Zanna answered together.
"Girls, I want to talk to Zero first, yes, assalamu'alaikum." said Maryam.
"When can I also have a bustle of Maryam's cake." said Zanna.
"How many times do I have to tell Na, Zero it's just take care of me no more!" deny Maryam.
"Jaudah is trying to believe." replied Isvara.
"Wa'alaikumussalam." replied Isvara and Zanna together.
Maryam approached Zero who was sitting looking at the person passing by in front of her.
"Darr!" Maryam was trying to shake Zero so they wouldn't be too awkward.
"Lo, you can't bother me for a day!" Zero spoke back in a snapping tone.
"Mas, why are you always yelling at me?" ask Maryam.
"Lo knows the answer!"
"But can't you be a little gentle?" Mary asked back.
"Don't hope!"
"I'm a woman too, Mom. Will still hurt when snapped especially that by a man. I apologize for all my past khilaf to Syaila, so many times I apologize, Mas. Does that not. make your heart melt?"
"Lo gausah wishes for more than me! and if it's not important to talk to me, if you yourself are hurt!"
"As what if I'm Maryam Nusaibah Abdullah loves you?"
"What do you like about me? that way you hurt yourself!"
Mary stood up, stepped up and said. "Everything just goes, Mom. This love is present without me asking, but dear the one I love very, very much hates me."
"You better bury that feeling! because whenever I'm never gonna like lo!"
"I'll still love you, Mom. Although my love is unrequited I will still survive and see if this love will lose or Mas Zero will be destroyed."
"Curtain! never will!"
"God is good, Mom. And I entrust this love to Him and Allah will show His power that Allah is the One who turns His servant's heart upside down."
After saying so Maryam left without greeting or saying goodbye, there was something that would spill from earlier she held and in the end the tears escaped by themselves.
Maryam was just an ordinary woman, she also rejected the love that was present in her heart for Zero, but I don't know the many efforts that Maryam did so that Zero could become her priest later.
"You're too good, Mar, for me to be this jerk. May with every rejection and clash of me make you give up on reaching for me who does not deserve you. May there be a man better than myself for you who are pious, yes."
