Chapter 80

Upon seeing the situation safe, Huan was very upset with the insect biting him. "Fuckin' bugs, you dare to just group, if we can by one," he said, who then beristighfar because of the emotions carried on in animals that are actually innocent, he said, the mistake occurred because of his own actions that accidentally messed up the nest of the small animal. 

Along the stepping foot, Huan thought how he could meet Adiba. But thinking too hard makes him hungry. "It's not a solution even my stomach sounds prematurely." He decided to return to the dormitory and see if there was any money left. 

Huan looked for every slip of his clothes, every time he found money. However, he realized that he was running out of money. "Why is my money running out in this crucial time, where is not the time to eat yet." Complaining is also free, asking roommates for food is not the right solution" he murmured. 

On his feet he walked into the kitchen and saw the men who had not done anything, forced to sneak into the kitchen belonging to the woman who might cook. 

"Hi ladies, sorry to bother you." Huan greeted some of the cooking khadimah, and his gaze stopped for a while looking at Adiba. He remembered that his current situation was more precarious. "Jangn someone yelled or reported me, I'm not here to tease you guys" he explained with a clear look and two sparkling eyes with high hopes. "I'm hungry, do you have any food I can eat?" 

The khadimah were silent at Huan's good looks, immediately they lowered their heads holding their eyes. 

"Why not go to a male kitchen? You're breaking the rules, how about until Nyai's mom finds out." Adiba looked at Huan at a glance, he was annoyed that there was a man who dared to enter the kitchen specifically for women.  

"They haven't cooked, and there's no food there. I'm very hungry but can't cook" explained Huan who was honest because of stomach affairs number one. "Be kind to me, there is no other intention than to ask for a little food."

Adiba shook his head and walked to pick up some pieces of fried cassava, he presented them to Huan. "This is for you, I just fried it. You'd better leave, don't let Nyai's mom see you're here!"

"Can this be eaten?" Huan smelled the scent of fried cassava, because he never ate it. 

"Fried cassava, it's quite filling just like rice, bread, and sago." 

"Thank you." Huan who was about to feed the fried cassava into his mouth, remembered when it was time he asked Adiba about the matchmaking. "Again." 

"Yes." Yeah." 

"Something I want to talk to you about, it's important." 

"Just talk about it here, I don't want to cause slander." 

"Well, can we just stay a little bit away?" 

Adiba seemed to think for a while, then nodded in agreement to Huan's words. "You don't have much time, tell me what's up?" 

Huan began to be confused about where to start the conversation, this concerned the girl's personal affairs while the position was only a foreign man. "I'm sorry if I'm presumptuous, are you happy with Joseph's betrothal?" 

"It's none of your business. I don't want to discuss personal matters with strangers, so I'm asking you not to interfere." 

"I knew. Joseph already has a wife and he loves his wife very much, are you willing to live with her?" 

Huan stared at Adiba's departure, indeed he had been presumptuous to ask things that are sensitive. He recorded how the girl looked, like something was covered up. "Even if part of his face is covered, I can read the look in his eyes. 

While on the other hand, Adiba ran into his room in the house owned by the uncle. He cried with the question asked by Huan, tears that could not be covered but did not want to be seen by others. 

Adiba opens the veil that covers part of his face, he cries while remembering how the matchmaking took place. Yes, he knew that Joseph loved his first wife Aisha. 

At that night, no man wanted to ask for her especially with a bad past. Adiba was abused by his stepfather, and lost his virginity when he was a teenager. Almost desperate makes him want to end his life, but his uncle and aunt come to save his life and give him a place to stay. The kindness of his uncle and aunt, as well as the owner of the pesantren made him live better. Study religion, and slowly forget about it. 

At the age that a girl deserves to get married, no man wants to ask for it and even reject the proposal just because the past is slowly unfolding. He feels guilty and embarrasses his uncle and aunt for the haunting past. Until he resigned and relied only on the Power. 

Only one man would propose to her, Muhammad Yusuf. The handsome man who participated in teaching at the pesantren run by Adiba's uncle and aunt. 

Adiba initially liked the match, but he was disappointed when he found out his future husband had married and it was more painful that the match was proposed by Aisyah, Joseph's wife. Want to be disappointed was free, so that his aunt and uncle were not ashamed and returned the favor, he was willing to marry and did not matter to be second. 

There was a knock on the door of the room, immediately Adiba wiped the tears when he knew it was the sound of his aunt. Immediately he opened the door, revealing his face that was not closed. "Yes Bi, what's wrong?" 

"Why are your eyes swollen?" 

"This is Bi's dust entry, Adiba cleaned the bookshelf earlier." 

"Hem, that's it. Auntie here to make sure one more time, how do you feel about Yusuf?" 

He was eager to say that he refused the marriage that would soon be held, but he also remembered the favor and did not want to put additional burden on his uncle and aunt. 

"Like the flow of Bi, Adiba accepted the match." 

"You still have time, honey. Joseph loves his wife very much, you know very well his intention to marry you, they want children." 

"Adiba knows Bi, isn't the soul mate set? If Joseph is my soul mate, then I will accept him." 

The middle-aged woman looked down at her nephew, hugging him in the arms given Adiba's status as an orphan. "You are like Saints and Abraham, whom Aunt has considered to be her own son. Don't sacrifice your feelings and betray your heart, tell the truth before the day comes!" 

Adiba shed tears, and wiped them down quickly. Staring at the departure of her aunt who had started to move away, she immediately closed the door and came back crying. "O Allah, my Lord, if Joseph is my soul mate, grant me the sincerity of accepting your destiny" he said. 

Huan overheard the Khadimah who had spoken of Adiba and Yusuf's marriage, gossiping after Adiba's departure. 

"There is so much love for Adiba, he was forced to accept this match. I'll help him, maybe he's my match," chuckled Huan who immediately left from there.
