Falling in Love With the Same Person

Falling in Love With the Same Person
Back to Jakarta


It's been a month since Papa Alexa's accident. Now Mr. Wiratama has been allowed to go home and perform postoperative recovery from home, of course, still routine therapy and health checks.


Alexa semester breaks and Alexa short semester study time are over. Although his short semester this time failed but he was not too worried because he only took two courses and could be improved in the next semester.


It was all meaningless compared to the health of his father. It is my father who is the priority for now. And because his father has improved Alexa returned to Jakarta to continue his studies in the second semester.


Actually it is still hard to separate and leave both parents but for the future Alexa must be separated from her family.


Papa and Mama have been round back convincing that the Papa is better now and the mother can take care of her own Papa in the process of recovery. With a heavy heart Alexa set out back to Jakarta.


Alexa Airport has been picked up by Reza, Lidya and Sisil. They can't wait to see Alexa.


"Sandraaaa... kangennya" Shouted Sisil and followed by Lidya they embraced ala teletubbis.


Reza took Alexa's suitcase and carried it. He smiled to see the three friends in front of him were missing.


"How's Om San?" ask Reza.


"Alhamdulillah is getting better Za. Papa and Mama send greetings to all of you" said Alexa staring at her friends.


"Aaaa... Welcome back to Jakarta Sandra." said Sisil happy.


"Tomorrow we take care of the administration of the second semester yes in the bureau" said Lidya reminded.


"Yes yes, it looks like I have to prepare all my files" Alexa replied.


"You take a break San, you're tired of the long journey. Some at home you must be tired of helping Aunt Ngurusin Om who is still sick" said Reza noticed his best friend who looks a bit thin. Surely Alexa in addition to fatigue is also a lot of thoughts, thinking of her Papa who is sick. Inner Reza.


Reza knows Alexa loves her dad. Alexa always idolized her father. For him Papa is the person who understands him the most and always defends him even though it is from the scolding of Mama Alexa who always demands Alexa to be a graceful and meek woman.


The four of them finally arrived at the boarding house. Reza can only deliver the girls until the front porch of their boarding houses after which Reza returned to his boarding house.


Lidya and Sisil help Alexa bring all her luggage to the room. Alexa gave some gifts to her friends. He only brought his mother's self-cooked food.


Alexa most like to be brought along sambel teri medan and rendang. Usually the mother deliberately made a lot in order to be shared and eaten Alexa with her friends.


In the evening Alexa came to Lidya's room.


"Lid you're in the room, can I come in" Alexa said.


"Come on San" cried Lidya from within.


Alexa goes into Lidya's room she wants to talk about something.


"Lid anyone wants me to obrolin with you, aren't you busy?" ask Alexa


"No San, just talk. I will be horrified" replied Lidya.


"Yesterday when my Papa was sick made me realize it turned out age, sustenance and soul mate is the secret of God and all has been arranged. I've been praying incessantly while Papa is in critical condition. And when Papa realized I was very, very grateful and vow Lid. I will be a different Alexandra and will change for the better. Before I go home, Papa also tells me that I will return to my nature as a woman, not styling like a man anymore. Papa didn't force me to be a wonder woman, a tough woman. But she told me to turn into a gentle and loving woman. The calamity that befell Papa made me realize that I was trying to get closer to God. I want to change Lid, want to wear a hijab like you" Alexa shed tears.


"Alhamdulillah San" Lidya hugged her best friend's body tightly, she was very happy and supported Alexa's intention to change into a better woman again.


"Please help and guide me yes Lid" pinta Alexa.


"God willing I will help you. We both learned to be better" Lidya replied.


"Thank you Lidya" said Alexa.


"Oh yes Lid, tomorrow I come home from college and I buy all the knickknacks hijab and buy new clothes. My clothes are short-sleeved all and don't have a hijab. Then teach me how to wear the right hijab. I'm not good at dressing up" I'm Alexa.


"Yes later I teach ya, tomorrow also I accompany you shopping all your needs, you have prayed Isya yet?" ask Lidya.


Alexa shook her head.


"We pray Isya together with yuk, congregate" Lidya invited.


"I went back to the room first yes, take ablution and mukena" said Alexa.


Soon Alexa came again with her face, and they prayed together in Lidya's room.


Tonight Alexa steadied her heart to immediately wear the hijab. Papa often said good intentions are good so be advised not to be delayed. Do not let the devil hear, the devil will certainly bring out all his persuasive moves to tempt people not to do good. And Alexa always hears every word and message of her Papa. For Alexa Papa is everything.


After the prayer Alexa chant prayer very solemnly. Every prayer she said was accompanied by tears running down her cheeks. Alexa felt something warm flowing in her heart. It felt very relieved like he had pulled out a heavy load that was pressing on his chest.


May Allah bless all of these good intentions. Aamiins.


The next day after returning home from campus Alexa and Lidya were about to go to the Mall to buy all the equipment Alexa needed for hijab.


Sisil, who saw Alexa and Lidya, wanted to go and join them.


"Eit... Where are you going?" ask Sisil.


"You go to Mall Cempaka" replied Lidya.


"Well?" ask Sisil again.


"Great job" ledek Alexa.


"Sandra is just like me. Follow donk... I am alone in the boarding house" said Sisil seduce.


"Yes already prepared sono, if long we stay yes" threatened Alexa.


"Eeeeh... I'm ready kog" Sisil snatched his pocket to store his wallet and then ran after Alexa and Lidya from behind.


They set off for the designated Mall by driving a Taxi and looking for what Alexa needs.


Sisil felt strange about the items Alexa bought.


"You're buying a lot of San's hijab?" ask Sisil.


"Why, trouble for you?" ask Alexa back.


"Ye.. that's aja sewot. I'm just San, sensitive like PMS again" replied Sisil.


"You also buy a lot of long-sleeved clothes. You want to wear San's hijab?" sisil asked curiously.


Alexa replied with a nod.


"Waaah great you are San. Tomboy guys can turn that drastic. I am aja ayu gini not able to wear hijab" said Sisil.


"Yes all need a Sil process is not instantaneous. Just so you try I'm sure you can" Lidya replied.


Lidya helps Alexa wear the right jab.


"Waaaah very beautiful yes San you if wearing a hijab" said Sisil amazed.


"Setial women are more beautiful when Sil wear hijab so we are ordered to close the aurat" replied Lidya softly.


Alexa is still busy trying her hijab over and over again.


"If so I want to wear a hijab also ah let it be beautiful" Sisil nyerocos.


"Huss.the purpose of wearing the hijab is not just to look beautiful. Before you wear the hijab condition your heart first. Strengthen the determination and intention, do not let in the middle of the way the hijab is opened again" Lidya tried to advise Sisil.


"Jilbabin your heart was your new Sil. Convince yourself first whether you are indeed ready to close the aurat" Lidya continued his words.


Sisil fell silent trying to digest Lidya's words.


"Mending you slowly Sil do not need to rush and do not because you want to follow along but purely from your heart that does want it" Alexa chimed.


"Alright, I will think about it" replied Sisil samb thinking.


That afternoon they were shopping quite a lot but Alexa was very happy and did not care about her savings drained a lot. He thinks he should do this.
