God's Choice of Mate
Forgive

The time is still showing at 03:00 in the morning, a very comfortable sleep time, plus a drizzle that since last night fell like hinting that the earth longs for drops of water.

When everyone was still asleep, this couple was awake with their respective busyness. Shafa who woke up because of the whimper of the baby who felt thirsty forced him to open his eyes and breastfeed the 21-day-old baby. The new habit of baby Am, he will wake up along with his father who wants to carry out his night worship.

Mas Rayyan diligently tahajjud his. Pantesan yes I used to be very spiffy her clepek-clepek the same her. This must have been because every day in the middle of a third of the night.

Baby Am who is in her mommy's timang-timang looks calm again. After being satisfied to drink milk, there is no other choice but to go back to sleep or wake up until the morning with a mouth fiddling that sometimes laughs and smiles by itself. Whether what the little baby was thinking that was clearly present, his cries and laughter are now a separate entertainment for Shafa and his small family.

The cup! A kiss landed on Shafa's forehead. Rayyan immediately took over the baby who was awake in the lap of his wife. He whispered the sentences containing prayers to his little son and then left them in his crown.

"Anything Am mas? Rich mbah dukun aja pake inflatable-blown. Lest I used to be blown too if sleeping ampe so bucin so very same mas Rayyan?" Shafa squinted his eyes following every move the young papa made to his son.

"It's in the doain baby, so as to be Sholeh's son, huh son?" He said while trying to talk to the tiny baby.

"If Shafa, let it not be blown is definitely a clamps" Reply without taking a look from the tiny baby.

"Why?"

"Because every day you're stuck in a third of the night like this"

No more racing bikes, playing tikung-bikung.

"Buck!"

"Don't you like gombalin? At the time of his wedding, Mr. Briyan said he wanted to be in a wombal"

"No! That's what I want time in the stomach"

"So don't want to?"

"So!"

"Related?"

"Mas, if you want a dreadlocks, it's quick to say. It didn't take much nanya" Shafa pursed his lips in annoyance.

"Mas can't be a dreadlocks. This is what"

THE CUP! He kissed Shafa's lips at a glance with his mischievous gaze

"Mass uh, pervert!!!" He strangled Rayyan's hand.

"If you don't m*sum there will be no Am among us dear"

"Udah ah, I want to nyiapin eat sahur mas first. Keep the real son, do not be made cry" said Shafa then moved to leave the father and child who was communicating in his own way.

About 40 minutes Shafa was in the kitchen making sahur meals for her husband. Although not enough a month he gave birth, it is not a barrier for him to continue serving Rayyan as usual except in terms of biological needs, Rayyan must wait until several months into the future.

"Food siaaaap" Shafa opened the door of the room to call Rayyan to eat sahur, but instead found the view very soothing to the eyes. He saw Rayyan sleeping again with her right hand clutching the bodies of Am and Zaf sleeping side by side.

Before waking them up, he captured the moment on his cell phone. One shot is enough to remember this moment.

"Mas, wake. Come sahur" He slightly shook Rayyan's shoulder. Rayyan is not the type of person who is difficult to wake up to. Not the same as he used to be, who needed extreme treatment to quickly wake up.

"Eh... Mas! Want what?" Shafa flinched as his body suddenly pulled and fell in Rayyan's embrace.

"You hug like this. Just for a moment" he answered with his eyes still closed.

Shafa enjoys her husband's gentle embrace while paying attention to the sublime-goals of the shady face that always make her happy. Can't imagine what happens if one day he can no longer look at the cool face of his heart. Ah, maybe he'll go crazy.

Shafa shook his head, throwing out all the negative thoughts that suddenly popped into his head.

"Mas, spit it out." Said Shafa who was already feeling tight because of the crush on his chest.

"1 minute" he said as he tightened his embrace, inhaling deeply the scent of the body that had always been an opium to him. The smell she always missed. A scent that never gets bored in his kiss.

"I Love You Mom"

THE CUP! Before he finally let go of his embrace.

"Well, why are you hugging mommy?" The sound was enough to make the two of them look at each other and look at each other simultaneously.

Am and Zafran are awake and are watching the face of a dumb mommy and her father who was caught off guard while making out.

"Honey, Aunt Lilis wants to come see Am. Does Shafa allow it?" Ask Rayyan. Currently they are relaxing in the living room which is a new favorite place to two after the back terrace. Towards the holiday Rayyan can be a little more relaxed because the working hours on campus are slightly reduced. Some courses have already been completed in the exam, making it more time at home.

"Mas knows shafa is still hurt, but staying away and hating him will not make Shafa's heartache less. It will increase with our sins. It's not good to keep a grudge, honey. Because it could be a liver disease for Shafa." Rayyan said as she gently stroked his wife's head.

"Masa? Don't believe ah. There is no evidence" said Shafa. He was accustomed to hearing the arguments Rayyan said to strengthen his words.

"Sadly, he who forgives and holds the breast shall be forgiven by Allah. Allah even mentions it in the Qur'an Sura An-Nur verse 22 which means, And let them forgive and have a breast. Do you not want God to forgive you? And Allah is forgiving, merciful . Does Shafa not want to be forgiven for his sins?"

"Yes, let alone my sins, it will be mountainous"

Although not visible but I can understand if my sins are very much. Especially sins in the past. Oh my God I feel koto**r. O God with me forgive aunt Lilis may You forgive also my past sins.

"Why do you love?"

"Ah, no papa. Yes, I have asked Aunt Lilis to come, and iftar here. I'll cook later" Shafa said. He tried to defend himself to forgive aunt Lilis, the rest let God set whether he was sincere or just theatrical.

Rayyan smiled happily at Shafa who had forgiven his aunt.

"God willing, my wife" he said, rubbing Shafa's cheek

"What will I want to masakin what?"

"Whatever Shafa cooks must be the mealtime" Shafa screeched at her husband's answer, which has always been that way since the newlyweds until now have children.

"Mas, if I'm that, mas request dong what cake is that. If I'm annoyed, I'm sure the water. Wanna?"

"Surely you just want some water?" Rayyan raised next to her eyebrows making Shafa frown.

"Why?"

"Shafa isn't tempted by big rewards?"

"Huh? What reward?"

"Who feeds the fasting person, he will reward him like the fasting person, without diminishing the reward of the fasting person in the least." (CHR. Tirmidzi. 807, Ibn Majah no. 1746, and Ahmad 5:192)"

"Indeed, Shafa does not want to get rewards like fasting even though Shafa is not fasting?" Rayyan asked as she looked at the beautiful face of her wife.

"Yes want! This is why dong mas Rayyan. Don't be no matter how grandiose" he replied, sounding annoyed.

"Yes, I want to eat pecel rice, can't you?"

"Huh? Pecel rice?"

"Yes... Same fried gurame. That's it" he answered. Shafa is a mangosteen. Honestly, to make pecel he himself has never been, but that does not mean can not dong. Shafa spirit!!!

At exactly half-five in the afternoon, Shafa had finished his cooking. He makes pecel spices like Rayyan's wish and also the gurame that lives in the fry by bi Lastri after he seasoned. Not to forget he also made clear vegetables spinach and sweet corn and fried shrimp for Zafran.

"Sir, this is a lot of fish indeed who wants to eat?" Ask bi Lastri. Usually Shafa only prepared for Rayyan and Zafran. Because ART who like spicy food will cook their own food with ingredients in the refrigerator. Shafa and Rayyan never discriminate food for their ART.

"Tante Lilis and Yola will open here bi" he replied calmly, as if there had never been a problem between them.

"Mak Shafa is serious? Not Miss Lilis - -"

"I've forgotten it bi. Don't let me go again so I can be sincere" Shafa replied while washing his hands.

"O Allah is Gusti! Sister Shafa turned out not only beautiful face, but also her heart. Aunty alone who others are still hurt by their actions to mbak, but mbak Shafa has even forgiven" said Bi Lastri, accidentally dropped his tears remembering what happened to Shafa at that time.

"Ih, cry huh? Cancel the fast tablets" Ledek Shafa while chuckling at the lastri bi which actually looks so sad.

Shafa is preparing to wear his veil after being told that Lilis' aunt is already in the living room with Rayyan. She just finished bathing and nursing Am.

Bismillah... May what I do today be the cause of my past sins and ease my difficulties in the future.

Shafa comes out of the room holding Am, he has raised his heart to forgive aunt Lilis and Yola. Even though it is painful, though it is severe, is not Allah all-forgiving? Why is a despicable and sinful man proud of his pride and selfishness?

"Shafa" The first word Shafa heard as he appeared before Yola and Lilis. Shafa gives Am to his father. While Shafa smiled towards Aunt Lilis who was already standing with teary eyes.

"Aunty how are you?" Shafa reached out his hand about to kiss the hand of aunt Lilis but he had not had time to touch her hand he was directly embraced by aunt Lilis.

"Sheaf... Forgive aunty son, sorry aunty" he said with a cry.

"Aunty, already. Shafa has forgiven aunt" said Shafa who returned the hug of Aunt Lilis.

Aunt Lilis grew sobbing and tightened her embrace.

"Aunty, don't you want to see Am?" Said Shafa so that Aunt Lilis immediately let go of a hug that began to stifle her chest.

"Hiks... Can aunty see a grandson taante" He said still sobbing. Shafa nodded in agreement. Aunt Lilis immediately approached Rayyan who was carrying Am who was on the floor with a thick blanket on the lower part of her body.

"Sister" Yola's voice appeared stammered. He did not dare to raise his face.

"Sister has forgiven you as well as Yola" Shafa hugged Yola who looked scared as she squeezed her fingers.

"Sister Shafa.hu.hu.hu.hu hiks... Forgive Yola brother" Tangisnya broke as Shafa airily hugged her.

"I'm sorry Yola, I'm sorry. Yola promises not to hurt sister again hiks"

"Yes... Brother already forgave Yola" Shafa replied as he rubbed Yola's paddle.

"God willing, Ray, he was exactly with you when he was little, it was almost no different if his nose was like yours" Aunt Lilis looked at Am with a teary face, happy to mix.

"Am more handsome, right auntie? His father's nose is pug, while Am mancung" said Shafa dilute the atmosphere that had haru blue. Aunt Lilis nodded with a smile looking at Am who was so handsome.

"If it's big, it must be a photo copy of his father" said aunty Lilis who still looks at Amr intensely.

"Let's tan, just go inside, Shafa wants to break the fast first."

"I'm helping brother?" Tawar Yola who was greeted nod by Shafa. He tries to re-establish a rapport with Yola and Aunt Lilis, because later in life we never know what will happen. It could be that the person you once hated is the person you will love later.

"You didn't choose Shafa as your wife Ray. Aunty just found a woman as sincere as she. Aunty thinks Shafa will never forgive aunt. But his heart was so big. Aunty really regretted ever accusing her of a no-no" Aunt Lilis looked at Shafa and Yola who were walking towards the kitchen with haru gazes.

"It wasn't Ray who chose auntie. But God chose him for Rayyan. Shafa is God's chosen mate for Rayyan"
