God's Choice of Mate
Letting Go of Longing

Inside the princess cottage they were busy talking while making flower brooches from ribbons and flannel. Previously Shafa has downloaded several video tutorials to make various knickknacks and accessories and then teach them to santri-sntri princess in their spare time. They were all very enthusiastic and enthusiastic.

"Assalamualaikum" Sapa a newly arrived santri.

"Waalaikum salam" they answered simultaneously.

"Neng Bilqis and Mbak Shafa are called abah in ndalem." Said the santri.

Without waiting for long Bilqis and Shafa immediately stood up. The habit that is always instilled by abah to the students is, what comes immediately when called without having to ask why? what was? And other.

Shafa and Bilqis rushed towards the main house. The two of them went straight into the middle room.

"Assalamualai----" Shafa's greeting came to a halt when he saw the figure of the man sitting cross-legged next to the middle of his head looking at him.

Shafa!

Degs...Degs...Degs...

His feet were heavy to move forward. He took one step back.

Even the mother who was there, could not believe seeing it. He could only close his mouth while firmly gripping his father's arm.

"Gatma!" Rayyan immediately ran up to Shafa and knelt before him.

This must be a dream! Your father can't be here, can he, son? Shafa muttered who still could not believe what he saw. Even he had unknowingly dropped the phone in his grasp.

"Dear, I'm sorry! I was wrong, I have sinned against you and our son. I beg you to forgive me. I'm sorry I hurt you. I regret not listening to your words" Rayyan said with sobs. He was still kneeling before Shafa holding both his legs. Shafa just kept silent. His gaze was empty, only his tears were flowing unstoppably .

"Please Shafa, I'm sorry. Don't leave me again. I can't take Shafa, I can't. Please don't share me with our son." His impression with an increasingly violent voice.

"You can punish me anything, you can hit me as much as you're happy. But I beg Shafa, please don't leave me!" He said again, ventured to touch his wife's hand.

This was the first time Rayyan had cried like this. He was like a little boy who lived away by his mother. Mother and Father could not help but cry at the meeting of those who stifled the chest.

"Rayyan, wake up son" Abah approached them asking Rayyan to stand up.

"Shafa, remember last night's words. Forgive your husband, son, he's just an ordinary man who also has a khilaf." Umi said as she stroked Shafa's petrified shoulder with a straight forward gaze.

"Rayyan won't wake up before Shafa forgives Rayyan abah." Said Ray, who was still kneeling before Shafa.

"Shafa, look at your husband son! He's really sorry for you. Give him a chance to explain everything." Bujuk.

Shafa dared himself to look at Rayyan kneeling before him. The look they see each other. The sad face he had longed for was now in front of him.

"I'm sorry Shafa" Rayyan's great-grandson. It was clear that his tears flowed from the eyelids of a person who used to often look at him with a cold gaze.

Shafa looked at Rayyan with quivering lips, He was unable to hide the feeling that was bubbling in his heart. Rayyan tried to get up and without warning he immediately hugged his wife. His crying spilled back as he grabbed the body that for a month made him eat bad and sleep not soundly. Slowly Shafa returned Rayyan's embrace and both sobbed in the novelty mixed with longing.

"Don't go again, son. Poor your husband. You have misunderstood. Rayyan has never betrayed you, she never wanted your love son" said the sobbing mother.

Abah and Ummi were also moved to see the meeting.

"That's her daddy's grandpa baby in Shafa's belly huh Bah?" Tanya Bilqis who has since gawked at the scene like in the cinema that aired on the tv station with the icon of flying fish.

"Yes, Bilqis made them tea first" Umi's orders were his grandchildren.

"Thank God you finally met your wife Rayyan." Said brother, while patting Rayyan's shoulder who was still reluctant to release his embrace.

"Here, his embrace later. Now we sit down. Rayyan, you need to explain something to your wife so she doesn't misunderstand" Dad said.

Rayyan catches her arms and leads Shafa to sit next to her. His handle did not come off, still clasping tightly onto Shafa's hand.

Shafa just looked down, his feelings mixed between haru, sad, happy and still there is pain.

"Sir Kyai, has Shafa been here all along?" Dad asked to open the conversation after the dramatic scene earlier.

"Right, a month ago Ummi met with Shafa at a mosque after coming home from health control. He looked pale and was crying alone. He said he wanted to go find peace, finally ummi brought him here" said Abah.

Hearing your words, guilt re-engaged his heart. He kissed Shafa's hand and repeatedly apologized.

"Thank you, you have been receiving and keeping Shafa all this time" Rayyan said with sincerity. He was grateful that Sjafa was in a safe place with good people.

"All by the permission of God, son. You need to remember that nothing happens on this earth but by the permission of Allah. Even the leaves that fall to the earth are all by Allah's permission. Your accidental meeting, then forced to marry and separate and then meet again with the permission of God. Both the village of the soul mate and Abah and Umi, are just intermediaries that God sent to bring you back together. There is no coincidence, all have been outlined by the owner of life. Never be tired of asking and pleading when you are in doubt. Hopefully after this, nothing can separate you except death which will certainly greet every living creature." Abah.

"Thank you, man"

"Darling, we're going home, huh? There's no more Aunt Lilis and Yola in our house. They know all their bad intentions. From the very beginning I must hear your words. Sorry about Yes?" Rayyan looked at Shafa inside. Shafa was still silent and lowered his head. There are still things stuck in his heart that Rayyan has not explained.

"And concerning Nisa, Mas dared to swear by Allah for the sake of Rasululloh, Mas never had any intention to pray for Shafa. Shafa is the only one I love, Shafa and our son everything. I don't need anything else" Ray said. Shafa still has no voice. He was not satisfied with Rayyan's words.

"Shafa please look at Mas! I miss you so much. Oh yeah, about Nisa you saw back then. At that time in an emergency, Nisa had a fight with Yola and Aunt Lilis. Yola pushed him to the point of bleeding and caused him to lose his baby. Me and Mom just helped him no more." Light again.

Inalla...Nisha.

Hearing Rayyan's last words, Shafa immediately raised his head to look at Rayyan. Trying to find lies in his eyes, but all he saw was a sad look filled with regret.
