I Was the Second
Fourteen

Rayhan and Zia get in the red Baleno car. Zia sat next to Rayhan who was behind the wheel.

"You didn't eat Zi much, want to eat dinner again?" rayhan asked, breaking the silence in the car.

"Sir, where are we going?" ask Zia.

"To your home" Rayhan said.

"Is your home ready? He said Mba Al still has renovations,"

"Alhamdulillah is done Zi, I want you and I can get used to the house more, also we know each other more deeply," said Rayhan.

"Ah, yes Mas," Zia just looked at the streets, only occasionally glancing at Rayhan, nervous.

Rahyan parked her car in the parking lot of a shopping mall.

"Cock here Mas," Zia who was confused, instead of going to their house, but Rayhan instead took her to the shopping center.

"Your house is new, the refrigerator is empty, food is not there, we are shopping" Rayhan said.

"Okay Mas" said Zia.

Rayhan offered two debit cards to Zia.

"This is for monthly shopping, home needs, and school as well as Maryam pocket money, this one is for you to buy powder and your personal needs Zi, use it well, yes" said Rayhan.

Zia hesitantly received the two cards, then kept them in her bag.

"Yes Mas, jazaakallaahu khayran," said Zia.

"Wa jazaakillaahu khayran, we go down yuk," said Rayhan then get off the car first.

Zia was still in the car, tidying up her hijab and wearing her veil, without her expecting Rayhan to open the door for her. Zia got out of the car immediately.

"Please Mas," said Zia who smiled behind her veil, such small attention was able to make Zia's cheeks blush red, maybe she would be very embarrassed if not covered by the veil, because Rayhan would see her blush.

"Yuk," said Rayhan as he clasped Zia's hand. Zia was surprised to make, they were indeed husband and wife, but until now they were not too familiar with each other, so it could be imagined holding hands with the opposite sex who was still unfamiliar.

Rayhan was actually also still awkward, but he tried to get used to Zia, because all this time only Alfina touched Rayhan.

Together, they pushed the empty grocery trolley. As it passed through the fish and meat section they paused for a moment.

"Do you like fish, chicken, or beef, or are you vegetarian?" rayhan asked, Najma smiled and answered Rayhan's question.

"Vegetarians? I forgot what I was bribing?"

"Oh yeah, hehehe I'm sorry I forgot," Rayhan just remembered, last dinner he gave Zia chicken meat.

"So you like chicken?" ask Rayhan again.

"I like to eat fish, chicken will, but not as much as I like, beef will also be baso, rawon, just not cooked in my house, hehehe,"

"Why is that? What's the difference between cooking beef anywhere?" ask Rayhan.

"I don't like the smell of Mas meat ever to vomit, so I don't like anyone cooking beef or goat in my house" Zia replied.

"Oh so, if it's goat meat?" ask Rayhan.

"Same, can't cook mutton in my house, and I can't eat mutton at all, rich is that a sin isn't Mas?"

"Then what does Rayhan like?" ask Zia.

"I like everything, but whatever you cook, in the Lord I will like" Rayhan replied.

Similarly, bath soap, facial soap, toothpaste, and so on they ask each other questions.

After getting monthly needs, they bring groceries to the car.

"Can you drive the car?" ask Rayhan.

"Can, but it's been a long time no drive" said Zia.

"Well, you drive, that's your car" Rayhan handed Zia the keys, and sat on the front passenger seat. Want to not change Zia who is sitting behind the wheel.

"Didn't you overdo me with the car?" ask Zia who started taking the car to their new home.

"You are also my wife, you get the same rights as Alfina, home, car, there is also a motorbike at home, I hope you like, but for the shopping money of course Alfina more yes, because the house we live in is bigger, and many children, many needs, but do not worry, if we have more children, I automatically add the money to buy," said Rayhan.

"Alhamdulillah jazaakallaahu khayran Mas," said Zia gratefully.

Rayhan, who was sitting on the passenger bench, was a little bit of a look at the woman he just married today. Zia who opened her veil since entering the car earlier, looks beautiful in Rayhan's eyes. Eleven twelve with Alfina. But Zia looked tougher than Alfina, probably because a hard life had forged her this past year.

They finally arrived at Zia's new home.

"In the meantime I open the fence first," said Zia to wear her veil and then intend to get out of the car. Rayhan holding Zia's arm prevents her from descending.

"Wait for Zi, just let me" Rayhan said, unbending his seatbelt and getting out of the car. Again Rayhan managed to make Zia blush. Zia then put the car in the garage. And Rayhan took down their suitcases of clothes and groceries.

Zia entered her new home, in the living room she was stunned by what she saw, the house with white shades that looked luxurious to her. Then he walked to the living room, where there was a small playground for Maryam, next to which was Zia's sewing machine and her sewing equipment. Next to it is a dining room, kitchen and laundry room and bathroom.

Rayhan put their groceries on the dining table.

"The rooms are above Zi" Rayhan said.

"Ah yes Mas," said Zia.

"You tidy up the groceries, I'll take the suitcase upstairs" Rayhan said.

"Good Mas,"

"Don't you go long Zi, I'll wait upstairs" said Rayhan, who walked up the stairs carrying their suitcase.

Meanwhile, at Alfina's house...

Alfina put her children to sleep, that night Mary slept with Aisha and Fatimah. After making sure the three of them were asleep, Alfina entered Sulaiman's room seeing that her son had fallen asleep as well. Then Alfina entered Khadijah's room, apparently the elder was still awake, sitting in front of his study table opening the Qur'an and adding to his memorization.

"Not sleeping Dija?" ask Alfina.

"Now Mi" said Khadijah.

"May Immi sleep with you tonight, son?" ask Alfina.

"Yes ummi" said Khadijah, he knew his mother was in need of friends at this time.

If to be honest, Alfina did not dare to go into her own room, she was afraid of sadness and crying, then regretted the decision she allowed Rayhan to marry again.
