Season 2: eps. 14.

After returning home from work, Arumi rushed home to see her brother.

Upon arrival at the house, Arumi sees Arin sitting in the guest chair.

“Assalamu’alaikum, Sister.” Said Arumi greeting her Brother.

“Wa’alaikumussalam, my sister is home.” Sahut Arin's.

“Wah, Brother make new model hair?” Ask Arumi.

“Yes, this is the latest trend, some friends of Sister also make a hairstyle like this.” Answer Arin. “Do you want to make a hairstyle like this too?”

“No, Brother.”

“Again if you make a hairstyle also no one will know it. You always wear a hijab.”

“Yes, of course. I also hope that Brother will wear hijab.”

“Huufftt.” Arin breathed.

This is not the first time Arumi has asked her to wear a hijab.

“Hmm, let's talk about your future husband.” Arin's speech melted the awkward atmosphere. “Can I see the potertnya?” Ask.

“Of course can.” Answer Arumi.

Arumi pulled the phone out of her handbag. Then show a portrait of Amir to Arin.

“Wah, pretty handsome. Although not as easy as Young Master Rizky.” Arin.

“For a difficult person like us, marrying into a rich family is an incredible achievement. No more hard work to make money. Every month just waiting for transfer from husband.” Arin said in his heart.

“Iya, Brother. Thank God.” Said Arumi who disperse Arin's daydream.

“Then, after marriage do you still have to keep working?” Ask Arin to find out.

“Emm, we have not discussed this issue kak.” Answer Arumi. “Oh yes, I almost forgot to tell Brother.” Arumi suddenly remembered with her impromptu marriage and Amir.

“What is it?” Arin curious.

“In shaa Allah I and Bang Amir will get married next week.” Arumi sumringah.

“What? Are you serious?” Arin looked very surprised.

“Iya, Brother. Brother doesn't mind, does he?”

“Of course not, My sister will marry the man she loves. How could I possibly object.” Arin said as she stroked Arumi's head.

“Aalhamdulillah's. I know my brother loves me very much.” Arumi hugged Arin.

Arumi was so happy to wait for her wedding day.

Three days later Amir and Arumi hand out invitations to their co-workers.

“Wah, it turns out that all this time you and Amir were dating secretly.” Nayya said to Arumi.

“No. It's not like that. We are not dating.” Arumi gave an explanation.

“Current age, who believes you guys aren't dating.” Dodi.

“True, where might you guys get married before dating.” Mirna Sahut.

“Yes, it's true what you said. But it's only for people like you who get married through courtship first.” Zila said in defense of Arumi.

“You mean? You insult us?” Ask Mirna cynically.

“Which words insult you? I'm just saying people like you get married through courtship first. As for Arumi and Amir, they know the limits, devoutly religious. That's why they got married first and then they dated. There's nothing strange about it.” Zila spoke at length.

“Well, what you say makes sense.” Nayya. “Again all this time I also never saw Arumi and Amir go on a date.” Further.

“Thank you Zila, already defended me.” Arumi.

“No problem, they just don't know.” Answer Zila.

“I'm sorry Arumi, I also suspected you before.” Nayya.

“It's okay, Nay.” Arumi Sahut.

After that they disperse and return to their respective work desks.

“Why did Amir not get to work today?” Ask Nayya to Arumi.

“I don't know either. He didn't say anything to me.” Answer Arumi. “Maybe there's something he needs to take care of outside the office.” Further.

“Oh, so. All right, let's get on with work.”

“Ok.”

In the hospital.

Zayn is seriously examining a patient with heart disease.

“Iya, Doc. I've been feeling better.”

“Then, the dosage of the medicine will be reduced. Do you have any more questions?”

“Nothing, Doc.”

“Good. Please wait for the medicine at the pharmacy.

“Thank you, Doc.”

“Sama-sama.” Zayn.

Then the patient came out of the room.

“Is there any more patients?” Zayn asked the nurse who helped him.

“Nothing, Doctor.” The answer.

“Good. I'll go straight home.”

“Good, Doc.”

The nurse then tidied up her desk and Zayn's desk.

As he exits his room, Zayn crosses paths with Nana.

“Doctor Zayn. Want to go home?” Sapa Nana's.

“Iya.” Zayn said with a joke.

“Can I have coffee with me first? There are some cases that I don't understand.” Take Nana.

“Doctor Nana, the cardiologist at this hospital is not just me. You can ask with a senior more experienced than me.” Zayn said, refusing firmly.

“Alright, I won't force.”

“Good.” Zayn said and left Doctor Nana.

Since she was in college, Nana has started pursuing Doctor Zayn. But Zayn never cared about it.

Zayn only focused on his lessons, and now he is also just focusing on his work.

“When will you care about me, Zayn? When are you going to look at me?” Nana was upset because she was constantly rejected by Zayn.

On the way home.

While driving a car, Zayn suddenly remembered Om Amir. She has not had a chance to meet and congratulate her on her marriage which is just a few days away.

He grabbed his phone and called Amir's number. But Amir did not answer.

“Hmm, maybe Om Amir is busy.” Her thought.

“I'd better think about a gift. What will I give her later at the wedding?”

“I'd better ask Ummi after arriving home.”

After driving for about thirty minutes, Zayn arrived at his home.

He honked to have security open the gate for him.

After getting inside, he parked his car and rushed into the house.

“Assalamu’alaikum, Ummi.” Zayn immediately looked for Alisya.

“Wa’alaikumussalam.” Alisya approached Zayn from the kitchen. “What's up, Son?” Ask Alisya.

“Ummi, I suddenly remembered to prepare a gift for Om Amir's wedding later. Does Ummi have any ideas?” Ask Zayn to the point.

“Oh, gift for Amir. You don't bother to think about it. Ummi and Abi have prepared it.” Answer Alisya.

“Really?” Zayn doesn't believe it.

“Iya, of course.” Alisya answered convincingly. “What you should think of is your marriage and Zara.” Further.

“That's it, I leave it to Ummi and Abi only, hehe.” Zayn cengengesan.

“Are you sure?”

“Yakinu. One hundred percent sure. Ummi and Abi must have prepared everything perfectly.”

“Hehe.” Alisya laughed a little.

“Ummi, I have permission to go to the room. Want to clean up.”

“Alright, rest too.” Alisya's Order.

“Good, Ummi.” Zayn.

Then Zayn went to his room and got ready to take a shower.
