Love Frame For Sarmila
CHAPTER 83

“And when My servants ask you about Me, Then My awe is near. I grant the request of the one who prays when he (really) prays to Me. So let them fulfill (all My commandments) and let them believe in Me, that they may always be in righteousness” (QS. Al-Baqarah: 186)

Many things that we want in life, many things that we expect to become reality, May it go as we wish. We never know what will happen, we can laugh today, tomorrow even the sadness that struck. There is an unexpected fate, it can happen unexpectedly. There is also a destiny that brings good luck because we depend on prayer. Prayer strands are always our hope as a bright spot in life. Prayer is always the focus of human life.

In the face of trials or trials of life, people need to be patient and must be sure that God will provide a way out. Weight or light test of life received, certainly save the wisdom that is very extraordinary.

About the test of life, of course we must think well with the plan of Allah SWT. We do not know what the wisdom behind the test of life is that greets us.

I've been through a lot these few days. A misunderstanding between me and Lala. Yeah, right Eva said, I was so fucked up back then. Messy looking at mas Danu who dropped several times. While he had to work, he became the head of the family. Head of the family for me and my sister. It was for the family home.

Ah, compared to what I'm going through, it feels like a heavy burden is on him. But he remains strong through his days.

And this afternoon we were able to bring her Danu mas back home. Let him take a break from his work routine.

"Mas, said Vishnu you can go home today," I said while sitting next to Danu.

"Well, can I ask you something?"

"What,Mas?"

"How did you feel when Ammar came? Yeah, you're probably surprised he could show up in front of us. Just like when I first came and worked at Diana's mother's house. Seeing Rubiah's mother seemed familiar, and I just remembered that she was the one who scolded you at the airport at the time."

"In the household there should be mutual openness. But why are you hiding all of this, Mom? are you afraid I'll turn to Ammar.

So much unbelief are you, Mas,"

"I'm sorry, Mila. I do this for fear of adding to the wounds in your heart. I know that you were such an outcast when the news of Ammar not coming to the wedding with Vika. I know you must be very traumatized by that,"

"And what is this, my friend? why didn't you tell me from the beginning about this?" the letter I wanted to ask Danu.

Mas Danu's reaction just lowered his head without daring to straighten his head. I thought he would admit it hard. I was no longer able to withstand the tightness in the chest. I have no power to endure what has been a restlessness all this time.

"Did Vishnu tell you everything?" I'm nodding. Of course Vishnu told me after I pressed him.

"Why are you keeping all this a secret, Mom? are you afraid I'll leave you as soon as you know how it is. No, Mom, I'm not leaving you.

We are not married based on love alone. Our marriage is built because of commitment. Open to each other.

I you know all about me good and bad. I'm always open in anything to you.

But why don't you ever open up to me about all this," I said everything I had in mind.

"So?" Jeez mas Danu just responded to my babble casually.

"So what, Mas? I am angry with you too. Why hide such a precarious matter from me? what do you think I am, my mother?"

A hand is around my waist. Of course with his habit of tucking his head back on my shoulder.

In this crucial moment he still had time to seduce me. At a time like my heart felt bad because he was trying to tease me. And I could never be angry with him. His hands were getting tighter hugging my waist.

And ....

"Let's say tonight I want it. Can you?"

"Mas, this is a hospital. Don't be that weird," I glanced right left. Afraid someone might look into my husband's crazy.

"I miss that time, baby," she whispered.

Jakarta, March 10, 2023

"Morning, Revo mas," said Yuni seeing a well-dressed young man passing in front of her.

"Morning, also mbak Yuni, his own tumben. Where's Vika?" ask Revo.

"Non Vika hasn't woken up yet, Mas. He likes Revo cooking. Thank you for making non Vika food,"

"Sama-sama Mbak Yuni, I am happy that sister Vika likes the same cuisine. I went to work first, Mom,

Oh yes, mbak Yuni, yesterday about Yusuf nanya is his rukiyya kak Vika still walking? if there's no change, he's asking for Vika's brother to be escorted to the boarding school again,"

"Alhamdulillah, non Vika has calmed down a little. And mas last night non Vika started praying again," Yuni told me.

His name is Revolution, he is 23 years old. Revo is currently working as a chef in famous hotels around central Jakarta. Its workplace is also neighboring with the largest wholesale center in Southeast Asia.

Revo has two years of occupying a contract adjacent to Vika's contract. It was from Sukabumi.

"Sir Revo thank you, yes the food is good," said Vika who appeared with a child-like behavior.

"Yes, Brother Vika. Later if there is time I make it again, yes," the girl nodded cheerfully.

"I go to work first, yeah," Revo landed a kiss on Vika's cheek.

"Sister Revo don't kiss me. Keep kissing me. Ammar will see him go again" said Vika.

"Let her go there is me" replied Revo waving at Vika.

"Mas Revo I ask do not love the same hope non Vika. Poor him, Mas Revo knew what I was telling you at the time. I beg you, Mas," pinta mbak Yuni.

Revo smiled slightly. He never gave the girl hope. But somehow since knowing the problems faced by Vika, he wanted to be a protector for the woman he had only known for two months.

"I give no hope to Brother Vika. The problem he was facing required a figure that could be his protector. And that's what I did for Vika," Revo said steadily.
