Marrying a Muslim Woman
Chapters 104. May Istiqamah

At Surya Jaya Hospital, a beautiful doctor was seen examining his patients. It was Linda and Almaira also back to work again, but her meeting with Linda became very memorable.

After examining his patients, Almaira suddenly came into his room and made Linda feel happy.

"Almaira, are you back at work?" linda asked accompanied by a face of joy.

"Yes, Lin. How are you doing?" almaira asked as she sat in the chair opposite Linda.

"Alhamdulillah, fine. How are you?" linda asked because Almaira had been on leave for two weeks.

"Alhamdulillah, be in good health" replied Almaira and she felt something strange about her best friend. Almaira looks at Linda and looks for answers.

"God, Lin. You are so beautiful, from when did you wear these beautiful clothes? " asked Almaira and she realized that her best friend was starting to change her appearance.

Linda smiled. "It hasn't been long, since you took a leave of absence, have I worn it? From now on, I realize that closing the aurat is very important. Like you said a long time ago," said Linda who realized her mistake.

"Thank God, you can finally do it. May Istiqomah, Lin." Almaira smiles at her best friend, who considers Linda a family member. And so, he loved her very much.

"Aamiin, thank you, Almaira. Please forgive me also because I have just obeyed your words," Linda said as she bowed.

"Yes, it's nothing" replied Almaira, who kept smiling.

"But I was too late to realize it and only now can I close my aura even though it is not perfect," said Linda who also felt embarrassed because Almaira always reminded her with her old way of wearing. However, Linda did not obey him so only this time she realized it.

Almaira smiled again. "It's never too late, you dare to be a better self. That means you are not too late because Allah Subhanahu Wa ta'ala also still receives opportunities and doors that are wide open for his people who still want to repent and take the right path."

Linda seemed to understand all the explanations from Almaira and she embraced the body of her best friend with affection.

"Thank you for all the religious values that Maira has given me over the years" Linda said.

"Together, Lin. Fellow friends and Muslims, we must remind and help each other" Almaira replied and received a hug from her best friend with great pleasure.

"Lin, sorry, dad. Maira had to return to work, fearing being scolded by her superiors. The new time comes to work again, already lazy," said Almaira who was interspersed with jokes and laughter.

Hearing the word of the superior, Linda again remembered to Doctor Aditya. However, as much as possible Linda denied it.

"Yes, Maira. However, you should not be too soybean because it will not be good for your young content," Linda said to commemorate her friend who was pregnant young.

"Good, Lin. Thank you for reminding me," Almaira replied and walked out of Linda's room. Almaira went back to check on her patients.

It did not feel like the day had started late and Almaira chose to go home first because she needed enough rest, while Linda had to overtime because there were patients who would give birth.

"Lin, I'm going home first. I'm sorry, I can't wait for you" Almaira said in the hospital hallway with Linda.

"Yes, no papa, Maira. You're careful on the road, Dad. Uh, who's home, Almaira?" linda asked for fear that Almaira would go home alone.

"Just like Mas Alvian, he seems to be waiting for me in front" Almaira replied and made Linda smile.

"I'm saying yes, Lin. Assalamualaikum" said Almaira and Linda nodded.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." Hearing Linda's greeting, Almaira began to leave.

Arriving Almaira in the parking lot, Alvian was waiting for her and she immediately approached her husband.

"Assalamualaikum, Mas" said Almaira and took her husband's hand and kissed the back of her hand.

"Wa'alaikumsalam." Alvian answered the greetings from his wife and smiled.

"Not yet, just got here, Mas" replied Alvian and opened the car door for his wife so that she could easily get in her car. After that, Alvian also got into the car and drove his car.

Back to Linda. Now that it was six in the afternoon, Linda was handling her patients who had just opened four and Linda had to wait a long time, while the patient did not want to go home and remain in the hospital before her child could be born, the opening was four openings.

At the opening ten occurred at eight o'clock in the evening, and at that time Linda petrified the process of birth. In the end Linda managed to save the mother's child, while the mother was very happy and lying limp on the patient's bed.

For this reason, Linda is very happy about the presence of this newborn baby. At that time, Linda was very happy because the struggle of a mother was very big.

After finishing treating the patient and continued by the nurse and other doctors, then Linda can go home. But when he was going home. His car had a problem and it turned out that his car tires were flat so Linda could not use her car because she also did not carry spare tires.

Not far from there, Aditya sees a confused Linda. That way, he also approached Linda who also happened to be overtime because there was an operation.

"Doctor Linda. What's going on?" tanya Aditya and Linda also turned her gaze to Doctor Aditya.

"Here, my car's tires are flat" Linda replied, a little confused.

"Oh, are there spare tires?" aditya asked, she intends to help Linda.

Linda shook her head and Aditya was silent for a moment. "Then, Doctor Linda is with me. Let me anterin," Aditya bargained to Linda.

"Eh, no! I can take an ojeg or a taxi" Linda refused because she did not want to trouble Aditya.

"It's nine o'clock at night, public transportation is rarely passing. Moreover, you are a woman, not good on your own in these nights," said Aditya because the streets are almost deserted.

Then Linda thought for a moment and accepted an offer from Aditya. "Alright, I want to be among the doctors, but afraid of being troublesome," replied Linda who just lowered her head.

"No, it's already night anyway. Leave your car here first, I'll have a mechanic come here to fix your car," Aditya and Linda said.

That way, Linda got into Aditya's car and things went quiet before Aditya said anything.

"Lin, why are you going home like this?" ask Aditya. Now he is back with his usual language because he is no longer in the hospital environment.

"There was a patient who gave birth. So, I went home the other night," Linda and Aditya answered, knowing the cause.

"Oh so, it's worth it."

Silence returned, but halfway through, Aditya asked Linda for her home address. "Lin, where's your house?" ask Aditya while looking at Linda for a moment.

"Ahead there. Brother just turn, there will be my house," replied Linda and Aditya nodded.

"What is this your house?" ask Aditya who saw it behind the glass of the car.

"Yes, that's my house." Linda came out of Aditya's car.

"Sister, thank you for driving me home" Linda said before entering her house.

"Sama-sama," Aditya replied.

"Sister Aditya want to go inside first?" ask Linda because she is not good together on these nights.

"Thank you for the invitation, next time I come here again, but I'm sorry. For this time, I can't because it's late at night" Aditya replied with a smile.

"Yes, be careful in the way, brother."

"Yes. Assalamualaikum," said Aditiya and return the car.

"Wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullaahi wabarokatuh" Linda replied after Aditya's car left and she entered her house.
