Mayra's Heart Note
Meet gus Hilal

...~Happy Reading~...

After the Nolan family's return. In the morning, just after the dawn prayer, Maira again met with Gus Hilal. The two again chatted a little, because Maira had to finish her affairs with Gus Hilal so as not to make her wait too long.

“Assalamualaikum, Gus,” greeted Maira while carrying her face in her arms and bowing her head along with Khalifa.

“Waalaikumsalam, Humaira .. “ replied the man in blue glove with white cocoa clothes was smiling when he was returned by Maira.

“Gus, I—“

“Tell Maira, God willing I am ready to hear your answer,” cut Hilal's gus quickly as if you know what the girl he adores will say.

“I'm sorry Gus, I can't accept gus Hilal's invitation. Because the day after tomorrow, I have to marry Arga,” Maira answered still faithfully by bowing her head.

Gus Hilal smiled, to cover up his heartache. How not, he had waited a long time to be able to marry Maira. In fact, he was willing to keep his heart and distance for a day that was so beautiful later, the wedding day.

But who would have thought, that it turns out he is still defeated by an Arga. Argantara Nolan whom he had met several times while in Jakarta. Men are a little rancid and have little religion.

Yes, of course, if compared with the religion of the Hilal family, of course the Nolan family will be left very far behind. But, back again that it was Maira's decision and choice.

And Gus Hilal is not a selfish person who only thinks about his own ego. He can still think positively, maybe Maira is not his match.

“Alhamdulilah, it's okay Maira. If that is your decision, God willing I can accept it. And God willing, the day after tomorrow I will also be present at your wedding,” said Gus Hilal so soft and full of calm.

Maira raised her head, looking at Hilal's shady face so fixedly, yet for only a few seconds, the girl lowered her head back as she got a gentle smile from the man in front of her.

“I'm sorry Gus, I'm really sorry,” said Maira unconsciously felt a little tightness in her heart.

This was not the first time he had rejected someone's call to ta'aruf. However, for some reason when he heard the answer from Gus Hilal, it actually made his heart hurt.

He felt very guilty, and of course there was a sense of obstruction in his heart. Given that Gus Hilal is the son of kiai in Pondok pesantren which is managed with abi Mike.

Which , they've known for so long. Maira was a little afraid if later had to meet with kiai Abdul who was none other than the father of Gus Hilal.

“Hehehe , I told you it's okay Maira. In this world we have the right to choose. God gives us the sense to think and determine which path we will take. Leave all his equal Allah, inshaallah this is the best.”

“Married to God, for God willing, every step you will be accompanied by His riddho. Involve God in every step that you will take, and may this really be the best choice for you Maira.”

“Although we are not a match, I will still wish you the best, amen.” Imbuh gus Hilal long with a chest that feels a little tight.

Maira nods her head,”Amin ... And hopefully, later Gus Hilal will soon be met with someone who is destined for Gus Hilal. And clearly, the woman is a woman of God's choice who is much better than me.”

Gus Hilal only replied to Maira with a smile. Do not want to linger long, because Maira will also leave for Jakarta soon.

Eventually their meeting ended with Maira and Khalifa leaving first, leaving behind a Hilal gus who could only stare at Maira's back who was progressively walking away from her.
