My Cry and My Happiness Are In Your Home

My Cry and My Happiness Are In Your Home
Miscomprehension


POV Gus hafidz


"hafidz once promised, if I could close my aurat and learn to be a good Muslim, then hafidz would marry me"


my eyes were perfectly rounded when I heard what Yasmin said before Babah and umma


I didn't expect him to say anything I never said to anyone, including him.


"wedding?"


suddenly Nurain appeared from behind the wall


"yes, your husband promised to marry me when we were together in Turkey, and you remember we met a few times, even in restaurants we met. you think it's a coincidence? no, it wasn't a coincidence because your husband and I promised to see each other before, after your dinner"


nurain immediately looked at me with a look of disappointment.I can see if his eyes began to fill with tears, but he seemed to hold him back from coming out.


"don't baby, it's all a lie. Brother never promised anything to anyone including him, Brother also never had anything to do with him"


"well, just keep denying her hafidz. would you also deny, if you yourself gave me your home address? and are you also going to deny that we met that time at the restaurant after you delivered your wife?"


"BE QUIET ! I'VE NEVER PROMISED YOU ANYTHING, NOR HAVE I EVER HAD ANY RELATIONSHIP WITH YOU"


this was the first time I spoke in a loud voice especially in front of my wife and parents.


"honey, you have to believe me. All this is slander"


"what was it after nur went to bed that time that brother came out of the apartment?"


nurain asked with eyes that so implied disappointment to me


"Abang out just for__"


"what's the answer?"


"iya Brother came out, but Brother came out for__"


"when did you come out, you met him?"


once again, Nurain gave a question whose answer seemed to justify what Yasmin said about me and him.


"but Brother accidentally met him"


"not intentionally? so why didn't you tell me the same nur that Abang came out after sleeping? is that not intentional either?


"hafidz, is what the woman is talking about right, son?"


umma asked now


"no umma, hafidz never did what he said"


"we better sit down first, we talk carefully so that everything is clear and there is no misunderstanding between us"


the word babah tries to calm an almost chaotic situation.


"you sit down, baby, don't let emotions rule your heart"


"Luthfi into the first yes same aunt, play with santri outside"


"yes bah"


Lutfi complied and immediately left the living room.


"now try to explain to Babah who this girl is and why she came here to see you? did something happen between you guys?"


I also told him about who Yasmin was, how our meeting started, and where we met.


"there's something you forgot hafidz from the meeting story that night"


all eyes were on Yasmin when she said there was a story I had forgotten back then.


"you forgot, if that night before you went back to the apartment you hugged me and said that I could change my appearance so that you could be with me. You forgot that.


"but yasmin was not on purpose you know that right. and about what I said at that time was not about me, but__"


"but what bang? but you are ashamed to admit everything in the presence of umma and Babah? but Khilaf's brother did all that to her? if indeed Brother returned to the restaurant at that time just wanted to take the wallet that was left behind, why did you not tell me that Brother met him again, even Brother also had time to hug her before Brother returned to the apartment.why bang? Are you afraid that you misunderstand? or is it that you are afraid that your relationship is known by Nur?"


this was the first time Nurain looked at me with a gaze full of doubt, his tears kept flowing and it managed to make me feel very guilty.


"well, I don't want to make the atmosphere even more chaotic.I've come here well and I hope you as a good Muslim man, you know, as soon as you keep your promise and you talk to your wife well"


after shaking hands with umma, Yasmin immediately stepped away leaving behind the chaos and misunderstanding she had created.

"honey, Brother, please let's talk about this well. you don't cry anymore, brother can explain all of it. You get out of the bathroom first, so we can talk"


nurain then opened the bathroom that had been in his lock from the inside.


"honey, Brother would apologize if Abang did not tell the incident that night, because Abang thought it was not intentional and Abang did not want it to make you misunderstand Brother"


"nur does not know, who is lying and who is honest, but one who knows, currently nur is very disappointed in Abang.maybe if at that time you want to tell a direct story, maybe, nur's heart won't be as disappointed as it is now, and nur will fully trust his brother"


well, I was wrong for not telling Nurain when I had to go out to go back to that restaurant, and I was wrong for not telling the story.


I thought it was just an accident, and I won't be seeing Yasmin again either.


but it turns out that I was wrong, Yasmin even deliberately came here by telling all her lies in front of my family.


several times I met him, and it turned out that it gave more impression to Yasmin.


I know Yasmin had more feelings for me, she once said it in person, two days before I came back here.


but I rejected him right then and there, and I tried to give him an understanding that I was not his soul mate and he could get a good man someday, because she's a good girl.


I thought she understood my rejection, I thought she was a good woman, but it turned out I was wrong.


Yasmin was not an understandable woman, with her coming here creating a misunderstanding between me and Nurain.


even umma and Babah gave me a look of disappointment, even though they did not say it directly.
