Asma again live her day as a wife and santri, she is happy with her role, what's more the day Bilal increasingly shows her great love for her, certainly not only on his, but also on his first wife.
Just like Khadijah, Asma also felt jealous when Bilal had to spend time with Khadijah, what else she was the type of girl who was jealous and she already loved her husband very much.
He was happy when Bilal was with him, but he was also sad because Bilal could not be completely his. And when jealousy and pain perch in her heart, Asthma will immediately remember her brother's advice. Being sincere and grateful is the key to getting her happiness.
How else, that's the way of life he took his mind
And the more days, the wider the distance between himself and Khadijah.
Asthma doesn't know how it happens, but that's the truth.
Even Khadijah did not understand how he and Asma now had a distance, it just happened.
No arguments, fights or anything. Both of them are just the same just silent, and harbored their own feelings, and maybe silence is what creates the distance between the two.
"Darling... Zahras..." Asthma opened her eyes as she felt a touch on her shoulders "It's noon, you're late for school" her husband's soft voice sounded.
Asma also squirms and tries to open his eyes that feel heavy, he fell asleep after the dawn prayer because all night he stayed up late to learn and memorize his book deposit.
"Let's get up and go take a shower"
"Em can I skip school today?" asked Asma then he yawned, he was really sleepy.
"Well, I paid for your school and you want to skip? My money came out in vain if so, let's get up quickly!" her husband's orders that made Asma pursed her lips and looked upset.
"Once, Bilal. Yes, please, dear. I was really sleepy" asked Asma to warm up and call her husband's love, who knows Bilal was devastated, he thought. But Bilal instead lifted his body and brought Asthma to the bathroom making Asma cry out in protest. Not until there, Bilal immediately turned on the shower to make Asthma immediately soaked and of course his drowsiness disappeared instantly.
"Bilal.." cried Asthma upset, While her husband was just laughing.
"Never sleepy again, right?" asked her husband and was about to come out but suddenly Asma pulled her up until both of them were equally flushed with water.
"Zahra, I've taken a shower" Bilal protested
"Biarin" replied Asma and he deliberately encouraged Bilal to stand right under the shower "Mandi also tuh kali" gritted with annoyance, Asma also wanted to go out of the bathroom so that her husband finished his bath first, but now Bilal who pulled him up to Asma hit Bilal's body that had been soaked.
"Reprin, Bilal. You speed up the bath, I just took a shower" he exclaimed trying to escape but Bilal even more clutching her.
"Did you miss me?" asked Bilal suddenly made Asma's expression immediately turned stiff and he no longer tried to escape "I can see in your eyes you miss me, Zahra" bilal said with his heavy voice, because he also missed his Zahra after he had to spend time with his first wife. Asma misses her so much, even though they are always together during the day, but when she cannot sleep in Bilal's arms at night, Asma becomes so longed for her.
Asma could only bow and did not dare to answer, even though he and Bilal had been united as husband and wife for a long time and Bilal had often touched her, but Asma was always nervous and ashamed of her husband. Bilal flanked Asthma's chin with his finger and made Asma look up, under the water like this, his Zahra really looks very beautiful.
"Did you miss me, Zahra?" bilal asked once more and he stared intensely right in both Asthma eyes, slowly Asthma nodded.
"I miss you, miss you so much" she said later in a very soft voice, Bilal smiled faintly and he immediately spoiled his lover with a touch of his affection.
"I've always missed you, too, Zahra. So it's mine, and it's mine, baby"
"I belong to you and I already have you, my husband"
And the unification of love both of them happened again as the opening of the second day and also their encouragement.
Bilal did not allow Asma to skip school, but what he did of course automatically made Asma late to school.

Bilal who has a teaching schedule today went to school with his wife, and along the way his wife continues to grumble because it must be punished again because of being late.
"It's only a few minutes late, dear" said Bilal trying to comfort his wife.
"For you anyway" exclaimed Asma with her face bent.
"Kok me? You're the one who invited me to shower together"
"When do I take a shower?"
"Indeed, but you pulled me and got me wet with water" and Asma could no longer defend herself because it was true.
"Oh yes, our house is almost finished, stay in the clean and I have also bought some home furniture, but not everything, later we shop together yes" said Bilal with a radiant face, because it seems Bilal is happier and more enthusiastic than Asthma to immediately occupy their new home.
"Yes, but if you are not busy" replied Asma, he also can't wait to get out of the house now and build his own household with Bilal.
"Yes, honey"
Bilal escorted Asma to her schoolyard, and she immediately jumped down from her car and ran towards her class. He knocked on the door and said his greetings.
As usual, Asthma is still allowed to enter, but Asthma does not want to make her friends jealous if she gets special treatment, so she chose to take lessons from outside the classroom.
"Em Asthma misfortune, Ustadzah" he replied forced to lie, it is impossible also to tell the real reason?
"Pair the alarm next time" exclaimed Ustadzah "Yes, please stand outside until my lesson is over" and Asma immediately followed his teacher's orders.
Bilal, who was deliberately paying attention to the Asthma class, finally saw his wife was punished, but he did not mock her as before, and Asma did not look at her angrily. But the two looked at each other and revealed a faint smile and they looked at each other. It feels like Bilal continues to pay attention to his wife, but he also has to go teach to the santri putra class.
Bilal looked at Asma and signaled that he should leave, and Astma nodded and replied with a smile that Bilal always liked.

"It feels like bad luck is possible" Imel said while thrusting a bowl of meatballs at Asma as well as Nora.
"I thought so too, Mel. Cook the people of his house without getting Asthma, right?" connect Nora.
"Yes I was bad luck, I was awake, but I was still sleepy and sleeping again" replied Asma, he did not think it was just because the misfortune of his two friends was even introginya so.
But considering how she started her day so beautifully, Asma involuntarily smiled and she seemed to be blushing. And of course it was caught off guard by Imel, he who was also a wife and had been a newlywed, certainly can guess what happened by looking at the expression of Asthma.
"He was bad luck, Ra" said Imel arrived which made Nora lift next to his eyebrows.
And Asma nodded quickly to convince her friend.
In the afternoon, as usual every Thursday there will always be a general study, and Asma knows who filled her study today is her husband, and her husband, because Bilal had said it this morning and he asked Asma to wait for him so he could go home together.
And when the study took place, Asthma deliberately sat on the back, because if in the front row, she often heard friends who behind her whisper whispering about her.
Asma and Bilal steal a glance and throw each other a smile, both of them like a couple who just made up. Even Asma did not focus on her explanation because she focused more on explaining her.
Imel who realized the behavior of Ustadz and his friend was also cleared his throat.
"Ehem, focus on the same material, Neng. Don't be the same who gives matter" Imel's seductive tease makes Asthma wrong.

Khadijah and Asma ate dinner first because Bilal never went down.
"Aspie..." Call Khadijah slowly.
"Hmm?" Asma answered without looking at Khadijah.
"Mas Bilal said, you asked to stay with Ummi, why?" ask Khadijah who still wants to know the real reason why Asma wants to stay apart with him, is because Asma still wants to live his life as a santri or there are other reasons.
"Oh that, just like Mommy who must be jealous every day see Bilal with me, so I must be jealous of Bilal with Mommy" Khadijah was stunned and did not expect Asma to answer honestly that "Again, Mbak really want us to stay apart right?" asma continued, which made Khadijah more and more unable to say the word "We really can not stay one roof, for the good of our own hearts"
"Asma, who says I want us to stay apart?" khadijah asked curiously, because he never said that to anyone even to Bilal though because Bilal first told him that Asma wanted to stay apart.
"I didn't overhear Mom's cousin and Ustadzah Mila's conversation"
"Actually that's not what I mean" Khadijah said fearing that Asthma might be offended or ill-judged about her
"I understand" Asma replied quickly and he seemed to be relaxed with the chatter. While Khadijah seems wrong what else Asma speaks frankly.
"Did you say that to Mas Bilal? That I want us to stay apart?" khadijah asked half a whisper, Asma who heard Khadijah's question immediately smiled wryly, she did not expect Khadija to ask as if she was a wife who would pit her husband with his other wife.
"I'm not that bad" Asma replied casually then she immediately sipped her water and without saying another word, she immediately went up to her room, she said, and coincidentally on the stairs he passed Bilal who was about to go down.
"Loh, did you eat it?" bilal asked his wife.
"Have" answered Asma briefly then he left Bilal.
Bilal soon followed Khadijah for dinner.
"What's wrong?"asked Bilal to Khadijah, what else he saw Khadijah's expression which also seemed a little tense.
"What's up" said Khadijah and continued to eat as well as Bilal.
