"Aisha's coming home from college?" greet the mothers of the neighboring complex.
"Ah yes ma'am, let me go first," replied Aisha kindly.
"I love pity if I see Aisha loh ma'am, what less try well Aisha, already beautiful, smart, friendly again. But a year ago, the marriage failed."
"Why is that why mom? What's the candidate doing or what?"
"Said the accident time travel business ma'am, until now no one knows how is the news."
Aisha faintly overheard the conversation of her neighbors after she passed them.
Aisha is learning to make peace with Azka's departure, learning to return to her normal life. Although he was trained, he tried to stay strong. But why does everything seem to deliberately remind him of Azka?.
Forgive me, O God, for it has been impudent to save the taste of Your creatures
And I know that this love is more worthy of my offering to You, the Exalted Owner of love
God make me a strong woman,
Women who are able to accept reality sincerely in the heart
If he whose name is written in Lauhul mahfudz for me, then ease our way
If he's not the one, though,
Make this heart stay okay
For I am sure Your plan remains the most beautiful
Unknowingly tears had soaked her sweet face.
Aisha is still faithful to meet the memories of one year ago, when the figure of Azka is not only a black shadow with no real appearance as it is in his imagination today.
"Can I still see you?"
"Will our story continue?"
"Or do you have to run aground in this way? "
"Until when will I continue like this?"
Brak ... Aisha threw away all the items on her bedroom dresser.
Aisha completely lost control when she remembered about Azka.
"Astagfirullah ... Aisha!" maya's screams stop Aisha's activities.
"Aisha istighfar dear," said Maya approaching Aisha.
"Aisha cape bu kayak gini continues, what should Aisha do?" Aisha sobbed while hugging Maya tightly.
"Propat Darling ... everything is not easy, but we try both well," said Maya comforting Aisha.

"Assalamualaikum ..." suddenly someone said a greeting.
"Waalaikumsalam ..." answered Aisha and Maya together.
"Astagfirullah .. what happened to you Sha?" asked Faris who immediately approached the two when she saw the items in Aisha's room scattered.
"What should I do with Faris?" pinta Aisha.
"You must be sincere Aisha, if Azka is your soul mate then she will not turn to anyone other than you" replied Faris gently.
"Why didn't Mas Azka really come back with me, Faris? Am I willing?" said Aisha parau.
"All choices are in your hands, not really memories that bind us, but we are the ones who deliberately always wallow in them" Faris replied.
"I know you never had any feelings for me Aisha, your love was only for Azka, the man whose disappearance always bothered you. Is there really no room for my name to be lodged in your heart?"
"Don't be too arrogant to close your heart to just one name Sha, because we never know what kind of destiny awaits us" Faris told Aisha.
"You never know what it's like to lose Faris" Aisha replied with a still remaining sob.
"You forgot I lost my Mother to my mother, Sha?" answer Faris raucous.
"Astagfirullah I'm sorry Ris, I really don't mean that," Aisha replied spontaneously.
"It's okay Sha, just relax who's rich" Faris replied calmly.
"Thank you Faris you've always been there for me, you've always been patient with my grievances" Aisha said, wiping away her tears.
"Whatever I'll do to you Sha."

The car driven by Faris divides the streets of Surabaya which is crowded with motorists who may be enjoying the weekend Air.
In her journey Aisha was more silent, only occasionally responding to the chat that Faris was making. The long passing of the rider quite seized the attention of Aisha, diverting her from the shadows of Azka who lately often reigned.
Without Aisha knowing secretly Faris was staring at her between the focus she was holding the steering wheel, with a glare that was difficult to interpret.
Aisha stared at her footing as Faris' car came to a halt in a large courtyard, her net staring at the magnificent domed building before her, instantly her heart cooled as Faris nodded her head inviting Aisha to step inside.
“There's a review well?” aisha asked before they parted at the entrance between a man and a woman.
Faris simply nodded with a smile, then followed Aisha who first stepped through a different door.
Aisha chose to sit in the front row, leaning on the pole that became the pedestal of the magnificent building she visited.
The longer the row next to him the more full by pilgrims who came back and forth, even adding up to a few rows behind him.
A well-built speaker with a tall body all the way up the pulpit, began a study followed by dozens of pilgrims who had been sitting solemnly in his place.
When God foretells something that makes us sad, rest assured that God is always there for us and is with us.
Sadness is part of human nature. No man can escape sorrow, including the prophets and apostles. Everyone almost certainly has experienced the name sad.
Nabi Ya’kub saddened by the loss of Prophet Yusuf ‘alaihissalam, Prophet Noah ‘alaihissalam saddened by the loss of his son and wife. Even Prophet Muhammad shallallahu ‘alaihi wasallam was sad when he lost his beloved wife and uncle, Abu Talib, so that the times were called “ammul huzni” (year of sadness).
However, the sorrow of the prophets and apostles did not transcend the limits and weaken the faith. This is different from the attitude of his people who sometimes do not understand the limits of sadness, too late in the turmoil, to the extent that there is a change in attitude and character significantly.
Usually, those who experience such circumstances are those who are arid in soul, weak in religion, and lack of knowledge, but great hope and imagination, so that when what he loves is lost, when what he really loves is lost, it's like he has no handle. There are screaming, stress, depression, even despair and suicide.
Allah subhanahu wata’ala gives motivation to the believers through His word: “Do not be weak, and do not be (also) you grieve, whereas you are the highest (degree) people, if you are believers” (QS. Ali Imran [3]: 139)
Aisha unceasingly removed her net end with the wet end of the hijab, how long the material delivered was always a hard slap for her.
He realized how arid and weak his soul was until he dragged on in sorrow just because of love, love for His creatures that should not exceed his love for the Supreme Owner of true love.
