No Love Does Not Mean Red Lights
CH 121S

Tonight Ms Devi felt her heart empty at dinner alone.usually her husband was always at home when he came home from the office. But tonight when Ms. Devi came home early from the office, her heart was empty because there was only herself and a housekeeper at home this big.

Today she realized maybe her husband also often felt the same way, eating himself when he was busy with work so rarely there was time even just dinner together.

Ms. Devi put the spoon back and the gap saw the chair that her husband Burhan used.

***

The next day Ms. Devi sent a message to Mr. Burhan and invited him to meet at the cafe for lunch together.

During lunch the two were silent and not a word came out of their mouths.

"How have you been lately?" ask Bu Devi

"Thank God" he answered briefly and put food back in his mouth

"How many days have you not been home?" tanya can Devi

"Three days, right? I'll be home tonight" replied Mr. Burhan

"Wouldn't you go home from now on?" said Devi saw Burhan

Burhan stopped eating and looked at Devi.

"You mean?" mr. Burhan squinted his eyes

"Hufft... " Devi breathed

"Certain me mas" said Devi lirih almost inaudible

"You sure?" burhan asked looking at Devi sharply

Devi fell silent, trying to hold the crystal crystals so as not to fall, but the defense was in vain. Crystal threads that had been trying to be detained immediately flooded the corner of his eye.

After a night of contemplation from the beginning of the marriage, it turns out he never carried out his duties as a wife well.

Unwilling to be selfish and hurt the man she loves and has been with her for years, Devi decides to free Burhan.

"Yes, I'm sure. Divorce me!" said Devi sobbing

Seeing Devi cry, it is undeniable Burhan's heart felt sliced. Although he had been desperate for this divorce, but Burhan did not expect that Devi who was usually firm and would not budge suddenly became soft like this.

Burhan approached and rubbed Devi's sobbing back. Burhan also gives Devi a tissue.

"Are you okay?" ask Burhan

"No reward, I'm fine."

"Are you sure you won't change your mind?" burhan asked back

Devi shook her head and wiped her tears.

"I've been thinking about all this. I've also been looking at our wedding trip all along. And now that I realize, I was wrong. I've sinned. I will not be a selfish person anymore. I'll release your reward, may you be happy" Devi sobbed

Burhan hugged Devi in his arms.

"Please forgive me too, as a husband I failed to become a priest for our family. Whatever path you choose, I hope you are happy too. And hopefully your career will be brighter as what you want so far. I will wish you the best for Dev" said Mr. Burhan

At Mr. Herman's house

"Assalamu'alaikum" Burhan said

"Walaikumsalam Burhan" replied Ms. Retno

"Sister Herman where is brother?" Burhan looked through the room

"Papa was in the pesantren earlier, usually met the interview" said Ms Retno

"Sister Retno Tumben didn't come?"

"It was coming, but it wasn't. There's a complex mothers' study event later in the afternoon."

"Sister, Burhan was meeting with Devi and we've agreed to separate. The divorce trial will be held in two weeks" Burhan said

"Thank God it's like that, so you no longer need to be confused with two wives" replied Ms Retno

"Actually seeing Devi like that, Burhan's heart was also not hearty. For some reason, Burhan could see the regret in Devi's eyes and there was sincerity"

"Burhan, it's all happened. And everywhere that is called regret must be behind. You've made a decision so yeah don't even think about retreating again. Poor Wati right, if at a time like this you just return to see Devi. While Devi will not be able to blatantly be combined. Don't look back!" retno

"Yes, Burhan knows it" Burhan replied

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Aisyah and Danu

"Walaikumsalam, your favorite son and daughter-in-law has returned home. Here, baby sitting next to my mom"

Aisyah sat next to Retno

"Om Burhan is here ?" tanya Danu kissed Burhan's hand

"This, again confide in your mama" Burhan replied

"What do you think about?" ask Danu

"The divorce issue is to be tried in two weeks" Burhan replied

"It was only Devi herself who asked for a divorce"

"Whatever choose to live om Burhan, always involve Alloh" said Danu

"Yes Dan, now o'm sober. We can't do anything without the help of Allah, maybe the household om and aunt Devi messed up also because of the mistake of om Burhan who can't be a priest in the family. Now om realized, living a household is not enough just with love, but also need responsibility and religious knowledge as the basis of building a household that is in accordance with the Islamic Shari'a, he said, the household that Qurrotayun exemplifies is in accordance with what Rosulullah exemplified. Honestly, this om is happy with your household looking so harmonious" said Burhan

"We are also still learning om, learning to take care of each other and reminding them not to fall asleep. Because in the household it takes commitment and the most important thing to remember Alloh. If we love because of Allah InsyaAlloh we will not dare to play around with the name of marriage" said Danu

"Yes Dan, thank you for reminding Om, sometimes shame. This should be a role model but vice versa. You are younger but you deserve to be a role model" Burhan said

"Mind each other Om, if Danu is wrong om also have to reprimand Danu" replied Danu

Two weeks later

Judicially

Burhan and Devi have agreed to divorce. Devi accepted the court's decision and the distribution of the gono gini property in accordance with the judge's decision. No commotion and no objections. All received each other. After the hammer from the judge now both officially divorced and no longer husband and wife

"I pray that you will be happy" said Devi, who uses sunglasses to cover her puffy eyes.

In front of the religious court office after the divorce trial was over, Wati also apologized to Devi

"Bu Devi please forgive Wati"

"No longer need to apologize, may you be happy" said Devi passed

Burhan and Wati look at Devi to the point of no longer seeing her back.

"Mas, why do I feel so guilty about Devi? I've ruined your household" said Devi

"You're not entirely wrong, I'm wrong. It has all happened, May Allah forgive our sins" said Burhan

Today Abah held a ceremony of thanksgiving for the pregnancy of Ulya and Aisyah.

The event went smoothly, after the joint prayer event, the invited guests seemed to enjoy the dishes that had been provided

"Abah Aisyah did not think that she would make a celebration for us" said Aisyah

"Thank God there is a fortune and Alhamdulillah Abah wants to share happiness with them, Abah thanks you and Ulya InsyaAlloh will soon become a mother and Abah will become a grandfather" replied Abah happily

"Assalamu'alaikum Abah" said Firdaus and Fitri

"Fir Walaikumsalam, Fitri. Thank God you came" replied Abah

"Sorry we are late bah, because it was waiting for Fitri guidance first in the campus" replied Firdaus

"It's okay, how is Fit. smooth college?" ask Abah

"Alhamdulillah smoothly Abah" replied Fitri

"Fit, come with me for a minute, I have something to talk about. Abah, Mr. Fir, Aisyah there used to be the same Fitri yes" said Aisyah to refer to the sofa in the corner of the room. Abah and Fir agree

"Son Fir, Alhamdulillah Abah is pleased to see you married Fitri. Fitri is also Abah considered like his own child because indeed since they are Fitri High School is often here to play with Aisyah. So we're like family" Abah recounted Fitri High School and Aisyah enthusiastically

Fir seemed excited to listen to their High School story.

"Stupid is not expected. His intention is to propose to Ulya but meet his soul mate precisely at Ulya's wedding" said Fir smiling

"It is like that if Allah has destined someone to meet his soul mate, a thousand and unexpected ways"

Holy (God) who has created everything pairs – pairs, both from what the earth grows and from themselves, and from what they do not know” (QS Yasin : 36).

"Assalamu'alaikum Abah"

"Walaikumsalam Zidan, come alone? Your brother didn't come?" ask Abah

"Let's leave a message and an apology for Abah for not being able to come. Not feeling well" Zidan replied

"Is your brother sick?" ask Abah

"Just a little unwell, Bah"

"Syafakillah syifaan ajilan, syifaan la yughadiru ba'dahu saqaman. Meaning: “May God heal you as soon as possible, with a healing that does not hurt after.”

"Aamiin" Zidan answered as Abah recited a prayer for his Abinya

"Mas Zidan, are you coming?" ask Ulya

"It was Abah who invited Zidan Ul, because let it be how Abah did not want any more hostility. Now you're happy with each other's partners"

"Yes bah, it's okay. Ulya was glad Zidan came."

"Hopefully a healthy fetus was born safely Ul" said Zidan

"Aamiin" answered everything

"Thank you for coming to my wife's birthday" Niko reached out and Zidan replied
