Pursuing the Duplicate Love of My Wife
47. Son-in-law sent by God

"Yes." Yeah." Mr. RT nodded vigorously, then glanced at Abi Hamdan. The old man's face looked so gloomy. "But it must also be with the blessing of both your parents, including your Abimu," he added, which made Abi Hamdan even worse.

"But, sir, Mr. Joe himself is non-Muslim. Where can we get married?" ask Syifa confused.

"Sir Jojon must convert to Islam later, Fa," replied Mr. RT, then turned towards Abi Hamdan. "How was Ustad's decision? About the status of Mr. Jojon himself .. it can be changed because this has entered the realm of obligation, he must account for everything."

Abi Hamdan was still frozen in his seat, he was still confused and unable to make up his mind.

A few minutes he had been silent, while Mr. RT and Syifa had been waiting for an answer. Slowly, Abi Hamdan stood up, then confirmed his folded coat and confirmed the sloping tip.

"I have to pray istikharah first, sir, give me some time, because it's very difficult" he said. It can't be that easy he releases his only child for a man who thinks is not good. Abi Hamdan must think hard, so as not to go the wrong way.

"Alright," said Mr. RT while standing. He tries to give understanding. "We're home now, and Ustad please think. But that doesn't mean Ustad can refuse my request, because it's an absolute one. Don't let me be disappointed following with the surrounding residents who consider Ustad as a role model."

After saying that, Mr. RT chose to step away without saying goodbye. Leaving them both and Sandi.

"You have made Abi ashamed, Fa," said Abi Hamdan. He turned to his son with a disappointed face. Even though he refused, but everything would not be possible. The decision of Mr. RT who became the leader in his place must be obeyed, plus Abi Hamdan also could not resist embarrassment if everyone knew how his son behaved, which he had been proud of. "Abi is really confused how, Abi is disappointed in you," he continued, stepping away.

"But, Bi, I dare to swear ..if not to commit adultery or whatever Mr. RT and Abi accuse" Syifa said. He ran after Abi and clung to his right hand, but the man brushed him off violently. His face looks so grim.

'How Abi can believe, while all this time Abi saw you like he was interested in Jojon. Should be ... from the beginning you want to be betrothed to Nak Fahmi. Let your marriage be quick and you will not do anything like this, Abi Hamdan said. His heart ached, for Syifa had betrayed his trust all this time.

"Do I have to swear by the Qur'an, so that Abi and Mr. RT believe?" challenge Syifa who is still running after. Abi Hamdan's footsteps were long, so they did not feel they had reached the side of the road in front of the hospital.

When he saw the taxi that had just passed by, Abi Hamdan immediately waved his hand. And when the four-wheeled vehicle stopped, he immediately went inside. So did Syifa who immediately followed him.

"Bi, how? I'm willing to swear by any means, as long as Abi and Mr. RT believe me" Syifa pleaded. Slowly he grabbed Abi's right hand, then clasped it tightly. Still trying to convince, if all the accusations are wrong. "You all just misunderstood. And it should be, Abi believed me. Since I am also sane, it is impossible to do something that is forbidden by religion" he added.

Abi Hamdan was still frozen with a rumbling chest. He chose to be quiet, because in addition to his head was very dizzy, he was also confused to respond to what the child said. I'm out of words.

Although Syifa swore, she herself was not sure if everyone could believe. Because they already have evidence that is from the 5-minute video. What is clear, if Syifa and Joe are in the room together.

Until home, in fact Abi Hamdan still felt silent, giving no response to Syifa.

However, he was suddenly immediately pulled by Abi Hamdan, to enter the room together. So he can't interact with Syifa.

"How, Bi? What did Syifa and Mr. Joe say?" ask Umi Maryam curious. She sat on the bed watching her husband changing clothes.

"Syifa is not. While Jojon fainted, "Abi Hamdan replied riled up.

"Sir Joe fainted? How can you, Bi?" Umi Maryam was surprised to hear that.

"Yes." Yeah." Abi Hamdan nodded. "He ran out Abi tonjok until he bled. Abi is very emotional." Closer to his wife, then sit on the mattress next to him while massaging his forehead slowly.

"Keep, now what, Bi? Does Mr RT believe?" Umi Maryam grabbed a glass of water on the nightstand. Cover on it he took, then the object was handed over to the husband. Abi Hamdan looks tired, he must be thirsty.

"No. He still wants Jojon and Syifa to be memorized" replied Abi Hamdan. He grabbed the glass in his wife's hand, then downed it to the end.

"That means, Mr. Joe should convert first, huh, Bi? And Syifa is the same she should get married?" Umi Maryam looked at her husband for an answer. But the man gave her no answer, so she stood up and walked into the bathroom. Want to take ablution water, in order to be able to perform Istikharah prayer.

"Why do you have to doubt? You should be happy, because Jonathan is the son-in-law God sent for you!" shouted someone who made Abi Hamdan turn his head.

His forehead immediately frowned, noticing the wrinkled face of the man who was already the grandfather.

"Whose grandfather?" abi Hamdan asked in surprise.

"You don't need to know who I am. But clearly .. I've given you the answer, to the doubt in your heart." Slowly, the grandfather's hand extended toward Abi Hamdan's right shoulder, then stroked him slowly. "The man you think is good is not necessarily the best. On the contrary, a man you don't think is good can be the best. Remember that," he added then rummaged while rubbing Abi Hamdan's face.

Instantly, the man blinked his eyes while pulling his body to sit down. Abi Hamdan had just woken up from his sleep, and it coincided once with the sound of my Fajr adhan.

"Astaghfirullah, apparently last night after the prayer istikharah I overslept," he murmured when he realized that he was sitting on a prayer mat, still wearing cocoa and sarongs.
