Safa was pensive, staring at the dark blue sky decorated with light dots. Instantly all was so bright. Beautiful flickering stars decorate.
In front of him is now a diamond ring given by a mother who came with her son this afternoon. For Safa, it is not foreign. He met, in a strange situation. Later he found out, the man was a Selebgram. Safa is not so familiar. He does not like to linger looking at the gadget screen to dive into social media.
Unlike his sister who even pecked long at the door. The expression of disbelief was shown when he saw Afin Anka, a figure that was adored by many girls in front of him.
Allah.., Allah. Who is he without the help of the all-knowing God of the mysteries of this world. He did not answer the proposal directly. For him to accept a man's proposal is not easy.he needs to linger, to ask the Creator. Fortunately, he gave Safa time to answer.
Safa is indeed very admiring the figure of a woman who has a high but humble position like Ibu Ayattul. However, the man who came with him was also not the man of Soleh as he had longed for.
The young man even looked forced when he came to his house earlier. The question in his chest; which thing he chose more. Between love or being loved. Or not both.
He felt the pain of loving first. Then, if for the present. What if not both. Not loved, not loved.
It feels so complicated. Not to mention remembering Qonni's words about Afin who was recently arrested for having Sab*. Safa understood, so this is what Ibu Ayattul meant.
Never mind, no need to think too much. Everyone has the right to refuse a proposal, right? I just need God's guidance. And decided.
...
The morning came...
The whole family was busy eating breakfast. Qonni was still in a frenzy. He could not wait for his sister's answer.
"Duh, what dreams can Mbak Safa be applied to the classmate Artist Afin Anka. What not, because most night prayers so the world's crucifixion collapsed. Ckckckck, I just found out, it turns out Arifin's real name... Ariff! Hehehe..."
"By what, anyway, you? In the first meal the rice, do not talk much," said Aida who began to resent hearing the babble of the youngest child.
"By the way you came here, ma'am," the girl replied before turning to Safa. "Thank you, Ma'am. Very handsome guy, adoration of all women, again!" qonni said enthusiastically. He is also a fan of Afin Anka.
"His face looks but minus what's he doing, Nduk? The time does not get the children of ustadz can even be rich? I don't agree."
"Well, but she's still from a good family, ma'am. See Mother. Not at all looking at the fierce in-laws. And likes to bully. One more, a Kemdikbud official. Obviously seedlings, bebet, weights."
"Huuus.., Chen. Eat first!" Dad started to make his voice. They also went back to silence. Safa herself was not listening. The girl just looked down while eating her food until it was over.

Somewhere else...
Not even the big storm that hit him subsided. Another problem arises, suddenly Brody deletes all the photos of himself with Camelia. That made fans wonder about their relationship. The breaking news spread, even one article wrote. That Afin has cheated on Camelia.
"Based on the rubbish news!" the man leaned in annoyance on his stool for a moment remembering the figure of the girl who looked quiet. He never thought, could meet again with the beautiful girl with clear eyes.
"Safa?" there was no doubt as the pair of resolute eyes landed a few minutes on Safa's face.
I am just an ordinary girl, who expects my partner to be a man who can guide me. (Safa)
A line of sentences thrown without hesitation, to inevitably cause a small wave ripple in the heart of Arifin.
"He just wants good men, right? that I might not be among the men he expected." Silent man does not understand. The aura that Safa emanated was indeed really strong. He could not even forget the look of the face that was filled with calmness
Arif looked at the table. The ringing of a cell phone rang, a phone call from Brody. His discomfort makes Arif choose to ignore Brody's call. And start getting ready to go somewhere.
....
This is the school where Safa taught.the man stopped his car in front. Staring at the tightly closed silver color gate.
it's school time, right? why deserted.
Not long. The school bell rings. Arifin was still waiting in his place without doing anything. Until the students come out, after the teachers. Safa is still not seen out.
"Didn't he teach today?" he murmured while continuing to observe.
Not long after, a woman with a large veil came out while riding a motorcycle. Greet the kindly children of his students who were sitting at the school stop. After looking to the left and to the right motor Safa again drove across and turned to follow the path.
There, Arif also started his car engine. After that followed the girl from behind.
Of course, Safa felt that someone was following her, because the car behind her continued to be behind her even though she had started to pull over.
What's that car doing? could he be evil?
Safa's fear grew as she turned. The car also turned a turn as well. afterwards block the road until inevitably, Safa also stopped the speed of the motor.
a man in a white hat and a black mask got out of the car. Safa was familiar with her posture, and was stunned when the man opened his mask.
"Sorry to scare you. But, I want us to talk" he said in front of the car door that was still open.
