Sequel My Ustadz My Husband - Prospective Master
The Part 100
A few months later...
Time goes by quickly, with an uneasy struggle at every step. Mary never complained, never again blamed fate whenever she felt in misfortune. Maria tries to be patient and stoic, the support of her friend makes her strong and keep smiling in the face of everything.
Implied and bright bluntness of his environment he always get almost every day, not infrequently he is said to be hypocritical, shar'i appearance but pregnant without marriage. Diligent to the majlis taklim but belly bunting and do not know who his father. Mary could only weep, but she was not angry with the abuse, she was grateful, very grateful because the abuse reminded Mary of her sin, and it makes Mary always and always try to improve herself, draw closer to her Lord and beg forgiveness for her past. He thanked those who were not asked to encourage Mary to always feel sinful, so he would always repent like his first repentance.
"Even the Prophet's grandson was insulted, and he did not answer the insult, instead he thanked him for being reminded of mistakes he might not have realized"
Mary and Maryam had just returned home from the routine briefing they attended, Maryam took Mary to her room and they were chatting before Maryam came home.
Maria has entered nine months of pregnancy, Maria was nervous whenever she thought about her delivery, she was afraid but Maryam always said she and her Ummi would take care of Maria later.
The pregnancy of Maryam itself has begun to burn. Without feeling the time really goes very fast.
"I thank them too, but sometimes I am ashamed, for they brought my hijab and my shari'i, Maryam. I'm afraid they're judging my religion because of me"
"They will judge or engage, it will not affect our religion. Because Islam is perfect. While the adherents are certainly not, since we are only ordinary humans, we have reason and lust"
"Thank you, you can always calm me down" said Maria, holding Maria's hand.
"How is your relationship with Nabil's sister?" maryam arrived.
"We're just friends, he helped me a lot"
"You're so close that even if you're just in the sosmed, I can't believe you're just friends"
"The truth is, we're just friends. Nabil promised me he would try to make me love him"
Maryam immediately laughed at Mary's words that seemed naive.
"And you know, when Sister Nabil said she wouldn't try to make you love her, that's when she tried to make you love her, Maria"
"Huh?" Maria frowned. He between understanding and not understanding with Maryam's intention "You mean?"
"Mary, men are so" said Maryam who made Mary even more confused "Yes, I went home first. Maybe Amar's home too"
Mary nodded and once again she thanked him.
After Maryam left, Mary's phone rang and Nabil's name was plastered on her screen. Mary immediately thought back to the word Maryam. Maria shook her head, expelling the confusion.
"Assalamualaikum, Doctor" said Maria after answering a call from Nabil.
"Greetings waalaikum, Bumil. How are you doing today?" questions are like school bells, it's over and over again. But Mary was very happy with such simple questions every day.
"We are very kind, thank you" Maria replied.
"Alhamdulillah, Mary. Actually I want to tell you, if I'm going to Indonesia in two weeks"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yes, Afsana's been tested, which means she's about to pass, Inysa Allah. And Faraz wants to have their wedding reception"
Faraz and Afsana, Mary, it is not easy to forget Faraz, even though he was her first love and had done many things for Mary. And they really never communicate again, because Mary really wants to avoid it. But Maria is very happy if Faraz is happy.
"I'm so happy" said Maria Lirih.
"You'll come at their reception, right?"
"I don't think I can"
"Why?"
"They consider you family, they'd be happy if you came"
"I will come if invited" said Maria then with a small laugh.
"Hem okay if so, anyway, what do you want?"
"What?"
"If I go to Indo later, what do you want me to bring?"
"Thank you, thanks"
"Later to bring dates, dates that cook good for pregnant women who will give birth"
"Okey, that's all. Thank you very much Nabil"
"The same, Bumil"

Mecca
Shofia ruffled her waist in the doorway of her son's room as she stared intently at Nabil who had just finished calling Maria. Nabil who saw it just smiled sweetly, he approached his mother and immediately kissed her cheek.
"We are just friends" Nabil said.
During these few months, Nabil very routinely contacted Maria and noticed her. Shofia wasn't as innocent as Maria who agreed that they were just friends.
"Where is a friend who every day news" after his mother, he already knows the feelings of his son and already knows the state of Mary. Of course Shofia is very unwilling her son has more relationship with Maria.
"But the fact until now we were just friends, Ummi. Believe in Nabil"
"Forgive him, Nabil. Find another woman, who's much better than her"
"Ommy... Nabil was looking for a wife, Nabil wanted a career. Already, don't worry about Nabil yes, Nabil promises you won't do anything to upset Ummi"
"Not just Ummi, Nabil. But our whole family, they don't maybe accept a woman who has a child from another man and that's outside of a marriage" Nabil could only sigh heavily. This is the reason she does not fight for Mary now even though Nabil does love her, but Nabil will make her family accept Mary one day without seeing Mary's past.
"Nabil understands, but we can't judge people, Mary has changed, she repents, she lives a much better life. Maria is a good woman, Ummi. Ask Mary, because almost every day they meet, and they are very close"
"Ummi didn't mean to judge him, Nabil. Ummi just wants you to get a better woman than him"
"How does Ummi judge who is better than whom? Sometimes people have lived sinful lives in the past, but if God wants him to change, repent, then he will be a obedient servant of God. And vice versa. Even God loves a repentant person even if he is sinful, then who are we to judge someone just because of his past? "
Shofia only smiled faintly hearing the long speech of her son. Shofia knew what Nabil was saying was true, but as Shofia said, she did not judge Mary, only as a mother, of course she wanted her son to have a beautiful wife, with a good background.
"May God always guide your steps, son. And may God write a beautiful destiny for our family" Shofia said, patting Nabil's cheek.
"Aamiin"
