Short Stories of Islamic Love
Reveal Me Because of God

I set my foot to walk “Bruukkkk”, suddenly I fell because of slipping gravel on the edge of the school field. Without me realizing there was a figure standing in front of me. I woke up slowly while cleaning my two slightly dirty hands. Who is the man standing in front of me? I try to get towards him. However, it seemed to be a tall man, in a sweet black complexion and his face was quite handsome.



“Hati-hati”, he said removing a smile from his two lips.

I was surprised and daydreamed while looking at his face deeply. My lips are stiff to speak, my breath is so heavy, my heart seems to stop for a moment.

“You're okay right?”, he asked resuscitated my daydream.

“t.t.ti.dak kkok”, my reply suddenly lata.

I continue my steps. Remembering the figure of the man, who was he?. I always remember her sweet smile that was so charming. Eemm... Do I like him?.

On a clear morning, I opened my window. The night has changed morning, evening into a bright morning with the arrival of the sun. The chirping of my morning's bird. Immediately approaching my phone opened a facebook account then rushed to take a shower to go to school.

It was seen at 06:15 in the morning in my hand. After breakfast, I immediately went to school. At school, as usual, I entered the school gate to the classroom. But before that I had to pass through the laboratory, the hall room and not forget to take the keys to the classroom in the teacher's room. When I was about to walk into the teacher's room, I accidentally met the figure of the man yesterday. It looks like he just came out of the teacher's room.

“Hey,.” call me stop his steps.

“Assalamualaikum”, he said turned to greet me.

“Waalaikum salam”, reply.

“What's the matter?”, he asked me with a smile.

“Include me Finasya Tara”, I said as I stretched out my arms.

“I am Rifan Tarsharif Muttaqin”, he replied as he put his hands together in his chest.

“Greetings”, I said while pulling my hand out.

“It was finasya, I was in a hurry to go to class”, he said left me.

My heart thumped while thinking about the man earlier, it felt great to be able to meet him. It was a new moment I felt for the first time. Hmm. so want to know who the man is?.

School break

I walked out the classroom door and then I went to the co-op. I did not expect, it turns out there is also Rifan.

“Kak Rifan” call me slow.

Like here, he turned to greet me with greetings, “Assalamu’alaikum”.

“Waalaikum salam” reply me always.

“Emm. Can you ask for her phone number, Kak?”, ask her.

“Boleh”, he replied while taking out a bulletin.

“Note on this paper by Kak”, I suggested to him.

Rifan wrote his phone number on paper.

“But Kak”, I said with a happy heart.

“Sama-sama”, reply is short.

It was precisely Sunday night, the beautiful night I saw the moon and the stars, before long I stood behind the window of my room, I also took a mobile phone and sent 1 message to Kak Rifan containing greetings and “by Finasy”. I looked at my phone and 1 reply from Kak Rifan came in and I read. We are also familiar with communication. Suddenly the voice of Adzan rumbled.

“It was Finasya, I want to pray isya”, he said ending the conversation.

Time was so fast, from day to day, morning to morning, night to night, and finally a month had passed. Now I'm getting closer to Brother Rifan even like brother, not only that since I met him. Now I began to turn into diligent worship and have worn Muslim clothes every day and wherever I go. All of this I do is based on my love for Brother Rifan. He is the one who made me change.

In the morning I sat in my yard. I pondered my heart and wrote something in the diary.

“Ya Allah.. Finasya likes Rifan Brother, Finasya dear Rifan Brother, Finasya does not want to leave Rifan. Finasya realized that Finasya changed because of him and what Finasya did was wrong in Your eyes, maybe Allah did not accept my worship because all this time the intention and purpose was only to be able to know the figure of Kak Rifan and Kak Rifan can like Finasya.

O Allah. Finasya will continue Finasya's intention to become a righteous woman. Now and from this second, Finasya will change because of God. Finasya promises to do Your commandments and stay away from Your prohibitions. And Finasya will not like it anymore, Rifan Finasya will focus on this disease first. Finasya is sure, that Finasya will be strong against diseases that attack the body of finasya, a deadly malignant disease. Finasya sincerely with the coming of this disease because of Allah.”

One week passed, now my sense of suika on Brother Rifan is getting lost. I put my foot up and I fell down. I tried to stand up but I couldn't and I couldn't move my legs. I thought that if I was paralyzed, I was crying and scared. What will happen to me after this? without even knowing it, I fell unconscious.

I opened my eyes slowly, I saw a lot of people around me, maybe now I am in the hospital. Suddenly “Kreekk...” the sound of the door opening brings someone. And that someone is Rifan's sister.

“Assalamu’alaikum”, greetings everyone in this room.

“Waalaikum salam”, replied me and others.

because of the presence of Kak Rifan, everyone in this room came out except for Kak Rifan.

“Finasya, are you sick? Why not tell Brother?”, he asked worriedly.

“No, it's just an ordinary sore”, said I who tried to hide my illness.

“So I don't know you're lying, but earlier I'm sorry. Last time you went to your house and you saw the diary book on your home page, you accidentally opened the last sheet and you read it. Brother knows everything. Brother actually loves you too, but maybe now it's too late, because you don't like it anymore.” His words explained.

“I'm sorry, brother? Brother do not be sad, if something will happen to me, brother must be strong, and if later I go called God, brother must be sincere.” My weak words.

Exactly on Friday’at, a month after the incident. He breathed his last in the hospital. All his family were crying and one of them called Rifan to report the incident. Brother Rifan's heart was struck after hearing the news. He cried and went straight to the hospital. Everyone who knew Finasya shed his tears upon hearing that Finasya had been gone for good.
