STEADFASTNESS OF LOVE
Let Me Marry Him...

"Darling!" rafa said softly, Hana was silent not to recognize Rafa's call. Hana was curled up in the blanket. It was very late, why didn't Hana want to get out of her bed? Last night's incident made Hana regret and shame. Hana felt herself failing to understand her two sons. Hannah felt unworthy to be a mother. She has hurt the hearts of her two sons in the hope that she is forced into Hana's reality. His selfishness left both sons hurt. She was embarrassed to look at the world. She became a mother who was defeated by her naps without caring about the wounds of the son's heart.

Although from the beginning of the match, Fathan and Davina were only hope without demands. Hana would not have insisted, had Fathan refused. But in reality Fathan agreed, so Hana felt her hope would be realized. But Hana forgot, she didn't just have one son. Faiq's other son was entitled to be Diana's son-in-law. Hannah could no longer see her two sons. Both were hurt by Hana's hopes decades ago. Hope was the reason for the departure of one of his sons. A wish of Hana who forgot one of her sons. Hana was very angry at him, for having been unfair to her two sons.

Rafa approached Hana, he sat on the bed right behind Hana. Rafa stared at the wife's back, which was tightly tucked away behind a blanket. Rafa understood his wife's feelings at this moment. He understood Hana's regret. Living years with Hana. Make Rafa start to understand how Hana thinks. Rafa knows how to calm Hana's restless heart. Rafa never wants to see Hana slumped or hurt. Hana's tears are able to destroy the lives of Rafa and his two sons.

"There's no point in blaming yourself. What the hell's going on? It's happened, we can't change it. But everything that happens we can fix, not even busy regretting without doing anything!" rafa said softly, Hana still she did not budge. Rafa flips over Hana's body. Put Hana's head in her lap. Rafa gently stroked Hana's head that was covered in hijab. With warmth Rafa calms Hana's troubled heart. Rafa tries to give understanding to Hana. Whatever Hana's decision is in fact for the happiness and good of her family. Decisions taken without negotiation. Sometimes it leads to misunderstanding. Just like this, Hana had unknowingly hurt her two sons.

"Honey, from the beginning I've known about Faiq's love for Davina. I deliberately kept quiet, I did not prevent an arranged marriage between Fathan and Davina. With hope, Faiq will fight for his taste in Davina. Or Fathan who dares to refuse your request. But I forgot one thing. The three of us love and love you. I forgot that Fathan and Faiq would sacrifice everything for your happiness. Maybe we were born strong and brave. But we will always be weak and afraid when it comes to you. You're someone who made my life and our two sons meaningful. So there's no reason we let you down. If you want to blame yourself, blame your affection for making us helpless. We never want to see you laugh. Your tears are like knives that can cut our hearts. Now there's no point in you shutting yourself up, blaming yourself for this match. Your attitude will only make your two sons hurt. Rise up and fix everything, this match will still happen. But not Fathan and Davina, but Faiq and Davina!" rafa said softly, Hana looked up at Rafa's face. With a sad look Hana tried to understand the direction of Rafa's conversation. He was very sorry to have made such a hasty decision. The decision that ultimately hurt his two sons. He no longer cared about his expectations. If only Hana could turn things around. Hana will reject Davina's request.

"But how's Fathan? Wouldn't Faiq be offended? I betrothed Davina to him, after trying to set her up with Fathan. What would Faiq think of me? He must have thought I was being unfair. I'm more concerned with Fathan than he is!" hana said softly, Rafa shook his head to disagree with Hana's words. Fathan leaned over kissing Hana's forehead. Awakened intimacy at a young age. Rafa's love for Hana is getting bigger and will not be consumed by time. Only Hana is a woman who can bring Rafa to her knees. Until whenever Hana's smile becomes the spirit of Rafa? Rafa and Hana have become parents to two great sons.

"Honey, Fathan and Faiq love you in their own way. Both Fathan and Faiq never want to see you disappointed. Your tears will never shed as long as they are alive. Both are very understanding, your love will never be divided. Faiq is aware of the reason behind your decision to match Fathan and Davina. Not to underestimate Faiq, but you don't want to get Faiq tied up in a marriage. You think Fathan will be ready to bond with Davina, because Fathan is mature and wise. Unlike the Faiq who still wants to continue looking for identity. So it would be very difficult for Faiq to bond with others!" said Rafa explained, Hana nodded slowly. He does not expect, if Rafa understands the reason behind the match between Fathan and Davina. But Hannah forgot one thing. In love, there is no need for maturity. For adults will be there when the heart has been adrift. Problems that exist will teach someone to be mature.

"All right, I'll try to talk to Fathan. Will he be willing to release Davina for Faiq. I don't want to make a wrong decision. I'll talk to Faiq, is he willing to be Davina's priest? After talking to them. I'll make a decision. Now my hope is no longer important. Only the happiness of Fathan and Faiq is what I'm fighting for!" hana said, Rafa nodded with relief. Then lift up Hana's body. Hugged him tightly as if he didn't want to take it off. Rafa loves Hana very much. Hana's tears are able to destroy Rafa and his two sons. There was no reason to be happy for the three great men, except for the smile from Hana Khairunnisa's face.

"Mama, Fathan wants to talk to mama and papa. Can Fathan come in!" said Fathan Lirih, Hana turned her head and nodded. Rafa and Hana were a little surprised when they saw Fathan standing in front of their room. With slow steps Fathan walked into Hana's room. He saw his parents strengthening each other. Not blaming each other, but reminding as an eternal couple. Every human being will not escape from wrong.

"Say Fathan, mama will listen to him. Don't take anything from your mom. Make you understand your thoughts, so you don't become a selfish and cruel parent!" hana said, Fathan nodded doubtfully. He sat in front of Hana and Rafa. Fathan kept his head down, not daring to look at Hana in the face. As if he wanted to say, something was wrong. Fathan seemed to fear Hana's rejection. Refusing the taste for Annisa. A sincere feeling that seems wrong for some people. Love that grows above differences. But a holy love that will not be lost by rejection. As long as the feeling is holy and based on faith and for the perfection of faith.

"Mama, forgive Fathan if this time you have to disappoint me. Be angry with me, but never hate me. If only I had disappointed you. I am not sure I can be the priest of the hereafter of Davina. In my heart, someone filled it. Mama, actually, me and Davina are just friends. Davina has always loved Faiq. Although Faiq was always cold and hurt his heart. Davina has steadfastly given her heart to Faiq. So did I, who had been steadfast in giving my whole heart to others!" said Fathan Lirih, Hana was silent in silence. He was very sorry to have hurt his two sons. His selfishness almost left many hearts broken and wounded. It wasn't just the three hearts that Hana broke. Hana broke four hearts at once with her decision.

"Who is he?" hana said briefly, Fathan looked down. She was very scared when Hana found out. If Fathan loves another woman and not Davina. Fathan hesitates to say who the woman in his heart is. But staying still is not the right solution. Everything has to be said with all the risks involved.

"Annisa Maulida Zahro, the veiled woman who seemed to make my world fall apart. He is gentle and understanding. I want to make him a makmum in my joys and sorrows. Completion of the perfection of my faith. The woman who will be the mother of my children!" fathan said softly, then kissed the back of Hana's hand. Rafa and Hana are silent when they hear the figure that Fathan dreams of. Hana let go of Fathan's hand. He walked away from Fathan and Rafa. Hana hesitates to accept or reject Annisa. Annisa and Fathan are cousins after all. Hannah thought about the words of the people. If it can be honest Hana is happy if Annisa is right to be her daughter-in-law. However, Annisa is a cousin even though she is not bloodless with Fathan. Hana could not make a decision quickly. There are many considerations Hana should think about. Especially the thought of Naufal and Salsa were both Annisa's parents.

"Fathan, why should Annisa? There is no other woman who can fill the emptiness of your heart. Annisa's no one else, she's your cousin. She's a daughter of Aunt Salsa. Then how will mama explain to aunt Salsa? If you want Annisa to be a part of your life. You don't know who Annisa is? His face is not yet visible to you, and on what basis do you love him?" hana said softly, Fathan stood up to Hana. He stood right behind Hana. Rafa sees Fathan's attempt to conquer Hana's heart. Rafa always hoped that his two sons would dare to fight for their happiness. Rafa will not oppose to whom the hearts of his two sons are adrift? As long as the woman they love is able to provide happiness as a companion. Rafa will always support every step of his two sons.

"Fathan loved Annisa because of faith. Fathan wants to be with Annisa because of Islam. Fathan wants to accompany Annisa in simplicity not pseudo-luxury. Fathan doesn't need her pretty face. Because the beauty of Annisa's heart has fascinated me. I was afraid that he would belong to someone else. Mama, let me marry Annisa. Restui our love, so that my steps feel light!" fathan said, he rested in front of Hannah. Fathan knelt down pleading for his mother's pleasure. The keridhoan that will become the Ridho Allah SWT. Fathan was not forced. But Fathan wanted to show his earnestness to Hana. That Annisa is the woman who is able to make her smile happy. Reason for the spirit of Fathan's life. The person that Fathan wants to protect.

"Let Fathan find the ribs, which have long since disappeared. The bone I believe was lost just to create Annisa. Let me marry her!" said Fathan Lirih while looking down in front of Hana. Rafa saw the persistence of the son. But Rafa will not interfere, all decisions are in the hands of Hana.
