STEADFASTNESS OF LOVE
The Heart that Chose

"Excuse me sir, Miss Zahra is here!" secretary Fathan said kindly. Fathan nodded in agreement, allowing Zahra to enter. Fathan accidentally invites Zahra to his office. Zahra was going into town to drive her father. Fathan wants to give Zahra an invitation. He'll be Fathan's company icon. Zahra became a role model among young people.

Two years after Davina's departure. A lot has changed with the people he knows. Fathan becomes Rafa's successor who takes on the entire Prawira family business. Rafa has retired from business. He was tired of seeing the numbers in the file. Rafa asks Fathan to take over all the company's affairs. Rafa's decision was not wrong. In the hands of Rafa, Prawira's company is progressing rapidly.

Personal faiq who is indifferent and without ambition. Changed with ambition since Davina's departure. He spends all his time just working. The hospital is the best and largest in the city. Faiq gave up all his time on the job. Just for the sake of forgetting Davina. Faiq did not want to be silent, which he ended up thinking about Davina. Had Faiq known Davina's whereabouts. Maybe Faiq will go see Davina. But the existence of Davina seems to be a secret. The Davina family covered all that up for no reasonable reason.

Instead Annisa remains Fathan's favorite veiled doctor. He became a good wife and mother-to-be. After two years of marriage. Finally Annisa had her baby with Fathan. The content is still very early. Annisa and Fathan are very happy. His nearly two years of waiting ended happily.

"Excuse me sir, may I sit down!" zahra is friendly. He enters Fathan's room after Fathan's secretary invites him. Fathan looked up at Zahra, then nodded his head. Zahra came in and sat right in front of Fathan. The two often meet. Because Zahra became one of the selected generation of village builders. The proposal was approved by Fathan. The village where Zahra lived, received a donation of funds to become an advanced village from the Fathan company. Zahra manages the fund very well. So that Zahra village became a pilot village today.

"Zahra, tonight there will be a meeting of several well-known foundations. You get a special invitation as one of the influential young generation. Sorry for the sudden invitation. At first I had no intention of giving it to you. Because I'm afraid to interrupt your time. I know you're busy taking care of your father. But this morning Faiq said you were coming. So I thought about giving you this invitation. Maybe you can attend it. The company will prepare all your needs!" fathan said kindly, Zahra kept silent. He was at a loss to think of the most appropriate answer to the invitation. Zahra was worried whether or not to attend the event. His anxiety was not without reason, he was afraid that his arrival made Faiq uncomfortable.

"Why are you silent? Something's bothering you! Say, there is no compulsion for you to come. If you have to go back to the village. You don't have to come to the show!" fathan said, Zahra shook his head weakly. Zahra will always be ready for charity. But he did not want to disturb Faiq's calmness. During this time Zahra felt a change in Faiq's attitude. Faiq's attitude that wants to get away from him. Even Faiq refused to take care of his father. A patient who does not know about the problems of the attending physician and his daughter.

"How could I possibly attend the event? Doctor Faiq did not want me. He deliberately refused to take care of my father. I don't understand, what's Dad's fault in this? No doctor should mix personal problems with his work. I know if my race is unrequited and maybe I'm the reason Davina left. But haven't I ever shown my race. I kept my race meeting for Doctor Faiq. I realized my race was impossible to reply. My race is not wrong. Only maybe my heart chose the wrong heart. Why does this taste keep on springing up? Though obviously my race does not deserve him. Muhammad Faiq Alhakim, I never asked for your heart. I never expected your love. I never forced you. I never wanted you to be either. Then why are you staying away from me? Like I don't deserve to be around you. Can't you stay in my sight. If not for my sake, at least for my father's sake who always expected your cold hand. A patient who expects treatment from you. Can't all that happen!" inner Zahra Pilu, while looking down. Fathan observed the change in Zahra's countenance. He could guess the meaning of Zahra's face.

"Zahra, I'm sorry if I interfered too much. But it seems you misinterpreted Faiq's attitude towards you. I don't want to defend Faiq because he's my brother. But it would be nice if you heard my opinion!" fathan said, Zahra nodded slowly. Zahra could not have misinterpreted Faiq's attitude. An attitude that seemed to reject the presence of Zahra beside Faiq. Zahra had already swallowed the bitterness of rejection. For him to know the truth of himself is not considered by Faiq. It won't make it destroyed.

"Please say your opinion. At least I want to know what you think of our relationship. Who is wrong between us? So that doctor Faiq felt worthy to behave like that. Why is he so antipathetic to me? Even taking care of my father, doctor Faiq was not willing. He was always looking for excuses just to avoid us. Maybe at first I thought of it all as a coincidence. For two years, it all repeated. It still deserves to be considered a coincidence or rather the attitude of doctor Faiq is a rejection!" zahra said firmly, Fathan stared fixedly at Zahra. There is a sense of admiration as a friend.

Zahra stood looking at Faiq. Although his heart was hurt by Faiq's attitude. Not to love Faiq. But all he did was for his father. A child who willingly swallowed the bitter rejection of Faiq. Constantly denigrated by Faiq's attitudes. But Zahra still stared firmly at the world. He proved to the world. It's not to destroy, but it's to be happy. If it is not her happy self, then the loved one is happy. Simple but hard to do principle. But with determination, anyone will be able to get through it? For in his stead there is only sincerity and sincerity. Something that comes from faith and only for the perfection of faith.

"Whatever you think is true? Faiq was deliberately away from you. Faiq did reject your race for her. Behind his harsh and harsh attitude. There is one thing you never know. Faiq avoids you not because he doesn't consider you. But he was afraid of you, making him worry. Without Faiq realizing it, your existence made him forget about Davina. It's all true, he has a little taste for you. Either love or just a moment of admiration? But Davina's departure, made him aware. She needs Davina as her life support. Since then he has been trying to avoid you. So that the taste for Davina remains eternal. Faiq did not want the selfish nature in him to hurt another woman's heart. The natural nature of a man who is easily comfortable in other women. Only the wounds you will receive. His attitude towards you just wants to protect you. Quite Davina who left because of her indifference. Faiq didn't expect anyone would cry again for her sake!" said Fathan, Zahra looked down. He sought the meaning implied in Fathan's words.

"You're right, not the wrong doctor Faiq. But my race is late. Davina knew doctor Faiq first!" zahra said softly, Fathan seemed to shake his head. Fathan did not want to see Zahra weak and gave up.

"Zahra never love is wrong. For the heart chooses, in whom does love choose and in which heart does love blossom? Everything becomes his secret. Love is the most beautiful gift, be thankful you can still feel love. It means your heart never dies. Believe me everything will be fine!" fathan said softly, Zahra nodded his head in agreement.

"That's why I feel pain. My heart chose Faiq who never chose me. If the heart were easy to understand. I want to ask this heart. Forgetting the name in it. A name stored in the depths of the heart. Muhammad Faiq Alhakim, a beautiful name that I want to erase forever!" inner Zahra Pilu.
