Tahajud Love
CHAPTER 12

Two days had passed so quickly that Yulian was now allowed to return home. And as long as Yulian still had to undergo treatment in the hospital, between Ahtar and Arjuna no one discussed about Khadija and asked Yulian to marry Khadijah later if it had been met.

”Alhamdulillah, today Abi has been allowed to go home. Some can not wait for the return of Abi, youh!” ahtar said as he let out a smile.

”Hafizha, surely He already misses Abi. Right, right?” ask Yulian to make sure.

”True, Bi. And there is one more thing that will make Abi happy later.” Yulian clenched her head and tried to think what Ahtar meant.

”About what is it, Ahtar?” ask Yulian curiously.

”Consecret,”

Yulian developed a smile to return Ahtar's smile that had endlessly pulled both ends of her lips. Ahtar and Abdullah picked up Yulian that afternoon, because Arjuna had to accompany the Light in a house that was not feeling well.

Joking and laughter have accompanied the child and father on the way home. And Abdullah only smiled wryly as he saw the laughter between them through the rearview mirror. There was a sense of awe with Ahtar who had a wise attitude, like his parents.

”Ahtar, you are indeed good at lowering your ego and keeping how Yulian feels. And you're lucky Yulian, Ahtar has inherited the loving nature of the two of you.” Once in a while Abdullah looked at Ahtar and Yulian from the rearview mirror.

------

Everyone is welcoming Yulian's return from the hospital, including Arumi and Tristan. They were too affectionate towards Yulian, which is why they asked Yulian to remarry. And they knew, Yulian did need a companion figure in her life after Aisyah left for good. However, it was never realized by Yulian because he was just too loving and not willing to lose Aisyah.

”Welcome back, Yulian.” Yulian looked at one by one the people who loved him with a sense of haru that made his eyes dewy.

”Thank you, you still care about me. I'm lucky to have you,”

”That's great family, Yulian. You bandage us with genuine affection and kindness from your heart..it will not be easily lost in our memories until anytime.” Yulian mangosteen, justifying Tristan's words as his friend.

Regrouping had made Yulian feel happy and the other thing that made her even happier was the Light pregnancy. Because Light has been pregnant again after having a miscarriage.

The happy atmosphere in Yulian's residence had enveloped them. Jokes and laughter endlessly air, making the whole house into an uproar over the happiness that might be rare if, Ahtar had returned to Korea to complete his education. As for Arjuna and Light, they will stay together with Yulian until the Light content feels strong to travel far.

"Emm. This time I want to have a serious talk with you. Maybe I was wrong ... when responding to your advice to remarry.”

”And maybe I was also wrong... not looking for Khadijah's whereabouts all this time. While I know ... She was the one who gave birth to Hafizha.”

”From tomorrow, I will ask Abdullah for help in finding Khadijah's whereabouts. But ... if one day we have been reunited with him, I .. beg you not to force me to marry him immediately.” Everyone stared intently at Yulian, listening carefully and digesting what Yulian was saying.

”Frozen and hardened heart .. will not forever be like that. God will surely break one of your hearts. Prophet Muhammad also remarried after the departure of the mother of Khadijah with the widow, wife of his friend who died and also a minor, namely the mother of Aisyah.” Sela Ahtar cut off Arjuna's words. And that made Yulian speechless with a thousand languages.

Silent...

One sec...

Two seconds...

”Ahtar permit for a moment, there is something that Ahtar must take care of before tomorrow back to Korea. Assalamu'alaikum,” Ahtar said without compromising his courtesy and courtesy towards the elders.

One by one left Yulian leaning on his bed. However, they did not intend to not care about Julian anymore, but rather give time for Yulian to really reflect on the sad things that made his two sons sad.

------

Abdullah entered Yulian's room with a tray of porridge and some medicine that Yulian had to take that night. The presence of Abdullah suddenly made Yulian surprised, so he threw his question to Abdullah.

”Why did you deliver the food, Abdullah? Where Arjuna, Light and ... Ahtar?”

”Arjuna was accompanying his wife to rest in the room, because her young pregnancy made her feel weak. Ahtar, though, worked on the script. Why?”

”No,”

”Nothing, Yulian, hmm? Feeling lost without their presence?”

Yulian fell silent, feeling that what Abdullah said was right. As if he missed the presence of his two favorite sons. And he again thought that foolishness had stopped in him again. Now Yulian just condemned his stupidity.

”Don't I ever tell you, Yulian. Do not deceive God, if you are still confused, then ask God for guidance at the end of the night.” Yulian looked at Abdullah and digested every word that was spoken from Abdullah's lips.

Abdullah left Yulian who was still in his room. After Abdullah left, Yulian momentarily forgot the foolishness that made him feel distant with his two children. And the porridge that Abdullah had brought with him had now eaten something for a bite. There is a bad taste in every chew_clearly that he felt, because his unstable health condition makes his mouth feel bitter when eating anything and other than that, Yulian was still thinking about how to make Arjuna and Ahtar give her time.

--------

”Yes Allah .. I am not very good at giving thanks for what you have given to me. Even now the servant again complained about the worry that enveloped the servant. Only one that I ask of You O Allah .. Give me guidance from You on the problems I have to face.” In like three nights Yulian chanted his do'a, complaining to Allah SWT as Lord Almighty.

After the tahajud sunnah prayer which was done with love for his God, Yulian continued reading the mushaf to dampen his brain which sometimes still thinks of his problems that could have triggered the fire of anger. Yulian read the mushaf until two o'clock in the evening. After that, he continued his sleep which made his eyes unable to open wide.
