As the days go by, Naina and Alfin grow closer as time goes on. While the manager, keep restraint so as not to vent anger to Naina.
The girl always dodged whenever she approached or even emerged from the room. Pretending not to see, sometimes even divert the conversation or not reply at all.
Naina's indifference, it's frustrating. Unable to think while working, all the work is neglected because it keeps thinking about Naina.
"Argh! Shit!" He kicked the table strong enough, making the warehouse employees flinch because of it.
"Why the Boss? How, lately it seems like you've been grumpy, huh?" knock one of the workers while moving the pile of dus and arrange it.
"don't know. Maybe because it was checked with the cashier's guard that time. So, like that," said the other with busy hands.
"Cashier guard? Wh who? Naina, Vita? Or ...." He was stunned considering the last few times the boss always looked at Naina.
"Naina, who else? 'Kan, only he is often invited to chat with the Boss," his partner sambar sambar while sighing.
While the person they were talking about, was thinking hard inside the room. Walking back and forth occasionally will bite his lips and grab his hair.
"I can't believe it. Cannot. I have to talk to Naina or .. I make the same calculation as that jerk," the man muttered to find an idea that published his smile.
"Well, I'll make a calculation with him. It's good that he wants to take Naina away from me. She thinks she deserves to be Naina's best friend? Hah, don't dream" he said with a cynical smile imagining the face of the young man who smiled with Naina yesterday.
He clenched his hands tightly, his eyes reddened and his face blackened. Emotions peaked, impatient to see the young man immediately.
The man walked out of the room abruptly, startling the two workers who had just been gossiping about him. They immediately bowed their mouths, smiling clumsily at the boss while looking down. Then, hit each other, blame each other for not sharing their boss's whereabouts.
Naina was indifferent as the manager emerged from the door, continuing to smile at the customer who brought her groceries to the counter. As always he will ask politely as well as offer promotional packages available on his desk.
The man wanted to say hello, but was stopped because Naina didn't even look at him. With longing mixed with annoyance, he went out to meet Alfin.
Coincidentally, the young man was in the courtyard of the mosque raking with the children. Supervised by ustadz who sat while reading the book.
"That's her. I had to reprimand her not to get close to Naina." He murmured, with steady steps rushing across the road to the house of God.
"Sorry, can we talk?" he said as soon as he arrived without greetings and pleasantries.
Hearing the thorny sound, Mr. ustadz took his eyes off the book. Slightly lowered the glasses to be able to see who was reprimanding Alfin. As well as all the children, they looked at the man who looked unhappy towards their foster father.
Alif straightened up, smiling kindly at him. Does he remember who that man is? He was the one who made Naina cry the other day.
"Wa'alaikumussalaam's chat. Wait, yes," Alfin said, making the manager's face flushed with embarrassment.
The emotion he had been holding back from earlier became more and more explosive, he held it by playing a fist. It's itchy to want to smash that holy-ass face.
"Sir Ustadz, kids. Sorry, yes. Pamit for a moment," her saying then turned around after being taken by everyone.
"Let's not talk in front of the kids." Alfin takes Naina's manager to a hut that is still in the mosque.
Sitting cross-legged while maintaining peace of mind as well as himself.
"Please, what do you want to say? I was horrified," said Alfin politely.
The manager gulped, embarrassed to face a civilized young man like Alfin. However, when remembering the purpose came he brushed off the feeling.
"Look. I'm just here to give you a warning. Never take Naina. You know who I am? I'm the manager there and Naina's my employee. In addition, she will also be the future mother of my son. Knows you!" he nodded slightly at Alfin.
However, the calmness of the young man deserves a thumbs up. He smiled, not offended at all. His head understood what he was saying.
"I understand. Very understanding, but what you say is true? I mean did Naina agree with what you did?" alfin said in a voice as soft as cotton.
The man before him growled unhappily, staring at the young man who dared to oppose him.
"You want him to agree or not, I definitely don't like you hanging out with him. Stay away from Naina, or you bear the consequences yourself," he threatened to point at Alfin's face with cruelty.
The young man kept smiling, undaunted by the threat posed by him. Until he got out of the hut, once again threatening Alfin through the glare of sharp eyes. He sat quietly.
"Astaghfirullah al-'adhiim .. O Allah, forgive the sins of the servant. Keep slaves away from people like them, O Allah." Alfin rubbed his chest, sighing to release the restlessness that had been present.
The man continued to pass the children, as well as the ustadz without greeting like most people. Arrogant and haughty, felt himself the most honorable for having a position.
Alfin caught up, his attitude was just ordinary unlike the man before. He went to the children, cleaned the yard with them.
"That is the enormity of love. Make his devotees lose their minds and do all kinds of things. Astaghfirullah al-'adhiim," muttered pak ustadz warning Alfin not to be washed away by the name of love.
"Humans sometimes forget that love is actually sacred. Their own actions that make love tarnished. A lot of people are asking Allah for forgiveness" he said before standing up from his seat and entering the mosque.
Alfin was stunned while holding a broom in hand, digesting the words of the sacrificial man who became his spiritual guide. He sighed, hesighfar in heart. Continue the work of cleaning the house of God.
"Bad!" the manager arrived at his room.
He punched the wall venting emotions that continued to churn in the chest. Anger gnaws at his sanity, jealousy overwhelms the heart takes away his common sense.
"Damn! Watch out you jerk! Look what I'm going to do to make you tick," he said with two sharp squealing eyes.
A sinister plan flashed through his brain, a plan that would endanger Alfin.
