The thumping sound of his heart constantly resounded within his head. He didn't know, he really didn't know that Habib Khalid would make him his world. He thought in this connection Khalid's feeling had not gone that far because he felt he was the only one who made Khalid's habit as his world. But fact...
His heart was drowning in sweet feelings. Between smiling or crying, she did not know how to express how happy her heart was right now.
Finally she had a home to go back to and had a place to lean on after a long time stuck in the void.
"Sorry, am I being too fierce?" Habib Khalid was immediately shaken to see Aish suddenly cry.
In front of Aish, Habib Khalid felt weakest and easily panicked. He always felt that what he was doing was not good enough and too rude. But on the other side of his heart firmly said that what was done was right, otherwise, just a little careless Aish would turn away. Honestly, after losing both parents, this is one of the biggest fears in the world. She's so scared of losing Aish, really.
"No... Brother is not fierce. Brother Khalid, know that I am very pleased to hear what Brother Khalid has told me. I'm happy, really happy. I am not a useless human being... Because there is still brother Khalid who wants to make me the world. It turns out that there are still people who make me the last destination of his life, to be a home to rest on the rigors of world life... I really did not expect it because that person was Khalid's brother, the man who had always been the topic of my conversation with God. I think only I have made Brother Khalid my final destination, my world. But qodarullah, our hearts have the same goal. I-"

Aish spontaneously closed his eyes feeling the strong hand of Habib Khalid carrying him into a warm embrace, embracing himself who had long wallowed in pain, yes finally... He found an antidote for all the pain he felt in this world.
The wound he thought would never be treated turned out to have a very remarkable antidote.
"... very happy with brother Khalid." Aish ended his words that had been cut off.
It really feels so sweet.
"Hold your word Aish. If one day you betray what you said today, I will not let you go but I will give you punishment. I'll lock you in the house so no one can see you, and you can't see anyone else. I'm like this, I've been dangerous ever since I knew you. So obey, stay by my side. Understood?" Habib Khalid's heavy voice whispered beside his ear.
Aish took a deep breath. He could feel how serious what Habib Khalid was saying. It sounds scary, but Aish really likes this feeling. In this way he knows that he is very appreciated and loved by the habib, Aish believes, any woman must be jealous to see him loved so deeply.
"Hem.I understand, brother." Reply Aish mean it.
Ma, look at the man I love now hugging me so tightly. Many times he said that he loved me, he loved me so much that he made me his world. He did not allow me to look the other way, to look at other men, let alone to the point of being attracted to him. No, Ma. He'll be very angry with me. When he gets angry, he locks me in a room so I can focus on him. I don't know what to say, Ma? The feeling of being loved so sincerely I never felt in that house. I think my life is monotonous. Trapped in a lonely room while staring at Aira flooded with affection by everyone in the house. Life is tormented like that, I thought I'd live for the rest of my life. But what has God given me? He sent my life a very great love. The love that Mom never felt and the love that Dad never gave to Mama was also me. God sent a man from a noble and high school of knowledge to come to me. His name is Khalid's brother, Ma. Mama must have known him because you guys had met before. I'm so happy, thank you... Through my mother I can connect with her. Mama must be proud of me, right? Because my lover is coveted by many women. Even Aira, the child born to Mama's best friend, the child who had made Mama fall depressed also liked my lover. Luckily my boyfriend doesn't care about her because he only cares about me. Don't worry Ma, what you feel first when you marry your best friend will also be felt by Aira. The fruit of love from their betrayal. Aira would cry bitterly if she knew I was with Brother Khalid, by the time that happened, maybe I would feel very relieved because the debt finally paid off. Mama too, right? His mind was in dialogue with Mama, a beautiful woman who had been in another realm for a long time.
They were not long together because habib Khalid had an urgent affair at Abah's house. Aish also does not want to hold her lover, despite the reluctance, the two of them remain separated at the intersection of the road to the princess dormitory.
"We'll meet again tonight, take care of yourself, assalamualaikum." Habib Khalid rubbed the top of Aish's head before continuing his steps towards Abah's house.
"Waalaikumsalam, brother. I'll wait for our meeting tonight." Bisik Aish answered the greetings from the lover.
His face was very red like boiled shrimp. Along the way to the princess dormitory building, the few people who passed by her would look at Aish with curious expressions. They were astonished to see Aish's face, looking so red as if he had been hit by a heat stroke. But Aish's face was fine, she didn't look pale or in pain. This was what confused them, if Aish was not sick, then why was her face so red?
"Ugh, is there something strange on my face?" Aish patted her still warm cheek.
As he remembered, he did not do any strange things with Habib Khalid. So his face is fine, right?
