The Love of Habib
Chapters 24.3
"Why are you still here, Aira? Umi asked you to go to the backyard to take the catfish that had been caught to be cleaned immediately." Nadira's annoying voice disturbs my hearing.
This girl always makes trouble for me. Today he asked me to do a lot of work. It was as if I was the maid in this house.
I turned to her, smiling as sweetly as I could, "I just finished my drinking water. Soon, I'll go take the catfish to the backyard."
He nodded, "Hurry up, Umi is already waiting for you behind."
I pretended to nod in understanding and forcefully carried my foot into the backyard. Ugh, the air here is very irritating. There was a smell of mud and fishy everywhere, very slovenly.
"Ah..but my body is a bit sultry. Is the medicine starting to react?" It's faster than the last time I felt it.
This drug is very powerful and dangerous. I need to get this job done so that my plan is not interrupted. Frightened by too much medicine, his reaction will overwhelm me to the point of not being able to think clearly.
So I hurriedly picked up a bucket of catfish without saying any greetings to Umi and immediately rushed back to the kitchen. Once in the kitchen, my body was already sweating profusely and my throat felt dry. Every time the cloth I was wearing swiped my skin, my body would instantly tremble as if yearning for a touch more.
"Akhs..." My head is getting dizzy.
Without waiting any more time I immediately went to a room. The last time I saw Habib Thalib came out of that room. I think he lives there.
Cclack
The door is unlocked. In the room there was nothing special except a suit that was hung beside the dressing table.
"Habib Talib..hahaha..." I took the suit, took it into my arms and hugged it tightly. The distinctive fragrance of Habib Thalib directly penetrated into the sense of smell, making my head dizzy to create an illusion that Habib Thalib was now hugging me tightly.
"Sugary..."

"Gis, did you notice that there was something wrong with Aira? His face was red and his breathing was intermittent like an exhausted person. Is she okay?"
Dira, Gisel and Umi are at the edge of the catfish pond. Their job is to collect all the catfish that are thrown to the edge of the pond. While Umi went the other way and talked something with a santri.
Gisel silently looked down at the edge of the pool and did not realize that Dira had just spoken to him.
"Gis, Gisel?!" Call Dira while patting Gisel's shoulder.
"Eh...why, Dir?" Answer Gisel.
Dira looked at his friend strangely. Ever since they came to the pond, Gisel's behavior suddenly became strange. He doesn't talk much and loves to daydream. What made his best friend like this?
Is it because of Danis?
But is it?
Gisel never told me anything about Danis and never showed any interest in Danis - wait, maybe ever - but it was a long time ago because Danis had not been seen again for several months. And today, they happened to meet here.
"What's wrong with you, Gis? Have you been daydreaming?" Tanya Dira did not understand.
Gisel shook his head refusing to answer. He does have a burden of mind but cannot explain it now to his friend. The timing is not right.
"I'm just a little soy. What did you say?" He asked as he swept his gaze in a direction.
"Aira was a little weird. His face was crimson and the sound of his breathing was somewhat disjointed like an exhausted person. Is she okay, huh?" I don't want Dira to think about it.
He had a heart, and he was worried that anything would happen to Aira. Either way Aira was a human and an old acquaintance, so she was a bit worried about anything happening to her.
"I was able to notice him. He may be tired of working too much. You know for yourself, didn't Umi and Nadira ask him to do a lot of work this afternoon?"
Gisel answered not thinking too much about it. Ah, his mind is out of focus. Because his head is currently dominated by the name Danis. He wondered when Danis returned to the boarding school, and as long as she did not return to the boarding school, did Danis ever think about herself in the slightest?
But of all the questions Gisel wants to know the answer to is did Danis hear the rumors that circulated recently in the boarding school?
About her betrayal and sleeping with her best friend's boyfriend. Did Danis hear these rumors?
Then what's the response?
Is he angry and jealous, or maybe he doesn't care at all?
He did not react to these rumors other than the disgust that arose in the heart. Maybe, no one knows.
O God, I ask You only, that my heart may be stretched out and my patience broadened. I believe that You have a man who deserves and accepts me for who I am. Gisel's mind was drowning in grief.

"Khalid's face is so red, Brother is okay, right?" I took some dried tissue on the table and gave it to Brother Khalid.
Brother Khalid immediately took the tissue from my hand and hurriedly rubbed it on the face.
Brother Khalid's face was very red and he was sweating profusely looking very uncomfortable. Could this room be too hot for her?
But why do I think this room is not too hot and even quite cool because there are many trees outside, strange.
"Is Brother Khalid okay? Is there anything uncomfortable in Khalid's body?" Ask me to worry about him.
Could he suddenly fall ill?
"Not hot" I murmured as I touched his hand.
Khalid's brother didn't have a fever because he was a little cold. No, there's something wrong with my boyfriend. My lover's body always has a warm temperature that is very comfortable to touch regardless of whether it is the rainy season or summer. Khalid's brother is this kind of person.
"Don't... Don't touch me Aish." Brother Khalid's voice raspy.
He immediately shook my hand and got up from his seat.
I'm ashamed of being suddenly rejected by Brother Khalid. Usually Brother Khalid will not refuse my touch. Is it because there is a Grandpa?
"Habib Thalib, you seem to be sick?" Brother also noticed something was wrong with my lover.
Um, thankfully Grandpa didn't comment on my touch to Khalid's brother just now. Even though we are engaged, but that does not mean we are halal to touch each other.
"My body's a little sultry and a little uncomfortable." Answer Khalid while looking at me.
