Father lowered his head, then he picked up the loudspeaker that was deliberately prepared in front, the invited guests immediately straightened their backs and their heads looked at the several people sitting opposite on the lap. Some were staring with unwilling, curious gazes and most put on serious faces. Because this is a very sacred event for two people who will soon start the longest service.
"Oh God.." Samar, Dad's heavy voice echoed in an unstable tremor. Dad was so nervous.
"Astagfirulah.." Father closed his eyes while adjusting his breath as calmly as possible.
"O Allah, I leave them to You.." Both of Dad's old eyes started to turn red and wet. Dad looks very tough in front of the man who will take over his responsibility to protect Aish.
In fact, he's very fragile.
Then Dad's right hand was raised, grabbed and shook his hand firmly. Far from his heart he hoped that the habib could guard and guide Aish to the path that Allah was ridhoi, not wasting or even daring to hurt Aish. He hoped that the habib could make up for the mistake he had made to his first daughter.
"Bismilbornrahmanirrahim," Dad was ready.
Father's stern eyes that were still wet stared straight and straight right in the black eyes of the habib.
"I married and I betrothed my biological daughter Aisha Rumaisha, with you Muhammad Thalib Al-khalid bin Muhammad Thalib Al-Walid with mascawin prayer tools and gold weighing 99 grams paid in cash." Father jab while stomping Habib Khalid's hand with a loud voice and one breath. Father's voice echoed strongly inside the building so as not to miss the hearing of many people.
Habib Khalid, who was yelled at by Father, immediately held his hand firmly and solemnly voiced a sacred promise as his bond with Aish for life, even this holy promise habib Khalid implored Allah to be sincere in the Hereafter.
"I accept the marriage and marriage of Aisha Rumaisha bin Muhammad Dimas Pratama with a dowry of prayer tools and gold weighing 99 grams paid in cash." Kabul the habib in one breath without the slightest nervousness.
At first Habib Khalid felt very nervous while sitting in front of Dad because he was the father of the woman he loved. But after holding Father's old hand, somehow all the nervousness and anxiety in his heart immediately disappeared somewhere replaced with confidence. He came here once again to justify Aish to be his then it should be that he was brave and confident in front of Father as well as Grandpa.
"Huh?" The screams of the KUA officers who had worked hard to direct the wedding drew the attention of many guests inside the building.
"AH!" Shouted they were all cheering.
Their loud cries soon awakened the habib Khalid from his long daydream.
"Is it legal?" Habib Khalid did not believe it.
Uncle shook his head at the side. Then he rebuked her, "Khalid, don't daydream. Let's pray."
Habib Khalid immediately raised both hands while bowing his head, guaranteeing every prayer offered by the KUA officer at the side.
Uncle noticed his nephew's reaction, chuckling funnyly. His nephew rarely had this much reaction. Just look at his reaction, sometimes smiling silly, sometimes also put on a dazed face as if he did not believe what had happened today. Seeing how funny his nephew's reaction was now, the uncle suddenly recalled with a firmness of the boy's eyes 16 years ago
Muhammad Talib Al Khalid. Is a nephew born to his brother and sister-in-law.18 years ago habib Khalid stayed up all night with a variety of books on his bedroom table. At that time everyone was confused why habib Khalid stayed up all night, even though he had not reached 10 years old. After being asked questions by many people, then they know that Habib Khalid prepared a name for the daughter of his parents' best friend.
They were surprised because habib Khalid was so serious back then just for a name. Then 16 years ago, exactly 1 year after the departure of his parents, Habib Khalid made a confession to him. He said he had promised to marry a beautiful girl. Everyone doesn't believe. These are just the boys who don't understand the performance of the world. Naturally they ignored the recognition of Habib Khalid at that time. Until finally when the habib began to grow up, he decided to take over his parents' business under the guidance of the family. What not everyone thought was that Habib Khalid managed to build another business with his own power. Precisely 5 years ago, habib Khalid managed to build his own company in Qatar. He managed to get the recognition of many people for his hard work. No, this part is still not surprising. Because a few months later after the company had a name, Habib Khalid took him to a private hospital in the city center. This was very confusing, along the way he asked who was sick but the habib only replied in a faint voice. Then when she finds out that the sick one is an unknown beautiful girl, uncle and the others were again confused until finally the habib said that this girl was the future wife he said a few years ago. There was no surprise because that day the habib married the unconscious girl in the presence of several witnesses from the family and the girl's family.
That's so crazy. They think that habib Khalid is too impulsive because there are so many women who have not been met by the habib. In a sense, it is possible that the habib will turn away when he finds a better woman than the unconscious woman.
5 Years have passed since that day. Now the uncle understood that his nephew had been serious and was able to think wisely since he was a child. And to be honest, he was moved by the perseverance of Habib Khalid who was able to keep his feelings even though limited by distance to this day.
"Son, you have made our uncle and family proud. You are a great man." Said the uncle while patting his nephew's shoulder.
Habib Khalid had no idea how deep his uncle thought to him just now - ah, actually he did not pay much attention because his focus now was to wait for his lover to come!
"The bride has finally come down..."
"See.."
The boisterous voices of the guests immediately attracted the attention of Habib Khalid. He raised his eyelids staring at the figure of a beautiful woman slowly descending the steps one by one.
The steps are careful but sure. Her beautiful, down-looking face embarrassedly hid the red hue on her cheeks that drew her awe-inspiring voices from most of the male guests below. A long and beautiful white wedding dress covers her body parts tightly from many views, adding to her increasingly stunning appearance under the awe of the guests.
"Yes, very pretty..."
The voices of admiration were so lively inside the room. If the one who speaks is a woman, the habib will have no reaction. But the dominant one speaking now was the male guests. Habib is jealous. It was very desirable that he brought Aish into hiding so that these people would not see the beauty of his wife.
"Hum, next time my wife has to use the veil to get out." The habib muttered with jealousy!
"Don't most prattling. Samperin your wife, gih." Urge uncle could not bear to see the gloomy face of his nephew.
Already getting the green light, habib Khalid did not delay. With a thumping heart accompanying each step, the habib slowly walked towards the final staircase. His handsome face never turned away from the extremely stunning appearance of the wife. His wife was indeed beautiful, but not the soft or fragile type of beauty. The habib felt that his wife was a beauty that came out of the painting, beautiful and at the same time very charming. Once he saw the habib made pangling and could not take his eyes off.
"Assalamualaikum, my wife." Call the habib and extend his right hand.
Aish blushed in embarrassment. His reddened face bowed in shame, occasionally stealing glances towards the habib.
"Come on, don't let your husband wait." Whisper Dira beside him.
The one who accompanied him down was none other than his two dear friends.
Aish nodded in embarrassment,"Um." Respond nervously.
Stretching out her right hand to welcome her husband's big, warm hand, Aish then answered her husband's greeting in a soft voice full of respect.
From today she puts her husband above all else. Therefore, the husband's ridho is the God's ridho.
"Waalaikumussalam, my husband." Reply Aish shy.
After reaching her husband's hand, she lowered her head and kissed the back of her hand.
Habib Khalid smiled broadly. When Aish finished kissing his hand, the habib grabbed Aish's head while lowering his head.
Cup
A warm, chewy object touched Aish's forehead. His body instantly rippled warmly, feeling a sweet spot deep within the heart. Shaken, he closed both his eyes. Imbibing the warm feeling that made the heart churn sweetly felt the warm waves coming in droves raining down on his soul.
After peeping his wife's forehead, the habib then took his wife up to the guarantee to complete the next procedure.
Soon the building was again crowded with voices of temptation from the guests. Aish to the point of not daring to raise her head under the gaze of many pairs of eyes.
"Don't be nervous. I'm by your side."
Aish smiled amusedly. Her husband asked her not to be nervous, but she herself was actually very nervous as well. Why is her husband so cute?
"Pulse. I'm with Brother Khalid."
After boarding the wedding they both exchanged rings with each other, signed the marriage book and then made a photo documentation. Everything was very fast. Unknowingly they have been on the brink of marriage.
"Khalid, look ahead. Don't stare at your wife, she won't run, you know." Ledek uncle who immediately greeted the laughter of many people.
Habib Khalid smiled in embarrassment. His fault could not control both his own eyes to look at his wife's beauty.
"Yes, Son. The night is long. Hold it for a minute." And again greeted by laughter.
Habib Khalid did not retaliate. Other than being embarrassed, he also did not know what to say to the jokes of these old men. How humiliating.
