The Love of Habib
Chapters 9.5
At that time Gisel was the only friend he had, the only person closest to him. He did not expect that his best friend would stab him just for a man. He was very disappointed but also sad because after Gisel left, he thought that he would not have any more friends.
"No Aish.I'm a bad person, I could betray you and snatch your loved ones-"
"No, Gis. I never loved Iyon and I accepted because I was tired of being chased by him. To be honest rather than a boyfriend, I considered him my friend and confidant at the time. That's why I was so disappointed in you and him at the time, because two people I trusted turned out to be secretly leaving me.." Denied Aish never liked Iyon.
Gisel looked shocked. His mouth was open in shock.
Aish gave a small smile, his eyes looking back at the vastness of the sky that was slowly starting to cloud over. The cool breeze now carried a sense of moisture when it touched his face.
"Gisel, I've forgiven you ever since we started talking again in this cabin. I don't think there's any harm in being friends anymore. Frankly, I am also grateful to be able to escape Iyon since that incident and I am even more grateful that you are also here, far from Iyon. Because of Gisel, you should know that Iyon is not a good man. He won't take responsibility for you after the incident. That's proof that he doesn't deserve you to fight. Gisel let's forget the past.we here are me, you, and Dira who both struggle with their respective suffering and complaints in the past. I don't want us to part or hate each other and I have also risen from that past. Now I wish you both would accept me as your friend, your brother, and as a place to share my grievances. I hope that we will forever remain together through all the trials in this place together... " Aish looked at them hesitantly and asked, "Don't you ever think like this?"
Aish is not a romantic girl, likes to talk poetic, or express sweet words. No, Aish is not that kind of girl.
Perhaps because he had lacked the affection of a child he grew a character that was gloomy, indifferent, jutek, and cold impressed. Because of the character he developed, it is difficult to communicate and make friends. Because he is not a person who is good at communicating.
And all these words were the deepest expressions of his heart. He wants peace after getting to know the atmosphere of a comfortable and quiet cottage. He wanted a good relationship with friends after seeing the interaction of his roommates were kind and polite.
He thought living here was not a bad thing and instead taught him a lesson that this place was the best school for his sick heart and needed treatment.
"Aish..." Dira suddenly hugged her, hugging Aish as tightly as possible as if afraid of losing her.
Seeing Dira hugging Aish, Gisel also did not want to miss. She hugged Aish. As a result the three of them shared the warmth with a very unsupportive wet face!
They do not need to talk.enough this hug is proof that they are no longer just friends, but also friends and relatives united by tenderness of heart.
"I finally have a sincere friend.I finally have good brothers..." I'm not lonely anymore. The Whisperer in his heart.
Aish and Gisel looked at each other, then laughed as they heard Dira's words.
Dira sulks, "Don't laugh."
Aish couldn't stop laughing. His reddened wet face looked especially dazzling under the reflection of the sunlight that was beginning to dim as the sky started to cloud over.
Dira is so embarrassed. But over time he also laughed, strange, I don't know what they were laughing at. The sound of their laughter was very lively and bright which seemed to be harmonious with the sound of the river flow water constantly moving as much as what a huge stone was blocking.

Dzuhur time finally came in. Aish happened to be idle since dawn so he did not pray.
Still on holiday, Aish says to stay here and won't have lunch with her two best friends.
Aish just smiled and assented it casually.
Now Aish lives here because his two friends have gone to the mosque to pray together.
He was idle and did not want to move too much. His stomach was also a bit cramped which made him very lazy to do anything. But when his eyes catch the clear waters of the river, Aish is suddenly tempted to soak his feet in the water.
Aish took off her footwear and socks. Barefooted, he took his feet slowly down and walked among the river-side rocks. He was very careful at first for fear of slipping.
However, his eyes suddenly fell into a frenzy when he saw a big fish swimming in the river, because too shocked his legs took the wrong step and slipped into the river.
"Aghhh!"
His body dazed forward, Aish had already resigned and thought he would be drenched. But before his body touched the river water, a hand suddenly restrained his arm and waist in order not to lose footing.
Aish freezes. He stared blankly at the river water below him. Almost, he almost fell there and got drenched. If he's not idle anyway it's okay, Aish isn't afraid of falling. But the problem now is that he's an idol. If it falls, everything will be a disaster for him.
"Hufths...." Aish then straightened her back while sighing in relief.
"Are you okay?"
He had just straightened his back and was almost unsteady forward again when he heard that low-pitched voice.
Surprised, Aish turned his head in shock to the side and met the dark eyes of Habib Khalid.
Bugs!
Aish immediately became groggy being this close with habib Khalid. Not to mention his right arm and waist held by Habib Khalid, Aish's body immediately felt cold hot.
He thought this dream could be this close to the habib, seeing his long lashes that quivered lightly when blinking, he said, then down to the top of his nose that seemed to have been carefully sculpted before falling onto his flexible lips - do not look!
Aish was terrified. He dared not look at Habib Khalid's lips because his brain could not think normally. He was afraid to think of something strange!
"Awai? you're not a concussion, are you?" Habib Khalid asked in jest.
Seriate...
