The Nick's Life
Halal Relationships

Nick asks Iza to stay with him. The woman remained in her seat, while Nick served visitors who began arriving at her shop. The man was excited to make the order coffee while looking at the pretty face of Iza.

From where she sat, Diah kept looking at her son whose face looked happier. The smile did not disappear from his face. Same with Bryan and Edo. The two men were also pleased with the change that had happened to Nick.

In the midst of watching Nick, Edo is surprised by the ringing of his phone. Seeing Rico's name on the phone screen, Edo stood up and stepped out of the store. For a while, the man talked to Rico. Soon he ended his call and returned to his place.

“Tadi Rico reported, if the donor eye is ready for Iza.”

“Alahmdulillah,” exciting Diah and Bryan together.

“I need to talk to his guardian Iza. Are her parents in Jakarta?”

“You just talk to her brother, Ridho. Now he's in charge of Iza. A minute.”

Diah stood up from his seat and approached Ridho and asked him to come with him. Ridho with Meta moved from his seat and followed Diah. The woman introduces Ridho and Meta to Edo.

“Dho.. Edo is Nick's biological father. And he's already managed to get an eye donor for Iza,”.

“Really? Thank you, thank you sir.”

“Eye removal procedure from the donor has been done and will be directly given to the Rega doctor. He will check if it is suitable for Iza.”

“Aalhamdulillah's. Yes Allah Iza, finally able to see again,” exclamation Meta happy.

“Hopefully the donor is suitable this time.”

“Thank you once again sir.”

Ridho looked at Meta while holding his wife's hand. What happiness he felt now could not be described with words. Nick's meeting with Iza was going well and the news about the donor's eye for his sister was like an answer to his prayers all along. And also the fruit of patience Iza of course.

“Sayang.. please check the rest of our savings how much. I have to look for the shortcomings for the cost of operating Iza,” said Ridho in a soft voice but could be heard by others.

“You don't have to think about the cost, let daddy take care of all,” exclaimed Bryan.

“No.. no.. let me bear the cost,” interrupted Edo.

“Don't..thank you for the offer, but Iza is my sister. He's my responsibility,” Ridho's responsibility.

“Iza is my daughter-in-law. Let me bear the cost. Please Bryan, let me fulfill my duty as a father once. You have paid for his life and his school. And now, please give me a chance,” please Edo.

“Good. Ridho, daddy hope you also do not reject good intentions reached Edo.”

“Good. Thank you in advance. I owe you a lot, sir.”

“There is no such thing as indebtedness in family relationships. Nick my son and Iza my son-in-law. It's my duty to do all this. And if you'd like, please call me papai. Just like you called Bryan, daddy.”

“Thank you once again, papai.”

Edo smiled at his smile. Then the man left because there was still something to be done. As much as Edo, one by one Nick's best friend also said goodbye. Denis must return to Jakarta, because Azka must go to school tomorrow. Abe and Sansan are still looking for a home for where they live. So also Fahrul who wants to invite Maira shopping for the needs of their children. Only Arnav still survives because Bila has not yet moved from the store.

“Do you have no job?” bila Syndir.

“There. Watching yourself.”

“Cih.. I'm not a kindergarten kid that needs to be watched.”

“But you are a cat who can at any time steal fish belonging to neighbors.”

When looking at Arnav fiercely. The man next to her had always been such a bitch from the first moment they met. Angrily he stood up and grabbed his bag on the table. After bidding farewell with Bryan and Diah, the girl immediately left the tavern without turning a single look at Arnav. He also just waved his hand at Nick.

Arnav let out a long sigh after Bila's departure. Even though the girl had said she didn't want to bother Nick, she couldn't believe it. Arnav felt he had to stay alert and keep an eye on her. Then his views turned to Ridho and Meta. His heart was bleeding again seeing the affection of the two. Unable to bear it, the man immediately left the tavern.

“Mom.. dad.. I also have to go home. Looks like Iza can wait until night. Nick does not want to be left Iza,” said Ridho.

“Yes, mommy same daddy should also go home.”

The four men moved out of place and approached Nick who had just finished the order. The man was now in front of Iza again holding her hand.

“Nick.. mommy same daddy go home first yes,” said Diah.

“Iya mom.”

“Zi. brother same Meta want to go home. You want here what comes home?” ask Ridho.

“Bang.. Can the permission be here first? I'll take you home later, ” replied Nick.

“Iya. But don't forget to take you home later.”

“Quiet aja bang.”

Ridho rubbed the top of Iza's head then walked out of the shop along with Meta. Diah and Bryan went home first. Nick exits his work area and approaches Iza. This time he invited Iza to sit near his place of work. He also planned to close the shop early. There were many things that the man wanted to ask her.

🍂🍂🍂

As planned, Nick closed the shop early. Both employees went home after finishing the shop. Iza and Nick are now. The man then took Iza sitting on one of the sofas that were there.

“The table is closed?”

“Iya.”

“It's not still afternoon? Why closed?”

“There are so many things I want to talk to you about, Zi.”

The mood was silent for a moment. Iza was anxiously waiting for what Nick wanted to talk about. The man moved away, who was originally sitting in front of Iza, now next to him.

“Zi.. Can I ask you something? I hope you will answer my question honestly.”

“What's the problem?”

“What exactly is your relationship with me? I know you're a good girl. You close your aura well and I'm sure you also take good care of yourself from a man who is not your mistress. But why did you let me touch you? What is our relationship, Zi?”

There was no response from Iza. The woman still closed her mouth tightly. In addition to fearing Nick's reaction, Iza suddenly felt insecure about telling their true relationship with his current condition. The woman lowered her head. Seeing Iza's silence, Nick again said.

“Zi. please answer my question. Don't be afraid, I'm fine. Answer Zi. Other than the strong feelings I have for you, why can't I hold back if I'm around you? I always wanted to touch you, hug you and even kiss you. I'm afraid that everything I do is unnecessary. Is our relationship halal?”

Iza raised her head. His eyes tried to look at Nick's face that was somewhere next door. Nick holds Iza's cheek and turns his face toward her. Iza's hand raised holding Nick's hand that was still on his cheek.

“What is our relationship halal?” ask Nick again.

Iza's head nodded slowly along with her shedding tears drenching her cheeks. The relief seemed to radiate from Nick's face. The man clasped Iza's body into his arms.

“So..you are my wife?” nick whispered in Iza's ear, and the woman nodded her head again.

“I'm sorry, Zi. I'm sorry I don't remember you. I'm sorry I was late to see you. Sorry dear.”

Nick kissed Iza's head repeatedly. All the words of her husband increasingly make Iza's tears more rushing out. Nick tightened his embrace, as if he did not want to lose his beloved wife again. Although his memory still did not return, he felt a strong bond in the woman in his arms. The tears began to fall.

After a while Nick breaks his embrace and then removes the tears that wet his wife's pretty face. His eyes stared at the empty-looking Netra Iza.

“What from the beginning you can not see?” Iza shook her head.

“What was the moment I was in an accident, you were also with me?”

“Iya,” replied Iza with a choked voice.

“What was our accident that caused you like this?” this time Iza nodded, unable to respond with words. Nick's own heart melos when he saw the movement of the head of the wife.

“A.. I'm not a perfect woman anymore. I'm disabled, I'm sincere that I don't want to be with me anymore.

“Mas..what is your call for me?”

“Iya.”

“I like.”

“Ssssttt. don't say anything more. You're my wife, then, now and forever. I will be the eye for you, the guide for you, the light for you. All you have to do is be by my side. We'll get through this and learn together. Understand?”

Iza nodded her head. Nick kissed Iza's forehead gently. The woman who turned out to be his rightful wife. Iza's hands wrapped around Nick's waist. After a long time, she could finally hug and smell her husband's body again.

“How did we meet? Sorry I can't remember.”

“Mas need not remember it. Enough of me to remember. I'll tell you the times we went through first.”

“And we will create new memories more beautiful certainly.”

Nick outlines his embrace. Iza's face was covered with both hands. His eyes continued to look at the beautiful face in front of him. Then slowly he brought his face closer and kissed Iza's lips with a moment of affection and put their eyebrows together.

“I love you, Zi.”

“I love you, mas.”

Nick again buried his lips, putting their lips together again. Through his gentle pagutan he seemed to want to pour out all the longing felt. His hands pulled Iza's waist, until their bodies docked.

🍂🍂🍂

Nick's car stopped in front of the house with a light blue paint. The man got out of the car and helped Iza to get down. While guiding his wife, Nick enters the yard of Ridho's house. Shortly after they said their greetings, the door of the house opened. From inside came Ridho who welcomed their arrival with pleasure.

“Mas..I went to the room first,” Iza said.

“Iya.”

Aided by Meta, Iza went inside his room. Nick's eyes continued to follow his wife until she disappeared behind the door. Ridho also looked at Nick. After meeting the husband of his sister, he knew how much Nick loved Iza. All emanated from the man's eyes and body language.

“Have you spoken to Iza about your relationship?”

“Iya. Sorry, because it's been a hassle. I should've taken care of Iza. But brother took over all my responsibilities. Sorry and thank you.”

“No need to apologize or thank. I'm her brother, it's my duty to take care of Iza. Seeing you guys back together, it made me happy. Thank you for coming back for him.”

Nick smiled at Ridho's reply. Although he had only met for the first time, Ridho's friendly attitude and so open to him, made him feel comfortable.

“Do you want to stay here?”

“What can?”

“Of course. You are her husband.”

“Thank you, bang. I was gonna take him to stay at mommy's house. But with the situation now, I'm afraid Iza isn't comfortable with having to adjust to a new place. Until I get a decent place to stay for Iza, can I stay here?”

“Please.”

“Thank you, bang.”

“Oh yes, tomorrow can you take Iza to the hospital. Rega's doctor, the doctor who handled Iza, said there was a suitable donor for him. He must undergo an examination and the operation will be carried out as soon as possible.”

“Really bang? Thank God, yes, of course I will take him.”

“And one more.”

“What's bang?”

“Jaga Iza is fine, because doctor Rega likes it.”

“What?!”

Ridho only gave a smile to see Nick's face that looked surprised and jealous. As soon as Meta came out of Iza's room, the man said goodbye to Ridho and went into the room. Meta chose to approach her husband. He was quite confused to see Nick's behavior.

“Nick why?” ask Meta while sitting down.

“Jealous like.”

“Jealous why? Same who?”

“Sama doctor Rega. Last time my brother told him that Rega's doctor likes Iza.”

“Ish brother... they just met, time has been given good news.”.

“Involuntarily, let Nick know if there is a man who wants his wife. So he has to keep Iza well if not to lose her.”

There was no response from Meta, only a smile printed on his lips. But the smile was gone when she remembered Arnav. Meta realized, during the tavern, Arnav often stole a glance at him.

“Abang should also take good care of you. Because it looks like your most beautiful ex is still not fully mengikhlaskanmu.”

Meta was shocked to hear her husband's words. Her reflexes turned her face toward her husband. Ridho stared at Netra Meta inside. Seeing how Arnav kept stealing glances at his wife, no doubt made him jealous too. Moreover, Meta also occasionally looked towards the man.

“Do you still love her?”

“Why did you ask that?”

“Just want to know. If it is still, then you have to work harder to make you fall in love with brother.”

“I love same brother.”

CUPS

Meta landed a kiss on Ridho's cheek, then as quickly as lightning the woman ran and entered the room. For a moment Ridho was still sculpting. The man was quite surprised by the maneuver the wife had done earlier. After his consciousness returned, he immediately followed into the room.

🍂🍂🍂

With a bag of groceries in his hand, Fahrul demands that Maira enter the courtyard of Maira's parents' house. After returning from the tavern, Fahrul took his wife for a walk and shopping for the needs of their future child. Fahrul ended their date with a dinner at a romantic place that had been prepared beforehand.

Today Fahrul is free to take Maira away, because Maira's father is outside the city. Reni, who has forgiven and supported him to return with Maira, allows him to take Maira away. Saying his greetings, Maira opened the door of the house.

Both Meta and Fahrul gasped to see Surya sitting waiting for their return in the living room. His eyes showed dislike. His hands clenched tightly, rhythmically with his hardened jaw.

“Where to?” ask surya with an emphasis-filled tone of voice.

“After a walk buy baby needs,” replied Maira calmly.

“What did I say the other day you thought of the wind? I don't want to see you approaching Mai again. Soon Mai will give birth, you must prepare to part with her. Now you better go home!”

“Change..” protest Maira.

“Install room!”

Fahrul nodded his head at Maira. Again, the man was willing to give up for the sake of his wife's calmness. Reni who had just appeared, could do nothing to see her husband's stubbornness.

“I went home first abah, ummi,” said Fahrul.

“Wait. Bring this back. I can still afford to buy all the needs of my grandson.”

Surya cleaned up all the groceries Fahrul had brought and returned them to the man. Although disappointed, as much as possible Fahrul held back his emotions. He took the groceries from Surya's hands and then came out of the house.

“Change outrageous!” exclaim Reni.

“My grandson doesn't need anything from that jerk's man.”

Not caring for his wife's piercing gaze, Surya immediately passed towards his room. Meanwhile, in the room, Maira could hear what had happened, because the woman accidentally did not close the door of her room. Her tears broke hearing what the father had said. But then her cries turned into a ringing as she felt pain in her stomach.

With great difficulty Maira headed to her bed, then laid herself down. Repeatedly he drew and breathed a long breath to calm himself and to reduce the pain that was afflicted. Doctors have advised her not to think much about things that make her sad because it can affect her weak content. But the deep disappointment he felt to Surya, again made the woman cry.
