Wisdom of Love: KALA LOVE TREATS WOUNDS
ACCEPT APPLICATIONS

The night had appeared dark, the stars and the moon were present carrying the reflection of light to illuminate the dark night, like a beautiful gift that came after a dark time.

A man was standing leaning against the trunk of a mango tree in the backyard. While not far away, a woman was sitting in the gazebo behind the house next to the mango tree.

The two still looked silent, no one had dared to open their voices yet. Well, they are Ameer and Rabiah, after Yusuf's previous narration about Ameer's coming to propose to him, Rabiah did not immediately answer him, he instead asked for the opportunity to speak with the man four eyes first. Yusuf and Wildan as parents would not accept the request of Rabiah as long as they keep their distance while talking together.

"Are you playing Biah?" Rabiah started the conversation, breaking the silence between them.

"Son't play you." Ameer answered while looking at Rabiah who was currently sitting while shaking his hanging legs.

"Didn't you remember?" asked Rabiah with eyebrows that were almost linked because they were a little annoyed.

"Remember what?" Ameer restrained her smile as she saw the look on Rabiah's face at the moment.

"Didn't you tell Ameerah 6 months ago that you are at home in Singapore, he said you will live in Singapore for a long time, and do not plan to return to Indonesia in the near future."

"Rubber." Ameer confirmed with a short answer but with a firm tone.

"If that's the case, why did you come now and make Biah shocked half to death?"

"A half-dead shock?" Ameer repeated Rabiah's words.

*Flashback*

Exactly six months after Ameer's departure to Singapore, Wildan called Yusuf and his family home to have dinner together, including Rabiah.

While at Wildan's residence, Rabiah spent a lot of time with Ameerah to exchange stories.

"Happy brother Biah came, finally Ameerah had a friend story again," said Ameerah.

"Even so far you haven't had any storymates?" tanya Rabiah knitted his brows.

"Have it, only the coolest thing I asked the story even went to Singapore."

"Sister Ameer?" asked Rabiah and Ameerah nodded while showing her sweet smile.

"Sabar aja, Ameer brother will finish his education soon and return to Indonesia" Rabiah said while rubbing Ameerah's back.

"Sir, yesterday Ameer said that if he is still at home in Singapore, he wants to linger there and does not want to return to Indonesia in the near future."

Deghs

"What's? Ja-so Kak Ameer doesn't want to return to Indonesia anytime soon?"

"Yes, brother."

Since Ameer's departure, Rabiah decided to wait for her secretly, hoping that she could return soon with the same feelings. But when he heard the words of Ameerah, his plan to wait for Ameer seemed to be broken right then and there.

"Why wait for someone who has no clarity? Just expressing intent yet not showing earnestness, for what? It only makes the heart disappointed in the end." How thought.

After that dinner, Rabiah looked a little lethargic for about a few days, but over time Rabiah finally decided not to wait for Ameer, although sometimes longing still often approached him. But sure enough, the soul mate is not going anywhere."

*flashback off*

"Yes, shocked half to death because Biah thought Biah would marry a man Biah does not know today" he replied.

"Have you been waiting for my sister all this time?"

"Who's waiting for my brother? there is no tuh," replied Rabiah ketus.

Hearing Rabiah's reply, Ameer again gave a smile.

"Sister did say that you want to stay in Singapore for a long time and do not want to return anytime soon. That is true, but for my brother, one year is long enough for my sister to leave Indonesia, more precisely leaving you in a state that has not tied you to be a halal sister, let alone one year, let alone one year, one month old brother already feel unsettled, brother worried if the events of yesterday repeated again and brother does not want to be disappointed for the second time because of the delay brother. But in any case, you also have to complete your education before you go home" explained Ameer.

"Why worry so? The betrothal has been arranged by God,"

"It is precisely because of this that you consider your present situation to be an opportunity from God for you, so you do not want to waste that opportunity,"

Rabiah just kept silent not responding to Ameer's explanation this time.

"Sister, can I ask you something?" he said as he turned towards Ameer after a moment of silence.

"Ask what?"

"Why would you want to marry someone else? This is my widow, not that tall girl anymore,"

"What if a widow? No problem at all,"

"But out there a lot of ting ting girls who certainly want a guy like a big brother, ta.-"

"But the Sholehah woman who managed to fill my brother's heart is only you," said Ameer cut Rabiah's words, for a moment their eyes clashed with each other, despite their distance is a bit far, even though they are far away, but their hearts were currently pounding as if they were very close to each other.

Rabiah who regained consciousness immediately turned his face and looked at the stars in the sky.

"Don't you still have doubts about your sister?" Ameer looked at Rabiah from the side.

Rabiah just shook his head slowly, then looked back down.

Rabiah turned to Ameer for a moment and then shook his head again.

Ameer smiled happily just because she saw Rabiah shake her head.

"Then do you want to marry your sister?"

"Sister doesn't have another wife, does he?" instead of answering, Rabiah asked back.

"Yes, obviously not Biah, I assure you, this brother is a single man without a wife, unless you accept the proposal of a sister, it means soon the brother will be a married man."

A thin smile immediately appeared on Rabiah's face, he then lowered his head to avoid being seen by Ameer.

"So, do you want to marry your sister?"

"Yes, sister, Biah would," Rabiah replied while looking at Ameer for a moment and looking down timidly.

"Alhamdulillah." said Ameer, rubbing his face with both palms.

While in the house.

"Wil, how is the story until finally Ameer steady want to propose Rabiah?" joseph asked curiously.

"Ameer's mother was on a video call with Ameer, and Ameer suddenly said gini, 'mom, do you want to know who the woman in Ameer's dream is?' and his mother said, 'Who?', and then Ameer said 'Rabiah'." Wildan repeated his story at the time.

"Dreams?" ask Yasmin.

"Yes, the dream results from his istikharah prayer," replied Anna.

"God, it seems my hope has been fulfilled" said Joseph.

"What is your hope?" ask Wildan.

"My hope is that God will bring forth a righteous man who loves Rabiah, so that through that love the wounds of Rabiah in the past can be healed, and I really hope that man is Ameer,"

"God, but what does Rabiah want?" anna asked a little worried if Rabiah refused.

"God willing, because their love has been held back for a long time" Yasmin replied smilingly.

"Huh? Meanin?" anna asked confusedly.

Yusuf and Yasmin looked at each other, then they turned to Wildan and Anna, and they pressed their shoulders.

Shortly after, Rabiah returned to the living room, after Ameer who walked not far behind him.

"Finally come to you too, how's the decision?" wildan said while looking at Rabiah who had now sat back between his parents.

"Biah is willing uncle," Rabiah replied with a smile and lowered his head.

"Alhamdulillah, finally" said Wildan and Anna with happy smiles, as well as Yasmin and Joseph who seemed so happy that they embraced Rabiah together.

"Happy dear, your love is finally united," said Yasmin still while embracing Rabiah.

"Dear, all that you have experienced to this day has shown how the power of God, He tested you, and He brought you extraordinary wisdom" Joseph continued, hugging Yasmin.

"Thank you abi, ummi has always been there for Biah, Biah support at a time when Biah is down and supports Biah until Biah is at this stage," said Biah with a vibrating voice, her tears began to drench her smooth cheeks.

"Of course, dear, we will always be behind you to support you until at any time" Yasmin replied, taking off her arms and gently wiping off Rabiah's tears.

After a while, the two families spoke again seriously, this time to determine the timing of Rabiah and Ameer's marriage.

"What if the next two months?" wildan's proposal.

"Too long, one more month how?" yusuf.

"If it's too long, how about 3 more weeks?"

"Stage, mending all 2 more weeks?"

"Et, why don't you ask for Ameer and Biah's opinion? Who knows, they already have their own plans" said Yasmin.

"Oh right, Ameer, Biah, when do you want to get married?" ask Wildan.

"It's up to Ameer" Rabiah replied timidly.

"Okay, Ameer, what do you think?" ask Yusuf.

"Hmm, if Ameer is asked, honestly Ameer wants to....." Ameer paused her words to see the response of everyone who was so curious looking forward to Ameer's answer.

"Ameer wants to get married tonight, too,"

"Haaaah?" the reflexes of everyone in the room were startled. Except Rabiah who actually looked down with a red face.
