Zahra My Choice Wife
A photograph

After the car stopped, Aish, Yunda, and Afwan immediately got off at the crossroads. Zakka chooses to go down the last one, not wanting her plan to fail before getting Aish's home address.

"Aish, heart on the road. See you tomorrow, Yunda and I will come for you again." Say Afwan before splitting the direction of destination.

"Yes, I'll wait for you both tomorrow morning." Answer Aish.

"Later if Yahya calls you, don't forget to tell me." Afwan reminded.

"Yes, you two just calm down. I'm home, yeah." Answer Aish, then go home on foot.

While Zakka who saw the two friends Aish had split up, he quickly got out of the car and followed by the brother from behind him.

With a very careful heart, Zakka followed Ais' footsteps from behind. Sometimes he and his brother hide when Aish looks back.

With a feeling of fear, Aish suddenly remembered with two male figures that haunted his mind. Aish kept looking back, she was afraid that she would be followed quietly.

Not long after, Aish had arrived in front of his house. A small house, but able to give him comfort without complaining.

Zakka and Reynan saw it as if they did not believe in the condition of Aish's house which was far from simple words. Although in the neighborhood of Aish can be fairly simple, but in the view of Reynan and Zakka is very far from the word simple house.

"Now you know Aish's house, right? now we go home. Don't be embarrassing, remember the messages of our parents. Don't forget responsibility, just because of a woman." Said the brother reminding.

"Yes, yeah. Resteh you brother, don't like to see if I'm happy." Zakka replied, then immediately returned to her dormitory with her sister who always watched over her.

"Just calm down, Aish. I will fight for you until the time comes, of course, after I grow up and can work and anyway success is, I will come to you for me to bet you." His grunt while walking.

"Well what the fuck are you, slamming you too far, Zakk. You have to focus on learning, still think of women." His brother, then quickened his pace.

"That's so bad, what's wrong with dreaming. While there's still time and opportunity, when else, try." He answered and pursued the steps of the older brother who was getting wider, making him rush.

On the other hand, Aish was already at his house. Sometimes he remembered the memories with Yahya that he had passed along with his two friends, namely Afwan and Yunda.

Aish standing by the window did not notice, if the father had gone home and saw his daughter on the doorstep.

"Aish, are you home?" exclaiming the father called him, and surprised his daughter who was standing while daydreaming.

"Eh, Papa. So, Papa's home too?" sahut Aish and asked back.

"As you can see, Papa's home. Incidentally, your door is not closed. So I checked it out, afraid that someone might have come in first. Oh yeah, Papa bought some oxtail soup. Come on, let's have lunch together. I want to go to work again." Said the father taking his daughter to lunch together.

Aish locked the door and changed her clothes immediately. After finishing, Aish turned to the phone lying on the table and precisely in a picture frame with his schoolmate. Photographed, there is a figure of Yahya standing near him. The period of Junior High is so full of memories with friends and best friends.

Aish approached the photo, then took it. Then he looked at Yahya's photo with a clingy, immediately he felt longed and wanted to meet. However, his parents always prevented him from being close to Yahya or any other man.

The principle of Aish's father is really very strong and can not be changed in the slightest, not at all.

'Yahya, you must have a new life in the boarding house. Not only that, you definitely have new friends and all-new. It's possible that you'll forget me, and I'm certainly not comparable to you. Uh! why am I thinking of you, obviously everything is pseudo. What used to be will not necessarily be the same as what is to come, everything can change. Moreover, the way one's mind can change his mind, making it difficult for me to survive.' His mind while staring at the photo with his friend. Then, he put it back where it was.

Not wanting the father to wait for him for long, Aish immediately walked out of his room and had lunch with the father.

When she was about to step her sister out of the room, her phone rang and blinked repeatedly. A smile was clearly visible on both corners of his lips, Aish turned back to the phone he had neglected.

When Aish saw who was calling, without a second thought immediately received his call.

"Asalamu'alaikum, Aish. How are you?" greeting across the phone saying a polite greeting to Aish.

"Wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh, my news is good and also healthy. You alone, how are you?" aish replied courteously, and also greeted back.

"My news is good too, healthy too. How was your day at school? a lot of friends for sure." Answer, then ask about it.

"No, I haven't had many friends. Only Yunda and Afwan I know, not for the others. Other than me being a new student, I haven't been able to adapt to all the students. If you yourself must have a lot of friends at school and in the neighborhood of Pondok pesantren, you are easily familiar and also smart and .." he said who arrived just stopped.

"Why did you stop? just continue on, I'm ready to hear it." Sahut Yahya who was curious about Aish's words suddenly stopped.

"Nothing, I just talked to you. Oh right, do you feel comfortable living in Pesantren?" the answer was reasoned, then he chose to ask.

"Hem, a diversion from the question. I don't know, because I'm just starting out. I hope I'm comfortable living in the pesantren, after that it doesn't feel like I came home and brought a myriad of knowledge like your Papa asked me to." Say Yahya who again remembered when he got the message if he wanted to come to Aish must be armed with knowledge. The message that always haunts his mind keeps on remembering every time he is alone or remembering Aish who he always misses.

Yahya cannot deny it, he is just an ordinary man who does not escape from forgetting. Sometimes he himself cannot control his feelings, even if it is forbidden though.

Tok to tok.

"Aish, who are you talking to, son? let's spout out. The soup hunt is cold, not good anymore." The father shouted at him.

"Yes Pa, in a minute." Sahut Aish from inside the room, Yahya who heard it turned to worry. She fears that Aish will be punished by her father.

While Aish himself was shocked made, without saying greetings immediately closed his call.
