30 Days of Pick Up a Mate
Love one night

Okky cupped Kina's cheeks with both hands. Kina was sobbing more and more, she was really scared. Okky never did anything rude to him as long as he accompanied the man as secretary.

Okky wiped Kina's tears with her thumb, "Don't cry, I love you, I can't possibly hurt you. May I ask for something, for the last time" he said. Then forced a smile on his face that looked sad.

Kina looked at Okky's face, "Last? don't be like that, what does that mean for the last one?" she asked frantically, afraid that Okky would end her life in distress.

Okky did not answer, he hugged Kina's body again. Kina gripped Okky's waist with both hands. Wishing that man wouldn't do what Kina thought.

……

Kina and Okky walk hand in hand at the largest mall in the city. Wear clothes with matching colors, but not a couple. For the sake of comfort, the two also wore masks, so that no one would recognize.

It turns out Okky's last request, taking Kina on the road together at the Mall, is like a couple. Eat, watch, walk, maybe shop. Inevitably, Kina complies with Okky's wishes, provided that there is no physical contact other than hand-to-hand. No kisses, hugs, or anything else.

"Romantic comedy yes ki, this player is also famous all"

"Don't ah sir, Baper, just action. Uphold"

"Yes Allah ki, my life has been very tense, even invited to watch a tense tense. This one is it, huh?"

"No way, there will be a hot scene again, it's a hollywood movie sir!"

"Later if it's hot let me fan it"

"Ishhh..where can you, ngaco!"

The two argue in front of the cinema, are determining what film they will watch.And. Okky is not interested in the movie being played. He was busy staring at Kina's face who was laughing with laughter due to the many funny scenes. Kina turned her head as her hands arrived to be grasped.

Platkk…! Kina hit Okky's hand, "Don't hold it, watch out for all sorts!" said, warning.

Okky laughed, "It can be fierce as well as it turns out, funny, I like". He blinked his eyes flirtatiously, making Kina cluck.

After the film was finished they did the Maghrib prayer service at the mosque Mall. Then, to the ice cream shop. There, Kina chatted about the funny thing in the movie they saw earlier. Okky responded with pleasure. They really look like a real couple.

Enjoying ice cream while chatting, did not expect the time to pass quickly. Adhan isya' has been reverberating, both decided to get out of the Mall and look for the nearest mosque, in order to pray together.

After praying, both are equally pensive in their respective places. Sitting in the same mosque, looking up at the sky of the same mosque, worshipping the same God, but the expectations of both are different.

Okky still hopes, Kina is her destiny. The soul mate inscribed on Lauhul mahfudz for him. Even if she had to take Kina off, for the sake of her mother's happiness. He hoped that God would allow it, keeping the love for Kina in his heart, forever. Even though it would torture his own inner self.

Unlike Kina, she hopes, If Okky is not her match. Okky will give up love for her and learn to love her future companion, whoever it is. He also hoped that God would give Okky the fortitude to face all the trials of his life. The strong man who is fragile can get through all the pain today, until the pain is replaced with happiness, although not happy with him.

They exited the mosque almost simultaneously, Kina stared at Okky's face which looked sad with reddened eyes. "Sir, is it done? It's late, go home yuk" he asked.

Kina clucked, "For the sake of Father, I violated my own principles. If this is how I have an ex, even though the courtship is only a day" he chanted, pura pissed. It was Okky's turn to laugh at him.

……

Kina looked at the famous Muslim fashion store in front of her eyes. Then he looked at the smiling Okky towards him.

"Kok here, there are indeed, people dating in Muslim fashion stores?"

"Oh, you still want to walk together with me, want a romantic romantic like that?"

"Eeehhhh..not so sir, I'm just confused, why did you invite me here?"

"I'm keldeh ki same you, from earlier I still I continue, still call sir continue. And the deal is, we use casual language, call me MAS!!"

"It's hard sir, sorry…"

"That's it, come on.." Okky pulled Kina's wrist into the Muslim fashion store. They were greeted by the shop staff. This shop belonged to Ammar's mother, so they knew Okky well enough.

……

Sitting face to face in the car, Okky seemed unwilling to end his courtship. Her boyfriend pura, but her heartbreak is real. Okky looked at Kina who looked prettier while wearing a hijab, reminding her of the first time she saw Kina wearing a hijab, as they met Almeera in the ponpes Al iman. He really wanted to justify Kina back then.

"You're beautiful, I'm getting heavier and harder to take you off" Okky said. His eyes looked at Kina lovingly.

Kina smiled stiffly, she was groggy. "Thank you.mas." she hesitated. Okky smiled broadly hearing Kina call him a mas, although it looked a little forced.

"You want to go hijab, when? I'd be very happy if you realized your wish immediately"

"God willing, immediately. At the end of this, I also often dream, the mother comes with a glowing face and wears me hijab. I have had that dream twice, even the last time, my mother praised me as beautiful. Her voice sounded real in my ear, but I knew it was just a dream, I was calm there" she said. His eyes glare, considering the beautiful face of his mother who is still attached to his mind.

Okky stroked the pasmina-covered head. "Your mother is right, you are beautiful, beautiful face and beautiful heart. Your mother would be proud to see you right now. Now let me be proud to have you even if it's just one day"

Okky's tears trickled down the corner of her eyes, she quickly rubbed them. Kina went glass, felt the sadness of her boyfriend one day. Kina pressed her palm against Okky's cheek, rubbing it gently.

"Trust me, there will be happiness for us later, if we will be patient. Thank you for this great love, I give this love back and give it to someone who deserves it"

"Then let me keep this love in my heart, forever" Okky pulled Kina's hand still on her cheek, kissed it, then placed the palm on her chest. Until Kina could feel Okky's heartbeat beating fast.

Rest assured, there is something waiting for you after so much patience (which you live), which will make you stunned until you forget how painful the pain. – Ali bin Abi Talib"
