Dusk At the End Please
The law!!!

There is no cure for two people who love each other but marriage.

"You really want to marry me?" Akhtar stood between Shanum and Liani. He still confirmed Shanum's answer.The shock teraphy given Shanum was still imprinted, his mind was not rounded, all still seemed to dream for him.

Shanum unraveled his embrace with Liani, he turned to look at Akhtar, smiling with a sweet smile that was always soothing for Akhtar.

"For me, there is no proof of love that makes the most sense other than marriage, the rest is just nonsense and lust" said Shanum steady.

The look of the hopeful eyes also loosened, his eyes glazed, finally one clear drop managed to fall from the corner of his eyes, he turned his face. Dodging Shanum's gaze which was still fixed on him with a smile on his lips.

"Thank you" he said. He raised his head, holding back something that almost fell out of the corner of his eye

The application event containing teraphy shock ended right when I saw the ashar adhan echoing. Akhtar's extended family had gone home first, followed by Fatimah's mother who said goodbye after chatting long enough with Bu Hana.

There were only six men, three men and three women. Sit in a circle at a round table. After the prayer Ashar decided to return to talk. Be cool with various topics while enjoying some snacks presented on the table.

Akhtar and Shanum were sitting side by side, while beside Shanum was Hasna's sister-in-law, precisely her former sister-in-law. In front of Shanum was Liani who was also next to Ahsan, while Ghifar was sitting between Akhtar and Ahsan and directly facing Hasna.

Hasna and Bu Ratna decided to stay overnight, they came to Garut and rested at the hotel that had been prepared by Fauzan.

"So when was the plan halted?" Ahsan opened the conversation, sipping freshly-floored coffee with smoke still billowing.

"Quickly" Akhtar replied quickly. From the beginning he did want to get married immediately, but Ms. Fatimah and the extended family from the mother suggested to do a proposal first as a place to introduce the two families.

"If we leave it to the old men for that" Shanum glanced at Akhtar who was sitting next to him who replied with a nod of his head.

"If I think as soon as possible yes Tea, let me spit it, hehe.." ceplos Hasna who ended with a ruckus. He hid behind Shanum's back, ashamed of what he said. Forgetting that the people in front of him didn't know him.

"Ciee...yang already not strong want to be a spell" Liani who already knows about who Hasna and has been acquainted with him increasingly teasing him. Everyone laughed, while Hasna continued to sneak behind Shanum's back in embarrassment.

Shanum just smiled in response, he let Hasna slip spoiled in his right arm. Hasna was always spoiled for Shanum, Shanum's presence became a figure that was very expected by Hasna. He treated Shanum like his own biological brother and vice versa.

"Yes, this is Hasna. He was the younger brother of the late Bang Haqi" Shanum glanced at Akhtar with the corner of his eyes, wanting to know what his response was like. Naturally, Akhtar was not affected at all.

"Dec, if you want to know about them, just know themselves. This is Kak Liani, Kak Ahsan, Ka Ghifar and Kak Akhtar" Shanum pointed one-on-one, and greeted with a nod of his head and a friendly smile from Hasna.

"Thank you for accepting me, hopefully next we can establish friendship" said Hasna friendly.

"If Mr. Akhtar I already know, we were once business partners even yesterday we had met at the airport" explained Hasna.

"Yes!" shanum Exclamed. Akhtar looked up from his dress, turned towards Shanum wanting to know his lover's facial expression hearing Hasna's words.

Hasna recounted her encounter with Akhtar while at the airport. He did not expect that his brother-in-law would marry the person he had been in business with who was currently being continued by his assistant. Akhtar just smiled flatly in response.

"I also know Mr. Ghifar, who is now continuing his cooperation with our company, Teh" Hasna continued. Shanum frowned, with the last sentence Hasna said, our company. Hasna understood Shanum's reaction.

"The company I hold is a family company, all papi heritage assets have been changed in the name of Brother and I. I hold the company after papi is gone because my brother insists on his desire to play behind the scenes only. He chose to work on a plantation in Bogor. Eh it was because there was this angel there" Hasna again hugged Shanum from the side. Shanum frowned and found out about that fact. While Akhtar and the others just silently listened to Hasna's story.

"And now all the assets on behalf of the deceased brother have been transferred so on behalf of the right according to the mandate of Abang, so my arrival here in addition to attending the application event I also want to convey this. And I hope I can join the papi heritage company with me" Shanum nodded, he did not expect that Haqi had prepared everything that far.

"If Brother Ahsan, I already know well. Brother used to tell stories, he even kept a photo of you two in his memory album"

"really?" ahsan exclaimed, not expecting that Haqi thought their friendship was that close.

"Sister Liani also I already know, but often the story also yes, Tea?" Hasna asked Shanum's approval and answered a nod of the head by Shanum confirming the sign.

"So you've known with us-we for a long time?" tanya Ahsan made sure.

"Heum.." Hasna replied with a nod of her head.

"But I just found out, Haqi has a sister like this?" Ahsan teases Hasna with her funny face,

"Uhuukk" Ghifar who was enjoying his coffee suddenly coughed.

Akhtar who was beside him immediately thrust the water in front of him to Ghifar. "Why lo?" ask Akhtar in wonder.

"Why, Bro?" after Ahsan who was holding Ghifar's nape helped stop his coughing.

"It's okay" Ghifar replied in a panic. He held his slightly sore throat from choking.

Hasna was only grim at seeing Ghifar's reaction, believing that Ghifar was choking on hearing Ahsan praise her for being beautiful. Since his company's cooperation with the company owned by Akhtar's father continued by him, they have indeed met often. Even Ghifar often sent him messages under the pretext of asking about work. Several times Ghifar looks like jealous when he picked Bima his lover after a company meeting but Hasna does not want to be too confident especially if he already has a lover who will soon propose to him.

Their chatter is more exciting, the atmosphere of togetherness, the atmosphere of family is increasingly felt between them until the adzan maghrib did not feel finally reverberate.

The men prepared to go to the mosque with Mr Imran and Fauzan, while Hasna and Liani followed Shanum to his room to clean up and prayed magrib at home.

After the magrib prayer, all prepare to leave. Liani who was originally going to stay at Shanum's house did not so because Bu Fatimah called and asked him to stay at her house. Hasna and Ms Ratna were preparing to return to the hotel in the Cipanas area. Tomorrow morning Shanum promised to bring all employees and family members swimming to the water tour Cipanas Garut. They also agreed to meet there.

Ahsan and Liani had already left Shanum's house in Hasna with her mother, accompanied by Ghifar's gaze, who continued to follow in his footsteps. Ghifar waited for Akhtar in the car. Akhtar and Shanum were both still standing on the porch.

"I came home" said Akhtar but still flinching where he stood.

Shanum nodded "Yes, fii amanillah" he said but Akhtar had not moved, his eyes indicating that he was reluctant to leave the house, not wanting to separate from Shanum. If his plan to directly justify Shanum is not prevented by his mother and his extended family, he may not currently go home and go back to parting with his lover. Two weeks of longing, being patient and refraining from contacting him was very painful.

"Why?" shanum asked who was surprised because Akhtar did not leave even though he was already saying goodbye.

"Why?" Akhtar asked back, making Shanum even more astonished.

"Yes, why are you still here, it is good, pity Mr. Ghifar is waiting" explained Shanum, he pointed with his chin towards Ghifar who had started his car.

"You're upset with me? not kangen that? two weeks ago we did not see each other, we did not give each other news. I still don't know" Akhtar sulked, not accepting Shanum's expulsion.

"Eummhh...don't boong, really don't know how I was doing for two weeks? I can't believe it" Shanum said as he poked his lips,

Ahsan was stunned, he was shocked by Shanum's question which was like mocking him.

"Yes, we don't have any news for that long" elak Akhtar won't lose.

"Yes, but every day you call Fauzan, what else? have you eaten yet? what are the edges again? haven't eaten yet, has he?" shanum's teasing was crushing, making Akhtar instantly scratch the head that did not itch.

"Hhe.." just a smirky face that he displayed, embarrassed to be caught if for two weeks yesterday so stalker Shanum through Fauzan. Shanum shook his head to see Akhtar's behavior.

"Yes, yes sorry. After you start ngangeninnya kebangetan make me difficult to move on, so be forced to stalking news you via Fauzan, I need moodbooster, hehe.." he said ended kekehan that makes Shanum increasingly shake his head.

"Patience, haven't you been able to get through it for years. We have not been used to not looking for each other but longing for each other, not telling each other but praying for each other"

Nyesssss. Shanum boasted a smile seeing Akhtar close his eyes as if permeating the words he said so deeply.

"Ah home, sir Ghifar" Shanum turned around to leave Akhtar who never returned home.

"Eith...where are you going?" Akhtar stepped immediately against Shanum's steps by spreading his hand out.

"Wait a minute, I'm not home yet. Must not be seen dong nganterin until dong" Akhtar.

"Idihih.." Shanum protested with a grueling face, he stopped his steps.

"Okay, I'll go home but on condition" nego Akhtar

"What conditions? why would you go home on parole?" Shanum starts to get annoyed with Akhtar's behavior,

"I'll go home when you answer my greetings with a special call for me, just like me" Akhtar explained, puzzling Shanum.

"Special call?" Shanum did not understand Akhtar's intentions.

"Yes, from now on I call you like this. It's a shame I said yes" whispered Akhtar who slightly moved his face closer to Shanum's ears making Shanum take two steps back from the original place.

"Didn't know what" elak Shanum, he wasn't brave enough to call Akhtar with a call like Akhtar did.

"It's not like I'm going home" Akhtar threatened.

"Eyy.biarin" Shanum took a step in the other direction, dodging Akhtar's stretch of hand.

"Mrs...!" call Akhtar in a spoiled tone.

"Iihh, what the hell" Shanum kept trying to dodge.

"Plis oruh neng, just once" Akhtar forced

"No!" shanum said firmly.

"Plisssss" Akhtar still pleads, though,

"No, his tongue would be a little silly to say that" Shanum said.

"Zinc"

"No"

"Zinc"

"Noooo..."

"Once a time"

"No"

Tiii.........

The sound of a long-running car horn stopped their debate.

"No, Mr. Ghifar has called"

"Bkk" ...Akhtar clucked, annoyed with Ghifar's disorder.

"Okay, this time I gave up. If so I go home yes" said Akhtar with a sad face, Shanum nodded with a restrained smile.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Akhtar lethargic, their distance is now quite far, Akhtar turned his body.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, Yang" Shanum replied softly but was still heard clearly by Akhtar. Suddenly, Akhtar stopped turning his body back to face Shanum but unfortunately the intended person had disappeared behind the door.

Smile again rose on Akhtar's lips, his mood was improving again. Shanum's friendly call re-awakened his spirit.

He walked to the car, opened the door, sat down at the wheel with a smile on his lips. Making Ghifar shudder, noticing the strangeness of his best friend.

The result of a chat two families decided the wedding of Shanum and Akhtar will be held two weeks later, on Saturday in one of the hotel ballrooms in the Cipanas Garut area.

Some preparations are directly handled by Ms. Fatimah such as dowry, delivery and family uniforms. While the other two families have agreed to give all their business to the trusted wedding organizer in Garut who is also still an acquaintance of Bu Fatimah.

Not to forget that Fatimah also reminded Akhtar to tell this good news to his father. Akhtar still has another family, his father's new family. Akhtar said he planned to go to Bandung after completing his project in Garut. Upon completion of the project in Bali Akhtar again received a request from one of the companies in Garut to complete their new office furniture.

Ms. Hana protested because she was confused about what to help, usually if the wedding celebration of the female family was more busy. His experience of marrying his second daughter made Bu Hana feel for herself the rush ahead of the celebration. But this time no, everyone has handled it.

"Teh, what should we do?" ask Fatimah confused. Currently they are looking at the invitation design sent by WO envoy Bu Fatimah.

"As for mom, how do you want it?" Shanum asked back.

"Because everything has been handled, most mothers want to make gifts for family hampers and neighbors, yes?" the proposal of Bu Fatimah, one of the customs before the hajat in Garut is to divide the idangan (rice box) or parcels to family and close neighbors a few days before the wedding day usually.

The long-awaited day arrived, at six in the morning Shanum and the family had already left for the hotel. The ijab qabul event will be held at exactly eight and thirty and followed by a reception starting at eleven.

About a thousand invitations have been spread to all colleagues and friends. Both large families have prepared to the location of the event according to the instructions of the owner.

"Teh, Nak Akhtar said what's the dowry?" Mr. Imran asked on the sidelines of Shanum dirias by MUA who had prepared Bu Fatimah in one of the hotel rooms specially prepared to decorate the bride. Mr. Imran is currently accompanying the princess because his wife is being groomed in another room, as well as Shanum's sister and friends.

Mr. Imran's eyes suddenly condensed, seeing his eldest daughter for the second time adorned with brides but this time the look of his face looked fresh and happy, unlike when previous marriages hidden wounds that he always tried to cover up. But the instinct of a father was not wrong at that time. Now Mr. Imran is calm and happy finally his eldest daughter is reunited with her true love.

"If Aa said he said a set of prayer tools and jewelry only sir, that's saying it" Shanum replied he officially changed his call to Akhtar with the call of Aa openly. Previously he only dared to call Akhtar with the call of Aa if only being alone.

As per the information he got when Akhtar if he had prepared a set of prayer tools and gold jewelry as his mascawin.

'Darling, you want me to prepare what mascawin?' chat with Akhtar a few days ago.

'So much Aa' replied Shanum

'Mother told me to ask her, perhaps it's a pity there's a special request'

'There is no A, the important thing is that mascawin is not burdensome to Aa but also does not demean me' Shanum replied honestly.

'Alright, Aa has prepared a set of prayer tools and gold jewelry yes, hopefully you like' explained Akhtar, Ms. Fatimah has prepared everything well.

'Inshaa Allah A' concluded Shanum.

"Father must know, to be noted for fear of mispronunciation" Mr. Imran told the reason why he asked about dowry ended kelikan.

Ms. Hana who was finished in makeup in another room also entered, followed by Liani, Hasna Indri and Rida with a stomach that had begun to be seen, based on the results of USG, the age of the womb is now four months. Mother also plans to hold a four-monthly thanksgiving Rida after the Shanum event is completed.

"Wa, the guest has come" suddenly Indri loosened his head from the door to tell if the bridegroom and his family group had come.

Mr. Imran and Bu Hana rushed out, they told Shanum to get ready to make Shanum's heart run faster.

The MC also opened the event, starting from the opening, the recitation of the holy verse of the Quran, the greeting of the friendship by the representatives of the Shanum extended family was followed by the presentation by the representatives of the family of the bridegroom who is currently represented by Ustadz Zaki. Ustadz Zaki who has been a spiritual teacher of Akhtar in Bandung, he was very enthusiastic when he received news that his proud students would get married.

Continued with acceptance speech by the representative on behalf of the family of the bride-to-be who then carried out symbolic delivery by Fatimah maam to Bu Hana. The snaking delivery was finally completed evacuated to the room that had been prepared by taking almost half an hour so many shipments.

Core events will be soon. When ijab qabul Shanum deliberately not presented as requested.

"KUA officials delivered the prologue, followed by verifying administrative data and asking for the readiness of Mr. Imran as guardian and also Akhtar as a prospective groom. KUA officers also invited Ustadz Zaki to deliver a wedding sermon.

Not only did Akhtar carefully listen to the wedding sermon delivered by Ustadz Zaki but Shanum was in the dressing room also dissolved the strand of marriage advice.

Ustadz Zaki began his wedding sermon with greetings and strands of do'a for the two bride-to-be. The atmosphere was increasingly quiet when he said, "Marriage is not just an instinctive humane obedience and the fulfillment of biological needs, but in Islamic law marriage is a "great agreement" the dimension of worship must therefore be in accordance with the guidance of Allah Ta'ala and the example of the Prophet"

"Marriage is not a race let alone an experiment. Marriage requires readiness and confidence, ready because every day will see and meet the same person, ready to understand his attitude that is not in accordance with our wishes, ready to be happy, crying and disappointed. Convince ourselves that we are ready to accept our partner with all his shortcomings, because marriage is not to be tried but to be fostered until death"

"Marriage is not the end of everything, but the beginning of a new story that begins on the basis of love for Him for the purpose of worship. The longest worship is a household, so be you a couple who are ready to always learn and improve. Marriage is not an easy thing but if intended for worship then all will be made easy. Marriage is not just lived like running water, but is sought for happiness that always flows. If it has been united keep your love not only in the world, but faithful until His Jannah" concluded Ustadz Zaki concluded do'a and greetings that amenable all attendees.

The sermon full of counsel ended. The KUA officer again guides the procession of akad. Mr. Imran had scrunched his forehead while reading the mascawin written on the note he received from the penghulu. Feeling disbelief because all he knew was a set of prayer tools and gold jewelry

I married and I married you Ananda Akhtar Farzan Wijaya bin Furqan Wijaya with my son named Shanum Najua Azzahra binti Muhammad Imran with a mascavine in the form of a set of prayer tools, plus a set of gold jewelry weighing two hundred and fifty grams and one car Honda Jazz type xxxx, cash.”

I accept his marriage and marry Shanum Najua Azzahra bint Muhammad Imran with the mascavine, cash.”

Almost all who were present were stunned to hear the mascavin mentioned by Mr. Imran, Shanum who heard from his room as if he did not believe what he heard.

"Wowww, the latest Honda Jazz. The price is.amazing!" peekik Liani in room. Hasna only smiled in response, while Shanum remained silent.

"How's the witness, legit?" ask both witnesses and everyone present.

"Saaahhh" everyone enthusiastically in unison replied legitimately.

"Baarakallahu likulii wahidimmingkumaa fii shaahibihi wa jama'a bainakumma fii khayrin"

It means: may Allah bless you, both in joy and sorrow and always gather you both in good.

Do'apun also promised to both brides led by the ruler. Akhtar breathed a sigh of relief, he also looked more relaxed as if the heavy burden that was on his shoulders had flown just like that. His tense face turned more friendly.

While Shanum who heard the legitimate cry breathed a sigh of relief, but his heartbeat was still so tight. Until the time comes the KUA officer calls the bride to sit next to the groom who is now legal as her husband.

Shanum pun berjalan diapit oleh Liani dan Hasna, diirringi Indri, Rida dan pengiring pengantin lainnya memasuki gedung tempat ijab qabul berlangsung.

"Bismil was bornrahmanirrahim" he said in his heart.

Romantic music accompanies Shanum's steps on the red carpet, Akhtar turns as the MCs invite the audience to applaud Shanum's arrival. He gasped when he saw his heart walking towards him. Akhtar's eyes unbrokenly looked at him, he did not expect that his royal girl had now been religiously legitimate and the law of the country became his.

A white wedding dress wrapped in swarovski studded swarovski is in line with the perfectly shaded tiger veil attached to Shanum's body. Minimalist makeup that paints his face of the fix makes Shanum pangling. The aura of the bride's beauty emanated clearly on her face, her curvy lips throwing a sweet smile at everyone who looked at her in awe and haru made her appear even more perfect.

Akhtar was more and more fascinated when Shanum came closer and closer. Shanum's smile further hypnotized him, until he was unconscious when the MC called his name twice to extend his hand to welcome Shanum's arrival. Akhtar who did not focus managed to make everyone's laughter break, until the cry of the three MCs just woke him up.

Shanum was already in front of her, according to the MC direction she finally reached out her hand, sungkem to Akhtar who has now officially become her husband. Akhtar received Shanum's hand, with the reverence for the first time that Shanum kissed Akhtar's hand. It felt like there was a subtle sigh creeping through his chest as he felt Shanum's lips touch the back of his palm.

Ustadz Zaki who was still there for being a marriage witness asked Akhtar to keep his hands right on the crown of Shanum he also guided Akhtar to pray.

"Allahumma inni as’aluka min khoirihaa wa khoirimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih. Wa a’udzubika min syarriha wa syarrimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih."

"That is to say: O God, I ask You for the good of him and the good that You have ordained for him. And I take refuge in Thee from his ugliness and the ugliness Thou hast set upon him. Aamiin's"

Akhtar's words were accompanied by the words of amen from all present. Next the MC nosily shouted for Akhtar to kiss Shanum.

"Kiss, kiss, kiss.." The MC's shout automatically invites others to tease the newlyweds.

Finally timidly Akhtar cupped the two cheeks of Shanum who was already flushed red from enduring the embarrassment, he let out a warm kiss on Shanum's forehead for so long, he let out a warm kiss, it seemed to flow a great love for the woman who has now been halal for him. Shanum closed his eyes and received Akhtar's kiss, which suddenly caused a strange rumble on his body when the chewy object touched his forehead.

Everyone cheered happily watching the two men who had now legally become a husband and wife.

"Woy had woy over time" Ahsan's cry resuscitated Akhtar and he let go of his kisses away from Shanum's forehead, while Shanum lowered his head even more in shame.

The event was resumed, the signatories of the files were completed. Two green and brown books are now in the hands of Akhtar and Shanum. A book engraving the names of both of them that states they are lawful to be husband and wife in the eyes of state law.

The event also continued on the congratulation to the two brides followed by enjoying the dishes that have been provided.

Happiness was clearly on everyone's face today, both Shanum and Akhtar's parents could not even hold back tears of joy at seeing their daughter's son finally unite after a long struggle with their various tests of love. Mr. Furqan who was present was not able to hold back the tears that finally broke from his embankment.

His heart was so happy to see the happiness of his son today, regret even more enveloped his heart. Only he and God know his regrets. The presence of Mr. Furqan alone at the wedding of his son honestly made Ms. Fatimah wonder in her heart but she did not dare to reveal it.

Shanum and Akhtar stood at the footing, receiving congratulations from all the family members present. Akhtar did not let Shanum away from him at all, his hands occasionally stretched out to grab his wife's waist to stay close to him.

Liani and Hasna, followed by Ahsan and Ghifar, were the last to line up to greet the bride. When it was her turn, Liani shouted hysterically hugging Shanum.

"Aaaa....neng Zahra my best friend in the whole world is finally legitimate as well.." he shouted while hugging Shanum, made some people even turn their attention to the two friends who were hugging it.

"Congratulations, Neng. I'm so happy you're finally back with your true love. May be SAMARA PECIN family yes." said Liani with a little loud because the music of the entertainer began to warm the atmosphere.

"Did what the hell is samara pecin" Hasna who was behind Liani also interrupted their chat, she also moved to hug Shanum's former brother-in-law who now feels like his biological brother.

Liani chuckled at Hasna who was curious about what samara pecin was.

"The family of samara pecin means, sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah, full of love." said Liani lantang, he hugged his best friend again and finally the three of them hugged together making Akhtar a little furious because they hugged him long enough.

"His embrace. It's delicious long ago. I'm just her husband has not yet bowed" said Akhtar firmly, his possessiveness began to appear making Liani and Hasna also chuckled. They congratulated Akhtar, followed by Ahsan and Ghifar.

"Congratulations, Bro. Finally halal also do not forget to directly tancap gas, inget age you are not young anymore. Si Rahman and Yusup already want three children" whispered Ahsan in Akhtar's ear.

"Ready! there is no need to be commanded if the business is. I have prepared for a long time" Akhtar replied no less absurd. They both laughed.

"Congratulations Boss, may happiness be with you from now on. I've been sad enough all this time, now good luck always yes" do'a ghifar sincere. He became the one who knows best how Akhtar's life struggles have been.

"Thank you bro, you're the best. You two are the best. Thanks, Brothers" the three of them embraced, Shanum, Liani and Hasna smiled happily, salute their friendship that always sacrificed each other, take care of each other and are there for each other.

"Okay now it's time for us to take a picture" Liani broke the novelty of the three friends. They also take pictures in various styles.

All the guests of the family seemed to be enjoying the dishes with a happy atmosphere. There was still about thirty minutes before the reception began. At the moment they are only two in the guarantee, Ms. Hana, Ms. Fatimah, Mr. Imran and Mr. Furqan are still chatting at the VIP table while enjoying their lunch with other families.

Akhtar again grabbed Shanum's waist which was slightly away from being embarrassed to be the center of attention of some people. However Akhtar did not care that he re-attached Shanum's body to his.

"Here dong Yang, don't go far" he said as he grabbed Shanum's waist to erode their distance.

"Then A, look at the people who are looking at us" sahut Shanum pointed with his chin towards some people who were enjoying the dish but his eyes were on the two of them while whispering with a smile on the face of everyone also felt the happiness of the two newlyweds that's.

"Biarin, they were jealous" Akhtar whispered in Shanum's ear, making Shanum feel Akhtar's breath on his face.

"Darling, thank you...." Akhtar began to speak seriously, his position now hugging Shanum from beside him even slightly leaning his head on Shanum's shoulder.

"Thank you for being a strong woman, thank you for being patient, thank you for fighting. How to make a departure, how to let go without hate, and how to accept the provisions that God has laid out for us" Akhtar spoke softly, his words full of meaning. Describing admiration for the figure of a woman who has always been a idol of her heart that is so strong to live the days of her life with all the troublemakers and challenges until God reunited them.

Ahsan further tightened his embrace at Shanum's waist. Shanum was stunned, moved to hear what Akhtar said. The first man who gave her the experience of feeling the beauty of monkey love has now turned into true love.

"Remain calm, we both believe in God's destiny, if it is time God has brought us together at His best. It's all the same, it's still about you. I just stopped showing it. There is a time, there is a time to hope, there is a time to stop. There was a time to fight, until there was time to finally let go" Shanum rubbed Akhtar's cheek which was now leaning on his shoulder with his left hand,

"From this moment on, Bismillah. May God always guide us every step, so that whatever we do becomes a blessing and whatever we try to bear beautiful fruit" Shanum pruned back rubbing Akhtar's cheeks.

Akhtar looked up, changing his position. He tilted Shanum's body to face ya.

"Aamiin, thank you Shanum Najua Azzahra, I love you with all my soul and body. Keep with me, until his heaven." Akhtar again kissed Shanum's forehead, then hugged him tightly.

All their activities are inseparable from the shots of the photographer who secretly capture every moment of their intimacy.

It's finished!!

But God has facilitated us with the power of the do'a and the effort to achieve what we expect. When tired and almost giving up but God is always the goal, God willing there is no wasted effort and there will be no free do'a. All God answers at the best time.

Anybody curious about the first night of Akhtar and Shanum?..🤭🤭🤭
