My Bow to the Destiny of Love
What an incredible change

Days change, Sundays change, months change. It did not feel nearly a year Zidane guided Ardian to study. Ardian has lived in his in-laws' house ever since.

Just counting the days anyway, Ardian will graduate to get his Master's degree. That certainly makes him more grateful with his life getting better.

Apprenticeship in her Papi company since a few months ago, made her have basic experience in working. The activity is really solid. There is no time to just unwind. Just come home from her Papi's office until eight or nine o'clock at night. It's just that the Papi was kind enough to let Ardian in three times a week.

Today, Ardian will face the final test. After establishing the dawn prayer, he was well dressed. Dressed in white long sleeves and black pants, complete with pantofel shoes wrapped in her legs.

"God, my husband looks so handsome when he dresses like this." Chayra suddenly hugged her husband's body from behind.

Ardian smiled gently. Pulling his wife's hand so it doesn't just come off her waist. "Please pray for me, may Allah make every step easier for me." Turning around and hugging Chayra's body.

"Aamiin. my prayers always accompany Brother's steps."

"I'm stubborn, honey."

"The name will also face the test, of course deg-degan. The point is, Brother should be calm. Don't think too much about it and become a burden on the mind."

Ardian leaned his head over Chayra's head. "I didn't expect to graduate on time. Papi and Mami were moved yesterday."

"Of course it was S1 yesterday, Big Brother didn't graduate on time?"

"Add one year. The title of the script was changed twice."

"Can't you?"

"I'm too lazy. Frequently scolded Lecturers as well. I am often late. You know what my life was like before?" Ardian took a deep breath. "Every now I feel amazing when I can finish the exam without much coals."

Chayra patted her husband on the back. "Already, ah. He said later that the exam was over. Now Brother is leaving. Don't be late because of this show." Withdrawing from Ardian's embrace.

Ardian nodded, releasing his embrace while wiping his tears.

"Lho, is Ardian crying?" Closer and rubbed the remains of her husband's tears.

"Yes" chuckled. "I still can't believe this is me. Ardian will get his Masters degree in a moment. I still can't believe I'm a good guy. I'm no longer the drunk who always makes trouble. I'm no longer the man who ruined the future of many women. I've changed now."

Chayra breathed a sigh of relief. Smiling warmly while rubbing her husband's face. "That is a wonderful gift from God to Brother."

Ardian held Chayra's hand on his cheek. "It's all because of you, honey. I can be like this because of you. You've been instrumental in this great change in life." Turning around, walked slowly towards the window of his room.

"It turns out, as beautiful as this it feels to be a good human being. There's nothing to worry about. Feelings and souls filled with tranquility."

Ardian breathed a heavy sigh. "I didn't expect, the woman I hated so much at the beginning of the meeting, to be my current change control rope."

"Don't remember it again, brother. It's just the past." Chayra touched her husband's arm.

Ardian turned around and immediately hugged his wife's body. "I love you, Chayra Azzahra. I love you with my whole life. In the future, stay with me in joy and sorrow." Ardian shed his tears again. The tears fell on the shoulders of the wife he was holding.

"God willing..." Chayra knitted her brows as the scent of Ardian perfume stirred her stomach.

"Lho, what's wrong with you?" Ardian was surprised when he took off his embrace because he found Chayra was covering her mouth.

"Sister's perfume is too much. It also smells very bad on the nose. I'm gonna throw up and kiss her."

"What time?! The feeling I sprayed it wasn't overkill." Kissing some parts of his body. "From that hug, no nausea, right?"

"I was wearing a niqab, brother. Don't extend it, you'll be late. Let's just get off now."

"Yes..." Ardian still kissed some parts of his body. Grabbing his backpack lying on his study desk.

Arrive in the family room. Ardian and Chayra were already greeted with warm smiles from Renata and Sucipto.

"Morning tumben is neat, son. What's the show?"

"Ardian there's a final exam, Mi. Ask for his prayers hopefully Ardian given ease in answering."

"Mommy and Papi always wish you all the best, son." Renata stretched out her arms to hug Ardian.

Ardian was moved, pouring into his Mom's arms. After all these years of not feeling a mother's warm embrace. Now he can feel it again.

Sucipto who was standing next to Ardian could only pat his son on the back. "I'm sorry we've been through your infancy, son. The presence of Ayra and her family in your life made us aware. How much support from the family plays an important role in various fields."

After arriving in front of the car.

"Why cry, Chay.." wiped the tears still running down his wife's cheek.

"I was moved to see Brother's interaction earlier."

"Why? That's what I should do, right? Zidane taught me that a few times. But I only practiced it once. "Eh, I haven't asked Zidane's brother for permission."

"Izin for what?"

"Can't attend class this afternoon."

"Sir Zidane has accepted that, brother. Zidane is a good guy. I don't like to be angry either. Not like a fierce Abah."

Ardian just smiled as he patted Chayra's head.. "Come, we're leaving."

**********

Ardian smiled at his wife who was waiting in front of the class. Hugging Chayra tightly. "I can answer all questions easily."

"Khmmm, sorry. See the condition if you want to hug. This is the Campus area."

Sontak Ardian and Chayra let each other off their arms in surprise. Staring at the person who was standing cross-legged staring at them.

"Astagfirullahal'adzim, forgive us, Brother, uh, sir." Chayra was embarrassed.

Ghibran smiled cynically. "It turns out you still like to be privileged. I guess after you got married with a rogue, you forgot to take a beristighfar."

"My husband is not as bad as you can see. We say goodbye, assalamualaikum." Chayra pulls Ardian's hand away from Ghibran.

The ghibran simply breathed a rough breath as it passed.

"When he became Ustadz, his profession was a Lecturer paforit wherever he taught. Eh, how does his behavior demean people like that." Chayra ngedumel herself. Ghibran's words really offended him.

"Not to think about. Think of the wind as past. God willing, his words will have no effect on us."

Chayra stopped her steps. Turning looked at Ardian who he still held tightly to his hand. "His words are very sad, brother. Put it on said Brother is all-robed. How good is he?"

"You know who he is. You know his profession. In fact, you were also once close to him. You shouldn't ask how good he is. Ask yourself, because the answer is already here." Pointing to Chayra's chest.

Chayra grunts. "He looks different now. Why try, sewot with the person who is hugging her husband."

"He's hired because he still loves you, Chay."

"No..!" The sound of a cellphone ringing in the pocket of the blazer he was wearing made Chayra distracted.

"Assalamualaikum, Pi.."

"Ardian's test is done yet."

"Alhamdulillah, already. Brother Ardian can also answer everything easily."

"I don't need that information. You guys go home now..!"

"What's up....?"

The phone connection was closed unilaterally by Sucipto. Chayra knitted her brows in wonder.

"Why, Chay?"

"No idea. Papi seems to be angry. He asked us to go home"

"Yes, we're home now." Ardian seemed to casually respond to his wife's remark.

Chayra was still astonished by her in-laws earlier. Sucipto had never ignored his greetings before. However, his words just now sounded like he was being ignited by emotions.

"Oh my God, may all be well." Lirih. Entering the car with a bad feeling.
