One year passed without any development of closeness between Maira and Abbas. Maira is quiet and shy. As for Abbas being silent and cold, that is his attitude towards women. Only the smile that Abbas always gave to Maira.
Maira's feelings just walk in place.The dipper is not welcoming to her feelings. Even so, the feeling will always be there. He was sure that if he kept saying that name in his prayer, God would have heard. Because with the power of do'a at least he has entrusted all the decisions that God has given for his future.
He poured out all his heart in the Diary Book, what he had felt all along. There was a full page he marked because the day meant so much to him.
At that moment Maira was waiting for her Abi to pick her up. As the day wore on, Maira sat on a bench covered with cherry trees to protect her from the sun. He got the news that Abi could not pick up, while Dzuhur's time soon arrived.
Abbas noticed Maira who looked agitated approaching.
"Are you waiting for someone?" abbas's question surprised Maira. From now on, I see you're nervous! did something happen?."
Maira turned to the source of the voice. "Eh, Brother!" Maira then stood up, surprised by the presence of Abbas who greeted him.
"Yes, Brother! I was waiting for Abi to pick him up, but just got word that he couldn't come here, I tried to order Car Online but no one responded" he replied nervously.
"In the meantime, in the time of Dzuhur , you should pray first, after that, I will take you home! wait for me here, if you finish your prayer first" Abbas said.
Maira nodded. "Is it not troublesome, Abbas?" tanyanya doubt.
"No." without hearing a reply from Maira, Abbas left him to enter the ablution, because the dzuhur adhan had been heard reverberating.
Maira was stunned by Abbas's attitude. The man he admires. Dumbness, cold but sensitive to the surroundings. Like this time, it was Maira who needed someone's help to drive her home. Abbas offered himself without asking. There was a feeling of excitement back then, was this the answer to his do'a. Allah has given me a way to be close to Abbas" he said in his heart.
Maira also stepped into the place of ablution women. After the prayer, Maira waited for Abbas at the place they agreed to. And that day was the day Maira remembered the most. That was when he got closer to Abbas. Talk more with him. Abbas's attitude is not much different from before.
Maira always smiles and feels flowery in the heart when remembering that day.the day that will be the sweetest memory when Maira close to Abbas.can be close like that alone has made her happy.
The flashback
"Mai!.hey!.. Anna flicked her hand to the face of Maira. Ko, bengong anyway? again daydreaming what?" asked Anna curiously.
"E-eh. ko, I no longer daydream. Just think, can you go home with Abbas?" maira asked Anna.
"Oh. That's, by any chance, Mai! Bang Abbas likes to climb mountains. Yesterday he sent Meisya, one of the foster children of Ms. Lydia. Turns out the kid lives in the area I went to yesterday, Mai?" anna said excitedly continuing to tell Maira.
Maira only listens to him and occasionally laughs at Anna's story, when there are things that she thinks are funny.
"Hoaammm... are you so sleepy? What is the effect of the medicine you were taking? move to yuk's room, Mai?" Anna invites Maira to move into Anna's room.
"You're the one who moved, An! rest let's recover. I was here first!" argue Maira. Maira was used to being in Kos'an Anna. Even with the person who was in Kos'an, Maira already knew each other.
"Let me help, An? you just go into the room! Here, let me take it to your room! Maira took over the bag Anna was carrying.
"Thank you very much, Mai! I'm not feeling good with you! Is it here? help me too? I feel that from yesterday, it has already troubled many people!" lamented Anna. He continued his steps towards the room with a limp because his right leg was still injured.
"What the hell are you, An? just ordinary!" Maira follows Anna to the room. You rest first, huh? I'd like to sit outside for a minute and put Anna's bag in her dorm room. Maira left Anna who had laid her body on her soft mattress.
"Sorry, yeah. I can't help you, Mai?" said Anna quietly with eyes that almost closed because of her heavy sleepiness.
"Yes, am I outside?" Maira closed the door slowly. Not to bother Anna to rest, because Maira knows her best friend must be very tired after yesterday's activities.
Maira
I immediately sat on the soft sofa in the gathering room. Either be sad, angry, or disappointed that I feel. I listened to Anna tell me. He told me the beautiful atmosphere in the camp made me happy to see my friend happy, but my heart felt tight, sad, I was surprised when Abbas could be in one place with him. Anna was so impressed with Abbas. The attitude that Abbas showed when Anna suffered a calamity that hit him. Silence, indifference that I and Anna knew, but Abbas showed his warm attitude while with Anna there.
It hurts to listen to my best friend tell me about the person he likes right now. Anna and I like the same guy. Only I'm good at covering that up from Anna. I was quieter and less able to blend in with a lot of people.
I was envious of Anna, Anna, who had not known Abbas for a long time, was close and could make Abbas smile a lot when he was with her. Even from Abbas's attitude I can see his gaze is different towards Anna. Perhaps because of Anna's easy-to-socialize nature and easy to mingle with new people.
My heart was tight, as if squeezed into two choices. Perhaps with this, God gave me guidance. Abbas is not a man of destiny for me. I have to take it off.
My story with Abbas can only be written in my Diary. I'll keep it neat, won't let my best friend know about it.
Although I knew Abbas longer than Anna, I could not be selfish, feelings could not be forced, feelings were present to anyone, when and where we could not choose. I am quite resigned to the Supreme Provider, Allah SWT knows better what is good for the servant who always resigned himself to Him.
