THE WORLD OF LOVE SAYS
EPISODE 1: GO HOME
The largest campus in the city
a beautiful woman is focusing on seeing the explanation of the handsome lecturer in her class, this woman named Afika Wulandari Fitriyani is usually called Afika. Afika majors in psychology at the best campus in the city of Jogja.
(class finished)
this time Afika had to go home and continue her part-time work at a cafe near her boarding house.
"cape also sometimes has to be like this, but no matter what Afika spirit!!" afika said in a heart of encouragement
Afika was waiting for an angkot on the outskirts of campus, before long she got a call from her brother.
(lift)
"ASSALAMUALAIKUM AFIKA!" said brother Afika in a panic tone
"walaikumsalam why bang?"
"you're coming home, daddy's dying!"
(phone turned off)
"inalilahi, I must hurry!"
hearing that Afika immediately ran and booked an ojek to the ticket maker.
Afika who panicked immediately booked the fastest ticket to her city.
Thankfully there is one ticket left that will travel this afternoon but at an expensive price. Afika immediately issued all his savings which the money should be used for his college needs now he must use to go home for the sake of the Afika family willing to do it.
Afika bought the ticket and immediately returned to her boarding house but before that she had to ask permission from her lecturer if she had to take a temporary leave as well as she had to get permission with the boss at her job.
because the time was aware that it had shown at 2 pm and Afika remembered that she had not prayed zuhur he stopped first to the mosque and immediately returned home because his flight would begin at half 4 pm.
Afika immediately packed her luggage and she only had a few more leftovers for the fare to the airport and in the end Afika left without a penny.
(at the airport)
Afika until dibandara around 3 pm past 10 minutes he decided to pray Ashar first, after which he immediately chekin and wait for the queue.
After the Afika prayer waiting in the lobby because he was hungry he took the bread he had bought this morning, before long he saw there was a hungry child looking at him. without thinking long Afika gave the bread with the little boy he was forced to drink water to fill his own stomach from the sound of hunger.
4 Hours past 7 minutes Afika was on the plane to be ready to leave.
Short time, the journey made Afika fortunately safe and secure until the destination he reached his city at half 7 pm because he had to board the plane 2 times to get to his city.
(at the city airport)
he called his brother to pick him up, after calling he decided to pray magrib first.
after the prayers Afika magrib waited on the edge of the road at the airport so that his brother did not need to enter the airport to pick him up.
about half an hour Afika waited for her brother with anxious feelings, panicking mixed feelings finally until his brother used a white car his brother's personal car.
(at home)
"bang, why go home? and why don't so many people tell me!!"
Afika immediately ran into her house because she was afraid that something would not happen and she saw her father lying helplessly, weak, Afika cried to see this because she no longer had her parents when her father was gone because Afika's mother had gone duluaan when Afika was still sitting on the bench in 8th grade Junior High.
"dad, Afika came home" said afika holding back tears
Afika weak helplessly looked at her father who had been infused.
Afika waited an hour and her father realized that he was holding her hand gently.
"Dad, afika is here" said Afika softly
his father had Afika pick up a piece of paper and a pen, and Afika's father write something down.
which says:
"My dear son, marry Azmi son of Abdullah father's friend"
"Afika doesn't want daddy!" assertive Afika
his father wrote again soon
"dad would love to see you get married, because he doesn't know when he's going to pick you up"
hearing that Afika fell silent..
"If that's what you want, Afika will do it Daddy" Afika said resignedly
afika's father smiled at her daughter's words. Afika who knew this smiled but immediately her heart was broken when she knew she had to get married.
Afika came out of the room she saw that there was a family that was foreign to her was talking to her brother.
"Afika's here" asked her brother
Afika sat next to her brother
"Afika, I asked to marry you to Azmi son of Abdullah father's friend."
"but bang.."
"branch knows it might be hard for you, but it's for dad you want, right?"
Afika looked at the family once more and she immediately lowered her head
"Afika, aunty tau may be heavy for you. let alone you are still in college but Azmi Aunty's son will definitely be able to make Afika happy anyway it doesn't matter if you are married while in college" said Azmi's mother gently to Afika
"Afika will think again aunt." said Afika
"yes it's okay, aunty will accept whatever it is your decision but remember aunt will only give you a week"
"good Aunt.."
Afika went into her room and prayed, so she cried in prostration to God so that she would not marry the man she had just met.
around 9 o'clock Afika came out of the room and met her brother
"bangs.."
"Afika, marry azmi"
"WHY?!"
"Don't know it might be hard for you but Azmi isn't a bad man! azmi Afika's father's choice! aren't you kasian with dad?!"
"I'm kasian brother! but aren't you sad to see me? who should marry without love! the wedding world is scary!"
"share knows! but marriage isn't as bad as you think!"
"branch, Afika please give time to Afika pray to God that Afika not wrong way brother!"
"well, as the aunt said, you'll be given a week whatever happens you'll be married!"
Abang Afika immediately entered the room in a state of annoyance.
Afika sat on the chair in her home contemplating her fate
"o Allah, why is this so. when Afika does not want to marry a foreign man. o Allah, give the servant the way, O Allah, if this man is truly the best, then match us if not then keep away and fail this marriage" said Afika praying in the heart.
A week passed, Afika still could not decide whether she should marry or not. But when seeing the condition of the father afika who is getting weaker day by day makes Afika weak and can only accept her destiny because Afika believes whatever is her destiny this is what God has written for her.
in the afternoon after the prayer when Afika was ironing a guest who came maybe he was Azmi family who wanted to know the decision Afika. Afika turns off her stitches and comes out
Afika immediately opens the door it turns out it is Azmi but she is only alone.
"assalamualaikum afika" Azmi said gently
"walaikumsalam"
"there's something I want to talk to you about"
"let's go in, of course"
Azmi came in and sat down
"want me to make you a drink?"
"no, I'm just for a minute"
"well, what do you want to say?"
"about marriage.if you don't want to then refuse I'm not forcing you"
"i've been thinking about it"
"whatever your answer will come to dinner at my house with your brother my family will wait, but do not force your heart if you do not want marriage is not something that can be forced"
"alright"
"all right I want to go home assalamualaikum"
"walaikumsalam"
Afika escorted Azmi out of the house before leaving Azmi kept quiet and said without looking at Afika
"if you think this marriage is without love, you're wrong, maybe you don't have that love but not me"
"meaning?"
Azmi immediately left without giving any explanation to Afika.
when Afika wanted to enter the house, she was visited by a group of children from nowhere
"assalamualaikum pretty sister" said the little girl
"walaikumsalam, whose son is this? very pretty"
there are 3 children 1 male 2 female.
"we're one of those orphanages over there" pointed the child out
"oh iyakah, I don't know there's an orphanage turned out. by the way you guys why are you here?"
"we saw Azmi's brother so we came here"
"do you know that guy?"
"of course he used to go to the orphanage to see us. he also often looked at our sister's house sometimes kasian and asked who the owner of this house but unfortunately usually there are only aunty and old grandfather"
"yeah?"
"yes but when we were shopping earlier, we accidentally saw bang azmi smiling and we saw it turns out there is a beautiful sister here.maybe this is a beautiful sister who is often told about brother azmi"
"isn't she pretty?"
"yes, bang azmi often told me she there liked a woman she was beautiful and kind but unfortunately the beautiful sister was long invisible. and Azmi's brother told me again if the woman came he would marry her soon" said the boy
"maybe the beautiful kaka isn't the big sister"
"we believe it is kaka, because Azmi never smiles when talking to women"
"really?"
"then let's go to our orphanage the child will definitely want to meet the kaka"
"wah sorry yes adek tomorrow yes kaka to the orphanage because my sister's father is sick again" said Afika
"well, yes, we go home, brother assalamualaikum"
Seeing their departure Afika became sad even though Afika was lucky to have a complete family but sometimes she often complained while the child continued to smile.
"i should have learned a lot from them" Afika said
Afika saw the clock on her watch did not feel it had shown at 3 o'clock.
"astaghfirullah must cook for father" said Afika in a hurry
Afika immediately ran into the kitchen and sauteed kale vegetables that her sister-in-law had bought this morning.
no one called him long ago from an Afika friend named Lauren
(lift)
"assalamualaikum!!" lauren panicked
"walaikumsalam what is ren?"
"what are you doing?? I heard you're on leave, huh what's the matter??" lauren asked worried about her best friend
"my father is sick again ren"
"inalillahi, really?? so how's that??"
"well Alhamdulillah it's a bit good, but I'm not good"
"what's wrong??"
"i got set up ren"
"stupid? same who?"
"the same santri named Azmi he's my father's son"
"well, don't you like reza, right?"
"yes but fate says something else" said Afika resigned
"you already, maybe Allah knows which is best for you. Maybe according to Allah you are better with Azmi instead of reza"
"Maybe"
"have a greeting to your family yes, I will be there if you need me"
"iya ren thanks ya"
"yes assalamualaikum"
"walaikumsalam"
(phone turned off)
hearing Lauren's words made Afika's heart a little relieved maybe true God is omniscient knowing we are just his servant who does not know what.
There was no long sound of bells signifying Afika's father calling Afika
"yes for a moment Dad" cried Afika from the kitchen
Afika immediately takes food for her father as well as drinks and takes him to the room.
Afika rubbed her father's forehead using a rag, and fed his father food.
"dad, look now.dad taught me how to eat now I'm the one who feeds daddy, daddy used to feed me now it's my turn to feed daddy eat"
his father just smiled, Afika's father was happy to have a daughter like Afika.
Afika's father wrote again in the book inscribed
"thank you for the most beautiful child"
Afika saw the paper immediately blushed in embarrassment
"thank you dad"
(short time)
After the Ashar prayer, Abang Afika visited again with his son and wife.

"walaikumsalam kaka-in-law. uh this is Aunt's niece funny huh"
"iya dong is pretty rich right"

"hm yaudah"
"oh, how did you make that decision?"
