Thousand Wounds
009

When Hafiza was trying to try to hold the pounding in her heart as a result of Riko's actions, Husna is precisely now in the midst of turmoil that seems to make her feelings are oscillating in the uncertain choice that will be taken. For a moment Husna stopped his footsteps because he was currently watching a scene that had never been seen by him. How not, Husna who was asked by Umi to find his sister because he never arrived home after from the mosque, is now seen smiling sumeringah at the figure of the young man in front of him. As far as Husna his sister is not a typical woman who is easily close to others, especially the opposite sex. It's not without reason that Hafiza behaves like that. She is a shy girl who is quite introverted and rarely talks to others. During this time, he was too focused on medical education that approximately one year has been lived. In addition, he is now focused on completing the target of his Quran Memorization. So, of course, it gave rise to a thousand question marks in Husna's mind. What happened to his sister?Will he have a taste for that man?

After watching for a long time the two people who stood not too far from their current place, Husna could confirm if the person who was currently with her sister was Riko. A man who is willing to be his brother's successor to marry himself.

Husna again put his foot down, which had stopped. He walked to the mini park where his sister and Riko were together. Now Husna has been right next to the two people who look still chatting casually. Then Husna said his greetings.

"Asalamualaikum" Husna said in a soft tone.

Hafiza and Riko who heard the voice of someone giving greetings look to turn at the same time towards the greeters. They looked surprised when they saw Husna standing right next to them.

"Waalaikumsalam," answered Hafiza and Riko simultaneously.

Clearly visible familiarity that had been created, now turned into awkwardness after the arrival of Husna.

"Sorry to be disturbing, but earlier I asked for help to look for you, because at home all the family is waiting," explained Husna.

"Alright then, I go back home first," camit Riko told the two women while smiling kindly at them. Then Riko turned her body and stepped away from the garden.

In the garden there are only Husna and Hafiza who are still silent a thousand languages. The awkwardness between the brothers was so pronounced. Soon, Husna took the initiative first to break the awkwardness. He invited his sister to sit together in a long chair in that place.

"Sister,"call Hafiza after they both sit down.

"How did you decide about that proposal?"

"Will my sister accept it?"

"Who would you choose?" asked Hafiza in a cautious tone. He did not want his brother to know, if he was currently feeling worried. Even more precisely she felt afraid if her brother decided to have Riko to be her husband.

Husna is not an insensitive person. He could easily catch the tone of worry in every word his sister said. Of course, it convinced Husna of the truth of his assumption if his sister was currently in love with Riko

However, he chose not to ask his sister directly. He knows his sister very well. Without even being asked, his sister would tell him about what he was currently feeling.

" Mmm, honestly deck is actually sister's eager to reject the proposal."

"As we all know, Raka herself refused to marry her sister."

"This marriage was merely the wish of her parents."

"But, the Goddess' mother had asked her sister to accept a proposal from their family."

"sister could not bear to refuse it" explained Husna.

"Are you not considering accepting it? asked Hafiza with an uncertain feeling.

" Mmm ..,"Husna pretended to think for a moment.

"Where is the deck?"

"It looks like you can't accept Riko's offer."

"It's not because he's Raka's sister, but because he feels that there is a heart that must be taken care of" Husna said with a meaningful smile to his sister.

At once the brother's speech was returned with a warm embrace from Hafiza.

" Sister Hafiza apologizes for Hafiza being such a selfish sister."

"Hafiza should not have this taste for Riko" Hafiza said on the sidelines of his sobs that he could no longer hold back.

" Deck, you're sorry."

"You're not wrong."

"You must know, Love is a gift that God gives."

"We can never manage when love will come and when it will go."

"Even to whom Love will be anchored."

"It is God's programmatic right to govern it."

"Trust that God is

the best regulator."

"God will leave something in the right place."

"We are grateful enough" Husna replied as she rubbed Hafiza's back.
