HIJRAH LOVE

HIJRAH LOVE
Trust from you


Two days have passed so quickly after Khadijah's operation. And as long as it was a piece of paper containing ink from Khadija I still kept neatly, even I always took it wherever I went. So attached to my memory about the contents inside. And until now I was made curious and worried about Khadija which I do not know of its existence. Because he just disappeared and just left a trust in me on that piece of paper.


*FLASH BACK ON*


That afternoon after Aisyah Galery I decided to visit Khadija and her little baby in the hospital. I was so excited and I can't wait to meet Khadija and have a long chat with her. Likewise with her little baby, I can't wait to hold her again. And soon, they will be allowed to go home and then, live with me in my halfway house with my little family. However, it turned out to be just a fantasy in my life. Because when I got to Khadijah's room, I didn't see him there. I once thought Khadijah had only gone out for a while to see his daughter who was different room with him. So I decided to go there immediately to see the little princess like a little angel.


"Why isn't Khadijah here? Then ... Where is He?"


It turned out that Khadijah was not in the special room of the baby, and what I saw was that there were some mothers who were looking at other babies. I also felt a moment of confusion because, Khadija still I have not found. And it made me have to run around every aisle of the hospital to find Khadijah. However, the result remains the same, Khadija I never found.


"Where are you Khadijah? It's impossible, right, if you just leave us?"


I want to stop for a moment because I feel tired after running around and fro through every hospital hallway. However, I did not want to give up and quit right then and there, so I continued the search for Khadijah who was still not found. And at that time, I found a nurse who used to help Khadija, and I asked her.


"Assalamu'alaikum, Sust. Excuse me, sorry if I interrupted work, you. But, I'd like to ask you about a patient named Khadijah, do you know of his whereabouts?"


"Wa'alaikumsalam, Mom. But sorry, I don't know where Mrs Khadijah is at the moment. Because all I know is that he was still in his room. Then excuse me, because I have to continue my work." The sister also left.


"Thank you, Sust." I bow my head.


I was again shrouded in worry about Khadijah, which I still could not find. I'm like a lost mind, running here and there nonstop. And what I did was seen by Arjuna who was still on duty at the hospital. Then he came up to me to ask me what is it and why? At that moment I explained to Arjuna that Khadijah was not in his room nor in the hospital.


"Umi don't have to worry, we'll see in her room again. Who knows if he's back." Arjuna nodded slowly to convince me.


"Alright, then we go there now to make sure." I also stepped quickly.


Arjuna seemed to be running after me from behind. And once there the result was nil, Khadija was still not in his room. My body suddenly felt weak from fatigue after running far enough. Even the cavities of my throat felt so dry, from feeling thirsty. And just as I was about to grab a glass of water that was on the nightstand, I found a piece of paper there.


"Assalamu'alaikum, Aisha.


Aisha, I also leave my little daughter to you. And oh yes, I have given her a name, Azmi Hafizha Dinillah. Which means a girl has the determination to always maintain the self-respect and religion of God. I trust you as well as Yulian, because I feel confident that you will give me genuine affection and give her the education she deserves.


Aisyah, I once again apologize and also thank you very much for what you have given me all this time. And keep this trust from me, Aisha.


Goodbye to Ayesha.


From Khadijah."


My body was limp, as if it did not have any power to provide energy. Then, my tears slowly dripped down my veil-covered cheeks. And my hope and my wish that made Khadija the second wife of Yulian were instantly destroyed. Because I don't know where Khadija is. Then I called Yulian and told him everything. He soon came to see me. And his embrace strengthened me back to face the fact that Khadija had gone somewhere and where.


*FLASH BACK OFF*


After Kjadijah's departure, I had to take care of her little daughter whom I had adopted as my daughter. And his call was in accordance with what Khadijah wanted, Hafizha. It looks so pretty, has a sharp nose, is white and has brown eyes. So similar to Khadijah, but unfortunately he could not meet his real mother.


"Arjuna, what about Hafizha? When is it allowed to go home?"


"This one, Bi. Juna has also asked for permission from Doctor Jessica to replace Juna on duty in the afternoon until later that evening. So, Juna can help Abi and Umi take care of Hafizha." Arjuna looked at Hafizha who was still in the special room of the baby.


"Thank you, Arjuna. Because you've helped everyone,"


"Isn't that also my duty, Umi. Because I've become his brother." Arjuna painted a smile.


Me and Yulian just nodded slowly confirming what Arjuna had said. And it makes me grateful, because there is no hatred that covers the good in Arjuna's heart. Although I knew from the beginning he never liked the presence of Khadijah in my household. However, with time passing Arjuna was able to accept the presence of Hafizha. An innocent baby who understands nothing. And I can't wait to bring Hafizha home.


"Ahtar call?"


Suddenly my phone rang indicating an incoming call, and the call was none other than Ahtar. But I don't know why Ahtar calls during the day? Could it be that there was something important he wanted to convey immediately? Because, Ahtar also can't wait to meet Hafizha, his little sister.
