Fatma is still thinking about her dream, her heart keeps wondering who the woman in her dream is. Shortly thereafter, Hendra, who had just come out of the bathroom, rushed over to his wife, who seemed to be daydreaming.
"Fatma, what's wrong? Why are you daydreaming?" Hendra asked softly.
Fatma gasped a little. "Hendra, you surprised me. No, baby I'm not daydreaming". Fatma replied.
Hendra smiled. "Your cheeks will turn red when you are lying".
Suddenly Fatma immediately held her cheeks on reflex. "Is that right?". Asked Fatma curiously.
However, Hendra only laughed at the funny behavior of his wife. "Why you laughing?". Said Fatma confused.
"You are funny, huh, even though I was just kidding. But you took it seriously, and now it is discovered that you were daydreaming earlier". Hendra replied, laughing again.
Fatma immediately pursed her lips, while Hendra was laughing more and more amusedly seeing Fatma's very cute behavior.
"Yes, don't sulk, my wife, I have good news for you." Said Hendra.
"Good news? What about baby?". Asked Fatma curiously.
"I was promoted to become operations manager and must transfer to a new office". Hendra said enthusiastically.
"Alhamdulillah, I'm happy to hear that. Congratulations, just consider this the most beautiful gift from Allah for our marriage. But by the way, where do you want to be transferred?".
Hendra smiled. "Jakarta".
"What? !! Jakarta? So far, how many months do you return home?". Fatma muttered.
"It won't feel far if we live it together". Hendra replied, who immediately pinched his wife's chin lightly.
"What do you mean?"
"Yes, you also went with me, to Jakarta. Because there, I and you got an official residence and its facilities."
Fatma was stunned by her husband's words. "Really? Alhamdulillah, thank you, Allah, for all the blessings you have given". Said Fatma.
"Now, let's tell you and your parents first because we have to go to Jakarta Saturday morning this week". Said Hendra who immediately invited Fatma to meet his parents.
♡♡♡
Today it was time for Hendra and Fatma to go to Jakarta, they were both at Abdul Rachman Saleh Airport. Both of Fatma's parents also accompanied their daughter and son-in-law before leaving for Jakarta.
There is a sadness in Fatma's heart who has to stay away from her parents. But this has become her obligation as a wife who has to go wherever her husband goes.
"Mom, you are healthy, don't be tired. Because now no one helps you at home anymore." Said Fatma.
"Fatma, you don't have to worry about mom. Instead, you shouldn't be tired and you also have to be careful there. Jakarta is different from Malang, so you have to be careful and don't easily trust people you just know". Muttered the mother.
"Yes ma'am, Fatma will always remember all your messages". Fatma replied, who immediately hugged her mother.
After waiting for about thirty minutes, they arrived at check-in. After saying goodbye to her parents, Fatma walked by holding Hendra beside her. This was her first experience of getting on a plane, Fatma repeatedly told Hendra that she was afraid, but Hendra gently calmed her wife's heart so that she would not be afraid again.
The two of them are now on the plane that will take them both to Jakarta. Hendra faithfully held Fatma's hand so as not to feel afraid, Fatma closed her eyes as the plane began to slowly move. After the plane was airborne, Hendra asked Fatma to open her eyes and slowly looked at the window. Fatma was stunned when she saw the beauty of the vast expanse of sky in front of her eyes.
"Masha Allah, The sky is so beautiful, the white clouds look very beautiful like cotton". Said Fatma.
Hendra smiled. "Yes, dear, beautiful like you". Hendra replied softly to Fatma's ear.
Fatma also giggled softly at her husband's scorn. "You're crap, baby". Murmured Fatma, which immediately pinched Hendra's nose.
Soon Fatma fell asleep on her husband's shoulder until the plane arrived in Jakarta. Hendra woke up Fatma, Fatma immediately blinked and looked at the window of the plane that was already on the ground.
"We're there baby?". Asked Fatma.
"Yes dear, Alhamdulillah we've arrived". Hendra replied.
"Alhamdulillah, please wait a moment. I'll clean up my hijab first". Fatma muttered.
The two of them immediately rushed down after the queue was not too crowded. Fatma also feels happy because now she has set foot in Jakarta. Along the way to her new home, Fatma is presented with views of towering skyscrapers.
After driving for about forty-five minutes, they both finally arrived at the official residence. Fatma also never stopped giving thanks because the blessings that Allah loves are extraordinary.
"Baby, whose car is this?". Asked Fatma confused.
"Oh, that is also one of the facilities that I get dear, from now on we can use the car to get around Jakarta". Hendra replied with a smile.
"Oh Allah, there are complete facilities that they give you. You are more enthusiastic about your work, because the company is very kind to you, baby." Fatma muttered.
"Yes dear, that's for sure. Let's go inside". Invite Hendra.
Fatma immediately walked following Hendra behind her, she was very proud to have a husband like Hendra. Because for him Hendra is very active at work and also very much loves himself and his family, Fatma also continues to give thanks for what Allah has given him.

After finishing the Asr prayer, Fatma decided to look around the area around her housing. She was very lucky because the house they lived in was right in front of a garden. Fatma decided to relax for a while in the park, which happened to have an artificial lake which made the park look even more beautiful.
Fatma also decided to make a video call to the mother, because she wanted to share happiness with her parents. Because after all, they both have the right to know that their only daughter will be fine living far away.
"Assalamualaikum mom, what are you doing?" Said Fatma, who immediately saw his mother's face on his cellphone screen.
"Waalaikumsalam, mom just finished cooking for dinner. How are things there? Is everything all right?"
"Alhamdulillah, ma'am, everything is fine. I didn't think that the office facilities that Hendra got were so very complete, ma'am, do you know? Our house is right in front of a garden, where is Papa? Murmured Fatma who immediately turned the camera to the back and showed the surrounding area to the mother.
"Papa not home yet, sweetie, Thank God, if everything can be useful for both of you, you and Hendra, don't forget to pray. After all, this is all a blessing from Allah, it's been a long time ago. It looks like there are guests in front, I want to go to the front first, yes, you are careful there and remember your message."
"Yes ma'am for sure, yes ma'am, we'll connect again later. Greetings to you, ma'am, Assalamualaikum."
"Yes, I'll send your greetings to you, Waalaikumsalam."
The video call was cut off, Fatma felt relieved when she heard and saw her parents' faces. Not long after, someone's voice greeted her, Fatma immediately turned her head back and greeted the person back.
"Hey, new neighbor?". Said the person.
Fatma also turned to the person and smiled. "Yes, miss, I was just here. Just arrived this afternoon". Fatma replied.
The person immediately sat beside Fatma. "Introduce, I'm Kinara. You can call me Kinar". Said Kinar, who immediately stretched out her hand.
Fatma also shakes Kinar's hand. "I am Fatma Pasha, you can call me Fatma. Nice to meet you, oh where is your house next to?". Asked Fatma enthusiastically.
"Okay, nice to meet you, Fatma. That's my house". Murmured Kinar who immediately pointed to his house.
"Oh that, my house happens to be right next to Ms. Kinar's house. Do you live with your husband and children?" Said Fatma, pointing to her house.
Kinar laughed. "I live alone and I happen to be unmarried. What about you?".
"Oh, sorry miss. I don't know, Alhamdulillah I was married and my husband happened to be transferred here so I moved here".
"I see, it's good if you already have a husband. Someone accompanies him everywhere". Said Kinar.
Fatma just laughed, soon Hendra came over to her. "Honey, you're here". Said Hendra.
"Baby you already awake? Yes, I'm taking a look around the area. Baby, introduce you to this, Ms. Kinar, our next-door neighbor". Fatma replied.
"Kinar — Hendra"
"Handsome guy too." Kinar muttered to himself.
"Honey, you better get ready now because I want to take you somewhere". Said Hendra.
"Where?". Asked Fatma enthusiastically.
"If you tell me now the name is not a surprise". Hendra muttered.
"Yes, what about you, Fatma, get ready. Don't mess up your husband's plans." Exclaimed Kinar.
Fatma smiles. "Yes, Ms. Kinar, then I'll come in first, miss. Tomorrow we will continue to chat". Fatma replied, who immediately went into the house with Hendra.
Kinar also agrees with Fatma's words, Kinar does not expect that a Fatma can get a handsome husband and is also financially secure. For Kinar, Hendra is her ideal type of man, and Kinar starts looking for ways to talk together with Hendra.
