Luth just let his smartphone ring. Since earlier, the phone rang asking to be answered but he was too lazy to see who was calling him. It seems that there is no need to guess anymore, it must be that crazy woman who is calling.
Endlessly wants to disturb his life.
He sighed harshly. He's starting to get bored with the life he's living. Unhealthy night activities keep him away from being a true Muslim¹. In fact he knows, visiting such places he will not get a Safa Salena. His dream girl who now belongs to his best friend, Mika.
He wants a woman who is really worthy to be his wife.
The one who is good at taking care of self-respect for her husband. Those who are true followers of Islam and the people of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace.
Ustaz² Hanafi said, he needs to be good to get a good wife. If you still go to a night club or a disco, are there any women who wear hijab and cover their aurat³ there? That was one of the main facts given that made him think deeply.
He once liked Mika's wife, his friend. He wants such a woman to be a queen in his heart.
It's definitely impossible for Marina. Fina? Gone to New York already. Those two useless sisters!
Fortunately, Mika and his family did not take further action. Otherwise, let alone New York, the two of them will not escape even into the wormhole.
It's okay. You guys might slip away here but in the afterlife? God is just.
He was furious though. Every time he thought about it, his heart ached furthermore when it involved Safa. When he heard that crazy woman's brave confession the more angry he became.
While daydreaming, the ringing that had stopped earlier began to ring again loudly. He is too lazy to take it but his hand was still extended to the glass table in front of the sofa he was sitting on. He wanted to reach the television remote control but his eyes managed to scan the caller's name.
Hasya!
He immediately reached for the white smartphone. The call that was almost cut off, he managed to answer.
Luth: Sya! Sorry!
Hasya nagged: I call so many times, why don't you answer?
Luth quickly explained: Sorry! Sorry! I thought it was Marina earlier.
Hasya: Huh! That woman is bothering you again?
Luth: Hmm..
Hasya: She's really thick skinned!
Luth: Hmm..
Hasya: Is that all your reply? Why, are you mute already?
Luth: Watch your mouth! You're lucky we're too far away. If it's close, I would have already flicked your mouth up to the sky.
Hasya: Do it if you dare!
Luth: Huh! Why the call? Your friend still wants to work with me right? Don't tell me she wants to cancel it. I don't have enough workers right now!
Hasya: Don't worry. I have already forced her. I'll drag her even if she doesn't want to!
Luth: Good!
Hasya: Tomorrow, tell our brother Aman to take us from college after Zuhr⁴. I don't want to wait a long time.
Luth: Yes, princess Tengku⁵ Hasya Alina...
Hasya: Don't you forget!
Luth: Yeah...
