Halal Love of the Senior
A Brand New Day's

Mas Restu calling ....

That's how it looks on the screen, when the device vibrates. Adelia who had just come out of the bathroom frowned when she saw who called her.

"Would he call?" he muttered quietly without intending to answer the call from Restu. He just let his gawai until it stopped vibrating on its own.

Since Restu broke off their engagement, since then he has never been in contact with his former fiancee again. Although his heart ached and continued to lament his fate, he no longer wanted to meet Restu again or relate in any form.

Before long the dress again vibrated, the name Restu again appeared on the screen. He again let his gawai stop vibrating on his own, after which he set his gawai with silent mode.

He grunted annoyedly. Why did Restu contact her again. Her ex-boyfriend is also married to a woman who is pregnant with her child. Only just now did he feel happiness because Adi proposed to him. But now his mood instantly changed drastically.

He leaned his back on the headboard. He took a long breath. His intention was to do the thesis before going to bed, but because his mood was already chaotic, he undo it. Free also he forced himself, because working on the thesis needed a calm mind and a good mood.

He took his gawai, intending to see the results of the photo during the application earlier. Although there is no picture of him alone with Adi, but he is already very happy. Her future husband greatly appreciated and respected her as a woman. Ah ... prospective husband, he smiled to himself.

He never expected this fast that God would give him happiness. After the pain and disappointment he experienced, God gave him a new love. Genuine and unadulterated love *****. The love that grows after drawing closer to the Master of the Heart.

When he was engrossed in seeing the photos of the application that had been taken by Arsenio with his dress, suddenly there was a call from Restu again. Without a second thought, he immediately rejected it. With a frown, he looked for Restu's contact number to block his number. He did not understand why Restu came back to contact him when they had no business anymore.

Before you can block the Restu number, there is a message that goes into the gadget.

'Why was my phone rejected?'

'I miss you, Yank.'

'I want to hear your voice.'

Adelia gasped as she opened the message that turned out to be from Restu. He took a long breath. He was confused about having to reply or just let the message go.

'I still love you, Yank.'

'It turns out only you can understand me.'

'I'm so sorry.'

'I want us to go back to what we used to be.'

Adelia's chest rose and fell rapidly after reading the incoming message. He's so emotional. What the hell Restu heartily wants to ask him back after what he did first. Must not be proposed Adi, he will not be willing to return with Restu.

"Astaghfirullah pah adzim .. astaghfirullah pah adzim ...." Adelia repeatedly beristighfar to dampen her emotions. He tried to catch his breath to get back to normal.

'I'm glad you want to read my message, Yank.'

'But I'd be happier if you would reply.'

Adelia read a message from Restu. He had to take firm action so that his former fiancee would not harass him anymore. Finally he decided to reply to Restu's message, affirming that he did not want to be in contact with Restu anymore.

'Don't ever call me again. Remember you have a wife and soon you will have children. And I, will never come back to you again.'

Adelia sent the message. After confirming the message was sent, he immediately blocked Restu's number. He then breathed a sigh of relief. The man will not be able to contact her again.

He looked back at the photos of his application. He intends to upload a photo of the application on his social media account. He realized that he had not opened his social media account for long.

She rolled up her social media account screen. Lots of photos and also Restu there. One by one, he began to delete all of his photos without the hijab and also Restu. Just leave some photos of the scenery or food that he had uploaded.

His profile picture changed. He photographed the ring that Bu Hasna had placed on his ring finger. He uploaded the photo into a profile photo and his first post on social media.

That's what he wrote as a caption.

Before long many liked and commented on his post.

'Beauty the ring 😍.'

'Are you married or are you married? How not to let me 😭.'

'Congratulations, Del. Hopefully samawa.'

'Congratulation Adelia, I'm happy fo you.'

And all sorts of other comments. He smiled reading through all the comments without intending to reply. Let it be a mystery until the time comes when he is officially married. She doesn't want to mention her relationship on social media.

Someone also sent her a private message. He nodded and it turned out that Restu was one of them. He patted her forehead. How could he forget that he and Restu were following each other.

He opened a message from Restu.

'Why are you blocking my number? You have the heart, Yank.'

'Who's the ring from, Yank? Is that how fast you forgot me?'

'Why did you delete all of our memorable photos?'

Without reading Restu's other messages he immediately blocked Restu's account without replying. He also changed his account settings to private (locked). So only his followers can see his posts.

He again breathed a sigh of relief. All of Restu's access to contact him was blocked. He wants to open a new chapter in his life. Forgetting all the past sins. To meet the future with Adi as his future priest.

After opening her social media account, Adelia opened her photo gallery. Search and delete all the photos of her ex-boyfriend that may still be left. He really did not want to see Restu anymore even if only in the photos.

After reading her ex-boyfriend's message, she realized that Restu was not a good man. When the man had responsibility for his wife and future children, he contacted his ex-girlfriend instead. Saying that they are still in love and want them back to what they used to be. What an unfaithful man.

Once again he gave thanks, because God had shown the true nature of the man before they were married. He did not think about how it would only be revealed after they got married. He shuddered, unwilling to imagine things that were no longer important to him.

God's destiny has always been a mystery. Who would have guessed, those who were predicted as a perfect couple turned out to be finally separated. And, fate brings him to Adi. A figure that never crossed his mind at all. Let alone imagining Adi being her husband, the intention to get acquainted she has no. Because they had never met before.

Did not feel the time has shown at 00.00 WIB in his dress. He was too engrossed in seeing and deleting the photos in his gallery to forget the time. Not all of Restu's photos have been deleted because there are so many. He plans to wipe everything out by morning. Now he has to sleep because tomorrow he has to wake up in a third of the night for Tahajud prayers.

Adelia placed the device on the nightstand after turning off her internet connection. After that, he laid his body. He was already wudu while in the bathroom, because it has not been canceled he does not wudu anymore. He prayed before closing his eyes to enter the dreamland.
