Since contacting Arshad this afternoon, Aisyah felt strange. Was Arshad really that busy or did something bad happen to Arshad? But remembering the Ummi saying that Arshad was fine, made him feel even more strange. Is he really okay? or ummi purposely said it just to make her not to worry? Aisyah kept thinking about those things until she decided one thing. He should go back. No matter if Arshad will accept it or not, which is certain to eliminate this turmoil, he must return first.
With a hasty step and still using mukena because he had just finished performing the ashar prayer, Aisyah looked for Anam to her room. He found Anam struggling with his laptop.
"At busy, brother?"tanya Aisyah made Anam turn her head and immediately closed her laptop.
"No, just send me an email. Why?"
"Acha wants to go home to Jakarta today as well." replied Aisyah steadily making Anam surprised. Just this morning his sister said that he was going back to Jakarta next week, why change his mind now?
"Why suddenly gini? didn't you just say you wanted to go home next week? how did you change your mind?"
"In retrospect, that's overtime. What is my college? there is no way dong in staying for long." said Aisyah reasoned.
"Serious because of college? not because of the others?"goda Anam makes Aisyah wrong.
"What other reason? there's no tuh."
"Seriously? not because of Arshad?...."
Aisyah cleared her throat then with a hint of confidence, she looked at Anam from the corner of her eyes.
"If so, why? just aja anyway! his name is also married."
"Yes yes, the one who married is different." - Anam replied.
"That's fine. Fucking singles!"
"Eh, sorry about before. Not single anymore. I want to get married. Note tuh!"
"Newly wanted, not necessarily so. That's just proud."
"Astaghfirullah, that's the mouth in the guard,cha! what will it be like as a do'a?"
"Bodo very! I don't want to know, I have to leave tonight. Can't delay!"
Anam nodded resignedly, "yes, princess."
Aisyah immediately went back to the room and cleaned up her belongings. He has to make sure that nothing is left behind.

Aisyah and Anam are at the airport. The clock was at 8pm and Aisyah was getting ready for the flight.
"I'm sorry because you can't go to Jakarta with you. There is still something to take care of here." Anam said.
Aisyah nodded, "no pa-pa, I'm used to it myself anyway. Brother, calm down! if so I leave first, take care of your brother's health here!"
"Yes, don't forget to send greetings to ummi and abi because they still haven't had time to visit!"
"Yes, assalamualaikum."
"Wa'alaikumussalam."Anam waved her hand as Aisyah had already started to move away.
Aisyah finally made a flight to Jakarta. A sweet smile was etched on his face. Given that he would soon meet with Arshad made him even more happy and excited. Finally, soon she could meet the husband she had been missing for a week. Hope everything's okay.

When the clock shows at half ten, Aisyah finally arrived in Jakarta safely. Aisyah pulled her luggage and intended to contact Arshad. But when he saw the clock showing at half ten, made Aisyah cancel her intention. Maybe it would be better if he came home in a taxi. If he contacts Arshad and Arshad is on break how? that would be very disturbing for Arshad.
After the taxi he ordered came, Aisyah immediately drove to her home address and Arshad. The closer to his goal, inexplicably made him even more worried. Did something really happen to Arshad?
"Sir, please hurry up!"pinta Aisyah with an uneasy feeling.
"Good, mbak."
"Sir Udin!"
"Eh, is Ayesha home yet? what's this clock?"ask Mr. Udin while opening the gate.
"Yes, sir, I don't feel good. Is Arshad home?"
"There's a house at mbak."
Aisyah nodded in understanding, "if I go inside first, sir. Excuse me."
"Yes, suck."
Aisyah pressed the bell button and shortly after that bi Nah came out.
"Mbak Aisha? why's it coming home at this hour, popp?" Bi Nah helped bring Aisyah's things in.
"I don't feel good, Bri. Is Arshad asleep?"
"Udah,ba. But it was able to fret about Aisyah. Since Aisyah left, Arshad mas so rarely at home, prefer overtime and sleep in the office. If you go home only during the day. He said he wanted to make sure that Ayesha had gone home or not."
Hearing that made Aisyah astonished. Since he left? what the hell is going on? why does Arshad always want to ensure his return? didn't Ummi tell Arshad about him? something is wrong, she thought.
"If so I go to the room first yes, bi. Let me bring it myself. Thanks before. Aunt can take another break."
"Well, I'm sorry aunt."
Aisyah nodded then after bi Nah left, Aisyah immediately brought her suitcase to the room.
THE CLUCK!
Aisyah's eyes rounded when she saw the room that had turned into a broken ship. Is there an earthquake here? what exactly is going on?
"Astaghfirullah's. This is a room or a barn, anyway? the warehouse isn't this dirty."Aisyah turned to look at Arshad who was asleep. A smile rose and Aisyah approached to see Arshad's face.
"Still wearing clothes like this you've been sleeping. So tired of you, huh, mom?"Aisyah also touched Arshad's hand which felt very hot.
"Astaghfirullah."Aisyah also examined Arshad's forehead which felt even hotter.
"You have fever? Astaghfirullah, why are you sick anyway?"Aisyah hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare us a compress for Arshad.
All night Aisha kept watch and cared for Arshad. Even Ayesha fell asleep sitting on the floor with her head on the bed and her hands that did not stop holding Arshad's hands.
As the dawn of the Azan reverberated, Aisha heard a loud voice coming from Arshad's mouth. Aisyah instantly woke up and looked at Arshad worriedly mixed with pleasure.
"Compress? who's the..."
"Mas, are you conscious?!"Aisyah with her worried face looked at Arshad who looked hard to open her eyes.
"Mas, you heard me, right?"once again Aisyah asked, Aisyah saw Arshad increasingly trying to open her eyes. And when Arshad's eyes were completely opened, Aisyah was astonished to see the way Arshad looked at her.
"Aisha?.." said Arshad barely.
"Yes, it's me. How are you doing mas? been mending? still dizzy? or aches? you heard me, right?"Arshad just continued to stare at Aisyah without any intention of answering. He thinks it still can't be digested by his brain.
"You really are Aisyah?"
Aisyah still nodded despite still not understanding, "yes, mas. Its me. Why?"
Sontak Arshad immediately sat down and pulled Aisyah into his arms. What a happy thing for him. Finally his wife returned. Aisyah.
"Why is it now?"tanya Arshad sounded sad.
Aisyah who was still not used to being treated like that, was still trying to neutralize her heartbeat. Why did Arshad suddenly embrace her? ask in the heart.
"Don't go anywhere else! I beg!"pinta Arshad made Aisyah hesitantly return Arshad's embrace and pat Arshad's back gently to calm him down.
He doesn't know what exactly happened. What he realized now was that Arshad was very weak right now. She was really concerned about her husband's situation.
"What the hell are you, mas? why did you get to kayak gini? what have you been through while I'm not around?"ask Aisyah who can only be limited in the heart.
