Dila goes home after going on a picnic with her 5 -year guy friend. their so in love everyone can tell but they wouldn't admit it. but adila knew she would marry him someday, but her parents doesn't know of him so well, but she'll tell them one day. Closing the door of her house she was shocked to see her parents in the living room with one guy and his mother. It was haris hadi, the guy she meet while studying at london.
***
happy 22 birthday adila izzati. here. he gives her a present. its wrapped in a blue cloth. she opens it. it is, a tafsir al-quran. shes speachless. it is also filled with doadoa mustajab and which occasions to read a surah at. so i hope it can answer some of your questions, says haris hadi. thanks.

happy 23rd birthday adila izzati. he gives her a present, it is in a box tied with a ribbon. but haris hadi asks her to open it when she gets home. and she does, it is a nice selendang, beautiful. the best part is it is the long type, so it will cover her chest. the card her wrote says "wanita tutupilah auratmu"
***
happy 24th birthday adila izzati. he brings out something from his bag. it looks like a wine bottle, wrapped with a gold cloth. she opens it. it is actually a large bottle of air zamzam and a packet of dates from Mecca. the card reads " do the best for your final semester, eat these to improve your memory, just like the prophet always did."
***
her memory flashed back. he was her sitting in her parents living room after 6 months without contact. he still looked the same. she actually wanted to intoduce him to her parents during her graduation but she couldn't find him. soo she taught he never thought of her again. everyone then stood up. adila's father says well we will keep in touch. thank you. adila salams haris's mother. they leave. she cannot meet haris's eyes. adila is confused. her parents say that he was here to ask her hand in marraige. they also say he now works at JAKIM, in Putrajaya.
To marry him? what? I mean he was just a person in my past. what about the guy i'm already with who i have so much fun with, what about zarith. i cannot leave him. she met zarith ever since doing her preping at intec to go overseas. they were the most fun and had so many things in common. of course he went to australia and she went to london, but the still liked each other.
as for haris hadi she met him, when in london at a hari raya celebration at Malaysia hall, london he was doing a degree in biotechnology. his secondary school was KISAS, so adila knew he was very wise in religious matters. adila herself was sometimes in doubt and would come to him and ask all sorts of questions. like why must we fast during ramadhan or related. adila loved to hear these stories. however not most malaygirls in london were close to him, they taught he was trying to get everyone to change, even her house mates asked her, don't you feel offened when he gave you a long shawl. i mean you already wear a shall, what is he trying to do?but adila just smiled.
---------------------------
she had to put things straight, she googled his name and found his work adress, she went there on thursday to see him. he was suprised to see her at his office door. she wanted to tell him the truth and say sorry, because she was going to marry zarith not him. in his office she sat down. however he said they could not talk properly here, as people would truly talk about him so he told her to meet her at this arabic resturant doen the street from his office at 12.30. there was still an hour before that so he adviced her to walk around and see thing. she didi that. she was caught up listening to a tazkirah that she realised that it was already 12.45. she hurried toward the elevator.
arriving in front of the resturant she was panting and appologised repeatedly. but again haris hadi, smiled at her actions and invited her in. they ate arabic rice with lamb and drank arab tea, it was superb. during the whole time he refused to talk about his recent visit and talked more abou catching up like where do you work know, how are you siblings, and such. before leaving the resturant he did say, adila ever since i met you in london i liked you. you were this happy go lucky girl and funny but you also were very attentive to your religon. i think you have taken my heart. Adila spoke, but you weren't there on graduation its been 6 months before you contacted me. I know says haris hadi. i was afraid to find you. he stops and pays for the lunch they step out.
She was goinmg to the lrt station after this to go home, but before leaving she asked him,
So should urm i take your number? i mean it would be easy to you know talk or whatever.
oh i dont think thats a good idea adila izzati, its nothing it's me, i.i. i'm AFRAID .
afraid of what?
Afraid of everything. especially ALLAH swt , I am afraid of doing something wrong, because of my strong feelings for you. I love you so much but i still have fear of myself and god's revenge to those who do bad to him. for he knows all. I think you know how much i love you. However i truly don't know how you feel for me, but trust me when someone is in love they would want to spend all there time with that person. If you know at this very moment i wouldn't want you to leave me. i'd even like to skip work for the rest of today and spend time with you at the beach or anywhwere else romantic but i can't. i have responsibilities to my empolyers and ALLAH swt. I would love to give you my number or take pictures together so we can call each other or sms one another but again adila izzati , i can't.. Infact i would love to send you to the lrt station in my car. Again it is another no, as we don't have anything legit between us.so take this car with sajeeda to the lrt station, she is a friend of mine and will send you there. and adila when you finally have your answer to my questions a few days ago please contact my mother, she 'll know what to do. asslamualaikum.
