Only I Love

"Daaah Baim, Ama and Syifa go home first ..."

A few days later, Salma waved her hand to Baim. However, Baim only bowed his head putting on his gloomy face.

Since that meeting, Syauqi rented a contract house not far from the Syauqi family home. This is expected, so that Salma can be closer to Baim. However, the boy turned out to reject the presence of Salma, but wanted to play with Syifa, Salma's little daughter who always exposed him.

Salma was saddened to see Baim's reaction who was still reluctant to accept his presence. Even though he tried hard to change and repair the relationship with Baim, there still seemed to be a deep wound in the boy's heart.

Syauqi, who was also aware of Baim's feelings, tried to handle this situation wisely. He invites Baim to speak softly and understand his feelings.

"Baim, Ama and Syifa are your families, from now on. We have to respect each other and create a good relationship between us" Syauqi said softly.

Baim looked at his father with his innocent face. "But Bi, Baim was still sad to remember Ama's attitude at that time. Baim fears Ama will repeat her bad treatment again."

Syauqi understood Baim's fears and worries. He wanted to make sure that Salma's presence would not hurt Baim again. "Baim, Ama is working hard to ensure that Salma is completely changed and will not repeat the mistakes of the past. Let's give Ama a second chance and see how our relationship develops."

Baim nodded hesitantly, but he also saw his father's sincere desire to try to rectify the situation. He felt there was hope for a better future.

The next day, Syauqi takes Baim to an orphanage, which is where he has been lately to share. Like biass, Syauqi worked as a religious preacher.

There, so crowded and the spirit of the children of the orphanage said that the coming of the holy month of Ramadan. Then, he suddenly saw Humaira, who looked very young.

"No, he's not Humaira" he murmured. "But, it's Aulia, Humaira's sister."

Aulia is seen smiling thinly at him and nodding her head for permission to pass by. Syauqi did not decide his gaze to the girl who had just earned her college degree.

Aulia heard her name call and turned around. He was surprised to see Syauqi there. After several years of not seeing each other, they approached each other with smiles.

"Da Uqi turned out, how's Uda doing?" asked Aulia warmly.

"Alright, Alhamdulillah. How are you, Aulia?" syauqi replied with a smile. He felt an aura that was exactly the same as Humaira, while talking to Aulia.

Aulia explained that after graduating from college, she started working as a volunteer at this orphanage. She is happy to be able to provide help and support to children in need.

Syauqi was intrigued by Aulia's dedication and asked more about her work. They both engage in warm conversations, recall old memories and share stories about each other's life journey.

Meanwhile, Baim also looked at Aulia and felt curious. He approached and joined in their conversation. Aulia greeted him with a warm smile and Baim felt comfortable nearby.

At the same time, Salma who was looking at the meeting from a distance, felt uneasy. He decided to approach them with an open and hopeful heart.

"Dek Aulia huh? Assalamualaikum," said Salma familiarly, taking a position next to Syauqi.

Aulia smiled and greeted Salma. "Yes, Uni? Sorry huh? Maybe a little forgot. Whose union is it?"

Syauqi looked at their conversation with hope in his eyes. He hopes that this meeting could be the first step to mending the relationship between them.

Time passed and Baim, Syauqi, and Aulia increasingly met and interacted. Baim finally felt comfortable with Aulia's presence because Aulia was really treating him gently.

"Abi, will Abi marry Aulia's aunt, huh? Baim wants to have Ummi like him."
