Have you not seen those who claim themselves to be pure? Rather, Allah purifies whom He wills, and injustice is not done to them, [even] as much as a thread [inside a date seed].

Kamzan got out from his bedroom to buy and cook food for them but Mayca was already in the kitchen preparing the food.
He looked at the table,as if it was like a problem solving that needed to be calculated
"did I prepare too much?"Mayca asked
"well,it's fine,at least now it has different kinds.."Kamzan said while recalling those times where Mayca just kept on cooking the beef tapa because it was his favorite
"and you told me that you would look like a cow if you continue on eating my one and only recipe"
"Those were my struggle times"Kamzan joked and they both laughed.Yerein just stood behind the wall.She didn't make known her presence yet because the two seemed engrossed in reminiscing their past.
They were cousins but they were like friends and lovers. Yerein contemplated if she would enter or she would return back to the guest room.While she was battling with herself she heard that they opened another topic again and this time she heard her name.
"You never scolded me before every time I say this to your women,but why did it become a big deal now?"
"I don't want Yerein to misinterpret us"so for just few moments they already discussed many topics in fact she didn't hear how they opened their discussion about her
"I am having fun saying that fiancé thing,"Mayca answered while tasting her last recipe.
"you are not a child anymore"
"so why you can't marry me?you are just one year older than me" Mayca said in a childish way,she looked at him with sparks in her eyes hoping that her cuteness could change his answer.
"same topic all those years"Kamzan spoke with tiredness in his voice.They had been discussing this topic since the jurassic era.They reached the medieval age,the homosapien stage but Mayca was still on the old topic. Now he could finally say that moving on was not in Mayca's book.
"I just wanted to know why you don't want to marry me" Her she went again trying to press her wound again. She was like a masochist,she knew the answer but still for the sake of false hope she kept on asking the question that might hurt her.
"auntie already explained it to you"Kamzan was a kind of man who hated repeating and explaining complicated things.
"I want to hear it from you,"Mayca insisted again. Yerein wanted to know the answer too but she was guilty of eavesdropping so when she heard enough she went back to the guest room
"you are a sister to me and I don't want to change that and your mother was my milk mother,the one who nursed me so we are like siblings,our marriage will become null and void,because our relationship can be considered incest,did I explained it right?"Kamzan said while standing up planning to call Yerein for lunch
"as usual well explained"
💛💛💛
After they ate, Kamzan immediately excused himself because he received an important call.
Yerein stayed on the kitchen to help Mayca.While Yerein putting the cup in the cupboard Mayca spoke"My Kamzan never brought a woman in this vacation house"
Yerein was froze,she didn't know how to answer Mayca"if she brought you here,it could mean something"Mayca continued since Yerein didn't reply
"it's not what you think Mayca"Yerein carefully said those words.They were not here for a vacation,they were here for an escape
"when he was young,you know during high school he already studied Islam diligently but of course when you are young your faith is still shaky,he dated many girls too,sometimes he succumbed to temptation,but when his parents died and when he enrolled to the university,his faith becomes a rock,a big rock that planted to the soil,something that couldn't be moved no matter what"
They had finished cleaning the kitchen but they continued to talk while both standing neared to the marble sink.
"from the day I saw him,I could feel that he is a religious man"she just felt it ,Yerein concluded that Kamzan was a good Muslim because she felt it.He never interrogated her on prayer time,he always interrogated her after asr(3 of 5 times prayer) or after isha(5 of 5 times prayer)
"aha,but he never advertised his religious side because in this country most of the people are atheist,so in his camp he was the only Muslim but he was the boss there"Mayca didn't mean to brag when she said those words but she just couldn't help it every time she talked about his achievements,she was his number one fan
"you really know his story"Yerein was overwhelmed to know Kamzan's past but also couldn't help but feel hurt for knowing nothing about her protector
"because I love him,but he is my almost brother,so what I felt is forbidden love"Mayca confessed to Yerein to lessen the pain she felt.She knew her feelings should not be validated because like what Kamzan said it was null and void from the start
"Mayca,you can still love him,as a big brother,a sibling love has the same value with romantic love.While the latter bound by love and destiny,the former bound by blood and love"
Mayca looked at Yerein,her look was like roaming on Yerein's mind,she took the entrance using Yerein's eyes.Kamzan told her that he believed in love after marriage,that's the reason Kamzan was still single at the age of 32"you know what he told me? he wanted to love a pious muslimah,I thought what he was looking for was an impossible love"
Mayca thought that Kamzan would not find his ideal woman,especially in the modern era where almost all the women became slave of social media.She doubted if there was still one muslimah that never surrendered to the glitters of the world.
"how could that be impossible?there are still lot of Muslimah in this world"Yerein trying to give light to Mayca's hopeless perception
"yeah but he was looking for a pious one,those pious women was locking themselves in the room while studying the holy book and while praying,they are not one of those women who advertised their beauty in social media,so they are hard to find because they are hiding"Mayca knew that Yerein would agree to her opinion because based from her attentiveness with the topic she seemed knowledgeable of what Kamzan's like
"I agree with you"Yerein finally laid down her thoughts
"actually I just want you to validate my words,because you are one of them,I mean you are the one that I called impossible to find"
Yerein was shocked to hear those words.She carelessly dropped the rug that she was holding in her hand."I think it was already late,goodnight Mayca"
For Yerein Mayca was wrong.She was not that great, like everyone she sinned too. Though she was walking toward to the path of greatness there was still time that she committed a sin.She couldn't declare herself as innocent and pure because only Allah knew who she was
"Just call me Maycs,Yers"Mayca said while smiling to Yerein,she looked back again to Mayca"okay Maycs"
Mayca proceeded to her room, that night she accepted that someone defeated her.It was the first time she was beaten by the woman of Kamzan.She promised to herself that Kamzan would stay forever single because what he wanted was an impossible love but Yerein made Kamzan's dreams into existence.
