The End Of Nothing

If there is a place that's only you know.A place for you to find your peace.

Population:you.Then,where could that place be?

Step by step,slowly walking along the pathway.Pathway of nothing.Nothing's around.No one's in sight.It has been a month since this place being discovered.Every once in a while,there will always be someone visits this place.Only by one person,Michael.
Michael has loved this place since the moment he breathes in it's air.He's a writer.He mostly writes about his daily routines,but never has he told about his discovery.There's something about this place amazes him.There's something about it's silence makes him speechless.A very simple garden,without any decorations.Just the natural beauty of peace.Without a single touch from man.He made an pledge.He swears to keep this place a secret so that it will always be only him,and it,forever.But not every will has their price.Yesterday,he discovers something else.Now,population of this unknown garden is 2.He don't know who.He didn't give a care.Nor is that person.They never speak to each other.Michael just keep his world to himself.Even though there is already someone else enters his secret garden.

Another month has passed.That person is still there,Micheal stills doesn't know who she is.What she does.All he knows that she comes here at least once a week,and Michael will visit here everyday.She seems different from other women though.Now he's curious.Maybe it's time to get to know the other secret garden guardian.But she seems shy.She seems as though she don't want to speak to Michael.Maybe because she's different.She's not like any other Christian.Who is she?
Michael starts to puzzles.

"Bismillah hirrahman nirrahim~"One day,Michael heard something he has never listens to in his entire life.
"It's...It's...What is it?"Micheal tries to think.Tries to remember.But it's just too bizarre for him.He can't take it anymore.He has to know.But why did he feels like this?Even Micheal doesn't know why,but he just do.
He ran to her.When he reaches her,he found out that the voice was coming from her.She's reading,something.She didn't realizes Michael's presence.She continues with her reading.
"Ehem.Excuse me".He made an introduction.
"Huh!"She terribly shocked!Her hands automatically closes her book.
"I'm sorry to disturbs you but what are you reading?"Her pale face slowly turns back to normal.
"Umm...I'm reading Quran".Micheal's head turns to blank.Kur...What?
"You wouldn't know.You're Christian right?"Umm...Michael just nodded.
"This is Muslim's holy book".She say it with a smile,proudly.Ohh...Micheal's head starts to function again.


The meter already shows 100km/h,but he stills pressing hard on the gas pedal.His mind is buzzing with words.Aida's voice is like whispering in his ears...

After half an hour talking about each religions,they finally greet each other.
"Umm...I'm Michael."
"Nice to meet you.I'm Aida".She said with a smile.
What a beautiful name.Michael thought.Everything about Aida amazes him.From the way she dressed,to the way she talks about Islam.


The last leave finally falls from the tree.It's going to be winter soon.After almost a year knowing each other,it's now time to split up.Aida will return back to Malaysia,since she finished her studies here.Michael will be going to Paris.He became the most successful writer in Australia.His book that made him famous was 'Muslims Are Not Terrorists'.He was inspired by the Palestine's story,told by Aida.Ever since they met,his heart and mind has been opened to Islam.Everyday,he becomes less interested to Christian,and someday,he will convert into Islam.Now,he feels as if he can't live without Aida anymore.
"Thank you,Aida.For everything."
"What's wrong with you?You've been thanking and apologizing to me everyday."
"I don't know.Maybe because everyday,i get to know about you more."Michael said,flat.
"Yeah.It was fun getting to know you."
"Don't forget to miss me."
"Of course.I promise to keep in touch with you.Thank you for changing my life."Aida smiled at Michael.
"Shouldn't that be my line?"
"Maybe.I don't know how can i live without you lah."
"Don't say that.Promise me one more thing?"
"What is it?Anything for you."
"Promise me that when we meet again,you are happy with Sayyid."
"I can't believe Sayyid and i will get married soon."Aida smiled to herself,happily.
"So,this is goodbye then,kid."It's almost time to Maghrib.
"Yup.Goodbye,bro."

THE END
