This love story began when Haikal and Diah first met during college orientation in 2015. Haikal was instantly smitten from the get-go—he fell in love at first sight. But he never mustered up the courage to approach Diah because he was shy and did not have even the courage to start a conversation.

A few months later, Haikal mustered the courage to ask for Diah’s phone number from a mutual friend. Diah had then just moved to the capital city and was open to making new friends. She responded kindly to the message.

They began exchanging experiences and spent much time on campus with their crew. They gradually lost touch in early 2016, however, due to their busy study schedules and personal commitments.

It was not until mid-2016 that Haikal re-reached out to Diah. Ever since then, they were the best of friends for years and years. In 2024, they were even closer to one another, and Haikal started thinking about having a serious future with Diah. He made it known by telling her how he wanted to marry her and began discussing it with her family.

Now, in 2025, everything they ever envisioned and planned for is finally coming true—they are getting married. May this be the beginning of a beautiful and blessed new life for them. Amen.
