The sun is not showing its light, nor the chirping of birds who refuse to show off its beautiful voice, the morning that cools the heart, accompanied by rain stubs that refuse to stop.


At the end of this rain hit the city of Bandung, indeed according to weather forecasts from September to approximately 5 months in the future will enter the rainy season, so no wonder if the rain falls in every morning.


Same thing on Saturday morning, the rain that does not stop since two in the morning, which may be for some people this morning weather is perfect for sleeping again, especially in a transition period like Shahla, the period after completing his High School education to a period that will begin his real life.


Now Syahla has completed his education MA (Madrasah Aliyah) actually his parents want to enter Syahla to the boarding school, but because of the cost of his parents also include Syahla to Madrasah Aliyah, but because of the cost of his parents also include Syahla to the Madrasah Aliyah, at least in the Aliyah madrasah prefer Religious Science than other public schools.


06.00


This Saturday morning the rain is still flushing, moments like this are used by Mr. Nadim, Miss Halimah and Shahla to gather together just to talk, in a warm tea that is ready to be enjoyed.


"Dad, Mother, pray for Shahla yes, this morning the announcement of the results of SBMPTN will be opened soon" Syahla said


"Son, without you asking, Father and Mother always pray for the best for you, whatever the result you will have to accept with sincere, son." Replied Mr. Nadim while stroking his son's head


"Syahla, as time goes by you will grow up, someday you will be faced with various tests, remember the message of mother yes son, face all of that with sincerity, face all of that, be patient and grateful in every destiny that God gives." said Ms. Halimah with a sweet smile


"And you need to remember also son, no one can change Destiny except Allah, Destiny belongs to Allah, then our duty is only to rely on Him and ask for protection from HIM" said Mr. Nadim


"Thank you Father, Mother, your advice will be remembered Syahla until anytime, pray Syahla may Syahla be strong to live it." said Syahla then scattered in the arms of both


This morning the announcement of the results of SBMPTN will be opened soon, because of the limited cost of Syahla following the bidikmisi scholarship program, and the scholarship program can be followed 2 times only, the opportunity only, if this year fails then there is 1 more chance to follow it next year.


Syahla's mind is very high, he wants to become a Lecturer, he wants to change the life of his parents, all this time his parents are the motivation of his life, he wants to be a Lecturer, the reason Syahla chose the bidikmisi line was because he understood the situation of his parents and he did not want to trouble his parents.


At exactly 07.00 am the announcement of the results of SBMPTN has been opened.


Syahla sighed, then she typed her ID and password to open an account on the PTN site to find out the results.


He sighed again and closed his eyes before pressing the enter button.


"Bismillah" he said, then he opened his eyes slowly


"Dad, Mother, Shahla is not welcome." look Syahla in the eyes of the mobile phone he holds


"Qodarulloh son, who is patient yes, maybe this is not your sustenance" said Halimah as she rubbed her son's back


"Yes to be patient, InsyaAlloh there are 1 more chance next year, do not give up dong, the father's son of that time" said Mr. Nadim while rubbing his son's head


"Yes Father, Mother, sincere Shahla, pray for Shahla in every step that Shahla takes." Syahla replied with glass eyes


"Do'a we're always with you, son."


"Thank you for everything, Mom." Shahla replied then splashed in the arms of both


"Dad, Mom, Shahla go to the room first."


In fact they did not have the heart to see the only child sad, there was nothing they could do except pray for the best for him.


...* * *...


Syahla sat pensively staring at the window of her room, watching the rain that kept fluttering, now the only hope she had fought for paid off already, she said, he did not think that he was not accepted at the University that he had long aspired to.


Ringing incoming calls resuscitated his daydream, Syahla immediately took his mobile phone on the nightstand.


"Wa'alaikumussalam Ana."


"Dear, Thank God I accepted, how did you get the result?"


"MaaSyaaAlloh Alhamdulillah Ana, I am happy. Qodarulloh I don't accept Ana."


"Serious Shah? you must be lying?"


"i didn't lie to Ana."


"O Allah, it is better that I am not accepted."


"It can't be ah ga good, it's been part of my destiny, whatever the outcome I have to accept."


"I'm sorry Shah...


Shah, you used to say, if you don't pass SBMPTN you won't go to college ?"


"This is how Ana, I understand the situation of my parents, I don't want to bother them, yesterday I joined SBMPTN through the bidikmisi scholarship, even if the regular route seems unable to Na."


"I understand you Shah, you must be enthusiastic, I always pray for you my friend."


"Aamiin Ya Alloh, thank you Ana, I am grateful to have a friend like you, hopefully Allah brings us not only in the world but also to JannahNYA."


"Aamiin Ya Alloh Ya Robbal'alamiin, same friend of my file, Shah tomorrow at 07:00 we leave ya ya."


"Yes Ana, I'll wait at home tomorrow."


"Yeah, yes, Assalamu'alaikum."


"Wa'alaikumussalam."


Syahla put her phone back on the nightstand.


"Yaa Robb why it hurts so much why should I not be accepted, if indeed I am destined not to go to college." Syahla said after hearing the statement of her best friend.


"Astagfirulloh, should not I be like this, pardon servant Ya Robb, I know this has become your provision." Inner Shahla again denied that what she had done was wrong.


Kirana Ayu Lestari, Syahla always called her Ana, Ana is a friend of Syahla since sitting in high school until now. Syahla and Ana aspire to enter the same state college, even they want to continue together not only in the world but also to Jannah.


Ana and her family are very good to Syahla, Ana was born from a family is, Ana is the 4th child (youngest child), currently her father holds a company, her father holds a company, while his uncle (his father's sister) runs a boarding school, all assets are not their own, but belong to their father and mother (the grandfather of Ana's grandmother) who has been passed on to his father and uncle.


Although they are given an excess of property, but the humble nature is always inherent in them, for them the treasure is just a deposit and for them the degree of human in the eyes of God is the same, and indeed what distinguishes it is one's faith and piety to the Allaah SWT.


..."Wealth is not measured by many possessions, but true wealth is the wealth of the heart."...
