Sweetness of my soul
Matchmaking

Six years have passed since Aulia left her hometown, Kyai Abas and Umi Tinah looking for other activities outside the house.

Indeed, the main activity of Kyai Abas is to take care of his ponpes, in addition to his owner as a teacher there.

Unlike Umi Tinah, whose main activities are only at home taking care of the household, but since Aulia's departure all felt different, it felt lonely.

Kyai Abas could not bear to see Umi Tinah who often looked gloomy, she persuaded Umi Tinah to join with her to take care of the ponpes, although not always in "Yes "would be her husband's invitation.

That morning seemed different, besides the air was so cold and indeed the state of Kyai Abas was not healthy so he decided to rest at home.

She was in her room alone, while Umi Tinah was in the kitchen making traditional herbs from natural spices she took from the pharmacy living in the garden behind her house.

A greeting was heard from the front of the house "Asalamu'alaikum.... "

Umi Tinah turned her head for a while, then stopped her activities and rushed towards her front door while answering the greeting "Wa'alaikumssalam.... "

The door opens, "O Nak Arsha apparently, let's please enter " Umi Tinah said after knowing who the guest who said the greeting earlier.

Umi Tinah smiled happily, how not Arsha is one of Kyai Abas' favorite students who is very potential, he said, in addition to the beautiful also authoritative even Arsha has been asked to become a teacher in the ponpes belonging to Kyai Abas in recent years, although he was only seventeen years old but his intelligence cannot be underestimated.

" There's a wind, has this Sepagi visited here? " Task Umi Tinah, Arsha smiled

" Yes Umi, I came here to ask Kyai Abas because it has been three days that there is no presence in the ponpes "Asha replied still at the door.

" Owh yes please enter Nak "The command of Umi Tinah invites Arsha to enter, Arsha follows him from behind.

" Abi was in the room, coincidentally for three days Abi was not feeling well so Abi decided not to visit the ponpes first, but thank God his condition has now started to improve " Umi Tinah explained as she walked towards the living room which was still followed by Arsha.

" Sit Nak Arsha "Pinta Umi Tinah on Arsha while pointing at the sofa in her living room.

" Oh yes Umi, thank you "Answer Arsha, be polite while sitting.

" A minute Umi to the kitchen first "Umi Tinah Permit.

" Yes Umi please "Arsha invites Umi Tinah to leave him.

Not long after Umi Tinah returned to the living room to meet Arsha while carrying two glasses of warm tea water and traditional herbs that she boiled earlier.

" Please drink Nak "Umi Tinah please, Arsha smiled and looked at the glass that Umi Tinah put on the table right in front of her.

Umi Tinah understood what Arsha was thinking, "Be calm, son, Umi gave you two glasses so you can choose which drink you want to drink " Umi Tinah said to break Arsha's mind.

" One is warm sweet tea water, the other is a traditional herb that Umi makes to maintain body health, the weather lately is not friendly "Lang Umi Tinah, Umi, Arsha was still stunned to hear Umi Tinah's explanation and turned her gaze back to the glass in front of her.

" Abi had also drunk it, before I came back to see you first I met Abi in the room to give this potion "Umi Tinah continued her explanation earlier,

Arsha turned her gaze from the glass towards Umi Tinah then onto the glass again.

" Drink while warm "Please persuade Umi Tinah to smile

" Thank you Umi... " Asha said while choosing herbs made from traditional herbs, Umi Tinah looked at Arsha lovingly like Mother to Her Son.

Umi Tinah who was sitting opposite Arsha was unceasingly smiling at Arsha's facial expression while drinking her choice of drink.

" How's Arsha? " Tanya Umi Tinah shortly after Arsha drank the potion.

Arsha's face looked so cute, her white face looked reddish, her greenish-brown eyes looked a little watery.

" It feels strange Umi "Arsha tried to explain, after her throat has returned to normal, Umi Tinah laughed a little.

" Didn't you know beforehand that the potion wasn't as sweet as warm sweet tea? " Tanya Umi Tinah mocked still with her small laugh, Arsha laughs at herself.

" Yes Umi, I already know, it's just that I deliberately chose it because I knew by drinking this herb it would be more beneficial to my body than sweet tea water " explained Arsha.

Umi Tinah was silent for a moment, "Such in the analogy that is in the mind of this child "Murm in the heart.

" Go to the room, Abi is waiting for you " Umi Tinah said while standing and walking carrying Arsha to the front of the room, Arsha followed him from behind.

" Abi.... " Tap Umi Tinah.

" Yes Mi, just go in... " Kyai Abas from the inside.

" Let's Son Arsha, Umi back to the kitchen yes "Umi Tinah's orders.

" Yes Umi thank you " said Arsha.

" Assalamu'alaikum's.... " Arsha entered the room where Kyai Abas slept.

" Wa'alaikums.... Come in Arsha." Kyai Abas replied, then turned to Arsha.

" Arsha, you've come" said Kyai Abas, he began to wake up and sit on a pillow placed against the wall.

" Yes Kyai, Kyai how is he? " Task Arsha while sitting next to the bed where Kyai is sitting.

" Thank God has improved "A brief Kyai Abas replied with a fluffy smile.

" Kyai, Kyai Abas has not taught for three days nor visited the ponpes, which is why I came to find out what happened to the "Light of Arsha.

Kyai Abas winked weakly, "Yes I am not feeling well, but gradually recovered.

" Thank you for visiting me, Arsha "Next while patting Arsha's arm, Arsha took a seat right on the right side of Kyai Abas' bed.

" Oh, Arsha, yesterday your father and mother called me sorry if I couldn't tell you yesterday because I wasn't doing well" Kyai Abas said.

" It's okay Kyai "Arsha chimed lightly.

" It seems you're not very excited, what's up Arsha? " Kyai looked at Arsha curiously.

" Kyai know why I'm like this "Arsha refused to look at Kyai Abas who smiled at Arsha's attitude.

" Yes I know, your father told me a lot including about you who always refused the match" Kyai Abas said

" Why do you refuse to be married? " Tanya Kyai Abas seriously continued his words earlier, Arsha just fell silent and bowed.

" Hmmm yaya it is difficult to start something if not ready, but is not it sometimes to start do not have to wait ready? " Kyai Abas asked back still looking at Arsha deeply.

" Kyai from my heart I don't want to, if asked for any reason I don't know "Arsha started to explain.

" Isn't it because you don't love your Mom's choice? " Back Kyai Abas tries to investigate

" Maybe, I don't know if I've never met the woman you're nominating, I'm reluctant to discuss it anyway if you've been calling always the matchmaking that was discussed "Absaid Arsha Cuek, who said, Kyai Abas just smiled and patted Arsha on the shoulder again sitting on the bench next to him.

" Then talk back to your Dad well, son, don't make your Dad and Mom think no-no, reveal what's in your heart, say it. It's just my pants " Kyai Abas thrust his cell at Arsha.

Arsha receives Kyai Abas' cell, starts turning on the cell that doesn't use the password.

Looking at a photo on the main screen wallpaper, Arsha looked at it full of amazement.

" Mash Allah.... Beautiful "Praise Arsha in the heart.

A beautiful photo of a woman wearing black, very beautiful and well-mannered gowns and hijabs in very Islamic clothes, without makeup polish is really a natural beauty that radiates from the heart.

Kyai Abas noticed Arsha's silent attitude looking at her cellular, "Not looking at the screen yet

too long, your vision will hurt... " Goda Kyai Abas who made Arsha wrong.

" Who is this Kyai? " Arsha asked Kyai Abas while showing her cellular wallpaper, as usual Kyai Abas smiled at Arsha's behavior.

" She's my youngest daughter, why? " Answer Kyai Abas casually

" I've never seen Kyai? " Arsha glares at Kyai Abas, while Kyai Abas who was always smiling now turns a little grim.

" He's not here, my daughter's been living in Jakarta for the past six years "Kyai Abas started telling stories with a bright look, Arsha listened carefully.

" Why did he go Kyai? " Arsha asked again curiously, Kyai Abas glanced at him and confirmed his sitting position.

" Why do you want to know? " Kyai Abas seduces Arsha while raising his eyebrows, Arsha being treated as such becomes a misbehavior.

" Yes, my daughter wants to pursue her goals after graduating from college "Kyai Abas continues the story.

" She's a very devoted daughter, she I can count on to be able to carry on this ponpes foundation "Lesu Kyai Abas told me

" He's so smart that's why he got a scholarship, he got along easily, while still in college he's also independent and has his own business " Kyai Abas eyes began to tear up his voice a little hoarse, Arsha stunned to listen to the story of Kyai Abas.

" But unfortunately his cheerfulness was taken away, he had to leave with a wound in his heart "Kyai Abas bowed, Arsha got up and began to calm down.

" Anged how does it mean Kyai? What wounds are in his heart? " Arya wondered in her heart.

" Since my daughter was abandoned by Husayn, without cause and reason, not even an apology was spoken from Husayn or his family "Kyai Abas still continued his speech even though a little faltered.

" Husain who is Kyai? " Arsha dared to ask.

" Husain was the one who had come to see me with his family to ask my daughter to be his life companion but he just left after I had approved of their relationship "Kyai Abas began to be able to regulate his emotions.

" When in fact Husain was a good person "Kyai Abas was already able to calm down.

" Why is he acting like that? " Ary asked without hesitation.

" He was used by other women, even they did things forbidden by Allah "Kyai Abas explained.

" Athaghfirullahal.... " Arsha was a little surprised.

" I have tried to cure her, but she always adds to her use when Husain is awakened and worse my daughter's safety is threatened, she begins to attack my daughter subtly " Kyai Abas took a deep breath.

" Thank God my daughter was strong she only hurt for a moment, but the pain in her heart still could not be healed "Kyai Abas looked at Arsha.

" Did Kyai's daughter know she was being cheated? " Task Arsha.

" I don't think so, he doesn't believe in that kind of thing" Kyai replied briefly

" I therefore wish to tell you Arsha to be closer to Allah, your faith and your Islam "Kyai Abas tells Arsha, Arsha listens carefully.

" You are a good and beautiful person, you are very coveted by most women out there, so take care of your attitude, keep your limits" Kyai Abas added.

Arsha nodded her eyes at Kyai Abas indicating that she was determined to fulfill her Master's message.

" Come call your parents immediately "Kyai Abas reminds Arsha to call her parents

" Good Kyai.... " Arsha grabbed Kyai Abas' cell, and asked for permission to go out for a while so she could freely talk to her parents.

Umi Tinah came to bring food "Thank you Umi, it looks like my condition is very good do I still need to drink the herbal medicine? " Task Kyai Abas while receiving a plate containing food and putting it on his lap.

" Let Umi help feed the food, Abi "Umi Tinah took back the plate and began to feed the food to Kyai.

" Of course Abi still have to drink the herbal medicine, if necessary when Abi later was healthy always routinely drink it "Umi Tinah answered the question that Kyai Abas had said earlier.

" Well, if Abi's wife asks Abi what? " Goda Kyai Abas to his wife, Umi Tinah.

Kyai Abas and Umi Tinah joke while feeding food, unknowingly Arsha has returned and witnessed their harmony.

" Thank God... Glad to be able to witness Kyai's harmony, hopefully it can be an example for me later if I have a family "Asha said surprised Kyai Abas and Umi Tinah.

" This son of Arsha you know, a child has talked about family only "Umi Tinah chimed while slightly mocked Arsha, Arsha walked up to them.

" Umi does not know yet if Arsha wants to be betrothed by his Mother's Father? " Kyai Abas interrupted, Umi frowned.

" Abi really??? " Tanya Umi Tinah does not believe.

" Yes of course, but Arsha refused, right Arsha? " Kyai Abas threw a question at Arsha who had just smiled when he was on the ledek.

" No Kyai, now I want to be betrothed but not by the choice of Father and Mother but by my own choice" said Arsha steady, his eyes shining.

Kyai was puzzled at heart, "Why did Arsha change her mind so quickly? Didn't he say that he wasn't ready? "
