Sweetness of my soul
Aulia's Message
In the dining room of Kyai Abas, Umi Tinah and Aulia ate the food that Aulia brought earlier.
Asem-asem is a typical food of Demak which is a favorite food for Kyai Abas.
Once Kyai Abas devoured his food as well as Umi Tinah, Aulia unceasingly gave thanks.
" Abi tastes asem-asem this time is much more delicious than the last "Puji Kyai Abas.
" Abi could have, this Aulia bought at the subscription place where it feels the same as "Aulia chimed in.
" Abi may be hungry once because of her ill appetite "Aulia added.
" Add more Abi Umi... " Aulia offers.
Kyai Abas offered his plate a sign that he was asking to add his food.
The plate was welcomed by Umi Tinah, "Here is enough Bi? " Ask Kyai Abas.
" Yes enough "His hand received back the plate from Umi Tinah.
" Eat a lot Abi will quickly recover" said Aulia while bribing her food.
" Of course....! " Kyai Abas Kelakar, Umi Tinah smiled.
" It's so good, Bi? " Umi Tinah asked.
" Oh, that's very clear Umi" replied Kyai Abas.
" Thank God .... " Samely Umi and Aulia replied to Kyai Abas, they looked at each other and laughed a little.
" Well, how Alhamdulillah? " Task Kyai Abas again.
" That means Abi is healed" answered Aulia with shining eyes.
" Yes Abi was healed because Aulia came "Timpal Umi Tinah.
" The cure is in Aulia "Umi Tinah looked at Aulia deeply.
Aulia did not reply to Umi Tinah's words, she continued to eat until it ran out.
" Thank God.... " Kyai Abas said after finishing his meal, melting the atmosphere.
Umi Tinah helped Aulia clean the dining table, after finishing they sat back on the dining table chair.
By enjoying the warm tea the three of them, Kyai Abas, Umi Tinah and Aulia chatted.
" Abi is so glad you came home Nduk "Kyai Abas looked at her daughter, Aulia.
" Nduk, it feels like we have not eaten together like this, Abi really misses things like that "Kyai Abas continued, Aulia noticed Kyai Abas.
" Umi too.... " Umi Tinah followed the sound, Aulia looked at Uminya who was sitting in the chair next to her.
" You went too long Nduk until you probably forgot your way home" said Umi Tinah.
Aulia was speechless and slightly held tightness in her chest, her mind glaring somewhere.
Again the shadow of Husain came to him, the pain that once existed now felt back.
Aulia tried to cover it up in front of Umi and Abinya who had been watching her, Aulia realized that she should still look fine in front of her parents.
Aulia looked back at Umi Tinah and Kyai Abas, then smiled as she said "Pardon Aulia, Aulia just wants to pursue Aulia's ideals ".
Whether it was the honest answer or not, what was certain was that Aulia still could not forget her pain towards Husain, even every corner of Demak city could recall the memories of Aulia with Husain.
That is the main reason why Aulia prefers to leave her hometown rather than keep remembering memories that make the lights never heal.
" Would you let the masses keep showing you Nduk? " Task Umi Tinah.
Aulia was surprised to hear Umi Tinah's question, "I don't know Umi "Aulia can only answer in her heart.
" Nduk, Abi believed that God's part was being worked on "Kyai Abas smiled.
Aulia instead looked at Kyai Abas face, then shifted her gaze.
" Yes right, I as a human being can only do my part, which is to pray and try "Aulia said in her heart.
Aulia took a breath and her mind returned.
" Abi took medicine first yes "Aulia reminded, as well as she tried to divert the conversation.
" No, Abi never took the drug kok Nduk " Abi said.
" Abi was drinking herbs made by our doctor, Umi mu" Kyai Abas said in a teasing tone to his wife.
Umi smiled shyly, Aulia chuckled at the height of her two parents.
" But in fact Abi is healed just still limp a little "Kyai Abas gives an explanation.
" And after Aulia came Abi so fresh fit "Umi Tinah excited, Umi Tinah smiled.
" Abi's been drinking jamu again? " Aulia asked Kyai Abas.
" It was this morning before you came" replied Kyai Abas.
" Abi think Abi will go to the boarding school "Kyai Abas continues.
Aulia and Umi Tinah compactly looked at Kyai Abas, their views were like a prohibiting code and Kyai Abas could interpret their views.
" Lho why? Abi was healed, had recovered, was fit "Abi moved his body to convince Aulia and Umi Tinah that he was right" has recovered.
" No Abi! " Said Aulia firmly, Kyai Abas astonished.
" Abi can not go to the boarding house "Prohibit Aulia, Umi Tinah is silent.
" But Nduk, Abi has not been there for 4 days, Abi just wants to see the situation and problems that must be resolved "Abi is trying to explain.
" What problem? " Aulia asked, Abi just fell silent.
" What's the problem, Bi? Can't it be represented? " Tanya Aulia wanted to know.
" I can, I can !!! " Kyai Abas replied excitedly.
" Aulia wants to represent Abi running a boarding school? " Tanya Kyai Abas.
" What about Aulia Bi? " Aulia turned around asking her brows furrowed.
" Who else could Abi count on if not his own son "Umi Tinah joined the sound.
" Yes, because you're the only one Abi can expect Nduk "The look in Kyai Abas's eyes is a little clear.
" No Bi, Aulia will only take care of the boarding school if Aulia is married "Remember Aulia.
" When did you get married? " Tanya Kyai Abas.
Aulia misbehaved at Kyai Abas's question, Umi Tinah calmed Aulia down by stroking Aulia's shoulder.
" Aulia did not want to take care of the boarding school before Aulia got married and Abi could not go to the boarding school today "Aulia insisted on forbidding.
" If Abi is still reckless, Aulia will leave today to Jakarta! " Equently Aulia was a little threatening.
Kyai Abas shook his head but still smiled, as well as Umi Tinah who held back laughter.
" Umi, look at your son he forbade me to leave but he does not want to represent, then what is the fate of our boarding school? " Tanya Kyai Abas slightly teased Aulia.
" Abi has a confidant right there? Just have that person represent Abi for a few days "Aulia gives advice.
Kyai Abas and Umi Tinah look at each other.
" who? " Kyai Abas asked as he brought himself closer to Aulia.
" Anyone, just don't Faizal! " Aulia firmly replied.
Kyai Abas and Umi Tinah looked at each other again.
" Aulia did not want Faizal to help Abi take care of the boarding school in person "Aulia reiterated.
" Nduk, Faizal once helped Abi when he wanted to release you from the attack of his lover Husain "Kyai Abas trying to remind Aulia services.
Aulia looked towards her Abinya, with a flat-eyed look Aulia said, "Yes, she helped but because she had other intentions "
" sthat mean? " Umi Tinah asked.
" Abi and Umi definitely understand what Aulia means but regardless of that it's actually Faizal the good guy "Aulia said.
" Aulia's advice if possible Abi began to look for people who could really be trusted other than Faizal, while waiting for Aulia to find a mate "Aulia gives comforting advice.
" There must be Bi, God willing there must be Abi do not worry that there is all a way, whether it is this afternoon or the next few days " Aulia continued, which she herself did not know the direction of her speech.
" Alright Nduk... " Say Kyai Abas, taking out his phone.
Aulia and Umi Tinah could only fall silent and pay attention to Kyai Abas.
Kyai Abas pressed Faizal's number, then Aulia remembered her unfinished work.
" Surely the emails have piled up "Think Aulia in the heart.
...****************...
Faizal was still watching Arsha and Nurul's movements, his phone rang but he did not hear it
...****************...
Kyai Abas is still waiting for an answer from the phone across the street.
...****************...
Faizal began to realize there were shakes in his pants pocket, immediately he reached into his phone and saw the screen there was the inscription "Candidate-in-law "yes Faizal wrote the name of Kyai Abas as a candidate-in-law.
Unwilling to make Kyai Abas wait for a long time, he immediately picked up the phone "Assalamu'alaikum Kyai.... "
...****************...
" Wa' alaikumsallam warahmutulli wabarakatuh" replied Kyai Abas.
...****************...
" How is Kyai doing now? " Faizal continues the conversation.
Arsha ignores what Faizal is talking about with Kyai Abas but Faizal is styled as if he wants to heat Arsha up because he is called by Kyai Abas.
...****************...
" Thank God it's getting better, Faizal can you help me? " Kyai Abas began to speak seriously, Umi Tinah left him alone.
...****************...
" Oh yes, of course, Kyai, what can I help you with? Or am I going straight to Kyai's house to help? " Faizal asked excitedly, he got up from his seat and wanted to leave.
Arsha just silently watched while the others were busy with their respective jobs.
...****************...
" No, do not even bother Faizal later, let Arsha come here yes "Kyai Abas refused subtly.
...****************...
Faizal quietly heard the answer from Kyai Abas on the phone across there.
Faizal's eyes now looked at Arsha's face deeply, while Arsha who knew himself in Faizal's eyes could only smile while nodding his head like a salute.
" No kok Kyai is not troublesome at all, I did have the intention to visit kyai this afternoon "Faizal tried to convince Kyai that he was allowed to come to his house.
...****************...
Kyai Abas turned his head towards his wife Umi Tinah, Umi Tinah gave encouragement for Kyai Abas to continue his conversation on the phone.
" So this is Faizal, there is something I want to talk to Arsha so let Arsha come here yes "Kyai Abas gives an explanation.
...****************...
As not accepted by the explanation Kyai Abas Faizal tried again to explain his intentions.
" But Kyai I also have something to talk about "Reveal Faizal while smiling his tone slightly weakened interspersed with a small laugh.
Arsha is busy doing his duties, teaching assignments and and learning tasks in addition to teaching Arsha is also still learning.
...****************...
Kyai Abas seemed to run out of words to reject Faizal's permission, but Umi Tinah grasped Kyai Abas' hand to keep encouraging him.
" You can tell me another time Faizal but for today I have to say something related to Arsha "Kyai Abas told me a little lie.
...****************...
At this point Faizal fell silent and thought for a moment, "What would Kyai want to talk about? Why not yesterday, but yesterday Arsha also came "
" Ehmmm Kyai if you may know what to talk about? " Faizal started to find out.
...****************...
Kyai Abas began to understand why Aulia did not like Faizal little by little the original character of Faizal began to open up.
" It's Arsha's business and his family, you and I don't need to know that Faizal's only job is to deliver messages from his parents! " Kyai Abas echoed his words.
...****************...
After hearing the words of Kyai Abas Faizal it was realized that he was indeed outrageous.
" Oh yes Kyai forgive me, later I will tell Arsha to visit Kyai "Arsha to be normal again and relax his speech intonation.
Arsha, who felt her name was mentioned, stopped her activities and turned her eyes to Faizal.
...****************...
" Thank you Faizal for his understanding, next time do not interfere in the affairs of others again yes "Kyai Abas advised Faizal.
...****************...
Faizal who heard the message from Kyai Abas so felt very guilty, his attitude dizzy as if he was dealing with Kyai Abas.
" Yes Kyai I'm sorry, I was wrong earlier "Faizal replied Kyai Abas limp.
...****************...
" Can I just talk to Arsha now? " Kyai Abas asks Faizal, Kyai Abas anticipates that Faizal will not deliver his message.
...****************...
" Good Kyai, wait a minute "Answer Faizal, his steps approached Arsha.
Faizal's hand thrust his phone at Arsha, Arsha who saw Faizal immediately grabbed the phone.
" From Kyai Abas "The movements of Faizal's mouth, Arsha nodded.
At first glance Arsha looked at the screen of the phone that Faizal gave was "Prospective In-laws "Written by him.
" Prospective in-laws? How about prospective in-laws? " Task Arsha in a confused heart.
" Buruan "Faizal reminds me
" Oh yeah-yes "Arsha took a quick seat, pinned by Faizal's phone in his ear.
" Assalamu'alaikum's.... " Arya started talking
...****************...
"Wa'alaikumsalam Arshaka's... " Myai Abas replied to Arsha's greeting.
...****************...
" Kyai has recovered? " Tanya Arsha, while Faizal returns to his desk and begins to work on his work.
...****************...
" Alhamduliah.... " Kyai Abas answered Arsha's question.
...****************...
" Thank God.... I'm glad to hear Kyai "Arsha talking back.
...****************...
" Yes Son.... " Sahut Kyai Abas.
" Oh yes, the afternoon will come again yes to the house, there is something I want to talk to you about "Advanced Kyai Abas.
...****************...
" Could Kyai, later I went there around the dzuhur bakda yes "Arsha agreed to Kyai Abas request, Arsha eyes were on Faizal who busied himself as if he did not hear Arsha's voice.
...****************...
" Well then I wait, assalamu'alaikum.... " Kyai Abas ends talks.
...****************...
" Wa'alaikumssalam warahmatulli wabarakatuh "Arsha also ended his phone.
On seeing her return to Faizal's cell phone screen, "Prospective in-laws "ended her writing conversation.
Arsha walked over to Faizal, "Thank you ", said Arsha.
" Yes the same "Short Faizal replied, Arsha still stood watching Faizal.
" Why is it still here ? Faizal asked Arsha.
" Yes Mas, later abis dzuhur kok me to the house of his future father-in-law Mas " Ledek Arsha slowly but deeply.
Faizal misbehaves Arsha, while Arsha just smiles.
