The Light in My Darkness

" Well, it's like that! I'm sorry for bothering you! Excuse me! Good Morning!" said Danis with a wry face.
" Please! Not disturbing at all! Good Morning!" answer Aaron.
In addition to his unwillingness, Aaron also feels that Brian did not really ask for help, because he did not come alone to him, instead sending Danis to him.
Danis steps out of Aaron's room and calls Brian. He was terrified of the anger of his Boss for not succeeding in asking Aaron to teach him.
" Hello, Boss!" greet Danis as her phone is connected.
" How?" ask Brian.
" Sorry, Boss! He.. not ready!" danis was afraid.
" Strumpy Basic! Just taking care of something trivial you can't! Really useless! Wait for me there!" terial Brian is angry.
" ba...baik Boss!" reply Danis scared.
Brian closes the call from Danis and contacts Ganda, his office driver. After driving for nearly an hour, Brian had reached the Aaron Family Foundation. Danis, who had been waiting at the guard post, immediately told Ganda to enter the parking lot after she told the security guard if it was her boss' car.
" Boss!" sapa Danis lowered her head.
" Basic of useless!" brian got out of his car.
Danis just lowered her head.
" Where is he?" ask Brian to be angry.
" Please Boss!" danis said then walked in front towards Aaron's room.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
Danis knocked on Aaron's door.
" Yes, come in!" answer Aaron.
Aaron was surprised as he looked towards the open door. Brian stood before him with his arrogant look. An arrogant man who has made his life full of problems.
" Asalamu'alaikum!" said Brian.
" Wa'alaikumsalam Wr. Wb!" aaron replied surprised to hear greetings from Brian, as well as Danis.
" How's Ustadz doing?" asked Brian to take off his sunglasses.
" Thank God be good!" answer Aaron flatly.
" Can I come in?" ask Brian flat.
" Please!" answer Aaron.
Brian went into Aaron's room and sat down on the sofa with his right leg superimposed on the calf of his left leg while his hand was stretched out on the couch. Aaron stood up from his chair and sat down on the single sofa beside Brian.
" If you're here just for that, I'm still in my mind!" harun said firmly.
" I know, ustadz must be offended because I didn't come here by myself! So I came here to ask for help to teach ustadz about Islam!" brian said with great emphasis.
" I'm not the right person to teach you! My science is not much!" answer Aaron kekeh.
Brian was silent, his hands squeezing hard on the sofa he was sitting on.
" I hear you're looking for land for an orphanage in the west?" brian looked at Aaron.
Aaron was shocked to hear Brian's remarks, because he was planning to find land in the west to establish a boarding school of his dreams. Because there is an area that is still green and wide.
" I can give you the land and also build it for Ustadz!" brian said casually.
He was sure this offer of his could not be ignored by Aaron just like that. Aaron could have put forward his selfishness and self-esteem, but his foster children need pesantren for a place to learn also he wants to provide a good religious education for Muslim children in Indonesia.
" Why do you want to learn?" ask Aaron at last.
" Because I promised my wife to learn it within a month!" answer Brian.
" Islam cannot be learned in just one month! It takes years, even our whole lives, to understand!" said Aaron.
" I just need Ustadz to teach me the basics of Islam, especially about prayer and teaching!" said Brian again.
" It can't be just a month either!" harun said annoyedly.
" I'm a smart man!" replied Brian arrogantly.
Aaron sighed again hearing the arrogance of the man beside him.
" Do you not want to learn all because of God?" ask Aaron. Brian scrunched his forehead.
" That's why teach me! And Ustadz will get what Ustadz dreamed of!" said Brian.
Aaron stared intently at Brian's eyes, looking earnestly at the man's words.
" well! Come here every 4pm to 8pm!" said Aaron.
" I teach at school!" said Aaron.
Brian was silent and thought.
" What time is ustadz finished?" ask Brian.
" Lunch time, 12!" answer Aaron.
" I'll be coming to the ustadz campus at 1pm to 5pm!" said Brian.
" good!" answer Aaron.
Brian reached out his hand and was accepted by Aaron.
" Let's not let anyone know about this!" said Brian.
" Of course! You can believe it!" answer aaron.
" We start later?" ask Brian.
" Can!" answer Aaron.
" Later my assistant will give us a letter of agreement so that Ustadz can learn first!" said Brian.
Aaron nodded his head.
" Asalamu'alaikum!" pamit Brian's.
" Da'alaikumsalam!" aaron replied satisfied.
Brian breezed out of Aaron's room and headed to his car.
" Prepare the agreement documents immediately and give them to him to study!" brian told Danis.
" Ready, Boss!" answer Danis.
" The land document is the same Karin!" said Brian again.
" Ready, Boss!" sahut Danis's.
" Call Nabil, if he's messing with his job, tell him I won't hesitate to take back mine!" said Brian.
" Yes, Boss!" said Brian.
Hm! He returned to being a cold and haughty Boss! inner Danis. Brian went back to his office and continued meeting there.
While at the Fatma residence, Ummi was cooking for lunch with the help of Fatma and Rania.
" Are you going to eat at home, Nia?" ask Salma.
" No, Ummi! Brother Arkan has a meeting at the restaurant all lunch!" answer Rania.
" Hmmm, that kid! I've told you many times, but still!" salma was disappointed.
" I'm sorry Arkan, Ummi! He didn't want to, but it was his client who insisted because his wife was not feeling well and he didn't want to get away from her!" Rania.
" Thank God there's a good reason!" answer Salma.
" What about your husband, Dek?" ask Salma.
" Heh?" sahut Fatma, he had been daydreaming about Brian.
" Is your husband going to have lunch at home?" ask Salma.
" Eh.anu.later call Ummi!" fatma answered nervously.
" What do you think, son?" ask Salma.
" There's no Ummi!" fatma.
" If you are sure of him and want him to be your whole husband, help him with your prayers!" salma said firmly.
Fatma did not expect Umminya to talk like that, because she thought if Umminya was sad because she got a husband like Brian.
" Thank you, Ummi!" fatma said with teary eyes and hugged her Umminya.
" Already! You call there!" salma
Fatma rushed to her room, Salma and Rania just smiled at Fatma's behavior.
" May the young man be serious with his intentions!" do'a Salma's.
" Amij!" answer Rania.
Fatma walks into her room and grabs her cell phone, hesitating to call or text Brian. What am I supposed to say? inner Fatma. The clock has shown the number 11 passing, soon dzuhur and lunch time. As he was confused by looking at his phone, it suddenly rang and the name DIA was on the screen. Fatma was shocked to see the name on her phone and almost dropped it. Fatma just kept quiet and daydreamed to see her phone, until the ringing a few times, only then she realized and raised it.
