The sun had already started to fall as the Ocean was on its way home. Although it will drown, but the day still looks bright. The sound of the adzan maghrib was echoed when the Ocean passed the Mosque near his home. Finally he decided to pray Maghrib congregation there.
After performing the Maghrib prayer, the ocean did not go home immediately. Considering Venus is not home yet, she feels no harm as well as waiting for Isya. Maybe this is the silver lining, when he was in his shirt office, the coffee spill required him to change his shirt.
While waiting for the prayer on the terrace of the mosque which is approximately one hour from the Maghrib prayer, Samudera was invited to chat by the imam of the Mosque there, his name is Ustadz Haikal. He is still relatively young and is a graduate of S2 from Al-Azhar, Cairo.
"How are you, Sam sir?" Tanya Ustadz Haikal opened the conversation.
"Alhamdulillah, ustad. good." The ocean slightly bent his body while welcoming the hands of the haikal ustadz who wanted to feel him.
"Alhamdulillah, MaashayAllah. New from the office, sir?"
"Yes, this is new from the office, it just so happened that I went by so I stopped by."
Ustadz Haikal nodded with an occasional swipe of his thick beard but always looked neat.
"How is this ustadz my study plan? It's been a month mua'llafnya but ngajinya not." The ocean shifted a little backwards leaning its back against the wall. One leg he bent docked on the floor then the other he bent with the knee he held with his right hand.
"If you have time, then this maghrib may be finished, or after Isya also InshaaAllah I can. From the saddle of his time, father if it was this night. Even if I'm not lost, there are still Farhan and Ahmad who can sire." Ustadz Haikal speech gives several options to determine the schedule of learning naji for the Ocean.
"Well, that's Ahmad." Ustadz Haikal pointed to Ahmad who was not too far away from them.
"Ahmadhm..." Ustadz Haikal called a man whose age was not much different from his.
"Yes, ustadz." Ahmad came closer and sat with them.
"Mad. This is sir Samudera want to learn to teach, in case I am not bad and sir Samudera come here, please accompany him to learn to teach."
Ahmad is very enthusiastic, the dream of sitting near the most respected and respected people in the environment here alone feels extraordinary, especially if you can sit together to study and study the Qur'an.
"God willing I was ready ustadz," he said politely then turned to the Ocean. "It is an honor for me to sit with my father to learn from God." The highlight of the eye was emitting a happy twinkle as well as a strong spirit and confidence making the Ocean quite touched.
"Thank you Ustadz Ahmad, please guide him."
Ahmad shook his head quickly with his hands also waving quickly.
"Don't call me ustadz sir, my knowledge is still a fingernail rather than ustadz Haikal and again my age may be a few years under the father. Just call me by name as ustadz Haikal called me." Ahmad felt very inappropriate to be called ustadz by people as great as the Ocean.
"But it is impolite to call a teacher by name alone." The ocean knows how to respect teachers.
"No problem, sir. Just call me a name."
The ocean no longer debated, he also understood Ahmad's wishes. He was also at the age of Ahmad who seemed still in his early twenties. It will feel old when the age has been labeled another call juxtaposed with the name.
Not long after, the time came too. They hurried to leave the terrace of the mosque. Ahmad himself went straight to the pulpit to proclaim the adhan while Samudera and Ustadz Haikal both headed to the ablution room.

Venus rushes down from the car and heads to the trunk of the car. The rain suddenly fell.
"Non Venus just come home, let the groceries be our business." Alex prevents Venus from getting her groceries out of the trunk.
"Here I'm just going to get the stuff I want to take to the room. Please remind Ms. Wati and Ms. Aida of this grocery business. Ask for food preparation. The meat is placed each in the box for the once cooked portion, as well as the vegetables. Okay!"
Venus wants vegetables and meat to be cut into pieces and divided into containers so that when you want to cook, just take, wash and clove only. Save time, save energy and of course avoid the nature of mubadzir, wasting food in the refrigerator because of the error of storage.
After delivering all the typical instructions of her cooking hobby, Venus immediately passed into the house and headed straight for her room.
Ekkhhmm...
When his feet just stepped on one step of the stairs, suddenly there was a sound of deheman that made him stop and glance at the origin of the sound of deheman earlier.
"Good, a new wife comes home at this hour. Want how to take care of the husband well if his work prefers to be in a daze rather than waiting for the husband in the house."
It was the voice of Venus' mother-in-law, Jeny's mother.
"Ah, mother.." Venus turned her steps closer to her mother-in-law.
"Assalamu'alaikum, ma'am." Venus grabbed her mother-in-law's hand and then carried it to her nose.
For a moment the middle-aged woman who still looks beautiful was fixated on the treatment of her bar-bar son-in-law, given her disrespectful behavior earlier in the office.
"I'll stay, ma'am. I'm going in, I'm going to clean up too."
Her mouth was still tightly clenched and was throwing a face away. Venus did not want to take a headache and soon passed from there.
Venus was very relieved because without the need to open the disgrace of her household to Muthia earlier, Mba, finally, he managed to buy contraceptive pills at the supermarket which happened to have a supermarket that had an area for displaying drugs and vitamins.
Not wanting to arouse suspicion of the Ocean, Venus did not forget to buy vitamins that are bottled so that it is easier for her to replace her safety pills into a vitamin bottle earlier.
Of course Mba Muthia also did not know because Venus had pretended to forget one of the fruits she wanted to buy, dipper together, tidung, mba Muthia volunteered to return to the fruit and vegetable section while Venus continued her other shopping activities. And that's when Venus moved quickly to find its main target.
Without delay, Venus accelerates her cleaning activities and immediately establishes Islamic prayers.
Didn't want to make her mother-in-law wait for a long time alone downstairs. Not wanting to seek good behavior, but adab received guests moreover it is the mother of a man whose status as her husband must be upheld.
At least it can reduce the guilt of Venus who has bad intentions to immediately end her marriage.
Venus knew she was wrong, so she always begged her Lord for forgiveness, but she always begged him to be given the best way out of her relationship with the Ocean.
