~Ten Months Later~
"When I prayed the first prayer, I felt close to God. I think God is by my side. After I prayed, I really felt at peace. In the past, my heart often felt empty but after praying, I felt calmer, and sure if this was what I was looking for all this time."
"I feel very confident if my life grip both during the storm, during the rain, and when it is sunny, the place of holding my life is only to God" explained Yohan.
He was filling out an Islamic study for a story sharing session with converts. Mr. Widipun was present at this place, he saw Yohan from a distance. From the second floor of the building.
Yohan's embarrassment certainly stirred the public. Who doesn't know him? Before it was reported that he was broke, imprisoned, and converted to Yohan Nevan Haiden, he was clearly a womanizer known as a maniac. But in fact, God chose Yohan to seek guidance.
"I didn't expect the friends in this room to accept me. It's a pride. Frankly, I was very embarrassed and felt inferior. You know my dark story and my past, but .. you're not disgusted when you see me" he said, looking down. There, Mr. Widi's eyes are glazed. He is happy with the current Yohan.
"What was Mr Yo's motivation for deciding to convert? I've heard of birds saying that you did it to get a woman and didn't really want to convert to Islam. Please kindly explain" asked the host. He is a famous artist who is a member of the hijrah artist club.
"Honestly, the initial motivation was because of women. But now I realize that the woman was an intermediary sent by God to make me what I am today. Having often heard him read the Qur'an and seen him pray, I became interested in learning about Islam."
"After I studied, I came to the conclusion that Islam is the only religion that governs all aspects of life. Not only in terms of worship, but Islam has arranged its adherents starting from everyday life, human relations with oneself, fellow humans, the universe, and humans with their God. Even up to the way to drink, spit, and cut kukupun there are rules. That's one of the reasons that makes me sure."
"In addition, what is contained in the Qur'an I believe is so perfect. Many things in it can be proven the truth through the development of science and technology in the present. When scientists discovered new facts about the heavens and the universe, it turned out to be .. tens of thousands of years ago, God explained these facts to the Qur'an through His apostle."
"I just learned it, but what I got amazed me. And there are still many things that I do not know at all about the privilege of this religion. So, I asked for his guidance and please be understood if what I said just now is wrong," Yohan explained, bowing her body. Then the audience was amazed and smiled.
.
Yohan then followed the tausiyah event until it was finished. Mr. Widi faithfully accompanied. When the show was over, several attendees were seen coming to Yohan to greet the man. The average of them said ....
"MasyaaAllah, tabarokallah, walhamdulillah, welcome my brother, may you be istiqomah."
Yohan was moved, she felt that this time she had been treated this special. Then suddenly, the man's back was hugging. Yohan was shocked. When turning over, who hugged him turned out to be Mr. Deanka who was routine to follow the study between his busyness.
"Deanka, you surprised me!" she hugged Deanka. Precisely squeezed Deanka's body until the man who had hazel-necked complained.
"Oh, sick, Yo!" bentak Deanka's. Then they smiled together. The relationship between the two has really improved.
"Where is the city?" ask Yohan.
"Hahaha, Agam is in the courtyard of the mosque. I'm babysitting Keivel. The toddler continued to act, not to be silent. Like there's no fatigue. Agam said, Keivel put the jama'ah sandals in the trash, ", Deanka explained as he walked around with Yohan to a place that had been provided by the committee.
"The BB's coming, right?" Yohan asked again.
"It looks like he didn't come, definitely because he was busy with his twins" Deanka replied.
"Hahaha, oiya, I forgot. Any luck, huh, Dean? Young people already have three children. 'Well me, married yet, '" muttered Yohan.
"Patience, you're just waiting for Seanya to be ready, right?"
"Yes, he wants to graduate school first. It's still second grade high school. It felt impatient, and the bigger it was, the more beautiful Sea became. Oiya, why don't you bring your child. Until now, I don't even know your son's name." Yohan looked in wonder at Deanka.
"For her safety, Bahir's father and I agreed to keep my son's identity a secret. My father and I don't want the tragedy of the headline Not Blue Blood to repeat itself" Deanka replied with a smile.
"Hmm, I get it. Your son boy or girl?"
"Secret," Deanka replied briefly.
"Haha." Both giggle.
From this area, they could see clearly how an Agam Ben Buana had to bow his head and apologize to the worshippers whose sandals were put in the trash cans by Keivel and had not been taken by the committee. Even though it has been taken, they have to sort out the pair of sandals again.
Earlier, the story goes, when Agam and Pak Yudha performed circumcision prayer, Keivel was still beside Agam, when Agam and Pak Yudha were solemn, the toddler walked to the yard without being noticed by the jail.
In two months, Keivel will be two years old, but the boy already has a five-year-old mindset. The speech was already smooth, only, the letters L and R are still pronounced with the letter W.
So, when Keivel says 'car, ' it will be 'mobiw.' The 'apple' fruit will be the 'apew.' fruit.'
Usually, Agam brought Maxim and Enda as well, but today, somehow his bodyguard was not there.
.
"A big apology" said Mr. Dirut, the sentence he said repeatedly.
"It's okay, sir. His name is also children" replied a father.
"Yes, im so sowwy (sorry)" Keivel said.
The fat boy was standing while hugging the mosque pole. His head peeked, as proof if he regretted his actions. Jama'ah turned to the origin of the voice. Directly smiling when he saw the culprit was a toddler who was so handsome and adorable. Her lips were thin and reddish in color, her eyes were round, her eyes were light brown, her hair was pitch black, shiny, and beautifully wavy.
"Don't do it again, okay?"
Agam approached his son, then pulled Keivel's hand to be brought to the crowd of worshippers.
"Kei, benaw-benaw sipped (really sorry). Kei accidentally," he said, bowing.
"Non-intentionally?" Agam furrowed his brows.
"It's okay, sir. We have forgiven and condoned," said a Jama'ah.
.
After the sandal problem is over, Agam leads his son to meet Yohan and Deanka.
"Pawen bewum (Paren hasn't) forgiven Kei?" ask Keivel.
"Already," replied Agam while kissing his son's cheek.
"Did Kei marry Pawen (shame Paren)?"
"No," Agam shook his head.
"Awe (are) you okay, Paw? I wook (look) you so sad, ' said Keivel.
"No," replied Agam briefly. In the end, Agam more often said yes and no to answer his son's questions.
"Hewo (helo), Mr. Deanka, hewo (helo) Mr. Yo," Keivel said to Yohan and Deanka.
"Oh, my goodness, Gam. Your son is so funny." Deanka was worried. Keivel was directly on the bench, lifted into the air while being rotated.
"Yes, go go go! Kei likes bewputaw-putaw (spinning)," always.
"Hahaha, are you dizzy, Gam?" ledek Yohan's.
"I'm not dizzy because of Keivel" replied Agam.
"Lantas, what makes you dizzy?" ask Yohan.
Right now, they were already sitting on a circular chair. Keivel immediately engrossed in playing Deanka tie. Deanka's hands are being tied by the tie. The boy was good at tying.
"Dizziness because kangen fucked," whispered Agam in Yohan's ear.
"Haish, you're 'uh ya!" Yohan hits Agam on the shoulder.
"Ahh, auh," Yohan choked. Which Agam bore, but he who was in pain when his hand hit Agam's shoulder.
"Crazy! Are you getting stronger?" Yohan grimacing. He blew his hand over and over again.
"Maybe" replied Agam briefly.
"Please, please," cried Deanka who was pretending to be kidnapped by Keivel. The boy smiled with satisfaction when he saw Deanka doing it.
"Kei already got permission dawi (from) Mr. Deanka to do (do) this, Paw did not boweh (can) prevent Kei," he said.
"True, do as you please, Kei," said Deanka.
"Alright," Agam relented.
"By the way, the day after tomorrow, we'll come together to Vano's lawyer's wedding?" ask Yohan.
"InshaaAllah" answered Agam and Deanka in unison.
"Paw, when can Kei get married?" ask Keivel. Agam. Deanka and Yohan are upset.
"If you're an adult, Kei" replied Agam.
"Did Mr Yohan enter (including) an adult human being? But, said Paw Tuan Yohan bewum (yet) married, right?"
"Not all adults are married" Agam added.
"Oh, I see," Keivel nodded.
"For what are owang (people) married adults?"
Keivel asked again. Deanka and Yohan held back a laugh, they were satisfied to see Agam tired. Only Keivel can make an Agam scratch his head when it is not itchy.
"Answer to your question, Paren snooze first huh. The answer is tomorrow. Tomorrow Paren will bring a tutoring teacher for you. So, from tomorrow Keivel can ask any question to teacher tutoring Keivel if they feel they have not received a satisfactory answer and Paren or from Momca."
"Ihh, Paw and Mom are not fun. Kei doesn't like guwu wes (teacher tutoring)," he protested.
Keivel's lips are funny. Rounded cheeks. Funny, Deanka's teeth until rattling because they don't have the power to pinch or if they can bite Keivel's cheek.
"Geez, I can't imagine what he'll be like in the future" said Yohan.
"God will be the next generation for religion and nation, Aamiin" said Agam.
"What is geneva (generation), Paw?" Keivel furrowed his brows while running into Yohan's lap. Yohan greeted him and pinched Keivel's cheek.
"Generation is a group of people who share a common birth year, age, location and also historical experiences or events in the same individual that have a significant influence in their growth phase," Yohan.
"Ehmm, what is histowis (historical)? Is that significant? What is phase?" Staring Yohan.
"Hahaha, Yo's responsibility. You shouldn't have answered." Deanka chuckles.
"Gam, please, I give up on your son. Forgive me 'deh, '" Yohan said as she made a gesture of putting the palms together over the head.
"Mr Yo, suck," led by Keivel.
"Hey, the question will be answered at home. Now we go home. Mr. Yo, Mr. Dean, I'm sorry, I didn't make the show until it was over. I promised Linda to go home before Asar" said Agam, waving to Yudha, who was chatting with Mr. Widi.
"Sip, no problem" said Yohan.
"Yes, it's okay, say hello to Nadia, Linda, and your twins."
"Why isn't there a sawam (salam) for Kei? Kei wants to see (greetings) too," Keivel protested. Perhaps feeling envious because her twin sister got a greeting from Deanka.
"Hahaha, well, say hello to your eldest son, Keivel." Then Deanka took something from her wallet. He was going to give Keivel some pocket money.
"No, Key don't like money. Mr. bewikan (give) the money on the w*more (more) need," refused Keivel.
"Oh, my goodness, Gam. What did you feed your son? Then, what do you need, Kei?" Deanka's head bobbles.
"Children of Kei's age, though, only pewwu (need) affection and bewmain (play) bewsama (together) all owang (person) whom the child likes (mentioned) tewutama (especially) bewmain (play) with both owan**g (parent) old man," Keivel explained. He spoke while folding his hands on his chest and resting his feet.
Mr. Yudha immediately applauded, as well as the others. Agam smiled proudly.

"When did he go home? I miss ...," said Freissya. In his room he was receiving a call from Gama. Bederai's water.
"Patience, Ice, the same .. I also miss, but .. This is for the sake of the duty of the country." There Gamapun's voice sounded soft.
"I want to see your face, can't you hold your phone yet?"
"Yes Ice, not yet. It's also my phone you borrowed the commander's cell phone that was very old-fashioned."
"Hulu." Freissya was crying.
"Why crying?"
"Can I catch up with you?"
"Can't honey."
"Huuu, I'm a heavy miss, Val."
"Sama honey, I can't stand it either. It feels like it's on the edge of a horn" complained Gama.
"Issh, which in your brain must be a perverted scene," said Freissya.
"If so why? Fantasizing with your own wife is okay, right?" kilah Gama's.
"Catsh, Val! You suck! And it makes me miss even more."
"Hahaha, oiya are you not yet a positive two?"
"How do you want two positives? You just touched me once, right? My womb needs to be watered many times in order to be fertile."
"Hmm, that's right. Oiya, have you met Linda's sister? Have you seen her twin babies? I miss my words too."
"Already Val, with Mr. Agam, I even accompanied when Linda's sister was SC. Baby's funny. Beautiful and handsome. The baby boy looks like Linda's sister. A baby girl who looks like Keivel. Sometimes it looks like Mr. Agam. His face is still changing."
"Oh, my goodness. It must be very upset. I want to buy a bandana for my pretty bangs."
"Already, Val. I bought a gift containing bandanas. Oiya, Keivel is getting amazing. He can swim and has a private tutor at such a small age. I'm really surprised. He can even paint. The painting embarrassed me, Val. He's very talented. Mr. Agam said, the Keivel painting already has a selling point. Next month, Mr. Agam wants to build a small gallery for Keivel. Ck ck ck," decak Freissya.
"Thank God, I'm happy to hear it."
"The first painting of Keivel is already willing to buy for hundreds of millions, but the same Mr. Agam is still not to be traded."
"Excellent," praised Gama.
"Oiya honey, I want you to do something?" gama Pinta.
"Something? What'sthat?"
"Emm .. sssttt don't be hard, wear a headset."
"What do you want 'clean, Val?" Freissya's brows frowned, then busily searched for a headset.
