Aisyah's

Aisyah's
Reminds


Aisyah and Dewi have just returned from the market. They carry 2 plastic bags in their hands. They walked from the front gate of the pesantren to his house bi Ratna.


" Aisyah, I went home first ya fear Syifa looking for me " said Dewi while giving her groceries to Aisyah. Aisyah just nodded.


" Asalamualaikum" said the Goddess as she passed away.


" The Waalaikumsalam "


Aisha opened the door and said hello, but no one answered her greeting.


" Where is my aunt going" said Aisyah speaking to herself. Slowly he walked towards the kitchen with his groceries, he fell silent when he saw Riziq sitting at the dining table while enjoying his cooking bi Ratna. Riziq only smiled when he saw Aisyah, he was casually still devouring the cuisine of bi Ratna.


Bi Ratna was coolly frying the fish not far in front of him Riziq.


" You see Aisyah, your kitchen rat is back, so be ready to share the food back with him" said bi Ratna teasingly. Riziq just smiled in response. Slowly Aisyah sat down before him Riziq, she did not say a word, still looking at Riziq who was now feeding the last meal to her mouth, but Aisyah immediately pulled the rice container in front of her Riziq. Riziq who was aware of it immediately smiled.


" Now eat me not as much as a uni, so you don't have to be afraid I'll be as fat as a Goddess" said Riziq casually.


Instantly Aisyah immediately shifted the rice container to its original place. Somehow he felt awkward to be close to Riziq, like many changes in his best friend, Riziq used to be very talkative, but now Riziq is very economical to talk, only now he is cheap to smile.


" Why is Uni looking at me like that ? " ask Riziq.


" You changed Ziq a lot, uni to the point of not recognizing you "


" What changes have happened to me ? " ask Riziq while looking at Aisyah.


" A lot of "answer Aisha briefly. Riziq just smiled hearing Aisyah's reply.


" Did my attitude change?, or did my physical appearance change ? " ask Riziq back.


" Everything, now you look more relaxed, and your physique now looks different "


" Is my face now as handsome as my brother ? " ask Riziq while looking at Aisyah.


" No, you're still less handsome than your brother, it's just that you look more


sweet ups "At the instant Aisyah instantly covered her mouth. Riziq who was aware of it immediately smiled.


" So I look cute?, didn't the uni say that my face was dark, even darker than a total solar eclipse" replied Riziq with a smile. Makes Aisyah wrong on her own.

Evening arrived. As usual Aisyah and Dewi went to the plantation looking for wind to relieve her fatigue. While walking, Dewi was already holding Syifa with a slight grumble.


" You're so heavy Syifa, I should have lost a little weight because I carry you every day "giggles Goddess.


" You think holding your child is the right diet" Aisyah said as she walked.


Arriving at the plantation they fell silent to see Riziq already standing there.


" Asalamualaikum "


" The Waalaikumsalam "


Riziq stared at their arrival.


" I just still miss this place" replied Riziq as he gazed towards the plantation. Aisyah just nodded.


" Uni, I'm so sorry about Fahmi's departure, sorry I wasn't there when you were grieving "


" Where do you know about Fahmi ? " ask Aisyah in wonder.


" There is not a single thing that I do not know about you uni, I know brother Fahmi, he is one of his students kiyai Mansyur, I have met him several times in cairo, he said, uni loves him very much ? " asked Riziq, but Aisha was silent.


" Why is the union silent?, if you don't love her then why do you accept her " said Riziq.


" You said yourself that the uni should marry a good man, righteous and unmarried, and all that is in the Fahmi mas, but if you ask the uni to love him or not, then, uni is difficult to answer ", said Aisyah.


" Why ? " ask Riziq.


Aisyah only answered by shaking her head, since she was heartbroken in the Rashid Ustad she slightly closed her heart to other men.


" I also heard that Yasmin's face asked you to marry my sister "


" Where do you know that ? " ask Aisyah curiously.


" I told you there's nothing I don't know about you "


Aisyah stared fixedly at Riziq who was standing before her.


" Why did you reject her uni?, didn't you love my sister so much "asked Riziq who was now facing Aisyah.


" Don't you forbid me to marry a married man, the union doesn't want you to hate me" replied Aisyah. At that instant Riziq smiled at Aisyah's reply.


" You didn't forget what I said, did you, Uni ? "


" What "ask Aisyah.


" You don't forget that if I ever say, if I come back, you haven't got your soul mate then I'll marry you myself" Riziq reminded.


Deg.


Aisyah was silent at Riziq's words. I don't know why his heart is pounding.


" You didn't forget uni ? " ask Riziq back.


" Yes uni remember that, then ? "


" If you are pleased, allow me to marry you" Riziq assured. Making Aisyah surprised at him, as well as the Goddess.


Aisyah silently stared at the spot, trying to digest Riziq's words.


" You're serious Ziq ? " ask the curious Goddess.


" Do you doubt me ? "


Aisyah became nervous and misbehaved, she was confused as to what to answer. Riziq smiled as he looked at Aisyah's group.


" I'm not forcing you to uni, you don't have to answer now, I'll give you time to think " said Riziq as he looked at Aisyah. Aisha just kept quiet while bowing her proverb.
