Adzan magrib reverberated, the day was getting dark. Aliyah was still shocked and afraid of the incident that had just happened to her. However, the call of Adhan calmed his heart.
"Sorry, may I ask for help" asked Aliyah.
"Yes, what can I help you with"? Jack looked at the pretty face of Aliyah who was bruised from crying. Instantly Jack's heart pounded with thump at the look on Aliyah's face. It's weird how Jack feels right now.
"Please take me to the nearest Madjid bang. I want to pray Magrib first" pinta Aliyah.
"Okay ma'am, let me take it" replied Jack with enthusiasm.
After walking 5 minutes Jack and Aliyah arrived in front of the Mosque. Aliyah was about to enter the mosque, but she was confused to look at Jack, what about the groceries that are now being lined up by Jack? It was difficult for Aliyah to bring all the groceries into the Madjid herself. He also asked Jack.
Jack was aware of Aliyah's confused gaze.
"Mbak please pray first, these items I will take care of really, just calm I will not steal" said Jack with a sweet smile.
"hah. oh yes bang, sorry to bother" replied Aliyah relieved.
15 Minutes later, Aliyah came out of the mosque and approached Jack, who was waiting outside the fence. Aliyah's face looked fresh after performing the prayer. His heart was now a little calm and relieved. Indeed, prayer is the best medicine in times of sadness, fear, and anxiety.
" Are you ready to pray? Where are you going now? let me take you home" said Jack with a smile.
" Yes bang, I ask you to take me to the end of the road there yes, at the intersection of the supermarket" pinta Aliyah.
" Okay, come on" Jack replied leading the way.
Arriving at the intersection, Aliyah looked crotchety as if looking for something. Then his eyes flashed to see a white car across the street. Yes it was his father's car. Aliyah got a plate on her father's car. BA 54XXX'S
Aliyah waved her hand and shouted "Dadahh... Lia's here...!!!" The car went straight to Aliyah.
Flashback...
When ablution in the mosque, Aliyah borrowed a cell phone belonging to one of the mosque worshipers to call her parents. Aliyah was a smart girl, so she memorized the number of her parents and closest relatives, because she thought the number of parents or relatives was important. Just in case something happens to her she can contact her parents.
" Assalamualaikum Umi. This is Lia mi.." Aliyah said
"Vaalaikumsalam..Oh Allah son.Why this hour has not come home, father and umi are worried where your phone can not be contacted again. Where are you, baby..? whose cell phone is this?" cerocos umi Aliyah who was very worried about her son who from noon came to the market until night had not returned home"
" Umi.later Aliyah tell me yes.. Aliyah now asks for help to pick up Aliyah on the road to the supermarket. Aliyah waited at the intersection of Imam Bonjol park ya mi.." pinta Aliyah was in a hurry because it was not good to call a long time with someone else's phone.
" yes yes, son. umi told me to pick up now to go there.wait, it's beautiful" replied Umi Aliyah.
Aliyah immediately opened the door of her father's car and put all her groceries in. He sat in the front seat next to his father. Aliyah entered the car without looking at Jack. Aliyah even seemed to forget that there was Jack behind her.
" Let's go straight home Aliyah tired yah.." said Aliyah with a soft tone like running out of energy.
Tampa's stale father Aliyah immediately drove her car home. Aliyah's journey is still quiet and pensive..
" What's the father's son? why is his face so tangled?" ask Dad.
" Well.sorry yeah.later Aliyah story at home.the story is very long" replied Aliyah sayu.
Not long after that they arrived home. A very luxurious two-story house looks from the outside. Next to the house there is a car garage filled with luxury cars. Yep..Aliyah was the son of a rich man in the city of Padang. His father was a businessman and ustadz who owned an elite boarding school. Entering the luxurious house, it turns out not only from the outside but also luxurious inside. In the dining room there was an umi who had been anxiously waiting for Aliyah and her father to come home.
(the house of Aliyah)
" O Allah..this is what, son?" ask umi while rubbing the bruised face of Aliyah. Aliyah was crying because her eyes and nose were red.
While sitting down and eating dinner Aliyah told him all the things that happened to her today.
" So umi.ayah.." said Aliyah finished telling the story.
" But Seperi's father didn't see anyone near you" replied Aliyah's father.
" Astagfirullah's...Aliyah forgot her well.even Aliyah has not said thank you to the guy well.mi.." reply Aliyah was shocked.
Aliyah realized that when her father came, she immediately got into the car without saying a word to the person who had helped her.
" Ouch..Aliyah so feel guilty Seperi do not know thank you.Supposedly Aliyah said thanks to the guy" added Aliyah again.
" Next time I want to say thank you. Now Umi really can't let Aliyah go to the supermarket again. If anyone wants to buy already bought elsewhere, do not supermarket. In the supermarket many thugs from the past have been famous like that" ninyir umi Aliyah.
" Can't mi.besok aliyah have to meet the guy. Aliyah did not want to owe him any favor, let alone that she had helped Aliyah so much today" replied Aliyah a little stubbornly.
"It's okay, but it must be accompanied by a driver yes, there is no story to go alone" said Aliyah's father._
