Assalamualaikum Ustadz Ku
3. Ilham asks Rashid to help his new cottage
After the Isya prayer, Kesya and Rashid fulfilled Bu Nyai's invitation. For dinner together.
Ms. Nyai sumringah saw the arrival of the sisters and immediately told them to enter.
Various dishes have been arranged neatly on the dining table. Kesya felt ashamed because she did not help her future father-in-law.
"Sorry Bu Nyai, Kesya did not help with the preparation of this dinner," Pak Kiai seemed to smile at Kesya's words
"It's okay. Let's just eat right away, talk after the meal." We all ate without talking. After dinner we were taken to the living room.
"Let's sit down, Nak Kesya," indeed the shame was very big felt by Kesya. Sitting with Pak Kiai who is very respected all this time is very extraordinary for him. Rashid sat next to Ilham and waited for what Pak Kiai would say.
"Sorry before, you must be tired because of the long journey." Pak Kiai paused his words, while looking at Kesya and Rashid. Then I saw the serious-looking Inspiration listening to him.
"This marriage agreement we made while we were still together mondok first. Like your Abah" he looked bright, remembering his past with his father Kesya.
Flass back
"Gun, I want us to be besan later" said the young Maulana at that time.
"Lan, if I have no problem as long as the children want, do not force if they refuse, not good also later," said the young Thunder. Kesya's Dad.
"Don't worry. Trust me I can arrange that later," said the young Maulana confidently and steadily.
Flass
"That your father was a close friend since we first went to Krapyak," Kesya looked teary-eyed to hear the story of his father who turned out to be a close friend of Kiainya. His mother never told him about the problem.
For years they lost contact with Pak Kiai's family. They established friendship back when Papah Kesya died, Mr. Kiai who got the news that the father of one of his students died finally decided to accuse because it happened that he was visiting the house of his father-in-law who had long been abandoned because no one occupied.
Mr. Kiai was very surprised when he learned that the deceased turned out to be his own best friend, who almost 20 years lost contact with him.
After getting out of the cottage, Kesya's father did move around the house, because following the grandfather who was a soldier was always transferred. Be they los contacts very long.
Good luck happened with the young Maulana, because he was betrothed by the Grandfather with the son of his best friend who owned a boarding school, after his father-in-law died, the young Maulana and his wife continued to manage the boarding school, the boarding house, from just hundreds of santri to have a thousand more Santri at this time. A very good achievement for them.
Young thunder, he could only become a teacher and Ustadz in his village at that time. After marrying Andin, they moved to Tangerang and settled there.
Kesya and Rashid are almost five years old. Actually Rashid's age is almost the same as Ilham, only a few years different. But the nature of Rashid's maturity is very obvious.
"Rasyid, are you willing to help me at the boarding school I'm piloting? " all of a sudden Ilham decided on his Abah's story that was reminiscing about the past.
Inspiration saw Kesya who started crying. Not that it feels. Finally he chose to divert their conversation.kwatir Kesya more sad.
Inspiration understands Kesya's feelings. It must be sad to be reminded of his long-dead late father.
"My ability is still limited, I'm afraid that Ilam will be disappointed," replied Rashid.
"Ah. we can both learn mas. do not worry. I am also still learning how," Ilham smiled because he saw Kesya not crying anymore.
"Mas, Kesya's departure to Egypt is also soon. Mas Rashid can help Mas Ilham there, as well as mamah. Pity our own mama mas, have accepted the offer mas Ilham," Kesya finally open his voice. after a long time silence because Abah who from earlier told about the past Abah and his father.
"Mas should discuss first the same mamah Dek, mamah will ask brother to go overboard, not to do anything else," Mas Rashid looked at Kesya gently.
"Oh yes.Later we meet your mother, all of us want to propose Kesya officially to your family." Mr. Kiai looked at the brothers gently.
"That's good Mr. Kiai, we're waiting for that good day. Oh yeah because it's already night time, we'll excuse you first, it's not good if girls are too late to visit the boys' house, " Mas Rashid got up from his seat and invited Kesya to return to the dormitory.
Inspiration that has been so acute that it seems unwilling to let go of Kesya. He followed Kesya to the outside. Abah and Umi immediately rest because they are tired. A day on the way and long awaited Insham at the station.
"Mas, I want to talk to Kesya for a moment, "Ilham asked Rashid for permission. Rashid nodded and stepped a bit away from them, giving them some privacy.
"You wait for me yes, then we go to your house for our marriage proposal," Kesya just nodded and passed towards the older brother who was waiting for him to return to the dorm together.
They separate. Kesya to Putri and Rashid dormitory to ustadz dormitory. It just so happened that Rashid helped the cottage party to teach the new santri and his junior. Rashid is a smart and intelligent person. He went to college as well. Time is really used for useful things.
After entering the dormitory, Kesya went straight to her room and lay there. Friends he just saw it, did not dare to disturb.
The news of Kesya and Ilham sudab's wedding plans spread, not knowing who was the ringleader. Now, the princess santri was busy hinting at the plan.
"His luck is very good. Can marry ma Ustadz Ilham who is super cool," said Mila with enthusiasm level god.
"Could yah. Mr. Kiai betrothed them, what good is Kesya anyway? Bagusan me everywhere. Why am I not the one who was chosen by Mr. Kiai? Not fair!" Silvia Hajar seemed to dislike the wedding plan of Kesya and Ilham which he thought was very strange and sudden..
"I was with Ustadz Ilham when I was a child. SD is always a class. He's a school where, I must be there too. Only when he went to college in Egypt, I was not able to participate, because indeed my brain capacity is not qualified for that "Silvia still does not like.
"Kesya is great, only 18 years have become Hafizah, winning races everywhere. Scholarship to Egypt as well. It's cool, right?" Mela is now commenting.
