Best Teacher And Me
Like the New Bride

The nights, exactly in the last third of the night Irsyad woke Kila. He actually did not have the heart to wake Kila when he was tired like that after a few houses. But, how else? Impressing Kila has become something Irsyad dreamed of. They have been living together since today, from this day on Irsyad must immediately carry out his duties as a household priest to become a prayer priest.

"Cila, let's get up. We pray tahajud together," said Irsyad who tried to wake Kila. Irsyad's speech was very gentle to the size of waking people up and there was no touch whatsoever to wake up, just a sound, but it was enough to wake Kila up. Because it is accustomed to waking up at the same hour for tahajjud prayer as well, Kila becomes more easily awake.

"Yes, Brother. Thanks for waking up Kila. Brother just take the wudhunya first," said Kila and immediately done Irsyad according to Kila's words. Kila still covered her face with a blanket, as her waking face would be visible to Irsyad. He also still wears his hijab while sleeping because he is not ready to show the rambutan to Irsyad, whether until when it will be like that continues, even though they have lived together. However, it was never Irsyad issue because from the beginning Irsyad did not want to force.

After Irsyad went to take ablution, that was Kila's chance to justify her face. Also her headscarf that her hair wreath that she trimmed.

"I've taken ablution. Now it's your turn" said Irsyad. Kila immediately took ablution after that remark. He did not want to look at Irsyad long ago in a state of wet hair due to ablution water. When looking at the appearance of Irsyad who has taken ablution, Irsyad's good looks increase and Kila is pounding when he sees it.

"God has a handsome husband, really?" kila said in her heart as she moved out of the room. He can go crazy with the good looks of Irsyad which will be shown next. That is when Irsyad wears a complete prayer suit, sarongs with his cocktail shirt and also skullcap. The feeling of being imitated by the handsome priest made Kila's mind unsettled, as well as her heart.

"Huh.., I will finally be officially imitated by Brother Irsyad this time. Bismillah," said Kila moved back after taking ablution. His heart grew more flowery when he saw the figure of a husband who was ready to stand on the prayer mat with the full suit. Seeing it closer like this made a greater sensation compared to when Kila saw something similar before. Again, Kila looked in awe and fascination with the current look of Irsyad.

"It's over, Kila?" ask Irsyad to make sure. Kila immediately put on her face shortly after Irsyad's question.

"Udah, Brother. Could begin. Kila is ready to be a makmum," replied Kila after finishing her prayer suit she was wearing.

"And I was long ready to be a priest. Especially to imitate you. Hahaha," said Irsyad replying with a joke. Hearing that, Kila blushed in embarrassment. To cover it up, Kila covered her face with her cloth. Make the mukena that has been used neatly become a little slanted. Fortunately, Irsyad was already facing forward to start praying immediately, so Kila felt safe because her red face was not visible to Irsyad.

"Yes Rabbi, this day has finally come. Finally, it can be received by the priest. Thank you, Rabbi," said Kila in his mind. Undeniably, being a mum whom Irsyad believes in is Kila's biggest dream. He had expected it so much when the word "Well" had been heard for them. Various kinds of blocking reasons such as coming months or LDR have now been erased. It felt, Kila wanted to cry when she was also so excited.

"All right, I'll start, okay?" said Irsyad when he looked back and saw Kila was done justifying the face that Kila was wearing. And Kila nodded in response, making Irsyad again turn his head forward to start praying.

Ta'awudz and basmallah reading begin. Then Irsyad did his duty as a priest, and Kila as a teacher. Hearing the loud chanting typical of a priest, made Kila's heart tremble. Al-fatihah's reading echoed in the room and buzzed in Kila's ears. The way Irsyad chants the ayatollah still remains the same, and Kila is again fascinated by the beauty of the chant. Just like when I first heard the sad nahawand chant and Kila immediately fell in love with the voice without knowing who was singing it. This time, Irsyad chanted the ayatollah with a distinctive jiharka rhythm with its rhythm that makes people happy as when hearing the good news. A special rhythm with joy in it.

The series of prayers has been completed as well as the prayers that are both lifted. Irsyad turned her back to look at Kila. And Kila understood that, and she came closer and took Irsyad's hand to kiss. Then, Irsyad also landed a soft kiss long enough on Kila's forehead. It feels like Irsyad's satisfaction paid off today. Being a priest praying for the wife is the thing that Irsyad wants to do the most. Recalling the struggle of their love story makes Irsyad touched. He had truly become a full priest by praying, and Irshad was so grateful for that. When the thought of his scent was unstoppable again, Irsyad switched to hold Kila's body tightly. He wanted to channel the mood he was currently feeling. Sure enough, after holding Kila, Irsyad felt better. Kilapun without long replying to Irsyad's response. A moment of silence to enjoy the warm embrace.

"Kila.., thank you very much for allowing me to be your priest" Irsyad said in his speech.

"Yes, Brother. You welcome. Sorry to make Brother Irsyad wait so long," replied Kila gently.

"Aaa, Brother Irsyad, Kila apologize, yes. But Kila also has long wanted to be the prayer makmum Kak Irsyad. And today it feels so relieved that the dream came true" Kila replied. And Irsyad accepted that excuse. The two of them stood up and folded.

"Crazy, we're like newlyweds, huh?" said Irsyad when the folds of his alphabet were almost finished he folded.

"Hmm? Why is that, brother?" ask Kila wonder. Like a newlywed is so excessive, especially they have been married for a long time.

"Yes, this should be done by a newly married couple" replied Irsyad and placed the prayer mat on the table where he was.

"Yes, take it. We've just been living together, too, like newlyweds, right?" reply Kila and following put the prayer mat in its place.

"Hahaha, you're right."

"Kila.., can I say something?" ask Irsyad. He has not finished his activities folding the sarongs and changing his clothes. He chose to say his statement first. And Kila did not take off her face skirt because she wanted to focus on listening to what Irsyad wanted to say. In addition, Irsyad's serious face also triggers Kila to listen seriously.

"When you put on this white face, I saw you when we agreed. You wear white bridal clothing. Really very beautiful, and I am grateful to have chosen to carry out my grandmother's will. I was grateful to you at that time because you were the best girl God chose for me" Irsyad said, staring at Kila with a look of honesty.

"When I saw you, I couldn't wait to graduate from education and immediately want to stay with you. To become a priest and to imitate you as a makmum. Kila, you're so beautiful. Wearing this white face makes you more beautiful. I say honestly from the bottom of my heart" Irsyad continued. Kila who had returned Irsyad's eyes was now bowed. His eyes began to glaze over the words full of honesty expressed by Irsyad. Seeing Kila who was down, Irsyad ended his words with a kiss on the head that was still wrapped in mucus. Then continued her activities of folding the sarongs and changing her clothes, leaving Kila who was still in place.

"Sir Irsyad is also very handsome wearing that prayer suit," Inner Kila. She should have revealed it straight away, but her teary eyes would definitely turn into tears.

"Let's go back to sleep. There is still a lot of time before dawn" said Irsyad after finishing changing clothes.

Tahajjud prayer is done after waking up from sleep. They were forced to go back to sleep after working on it. Irsyad knows the sunnah. Sometimes, when it was so tight with dawn then Irsyad did not go back to sleep. And fill that time gap with tilawah. Surah Al-Waqi'ah is the surah that he used to chant when really mepet with dawn. The size of the mepet for Irsyad is when the murtal at dawn has sounded. Because, at that time he had to be in the mosque to perform prayers in congregation. He always prioritizes obligatory prayer in the mosque. If other sunnah prayers, then Irsyad do without congregation.

Kila who had tidied his face followed Irsyad who had first laid his body back to the bed. It seems, Kila's sleep this time will be decorated with beautiful dreams after the sweet incident just happened.
