"Why don't you ever tell me, Vina, that the truth ..." Meidina slashed her own words to just catch her breath. From this it can be seen clearly, if what will be conveyed after this is the thing that makes him feel claustrophobic. "That's actually between you and Ra Fattan that's been betrothed a long time ago?" continued Meidina without taking a look from the sweet face of the friend.
"What?!" Davina was shocked, completely shocked. He looked at Meidina as if in disbelief.
"Who said that? There's-there's just," said Davina interspersed with laughter while shaking her hand. As if stating that what is said by Meidina is just a joke that is far from the truth.
"Don't lie, Davina. Umi you yourself said all that to me," Meidina said with a deep look. Kanza Davina was silent. And then quietly shake. "There's no way auntie could have made a lie to me, right?" added Meidina with a voice that was getting drowned.
"When did Umi say that, Meidina?"
"So."
As mentioned at the beginning, this morning, Hj Mutmainnah-euminya Davina came to Al-Hasyimi branch along with her mother Fitrotin to visit Davina. Notabene KM schoolgirl who currently lives in a guesthouse in Al-Badar nature studio, is santri Alhasyimi-branch. They were only temporarily placed there, because the KM student guesthouse building was being renovated. So when any parent or guardian wants to visit his daughter, they keep heading to the Alhasyimi branch. So their sons who were in the nature studio guesthouse would come to meet them there.
Meidina had also met uminya Davina and bu nyai Fitrotin, but only for a moment. Because the girl had training at Al-Hasyimi center. The distance between the Alhasyimi branch and the center is about 1 and a half km. And in a distance far enough when taken by foot, there is a mode of transportation rickshaw motorbike ready to take the students with a very cheap rate.
This type of transportation does not belong to the pesantren, but belongs to the general public which is a close neighbor of the pesantren. Kyai nanny gave them permission to operate in the pesantren area, with the condition to follow the rules of pesantren and all students.
And also the driver of the motorcycle rickshaw can not be under 40 years old.
While the location of Al-Badar Nature Studio itself, is in the middle between Alhasyimi center and branch.
During his visit this morning, Nyai Fitrotin was very attentive to Davina. In fact, he also applied the wound medicine to Davina's wounds on the part of her arm that had begun to dry. All of that did not go unnoticed by Meidina herself and Hj Mutmainnah.
"Alhamdulillah, Vina. Thanks to your prayers as well, Fattan has been declared a graduate, soon she will graduate" said Ms Nyai Fitrotin.
"Yes, Miss Nyai. Thank God," greeted Davina with a smile.
Understand now Meidina, that it is true, Miss Nyai Fitrotin who has informed Davina about the exam Ra Fattan some time ago. Which makes Davina do riyadhoh for the success of the handsome young man.
With an uneasy feeling, Meidina got up from her seat and walked out of the building that used to be a meeting place for students with her parents. It turns out that generally Davina followed the steps of the girl ayu. Be they are now sitting together on a wooden bench with a variety of small talk about the daily activities of Meidina and Davina in Alhasyimi.
"Auntie, Miss Nyai is very considerate, same Davina," Madina said a moment later, in the chat, in her heart she felt jealous to see the attention of Nyai Fitrotin to Davina, as well as the outflow of his longing that was shown to the sweet girl. Though both of them taught at Darul-Ulum and did not meet with Nyai for a long time. But, Nyai Fitrotin's attitude looks "more" on Davina, rather than Meidina. Meidina is currently in a relationship with Ra Fattan. What can be said, if he is the forerunner of Nyai's mother-in-law, who should get more attention. He gave it to Davina.
Uminya Davina smiled with this question from Meidina. And he said as he looked towards Nyai Fitrotin and Davina. "Hisai Fitrotin kangen
probably the same son-in-law."
"Ee I mean Auntie?" meidina asked softly with a thumping feeling.
"Davina was already betrothed to Ra Fattan from a long time ago," Davina's reply was.
Seeing the shock on the face of his daughter's friend, Hj Mutmainnah so astonished and immediately asked. "Don't you know this, Meidina? Did Davina ever tell you that?"
Meidina Shafa was only able to shake her head, and was unable to speak. His eyes immediately glazed over. But, the girl restrained herself as much as possible so as not to cry in front of the uminya Davina.
Unlike the present, when he ended the story, the clear tears had already fallen on his face as he looked up at Kanza Davina.
"Is that true or not, Davina?" ask her in a soft voice as it restrained the sobbing.
Davina was silent, she even turned her eyes away.
"I'm sure for now you won't have the heart to lie to me, after enough secrets you've hidden," Meidina said again in a trembling voice.
Davina was struck by that speech. And guilt also rushes.
"I'm not hiding anything, Meidina. Yes, I admit, there was talk of that matchmaking. But, that was before," Davina said in a hoarse voice.
Meidina Shafa was silent, she just stared at Davina, waiting for what the girl would say next. Because he knew there were still many things behind his words, especially about
Davina's marriage to Ra Fattan.
Kanza Davina is the only daughter of a wealthy family who is quite well-respected in her village. Father Davina-haji Thohir - a famous philanthropist, diligent infak, fond of charity. He did not hesitate to spend his wealth for Islamic broadcasting and public facilities. And among other social gait is to become a regular donor for the construction of the Darul-Ulum pesantren from the beginning of its establishment until now.
And it is also known that it turns out that Haji Thohir is a friend of Muhajir since the pesantren first. Nyai Fitrotin and hj Mutmainnah are still related. Maybe because it is based on this, as well as several other reasons of course, make the two families decide to match their sons and daughters. Davina and Ra Fattan.
At that time Ra Fattan was still sitting in the third grade of Aliyah Madrasah. The young man who is known to obey does not necessarily accept or reject the match. He made a wise decision by asking tough until he finished his S2 education first, then after that he will give a decision. And no one objected to Rayyan Ali Fattan's decision, nor did Kanza Davina.
During that time, even until now there has never been a private conversation between Davina and Ra Fattan, related to the problem of arranged marriage. Likewise with each other's families, until the agreement between the two families is not known by others, except close relatives only. Therefore Davina felt no need to tell about the matchmaking that she considered not Qoth'i was to Meidina Shafa, her friend.
Qoth'i means definite, complete and absolute.
"I'm honest, Din. That's what happened" Davina said, looking deeply at her best friend.
"And now, Ra Fattan is still not winning his master's degree, but he has made his choice with you. For me this is very clear and clear. Ra Fattan and I have the same right to continue or break the match. Between us there is also no attachment at all, so indirectly the matchmaking agreement is no longer in our eyes" said Davina in a definite tone.
"Simple that?" Lirih Meidina with a bright look.
"Nobody will question our decision, Meidina."
Davina then grabbed his best friend's hand and said, "don't be prejudiced. Your love and Ra Fattan don't deserve to be separated by anything." The sweet girl then embraces her best friend with tears falling. Meidina Shafa also shed tears.
