Betting Love Above Destiny
The 30 End of Hope

The atmosphere of silence after a brief sounding Hamdalah reading from Shaykhona. All silence awaits, what will be the word of Alhasyimi's great nanny.

The next moment, KH Abdullah Umar Hasyim stared at the ranks of the hooded girl sitting not far to the left.

"Which one, Madina Shafa?"

He asked in a soft, yet very clear voice.

The owner of the name is stuck. He seemed unprepared, when khitob talks kyai pangasuh it is him. In addition, he was also surprised by the question, considering he himself who had given him the award as the winner of the race almost an hour ago. Meidina's lack of courage over her sense of her nature, made her three colleagues give a warning signal.

"Ee Dhalem." Meidina answered in polite language even with a voice that was almost unheard.

"Can we just get a first-place champion?" That's a question from Shaykhona. This is a question that is asked not through ignorance. But it seems more on a signal, that what will be said has to do with the victory achieved by Meidina Shafa.

"Remember," said Meidina politely.

"Go here sit down!" sheikhona's decree pointed to a place closer to him.

Again Meidina Shafa was shocked by this so he did not immediately respond to the order of the sheikhona. Ustadz Rahman immediately got up to allow the girl who looked hesitant to move to a place closer to the shaykhona, as he had just asked Meidina.

At that moment, Zaskia looked up to steal a glance at Arafka who was sitting very close to the sheikhona. And it turned out that handsome young man was anchoring his gaze completely at Meidina who had now moved to sit closer to sheikhona.

"Thank God, many grateful, son. Many are grateful," lead the nanny kyai to the nearby ayu girl.

Meidina nodded and immediately expressed gratitude in the heart along with haru. Because the word "son" used by kyai nanny towards him, it really feels very soothing soul.

For a moment he said nothing more. The others waited quietly. They now understand that there may be important things that will be conveyed by him to Meidina. Remembering that girl who was called to approach. Then what is it. The momentary silent atmosphere opened the opportunity for them to start speculating, before then Shaykhona clarified each of their allegations with his firm and careful remarks.

"Yesterday, with kyai Fadholi and kyai Mushtofa ..." He paused his speech for a moment to point with a hand gesture at kyai Mushtofa Tamimi, who was seen nodding politely. "We went to visit Kyai Muhajir in Darul-Ulum Jember" he continued.

Hearing this, Davina looked up to steal a look at Meidina who remained down.

"By being ushered by Kyai Muhajir, we went to Madina Shafa's parents' house" he said. All the words spoken by him were not directed at one person, but to all who were there. However, now almost all the views present are focused on Meidina Shafa, following what was conveyed by the shaykhona just now.

They are all almost one in question. Is there any way he who is noble would visit Meidina Shafa's house? For a noble person of the caliber of a great caretaker who has thousands of students like him, it is certain that in every action, there is a hidden meaning, even every visit, there is a stored purpose. Thenwhat?

As for Meidina herself, she chose the safe path. Instead of guessing and wondering, he considers the visit of the nanny kyai to his house as a great gift that should be grateful. He is noble to visit his small and remote gubug with type 3S as well (very simple). He just hopes, himself and his family will get blessings, from the visit of kyai who is believed to be a person close to his god.

"Madina Shafa." And this time, KH Abdullah Umar Hashim only directed the talks to Meidina only.

"Dhalem." Meidina answered politely.

"My coming to your house, in addition to your prayer, we also intend to give you a sermon."

Meidina Shafa felt her breath as blocked by the sentence that was only addressed to her. And suddenly his body was like shaking, his heartbeat felt increasingly fast and irregular. A moment later, cold sweat poured out.

Khitbah, Arabic sentences that have the meaning of proposal, or proposal. Everyone must have understood that. Until now they looked at each other in wonder, and asked each other in silence.

Kanza Davina even looked up, venturing into the eyes of Shaykhona. Just looking for the belief behind what has been said by him, whether true or not. However, Davina found nothing but a sense of reverence when she saw that calm face, which seemed to radiate a dazzling glow of majesty. The sweet girl looked back.

So, for whom did Kyai big nanny propose Meidina Shafa?

Starting from Kyai Muhajir, it was clearly mentioned by the shaykhona just now that he was as an introduction to the Meidina house, in addition to the distance of the Meidina house which is not too far from the Darul-Ulum pesantren, he said, ayu girl was also a teacher at the boarding school owned by Kyai Muhajir. So it can be ascertained that the sermon is not within the scope of the Muhajir family. (When the son of Kyai Muhajir, Rayyan Ali Fattan, there is currently a promise of love with Meidina Shafa)

The second Kyai is Kyai Fadholi, the alhasyimi branch's stakeholder. He had a son, Ahmad Ali Fadhlan, and a daughter, Zaskia Ariva, a friend of Meidina herself in KM.

Kyai Fadholi's son is still alone and has no wife.

But if Meidina's proposal was for Ali Fadlan, she should be a sister, Zaskia knew that. In fact, the fact that Zaskia knew, if her brother had a promise of love with Kyai Hamdi's daughter Umar-his sister kyai big babysitter-which has been admired by the whole family. They were just waiting for their son and daughter to pass S2 first, before advancing to the marriage contract.

So, it can be ascertained that the proposal is not within the scope of the family Kyai Fadholi.

Third, kyai Musthofa Tamimi. He was not even blessed with a son. All three of his daughters are beautiful girls who grew up to become outstanding daughters in the scope of education in Alhasyimi.

Sheikhona himself, Kyai Abdullah Umar Hashim. His first daughter Ning Karimah, was married to a young kyai who had a major boarding school in Madura. And Ning Karimah became a First lady there.

The second son of the sheikhona who is known as the last son is Ahmad Izzatil Fanani, the crown prince Alhasyimi was married to the daughter of his teacher in Makkah, about a year ago, and now the young couple still lives there, to deepen their knowledge together.

So, there is no loophole to speculate if the proposal is for the families of the kyai who come to visit Meidina's house. Except when with a little bit of thought when the sermon on Meidina was for the self of one of the kyai present. But, it felt like this conjecture, was too forced. Because in all the families of the Alhasyimi masayikh there is no one who taaddud Zauji, or married more than one.

Moreover, sheikhona himself who seems reluctant to talk about halal law is conditional in Islam.

So, who is this bet for?

The silence of the shaykhona after delivering the sermon, as if intentionally allowing all those present to speculate and opinionate with themselves. In that, he looked at no one, while the little prayer beads in his hands continued to move incessantly. The tension also becomes.

While Meidina Shafa, it felt like his entire body had been drenched in cold sweat from earlier. But he still chose to wait. Looking forward to what Shaykhona will say after this. He kept trying to calm down, despite his heartbeat like an active explosive that would soon shake everything.

"Muidina Doc." This time the nanny kyai called the girl ayu with a more familiar name, like a father to the child, which turned off the assumption that the possibility of the application was for himself or both kyai others.

"I am preaching to you, to my son, Irfan Arafka Wafdan."

Very clear that sentence. Very well spoken by Shaykhona. Firm, even without word emphasis. The sentence which was a great power that was able to pull Meidina's head up to look up, and looked at the grand face of the kyai as if in disbelief. But he did not repeat the sentence again, to convince Meidina and all who had heard it. All of those who returned were made an incredible shock.

Ustdaz Widad and ustadz Fadil after having looked at each other in wonder, they then both turned away from Arafka who sat not far from Shaykhona.

The handsome young man looked calm in silence. There was no expression that could be read from him. There was no change in his face from the first moment he arrived. The young man seemed ready to hear this news, so there did not seem to be any surprise. It was seen from his straight gaze and did not lead to anyone.

As for Kanza Davina, he grabbed Nabila's hand because he was so distrustful and amazed at what he had heard. Even the girl blamed her own hearing as if she was no longer able to function properly. The girl felt misheard, and misheard.

Nabila was also no less surprised, he repeatedly looked at Uztadz Widad with a signal for explanation. But the one who was stared at also felt the same shock and also felt like he knew nothing.

Zaskia Ariva, the girl

Already mafhum with the word of our nanny who is respected. Everything was clear to him. Kyai Abdulloh Umar Hashim in giving the decision, never repeated the sentence twice. No one can change every decision they make.

Zaskia's tears fell, when she realized this was happening. This was the end of his hope for the owner of the handsome face whose name he had always set. This is the end of every prayer in a form of pinta for Irfan Arafka Wafdan.

The pain was suddenly felt by the girl until it felt bone-piercing. However, with all his might, he tried to control himself. Trying to stay calm even though it feels like being stabbed by thousands of knives.
