CHAPTER 22. The Mothers' Prayer to Rania
"Sorry, Mom. She's still in school" Rain politely replied.
"Oh, I thought I graduated from college" said the mother.
"Are you two dating?" ask the other middle-aged woman.
"Well, if you're dating. The lake is handsome and the girl is beautiful," continued another mother.
"Non, pray that you will be a long-lasting mate in the world until the Hereafter" said the Grandmother. The other mothers also guaranteed.
Rain and Rania just looked at each other and could not react to anything, as the mothers prayed for the two of them. Unlike Amira who stood near the two. Sadness gleamed from his eyes. She felt her heart ache when people prayed for Rain to be a match with Rania instead of her.
Rania's face turned sullen, Rain then asked Amira to replace the position of handing over money to the elderly. He took Rania away from there.
"Why is the face sullen?" rain asked as the two sat on a wooden bench under a cherry tree.
"Am I that old. Said to have graduated from college," answered Rania while grumbling.
Rain simply smiled and held back his laughter. The head of her cousin covered in a headscarf.
"Maybe it's because your body is tall, so they assume you're an adult" Rain said trying to comfort Rania.
"Ah, as if Brother Rain was going to say "Nia, your casing is an adult. Fill it up still a kid!" it's the same I just now," Rania replied still pouting.
'It's true that too. You are still a child and spoiled.' Rain only spoke in his heart.
"I never said that. That said that's Ian and Raya," refuted Rain.
"Because, my mood is bad. Brother Rain must take responsibility!" rania's whine was still puffing her cheeks.
"Well, we're looking for good food here!" take Rain and stand up from the wooden chair.
A bright smile began to adorn Rania's face. Rain knew something that quickly restored his cousin's mood.

After being satisfied with the culinary snacks sought by Rania and Rain. I don't know how much food goes into Rania's stomach, the important thing is that she can now be cheerful again.
After the mood returned to good, the two people returned to the sub-district office. The first session was completed. The time of dhuhur was soon, fortunately there was a grand mosque near there.
Umm Habibah invited Rania and Amira to the mosque first because the Adhan was soon reverberating. While in the ablution place, Rania first saw the faces of Umm Habibah and Amira. Beautiful, that was the one in Rania's heart when she saw the two. A bright face glows and is smooth without any stains. The thing that makes Rania amazed is to see the face of Umm Habibah who looks young despite having entered the age of twilight.
The prayer place for women is upstairs, while for men it is on the first floor. After the completion of the prayer. They all ate parasmanan with the staff of sub-district and village employees. The atmosphere of familiarity looks very thick there. Rania likes to be in the middle of them. He was quick to know and familiar with the people who were there.
"Neng Rania is Cep Rain's girlfriend (Nona Rania Nak Rain's lover)?" ask the uniformed woman who is one of the sub-district staff.
"Sir Kades also saw you two eating snacks on the side of the road" said the other.
"I'm sorry, my mothers. Me and Brother Rain are brothers. Our parents were his cousins" denied Rania who was getting upset again.
"Oh, still a brother," the first mother who asked earlier.
"But even if his cousin is so you can get married, you know."
"Yes. You two are in harmony."
Again the middle-aged women prayed for Rania and Rain to be a match. Meanwhile, Rania only guaranteed while holding back her frustration because they continued to tease Rain in Rania's eyes.
Amira and Umm Habibah just silently heard the babbling of the mothers. Amira is really not feeling well. He wanted to go home quickly. Her ears hurt when she heard their prayers for Rania and Rain to be paired.
The process of sharing the 2nd and 3rd sessions was running smoothly. The residents want to queue and according to what asked the sub-district staff. So that everything goes well and fast. Even the forecast was completed in the afternoon, this after the ashar was also completed.
"Kiai Samsul, we say we want to visit other places first," Rain said after finishing delivering them home.
"Cock, hurry home? Don't you want to stay here?" ask Kiai Samsul.
"Sorry, Kiai. Maybe next time, God willing, I'll bring Ian and Raya here" replied Rain politely.
"Yes, be careful on the road!" kiai Samsul reminded Rain.
Rain gives a paper bag to Amira, which contains a book. A very useful book for a woman. The book was titled, "The Rights and Duties of the Wife Against the Husband".
"It's read, yeah! I also read her partner's book" Rain said as he handed her the paper bag.
"God willing, I will read" replied Amira with sparkling eyes. Had there not been a veil covering her face, there would have been a hue on both cheeks.
"I'm good-natured, assalamu'alaikum" Rain said with a faint smile.
"Wa'alaikumsalam," replied Amira.

After saying goodbye Rain and Rania visit Abah and Ummi's house. Again there is something that irritates Rania.
