*Nizami's Ibban
"Le, do you know what your Kia means?"
"Lack of understanding."
I'm silent for a moment.
"Opo means your Kiaimu earlier, you were allowed to marry Fizah to, Le?"
"Lhah, ngggeh mboten (yes no). Kan, I haven't said anything, Buk, to Abah. No way, Buk. Wali Fizah is not a family. How could Abah give her blessing."
"I mean Ibuk yo such condoned, later Kiaimu obviously so the intercession to."
I thought Abah Bahar would tell me something. We were invited to Gus Fakhar's wedding. Special invitation. Our arrival is very expected because after that Abah Bahar will connect the conversation earlier.
"Lacking to know, Buk. See it later how. Kadung thought, lhah turned out not like expected."
"Yo wis just any. But, are you sure it's the same Fizah?"
"God willing, Buk. I really liked Fizah for a long time. On the one hand, I want to get to know Fizah further, Buk. There's a lot I want to know about him."
"But not too young, is it, Le?"
"Young problems are not an influence. Stay how he thinks. Buk, as long as Ibuk has sincerely resigned to Nizam, I leave completely. But, if Ibuk still hesitates, I'll think again, Buk."
"Ojo, Leah. I've just any. Than later. You've pantes so Father. I'm already rido."
Phone in.
📞 "Yes. Why?"
📞"Who will be Ratna's guardian?"
📞"Yes don't know."
📞"Seriously don't know, Mas?"
📞"Eh, briefly. What was? Is there no face?"
The voice across laughed.
📞"Hormat."
📞"Mas, meningan you askin' patrem got Mustika."
📞"From yesterday it seems you are really interested in keris? Ratna's theme what is keris?"
📞"Grace. I was just kidding. Maybe you know. When it comes to keris, I'm curious. Why was the patrem given to you. As far as I know if the name is gaman, such weapons do not have to match the owner. I'm afraid he'll hurt Fizah if he's going to give it to her."
📞"Quiet. The patrem is now on Kiai."
📞"Not Kiai Bahar it is also known sakti?"
📞"Continue?"
📞"Kiai Bahar may already know who the most appropriate woman as the new owner of the keris."
📞"Who is that woman? Fizah?"
📞"Look at it later."
📞"I'm looking forward to the next news, Mas. I'm actually also still curious about the reason Mustika gives you his precious object and what is the name of the keris."
📞"I'll call you later."
📞"Ready. Assalamualaikum?"
I answered his greetings after he hung up the phone.
"Who, Zam?"
"That's lo, Buk, Mas Iman."
"Ratna has something to do with that keris too?"
"Mboten (no), ma'am."
"How about talking about Kiai Bahar sekti? How about, Le?"
My mother suddenly wondered. I was also half-confused why Mas Iman suddenly called Ratna and keris.
"You're a yo not too old (old) to, Le. How anyway?"
"Just a few stories I've heard, Buk. His brother Kiai Bahar first, his name if not wrong Kiai Soleh, when building the old building pendopo this cottage he tirakatan for three months. Maybe fasting or something. What is clear is tirakatan. So all of those exchanges are indeed the chosen ones. Tirakatan, then built the cottage. Abah gets a mandate to raise the cottage. Kiai Soleh's scholarship was passed down in part to Kiai Bahar. I mean science that must have its derivatives. Kiai Bahar is the successor. This second generation of Al-Furqan Pesantren caregivers. Most likely Kiai Bahar also has a special science such as Kiai Soleh."
"The pendopony is the mosque, right, Le?"
"Yes, Buk. The renovation process used to be also not arbitrary. Only Kiai Bahar and and some artisans who once built this pendopo pesantren. Some of them are dead and old. The living are called, supplied for a little renovating."
"Well, really, Zam. That's what makes this cottage building can last for generations."
"Yes, Buk."
"What else did you say?"
"Said Kiai Bahar already know who deserves the kris."
"Alhamdulillah. Yes, it means most likely Kiai Bahar also understands who gave the keris. According to Ibuk, this was all planned, Le."
"It could be, Buk. Yes that's natural."
"Aren't you curious, Zam?"
"At the end of the day we'll know everything, Buk. At that time Bu Mini also said Abah Bahar would tell a big secret. Perhaps the special invitation we received at Gus Fakhar's wedding was the time Abah had planned. The best time to tell it all."
"If not what Fizah, Le?"
"Manut, Buk. God willing whoever will accept the patrem, I believe in Kiai. Since the beginning we came there, does not mean we have really resigned?"
"Come, Le. Hope it matches your expectations, Zam. If he's a soul mate, he'll never run away on another."
"Well, who are you? What exactly happened to you? Only after I regretted what I told you, did I realize many things. Why do the wistful in your eyes always greet me indeterminate? Why is the light in your eyes dim when you meet me?" I felt like he wanted to say something, but he tried not to say it.
