Halal Love of the Senior
Halalbihal

Bakda Asar, there began to be neighbors who came to Pak Wijaya's house. They knew that Pak Wijaya had returned home after seeing Pak Wijaya and Adi praying in the mosque. They came to be in touch and pardon with the family of Pak Wijaya, who was usually visited by neighbors during Eid. Mr. Wijaya has been considered an elder (who is elder), because of his position as the chairman of the mosque and a person who is quite influential in his village.

Neighbors usually come in groups with other family members or with neighbors next door. Young people usually come with other young people. The living room of Pak Wijaya is spacious, immediately full if those who come in groups. If it does not fit, someone sits on the terrace. They love to come to the residence of Pak Wijaya, because there are always various kinds of treats, both traditional and contemporary.

Lebaran this time, Mother Hasna did not make a snack because she had just returned home Umrah. However, he had already ordered a snack for his friend. In addition, Dita also brought some pastries produced by her bakeries. A variety of snacks are served on the table with a variety of drinks. Guests choose what they want.

Since they had just returned home from Umrah, this time, every guest who came was given a small glass of zamzam water. Dita and Adelia take turns preparing zamzam water for guests. Later that presents Rendra and Adi. While Mother Hasna prepared souvenirs for the neighbors.

At night, the devotees of Isya, Reza and the youths of the mosque, came to the residence of Pak Wijaya. In addition to being halal, he also wanted to thank you for the donation from Pak Wijaya's family. During the takbir roving race yesterday, they managed to get the first champion. He also invited Pak Wijaya's family to come at the halalbihalal event at the mosque, tomorrow night.

Mr. Wijaya was surprised when Reza mentioned about donations, because he felt he never gave. He did not even know that there was a collection of donations for the takbir event and halalbihalal. Reza then explained about the proposal and donations. Reza told me that it was Rendra who made the donation on behalf of Pak Wijaya's family.

Mr. Wijaya nodded after getting an explanation from Reza. Rendra and Dita never told me that they had donated on behalf of their family. He will thank his humble daughter-in-law.

At 09:30 p.m., all guests are home. Rendra and Adi clean and rearrange the living room and terrace so that tomorrow morning is ready if there are guests who come. Adelia helped Ms. Hasna wash the small glasses used as a container of zamzam water for guests. Mr. Wijaya was receiving a call from his friend, while Dita was in the room, putting Ale to sleep.

After Rendra finished his work, Pak Wijaya called his son-in-law. "Son Rendra, I want to talk."

"Yes, Dad." Rendra sat down near her father-in-law.

"Why not tell my father that yesterday donated to the mosque?" Mr. Wijaya looked at Rendra.

"I'm sorry if Rendra is sassy, Dad. Rendra thought it was unnecessary because he was sincerely donating. Rendra had even forgotten that he wasn't reminded."

"Dad not angry. I want to thank you for representing me. How much will Rendra donate, and I'll change?"

Rendra shakes. "Not necessary, Dad. Rendra is sincerely born."

Mr. Wijaya smiled at his daughter-in-law. "Alhamdulillah. I'm proud of Rendra. I pray that Allah will replace it with a double reward and sustenance."

"Aamiinu. Thank you, Dad."

"Tomorrow to participate in the halalbihalal event at the mosque. Nak Rendra, I also know some residents here. Let's get to know more people here."

Rendra nodded. "God willing, Dad."

"Son Rendra, when are you back in town?" Hasna's mother joined her husband and daughter-in-law.

"Rendra goes with Mas Adi with Dita, Bun."

"Why is this calling my name?" Adi also joined them.

"Mother asks when we return to the city, Mas," said Rendra.

"Kanya deer. Tomorrow there will be a halal event in the mosque, dear if you do not come," said Adi. "Adel also wants to stay at papa's house. If you go home the day after tomorrow can stay there one or two days," he continued.

"Thank God then. So, you can mingle with the citizens here tomorrow." Mr. Wijaya smiled at Adi and Rendra.

"Mas Ren, please take care of Ale for a moment. I'm going to the bathroom" exclaimed Dita from the door.

"Rendra take care of Ale first, Well, Bun, Mas" said Rendra before moving to the room. Because Ale is a rough sleeping position, it must always be accompanied so as not to fall from a high bed. They haven't had time to change Dita's room to make it safer for Ale.

"Where is Adel's sister, Mas?" mother Hasna asked her eldest son.

"Sleep, Bun. His success" replied Adi.

"It's also night, we'd better get some sleep. There will be plenty of guests tomorrow. The front door's locked, Di?" Pak Wijaya looked at Adi.

"It's all locked down, Dad," Adi said.

"Yes, already. Let's go to sleep." Pak Wijaya moved from his seat, followed by his wife and eldest son. They then went into their own rooms.

Dita who just finished cleaning herself, no longer found her family in the living room. The main light has also been turned off, just a small light so as not to dark when going to the bathroom. He then went into his room.

"Mas, have you cleaned up yet?" ask Dita to her husband who is busy with his notebook while looking after Ale.

"No, yet" Rendra replied without taking her eyes off the notebook screen.

"It's late, Mom. Clean first. Tomorrow morning at work," suggested Dita.

"In a minute, dear." Rendra's hand still moves the stylus pen over the screen.

"How long is that, Mom? I take the notebook if Mas does not clean up immediately," threatened Dita.

"Five minutes, honey. Seriously, I promise." Rendra looked at his wife for a while before returning to focus on her work.

Waiting for her husband. Act like a watchdog ready to take the notebook out of the husband's hand. After four minutes had passed, Rendra immediately kept his job. He then turned off the notebook and put it on the nightstand.

"Fin five minutes, my dear." Rendra smiled at his wife.

"Yes, the hunt is clean. I've been sleepy on this," said Dita.

"Give me a kiss, first." Rendra pressed her lips.

"There was no kiss. Clean-up there is a new kiss," said Dita.

"Okay, wait for me. Don't sleep yet." Rendra got up and went to the bathroom.

Dita threw herself beside her son. He rubbed the sweat on Ale's forehead and neck. He had to keep Ale comfortable sleeping and not fussy. She looked at Ale's exact same handsome face as her husband.

"Sleep well, son. We have gathered again with yangkung, yangti, pakde sama bude. Don't fuss anymore." Dita kissed Ale on the forehead.

A few days left by Mr. Wijaya, Ms. Hasna, Adi and Adelia, making Ale often fussy. Either he did miss the four of them or because Dita was feeling homesick until Ale became fussy.

Shortly after, Rendra went into the room. He locked the door before stepping up, getting closer to the bed. He could see the two figures he loved so much lying on the bed.

Slowly, Rendra got on the bed. He kissed the forehead and prayed over Ale's crown. After that he kissed his wife.

Dita who had just closed her eyes, finally opened her eyes again. "Have, Mom?"

"Yes, already. Where's the kiss." Rendra stared flirtatiously at the wife.

Dita smile. Rendra took his promise. Her husband was like a child who always charged that he had promised.

Dita asked Rendra to come closer with a movement of his finger. She smelled the light of her husband's cheeks and lips. However, Rendra is not his name if only satisfied with the lightning kiss. He deepened the link of their lips when Dita was willing to release his lips. There is a struggle of lips and tongue between two people who are always drunk with love. They just released themselves after feeling out of oxygen to breathe.

"Now this is all it was. Tomorrow continues again," said Rendra while rubbing Dita's lips.

Dita smiled in response to her husband's words.

"Good sleep, dear. Sweet dreams." Rendra kissed Dita's forehead before returning to her sleeping position beside Ale.

Early in the day, as usual, Pak Wijaya's family must wake up to perform Tahajud prayers. So did Rendra and Dita who took turns to look after their only son. After Tahajud, Rendra resumed his work which was delayed last night. Dita will not bother if she works after Tahajud while waiting for the dawn. Dita will be teasing if she works late into the night and delays time to rest.

Early in the morning, the guests began to arrive again at Pak Wijaya's residence. This time from friends of Mr. Wijaya and Ms. Hasna. There are office friends, studies, organizations and other acquaintances.

In the evening, they all went to the mosque to attend halalbihalal event. Ale was also present there. He was very happy because there were a lot of children who invited him to play. Yes, although Ale still did not understand, but he always laughed every time someone greeted, so it was fun for people who saw him.

Mr. Wijaya that night was appointed as a showman. She was asked to tell her experience while in the holy land. Perhaps the experience of Hajj is familiar to them, but the experience of fasting and Eid prayers there, very rarely found.

Mr. Wijaya said that fasting in the holy land is more solemn because they are free from daily work and only focus on worship. He shared his experience of breaking his fast with people from abroad. How the people there are competing to feed the fasting person.

Pak Wijaya also recounted the atmosphere of Eid al-Fitr in the holy land that is not like in Indonesia. There takbir victory, just reverberated in the morning before Eid prayers began. There is no halalbihalal event. In general, after Eid prayers they immediately go to work.

After recounting his experience, Mr. Wijaya was also asked to lead a prayer. It is said that the prayers of people who have just returned from the holy land can be heard and granted by God.

After leading the prayer, Mr. Wijaya returned to his original seat. After the event was closed, all those present lined up to shake hands and forgive each other while holding the prophet's loincloth.

Ale's existence quite caught the attention of other pilgrims. They felt anxious looking at Ale's puffed up cheeks and his cute babble. However, they did not dare to touch Ale, as Rendra forbade him.

After a long night of greeting, the worshippers returned to their homes. Instead of going home, Rendra was busy looking for the buttons of his suit that was released because of Ale's pull. Being angry because her husband did not appear even though he was said to be waiting. Fortunately, Rendra was able to find out shortly after the wife was angry with him.

They and their families then went home on foot because the distance of the mosque is not too far from home. They immediately rested that night as the event lasted until night.

The next day, Adi, Adelia, Dita and Rendra return to the city. They returned to their original routine after enjoying a few days of vacation in the village.
