The journey 9

The last week of the KKN location, they were busy making videos of activities they did that were successfully documented. The video will be displayed at the closing ceremony. But in the last week Zia was not focused. His mind had already begun to branch out between the KKN program and the wedding preparations.

"Zi, why the hell don't you focus so much?" vina asked as they were both in the room. Vina knew Zia a lot of thoughts because sometimes when given the task Zia suddenly slow, not as usual. Vina also knows that during KKN, Zia is also often contacted by the family to prepare for marriage.

"Huh dizzy Vin. My mind is like a split. There still has to be a lot taken care of. While there too, sometimes from boutiques, from jewelry stores on the call when to fittings. Let's finish quickly must fittings first. There's a fear of inappropriate sizes and all sorts."

"Patience yes. Sacrifice for your happy day."

"Yes. Good thing your brother is good Vin, understands. Always say not to think, just focus on the same activities there, that is. Yeah, I'm a little relieved."

"Nice my brother. Don't blame my brother for being my future husband."

"Well, you're his brother, no matter how much you defend."

"Eh, don't be wrong. I am an objective person, Zi. Brother or whoever is closest to me. If he's wrong, I'm not buying it."

"Times?"

"BODOM!" vina ngegas replied.

Today is their last day in this village they are busy preparing for the closing later tonight. Tonight's activities are more festive than the opening because the elementary school children in this village will show a drama show.  While Junior High will show nasyid.  And there will be a video playback containing activities for a full month and there are few responses or messages and impressions of some residents of the program program conducted by KKN students. 

The children here are also very enthusiastic about KKN students. From the beginning of their arrival until today their closure was very enthusiastic to help KKN students.

Tonight's event closes with video. When the video was accompanied by the farewell song of some elementary school children they had taught, there were some who approached them, hugged them and cried. Do not want if the KKN brothers who teach them to go home quickly.

"So why are you here for a minute?" asked Nindy while hugging Zia. This first grade Elementary child was indeed spoiled and quite close to Zia for a month.

"Nobody's been here a month.  God willing if God allows us to meet again.  Don't be sad, you have to study hard. Okay." Okay." Zia said gently so that her answer would not be too disappointing for Nindy the little boy who was currently still at home hugging her.

"My sister will definitely miss my sister miss Vina who is chatty but likes to teach English. Miss Akbar's brother who is fierce but likes to joke. Miss Zia's beautiful sister likes to teach njai.  Miss Nitya's sister who is a rich brink mama Alfi.  Miss Aya's sister whose voice is good and likes to teach singing.  Miss ledekin Yusup brother who likes to play guitar." said Alfi while sobbing, this first-class SD boy is indeed very dean with KKN students. Every day even always in the house where KKN. This cheerful sianak also has a soft and mellow heart. Just look at her sobbing the most at the moment.

"Wilma's sister won't miss you?" tanya Wilma teased Alfi because he was not mentioned by Alfi.

"Huaaa Alfi dear sister Wilma too. Brothers don't go home" said Alfi, crying and hugging Wilma.

"Ah crybaby." plucked Yusuf while scrambling Alfi's hair.

"Belvin. Yusuf's brother was dating Zia's brother" he said, pulling in the liquid from his nose.

"Alfi kak Zia sama bang Yusuf is not dating.  Yusuf's brother's girlfriend is in Bandung.  If Zia's sister says she wants to go out with Alfie, can it?" akbar said trying to melt the atmosphere so as not to be too sad.

"But Alfi is not yet big.  Brother Zia is already big, brother Zia wants to wait for alfi until later the big Alfi continues to have a big house. And Alfie doesn't want to date. Said his mother alfi fiercely. Alfie can't date. Later Zia's sister married Alfi if Alfi was big yes." said Alfi. They were greeted with laughter by all of them.

"Wah brother Zia keburu old dong if so" said Zia pura kel and sad.

"Sister Zia don't be sad. If you are old, Zia's sister is still beautiful." she said while wiping her tears and approaching Zia. Making Nindy who was beside Zia frown.

Vina was cool to record the incident, since Alfi who thought Zia was dating Yusuf. Then Alfi who claimed Zia beautiful and Alfi who invited Zia married.

While the others were still laughing laughing at Zia and Alfi. 

Tonight Zia and her friends are not sleeping, because they have to clean up the former event last night. Then have to pack their things up because the bus from the campus is coming tomorrow at 09:00.

"Huh I'm really sleepy." complained Vina while putting clothes in a suitcase.

"I'm done. I rest first huh." said Aya who had finished beberes.

"Cock fast?" ask Zia.

"Yes, I've been sickening from yesterday."

"Wuu cheated you Aya." protested Vina.

"Belgirina yey. I want a beautiful bobo first. Mumpung is still at 2 o'clock quite bobo until dawn. Babay. The spirit of some of my friends." said Aya as she pulled the blanket and closed her eyes.

"You don't sleep with Zi? Not tired?" ask Vina.

"Don't ask Vin. I don't see my eyes are like zombies. But yes want how, rather than later not finished-completed that we are left."

"Leave us to pick up with Brother" said Vina.

"He thought your brother was unemployed."

"Haha, that's not it. But surely he'd want to if he had to pick up a future wife."

"Stt Vin." said Zia putting an index finger on her lips while looking at Aya, afraid Aya heard. Zia hasn't told me much if she's getting married. Let the invitation speak.

The next morning before they came home they took the time to take a photo together in the courtyard of the village hall with the kades and the community leaders. 

At 09:00 the bus that was in charge of picking them up had arrived.  They each got on the bus. On the road almost everyone uses time to sleep. Not so with Vina. He is busy with his phone. Until a notification from Arvan who asked him where to make Vina's mess appear, Vina remembered the video last night. He sends a video of a child who, if he grows up, will propose to Arvan to Zia. 

On the chat

Veneer

'Look Bang Brother has a rival. He also wants to propose to Zia, if he is already big he said 😜'

Arvan who just entered the room was a little surprised to see the video of Vina's submission.  It was almost an emotion.  But he laughed after playing the video.

Arvans

'It's a good thing that Abang Lamar first 😂'

There was no more interaction after that Vina who was tired of choosing to fall asleep and Arvan returned with her work. 

At 14:00 they had just arrived at the campus. Zia's been asking Rivan to help her pick up.  And vina she was picked up by alvin.

Zia who did not sleep last night and only slept on the bus, plus was coming the first month of the day. It feels so weak it doesn't feel good.  On getting off the bus and seeing Rivan zia, he walked over to Rivan and hugged him. Not just miss. But Zia felt she needed to prop her body up so as not to scratch. Vina walked over to Alvin and hugged him. If Vina, this is true because of heavy longing. Rivan stuffed Zia's luggage into the trunk while Zia was already sitting in the front seat and looked very limp and a little pale.

"Good grandfather, right?" ask Rivan reassuringly.

"Why not bang just lemes aja last night adek not sleeping plus more adek coming months" replied Zia explained. 

Arriving at Rivan's house that could not bear to wake Zia, just lift her and put her to sleep in the room.

"What's the reason why I was raised?" ask your mother when she sees Rivan holding Zia.

"What's bun is just a kasian brother.  I think it's a great sauce, it's not gonna wake him up." replied Rivan. Mother nodded in understanding.

"Yaudah bun brother to work again huh. Assalamualaikum." pamit rivan while kissing mother's hand.

Zia is awake. Even though it still looks weak and pale. Currently she is eating a fruit salad that she made herself.

"Assalamualaikum." the sound of greeting sounded from the direction of the door. This must be his father who just came home.

"Getishalight." Reply Zia and Mother from the dining room.

"Well, I'm home.  Healthy right? How pale?" ask Dad while kissing Zia's hair.

"Alhamdulillah is healthy. Adek is just tired." replied Zia while smiling at her father.

"Dad want to drink first or clean first?" ask Mommy.

"Clean-clean first deh bun." Answer Father.

"Yaudah, you'll bring her warm tea to the room." Mother said.

Dad walked to the room. In the middle of enjoying an endless fruit salad. Hp zia rang indicating there was an incoming call turned out to be the call from the boutique where she made her wedding dress. Zia was upset, in her heart 'Can I rest for a while don't be terrorized by this and that.'

On the phone

Boutique: Assalamualaikum with Zia's mother?

Source: wa'alaikumsalam. Yes, my own mother.

Boutique: Here mbak this dress is already 70% think you can not if tomorrow mbak equally mas here fittings first.  Seen in accordance with what is desired. You see, I haven't fittings at all. Same with all of you, too.

Zia sighed.

Zia : Alhamdulillah is almost done, huh mbak?  Well later I try to ask first mbak hope he can too.

Boutique : Oh yes mbak. Thanks though. Assalamualaikum says.

Zia : Equally Mbak. Wa'alaikumsalam.

After receiving a call from the boutique Zia tries to contact Arvan.  Eh but Zia thought again embarrassed, if he contacted Arvan first. It's better if Zia calls her brother.

On the phone

Rivan: Hello Assalamualaikum what's up?

Location: waalaikumsalam. Brother is the same brother Arvan is not? 

Rivan: No deck. Arvan again visit.  What's up, emang?

Zia: Can I send a message?

Not yet answered rivan saw arvan coming in. 

Rivan: uh this Arvan there's a deck, just came.   Just sec. (Rivan hands over his HP to the arvan.  Then sit back at his desk.)

Arvan: Hello Assalamualaikum.

Source: wa'alaikumsalam.

Arvan: If there is a need to be the same brother why not call my brother directly?  Brother shut it down. You try to phone brother, instead we have to learn to get used to communicating well? (arvan speaks softly)

Zia : Yes sorry.

Arvan has told Zia many times if there is a need to just contact Arvan. But Zia always goes through an intermediary. Actually good also Zia's intention, maybe so that they do not communicate too often directly. Tap Arvan tastes for discussion of marriage problems is not pleasant if they talk through an intermediary.

Arvan: Yasudah Assalamualaikum.

Location: Waalaikumsalam.

Arvan hands Rivan's phone.

"So soon Zia said she wanted someone to talk to" Rivan said

"Yes, I told you to call me directly.  Learn to get used to if later married will pass through the middleman continue?" Answer Arvan calmly.

"Haha still shy shy of her Ar.  I'm sorry hehe." said Rivan.

"Father what. It is precisely seen that he is very careful not to communicate excessively with those who are not his muhrim." Answer arvan

Not long after Arvan sounded.  It wasn't wrong that Zia's phone came in.

"Wife-to-be" Arvan told Rivan.

"Compense."

On the phone

Arvan: Assalamualaikum

Source: Wa'alaikumsalam

Arvan: Well that's dong. We learn the same later if we are married we will not talk using intermediaries continue.  What was? He said there's something to talk to brother about?

There Zia felt a wrong way. For some reason, but intense communication like this always makes Zia embarrassed and misbehaved.
