I Found Love With You
14. First Morning

At four o'clock in the morning, Sadiyah woke up from feeling something heavy press down on her chest. When she opened her eyes slowly, Sadiyah was surprised to find herself being hugged by the arm of a man, the arm of Kagendra. Sadiyah was startled and spontaneously distanced her body from the sleeping man's embrace.

“Aduuuh...” Sadiyah fell out of her bed. While rubbing his buttocks that were in pain due to a fall quite hard, Sadiyah immediately went into the bathroom to ablution.

Shortly after Sadiyah closed al qur’an she read, adzan shubuh reverberated. Sadiyah saw her husband still sleeping.

“A, wake.” Sadiyah woke Kagendra while shaking Kagendra's arm.

“A, already adzan shubuh.” now Sadiyah patted Kagendra's cheek.

Shortly afterwards, Kagendra stretched out his arms straightening his legs and arms.

“Hoaaam..

“Build, A. Usually Mang Awan likes to spend time in the mosque.” exclaimed Sadiyah.

With laziness, Kagendra stepped foot into the bathroom to clean himself and ablution. Sadiyah swiftly prepared cocoa clothes, sarongs and peci for Kagendra.

Kagendra came out of the bathroom using only a towel. Sadiyah turned her face the other way in embarrassment.

“Sholatan completeness has prepared.” Said Sadiyah, still turning her face away.

Kagendra wears a sarong, cocoa shirt and peci prepared by his wife. After fully dressed. Kagendra immediately went out of the room. In the family room, Darmawan was waiting for Kagendra to come together to the mosque.

At the mosque, after the congregational prayers, Darmawan introduced Kagendra as the husband of Sadiyah to the worshippers present. All worshippers in the mosque congratulated Kagendra and Darmawan. Understandably, the marriage of Kagendra and Sadiyah was only attended by family only so many neighbors were not aware of the news.

“God willing, the recipe is next month and all citizens here will be invited to the recipe. Forgive if we do not invite the neighbors at the event, because it was attended by family only.”, Darmawan said in front of the worshipers at the mosque.

The pilgrims understood him and were happy with the news of the marriage between Sadiyah and kagendra.

Darmawan and Kagendra arrived home almost six in the morning. Arriving at home, Sadiyah had prepared warm tea and boiled cassava for Kagendra.

“Diminum first A, the tea. It also there boiled cassava is still warm.” Sadiyah offered a glass of fresh warm tea water to Kagendra.

“Still.” Kagendra picked up a glass of warm tea that Sadiyah offered.

“Aa want breakfast with what?” ask Sadiyah.

“Anything, I'll eat it. Origin can be eaten.” replied Kagendra.

“Before A, Come to the kitchen first.” Sadiyah moved from her seat to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Sadiyah helped her aunt prepare breakfast.

“What do you want breakfast with, Neng?” ask Rostita.

“He said anything origin can be eaten.” replied Sadiyah.

“Yes already, this aunt is making fried rice. You make omelet omelette.” said Rostita while continuing to stir the fried rice so that the flavor is evenly distributed.

The atmosphere of the morning was not crowded, there were only six people inside the dining room. Kagendra and Sadiyah, Rostita, Darmawan and their two children. Gilang, Sadiyah's younger brother went to stay at the hotel with other relatives.

After finishing breakfast, Darmawan took Kagendra for a walk on the plantation owned by the Kartasasmita family.

“Ndra, part of this vast estate belongs to Iyah. Amang hopes, as her husband Iyah, you can help keep the treasures of Grandpa and his father Iyah. Not only this land that must be guarded but you are also responsible for the lives of many families who depend on his life from managing our family land.” explained Darmawan.

“Amang and Bi Ita are actually very grateful to your Aki for applying for Iyah for her grandson. Previously Amang was very confused by the fate of Iyah. Many men come to Amang to propose to Iyah, but Amang is not or is not sure of them. Amang was afraid that they proposed to Iyah just to pursue his property. Amang grateful, Aki you contacted us just in time.” Darmawan continues his story.

“When Aki you contact Bi Ita and tell me about the friendship between Aki you and Aki Iyah, Bi Ita and Amang immediately sure to receive a proposal from Aki you.” Darmawan breathed fresh air that morning.

“Amang hope, you will never waste Iyah. Dear her” pinta Darmawan to Kagendra who walks by his side.
