Season 2: eps 41.

In the house of Ustadz Ridwan.

“Assalamu’alaikum.” Say Zara and Zayn simultaneously.

“Wa’alaikumussalam.” Ustadz Ridwan, Ustadzah Amina and Arumi.

Zayn kissed the back of Ustadz Ridwan's hand. Zara also kissed the back of Ustadzah Amina's hand as well as Arumi's.

Arumi just smiled without saying a word.

“Nak, this is the guest we are waiting for.” Ustadz Ridwan on Arumi.

- *Flashback* -

Arumi started to open her eyes slowly. He watches around her. He was lying on the bed and around him the paint was white.

“As I recall, I was in the car.” He murmured in his heart.

He moved his fingers. Everything was stiff, numb as if numb.

“Whose home?” Ask in his heart.

Arumi tried to stand up many times because she wanted to find a homeowner. But unfortunately he was unable. His body was very weak and felt stiff.

Not long after, Mary went into the room.

Arumi and Maryam looked at each other in the eye.

“Hah?” Maryam shocked. He rushed out of the room and went to meet Abi and Umminya.

“Ummi, Abi.” Shouted Maryam as she ran towards the kitchen.

“Ummi.” Call Maryam because in the kitchen there is only Umminya.

“What's the matter, baby? Why scream like that?” Ustadzah asked Amina gently but also in panic.

“The aunt is awake. Come Ummi quick view.” Take Maryam while pulling her Umminya hand.

“Ma Shaa Allah, Alhamdulillah.” Ustadzah Amina Sumringah.

The two of them went into the room and met Arumi.

“Alhamdulillah you are aware, son. How are you doing now? Which part hurts?” Ask Ustadzah Amina lovingly.

“Emm. emm.” Arumi wanted to say something, but her lip muscles still felt stiff.

Ustadzah Amina and Maryam looked at each other.

“Meet Abi, Son. Ask Abi to contact Dr. Arman.” immediately The Ustadzah Amina Command.

“Good, Mi.” Maryam. Then he went to look for Ustadz Ridwan.

It was not long before Ustadz Ridwan appeared.

“In shaa Allah soon Doctor Arman will arrive.” He spoke to Amina Ustadzah.

Ustadzah Amina nodded.

They were both waiting for the Doctor in the living room. While Maryam accompanied Arumi in the room.

Ten minutes later Dr. Arman arrived. The three of them immediately entered Arumi's room.

“People who have been in a coma for a long time, when siuman is not immediately able to move their limbs like normal people. Besides still in recovery condition, it happens because the muscles shrink.” Said Dr. Arman explained after he finished checking Arumi's condition. “Otot that shrinks because it is not moved for a long time then it will first be difficult to move. This disorder is called muscle atrophy. No need to be forced, just slow down.” Further.

Arumi understood and nodded slowly.

Everyone was relieved after hearing the explanation from Doctor Arman.

They let Arumi rest until morning.

As Adhan dawned, Arumi began to try to move her body. Thank God you can move like a normal person.

He got out of bed and came out of the room.

Ustadzah Amina saw Arumi and approached him.

“Nak, want to pray dawn?” Ask Ustadzah Amina.

“Iya, Mother.” Replied Arumi softly.

Amina Ustadzah smiled and then took the face for Arumi.

After finishing the morning prayer, Arumi sat in the guest room with Ustadzah Amina and Maryam.

“I am where?” Ask Arumi.

“You're at the pesantren, Nak.” The Ustadzah Amina.

“Why can I be here?” Ask again.

“Oh.” Arumi nodded.

“Assalamu’alaikum.” Ustadz Ridwan returns from the Mosque.

“Wa’alaikumussalam.” The three of them simultaneously.

“Alhamdulillah, you can already get out of your bed.” Ustadz Ridwan on Arumi.

“Alhamdulillah, Sir.” Arumi Sahut.

“What's your name, Son?” Ask Ustadz Ridwan.

“My name is Arumi.” Answer Arumi. “I am so grateful to you and Mom who saved my life. How do I return this favor?”

“Do not feel indebted to us. Because we have been paid Allah with reward, In shaa Allah.” Ustadz Ridwan.

“Alhamdulillah, Father and Mother are very good.” Arumi said. “If I could know. How long have I been here?” Ask.

“More less than one month three weeks.” Answer Ustadz Ridwan.

“What? Already that long?” Arumi looks shocked mixed with sadness.

“Qodarullah Yes, Son.” Ustadzah Amina Sahut.

“Oh yes, one week ago there were pesantren alumni who came here. Looks like they know you. In the Lord I will tell them that you are already human.”

Arumi nodded and did not ask much more.

After that Ustadzah Amina and Maryam served food and they immediately had breakfast.

After that Ustadz Ridwan had affairs so he forgot to contact Zayn. It was in the afternoon that he remembered and immediately contacted Zayn. He tells her that Arumi is dead.

-*Flashback done* -

“They are the guests you told me about?” Ask Arumi.

“True.” Ustadz Ridwan replied as he nodded slowly.

“But I don't know them, Sir.” Arumi.

“Sorry, Aunty does not know us.” Say Zara softly. “But does Aunt know Om Amir?” Ask.

“Bang Amir?” Arumi scrunched his forehead.

Zara and Zayn nodded.

“Muhammad Amir Fahri?” Ask Arumi again.

“Iya, right.” Sahut Zara's.

“Of course I know him.” Answer Arumi slowly. Then his face lowered and there was a deep sadness.

“Aibi.” Zara moved to sit next to Arumi. He gently stroked Arumi's shoulder. “Auntie, should Aunty be married to Om Amir?” Ask Zara slowly and gently so that Arumi does not become more sad.

Arumi nodded then shed her tears. He hugged Zara and let out all his sadness along with his tears flowing down.

Zara, Zayn and Ustadz Ridwan patiently wait until Arumi feel calmer.

Ustadzah Amina prepared lunch for Zara and Zayn.

“Hiks. Hixes. Hiks.” Arumi wiped her tears. “Sorry, I feel very sad. I can't control my grief.” Further.

“Does Auntie mind telling us?” Ask Zara.

Arumi nodded her head many times while wiping away her tears that were still flowing on her cheeks.

Zara and Zayn looked very curious.

“But, how do you get to know Bang Amir?” Ask Arumi.

“I Zara. I'm nephew. And this is Bang Zayn my husband.” Zara introduced herself and Zayn.

“Oh, so.” Arumi nodded. “May I know how it is now? Why doesn't he come with you?” Ask.

“Emm, that's because..” Zara's words were interrupted and she looked into Zayn's eyes.

“How is this? Aunt had just calmed down after crying for a few minutes. If I told her about the married Om Amir, she would definitely cry again.” Zara murmured in her heart.

Zayn seemed to understand Zara's worries.

“Emm. Sorry, Bi. Can we have lunch first and then tell the story?” Zayn asked permission politely.

“Oh, can. Sorry, I forgot you guys must be tired too.”

“It's okay, Bi.” Zayn calms Arumi down from feeling guilty.

“It is better to be left to eat first so that Bibi can calm herself. If sad continuously chances are he will drop again.” Zayn said in his heart.
