"Oh yeah, what's up with Rizky, Cha?" ask me on Icha.
"Say, can you or don't want to chat Aura?" say Icha.
"As far as he is, Cha. If you want to chat yes tafadhol." I replied.
"Ok deh, then later Icha say the same Rizky."
"Good, Cha. Let's go to sleep, Aura is already sleepy." ask me.
"Ok beautiful. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumussalam, Cha." I said.
After I finished chatting with Icha, I closed my eyes.
The morning prayer woke me up from sleep. It doesn't feel like it's morning, I rub my eyes to reduce my sleepiness.
I went from my ribaan to the bathroom for abudhu' and performed two rakaat dawn prayers.
But it turns out Mom woke up earlier than me. Mom is in the bathroom taking ablution'.
I sat down for a moment and leaned against the wall, waiting for Mom to come out of the bathroom.
"Lho, Brother. Why are you sleeping there?" mother said and woke me up, it turns out I slept a while here.
"Huh? Sleep on? No, Madam. Mom is waiting for me to come out of the bathroom. Brother wants ablution'." I explained to Mom.
"Oh, yes, I have. Cepetan wake up, later Sister in the wind long sitting on the floor."
"Okay, ma'am." I said, then I went in the bathroom.
After finishing performing the sunah rawatib prayer and the dawn prayer of two rakaat, I also began to meditate on him.
"Oh my God, what should Aura do? What kind of attitude should Aura give so that later there will be no misunderstanding again? Aura did not want to hurt and be hurt. Please revoke her wish if she is not Aura's soul mate Allah. Aamiin Allahumma Aamiin."
I don't want anyone else expecting me to be his wife before we're really partners.
"Mom, I don't think Aura's 25 years old. Is Aura too old, Mom?" ask me Mom.
"Two? Not old. What's the matter, Nduk?" ask Mother.
"Yesterday Aura there was a grimace to our neighbor who said Aura was an old girl, Mom."
"Astaghfirullah, bad words should not be listened to and should not be put into the heart" said Mother advised me.
"But there really is, too, Mom. Mother was married at the age of 18, Sister Mea married at the age of 23 years. Then Aura is now 25 years old still does not want to get married.”
"Where's the problem? Getting married is not about age, but about readiness. If Aura is not married now, then Aura is not ready. Because God will give Aura a soul mate when Aura is really ready to get married, not because of the age that has been so." said Mother softly. "Mom can't believe no one wants to be like this beautiful, smart and pious Mother's son" she continued.
"Want to exist, Mom. But Aura hasn't met a match yet, hasn't met the same clop."
"Yes it's okay. Better to get married late than to choose the wrong life partner, son."
"Yes, Mom. Mother's right." I said.
Indeed, what I am worried about is not the age that is getting older, but who is the right man for me to choose to be my priest.
There were indeed many options before my eyes, but I was still afraid to determine. Determining things for the future is no joke. What's more, I have to spend the rest of my life with him and serve him.
In my life, I only wanted to get married once. That's why I have to be able to choose the right person, not carelessly.
In choosing clothes, I was very careful and thorough. What else to choose a friend of life semati and sesyurga.
"Tin!!" gawaiku. "Rizky." my inner. I opened the new chat column.
"Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh" he wrote.
"Wa'alaikumussalam warahmatullah wabarakatuh." I reply.
"Thank you Aura for returning my chat" he said.
“Customize it, Ky. No need to say thank you."
"Did Aura not recognize me?" tanyakanya.
"We are a pesantren. I even know Icha from the boarding school."
"Isn't he? Sorry I don't remember at all."
"Have you ever heard of Rizky Mahesa Putra?" askinya. Only then do I know who he is.
He is my senior and Icha, only one level apart. When we entered first grade Tsanawiyah, Rizky was second grade.
Rizky has a very melodious voice. He often won MTQ and Adhan races. Because I won too many times, I had even forgotten how many medals and trophies he had earned.
He read the Qur'an with tartil, even the master of taranum. Who am I to him, just a crumb.
"Oh yes. Ever. Sorry Bang, Aura mentioned the name."
"It's okay. Why do you remember me now?"
"Aura only knew the name of Brother, but never knew the same person. After all, a few years have passed, Aura has forgotten." I said frankly.
"Oh so. But I never forget you" he said.
"Why could that be?" manya curious. Somewhat strange too, why also never forget, but never know.
"Because I ngefans you. Secret admirer is that." obviously.
Kyaaa?? A person as great as him ngefans the same crumb as Aura? I feel like I'm fainting, God.
"Abang is kidding. How could Abang ngefans be just like a woman like Aura."
"Well, is there something wrong with Aura?" tanyakanya.
"Aura mah is just a crumb of tengginang when compared to Abang." I replied.
"Who said Aura would be compared to Abang? If Abang wants to be juxtaposed with Aura, hehe."
Holy jeezoo!!! He gombalin Aura O Allah. Don't faint, don't faint, don't faint, please don't faint.
"Aw Bang, suddenly Aura's eyes were myopic. That's the last sentence that doesn't read." I said.
"Hahahahahahahahh." Reply.
Long is very hahahanya. He laughed there. I don't know what else to reply. Let it go.
"Your eyes are funny too, Ra. Asik was also invited to chat." after ten minutes passed, he sent another chat to me.
"Thank you, Bang." I answered briefly.
"Ra, can I ask you something?"
"By Bang, tafadhol."
"What kind of Aura's dream husband?"
"How is it? Hurmm, Aura does not choose Bang, if indeed God gives a liking in the heart of Aura that leads to that person, then Aura will accept that person." I explained.
"Is there anything Aura likes?"
"Balum, Bang."
This brother, new also know but the question has been that much, but he just said he just wanted something, uh even the urgency.
"I belong to the criteria that Aura wants or not?" ask again.
"Wow, Aura can't answer that yet, Bang." I replied.
"Yes it's okay. This is my last question."
"What is that, bang?"
"Can we meet?"
Whaaatttt??? He wants us to meet.
