LAILA TO KANG ROHIM
EPISODE 9 OF LAILA'S RETURN

Abah Ucup has picked Laila up from the Al Hikam boarding school. When I was coming home from the boarding school. Laila cried as she hugged Ulfa.

"May Sakinah Mawadah warohmah. Don't forget to tell Lai." Reveal Ulfah in a clean light.

For seven years Laila studied at the boarding school Al Hikam. It was so hard to leave the cottage. There are many memories in His memory of the memories of many things. What makes Laila sad may not know when she will return to that place. Given the distance from his village to the pesantren it takes two days and one night.

Laila and Abah Ucup use can be on the way to Sumber Waras. At nightfall, Laila who was not used to the AC felt cold. He wrapped his head in his jacket. He also covered his feet with a sheath.

Abah Ucup glanced at his youngest daughter.

"You will soon be the wife of the mother. May you be the wife of Sholehah. Let your father be happy to educate his one son." Abah Ucup's prayer in his heart.

A song that flowed from the sound of the driver's speakers also made Laila smile because of the lyrics of the song from the band's guardian entitled Find a Match. In the pesantren he never heard music but when to the famous song lecture place it will often be heard through angkot or even in food stalls.

Laila tried to close her eyes under the cold AC that was emanating right above her head. While Abah Ucup sends a message to Waroh's phone if they are tomorrow morning to Sumber Sari.

The next morning, when Abah Ucup was looking for an angkot for him to rent in order to deliver them to Sumber Waras village. From the terminal, it takes about four hours. Laila waited for Abah Ucup in a mosque near the terminal. He also read a small Quran that he always carried and put in his bag.

Without Laila noticing a man sitting right in front of a curtain, the young men heard the voice of a woman who was so quick to read the scriptures. But it is very small, although not clearly heard. But the man could confirm that the woman reading the verses was a santri. He can also make sure if the one who is reading it has memorized his reading. Because of his speed.

"Goddessa... This woman must have memorized the Qur'an."

Rohim quickly came out of the mosque because he looked to the right and to the left no one else. He rushed towards the terrace. He was looking for Mukidi who said she wanted to go to the toilet but never came back. Until following.

When Abah Ucup returned, Laila and Abah Ucup rushed to the car that was ready to drive them. When I left the musholla. The two Laila netra stared at a cardboard box that said "qiber".

Laila who walked towards angkot, still turned her head towards the cardboard.He opened the angkot glass that was beside him. He was curious about the owner of the card. The handwriting on the cardboard is the same as the one behind Rohim's photo. When the car starts running and will leave the place. Laila who was a little surprised because the car braked suddenly. He looked towards the front.

But unfortunately when he turned back to the cardboard lying in front of the musholla, the figure of a man wearing a sarong was covered by a fat mother who was justifying her hijab, so that it looks only the glove of the man who is looking down justifies the cardboard.

"Was he Rohim Abah referring to?" Inner Laila.

"Laila, that was Rohim yesterday asked for a marriage contract event in two weeks. Well tomorrow night he will go to the same house, Mr. Toha. Mr. Toha called. All meeting you. He said he'd have to see you first, let's have no regrets."

"Nggjeh Bi."

[Yes Bi.]

There was a thumping feeling in Laila's heart. He has already got ridho Kyai Ali and Umi Nafi. I don't know why the message from her teacher made you worry. Kyai Ali advised that to live the household it must have a strong foundation. More to serve in society. Then mentally, it must be really as tough as steel. For Laila the message from the teacher was not something that was nonsense but had to be executed and guarded.

He who saw how Abah Ucup now more changed. His brother was when the prayer was only doing obligatory prayer. While picking him up and going home. Laila saw Abah Ucup doing the Sunnah ba'diyah and Qobliyah prayers, which were based on Abah Ucup's explanation. That he got from the study every Friday night from Rohim as a filler material also who led the reading of Yasin.

Abah Ucup even willing every Friday night to go to the village of Sumber Sari because in his village there is no njai teacher like Rohim. Guru njai in his village someone who has been old so that he can no longer be like Rohim who was active there yesterday with the intention of proselytizing.

Unlike the Nurul Iman mosque where, the activities are so dense. After that shajuh there will be cult and dhikr together. Then later after Ashar there will be children who teach. Following the prayer, there will be mothers and fathers teaching. And all handled by Rohim.

When you get home. Abah Ucup and Laila were greeted by Ms. Salamah. Laila men kiss the back of her hand. Salamah hugged Laila.

"Healthy Nduk?" Ask Bu Salamah.

"Let's go in, I'll cook your favorite meal."

Abah Ucup still pays angkot. Arriving in the room, Laila was a little strange because Waroh was absent. Usually, her brother will be in the TV room.

"Who's sister, Mom?"

"Have gone to the course. Just got." Reply to Mrs Salamah.

"Pantes on the phone is Ra picked up." Grunts Abah.

Abah Ucup immediately sat down at the dinner table and sipped his sweet thick coffee.

"This mother is a gift from Umi Nafi."

"Gala... Must be your Nyai Buk. When you come home brought by."

Laila went to the kitchen. He washes his hands, feet and face. When he went to his room. He saw that none of his clothes were in the closet. He doesn't think negatively.

"Maybe what because you're getting married so the same mother moved to another closet"

Instantly Laila sat at the end of her bed. He recalled the handwriting on the cardboard in the terminal.

"Ah.. kok so deg deg is like this." Face blushing. Somehow he who saw the Arabic script written by Rohim was always made wrong until his lips smiled in shame every time he remembered the name.

The same thing happened. On the motorcycle a man who had just delivered a package to his mother was smiling while riding his motorcycle. Somehow the voice of the woman in the mushola was ringing in Rohim's ear. Mukidi who remembers Rohim that he had just crossed the road to their village. He braked suddenly when Mukidi hit him hard on the shoulder.

"Kangs.... Kang.... The wrong way Kang.... Turn Right kang..... Missed kang...."

Remember Mukidi to Rohim. But Rohim was still busy with questions in his mind.

"Astaghfirullah. C'mon Him. You must not despise the heart. Fortunately, I did not follow the intention to see the woman's face. His voice made this much less his face." Inner Rohim.

"Oala.. nglamun Iki must. mentang-pang want to marry..."

"Buughgjh"

"Astaghfirullah's.... What's the matter kang?"

"Suspended Kang?!"

"Astaghfirullah's.... " Rohim pulled over and turned the motor.

"You must marry Him immediately. Let your mind not be wild like this. O Allah may Princess Abah Ucup accept my proposal." Please Rohim in his heart.
