Lembayung Dusk
Three Things...

Dad Dusk

I'm so happy, last night my son Dusk called Federic.. He said that we were invited to my grandson's aqiqah, at his wife's Lembayung house.

Does that mean Baiq and Dusk have opened their hearts and are willing to forgive me?

Thanks God..

What a great gift for my beautiful granddaughter? I immediately told Federic to buy a lot of toys and baby clothes, as well as many other necessities.

My second grandson was named Dewun..

I will give everything for my granddaughter, because my first granddaughter from Alexa is a boy.

"Thank you for inviting us. ", Federic told Lembayung.

And papah Lembayung allowed us to enter, it feels very warm kinship is here. I am not as suble and sociable as Federic, even tend to prefer silence and just pay attention. If Federic can blend in with everyone, I only occasionally chat with guests just to mince words.

The whole series of events I can do smoothly, as his grandfather Dewun. I was given the opportunity to cut a little hair, he said, because previously all Federic explained in detail about the procedure of aqiqah.

I see, Baiq was busy entertaining guests in a friendly manner. Then leaving the room, I followed her silently like a teenager stalking someone I liked. I miss that smile...

But...who is that little boy?

Why look so close to her?

Baiq looks still very suitable to have another child, she is so beautiful and well-groomed. Although now her appearance was already covered, it did not detract from her beauty at all. Even now she looks more beautiful.

Huuh, old man!

What did you expect?

20 Years left him in agony, shouldn't you know yourself?

Mr. Sharif

Mr. Fadli, his papah Lembayung personally asked me directly to attend the aqiqah event of his first grandson.

It is heavy, because it means later to meet his mother Dusk.

In the past, I was rejected by him.

On the grounds that he felt unworthy of being with me, that was all I knew from his son Dusk.

I also with great heart accept, without wanting to force.Padahat, why my heart has indeed been attached to the mother of the Twilight since the first time I met.

Astarghfirullah's..

I should have kept my eyes open, but a little heart can't lie. Not that I have forgotten his ummi Maryam, but, as a normal man and as a father. I need a companion and mother for Maryam.

Why not choose another woman who may still be a girl or with a good past?

Speaking of the past, everyone must have a past, we should all bury deeply into it and live a better life now and in the future.

Pun.. Rasullullah Shallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam chose to marry widows for the purpose of proselytizing and glorifying them. 

Choosing to marry a widow can be categorized as actions that will bring blessings and also gifts for us. Especially if the intention is because of God to protect him from slander or other bad things that might happen.I choose him with good intentions because I want to raise his degree so as not to be underestimated by others.

Is it possible that he is still traumatized?

When talking about the traumatic impact a person has, I also need to know the extent to which this has affected the psychological state of his mother Dusk.

But.. When I saw the interaction between Maryam and her, somehow the feeling of wanting to protect her was so great and I felt that Maryam liked it too. How many times have my parents betrothed me to some girls. I could have accepted if it was a match for me, but.. Maryam could not open herself to them.

I see, now Maryam was in the dining room and was being treated by her mother Dusk. I saw both her eyes were sparkling and joyful when in the bribe.Maybe Maryam felt the figure of a mother in her mother Dusk.

Maryam was raised without a mother, because since her ummi was sick, she began to be cared for by Ms. Tina, still a relative of the mother.

But..

Something a little bit off, though,

The figure of the stranger really makes me wonder, who is he? his face and stature are very similar to Dusk.And also he was accompanied by a man around the age of 25 or 26 years who also looks like Dusk.

Is he the biological father of Dusk?

If that's the case, maybe her mother Dusk has returned together, with a heavy heart it would be nice for me to retreat regularly.

If it was my soul mate..

Allah will open and ease His way.

Twilight

Thank God everything went well.

My little angel is already in the aqiqah..

Now she is with my wife and her friends in the room, they are busy telling stories and chatting.

I was also entertaining guests and saw my father. Maybe now I can already accept calling her father, at mom's insistence. I was watching my mother from a distance....

Hhh..

I was at a crossroads.

Who should talk to? father or Mr. Sharif? mr. Sharif was chatting with papah and other guests, while the father was enjoying the dish..

Alright..

"Senjaa..?? " Dad was waiting, watching me walk towards him.

I was still silent and didn't say anything, I didn't know what to say. Baffled.

Suddenly Rico came, and approached us. Why do I call him Rico?not Federic? I don't know how much better to call him that..

"Senja.. " Say ka Rico while pointing outwards.

I was stunned, the article was not just a handful of toys. But se-truk?

What the helllll?

I became cursed in my heart.

"It's too much.. " I said to the happy-looking father I asked him to speak.

"No a-pa.. " Use it in Indonesian. "Come one's.. We'll see.. "

"Bro.. You have no intention of introducing me with your wife's friend? " Said ka Rico as he walked towards the yard, approaching the truck with lots of toys.

"Ohimself! " I answered ketus.

"Haha.." He just laughed, and began instructing a driver to tell him to take things down.

"Where do you want to keep this much? " Tanyaku wonder, seeing there are swings, slides, houses that incidentally it is a toy for children over 3 years.

"Growns can't use this all yet.. " I pointed towards the kitchen-plane toy.

"For later Dew is already quite large.. " Intensely while taking down some toys.

"Finely, this we give to the children of the foundation only.. "

Father and brother Rico frowned.

"Thas all the children are orphans.they don't have a parents, it's better to give it all to them.and I will only take baby clothes."

(They're all orphans, they don't have parents, they better give them, and I'll just take the baby clothes)

Father and ka Rico finally nodded, and the driver was helped by his friend to return a myriad of toys to the truck. And give a paper bag containing baby clothes.

"Thank you.. " I said lirih.

"I'll do it everything for you son.. " Dad patted my shoulder.

But I just kept quiet without any expression.

"We want pa-mit to go home. padre do you need to talk with Baiq? " Task ka Rico, and only be countered by the headband by dad.

"let us say goodbye to your wife's papah.. " Said again while entering the house and saying goodbye to papah.

I did not accompany and wanted to go behind the house where the foundation children were gathered there.

They were enjoying the dish cheerfully while telling stories. Their innocent faces remind me of when I was a kid. Without parents guiding and protecting.

I miss papuq inaq..Only Papuq was the one who lovingly took care of me patiently.

I remember a poem by an Egyptian poet named Amir al-Syu’ara’ ,

It is not the orphan whose parents are both gone, (None gone) from the life of the world,

And left the child in a state of disgrace.

But an orphan is the child you find

Her mother doesn't care about her or her busy father won't take care of her.

That's how I felt as a child, losing two figures who should have been models and losing parental figures.

I used to feel like a child, just like them.

Being an orphan, orphan or orphan is not only financially disruptive, but also will hit mentally.

Papah tells us that experience teaches us not to forget them.

"Get us empathic again, do not also show happiness in front of orphans, such as inviting orphans or coming to the orphan foundation to celebrate our children's birthdays ."

"Behind such good intentions there may be orphans whose hearts become sad and remember their parents for watching the happiness of the family of others."

"Don't let their tears flow too often. Don't let sadness hold them for too long. Let us together be tear-wipers, blankets when they are afflicted. A little bit of windfall we've given them hopefully to keep the flame of the spirit when they're a piece of lost parents."

Like the word of the Prophet,

"Whoever rubs the head of an orphan (with full affection) for merely wishing for the pleasure of Allah, then every hair that is rubbed has a share of goodness, and whosoever cares/careeth for the orphan, so his position in heaven is by my side as is my index and middle finger."

Papah said as we discussed.

I'm grateful that my mother has changed and it turns out that I was the one who had wrongly thought that she never loved me.

Mom loves me very much. Behind his cold attitude.

And now, father came bringing a little hope.. It turns out I'm not a kid who was dumped.

Well done's.. Twilight.

Learn to love your parents in your own way...

Pray for them at dusk...

Because when man dies, it is cut off from his charity except for three things: alms, useful knowledge and prayer for the child.
