Light For Gus Mu
Chapter 17: Working

Upon Wafi's proposal, and Raihanah's approval, Shafiyah was brought back to their home and waited until her family arrived, because her grandfather Shafiyah had left immediately to see her granddaughter's condition. Wafi chose to leave, because Khalisah also took part in evacuating at his house, whereas Raihanah said, Khalisah can continue its activities and Shafiyah will be well guarded.

”Aduh hiks,” cries Shafiyah broke while trying to eat but the condition of her lips was not supportive, she was in the first floor room of the house, Afsheen helped her drink and Bayyin noticed, the situation is not supportive to move swiftly.

”Sabar yes, slowly,” Afsheen tried to comfort and Shafiyah kept crying.

"Rest,” said Bayyin and pulled the blanket, Shafiyah laid her body which now feels sore, sore and sore. Meanwhile, he had not felt anything, and now his wounds were stiff.

”Let me take care of Khalisah" said Afsheen and Bayyin nodded, the girl left because Wafi said he wanted to talk. Raihanah was cooking, Bayyin stepped out slowly. He sat down and shortly Wafi walked out of the mosque and stepped towards his house.

Bayyin smiled and Wafi sat down." How's he doing? we just take him to the hospital" Wafi and Bayyin shook their heads.

”We wait for his family first, Shafiyah says his parents are out of town, his brother's grandfather is coming,” said Bayyin and Wafi nodded." He couldn't eat, his wound was getting swollen. Bayyin knows what to worry about, but he's just our protege here, for the rest of the decision let his family be alone" he said gently and Wafi smiled.

”I marry you this way, look can not, touch especially, God. Kok even more afraid yes Shafiyah first dikhitbah other men, but I have absolutely no provision to guarantee his life now. He's even the son of a rich man, stupidly you Wafi has thought far. All I have to think about, I was accepted or not.” Wafi muttered and then took off the pecans, looking down in confusion.

”Aa like Shafiyah?" ask Bayyin.

”Yes, I don't think about marriage yet." His rebuttal was quick but the look on his face did not seem to refute. His lips even smiled with Bayyinah's question.

”Fiyah is young, still in college.” Trying to understand.

”Ya biarin, if he wants mah, serobot aja neng,” said Wafi who was very crazy about Shafiyah, even though he said he liked the girl just yet.

”Aa aging if make Shafiyah." Cibir Bayyin with a smile, Wafi mendelik not like the words of his sister that.

”One year or two different mah yes it is okay,” he said casually.

”Different 9 years aa, Shafiyah only 19 years aa already want three heads. Are you sure you want to fight?” said Bayyinah and Wafi who just knew clearly shocked.

Both Wafi's eyes rounded to hear it.” 19 years, you're lying right?" accusers annoyed.

”Dih time lie si.”

Wafi scratched his temple. He thought the girl was mature enough to get married, turned out to be underage and two years old was only 21. From Shafiyah's bulging posture, no one thought the girl was still a dozen years old.

”I think 24 years ago gitu.” In his thinking so, not because Shafiyah looked old, but the girl did not look like a girl her age. Perhaps because Wafi did not know what kind of face Shafiyah was, that was why she just arbitrarily concluded.

”Kan aa used to say don't want the age is too far, Shafiyah is too young.” Tipping off Wafi's remarks as a teenager. Wafi didn't care, if Shafiyah she wouldn't give up.

”Ah no problem, if the woman Shafiyah, can be discussed well, can not be anymore but it does not matter.” He spoke so firmly.

”Hemmm not necessarily Fiyah want to be the same aa." Ejek Bayyin and Wafi pinched the back of his sister's hand was upset, Bayyin grimaced and controlled his hand.

”Don't be so dong, make desperate people know then.” The Wafi and Bayyin protests chuckled.

Wafi reached into his pocket as his hape shook, an incoming call from his boss' men. Wafi immediately raised and said his greetings, Bayyin was silent and Wafi's face looked sad when he was asked to return to the sanggar, Wafi glanced into the house, staring at the door of the room that became Shafiyah's resting place. It's tough but he has to take responsibility for his work. Moreover, his boss was very good.

When he finished, Wafi put away the hape he had brought close to his ear.

”Aa want to go again?" bayyin's voice was hoarse, he was always happy if Wafi was around. Feel safe and awake.

”Iya, I borrowed money to buy umi medicine yesterday. This month I have to replace it, only this month bayyin, I want to stop. Stay here with you guys, umi likes to be reckless, I can't see umi keep working.” Wafi said while stroking the head of his sister, Bayyinah smiled happily at him.

"Shut don't be noisy. Maybe Shafiyah is sleeping.”

”Sorry sorry, I'm grinning. Finally." Bayyin continued to smile and Wafi invited him in, Wafi had to leave immediately, but it was still afternoon. He won't be using a motorbike.

Bayyin sat on the sofa and watched Wafi go to the kitchen to say goodbye.

”Eat first." Raihanah.

"Udah six times umi tell me to eat, I'm fat later.” Wafi grabbed one bakwan and sat down. And enjoy.

”Liar healthy.”

”Umi I'm leaving now yes.”

Raihanah instantly turned around.” Said tomorrow?” Raihanah sad.

”Can't, mang Rahmat already phone earlier. I can't take a day off carelessly.” Persuade Wafi and be silent as his shoulders are gently swiped.

”Yes, bring food yes.” Raihanah smiled and Wafi nodded.

”I get ready first,” said Wafi and got up from his seat, he washed his hands and went to the second floor.

Once ready, the food box was already in the bag, Wafi left. He kept turning to his house and he turned to meet Chairil. Chairil was silent as the man approached towards him.

”Where are you?" ask Chairil.

”Job again," replied Wafi with a smile and Chairil nodded his head.” I want to ask for help.”

”What?" ketus Chairil.” I was busy" he said, then left and Wafi stared at him sharply. Wafi was confused as to who to ask for help, Ikhsan was not around. He turned and saw Rama, his son Ilham and Zaenab.

”Rama!” calling him while raising his hand, Rama smiled and stepped closer to Wafi who was also stepping towards him.

”What Gus?"

”Your father is there?”

”Again,” replied Rama and Wafi getting confused.

”Look, I have to go, while there will be male guests coming, I am afraid of inflicting slander, there should be men waiting for my family." Wafi finally blunt. And Rama listened well.

”Later me, ustadz Amran same Ridho who take care of Bu nyai and all Gus. Calm down.” Rama smiled widely and Wafi was pleased, but he was disturbed when he heard Amran's name. Amran fought with him a lot.

”Amran is still here?" wafi and Rama asked.

”She just got home from out of town.”

Wafi looked over at his house. He immediately imagined Bayyinah, Bayyinah would never be married by Amran, but Amran who already has a wife does not get the blessing of the first wife and Raihanah herself warned Bayyin not to just accept a proposal, but Amran, bayyin's condition is indeed flawed, but that does not mean Raihanah can release her daughter to just any man. Even though Amran he knew well, but if to be the second Raihanah did not want, let alone the physical condition of Bayyinah, he was afraid of being the subject of the mockery of his first wife Amran. Though from a long time ago, Amran put his heart to Bayyinah.

”Then I tipped yes, thank you in advance. Assalamu'alaikum.”

”Wa'alaikumus Salaam. Careful Gus.” Replied Rama and Wafi waving his hands as he continued to step up.
