Light For Gus Mu
Chapter 21: Wafi Shafiyah.
”I have also chosen a girl who deserves to be found a man who is much better than me, but I have fallen into the shadow of the girl, drunk because of her name, crazy because of her voice. Let alone his figure, his name alone I heard, I was already smiling. And it is not you Khalisah, you are overconfident, humbling me at will. Self-esteem is the main thing, a woman's self-esteem is her purity. I'd rather go to jail for life, than see a girl snatched away.” Wafi took a deep breath and tried to master her emotions.
”You know I'm an ex-con, why are you still brave and willing to seduce me, disgusting. Everyone knows I'm in jail, but not everyone understands me doing that because of what, because of a woman's self-esteem,” said Wafi weak but firm. Shafiyah lowered her head and she lyricized the girl who was beginning to be aware of all Gus Mu's attitude and attention.
Shafiyah mistakenly thought Gus Mu was a playboy, intending to marry Khalisah and teased him. He misunderstood and felt guilty. The guy likes her and she's the same. Then what about after this? no matter how much Wafi loves Shafiyah, she will lose to a man who is more willing to invite the girl to marry.
Khalisah looked down embarrassed to hear Wafi's statement. There are many people, gossip about his attitude will clearly stick out also pesantren if this is the case, he will not be able to silence everyone there. In his fear, he still raised his head so haughtily.
”Then, who does Gus like?" firmly asked. Shafiyah panicked, she retreated away and Wafi noticed the girl hiding behind the other santriwati, Shafiyah peeked a little and Wafi still noticed her. Shafiyah shook her head, hoping that the man would not point or call her.
”Now is not the time for Habibah, later, I also do not know we can be together or not." Wafi muttered then nodded, asserting Shafiyah's head and her two eyes were closed as tightly as possible. Shafiyah smiled, feeling relieved because the man understood.
”She is too special, her name is too beautiful. To call the lips of this ex-con, who has not been entitled to admit it. I will take him around Pesantren, if we are married, he is halal for me and vice versa,” exclaimed Wafi and all the santriwati meleyot hear him, who is the lucky girl. Shafiyah lowered her head and her veil swung in the wind, until Wafi saw her. The man's lips smiled as Shafiyah continued to hide.
Ima who realized the direction of Gus Mu's weak gaze towards Shafiyah back there, felt happy because she was aware of it. It seems like she's the one who just realized that the girl is Shafiyah.
Khalisah laughed mockingly and Shafiyah stopped smiling hearing him.” Who wants to be with you? ex-con, no future, no friends, shunned, because criminals remain criminals. If the girl wants to, you should be self-aware, you don't deserve her and can't be accepted by her family. The daughter is golden to her mother and father to her brothers. Which family wants to let their daughter go with an ex-convict. Do not dream of heights, later if it falls. Pain.” His lips continued to smile wryly then smirked cunningly. Wafi silently listened to the babbling of the girl, Shafiyah came out of her hiding and Wafi glanced at her. Shafiyah shook her head, hoping that Wafi could still hold back the anger that the Khalisah served was becoming.
”Why silence? view...!” Shouted Khalisah to everyone.” This is what you call Gus?” he shouted loudly and Shafiyah could not take it anymore.
”Gus better go, please!" banish Shafiyah for the common good, she chose not to shortcut that is pretending to expel your Gus from that place. Shafiyah was silent to see both eyes like eagle eyes were now so cute, withered and not excited. Wafi can still hold back when he is despicable, but when Khalisah brings up a girl who is none other than his own cousin. Wafi was crushed, his determination to get Shafiyah suddenly disappeared, hearing the words of Khalisah that fit his reality. She is not necessarily able to get the girl she likes, because of her background.” Gus, please come with me.” Invite Shafi because seeing Wafi is not okay at this time.
The girl stepped away, and Wafi followed, the man stepped next to Shafiyah. The two got further and further away from the crowd, Wafi steps towards his house without saying anything to Shafiyah. Shafiyah silently watched the man who had all-out insulted her cousin and she had not had time to apologize.
”Khalisah,” lirih Chairil raspy. He heard all the mockery that came out of those thin lips.
”This is a misunderstanding, Gus you are not wrong. It's my fault, I'm wrong. Don't be like all of you. That's our Gus, for God's sake. It would not be a blessing to all that we learn if to our own kyai family there is no courtesy and courtesy. Naudzubillah, may we not be like that. Disband, except Khalisah!" ustadz Jaidi's decree dispersed everyone by exclaiming and encouraging them to leave immediately.
Khalisah looked down afraid to see the face of Chairil's wrath.
”You will be in court tonight, no matter how bad someone else is, is it worth talking wildly like that. Asstaghfirullah thing adzim," said Chairil then turned around and stepped away. Khalisah cried and Ustadz Jaidi swerved sharply at him. The girl was just left out and the trial will be conducted later tonight. The problem is strange, not concerning between santriwati and santriwati. But santriwati who has insulted all out a Gus.
Gus, the son of an old woman who is now crying as much as she wants to hear Bayyin tell if her brother is being insulted and become a spectacle of everyone.
”Child umi, find child umi!" scream Raihanah. Bayyin got up and the two were unaware that Gus Mu was gone. Leaving the house without saying goodbye to the state of mind is not okay.
"Gus!" shafiyah shouted. He ran after Wafi who left Pesantren, who would not be hurt if insulted like that. But alas, Gus Mu covered his head with Hoodie's jacket and did not want to see Shafiyah who he could not possibly have. She wanted to be alone, the bus drove by and Shafiyah stared at the departure of the man she loved with tears. Her tears continued to wash over her veil and cheeks.
”Yes Allah forgives all our sins, which have hurt him. Great-grandchildren, and children of the founder and steward of the pesantren until the pesantren continues to run now.” Shafiyah continued to cry. He was sick to see a man insulted like that, especially the man he liked.
”Fiyah!" yelled Bayyin who was about to approach Shafiyah but she fell down. Shafiyah turned around and ran after Bayyin. Help the girl wake up by pulling her slowly, then the other santriwati help.” Where's Gus Mu? where my brother is, I don't want Khalisah still here. I have the authority for my dislike, I want the trial to be conducted as soon as possible and Khalisah's parents called here!” bayyin firmly and everyone is paying attention.
”Go where?” tanya Bayyin and Shafiyah shook her head. Bayyin's cry broke, he cried out and Shafiyah immediately hugged him. Which sister received her brother treated like that, Bayyin so shadowed to his brother who is very proud of Wafi, and proud of his grandfather, to be the next boarding manager. Fahira, Faiza and Faradila refuse to give their children to be the next boarding school manager, as their devotion to the older brother Gus Fashan. They just want their brother's son to be the only one whose attitude of responsibility has been seen from an early age. Discipline in time, and very firm.
At nightfall, the rain fell unexpectedly, as if the sky was crying tonight, because the increasingly wild man was acting, acting everywhere. The earth is getting older not because of age, but because it bears too much of the weight of the sins of men. Compete with each other in various ways, to be the most advanced. Feeling the most superior to forget, everything in the world will not be brought to death, only worship will be accepted. The good is already recorded and can not bargain to get the torment of current actions in the world. Rich and poor will all die together, and often forget in the world we are all just limited to visiting.
Wafi still could not be reached, but the magrib had sent a message to Bayyin if he was in the hangar. And don't worry.
Khalisah's family came immediately, the daughter of a famous kyai, insulting a Gus who was none other than the son of his best friend. Khalisah's father, his friend Gus Fashan. That's why he entrusted his daughter to the Al Bidayah boarding school. Gus Farhan's figure he knows. She was ashamed to hear the complaints against her daughter. If Khalisah does not come out, he himself will drag his daughter home.
”How are you doing?” ask Khalisah's mother Fatimah. The woman continued to cry, unable to bear the burden of Khalisah's actions.
”Good umi,” replied Shafiyah and Fatimah kissed her nephew's forehead. Shafiyah kept letting him.
All the boarding schools sat down, Raihanah sat with a blank look, Fatimah did not dare to approach the Nyai Bu. His figure is very famous, because of his obedience that is so fragrant spread to every area. As wife and daughter-in-law of the Majdi family. A faithful widow takes care of Pesantren after her husband leaves. Honestly, Fatimah herself was very impressed with Raihanah. Khalisah looked down sluggishly, when many students asked him to be expelled, the pesantren who did not accept Gus who was entrusted to them insulted, staring Khalisah alone did not want to.
”I'm sorry,” Khalisah told Raihanah. Bayyin and Afsheen stared at him sharply. As bad as Afsheen behaved to her brother, she still did not accept her brother being insulted by others.
”This is a very embarrassing act, I as Khalisah's father apologized, our extended family apologized profusely to Nyai. To all those who hurt their feelings for the behavior of my son,” Husein said in a hoarse voice and close his hands, seeing his father pleading like that, Khalisah felt devastated.
”We forgive, in sha Allah. No human being escapes error,” said Yemen then Chairil glanced at Khalisah." Our decision is already unanimous, it's about the self-esteem of a man whose youth was spent in prison, during his 8 years in prison, he said, Ananda we Muhammad Wafi Muzammil Ali Majdi never did anything wrong, ananda we are guilty but there is no right for anyone to demean and insult him,” Yemen said back and Husein nodded. Raihanah rubbed her tears that had swollen from continuing to cry. He didn't even I saw Khalisah.
”We have all negotiated, in sha Allah this decision will be the best decision for all. Please ustadz Amran who will deliver." Chairil and Khalisah both watched him closely. But Chairil doesn't care.
”Assalamualaikum warahmatulli wabarakatuh.” Amran Seru.
”Wa'alaikumus Salaam Answer everything.
”Thank you, I have been given the opportunity to convey the results of the deliberations, the results of negotiations together with all parties. I hope this decision is well received and what happened is a lesson for all of us. It is sharper than a dagger, a sharp dagger wound of any depth, as severe as it can be healed by the permission of Allah SWT. But the wound in the heart because the oral is very difficult, hopefully ananda we do not bring this case to the authorities, because our ananda Gus mu can also be sued for unpleasant actions, he said, slander, defamation, and threats,” firmly Amran and Khalisah shriveled in fear.
"From the results of our deliberations, with a heavy heart we ask and expect Siti Khalisah Farihah to go home, to avoid unwanted things, and thank her for her devotion, she said, for his desire to study in our pesantren. Honestly, we asked santri or santriwati to come home was very sad. But because this is a fatal action, it would be nice if Khalisah would accept to go home first and return if we have negotiated again, and depending on the situation here. Thank you very much, wassalamu'alaikum.” Amran closed the black tome and Khalisah's name was recorded there. Khalisah closed her eyes and her tears kept dripping.
Everyone answered Amran's greeting and Husein looked at his daughter sharply. The deliberation
finally, everything came out and Raihanah assisted her two daughters. Arriving outside, Raihanah noticed the sky was so pitch-black, the rain kept pouring down, and the sound of lightning striking each other.
Chairil opened two umbrellas for him and to protect Afsheen and Raihanah. Fatimah who wanted to get close was detained by her husband, both of them had apologized earlier and should now let Bu nyai go. Another time, the Khalisah family had a plan to deliberately come and apologize to Wafi who now did not even exist.
