Love Sholeha
Laughter that disappeared instantly

After praying together, Sholeha and Bu Nur had dinner together. After persuading each other to eat, initially Nur's mother who did not want to eat because she did not taste and Sholeha who refused because she reasoned to have eaten. But the two agreed to eat together even a little. There was a plate of soy sauce chicken and a bowl of sauteed kale, both of them eating without speaking. Bu Nur finished his meal first from Sholeha, after he took his medicine Nur bu remained sitting with Sholeha.

" Let's add Nduk's rice, I'm ready to eat yes" Nur's mother smiled at Sholeha who was seen eating voraciously.

" Sufficient Ma'am, Leha had also finished eating" he replied as he cleaned up the dirty dishes, he did not forget to publish his sweet smile.

" Inu actually does not like chicken, but since Sholeh wanted to go so the mother masakin chicken soy sauce for him, he likes to bring provisions from home he said Inu cooking makes him excited if work." obviously to Sholeha, she smiled happily.

" Did Sholeh like chicken soy sauce Mom?"

" He likes Nduk, not the important voters he eats" he said"

" Oh yes, ma'am, "

" But I know she doesn't like eggplant very much, but she still eats it if Inu cooks it."

" Mas Sholeh didn't talk about Mom?

" Sholeha, she cares too much about Mom, so she doesn't like to bother about things like this, sometimes the confused Mom faces Sholeh like that, she's too obedient to Mom"

" Mom is just fine, Mas Sholeh is a good boy, "Sholeha smiled.

" Later you also know what he is like" Bu Nur looked at Sholeha fixedly, channeling his happiness to Sholeha.

"Mother always prays that Sholeh can make you happy like she made Mom happy, she is a person who sometimes likes to be silent not to talk if there are many problems, she feels too alone all this time nduk, "

It seemed that sadness suddenly came between his smile.

Sholeha touched the back of Bu Nur's hand patting her gently. Sholeha just smiled not dare to promise anything to Miss Nur, too early if she had to say ready to fight together, but she just recovered from her wound, fearing getting sore if too forced.

" Mother prayer is the best, Ma'am" Sholeha tried to calm down.

Seeing from the attitude of his mother who loved Sholeh so much, he felt like Sholeh was very caring for the feelings of Nur ma'am.

" You can definitely accompany Sholeh later Nduk, I really hope you can share and be happy together."

Sholeha assures Bu Nur's prayer.

Because the night is getting late, Sholeha takes Nur's mom to rest. Arriving in the room, Nur asked Sholeha to sit with him for a while.

" Nduk Ibu ndak nothing, you can rest anywhere, there is a guest room next to Sholeh Nduk's room but I haven't settled it for a long time empty, how about you sleep in Sholeh's cleaner room,

Sholeha quickly cut off Nur's mother's speech

" Mom, Sholeha wants to sleep with Mom if you let her". Sholeha's down."

Actually Sholeha can not sleep alone in a foreign place" he added.

In fact, Sholeha had been agitated at the thought of how she could sleep in Sholeh's huge house. Don't forget she's a scared girl.

Ms. Nur smiled, though,

" I think Sholeha who can't sleep with Mom, I certainly don't mind if Sholeha wants it like that, come here Nduk mom can accompany you "

Sholeha looked back at Bu Nur

" I'm sorry Mom, Sholeha can't even be relied upon like this,"

" Sholeha, this mother is healthy, there is no need to take care of this and that, we better get some rest this evening!"

Sholeha nodded, then filled up next to the bed and prepared to sleep.

Both of them looked back at the darkened ceiling of the room. It turns out that Sholeha can not go to sleep like Nur's mother even though it was long enough after Nur's mother told a little story before actually falling asleep.

In addition to telling Sholeh who often goes like this, he also tells a little about the figure of Sholeh's father who loves him very much.

Bu Nur until a little shed tears when telling the story earlier, he said a little miss. Her husband who left when she was young made Nur very lost. Bu Nur even said that before her husband was sick they had planned to go for Hajj after Sholeh finished college, but what to say if Allah had willed. Until now the wishful thinking of going to Hajj together is still very vividly remembered, when Sholeh said he would take her away but Nur's mother was still not willing.

He did not tell further, there may be a desire of its own that Sholeha does not have to hear at this time.

Bu Nur also said that if Sholeh never once introduced a woman to him, according to Bu Nur only he who immediately fit in the heart of Sholeh.

Although the story in this section slightly makes Sholeha feel happy but somehow she does not believe if Sholeh never likes someone. Even he himself had not felt if Sholeh liked him.

So far they have realized that the purpose of this relationship is to make their loved ones happy.

Sholeha could not be closed, the room was dimmed by the sleeping lights, making him a little dare to open his eyes. Seen by Nur's mother who fell asleep turned her back, the back that was so calm made Sholeha want to hug him if it was her own mother.

Amid the various daydreams Sholeha heard a notification ringing from her phone on the dresser, she grabbed it by slowly rising from the mattress so that Nur's mother did not wake up.

The name appears, Who loves the Ring on the screen of his phone. He also saw a clock that still showed ten o'clock.

(Where is mother?)

Sholeha smiled, she was very touched to see her loving attitude towards her mother.

(Mother's well, she's asleep)

After the message was sent Sholeha put down her phone, about to sleep but was heard again the message notification this time was heard twice repeatedly.

(Thank you for accompanying

(Tomorrow I'm back.)

Sholeha felt that if Sholeh was too worried about Bu Nur, she understood Sholeh's attitude. Didn't want to delay he immediately replied to Sholeh's message.

(Just take it easy, good mom, and

what matters is be careful when

go home later)

It is felt that Sholeh will not reply to his message again he returned to the bed to prepare for sleep. Hopefully he can sleep well and not misfortune as usual in his house. Before he completely closed his eyes Sholeha again ascertained Nur's mother by touching her forehead, she recalled Sholeh saying that her mother had a fever. Nur's body temperature was normal, after Sholeha was sure there were no symptoms of fever she decided to go to sleep immediately.

****

Like an alarm in his head,

Sholeha awakens when the dawn of Azan reverberates. He was looking for Nur's mother who was already awake first.

It was not bad luck, but she still lost quickly to her future mother-in-law. He turned on the lights, walked out of the room. Sholeha saw Nur's mother come out of the bathroom, her face was wet with ablution water.

" Want to accompany Nduk? " Bu Nur is indeed too sensitive to the timid Sholeha.

" No, Sholeha is brave" her smile was too forced, she was old enough to go to the bathroom by herself.

He smiled knot

" Mom first then" left Sholeha alone.

The coldness of the ablution water made his eyes open completely. Eliminate the traces of drowsiness that so tangled on his eyelids. Sholeha hastened her affairs in the bathroom. Before his bad thoughts thickened in his brain and scared himself.

When he arrived at the prayer room Bu Nur was sitting on the final row, Sholeha held a prayer mat next to his right.

Having morning prayers in the middle of his bed and the silence of this big house adds to the fervor in the very different dawn prayers for Sholeha.

Not long after he ended his dhikr clothes and some short prayers that morning, Sholeha rushed after Nur's mother who was already in the kitchen. Sholeha approached Nur's mother who was slicing onions and chili.

" What do you want to do? let Sholeha go on" Sholeha was about to snatch the knife from Nur's hand.

" I made fried rice for a while, Nduk, still hunted if only fifteen minutes wait!" he glanced at the clock hanging above the kitchen entrance.

" Mom didn't bother, Sholeha didn't go to work that early, and Sholeha still had time to help Mom" she smiled lovingly at the figure of the mother who was very attentive to her.

After arguing, the two decide to finish together and have breakfast together afterwards. Seasoned with a little small talk, Ms. Nur also told me a little about Sholeh who often went to the city although rarely to stay as today. He would not have expected to know if Sholeh was also a spoiled man who did not like to eat spicy. And often cry over his dead fish.

Bu Nur said, if Sholeh used to often ask his father to keep small ornamental fish, sometimes the small fish often died, as much as the fish died as often as he cried. At that time, Sholeh was ten years old. Sholeha had laughed at Sholeh's silly attitude, she must have been big at that time. As soft as Sholeh's heart he said in his heart.

" Mas Sholeh crybaby ya Bu" his laughter was slightly restrained.

" It was so easy that he cried, but the fish was a lot, died one day just crying" mother added and Sholeha continued her laughter until it sounded to fill the entire kitchen room.

" Surely his face is funny Ma'am" he still chuckles.

Then came Sholeh's voice, and Sholeha was silent without looking back.

" Mom can't tell a good story" she approached and reached out to greet her mother.

" Oh, God, how come you're going home this early?" bu Nur was also surprised.

" It turns out that Sholeh can't be much like Mom, so Sholeh comes home soon" she replied, hugging her mother like a child.

Sholeha was scooping fried rice into the plate just silently did not dare to see the friendly scene that made him also happy and a little deg-deg right.

" We'll have breakfast then!" take bu Nur.

" Yes Sholeh wash his hands first" he approached the water faucet beside Sholeha standing.

" We have breakfast...." Sholeh invites Sholeha. Sholeha just nodded.

Everyone had been sitting around the dining table, with one plate of fried rice each. Without a longer story they quietly enjoy fried rice made by Sholeha.

Sholeha turned quiet ever since Sholeh arrived home, somewhere the laughter that sounded so crisp earlier.

Sholeha pamit home after finishing breakfast, but Sholeh forced to take Sholeha home. But Sholeha vehemently refused without being denied.

" It's already bright Mas, Leha can go home alone. Mas ndak not underestimate Sholeha like this dong, I brought my own motorbike and also mas just returned home driving your own car tired Mas, Sholeha ndak want to trouble."

Sholeha's reply was firm and even impressed this time, Sholeh could only be silent and reproduce.

After saying goodbye to Nur Sholeha's mother came home at half-time.

Even his face was a little sullen because he had an opinion with Sholeh earlier. He admitted that Sholeha this morning was a little embarrassed for laughing at Sholeh earlier, but he was also angry and offended by Sholeh's attitude towards him.

Hem

It seemed that Sholeha was just being embarrassed at the man who suddenly appeared and disturbed her laughter.
