Loving You in Prayer
The Part 23
Tonight Alfan returns to his public home, because the Umi will hold dinner with his family. Alfina was also invited to have dinner together at her uminya home. Before going to his uminya house he will pick up Alfina first because of the order from the umi earlier.
He drove his car to where Alfina worked, of course he knew because his future wife was working in her general place. He promised that when Alfina became his wife he would try to meet her needs and would probably forbid Alfina to work in her common place.
"How did you react when you found out that I was your childhood best friend whom you always call Kak Al". Alfan said in his heart
When he reached the place, Alfan immediately got out of his car and went into the store owned by his uminya to find Alfina and bring her to the house of the umi because he was invited to dinner with her
"Assynoga". Greetings Alfan when entering the place
"Vaalaikumussalam". Answer the cashier
"Can I help you sir?". Ask
"Please call Alfina". Flat Alfan speech
"Good sir". Answer
The woman in charge of the cashier immediately sought Alfina's whereabouts because she was sought by the boss's only son. He immediately approached Alfina when he saw Alfina was displaying clothes at the end.
"Assalamu'alaikum". Salutations
"Waalaikumussalam". Answer
"You're looking for someone in front". Said
"Who's mbak?". Ask Alfina
"Sir Alfan, son of umi Laila". Answer is relaxed
"You're doing mbak". Ask Alfina again
"Bak don't know, quickly samperin gih you know the son of Umi Laila is very cold". He answered while shivering in horror
"Yes mbak". Answer Alfina
Alfina immediately finished her work and then met Alfan in front, because she did not want Alfan to wait long.
"Assalamualaikum sir". Greetings Alfina when she saw Alfan sitting on the sofa
"Vaalaikumussalam". Answer is short
"Mom why are you looking for me?". Ask while looking down
"I'll take you to Umi's house". Answer is flat
"But I have a bike sir". Reply doubtfully
"Your laptop can be put here". Answer
"Okay sir, I'll take the bag for a second". Said Alfina pasrah
"Hm". Reply Alfan
Finally they both went to Laila Umi's house using Alfan's car. Of course Alfan will not let his future wife set out on her own with a motorbike, as much as possible he should protect her from now on. Because anyway he and Alfina will soon hold a marriage contract.
Alfina, who was sitting in the back, was always watching the road from the side window of the car. He likes to see vehicles that pass by on the way anywhere. Enjoying the trip is part of the last memories together with his parents even though in the journey there is a deep sorrow that could break his spirit in life.
"Tomorrow we'll fit the wedding dress". Alfan's words that spread Alfina's daydream
Alfina looked ahead and asked Alfan "What time is it?".
"Tomorrow do you have matkul?". Ask Alfan
"There's a pack at eight in the morning". Answer slowly
"All right, we'll fit her clothes in the afternoon". Prattling
"Yes sir". Answer Alfina
"Tomorrow after returning from campus we will immediately leave". Alfan
"Are you with Umi sir?". Alfina asked timidly
"Why?". Ask
"Are you afraid to be with me?". Continue Alfan
Alfina was confused, actually what Alfan said was true. He was still afraid if he had to be alone with Alfan. Moreover, his lecturer was the type of person who was flat and firm.
"No sir". Answer slowly
Alfan nodded, he looked at Alfina who was sitting at the back while looking down. He knew that his students were still hesitant and afraid to face him. Sometimes Alfan also sees Alfina's cheeks that meet red if nearby or accidentally look towards him. It's funny according to Alfan
Now they have reached the house of Umi Laila. Alfina immediately got down from Alfan's car and walked behind Alfan with her head down. Alfina did not expect if she returned to the home of Umi Laila and abi Lukman her future father-in-law.
"Assynoga". Greetings Alfan and Alfina
"Vaalaikumussalam". The answer to the middle-aged woman was none other than Umi Laila
"Your God has come". He hugged Alfina
Alfina who got a hug from umi Laila immediately returned her embrace tightly. He is very comfortable when hugged with Umi Laila, maybe all this time he also missed the figure of a mother.
"Darling you must be tired son, sit down first let umi make a drink". Umi Laila said
Alfina shook her head "Alfina is not tired of umi". Answer slowly
Umi Laila who saw Alfina looked gloomy and asked because Umi Laila knew there must be something Alfina wanted to say to her.
"Darling you why son, what during the trip was the son of Umi did naughty with you?". He asked who did not care about Alfan who was beside Alfina
Alfan who had seen his general attention to Alfina was then upset because he was not cared or greeted with uminya. But in his heart Alfan is grateful because the umi really love Alfina who incidentally is his own wife.
"Dear to say same to umi son". Umi said Laila was worried because she saw Alfina who was just silent
"Mom can Alfina hug umi again?". Said Alfina softly while looking down in fear
"Maa Shaa Allah may love". Answer umi Laila
Hearing the answer from Umi Laila made Alfina directly hug her tightly while holding back her sobbing that came out. Alfina now misses both her parents who have died because of an accident, especially she misses her mother. Let her be said to be crybaby and easy to cry by her future husband, the most important thing now is that she just wants to be near the Umi Laila.
"Sorry umi, Alfina just misses mommy". His words were softened in the arms of Laila Umi
Umi Laila who heard Alfina say such a word was made sad and moved because Alfina was missing her best friend. Umi Laila as gently as possible gives peace to Alfina so that the daughter of her friend does not grieve anymore.
"Dear you are patient, son, I know how you feel. You must continue to pray for your father and mother. Now there are umi and abi that you can consider as your own parents, as well as umi and abi who already consider you as their own biological daughter. Especially now that you are the future wife of the son of umi, umi and abi love you very much son". Umi said while stroking Alfina's head
"Thank you for accepting Alfina well, Alfina is also very fond of us". Alfina replied while breaking her embrace
Alfan who was still there was made anxious with the behavior of his future wife. Look now Alfina's face is so cute with puffy eyes, a flushed nose, and cheeks that meet. Perhaps still embarrassed by the situation just now, Alfina again hugged Umi Laila hide her face.
"Umi Alfina is ashamed". Say it slowly
Although Alfina spoke quietly but could still be heard by Alfan who was beside her. Why his future wife is so adorable, if they are halal then Alfan will kiss all parts of his face that are so funny.
"Astaghfirullahaladzim". Say it in the heart
"It's okay baby, is there any shame in having your future husband?". Umi Laila
Alfina shook her head in the arms of umi Laila, she was ashamed that now her cheeks had turned red. After he had if until the lecturer knew. Shame, thought Alfina
"Yaudah now we have dinner first yes, umi know that you must be hungry". Umi said Laila while stroking Alfina's cheek
"Ofragrin umi". Timpal Alfan short
"Maa Shaa Allah would like to forgive us for being very worried about your future wife. Umi knows that Alfina is having a lot of thoughts about the mummy, she must calm down first. In fact, if you are hungry, you can eat the shirt first there is also bread that can be eaten first while waiting for umi". Answer umi Laila
"Whatever umi"? Answer Alfan briefly
"Let's love we have dinner first, umi has made your favorite food". Umi Laila
"Thank you, I'm sorry Alfina's been bothering umi". Answer
"No trouble at all, son, because you are the daughter and future daughter-in-law of Umi". Reply umi Laila
When she reached the dining table Alfina immediately sat down in the chair beside Umi Laila. He was happy to finally feel the love of a mother. Alfina was very grateful because Umi Laila so loved her sincerely.
"Darling to get the food?". Ask umi Laila
"Abi and your future husband have already brought baby. Umi get it?". Umi Laila said
Alfina nodded funny "Yes, thank you". Answer
Again and again Alfan saw Alfina who was so funny in his eyes, especially now he sat facing his future wife. Nana's never changed since she was always adorable.
"Spent yes dear, if you want to take it again is okay". Umi Laila's
"Thank umi". Say
"Beloved together". Umi Laila replied with a smile
The four of them ate dinner quietly. Laila's umi cuisine is always delicious and delicious to enjoy, Alfina thought. She hopes that someday when she is married to Alfan she can be a good wife and devoted to her husband.
