Loving You in Prayer
Part 6's

Tonight Alfan will stay at his uminya house because the Abi has not returned from his work outside the city. He immediately tidied up the files lined up on his desk then he would soon return to the homes of his parents. While driving his car he accidentally saw a woman walking on the side of the road.

"Who are these nights still on the road". Alfan muttered in the car

He stopped his car and saw who was on the road. It would be surprising that a woman was his student who was none other than Alfina. Alfan then opened his car door and went down to Alfina who was still walking slowly on the side of the road.

"Why are the nights still on the road?". Alfan to Alfina

Alfina was shocked to hear someone talking beside her, she reflexively turned to Alfan who was quite close to Alfan's distance. Alfan took a quick look at Alfina.

"Sir Alfan". Alfina said slowly

"My answer was this question". Flat Alfan speech

"Sorry sir, I want to go home". Answer Alfina

"Isn't college over this afternoon?". Alfan asked Alfina

Seeing the silence from Alfina who was bowing, Alfan had the intention to offer Alfina a ride. Because he saw on this road is quiet and rarely there are vehicles that pass because it is night.

"Get in the car, I'll drive you home". Alfan's orders to Alfina

"Sorry sir, I can go home by myself". Reply Alfina politely

"You don't see this street deserted and prone to robbery". Tukas Alfan saw Alfina at a glance

"But I don't want to trouble you". Said Alfina while looking down

"There's no trouble helping a fellow human being, let alone a woman". Alfan

"You don't have to worry I won't mess around" Alfan continued

Alfina nodded "but can I sit in the back?". Ask Alfina carefully

Alfan understood, a woman like Alfina would definitely be keeping her limits on a man who was not her mahram. He is so keeping a distance with men, the proof is that he always lowered his gaze if accidentally met with him.

"Alright if it makes you comfortable". Answer Alfan

After getting into the car with Alfan driving and Alfina sitting in the back, the two of them were both silent. Every now and then Alfan looked at Alfina who had seen the night view from the window of her car. Alfan broke the silence between the two of them.

"Where's your home address?". Alfan asked Alfina

"Rose Street sir, I'll go down in front of the alley". Alfina looked ahead

"If your house is still far from where you came down, I'd better take it with you". Alfan said while focusing on driving

Alfina shook her head "No need sir, my house is close to where I'm going down later". Reply Alfina

"alright". Answer Alfan

Actually, Alfina wanted to refuse an offer from her lecturer who wanted to send her home. But he was also afraid of being alone in the middle of the streets like that. Finally he agreed to an offer from his teacher. It was the first time this time he was delivered directly by a man and worse yet who delivered him was a lecturer at his campus.

Twenty minutes finally Alfan arrived in front of the alley of Alfina's house. He pulled over his car and saw Alfina at a glance. Alfan was shocked that the girl's house was in this alley. Of course he knows because this road is the road that usually passed by Alfan when he visited an orphanage.

"Thank you sir for driving me home, sorry for bothering you". Say it politely before getting off Alfan's car

Alfan nodded "yes equally". Reply Alfan

"Then I say goodbye, Assalamualaikum". Greetings Alfina to Alfan

"Vaalaikumussalam". Alfan replied as he saw Alfina coming down from his car

"There's a feeling what the servant with the girl is yaRabb". Monologue Alfan in the heart

Alfina had just cleaned herself up by changing into plain pink sleeping pajamas. He laid his body on the bed after performing the prayer isya' earlier. The children of the home are being invited on vacation by Mother Nila and her relatives in one of the villas in Yogyakarta. Previously he was also invited but Alfina could not participate because he had to follow his lectures so that he could graduate on time.

Not long ringing cell phone Alfina rang, mother Nila was the one who called her. He picked up the phone with Alfina.

"Assalamualaikum mother". Greetings Alfina while changing her position to sit

"Waalaikumussalam darling". Reply to Nila across the phone

"How was your holiday? Adek-adek must be happy to be invited on vacation with mother". Ask Alfina enthusiastically

"Alhamdulillah smoothly son, the orphanage children are all happy too. This is where they just finished dinner with their relatives. Have you eaten, son?". Mother Nila said to Alfina while asking

"Alhamdulillah if so mother, Alfina had eaten at work earlier". Answer Alfina

"Yes you rest, baby, don't get tired. Tomorrow is your holiday do not say okay. The home has been cleaned, you have to take care of your health". Tell Nila's mother to pay attention to Alfina

"Yes mother Alfina always dutiful what mother said, but may if Alfina help clean-up. You don't know if Alfina doesn't do anything?". Reply Alfina while chuckling

"May as long as you don't get tired". Answer mother Nila

"Thank you mother". Reply Alfina

"Oh yes mother, may if Alfina tomorrow permission to go to the supermarket for a while, because there is something that Alfina wants to buy". Alfina's permission on Nila's mother

"By honey, but buy it straight home okay?". Answer mother Nila

"Good mother". Reply Alfina

"Then you close the phone first, you're fine at home, son, Assalamualaikum". Nila said she ended her phone

"Yes mother of Waalaikumussalam". Answer Alfina

Alfina remembered her father and her mother. Every night before going to bed, he misses his parents. His father and mother were already in God's Heaven, all he could do now was wish them all the best. If he misses his parents' father, it is certain that he will visit the graves of his parents which are located quite far from where he lives now. Unknowingly, he shed his tears.

"The father of Alfina's mother misses". Alfina said softly

He tried to be strong and strong in front of everyone. Though in his heart he is fragile because he has lost both parents since he was a child. He could not forget all the memories he had with his parents. But now he is an adult so he will try as much as possible to realize his goals in order to become a successful person.

At about three in the morning he woke up and then stepped into the bathroom to take the water. He will perform the evening prayer and pray along his bow so that what he wants will be granted by God. Alfina is indeed a religious girl, she will pray five times along with her sunnah prayer.

Finished with her activities, Alfina went downstairs to help the aunt clean up the house. It is not possible to stay silent on a holiday like this. Because in addition to college activities at work is also a holiday if Sunday. So Alfina can rest and relax in this home.

"Assalamualaikum aunty". Greetings Alfina when she saw bi Inah was sweeping the floor

"Waalaikumussalam son". Answer bi Inah

"Bi let Alfina mop the floor yes, let auntie not get tired". Alfina said to bi Inah

"Do not want to make the day off, you should just rest. You'll be tired". Reply to Inah while looking at Alfina

"It's okay for Alfina not tired really, just Alfina happy to be able to help aunty". Alfina replied with a smile

"Well, if you need help telling auntie, son?". Speak to Alfina

Alfina nodded in response to the statement from bi Inah. Next Alfina mopped from the terrace to the second floor of her room. In addition, he also helped bi Inah clean the kitchen and backyard of this home. After everything was done he immediately got ready to go to his room, as he was going to the supermarket to buy some of his depleted needs.
