Bianka has been living in the pesantren for a month now, so many new experiences that she had not previously been able to get in formal education but she was able to be in pesantren.
Like today because of college and work is also a holiday, Bianka has a lot of time in the pesantren. Bianka works part-time at a bookstore located not far from the campus, if the campus is on holiday, the bookstore will also be off because most who buy books are students.
"Aspiral, umi!" Sapa Bianka when approaching the earth of Sarah who was drying clothes.
"Greetings ..., Bia!"
"Let's go on umi!" bianka said while taking Nyai Sarah's clothes.
Nyai Sarah just smiled as she looked at Bianka who replaced her job.
"Did Bia have a candidate?" ask Nyai Sarah. Bianka smiled and looked at Nyai's mother,
"No Umi, no thought yet!"
"Why? Isn't that better?"
"There are still too many problems that Bia has to solve, Umi!"
Nyai Sarah just smiled as she looked at Bianka.
"It's over, umi, where's the bucket?"
"Let's just let's go!" nyai said as she grabbed the bucket but Bianka refused.
"Don't Umi, let Bia be! Umi just show me where it is!"
"Well ...., right there by the back garden!" said Umi Sarah while pointing to a park that Bianka had never entered.
But Bianka's gaze was fixed on someone who was chatting with Kyai Hamid. They were sitting in a gasebo in the middle of the park.
"Umi ...., isn't she?" tanyanya while pointing at the arrogant man. He only felt like he was dreaming if he saw the man in the boarding school while how their first meeting gave a very bad impression on the man. At the time, the man was in a car with a woman without full clothes in front of his house.
"Yes ..., she's Ayesha's husband!"
Hearing that, Bianka immediately walked up to the man.
"Assalamualaikum mr. Kyai!"
"Greetings .., Bia!"
The man turned to Bianka and frowned, it seemed that he also did not know if Bianka was staying in the pesantren.
“You? Why are you here?” bianka asked while still holding the bucket in her hand.
Alex was silent as usual. Feeling that he did not get an answer, Bianka asked again.
“Why can you be here?” ask Bianka.
"So you guys know each other? Good then!" said Mr. Kyai mediate, "Son Alex is indeed often come here!"
Nyai Sarah's mother caught up with Bianka and held Bianka's shoulder so as not to continue her question.
"Bia ..., join umi yuk! Help umi cook!" ma'am Nyai Sarah said, smiling at Bianka.
Bianka was not able to refuse, she followed Nyai Sarah's step towards the kitchen ndalem.
"Help the umi cut the vegetables!" ma'am Nyai Sarah said by giving some long bean ties to Bianka.
"Yes umi ....!"
But it turned out that it did not dampen Bianka's curiosity. He was still so curious why a man like Alex could be in the pesantren. Or maybe he has a malicious plan against the pesantren.
“umi!"
Miss Nyai Sarah who was peeling onions also raised her head to look at Bianka, “Iya?”
‘Why can her husband Aisyah be here, umi?”
‘His husband Aisyah is one of Pak Kyai's students, Bia!”
“Really?” bianka asked inquiring, he still could not believe, "It's not because there's another purpose, it's not because of a project?"
Nyai Sarah nodded. "Yes, not for anything else! We have to be husnudhon and it looks like he really studied religion!"
Listening to Ms Nyai Sarah's explanation, Bianka could only be kind to the man.
Then ...., what about gus Fahmi ...?
‘It looks like they have never intentionally talked together, What is it?!”
“Not umi ..., it's nothing!" bianka said and came back with her job, but then she came back curious about something,
"Nnn ....!"
"Yes?"
"Is gus Fahmi okay?”
Nyai Sarah smiled at Bianka, "That's just umi's son and God knows, let it be their secret!”
Did her husband learn religion? Why?, Bianka's mind is still floating around. He is still trying to find the most reasonable reason for his decision to study religion.
***
After her encounter with Alex, Bianka really can't wait to ask her best friend, does she know? but he also didn't want to talk about it over the phone. He has to wait until tomorrow to talk about it.
This afternoon on campus, Bianka immediately looked for her best friend. He has to make sure of something.
Lately his best friend is often permission. Not finding her in the classroom, Bianka has to look for her again.
"Maybe he's in the pylus!" bianka said after not finding Aisyah in class or at the campus mosque.
Because Aisyah has tasks that accumulate so she may be busy there.
And sure enough, when he entered the library, he could immediately find it in the corner of the room with books piled high in front of him.
“Assalamualaikum, Ay!” greet Bianka while sitting next to her best friend.
“waalaikum greetings, bi!" aisyah replied while looking at him for a while and came back busy with the books in front of her.
"Why is your phone? Why didn't I pick up the phone earlier!"
"Astagfirullah ..., really? Sorry I'm silent mode!" aisyah said while showing her phone and sure enough had been dozens of missed calls that went into her phone.
"What's up?” asked Aisyah when she saw her best friend who looked so serious. Aisha closed her book and watched her friend.
Bianka folded her hands on the table and looked closely at Aisyah, she was curious from the eyes of her best friend,
“Do you know anything about your arrogant husband?"
Aisyah frowned until her eyebrows were united, "I mean?"
"Knowing something about your husband, like a change?" ask Bianka again.
“What's the temperature? What changes?”
“Your husband is coming to the pesantren!” Bianka. Of course it made Aisyah surprised, especially she also had experience of the heart there.
"What's? Wh why? To nurul huda boarding school?” Ask Aisyah to make sure if the pesantren in question is the same pesantren.
“Yes!"
"For what?" ask Aisha again.
"If the word umi is studying religion! But I'm not sure!”
Alex studied religion, right? What's all the change lately because of it ...., but why didn't Alex say?
"Ay ...., why is it dumbass?" bianka asked who saw Aisyah was silent with her own thoughts.
“today I went to the boarding school!" aisyah said with such confidence.
“Your husband didn't pick up?” bianka asked because she knew lately her best friend's husband was being diligently picked up.
“incidentally today the schedule was off the cast, so alex did not pick up. Only Leon will pick up!”
"Good ....!"
...To be good, there is no need for recognition from many people. Origin remains Istiqamah and all because Allah~MAvsMS...
