Azan dawn in my head with the voice of one of the very melodious santri in the ear. Time has shown five o'clock less than fifteen minutes. It's time for the morning prayers.
After the morning prayers the students began cleaning the Pesantren courtyard, after which the sport then returned to the dormitory to prepare for today's lessons.
Elsewhere, as usual, Amelia helped Juminarti's mother in the kitchen after morning prayers. At seven, he returned to the room waiting for Azka to wake up and put her things in the suitcase.
When Azka woke up, Amelia bathed him and then took him out of the room.
Yuli had been waiting for Azka to be taken to teach.
"Duhh.. really fragrant, Azka handsome Aunt," praised Yuli when she just saw Azka out of the room.
"Azka has already taken Tan's bath, so it is fragrant, use the same shampoo soap," Azka replied with a small voice to make Yuli more jubilant.
"Azka, come with Auntie Yuk! we learn to pay the same salary, "Please persuade Yuli while extending her hand.
Azka moves to Yuli's hands, Amelia lets Azka come because Ergan is not sure what time to pick them up.
"Yul, today Azka and I will go" said Amelia.
"Where are you going?" yuli asked while playing her fingers held by Azka.
"We will return to Jakarta with her father Azka" Amelia replied.
"Huh?! Azka's father?" Yuli parroted, she was not surprised to hear Azka's father called.
"Yes, he'll pick us up today" Amelia said.
"Then what about the wedding of Mommy Amel and Kak Pras?" ask Yuli.
"Our marriage is off Yul, I've spoken to Pras and Mommy." Amelia spoke softly, looking sorrow at the look on her beautiful face.
"Surely they're sad." Yuli is sad.
"Yes Yul, they are very sad and disappointed with my decision. Yu, if I have any faults and always trouble you forgive me huh?" Amelia held onto Yuli's hand, her silent gaze wanting to shed tears.
"Kok said it like that. I want to cry...!" Yuli's tears first came out unstoppable. Amelia was like a big sister to him, and Azka was already considered like her own bangs.
"Don't be sad, I'll come here often with Azka. If Azka had grown up, I would have taken her to study religion here." Amelia tries to appease Deaf, though she does not know if Ergan still let her go to Pesantren after knowing Amelia will marry Pras.
Given how Ergan behaved when jealous, it seemed that it was impossible!
"How not sad, Ma'am will go with Azka. Where far away once again. Who else is Yuli playing with?" Yuli pursed her lips. He did not want to part with Azka.
"Just be calm, you won't be lonely, you're a lot of santri kids, right?"
"That's different, ma'am. There's no fun and a blanket of Azka." Yuli kissed Azka's cheek.
"Yul, if I've moved, would you like to see Mom? pity is old must take care of Rangga. I also took Pras."
"How did you pick Kak Pras? if Mother and Rangga are not a problem, but if Kak Pras does not want to, he is already grown no longer need to be taken care of," declined Yuli.
"Give it a little attention, you're the only one you believe can take care of them."
"Yes, yes, we will talk again after I teach. I go first Ma'am, Assalamualaikum.."
"Assalamualaikum Mommy.." Azka took part and Yuli took Azka to class.
Amelia went back into the room, cleaned herself and put on her shari'i clothes complete with hijab. Do not forget to do a little makeup with thin make-up.
Tok..
The sound of knocking on the door shifted Amelia's gaze from the mirror. Amelia moved and opened the door.
"Price." Amelia was surprised to see Pras standing in front of her bedroom door. That guy has never done that before. If he wants to meet Amelia, Pras will tell someone to call Amelia.
"You are so beautiful" Pras praised as she looked at Amelia full of longing, her eyes unblinking at her heart, "Astagfirullahaladzim...!" pras continued fearing sin because he unconsciously looked at Ameli for several minutes.
"What time did you get picked up?" ask Pras.
"Not know."
"Then we're talking in the tea garden, can we?" ask Pras.
"okay."
Amelia did not want to reject Pras's invitation. Maybe this is their chance to talk. Pras walks side by side with Amelia to the tea garden.
Gamelan
Not one word came out as they walked. In a situation like this Amelia felt uncomfortable. Especially when tea garden workers tease them as a compatible couple.
"Pras, from the day I resign as a tea picker in your garden." Amelia spoke while walking.
"Where is your resignation?" Pras put his hands together as if asking for a piece of paper containing a letter of resignation.
"Do you have to use that letter?" amelia asked as she frowned.
"Of course, all my workers signed contracts before work" Pras replied.
"But I never seem to" said Amelia, thinking about whether she had ever been given a contract.
"Hehehe, that's because up until now I've never considered you an employee. You're the one who wants to work there hot. Your salary is also separate from other workers. Yes, you could say you're an illegal worker" Pras chuckled considering how innocent Amelia was when she started working.
"Geez.. hehehe I'm really into it?" Amelia hit her eel with the palm of her hand remembering her stupidity. The smile on her lips adorned her beautiful face.
"You are not bego but too plain" Pras said.
"Yes?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Haha..." They laugh together
At first Pras accepted Amelia to work only because of her mother's request so that Amelia had activities rather than daydreaming all day. Seeing Amelia's beautiful and elegant appearance, Pras thought women like Amelia were used to the atmosphere of the air-conditioned room and would not feel at home working under the hot sun. But Pras was wrong, Amelia worked diligently like any other tea picker. Salary that Amelia received for the cost of labor and adding groceries in the kitchen. Although food ingredients have been fulfilled from Pras, but Amelia still shopping in the market using her personal money.
The atmosphere began to improve, the awkwardness between them began to disappear seeing Pras' smile. It's okay Pras laughs at him, the important thing is that Pras is not sad anymore because soon they will be separated.
Amelia stood by Pras' side enjoying the view of the Tea Garden as long as her eyes could see.
"I'm glad to see you smile. I hope that smile will always be there, even if I am not here. You deserve to be happy Pras" said Amelia.
"You're sure after you're gone I can still be happy? I smile because you're still here, by my side." Pras's face is serious.
"Pras, please don't make my steps feel heavy. I love you, Mom, and Rangga. Until when I don't forget you guys, you're part of my life."
"Amel, can I see you if I go to Jakarta at any time?"
"Of course I can. I'm glad to wait."
"Thank God, if it's like that, I feel relieved."
"You're happy to meet Ergan? actually, in the tea garden I saw you."
"So, you..."
