Not just a compulsion to live. Precisely a path to reach to the stage of sincerity and perfect patience.
In matchmaking, it is not something that has ever occurred in the mind of a girl named Alsya Ainun Zahwa. But because of his obedience to the father, Alsya can only be patient by accepting it also sincerely in living it.
Today is the culmination of all his misfortune. Alsya's body has been wrapped in clothes that make it like an angel, but Wingless. Alsya scratched her body in front of the mirror. Seeing how beautiful the body of the nineteen-year-old girl was when wrapped in a wedding dress. There was no plain face that he always saw when reflecting.
In the room, Alsya just kept silent waiting for the event that was being held in the living room to be completed.
Her ears are clearly heard her father outside is doing the process of his contract. After his father was done, he was connected to the voice of a man who sounded resolute as well as seemed to be in just one breath. And followed again by the word "SAH" as if echoing and vibrating the entire house.
Alsya's heart was getting more and more troubled. I don't know what he's feeling right now. Because he himself did not understand his own feelings at this moment. Alsya gasped when someone opened the door to her room.
" Alsha. "
" Umma. "
" Yes, son. Come outside. Meet your husband now." His ummanya speech then holding Alsya's arm.
" But, umma. Alsya's afraid..."
" Why are you afraid?."
Alsya. It is true what the ummanya said. What is he afraid of?.
Behind her mother, her brother also entered her room. "Come, Al. That's your husband at the door. " Say her sister who also joined Alsya's arm.
Alsya sighed then nodded. With his right arm held by his mother and his left arm held by his brother, slowly Alsya's legs stepped but immediately stopped when in front of the door that was still tightly closed.
Alsha turned to her mother. " Umma.." call him shrewd.
" Why Al ?."
" Umma. It must be crowded outside, right ?."
" Obviously, there is an event. " His brother replied.
" Yes, Alsya's shy sister."
" O Allah, Alsha. That's Aly's kasian has been waiting for you a long time outside. " Sniffled her brother kelp.
"Yes already. You guys got him in the room, both of you. Let's not be ashamed. But it'll come out, huh ?." His mother finally broke up.
" Ohh, umma. How in the room ?." Decak Alsya as her mother walked towards the door.
" You are this, deck. Ribet know ?. Already ahh. Brother get out first. " Say her sister who also came out of the room.
" Why did it all come out anyway ?." Alsya pouted and immediately sat her body on the edge of the bed.
Just a few seconds later, the door moved again and gave rise to a man standing on his threshold. The smile on the man's face seemed to instantly hypnotize his eyes. Even Alsya subconsciously stood back up to look at the man who was walking over.
"Assalamualaik." Said the man in a very soft voice. A man named Zuhally Hasbi Lathif, who a few minutes ago holds the status of her husband.
"Vaalaikumsalam. " Alsya answered in a soft voice almost inaudible.
Aly got closer and now the two stood facing each other at a distance of less than half a meter.
" You still have ablution ?." Ask Aly.
Alsya. Because he did not feel undo the wudhunya that he took before doing the make up earlier.
"We pray first."
The speech which was an invitation made Alsya's heart rustle in peace.
Is this wisdom to have a religious priest ?. Bathin Alsya's.
Alsya nodded her head again.
Alsya was speechless with a confused look at Aly's words this time but he still lowered his head according to Aly's orders.
Alsya felt her hijab slightly interested and a moment later Aly distanced her hand back from Alsya's head. Aly walked towards the dressing table and put down something she took from Alsya's head.
Alsya was only speechless to notice Aly's sudden behavior. It turns out Aly just took off the little crown that Alsya was wearing.
Aly returned to Alsya's presence. "Sorry, you can wear it again, later." Aly apologized for what she just did.
The two began the prayer of two rakaat Sunnah Rasul and continued with four rakaat two salam salam Sunnah Dhuha. When finished, both pairs of hands looked up. Alsya guaranteed a series of prayers that were chanted from her husband's lips. Aly closed her prayer and turned to face Alsya. His hand was stretched out to be welcomed by Alsha's hand.
Alsya shifted her seat to be more advanced and welcomed the hand calmly and solemnly as her heart hummed the sholawat to the lord of the last days, which punishes a marriage to be one of its Sunnah.
Because it is too solemn in prayer that feels so delicious and reconcile. Both of them do not realize, if there are three pairs of eyes that witness the beautiful moment with lips smiling widely. A very romantic moment.
Along with Alsya who shone Aly's hand, Aly also cupped her free palm on the top of Alsya's head while praying. After Alsya finished, Aly's hand in Salami Alsya moved to hold Alsya's chin, looked up Alsya's face and landed her kiss on Alsya's forehead.
Alsya closed her eyes while feeling the warmth coming from her forehead radiating into the depths of her heart. And it really reconciled his soul and body. Alsya immediately opened her eyes as the warmth moved to her lips. Of course, because Aly also landed his kiss on Alsya's lips, even if only for a few seconds.
The face reaped the distance with an ornate red hue on each other's faces. A single smile returned to each other.
Both of them came out of the room after Aly had asked the fairy to justify Alsya's makeup and also put the crown that had been knocked out on Alsya's head.

Having the status as a wife also santri simultaneously makes Alsya must be strong-hearted to resist the deep longing for her husband's figure. After living together for five days, he has now endured a month of longing. Never met the figure of her husband was in a state of together as they often do before.
Today Alsya called her Ning to the house ndalem. The friendship between the two is indeed a long time ago, and it is also what requires him to often go back and forth to his Kyai family home.
" Assalamualaikum, Ning Eman."
"Greetings waalaikum, Al. You finally came too. Yuk, we're going straight away. " Halimah or often called Ning Imah because she was the daughter of the cottage nanny was holding Alsya's hand to Pajero whose engine was already on.
" Eh. Ning Home. Where are we going, Ning ?." Tanya Alsya was curious.
"We're going for a walk. You accompany me, huh ?. Would you like to ?.''
"I can't say reject it, Ning."
Hearing Alsya Ning Halimah's words immediately chuckled small. Ja. It was true that Alsya said, if Alsya did not have the right to reject Ning Halimah's invitation. Because it will be expressed as a form of reverence as well as manners against the daughter of the owner of knowledge.
They got into a heated car but there was no driver. Alsya looked around, but there was still no one other than these two.
"Ning, who are we going with?." Tanya Alsya is still looking for the whereabouts of santri who will be her driver for the departure at this time.
"Sama kang Aly, he's not here?, Is it possible to go to the toilet first?." Said Ning Halimah who also began looking for the existence of Kang Aly, one of the santri gadgets in the family home kyai or called santri khodam.
"Aly's brother ?." Alsya asked slightly stunned and stared fixedly at Ning Halimah's face.
There is no longer a name with the nickname Kang Aly as santri khodam here other than Zuhaly, her husband.
Alsya's heart was a little uncomfortable hearing her husband who was going to be their travel driver this time. Because she knew how Ning was, Ning Halimah was one of her husband's secret admirers. In fact, Alsya was the place Ning Halimah confided in as Ning Halimah admired Kang Aly's figure.
The steering wheel door opened from the outside, as the two looked simultaneously towards the front.
The appearance of the man in front of him was indeed very charming and hypnotic to the eyes. The charm of Aly kang is no doubt. Kang Aly has an oriental face, with a blend of Javanese and Turkish Indonesian faces. Thin sideburns on his jaw add to his good looks, as well as light skin color that is not the same as other male students. The color of the skin owned by Aly kang is not much different from the skin color of Alsya, his wife.
Alsya glanced at Ning Halimah, and her guess was right, that Ning Halimah was admiring the figure of a kang Aly even though it was just from behind her.
"Muanteen, Ning. Where are we going?." Kang Aly asked without looking back at all.
Ning Halimah instantly regained her senses from her daydream after hearing Aly's kang sayings.
"We're going to the mall, kang." Answer Ning Halimah.
"Good, Ning." Reply to Aly and immediately drive his car out of the boarding yard and blend in on the highway.
