My Idol My Imam's
Call Mr. Ferdi

Episode 8: the:

" Mister Ferdi, sir Ferdi, right?" Alina asked after she reached the living room. The one called also looked.

" Eh Alina, how are you?" Ferdi asked back. He approached Alina who was standing up and greeted her by cupping her hands together, seeing that Ferdi had understood what he had to do if she shook hands with Alina, using a long distance hand.

Alina did the same, sitting next to her father.

" Sir how are you?" Alina asked as they both sat down.

" Thank God I'm good, are you alone?" Ask Ferdi.

" Alhamdulillah I am also good, if the situation of the parents how? Is it healthy now?" Ask Alina again.

" Thank God, it's getting better now." Answer Ferdi as he is. They also talked to each other while accompanied by a glass of tea and a plate of boiled cassava. Until finally Ferdi began to express the intention of his arrival.

" Look Alina and Jaka sir, I came here in addition to being in touch, I also had the intention to ask Alina for help, that too if Alina pleases." His words did not directly say his true intentions.

" What would you do if you could know?" It was Jaka who asked, no matter how it concerned his daughter, and he had to interfere.

" So sir, my wife and I live separately, I am in Indonesia, and my wife is abroad. He was there living alone while I was in Indonesia, and he often felt lonely, so he asked me to find him a friend, such as a chatmate and a shopping buddy, so I remembered Alina, did you allow Alina to accompany my wife, and did Alina want to? Take it easy, it's not free, I'll send Alina to school until it's over, and I'll give her money every month to send to her family, if it's a matter of daily needs, if it's a matter of daily needs, like eating and clothes, I will provide her, Alina can also go home whenever she wants, as long as her school is on vacation. How sir?" With as much detail as possible Ferdi explained her so that Alina and her father did not feel offended by her remarks.

" Yes if I, it's up to Alina, if she wants, I'll let her." Jaka Evident. He thought, after all Alina would also leave her village. If there is anyone who will guarantee the life of his child, why should he refuse. Opportunity does not come twice.

" Do you mean my father worked with you?" Ask Alina.

" I'm not saying that as a prisoner of work, rather, I'm the one who's asking you for help, but if you're more comfortable considering it that way, it's up to you." Obviously Ferdi was convincing.

" Oh yes, if you are still in doubt, I will make a video call to my wife, so that you feel more confident." Her bargain.

" Can!" Alina answered without hesitation. He felt sure that Ferdi was a good person, looking honesty in his eyes as he was talking. Maybe Ferdi was the one God sent to help him.

The call was soon connected. It was obvious that the hijab-wearing middle-aged woman, who still looked very beautiful and well-groomed, was smiling behind the screen of Ferdi's phone.

" Dear assalamualaikum!" Ferdi said softly and sounded very friendly.

" Aisyah, Mas want to introduce you to Alina who often talk about it." Said Ferdi while saying his phone screen on Alina.

" Mom's assalamualaikum!" Alina said courteously.

" Dear waalaikumsalam!" Aisha answered so softly.

" Oh, you're Alina, right? God be beautiful, dear, very polite again." Praise her to Alina.

" Oh my God, thank you Mom! She is also beautiful and very nice." Praise Alina back. They chatted and seemed so familiar, even if they only met face to face through video calls. Until Jaka and Ferdi made head bobbles with their familiarity. He was happy to see that.

Until in the end, Ferdi switched the screen of his phone to face him, suddenly it made Aisyah feel annoyed, she was not satisfied to talk and get acquainted with Alina.

" Ihhh mas, why take his hendphone? I'm not done talking to Alina yet." His words with a sulking tone, but of course still sound soft and not snapping, even sounding very spoiled. Alina until smiling to see the behavior of the couple, they look still very friendly with their age that is not young anymore.

" Usah used to say it baby, mas want to continue talking to his father Alina first" said Ferdi to the wife.

" Yes, no papa, but not in matiin his cell phone!" Pinta Aisyah to her husband.

" Yes, I put it here on his cell phone." Ferdi said as he put his phone on the table.

" So how's Jaka sir, Alina, do you agree?" Repeated Ferdi back on the original topic.

" If I agree, what else after seeing the conversation between Alina and the father's wife look very familiar, I'm more convinced and agree." Jaka answered without hesitation.

" But I'm back with her Alina. How's neng, do you want to?" Ask Jaka to the child.

" Alina was very happy to be able to see and talk a lot with Aisyah's mother, even Alina felt comfortable, but, can Alina think about it first? Give Alina time to think about it!" Alina Pinta.

" Of course you may, son, I will not force you, if you object, you may refuse him, you do not hesitate to tell me! If you have the answers, you can call me, or you can meet me at this address, we'll go to China soon." Ferdi then gives his business card to Alina, politely Alina accepts him.

Uhh wait,,,,, wait, China he said? Didn't Alina hear wrong? What do you mean is China? Geez Alina, what kind of stupid question is this? How many Chinese countries are there? Alina,,,,, Alina! Hearing the word China for some reason, his brain suddenly hesitated, even now he was smiling himself.
