New Hope Together Dusk That Is No Longer the Same
The twilight is no longer the same

“Ica has finished Bang,” said Aisha who suddenly made Faris turn her head.

“Ah yes, Abang shower first then,” replied Faris stepped into the bathroom.

“Iya, warm water as well as towels already Ica readyin kok,” said Aisha before Faris disappeared behind the bathroom door.

Suddenly the bathroom door opened again, Faris tilted her head from behind the door.

“There are missed Bang?”

“Emmm, do we pray together? Ica hasn't prayed, right?”

Aisha simply smiled in response to Faris' question, a smile that looked strange according to Faris.

“Why?” faris asked, waiting for Aisha's answer.

“Ica again does not pray,” replied Aisha with a smile that actually makes Faris massage her temple. Not because of Aisha's smile, rather the answer Aisha made.

“Serious?” ask Faris to make sure.

Aisha smiled nodding her head.

“Subhanallah ...” Faris again closed the door in a doldrums.

Aisha chuckled at Faris' reaction. Actually Aisha did not have the heart to see Faris have to fast first on the night of her bride until the next few days.

But whatever the power, this is not his will.

***

While waiting for Faris to finish her bath, Aisha prepared a glass of milk for Faris.

Aisha remembered a hadith narrated by Asma’ bint Yazid bin Assakan, when the Prophet SAW came to ‘Aisha on his first night, then the Prophet sat beside him. Milk was served and the Apostle drank it, after which milk was given to ‘Aisha. With a feeling of shame ‘Aisyah bows her head. Then Asma’ said “Take the glass from the hand of the Prophet.” Aisha took the glass and drank it a little. (S.Ahmad).

Finished preparing the milk, Aisha then prepared a prayer kit for Faris, while she waited by the bed by reading a book.

It was almost midnight, Aisha herself felt sleepy attacking him, but she wanted to wait for Faris to finish her prayer.

Finished the prayer and short, Faris immediately tidied back his prayer equipment. Approaching his wife on the edge of the bed who was still faithful waiting for him.

Aisha stopped reading when she felt the other side of the mattress move.

Aisha took the milk she had prepared at the side of the table, then handed it to Faris.

Faris actually offered the milk Aisha had given her to drink first.

“Ica will make it for Brother,” said Aisha frowned.

“Ica cobain also dong.”

After Aisha took a sip of her milk, Faris took it and drank the milk on the same side Aisha drank.

Blush ... The hue on Aisha's cheek is increasingly visible when watching Faris' treatment.

Aisha immediately closed her eyes as Faris moved towards her. But after a split second Aisha felt nothing, curious about what happened, Aisha reopened her eyes.

It turned out that Faris was just passing by to put the milk back on the table next to Aisha. How surprised Aisha when Faris actually stopped in front of her face, now the distance between the two is only a few centi.

Aisha who was shocked suddenly covered her face with both palms.

“Ca,” call Faris make Aisha open her hand.

“Hmmm.”

Without Aisha guessing, Faris took Aisha's hand, grabbed it and kissed it.

Silent. Both are silent.

Faris then cupped her hands in Aisha's face, cutting the distance between them, landing a sweet kiss on Aisha's troubled forehead made Aisha close her eyes again to enjoy the warmth.

Lirih heard Faris reciting a prayer for Aisha while holding her crown.

“Allahumma inni as’aluka min khoirihaa wa khoirimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih. Wa a’udzubika min syarriha wa syarrimaa jabaltaha ‘alaih.”

(O Allah, I ask Thee for the good of him and the good that Thou hast ordained upon him. And I take refuge in Thee from his ugliness and the ugliness which Thou hast set upon him)

“Yahya told me from Malik, from Zaid ibn Aslam, that the Prophet said, ‘When one of you marries a woman or buys a slave girl, so hold the crown and pray for blessings (goodness)”

The ditch at the end of Aisha's eyes hardened along with her solemn ‘amin’ speech that was thrown. Although his heart was still rumbling, Faris looked into Aisha's eyes which were still filled with tears in her eyes.

Both chest up and down enjoying the scent of their respective breaths, Faris seemed hesitant to wipe Aisha's tears with her thumb, but finally the smile on the corner of the lips were both equally created.

“Now you are my world, the only reason I live in the flow of time.” That sentence sounds so beautiful in Aisha's hearing.

“We sleep well, Abang tau Ica must be cape,” Faris said gently while laying Aisha on her side.

Getting a sweet treatment from the man who is now her husband status, Aisha seemed to forget all her curiosity that she had been holding while waiting for Faris to finish her prayer.

Azka looked up to hear her name called. He looked at the woman in front of him in wonder.

“You doctor here?” tanya Azka furrowed her brows.

“You can't see me wearing a doctor's uniform?”

Azka just shrugged her shoulders indifferently.

“Why not tell me you want to go to the hospital too? Can we do it together?”

“Hust?”

“Yes at least ...”

“Brother Rafa ...” call a nurse stop Karina sentence.

“Excuse me...” said Faris left Karina still in her place.

“Newly this time I gotiniin same guy!” karina grumbled after Azka disappeared behind the check room door.

“Just pray Hasan ya Mi, may Allah make the path of Hasan.”

“What you should not help Abah ngurus pesantren only here San?” now Kyai Safar spoke up.

“You sure that's the only reason you went San?” Ning Sabina's question surprised Gus Hasan who was sitting on the edge of his bed.

“Means Mba?” gus Hasan asked as if he did not understand the direction of Ning's conversation.

“Mba thinks there is something strange about your departure this time,” Ning Sabina replied with a probing look.

‘True, there is indeed another reason that I am avoiding here Mba. He, who is not halal to me. Because I miss him more every time I'm here. I'm afraid I'll even go back to see him’

“Hasan just wants to improve himself again Mba in order not only to be the best for Umi and Abah, but also for them, the people around Hasan, he said,” said Gus Hasan made Ning Sabina speechless.
