After a few days before Niken had a long struggle in his mind and after quite a lot of discussion with Sriyani and Sofia, that afternoon when Niken had returned home, he said, he took the time to momentarily set himself in front of the glass cabinet. Trying to see himself while wearing a hijab in the form of a white headscarf that covers his head and dsar was originally a child selebor and tomboy then his white hat too

“Hemmm..approximately, I did not deserve to look like this?” murmured Niken asked himself. His body moved left and right to shift the waist of the left and right sides and then turned and when turning back suddenly the father had appeared behind the door of Niken's room.

“Wahhh...tumben son dad wear hijab so, hehehe!” the laughter of his father Niken appeared behind the door of Niken's room because only this time it was seen that his daughter was trying to wear a hijab. Because all this time Niken was always seen cute in dress with hair unravelled shoulder plus his distinctive hat is white. Niken always looks tomboy every day.

“Ihhh...what the heck is aja dehhh!” timpal Niken saw his father laughing at him

“Surely someone made you suddenly turn into a gini!” reply father researching

“Not that too yah time! Kan niken can see in the sosmed about the look can still be fashionable the women in hijab!” reply Niken gave arguments

“Ahhh...dad still can't believe it! There must be something that makes you suddenly want to wear that hijab!” return his father again while leaving

In Niken's heart muttered, “Emang people can't change well? Or is the name of the girl seleborr already too attached to me?  Ahhh...masa bodolah..important I want to try this hijab tomorrow to campus!” Delighted while smilingly looking at herself in front of the glass.

However, it turns out that the surprise of the father has not stopped there especially the night when the father was waiting for Niken at the dinner table for dinner together suddenly Niken out of his room and has been neat with new look, hijab! Although not forgetting to stick the white slanted hat remains faithful to accompany in his head.

"Miss? What the hell's going on? You... Are you seriously changing your appearance?" the father again asked as if he still could not believe the drastic change from the princess.

“Ya ayahhh...I am seriously trying to change my appearance from now on!” obviously Niken with a smile.

"Hijab? But you've always loved your tomboy look and that slanted white hat."

"Yes, it used to be. But, after much contemplation and discussion with friends, I realized that I wanted to find peace in my life. I want to get closer to religion and feel better about myself."

"So, are you sure of your decision?"

"Yes, Dad. I still doubt in my heart. But, I want to try. I want to feel close to God and be a better person."

"I'm proud of you, son. Although I'm shocked, but if it's really your sincere decision, I'll always support you."

"Thank you, Dad. I know you'll have a hard time accepting this change, but I hope you can

supports me."

"Of course, Son. I can try to better understand and support you. Don't worry, I'll always be there for you."

"Niken, what exactly makes you want to hijab? Is there any influence from others?"

"Actually, not because of anyone else, Dad. I feel like this is part of my journey to get better. I want to know myself and face the world with confidence."

"I understand. And I agree, everyone has the right to find the meaning of their lives. Niken, how do you feel when you decide to go headscarf?"

"I'm mixed up, Dad. There are fears and worries, but there is also a sense of happiness and optimism. I know this trip wasn't easy, but I wanted to give it a try."

"Niken, life is full of challenges and changes. But, if you are confident in your good intentions and remain strong in your beliefs, I believe you will face everything well."

"I hope so, Dad. I want to be a good and useful child to others."

"Niken, you must remember that this life is yours. As long as your decisions are kind and sincere, there is no need to worry too much about the opinions of others. What matters is how you feel about yourself."

"Yes, Dad. I have to learn to be more confident and not think too much about the views of others. This is my way of life and I have to fight to be better."

"That's right, son. No one can achieve true happiness if they constantly worry about the views of others. You are an extraordinary person Mr. Agus: "True, son. No one can achieve true happiness if they constantly worry about the views of others. You are a wonderful person, and if this is a decision that brings you closer to your goals and religion,

then I will always support you."

"Thank you, Dad. Hearing your support made me even more convinced that I was walking on the right path."

"alright. Now, where's the source of the inspiration that made you want to go headscarf? Are there any special characters or experiences that affect you?"

"There are a few sources of inspiration, Dad. First, when I every day see friends on my campus, especially those who are always hijab ‘hook me’ and also see Rohis organization in the faculty museum. “

"That's great, son. Learning and discussing with people who are in line with your beliefs will open up a deeper understanding."

"Yes, Dad. And also, there was a friend who had inspired me with his patience and his kindness. Although faced with various trials, he is always tough and always trying to get better. Looking at it, I feel motivated to face the changes in my life."

"Good friends are valuable, son. They can be a crutch and a role model for us."

After a long and understanding dialogue with her father, Niken felt increasingly convinced by her decision to go headscarf. He knew that this change would present many challenges, but he also knew that he would not be alone in dealing with it. With her father's support and faith in herself, Niken is ready to face a new journey as a more Islamic woman who looks to close the aurat, embrace peace, and find true happiness in her heart.

Slowly but surely, Niken faced the changes in his life with complete confidence. Despite the challenges and doubts along the way, the support and love of the family, especially his father, gives

the strength for Niken to keep going. Every step she took brought her closeness to God and closer to the true happiness she sought. Niken's transformation into a more Islamic person, with the appearance of closing the aurat, was about seeking truth and peace within oneself, and behind her white hijab, there was real strength, beauty, and brilliance.
