...****************...

Tonight, at Hendrawan's family home, Alif and his family are having dinner together. At dinner, there must always be a conversation they are talking about. Alif, said that he would return to America, where their jewelry business is currently being loved by the local community. And, tomorrow Alif plans to go to America.

" Our business Alhamdulillah can be widely known by the community there . H.S Jewelry is really hypnotizing the upper class in the United States Superpower! "

" God, this is all by the permission of Allah Ta'ala, and, our hard work. So, our business can grow rapidly, Alhamdulillah ! "

" Alhamdulillah, yes Ma. Ah yes Alif, what time are you leaving? "

" About 13:30 Pa ! "

" Yes, take a private plane, right ? "

" I don't want to queue, it would take a very long time if I didn't wear a private plane. I, uh, want to see the jewelry store right away, and, uh, see our mall over there. After that, I'll come back I want to find out the Existence of Jihan ! "

Mother, and, Father Alif, were completely amazed by their first son. Alif, he's brave, and not afraid of failure. The company was initially small, now growing rapidly since Hendrawan retired, and, replaced by his son.

Now, PT. H.S Indonesia changed its name to H.S Group. They used to develop businesses in the food field, now not only in the food field. But some of their fields are mastered, such as the chemical industry, namely the manufacture of bath soap, and shampoo. Then, in the field of gold and silver jewelry. And some other business. If Alif mastered several fields, different from Bhishma. He only focused on one area, namely the clothing industry. However, Bisma is also no less great. He, has many factories almost all over Indonesia. So, no wonder if Bisma has a lover of an international model, as well as a drama actress like Karina.

Alif, in contrast to Bhishma, who is still tempted by beautiful and sexy women. This handsome guy, prefers a veiled woman. Compared, the open like Karina . Therefore, Alif did not like to be betrothed to Sania. Break up with Sania, making her look more confident. And, Bhishma, is determined to bring her younger sibling to this mansion. After that, perhaps he would ask both of his parents to ta'aruf with a woman.

" Sania, no longer appears before us. Mama, so happy, thank you son ! "

" Yes Ma, Alif doesn't love her anyway. It's nothing, he's just like Bhishma's fiancee. His hobby, wearing clothes lacking materials. I'm not comfortable seeing it ! "

" You're right, if he wants to be a little more polite in dress. Maybe, Mama will like it! "

" Papa agrees with you two ! "

" Oh yes Pa, don't forget as long as I'm on a business trip. Please, tell someone called Singgih, he's my subordinate. I want to, she's investigating about Jihan . Away better than my previous man! "

Alif, drink the water that has been prepared. The maids, still lined up neatly waiting for their employers.

" Silk! "

" Yes Young Master, I am present ! "

Alif, turned to look at the middle-aged woman's face.

" How many times have I reminded you. When we're eating, please don't have to line up like that. I don't want to, you guys are exhausted. So, you better have dinner first in please rest. After that, clean up the dining table. We are, still long here ! ".

The butler nodded in response, he immediately told the maids, to rest as his Young Master had commanded.

" It's true what you did Lif, it's a pity to have to stand like that as long as we eat ! "

" I too, see it so. And, it just so happened that a few months ago playing to Bhishma's house. I saw them, treated the maids, so well. So, I remember the maids in our residence ! ".

" There's a plausible value of a bisma huh? Even though he can't pray, he's a good boy. Papa hopes, she is not a match with Karina Sexy actress like how can keep Aqila ! "

Alif agreed, he nodded in agreement.

" Oh yes, Pa Ma . Alif, first yes, you guys finish the meal. If it doesn't run out, let it be Ningsih's business ! "

" Okay, my son, you're chatty too ! "

" Right, Alif, the more chatty the day is Ma ! "

" Yes, sorry ! "

Then, Alif passed, he immediately climbed the elevator and pressed the number 5 button. As soon as he arrived, he immediately picked up the landline and contacted his personal assistant.

" Hasan, please help me prepare my clothes for one week. We are going to travel abroad, precisely the United States, Washington DC ! "

" Do you want to know more about the development of the jewelry business, and, our mall there ? "

" Yes, H.S Mall, and, H.S Jewelry! "

" Yes, that's what I mean, young master! (Yes that's what I mean, Young Master! "

" Thanks Hasan, Barakallah (may Allah give you blessings) ! "

" Aamiin, well sir then I will immediately carry out the duties of the Father ! "

" Wa'alaikumusallam ! "

A few minutes later, Alif's assistant arrived. He, knock on the door of the superior's room.

" IN ! "

" I'm facing you Young Master! "

" Yes, please Hasan. Sorry, trouble you ! "

" No sir, I'm glad you can count on me ! "

" You don't worry, I'll give you a bonus. What is the 2 month salary? "

" Yuhuui, I'm glad to hear that. I will be excited, Young Master ! "

" This you, sometimes calling me Young Master, sometimes Father, is weird ! "

" Ah forgive me Young Master, from now on I will call you like that, how? "

" It's up to you Hasanuddin Al Buchori! "

" Yuhui, you are indeed the best Young Master ! "

Next Day...

" After the Dzuhur prayer you must leave immediately. Not on schedule, but it's just really urgent. And, our plane pilot said, if there are some obstacles if we force to leave at that hour ! ".

" All right, I get it ! "

" Mr. Assalamualaikum. Alif ! ".

" Wa'alaikumusallam, Mr. Omani. How are you? "

" I am great. How about you Mr. Alif ? (Very good. How about you Mr. Alf?)

" I’m fine, oh yes soon we will leave right ? "

" Yes right, then I will first enter the plane. Hopefully, we're safe until our destination, Mr. Alif ! "

" Hopefully ! "

After that, Oman said goodbye. Meanwhile, Alif, and, Hasan waited.

" Young Master, we are allowed to enter the plane! "

" All right, let's get on the plane! ".

Alif, and, Hasan then entered the plane. After wearing the safety belt, they prayed.

" Hasan, you lead the prayer ! "

" Good Young Master, well,

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ مَجْرَاهَا وَمُرْسَاهَا إِنَّ رَبِّي لَغَفُورٌ رَحِيمٌ وَمَا قَدَرُوا اللَّهَ حَقَّ قَدْرِهِ

Bismillaahi majreehaa wa mursaahaa, inna rabbii laghafuur-rahiim. Wa maa qadarullaaha haqqa

Meaning: “By mentioning the name of Allah at the time of sailing and anchoring. Verily, my Lord is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.” (QS Hud:41). Aamiin Yes Robbal'alamiin! "

" , لَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِاللهِ العَلِيِّ العَظِيْمِ"

Laa haula wala quwwata

Meaning: There is no power or strength except by Allah.

" Young Master, you always taught me to pray at all times. At first I was annoyed, there was a leader who set his subordinates up to personal matters . However, after a few years of working with you, praying is like an obligation for me. From there I learned, and understood, that it is not God Ta'ala who needs us. But, we who need God, whatever it is keep praying, I really thank you ! "

" Because, we are fellow Muslims, it is fitting to remind each other. I too, thank you, thanks to you being diligent I can do any job on time ! "

Both of them are now thinking, on the way always take the time to remember his name. However, we will not know what will happen in the journey, so both always ask for protection to Allah Ta'ala.

Seriate...
