Pledge of Love Rumi
go with Aunt

In a time that has begun to warm the sunlight.

Debby's ready to wait for Aunt Maryam to come pick up. He sat in the front gazebo, where it had been renovated several times.

It used to be made of bamboo, then the more here it has changed to be more sturdy. Because Abi likes the place, make it a permanent gazebo. With cement and sand as the seat. Then the poles are cast in concrete to make it more sturdy.

The roof is also made of strong tile, with brown paint.

Gurgling sound, from a mini waterfall that is made as beautiful as possible. Some yellow bamboo also grows in the corner of the pond to add to the beautiful place.

Place koi pet ustadz Irsyad, swim freely in it.

In the past Ustadz Irsyad kept only five tails, now it has grown more. There were even some that he gave to relatives or friends who happened to visit, but wanted the fish.

Back to her lovebirds who were sitting together, chatting lightly. Tell me about the things that interest Debby a little, to focus on listening.

"Lately, I've been a bit of an imam at one of the mosques near the office."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes, and even. If there's any extra work until I stay, on Thursday night I'll be asked to lead the commission."

"MashaAllah, what's the new story?"

"Well, I don't think it's important to tell." Rumi answered while fixing Debby's overriding snail.

"But I'm proud to hear it. It's just right, if in Bandung there is additional work you like hard if on the phone. This is how I understand."

"Dear, I did not accidentally either. So since one of the kyai who became the imam in the mosque was sick? I became a priest twice. In all three kyai it invites me to talk."

"Then?"

"Well, he asked, which cottage am I from?"

"I'm just saying, I've never had a mole that was really moody. Just a few months ago, join Mbah in the days I graduated Junior High. About seven months in Magelang. Because I'm not at home so I'm back in Jakarta."

"Oh so Rumi's sister used to live in Magelang?"

"Yes, the intention is to take a vacation first. But somehow, Mbah asked me to stay. Actually the same with Noah too, but he even cried all night just as Abi Umma wants to go home tomorrow."

"if my husband doesn't cry?" Ask Debby, smile jail.

"I don't really want to stay either. I thought again, I'm a man. Moreover, there was one friend who was two years older than me, for several days I was there was a friend who was quite familiar. So rich think, it doesn't matter if you stay. Finally, I agreed to be there. School there for a few months. But yes it is... I began to get sick often, if again miss Umma. So rich Umma often went to Magelang to see me, and the great was immediately healed."

"Geez to his side?"

"I don't know either, Dek. But it's like that. I if I stay away from Umma for more than two weeks must be sick. Don't know why?" Rumi chuckled, holding Debby's hand. "But thank God, when Umma was not around, I only got sick a few times."

"Well! Sick a few times? When's? How come I don't know?"

"Two days after Umma's departure, one Sunday, and one month." Rumi answered with a smile.

"Iihh, I don't know anyway? All I know is that Rumi's sister mediates me." Debby murmured, remembering those times.

"That's me again with my bad body, Dek. That's why I sleep a lot, right?"

"But cheating, why don't you talk to me!"

"I don't want to talk. Just the mind and mood at the time were not conducive. Remember to feel guilty again. Sorry, dear."

"Huhuhu, swear! Yes, you did at that time."

Rumi chuckled, then rubbed Debby's head. "Sorry dear."

"I'm sorry, because you've now become a kind husband."

"Yes time? How am I supposed to realize this now?" Debby chuckles as Rumi pulls her cheek, squashy. Until shortly heard the sound of Aunt Maryam's car. So that makes Debby release Rumi's arm that he hugged earlier.

The two move, Rumi leads Debby to the gate. Greet Aunt Mary and leave Debby to the thirty-two-year-old woman.

Before Debby left, Rumi told her to be nice and not to come home before four in the afternoon. Debby who understood immediately nodded, then kissed the back of the husband's hand.

The two women got into the car, honking just to say goodbye and the car drove away.

Rumi who was still standing in front of the fence observed the car until it disappeared. Then he breathed, and went back into the house.

Because today there is still work that he must send later in the afternoon, he rushed into his house.

***

At one of the malls.

Debby and Maryam walk together. Before reaching their destination, the two passed through the door of the supermarket area.

"Debby–" a woman's voice made Debby and Maryam look back.

"MashaAllah Ma'am Shafa?" Debby saw Shafa there. He approached the girl who was already smiling widely, standing by the side of a middle-aged woman who still looked a little young She was Aida.

Debby shook hands, then hugged the woman with the display hijab she knew. "O Allah Ma'am Shafa how are you? I miss."

"Alhamdulillah well, if kangen why never play?"

"Hehe," Debby just chuckled. Because he had once played to his house, at that time Shafa was not at home and only met with Aida. But instead of a welcome or anything, He even got bad treatment from the mother of two children.

"Main tomorrow-tomorrow to my house." Shafa said as he let go of his embrace, then shook Mary's hand politely.

While Debby glanced at the mother of Shafa, a look of dislike was still highlighted from the eyes of the mother of two children.

"inshaAllah Maak, I will try to play sometime. You're afraid of disturbing Mbak Shafa too, who is in college again."

"Geez, not even. Anyway if Rumi is in Bandung, you play to my house huh. Just chat me."

"I... Yes, mbak." Debby replied with a bad feeling, slowly she tried to direct her hand, inviting Aida for a handshake. But the middle-aged woman turned her hand away, as if she did not want to be touched by Debby's hand.

"Shafa, yuk. Qonni called mom." He walked first leaving three women there. Debby was slightly stunned, then clasped her hand slowly while lowering it.

As Shafa muttered, he turned to Debby. "Deb, sorry. My mother's a little tired. So he's in a hurry."

"No, Daddy." Debby smiling.

"After all, if you're alone at home just play to my place." Shafa hugs Debby's body and then shakes Mary's hand again, saying goodbye. "Assalamualaikum, I'll go first."

"Walaikumsalam warahmatullah." Debby and Maryam answered almost simultaneously.

"That's her mother?" Ask Maryam.

"Yes, Aunt."

"Is it so, or is it because of the rush?"

"Perhaps because he's in a hurry, he's usually very friendly."

"Is that so?"

Debby smiled, nodding. "yuk lah– We go."

"Yes" answered Mary. Both of them continued their steps towards the destination.
