Early in the morning, Firdaus had arrived at his Uncle's traditional cottage. His father's younger brother is the successor to his parents who have died since Firdaus was a teenager. He took care of and educated her. He was also the one who guided him to manage his parents' Cottage, Kyai Samuri.
A little nervous, Firdaus conveyed his arrival. That she would marry a two-child widow and ask her Uncle and Aunt to propose and accompany her. Of course he did not say about the embarrassing incident that caused it.
Firdaus simply said that he was ready for marriage.
After that the silence struck.
Firdaus knew, it was hard for his Uncle and Aunt to accept all of this. But not in the hope his uncle even chuckles.
"You're really great, Le. Uncle is proud of you. You are right to fully practice the sunna of the Apostle."
Firdaus is a bit blank. Whatdoes thatmean?
"All the wives of the Prophet are widows, except Aisha, right? And you followed him. You're really great, son."
Firdaus.
True also said Uncle, why did he forget that? He was too busy thinking about "what people say" turns out.
" Wedding is the longest worship. Infinite fields of reward, let alone the orphans inside. Everything you give to them will be your charity. All their deeds, their rewards will flow to you. Your sweat drops for them to learn, will return to be a reward," murmured Uncle again.
" They can work and support the Mother and the little family she will build in the future, because the knowledge gained from your labors will continue to flow the reward to you."
"Trust me, your choice is not wrong."
Uncle patted his shoulder steadily.
Firdaus. But there was something a little in his heart. The idea is not as good as Uncle.
As if knowing what Firdaus had in mind, his Uncle continued :
"Educate them well. If one day, the child does not walk as expected, it will not burden you. You have educated him well, then it is their responsibility. But his kindness flows to you. Believe me, good things make good things "
Firdaus is relieved. No more burden on his heart.
And the day of the proposal.
Maryam had dressed up pretty and waited in the room. All letters have been handled by Mr. Dahlan. Although, the history is dark, but there is not a single drop of shame implied.
Firdaus has asked Mr. Dahlan to arrange for everything to appear natural and not because of the excitement of the masses.
Of course, this can only happen because of the willingness of Kades
"Believe me Miss Kades, if Maryam has been martyred as the wife of Mr. Kyai, then Mr. Kades will not be given the slightest opportunity. Mr. Kyai does not even hesitate to do hard things, because the wife is his dignity. So let all like two people fall in love and get married so that Mr. Kyai's honor is preserved."
Miss Kades was a mangosteen and did not complicate it. Even this morning he came and sat at the very front.
The groom's party came.
Maryam peeked out from the gap of the room curtains, she really felt like a pingitan girl, even though her son was two.
a young man, sacrificing and gloating......
oops! Maryam shut her mouth.
Is he Kyai Firdaus?
Instantly, imagine the study three years ago. No, not because Mary was in love. But remember the excitement of the study at that time. How not? Mr. Kyai is young and handsome. You can imagine how the reaction of the average residential mother is still young.
Hmm, Supreme Heaven Face, he whispered in heart. Mary smiled at her own smile. Remembering his nickname to Mr. Kyai. Who would have thought that the highest heaven was now his.
His heart immediately went out. It's okay if Mr. Kyai is not too rich. With his obedience, in shaa Alloh everything will be easy. May he take her to the highest heaven, Paradise, his prayer in heart.
Uh, isn't that his name, is it?
Maryam giggled to herself with her clumsiness.
"Opaan sich, smile at your own smile. Shameful to know." His sister immediately pinched his shoulder. "Remember age!"
Maryam pouting.
After the ceremony, Maryam came out to give her answer. All eyes looked at him. Mr. Kades didn't even blink. Madam Mariaya is like an angel of heaven, this afternoon.
Mr. Kyai was also looking at him. For a second, just a second Kyai sir's gaze was blown away. After that, his eyes were not the same. Maryam who is ready to spread the charm, so it goes awry.
Finally Maryam just sat frozen beside the older brother who became his guardian. His feelings are not out of whack. It was hard to say yes.
Everyone's waiting.
Silent silence Maryam smiled, when she saw the tense face of Mr. Kyai.
Thank goodness! Good at cocky.His ridicule is in the heart.
After being followed by her brother, then Maryam nodded her head.
"Alhamdulillah" That's Mr. Dahlan's voice. It felt like Maryam wanted to laugh Who proposed, who was happy.
After the Dzuhur prayer, continued the Kabul ijab event.
Legitimate
Legitimate
Legitimate.
Everyone is thankful. Now, Firdaus and Maryam, were lawfully husband and wife.
"Congratulations, Miss Firdaus. May Sakinah, mawadah, warohmah" Bu Kades smiled happily while hugging Maryam.
" Maile .." Mr. Kades approached, his eyes unfolded. Firdaus immediately sensed there was a threat. He had a small shoulder next to him. He already has, so do not go beyond the limits, his eyes imply.
Maria's heart warmed.
Mr. Kades smiled bitterly, "Congratulations yes" he almost whispered.
Her little Madam Maria was getting more and more unachievable, her mind sad.
On the other hand, Bu Kades smiled in satisfaction. After this, no more annoying pebbles.
Yes, it's not easy being Bara's wife. The office whose heart was still left behind in the past. Thankfully, the past did not respond. It made it easier for her to remain enthroned as Bu Kades.
" It's all done, Kyai." Mr. Dahlan. As agreed, Maryam and her son will live in the house of Paradise. It is a bit far from the school of children, but can be reached 1 hour drive by car and Firdaus has promised, will bring his own children Maryam.
Miss Kades smiled a lot.
" Good Mr. Dahlan, thank you very much for your help." Firdaus hugged Dahlan.
"Mother Mary was very lucky, "some neighbors were happy and hugged Maryam.
Yeah, correct. Maryam was very lucky. His heart also acknowledges it. But when he remembered Firdaus' cold gaze, his heart slightly shuddered. It felt like this man was not the same as his highest heaven three years ago. His attitude is very different. Was what used to be imaging? Or.., uh..,? Ah right too. No one wants to be forced into marriage. Especially with a widow with two children. While Firdaus was young, handsome, charismatic and a kyai.
Maryam so feel funny Usually, the old Mr. Kyai and his teenage wife who just bloomed. But in this position, everything is reversed......
Duh, is Mr. Kyai actually reluctant to marry her. All because of force?
Hadeh Maryam...koq use his name?
Forgetting that everything happened because of pressure?
Yeah, I must..
All right, he'll know himself.
Mary sighed heavily .
Hope that had soared, now the tub slid down. The turmoil hit again. The journey to the village of Pak Kyai is quiet and feels long.
