Teach Me (Naina)
Chapter 37


In Alfin's house, the large living room was again filled with humans with various characters. Fahmi sits side by side with his mother, Nadia flanked by his father and mother. The girl lowered her head like when she was met with Alfin the other day.


They talked lightly, full of smiles and laughter. Khadija focused on the wide-hijab girl, looking at her in silence, probing the real figure behind the hijab.


"Who was that?" ask Fahmi's mother who did not get to know Naina.


"Oh, that was Naina's name, Alfin's future wife. The girl who is shy, does not talk much," replied Aminah while smiling to imagine Naina who was in the middle of them earlier.


"Wife candidate Alfin?" nadia's father was a little surprised by the news about Alfin and his future wife.


Nadia was a little jolted, another surprise from a Naina whom she knew as a senseless girl.


Naina dapetin Alfin. The son of an ustadz and respected again, but by the way they know not if Naina child out of wedlock? Hmmm ....


What he did not realize, Khadijah was watching him. Her eyes focused on each expression of Nadia.


"Yes, Ustadz. Sorry, yesterday it was not Alfin did not want to be betrothed to Nadia. We don't know if he has his own choice, so I suggest for Nak Nadia ta'aruf same Fahmi," replied Ahmad slightly regretted because of the meeting the other day.


"Ah .. It's okay, Ustadz. Yes, we can't make it if Alfin already has his own choice. Hopefully happy," said Nadia's father grateful considering that Alfin's job is only a marbot and Fahmi is certainly much better than him.


"Yes, Ustadz. Nak Fahmi is an Egyptian graduate, he is now a lecturer at a religious high school in our city. In addition, Fahmi also led the boarding school owned by his father. Unfortunately, he has no companion. Hence, considering Nadia is an Egyptian graduate as well, I intend to bring them together with good intentions. If they are united, can not they both broadcast the preaching of Islam? How, Ustadz?" ahmad said, patting his nephew on the shoulder.


Nadia stiffened, her hands busy playing the end of the veil to ward off the restlessness. All of that did not escape from Khadijah's observation.


"Ah, yes. Ustadz is right." Nadia's father glanced at the child, while her mother looked down embarrassed and sad, as well as disappointed because of the lies of her husband and child.


"Well, if I'm, anyway, it's up to her son. If they want and like. Let's get married" said Nadia's father, who can't wait to see his son get married.


"Mostly later on Alfin's abis," said Aminah.


"When is Alfin, ma'am?" Nadia's mother asked. She would rather agree that Nadia was married to Alfin, because even though only a marbot was a noble occupation.


"God willing tomorrow's month. It is not good to procrastinate too long, "Aminah replied with a smile. He seemed happy when he told about his future daughter-in-law.


"Mmm... What was his name?" The woman had not clearly heard Naina's name.


"Naina, Ustadzah. Her name is Naina, "repeated Aminah did not forget the smile continues pinned on her lips.


"I think Nadia also knows Alfin's future wife. Yeah, right, Nad?" tanya Khadijah looked at Nadia with a fixed look.


Nadia's body was stung, immediately stiffened because of the question from the Khadijah.


"Lho, is that it? Know where? Naina just stayed here. Yeah, about this two months old. By the way Nadia knows where?" ask Alfin's mother.


Nadia was stunned to not expect her meeting with Naina to be discussed.


"They're familiar, Umi. I think it's been a long time." Khadija smiled as Nadia's father looked at her .


"Ah, not really. We only know that, not accidentally met," said Nadia with her head still down.


Lie after lie will keep popping up to cover up other lies. Endless.


"So you want me to marry you? Or how?" ahmad said he handed the decision to two people who will undergo marriage.


Fahmi smilingly said his decision, "Sorry, Uncle. Not that Fahmi refused, but Fahmi had not thought about getting married. So, what if we let us know first," said Fahmi.


All the old men in the room smiled, nodding their heads in approval to Fahmi's proposal. In the midst of the conversation, Naina's figure really became a bully in the mind of her mother Nadia. The fortune that was supposed to belong to Nadia was now the property of someone else.


He could only sigh, glancing at Fahmi who was as good as Alfin. It's okay, the two young men both have religious knowledge and certainly can guide the wife.


"Oyes, Brother. I didn't think Alfin could be that successful. He built a place of business to help fathers support their children. Absolutely ... maa shaa Allah!" praise Fahmi's mother enough to surprise Nadia and her family.


Especially that man, his eyes squeakingly heard about Alfin's figure. He watched their conversation wondering what happened to Alfin. The man who rejected his son.


"Yes, alhamdulilah even though he said only small businesses. Have you been there?" ahmad asked his brother.


"I went there, Uncle. Don't know if it's Alfin's. Pantes every buy building materials there is always a discount price. Tanya has her own sodara," said Fahmi while smiling considering Alfin is so mysterious.


A young man who has a secret that only he and his God know. For the rest, the left hand does not need to know when the right hand gives.


"By the way, which matrial shop has Alfin? You see, I also often buy building materials for mosques and others," asked Nadia's father who was interested in finding out the secret of the mosque's Marbot.


Khadijah glanced suspiciously, especially with Nadia's reaction that seemed uncomfortable with what she was wearing.


"The one in the city, Ustadz. I also forgot what his name was. Before knowing it was my son's, I also often bought there because in terms of cheaper prices and fast delivery. The service is also satisfactory, does not make customers," said Ahmad praised the performance of all Alfin store employees.


"Al-Barokah, Uncle. The name of the shop, Al-Barokah," sambar Fahmi.


"Al-Barokah?" Nadia's father took a sip of saliva, it was not surprising that the young man who was considered lazy was a successful businessman. The Al-Barokah matrial store is the largest matrial store in the city.


"Yes. What's up, Ustadz?" tanya Khadijah was suspicious.


"Ah, it's okay. It was, after all, not a small shop anymore. That's a big store, which I know is the biggest matrial store in our city. Why do you say small?"


Try to know from yesterday-yesterday if Alfin the owner of the big store, I will keep him. It was too late for Alfin to get married.


He complained inwardly, regretting his decision for following the will of the child. Nadia looked at Fahmi, the young man smiling strangely as he glared avoiding her gaze.


Nadia's mother lowered her head, not because she was sorry, but rather to be grateful that her son had not been betrothed to Alfin. Otherwise, his greedy nature was definitely rampant. He breathed a sigh of relief.


"Does Alfin's future wife know he's got any big business?" busyro asked, remembering Naina.


"No, he only knew Alfin was a marbot. That's it, but it's great, isn't it? He doesn't even bother about work. Rich or not, or not? That's Naina" said Khadijah who made everyone admire the figure of the girl even more.


"His grandson again, he did not want to get out of the car and continued to cry in fear when he knew this was Alfin's parents' house. Try, can you not be confused so Alfin? To the extent that he asked for Brother's help to persuade Naina." Khadijah clucked after telling how Naina reacted in front of him earlier.


"Until that, huh? Alfin's really lucky" said Amaliah.


"But that Naina, isn't it, the kid's out of wedlock."
