Ivan clasped Khaira's fingers with affection. His left hand held the Dew, while Dawn in a relaxed position walked beside the mother. The four of them walked towards the residence of the ustadz Hanan.
This is the first time they have visited after returning from their Umrah plus trip. Ivan wanted to exchange ideas with Ustadz Hanan and tell the relationship between him and Khaira so that there was no misunderstanding between the residents of the cottage.
“Assalamu’alaikum .... “ Ivan and Khaira throw each other a smile when they both greet each other.
“Wa’alaikumussalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh ... “ ustadz Hanan appeared before them with a face full of familiarity, “Eh, who just returned home umrah already on back here ....”
“Alhamdulillah Ustadz,” Ivan smiled as he welcomed ustadz Hanan's hand to shake hands.
“Abi, dedek bring ole-ole for abi tama umi .... “ Dew provides paper bag that has been prepared by the mother from home.
“Eh, there are dede and mas .. “ ustadzah Fatimah is happy to see their presence, “Umi already miss you guys .... “
Dawn and Dew soon drew near and salim at ustadz Hanan and his wife. Ustadzah Fatimah kissed both of them with a feeling of longing that was very big. Their presence has made their life more colorful. Moreover, he had been with the two since the beginning of their presence in this world.
“How is the trip?” ustadz Hanan patted Ivan on the shoulder warmly.
“Excellent,” Ivan smiles widely.
Khaira and the twins follow Fatimah's steps toward the back letting their husbands continue their conversation.
“I saw your face so fresh,” ustadz Hanan said with a smile that did not disappear from his face.
“Alhamdulillah Allah gave me a second chance to gather together with the little family I so longed for,” Ivan said solemnly, “It feels like for a second I don't want to be away from them.”
“Although it must be paid dearly with the departure of aunt ...” said ustadz Hanan slowly.
“I will not waste my mother's departure. I promise and you witness it, I will try my whole life to make them happy.”
“May your promises and wishes be granted by God. Aamiin ya Rabbal ‘aalamiin .. “ ustadz Hanan guarantees all Ivan's sayings.
Both are still having serious conversations about work. Ivan also had asked for a new building that stood opposite to the front of the archway of ponpes al-Ijtihad Ustadz Hanan.
Ustadz Hanan vividly tells that there is an Islamic housing development plan that will be made as many as one hundred units that will target the upper middle class. Moreover, today more and more young people are migrating and want to have an Islamic residence with more modern facilities.
Ivan listened enthusiastically to Hanan's explanation. He has not commented on all the words of Ustadz Hanan but is quite interested in the future prospects he is told.
“Me and Berli have agreed to work together to manage everything. I hope you want to join as an investor in this project,” ustadz Hanan said seriously when ending the story.
“Pretty interesting,” Ivan mangosteen-mute commented on ustadz Hanan's remark.
“If you are willing, I will not contact Andreas my old friend who is engaged in real estate in the city. He was very interested when Berli was looking for investors for the construction of this Islamic residence.”
“I'll talk about everything with Rara. Now all mine has moved a name for the twins. I don't have it now,” Ivan said casually.
“How about you get a baby again, if your property is not available?” ustadz Hanan asked in a joking tone.
“I will work diligently if Yang Kuasa gives his gift again,” Ivan replied seriously.
“How so? You interested?” ustadz Hanan still hopes Ivan will join him in a major Muslim housing project.
“Prospect and profit is quite promising. But I will still discuss with the mother of children,” now Ivan said more seriously.
“In the neighborhood will later be equipped with a shopping center as well as a large mosque. We will also cooperate with one sharia bank that will become a partner in the payment problem.”
“I will give an answer as soon as the twins give their decision.”
“Hopeful news,” ustadz Hanan said expectantly.
“I want to talk about something serious with you,” Ivan finally realized his intention to come to meet ustadz Hanan.
Ustadz Hanan looked at Ivan seriously. He sharpened his hearing to ascertain what Ivan would say to him.
“Citizen many who do not know my marriage with Rara. I don't want people to think negatively about us. Rara and I wanted to celebrate our wedding. When do you think is the right time to do it?”
“Do you need EO for this event?”
“Ha?” sontak Ivan chuckled at ustadz Hanan's question, “Tak need not use EO services. Only a small thanksgiving that invites the residents of the cottage and who are around us. Rara and I also want to share with the people around here. But I guess if the tent we can use.”
“Alright,” ustadz Hanan said while mangosteen, “I think Thursday night we can invite the residents of the cottage to come. The day after the tent belongs to the cottage can be used. Moms here would love to help.”
“Alhamdulillah,” Ivan felt relieved to hear the words of ustadz Hanan.
“Daddy ..dede want to bobok .... “ Dew appeared from behind while rubbing his eyes that began to turn red followed by Fajr, his mother and the ustadzah Fatimah.
“Wah, princess dad is sleepy.” Ivan immediately grabbed the Dew in his carrier. He looked at his wife in a clingy manner, “We go home now?”
Khaira smiled as she nodded her head.
Finally the four of them left the residence of Ustadz Hanan with relief because what they had planned to get a positive response from his best friend. Ivan held the sleeping Dew, while his right hand held his wife's fingers affectionately with Dawn walking in front of them while humming children's songs.
The clock has shown at 8 p.m. Ivan felt an incredible happiness. After discussing with Khaira all day, his wife allowed to join the CV that would be built Ustadz Hanan with Berli.
Initially Khaira did not agree if his name was registered Ivan as the owner of the business that will stand and be registered as a business entity partner ustadz Hanan and Berli. After listening to Ivan's entire story, let alone this new venture involving Ustadz Hanan who had helped him from the beginning, Khaira finally agreed to join.
The clock has shown at 8 p.m. Not feel the preoccupation of chatting with the elders of the cottage in the mosque after performing prayers Isya Ivan glanced at the clock on his wrist.
“Wah, already at 8 ... “ ustadz Hanan said quietly while looking at the wall clock that is near the mosque pulpit.
“I say goodbye Ustadz ... “ said Ivan immediately stood up slowly and began to greet the kyai and elders who also began packing to return to their respective homes.
Arriving inside the house he saw a quiet atmosphere. There was no sound of the twins who usually still chattering ria. Slowly he went to the main room he now occupied with Khaira. When he opened the door there was no figure of his wife inside.
Ivan believes Khaira is in the twin's room. He exited his room and slowly headed towards the twin's room which was next to theirs. He knocked on the door of the room.
“What's up Sir?” bu Nuri opened the door and was surprised to see Ivan standing before her.
“What mother is inside?” Ivan felt uncomfortable to look into the twins room.
“Oh ..” bu Nuri understands that Ivan is looking for the whereabouts of his wife, “So mom said she wants to go next door to clean up the rest of the twins clothes there.”
“Thank you Ma'am,” Ivan hurriedly parted to find out that Khaira was in the side house.
He quickly headed to Khaira's residence and saw the housekeeper Dipo and Toto sir who was playing cards on the porch of the house.
“Assalamu’alaikum .... “ Ivan says hello to both.
“Wa’alaikumussalam, good night Mr Ivan?” both answered.
“What is the bundle of twins inside?” without further ado Ivan looked at the two.
“True Sir. It's been almost an hour mom inside,” Dipo explained.
“Thank you Mr. Toto, Dipo,” Ivan smiled as he nodded his head quickly.
He and Khaira had agreed to donate Khaira's residential house to a shelter for visiting guests at the cottage, because Khaira and her children would jointly occupy his home.
Mr. Toto and Dipo continue to work with him as security guards and private drivers who will help the mobility of his small family. Of course with the financial increase that will be given to both who have been accompanying Khaira and the twins.
Ivan walked into the unlocked house. A thin smile adorned his face looking at the conditions inside the house that looked simple. A small shelf contains a neatly arranged arrangement of books.
He had never set foot in Khaira's house. These two days he was busy with meetings with Danu. Many files he had to sign after the long vacation they had.
After being satisfied to see the arrangement of a simple living room in the house that will soon change ownership, Ivan's gaze turned to the three rooms in front of him. He walked over and observed the two rooms that were next to each other. He was sure that the room in front of him right now was Khaira's room while next to her was the twin's room.
***Hallo loyal fans Ivan and Rara\, see you again. Now hopefully the author is smoothed in continuing the story of their little family. Greetings to my readers all .... ***
