The Destiny of Widya's Love
11 Stewards Looking for Love

Steward returns home to Leiden with a heart of anger, heartbreak, sadness all into one, making Steward no longer care about anything, so Steward's work is just drunk, drunk and constantly drunk. His family had been trying to get Steward to stop drinking and working again, but whatever the power, Steward remained drunk, and kept calling Widya by the name.

Amanda, trying to get close to a drunk Steward lying at the bar table, midnight. Amanda ventured out to pick Steward up to go home. The next day, as Steward regains consciousness from his drunkenness, Steward is confused and realizes that his body is wearing anything with Amanda. The woman next to him was asleep.

“Oh.. God, what have I done." thought Steward screwed up while ruffling his hair.

Steward, standing up and moving towards the bathroom to clean himself up, then exited the room, leaving Amanda, heading for the kitchen. It turns out that in the kitchen there are Mama, Papa and Linda who are chatting laughing while enjoying breakfast the morning. Not with Steward, this time Steward only took two slices of polished bread with a glass of milk. Soon, one by one family members went to continue their work routines. Aman is out shy to see Steward but Steward is indifferent to Amanda.

"Amanda, I went” said Steward just passed by leaving Amanda.

Since then, Steward's indifferent attitude towards Amanda tried to avoid Amanda. Steward only works during the day at work, and at night drunk again.

“Steward, can we talk.”

“Oo..Amanda”answere Steward lazy.

Before Amanda started the conversation, Steward started the conversation.

“Amanda, I'm sorry to you, about yesterday.”

“You mean?”

“We do that, when I'm drunk, I don't realize."

THE PLAQUE!

Amanda came out crying, left the coffee shop, Steward just silently received Amanda treatment, punishment from Amanda, Steward felt he deserved it.

“Hey, Steward, don't play Amanda as you like.., Amanda likes you since sitting in Junior High School said Thomas angrily.

Thomas leaves the coffee shop and calls Amanda to catch up with Amanda.

Thomas is a fireman in the town of Leiden, a friend of Steward and Steward's neighbors as well. They grew up together, and knew each other because the inhabitants of Leiden had a small population.

“I can't keep this up.., I have to meet Widya, I want to ask for an explanation” Thought Steward.

This morning, Steward had prepared the milk needs to be distributed to suppliers in Amsterdam, as well as to stop by Lira's house.

During the day, after completing routine tasks, Steward stopped by Lira's house to meet with Lira.

Ding..Dong!.

“Ooo Steward, ayoo enter”Ucap Anthony.

“Hai Anthony, there's Widya."

“Come in first, there's something we want to tell you."

“Lira."

“Iya.. briefly.”

Shortly afterwards Steward, Anthony, and Lira sat together in the living room. Ten minutes of silence without anyone speaking, Steward finally asked Widya.

“Widya where?” Steward swiggled left and right, with no results.

“That's what we want to talk to you about, Steward."

“What's up?” Steward.

Finally Lira started the speaker with eyes that looked at each other with Anthony.

“Actually Widya has returned to Indonesia since four days ago."

“You mean Lir?"

“Yes.. Widya has returned to her country, Widya is no longer in this house."

Steward immediately drowned helplessly, his eyes immediately accommodated tears that were ready to race to be dropped on Steward's cheeks.

“Actually Widya forbids to tell you,” Said Lira in doubt

“Tell what Lir."

“But I see you earnestly and seriously at widya, then I tell you, if actually Widya chose you over Rafa, it's just that she couldn't have chosen you whose beliefs are different.” Kira.

“But because of your stupidity, making Widya hurt you, actually what were you thinking at that time?" Ask Lira to Steward.

“Yesterday, Rafa his friend widya was introducing himself as Widya's future husband." Steward said slowly.

“Hhmmm” Lira looks at each other with Anthony.

Then the Lira explained her case between Widya, Rafa, and their two families. The matchmaking plan between Widya and Rafa. Steward who was just silent heard all these explanations.

Steward suddenly stood without saying goodbye, his mind glaring somewhere, out of the Lira's house. Steward just walked by his footsteps home.

After the incident day after day he did not find peace. He felt careless, he missed Widya, Lira said that he could not be with Widya because he was not a Muslim.

That day his footsteps brought Steward. For almost two hours Steward just walked on, until his Step made Steward Tired and Steward sit on the steps of the terrace of a building.

A few moments later, azaan rang out from the building. Several people in long robes entered the building. Steward's body shifted slightly to the side as many people came rushing into the building. The entrance was opened by one of them. Seen by Steward, the people worship the same as Steward had seen in the church yesterday when accompanying Widya worship.

Steward was fixated on seeing the current scene, strange but beautiful. There was a vibration in the chest, hearing the sound coming from inside the building. Then, until the moment Steward's shoulder was patted by one of them which made Steward shocked.

Steward sat on the sofa and was served warm tea at the table by a man.

“There can I help?” Ask Imam Sofyan, an imam of the mosque.

“It looks like you have a problem”Next.

“My fingers are your religion”Spontan Steward answered that. Somehow he felt there was calm when he heard the Adhan reverberate.

“Sorry are you pushy?", asked Imam Sofyan.

"No, my few days of calm melted away. But I couldn't find. Please teach me about your religion." Steward.

“Now come with me, let me teach you how to be holy, because in my religion always be holy in worship called Wudhu. After seeing and paying attention to Imam Sofyan wudhu, followed by a steward attentively.

After ablution, Steward and Imam Sofyan sat cross-legged, facing each other holding the book he had picked up on a shelf glued to the wall near the building's support posts. This book is not the Qur’an but this book is a book about the miracle of God's creation, about the gift of God, and the greatness of God's creation that is associated with the natural circulation of the semester."

Steward's questions about the oneness of God, the relation of the universe to the evidence of God's creation, and his explanation in the Qur'an’an. All of the answers from Imam Sofyan have answered all of Steward's questions, Steward's curiosity about God's existence, which made Steward distrustful of God's existence all along.

Steward now knows why one of Widya's reasons is mad at him. The woman was angry because she was touched when she was not yet halal. He also expressed his heart's intention to convert to Islam.

“Alhamdulillah” Say Mr Imam.

“Alright, tomorrow come again here at 8 am,” Imam Sofyan continued.

“Good Mr. Imam."

Shaking hands with Imam Sofyan, Steward left the mosque in one of Amsterdam. The mosque consists of a number of volunteers, who do the work in addition to their regular week-long activities.

Each board member contributes to what they control, from consumption to social media. Board positions are not paid work, the board ensures that all activities run smoothly. Most of the activities in this mosque are where people want to convert to Islam, and want to know Islam.

At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, Steward arrived at eight o'clock less, greeted by Imam Sofyan. Permitted to enter. Then, Steward was directed to sit and be attended by people with a number of about fifteen people who enthusiastically attended the moments of Steward's martyrdom.

After beginning with the opening by Imam Sofyan, as the imam of the mosque of AL-Ikhlas, the recitation of the shahadah began. Steward was invited to sit in the middle of facing Imam Sofyan witnessed by the people surrounding Steward and Imam Sofyan, then all began. Without tears on Steward's cheeks. Tears of happiness and coolness that invigorate the whole heart and soul of Steward.

Almost every day Steward took time to come to the Al-Ikhas Mosque to study religion with Imam Sofyan. Sharing the problem and telling about the problem Steward faced to ask for a Solution to Imam Sofyan. Imam Sofyan always told Steward to ask God, the story to God, to get a solution to Steward's own problem.

Then Steward was taught the following prayer steps and procedures with short surah readings that are easy to memorize, including Al-Fatiha which must be memorized.

The deeper Steward knows God, the calmer his heart, but always pinned prayers for his soul mate. He also asked for help from Mr. Sofyan to pray for him to be soon met with his soul mate. Steward became a pilgrim who diligently visited the assembly of Science in the mosque Al-Ikhlas, the more Steward noticed by the Women who steal the view with Steward, with his handsome face with the light of Islam perfecting the good looks of Steward.

There was a friend in the Steward Council, Adam his name, introduced a beautiful veiled woman friend to Steward, according to Adam, who knows a mate. This veiled woman is called Fatimah. But for some reason as long as he knew Fatimah. There is no vibration like he felt when he knew Widya. She misses Widya.
