The Path of Love Halimah
Episode 14's. Home sweet Home

After the dawn prayer, I rushed into the kitchen to make fried rice at the request of Abang Hafiz last night.

It turns out that in the kitchen my mother-in-law is cooking water to make Kyai Rifa'i's favorite coffee

"So you want to make your village fried rice?" ask Umi.

"So Umi.." I answered briefly with a smile.

"What is it?" ask Umi again

"Like the usual fried rice kok Umi. "I answered while taking a knife to start peeling the onion skin and assisted by my mother-in-law.

"Are you used to cooking in the kitchen?" ask me again.

"Halima often helps Mom make cakes, Umi.. Mother is selling cakes every day at the market, so Halimah always helps her" I replied while continuing to prepare fried rice ingredients.

"Suykurlah's.. Even though you are still young, your behavior is quite mature.. Umi so calmly let you guys to build your own household.. Hafiz was his son rather adorable, he liked to be noticed the most.. Hopefully with the attitude of maturity Halimah can make your household sadinah, mawaddah and warohmah.. Amiin" said Umi while stroking my shoulder affectionately.

"Aamiya.. Thanks Umi.." I replied smiling happily because I felt so loved by my in-laws.

We enjoyed breakfast so warm.

Abi and Umi did not hesitate to reply to each other praising my fried rice.

Brother Hafizpun like that, he was so eager to praise my cooking and mother in front of his parents.

I blushed in shame.

After breakfast, Hafiz and I walked down the boarding road to the house we were going to occupy.

The house we will occupy is one of the tenement houses located not far from his parents' house, precisely at the back of the road.

Housing that is prepared for Pondok Pesantren employees.

There are approximately 12 compartments of houses side by side with similar shapes and the same paint color.

Green colored leaves.

Hafiz's brother guided me to the back of the house on the left.

He then took the key with his pants and opened the door.

"Assalamualaikum." he said slowly.

"Welcome to our home" he said, smiling at me.

"Only a tenement, but may it be heaven for our household.. May Halimah be at home here. "he said again to me with a meaningful look.

"God my house is my paradise." I replied smilingly.

"Aamiya.. Somewhat dusty, we still have to clean first. "he said again.

"We clean up together Bang." I replied again

He's nodding.

"Do you have to ask for help from some students?" ask her again.

"No need to bang.. We just clean it up.. It's not too dirty anyway." I shook my head.

"Alright." she replied again and began to thrust a broom at me with a smile.

The smile that began to melt my heart.

We cleaned our house and told a lot of things.

Brother Hafiz told me all about the Pesantren Cottage I live in now.

He also told me about his college days and his childhood which was raised in this boarding school.

He also told me about the house we live in is actually has been quite a long time yes, since he began teaching in this pesantren with the aim of wanting to be more independent.

"The next day we went to buy furniture in the city.. Halimah list of needs whatever we have to buy ya.." he said again to me.

I nodded slowly.

All clean-up work was completed right when Azan Dzuhur reverberated.

"Finished prayers we have lunch in the cafeteria.. Halimah today does not need to cook first. "the answer is understanding.

"OK" I replied.

He smiled then anxiously pinched my nose.

"Bag shower first huh.." he said again passed to the bathroom leaving me fixated happy.
