The Secret Admirer of Pesantren
Farewell Letter

Today Azizah got a little news that made her flinch. His body trembled and felt helpless.

The news has been keeping him quiet all day. It was like to see Ning Fatimah to ask about the news she got. But what is power. Now he has the right to find out.

After the prayer, Azizah sat on the terrace of the dorm room. He seemed to think and daydream a little. I don't know what the heart is with you..?? why is it so tight on my chest.

Suddenly the voice of Ning Fatimah's greeting broke her daydream..

"Assalamualaikum House.. "

"Wa. waalaikum salam Ning. " while greeting Ning Fatimah with full ta'dzim.

"Why is Zah daydreaming..?? " ask a little Ning Fatimah.

"no papa Ning .. " while looking down embarrassed.

"Have you heard about Ustadz Arif Zah..?? " A question later by Azizah will be the answer.

However, he only looked down avoiding the look in his eyes from Ning Fatimah.

"Yes Ning, I overheard a moment in the room telling a story. "

"Yes Zah. He actually wants to say goodbye to you. But he did not reach Zah's heart. If you have to see you grieve, " said Ning Fatimah. "Oh yes Zah, this is something from Ustadz Arif, which is for you." continued Ning Fatimah by thrusting a small parcel.

"Yes Zah, I went to class first huh. The children have waited a long time. Assalamualaikum. "while stepping towards the Dinia class.

Azizah, after getting the parcel, immediately rushed into her room and opened the parcel.

Inside there is a very beautiful Hijab in the Red Maroon . Well. indeed that color, Azizah's favorite color.

And besides that there was a small envelope. Then it was opened by Azizah with a trembling chest. Seen by Azizah in the letter was the handwriting of Ustadz Arif. Because Azizah understood with the handwriting of Ustadz arif when he was a student of his Dinia.

""Assynolong Azizah.

Sorry earlier. I'm not bidding directly on you.

Perhaps when you read my letter, you have heard that I have gone to Cairo, Egypt. And maybe even when you read it. I've been here in Egypt.

I don't mean to run from all this. But I'm just trying to fix things. I didn't mean to stay away from you either. However, I was just trying to keep our distance. Because, really Azizah, if I don't try to keep this distance. It's very hard for me to stay there.

I don't get to the heart if I have to see you always in a dilemma with the situation. Until this is my decision, to get away from your life.

Now there is only my hope in every long bow. If God has set us up. I pray that God will show me the way soon, that I may have you. But if, God's destiny says otherwise, I will still pray for your happiness. May any man who is your soul mate, be able to take care of you in the Hereafter, and be able to make you happy with your inner birth.

And my prayers are always with you.

I wish Azizah, though God will not allow you to have me, at least let me always be your friend.

My last love, take good care of yourself. Remain a jolly and smiling Azizah. Don't be sad about the situation. And believe that God's destiny is the best.

Once again I apologize Azizah, because of my arrival, I must end with my departure.

Salam waalaikum"

Is this Ustadz Arif..?? How much do you love me..?? That should make you take this big decision.. But what is my day. I just don't want to hurt my parents... Hix... He continued to cry, hugging the letter from Ustadz Arif.

The day changed the day of the month which later mama Ratih has arrived. Well, this month Alfaro and Azizah are getting married. Mama Ratih has prepared everything in advance from the preparation of decorations, invitations and everything did not escape the mind of mama Ratih.

"Ma .. papa wants to talk to mama. "take Papa Jaya seriously.

"What the hell is pa..? " mama Ratih who was upset because of her activities chose the Invitation to be disturbed by Papa Jaya.

"Mama has given understanding to Al..?? " ask Papa Jaya with a slight camas tone.

"Tenle Pa. about Al. Al has accepted and agreed to this marriage. So mama is more eager to prepare everything. lest our two children's marriage is less festive. Fortunately, Pa, Ilham wants us to marry along with the marriage of Al with Azizah.. " Summing Smile Mama Ratih.

"Well, if all were mama. Papa is relieved to feel. " replied Papa Ja, yes.

"Al... why do you know .. how do you look bete..?? " ask reza. He sat next to Al. Since then Al did not make a sound just silent.

"Maybe he's heartbroken again bro." continued Kevin. while looking and sipping coffee in front of him.

"For a lot of trouble like Al.. "

Al just breathed. He has not been able to tell his hangout friend, about his match with the Girl, whom he has never met. I don't know what his face and body shape looks like. Indeed his brother often told me, that the girl was beautiful, she was tall and looked perfect for Al. But, who knows her brother just makes her relieved.

"Heyy.. Even this dreamy child...??! " reza's voice was heard loudly in his ears.

"Ck. what the hell is Za .. Vin. you guys are in your own shoes. I have a lot of problems, which makes me not in the mood. "

"What's the problem, bro..?? Story to us, don't be alone. Tell me Friend, bro.. "

"complex story. And you know all will not have a solution. " gelak Al a little chuckle.

***

Today Umi is going to pick Azizah up to go home. Because, in 2 weeks his marriage contract with Al will be held.

In her heart she was very sad. When will leave this pesantren. Because it had been 8 years since he had lived here , with so many friends and grief-loving people they had been through. Also sad when remembering the closest friend to him, Vina had to part with him. However, this should be his duty as a child.
