Turns out I love

Turns out I love
Part 19 - The decision I made


In the evening I returned to pray. This time I salat istikharah to re-establish my choice.


I've made up my mind for my future life.


I again prayed for guidance from the Khaliq. I know that everything that lives in this world belongs to him. Then we are best to depend and ask only him.


I have high hopes for this decision. I hope this is the right decision and can make me as happy as my parents.


"Oh Allah.Make this the right decision. Decisions that get your blessing. I want to wade through the domestic life that's always on your path."


I prayed and held my hands together. Tears also came during my prayer.


********


The night I decorated with prayers and tears had changed to morning. The sound of the Adhan began to reverberate and earthy among the musholla or mosque. Time moves very quickly to pass.


I opened my eyes. I opened the window curtain right next to my bed. I enjoyed the morning atmosphere in the house before leaving.


I will miss the morning atmosphere in my house. The morning atmosphere was still very cold. The distinctive smell of soil and the smell of leaves are smelled in the morning if after the rain flushes.


I really like the atmosphere of my hometown. For me peace I always get if I am in this place and enjoy the atmosphere.


"What comments are you awake?"


Mama every dawn will be my alarm. An alarm that never stops until I wake up.


I got out of bed and set foot to open the door.


My mom was waiting for me outside the room.


"We pray at dawn first."


My mother spoke and smiled at me. I will rarely see this smile.


The tradition of morning prayers in the house will also be missed.


Everything in this house I miss. I'm not sure I'd be at home living in a different house and with a stranger.


My decision has indeed been made. It's just that I don't know if I can afford to stay away from my family.


We all offer congregational prayers. I don't know when I'll be able to stay with my family.

The heat was shining through my bedroom window. I was always in my room when I was off for college. I feel like my room is my most comfortable place. Plus in the room there is already a television that accompanies.


"I called olive first ah. He has a course today. And as I recall, he had a job. I'm afraid he forgot."


I immediately rushed to find a mobile phone and it turns out there have been many chats coming in. Especially the chat from the guy.


Doni's still calling me. He still wanted me to believe what he said. Does he not feel guilty for me? Did he never think of my feelings that he had hurt?


I read one by one the incoming chats before I called olive. It turned out that there were some incoming messages from a number I didn't recognize.


I opened it and it turned out.


"So, this is Kenzie's grandfather. Time has gone by very quickly. Does that answer already exist? We are waiting for a definitive answer from you. We're ready to reapply and set the date for both of you're married."


It was roughly the contents of a message from a number I didn't know and it turned out to be Kenzi's grandfather.


I replied to a message sent by Kenzie's grandfather. I deleted my writing a few times. I weigh the right words to reply to his chat.


I sent that reply to Kenzi. I hope my words are right to answer the question.


Today is the time to give an answer.


This steadiness I got from after Istikharah prayer for two days. I pray for directions.


I'm sure Allah SWT doesn't sleep. So I believe Allah SWT will take care of me if my intentions are straightened out.


After replying to a message. I pressed the button with the green phone.


I called olive. Olive's dial tone was heard and I was waiting for her to pick up my call.


"Hello."


A wet hoarse voice rang out from across the phone. I'm glad that olive's awake.


"Liv. Today to college, right?"


"Yes, Tar. It'll be ten o'clock. Why?"


"It's nothing. Just want to take care of the task today. It's been done?"


"Already Tar. Thank God it is finished. Pray that my presentation goes well."


"Ready. Must be in doain. Keep on finishing college. Where you going?"


"Repract the Tar times. You and Tami didn't go to college today. So why did I stay on campus for so long."


That's right olive said. It must be lonely because his two best friends are not around.


"Okeh then. Me and Tami will be waiting for you at Mbah's shop."


Me and my two best friends used to hang out at the Mbah stall. Coffee stalls that provide a variety of snack foods that are not inferior to the restaurant or cafe menu.


The atmosphere there is also very good. Relax even though there is live music.


Warung Mbah is one of my favorite hangout spots for students and college students. It's not just us who come. Many visitors then lalang stop there just to taste delicious coffee made Mbah lili.

"Well, I'm going to college today. It was not afternoon at home. At most before the ashar adhan I've come home."


"Good okeh. You may, but you've answered Kenzie's grandfather's message?"


True allegations. They must have exchanged information about me. But why don't you know what my decision is? Has Kenzie's grandfather not opened the message I sent?


I looked at the phone screen and opened the chat again. Still tick one.


Yes let. I also don't expect them to read the messages I sent.


I helped my mom cook for lunch. Brother Ali today did not go out of the house to work. My brother besides being a coffee business man. He is also a teacher. Kak Ali opened a coffee shop with his friends.


"Sayur lodeh is already a mam."


Mama came up to me and checked back on the lodeh vegetable she made.


I can cook just that the taste of mama's cooking is more accepted by my family.


"Dance. Bring the vegetable pot. Keep getting those balado cobs. Serve it on the table too.


I after putting the pot immediately rushed to take a plate containing fish cob balado. Anyone who eats it will definitely keep adding.


This is my family's favorite menu. I can't cook like my mom. How can I cook for my husband?


I don't want to use the services of a waiter to take care of the house and cook
