Annisa came to the orphanage past her schedule which was supposed to be at 2pm.

"Assalamu 'alaikum" Annisa said

"Wa'alaikumussalam" answered everyone while running towards Annisa.

"Sorry, sister Nisa is late" Annisa told all the children.

"That's okay" said some of the children as they pulled Annisa's hand in.

Annisa saw Syifa sitting near the tree looking towards her excitedly.

"Please bring Nisa's stuff inside!" pinta Annisa on one of the children while showing some grocery bags. "Sir Nisa's there first" she pointed towards Syifa

The children are unemployed and bring their things in.

Annisa's approaching Syifa.

"Syifa must have been waiting for Aunt Nisa?" annisa said while crouching in front of Syifa.

Syifa nodded weakly.

"Then let's go in, let's have a big aunt" said Annisa while lifting Syifa, who was,

Syifa smiled and embraced Annisa's neck. He was happy, he thought Aunt Nisa wouldn't be coming so a little sad. His gloomy face immediately bloomed.

Janeta and Amara look from a distance, Janeta smiles to see Syifa happy when carried when she was almost crying thinking Annisa would not come.

"Tante Nisa has a gift for Syifa" Annisa said as she walked with Syifa in her arms.

"What?" ask Syifa

"It will be inside" Annisa said as she pointed inside.

They went inside and they all sat down.

Annisa opened her shopping bag, then she gave it to the orphanage one by one, all looking happy to receive her gift.

"How can Sister Nisa know our size?" ask one of the little big boys.

"Sir Nisa only remembers the meeting yesterday" Annisa said as she showed the latter.

"And this is for Syifa the little one" Annisa said while giving Muslim clothes to Syifa.

Syifa smiled happily accepting it.

"Thank you Auntie" he said, hugging the clothes.

"The clothes are not expensive, if Syifa does not like anything" Annisa said

"Syifa is very fond, Syifa has not had a shirt like this," said Syifa still hugging her clothes affectionately.

Annisa smiled seeing everything happy, her smile was visible from the wrinkles near the eyes.

He began teaching children lessons about religion.

Syifa sat quietly beside Annisa because the others were not learning to teach.

After he finished teaching the other child and the other child had already gone out, he lifted Syifa into his lap.

"We start yes, repeat yesterday first, if it can be new to others" said Annisa

Syifa nodded in spirit

"Because the skirt does not cover the knee, it must be closed first with cloth but because there is no fabric so we use this only," said Annisa while showing the robe that was given to Syifa.

"Like this?" ask Syifa

Annisa nodded

Janeta walks out of the room, she walks into the room where Syifa is studying.

He smiled looking at Syifa and Annisa from the door.

Annisa taught Syifa to teach patiently until Syifa's tongue became soft and her speech was correct.

At night Syifa tried on the clothes Annisa had given her.

"It's very beautiful Grandchild Oma" said Janeta praised when she saw Syifa wearing Muslim clothes.

"Try spinning darling" added Pramana

Syifa turned around happily and then jumped into her op.

"That Papa came home, he must be surprised to see his son is very beautiful wearing a hijab like this" Pramana said as she lifted Syifa and brought her forward.

Reyhan who had just entered was immediately shocked to see his daughter.

"Pa, isn't Syifa pretty?" asked Syifa plainly and reached out to her papa's hand to kiss her.

"Very beautiful" Reyhan said with a smile. This is the first time Syifa has dressed like this.

Reyhan took Syifa from his Opanya sling

"When do you buy these clothes?" ask Reyhan

"It's in love with Aunt Nisa. Isn't that Oma?" syifa

"Yes, it was you who taught Syifa to study in the orphanage" said Janeta

Reyhan looked at Syifa's clothes once again.

"It looks like this is a brand that is in our mall, surely he bought in our mall because this brand just entered last week and has not been sold elsewhere," said Reyhan.

Pramana also saw it and just smiled.

They stopped talking because they wanted to have dinner together, but before that Syifa's clothes had to be replaced first.
