Wedding Tempest
CHAPTER 1 The Will

The brothel owned by Mr. Lessi, which is usually crowded with visitors, has been quiet for several weeks. There is no activity there.

" Ustadz stewardship of this building we leave it entirely to ustadz. We hope this building can be useful for many people, especially for worship." Mr. Lessi handed over the keys and letters of the building to ustadz Fatoni.

" God willing, I will carry out this trust to the best of my ability. "

" Thank you ustad. My wife and I felt calmer and more ready when the angel picked us up to the Khalik." lessi and his wife looked down, a tear streaming down from her eyes.

" In addition, we'd like to leave our son Eva in his cabin ustadz Fatoni. Does ustadz allow and accept our child.? "

Long ustadz Fatoni was speechless at the request of Mr. Lesi.

" Mom and I should talk to Eva first. When Eva is ready, she will accept Eva as a santri. "

" But ustadz, Eva is our only child. All this time we educated him with illicit money. Tonight we'll talk about it with Eva. Please help her prayer so that Eva can accept our decision. "

" God willing sir. I beg you to leave, because I have a meeting at the cottage. "

Mr. Lesi and his wife escorted Ustadz Fatoni.

***

Tonight, Mr. Lesi and his wife called Eva. They were already impatient to convey their wishes to his only daughter.

" There's a problem what the hell pi mi, Eva wants to rest, sleepy."

" Papi and mami are sorry if what we say later makes you angry. Son, papi and mami want you to continue your education in the pesantren of ustadz Fatoni."

" That is, Eva was forced into the boarding school ?" ask Eva.

" Yes, son."

" Eva needs time to think about pi. Now I need to rest and sleep. "

" All right, mommy and papi are waiting for your answer tomorrow night, son. "

Eva got out of her seat without answering her mom and dad's questions. As he walked up the stairs to his room, he lay down and fell asleep.

" Pi, aren't we forcing Eva too much. Mami's afraid Eva's mad at us.

" We'd better be honest with Eva that we have HIV and that we're probably a little bit older."

" Honestly, that's beautiful. But sometimes it hurts people who don't want to accept it. Can Eva accept us ? Right now, it's best to write a will and we leave it to ustadz Fatoni to be handed over to Eva after we're gone." Mr. Lesi was silent and breathed heavily.

" Mommy feels very sinful pi. May God accept our repentance. Aamiin's."

Eva POV

" Why do mommy and papi want me to go to the pesantren so badly? Though all this time, papi sama mami always opposed my willingness to study religion in pesantren. " Eva couldn't sleep, she turned her back.

" Don't want to go into a lodge, see me pray they're already angry. I remember my aunt Darsih ART being scolded for taking me to teach at the musholla."

" I have to find out the reason mami and papi really want to go to me. Hmmmm... I have to approach and stick sweet with Fatoni's ustadz. I'm sure the handsome ustadz knows what makes mami and papi turn out like this." Eva kept thinking until she was tired and asleep.

" If I go, what about Edward. My relationship with Edward has been going on for five years. We're even getting engaged soon

" What am I supposed to do?Hmmm I better call Edward. I'm afraid she "Eva decided to call Edward.

" Hello." Edward answered the phone with a heavy voice like waking up.

" I'm asleep Yang. I miss and miss." asked Eva spoiled.

" Hmmm... Malem did call. I'm so sleepy. I'll call her tomorrow."

Edward hung up immediately.

***

Meanwhile, Mr. Lesi and his wife have completed his will.

Once enough was felt, they signed the will and kept it in a safe.

Soon they too fell asleep. A smile was on their faces.

Either the will written by Eva's parents will all be read after her parents are gone.
