Laying his head on the pillow, Danu looked at the ceiling of the room, his mind could not be separated from Nina who digested the longing for him. The feeling for his wife came too late. How sad when there is no longer a woman who takes care of all her needs. The heart feels lonely, the house feels dead, that's how Danu feels today, so he can no longer hold back his eyes that dimly began to close.
In the morning, after the dawn prayer, because on Sunday Danu did not work, he set his foot down the stairs leading to a room. Because he likes to exercise, he makes a private fitness room in his house.
The room is quite spacious, with large glass on one of the walls so that it can exercise while glazed.
Equipment is quite complete, ranging from treadmills to hand samsak for punching exercises.
Once in the room, Danu pressed a switch, turned on some lights, and walked to the treadmill. It adjusts the speed before starting to use it.
Satisfied with running, he picked up a dumbbell lying on the floor.lifting it slowly, starting from the left hand, then alternating with the right hand to train the muscles, especially the arm.
An hour more Danu was exercising indoors, with sweat flooding all over her body, she entered the dining room that was fused with the kitchen, her ART was focusing on cooking.
There is a glass of Danu's favorite chamomille tea on the dining table, along with a bolen cake, which has been prepared by sati tea to prop up the stomach of his employer. After that he went back to the room to clean up.
Collared polo shirts, combined with chino pants, became Danu's choice to visit his in-laws' house.
"Teh I want to go to the house of in-laws, so there is no need to prepare breakfast for me" said Danu then stretch his legs towards the car garage.
A milky-white Mercedes-Benz will accompany Danu's journey to the wife's parents' house. At medium speed the car was splitting the slightly jammed road.
The gate of abi and umi's house was wide open when one of the students opened it. His house-in-law is adjacent to the boarding school, and also the MI school building (Madrasah Ibtidaiyah) equivalent to SD, MTs (Madrasah Tsanawiyah) equivalent Junior High School, and also MA (Madrasah Aliyah) equivalent High School, and also the, always crowded with boisterous voices of santriwan and santriwati.
The santri already understand who the owner of a luxury car that has just entered the area of the house babysitter Ar-Rahim boarding school.
Ustadz Arifin the father-in-law who is usually called Abi, and Ny Lela umi from Nina, most like to eat lesehan with a mat. There is grilled Nila, roasted chicken, sambal lalab, and also orek tempe that has been prepared by Umi and ARTnya.
There was no chatter when Danu enjoyed breakfast with her father and mother-in-law.he did not dare to open the conversation while eating.
"How does it work, son?" abi asked while wiping his mouth with a tissue after devouring his breakfast.
"Alhamdulillah smoothly Bi"
"Remember abi's message, always run your business honestly, let's always bless the world of the future"
"God willing" Danu answered, grabbed a glass and sipped it slowly.
"How is your worship, your prayer, your Qur'an?"
"Sholat Insha Allah is also fluent Bi, if you read the Qur'an only if you have time"
Abi seemed to nod his head.
"Son's Umi cutin fruit, let's eat" Sela umi put a plate containing pieces of papaya, dragon, and mango. "Abi, let's eat the fruit" he continued.
"Try again, even if only one verse. For the Messenger of Allah says, Whoever reads one letter of the Book of Allah (Quran), then for him one good, and that one good is reciprocated ten times.” (CHR. Tirmidhi). Keep improving yourself, because you, are a reflection of your wife"
"Yes Bi Insha Allah"
Abi is seen grabbing a fork, then stabbing at a piece of Dragon fruit and floating it into his mouth.
"Abi, what about Nina, where is she actually now?" ask Danu a little doubt.
"Son, until now, Abi and Umi had never spoken directly or by phone with Nina. Mas Haidar said he needed time to get his heart set. So abi apologized, could not give information, try again asked the same mas Haidar, said that abi told you"
"Yes bi, tomorrow if I have time to go to the Mas Haidar house, I really want to improve my household bi"
"Wa'alaikumsalam" Abi and Danu answered simultaneously with their heads looking at the sound of greetings.
"Sir Ustadz, it's time to go to the airport"
Ustadz Arifin nodded his head in response.
"Son, abi will fill dakwah in Yogyakarta for a week, and umimu will also accompany abi. Be patient waiting for your wife, actually behind patience there will be sweet fruit. Importantly, we pray together for your wife, that God will always protect her"
"Yes Bi"
Abi stood up and patted Danu on the shoulder before leaving her.
After the in-laws say goodbye to him, Danu chose to take a short walk in the field area next to the cottage building.
Some of the Santriwan were playing ball.
"Mas Danu, we're still lacking one personnel, would you like us to play ball?" ask one of the santri who Danu himself does not know what his name is.
"By" replied Danu passion.
Enemies from Danu's team got a turn to control the ball, it seemed that the round object was rolling more wild and storming like a flood. Every time the ball came, the goalkeeper of his team, flung to secure the goal. Instead, how difficult it is to dribble the round skin into the next goal.
The ball was captured by Danu, flowing from his feet. Bait after bait brilliantly pushed him. then he passed it to Apri, who was always able to receive his feed quite well.
Team Danu managed to win their exciting game with a score of 3:2.
"More next time play again?"
"Ok" Danu's answer was accompanied by a ringing of a cell phone from inside her pocket.
"Suddenly kok?"
"Yes, you went to my house and you were there" and then disconnected the phone.
"Ok kids, I say goodbye first, later if there is time, we play again, Assalamualaikum"
Danu got word from her Assistant Rio, he said that today should go to Semarang for a meeting tomorrow morning.
The car entered the courtyard of his house, looks like there is already a car parked Rio in his yard.
Danu immediately entered her house, and found Rio struggling with a laptop in the TV room.
"Bro, I took a shower for a while" Danu said as she walked up the stairs.
"Where have you been?" Rio looked at his boss's back which was getting further away.
"From the house-in-law" cried Danu with legs that continued to step up the stairs.
An hour passed and Danu was ready to go to semarang with Rio, while wearing socks, his gaze caught a shiny object under the wardrobe, Danu frowned in wonder, his forehead full of wonder, then walk towards him.
He crouched down then reached out to grab the thing.
"Ring" muttered Danu with sharp nosediving eyebrows.
