GOD, LOVE
MC 1
"Yumna, what I want is for you to be Mas's companion, not Salma or anything else."
"But Mas, what the judge wants to be his daughter-in-law is Mbakku Mas, mbak Salma."
The two men spoke looking at the fish pond behind Yumna's house, standing about a meter and a half away.
"In that case, I'll talk to Abi and say that I'm only going to marry you, I don't want to be with anyone else."
"Mas ... Mas Wafri, Stop! if Mas keeps telling abi, then I will reject you myself." Yumna shouted not too loudly.
The words uttered by Yumna successfully made Wafri step stopped. Wafri clenched his hands, holding back the resentment raging in the chest.
"So, do you think you should just be quiet when you have to marry someone you don't want?" Wafri walked closer towards Yumna.
Yumna continued to walk backwards, looking down with tears starting to wet her cheeks.
"I don't want to hurt Sister Salma, Mom."
"You don't want to hurt Salma, but you're hurting my heart, Yumna!" said Wafri still in a calm tone.
Hicks ... Yumna continued to cry and lowered her head, not daring to just look at Wafri let alone having to sit close together, because this was the second time they chatted together as long as they were already puberty, and since the shame grew between the two.
"Mas, I think Salma loves you. He's a lot more worthy of you than I still haven't done anything."
"You think of Salma's feelings, but not of them? you have the heart of Yumna" said Wafri, emphasizing his last words.
Wafri passed away leaving Yumna with all her annoyance. Yumna sat on the floor hugging her knees and buried her face, her chest shaking violently crying over the complicated situation between the two of them and her robe began to get wet with tears.
*Flashback Of
Whether or not to regret everything that happened, since Seven months ago Yumna and Wafri began to have interest in each other. Coinciding at that time, the family of Kiai Ahmad Fathoni Malik or often called with Kiai Malik at the Milad ceremony of boarding school owned by Kiai Abdul Hakim Asy'ari known as Kiai Asy'ari.
In the past when their children often played together, but since adolescence, they never met, because the Wafri who began to enter the cottage and continued to study in Medina.
Kiai Malik reintroduced two of his daughters who are no longer children, namely Salma Shafiyyah and Yumna Almahyra. Salma their eldest daughter who is studying at one of the Islamic Universities in the city of A by majoring in Islamic religious education, while the youngest Yumna still sits on the bench Aliyah equivalent to High School, while the, he attended school in his father's own cottage.
Just like Kiai Malik, Kiai Asy'ari also introduced his only puppet son named Muhammad Wafri Alfarizky, who had just completed his education at one of the Islamic universities of Madinah, His return to the homeland will help none other than his abi to manage the boarding school.
At that time the brief introduction did not cause any feelings between Wafri and Yumna, because Yumna just subdued her gaze, saw the end of her robe, in contrast to Salma who occasionally looked at Wafri. While Wafri did not look at them because he helped chimed in the chatter between his abi and also Kiai Malik.
But, who would have thought that their short meeting gave rise to good intentions in the heart of Kiai Asy'ari to establish a deeper friendship, even more, with the sense that he wants to propose to one of Kiai Malik's daughters to become his son-in-law. After the Milad cottage event was completed, Kiai Asy'ari conveyed his intentions to Kiai Malik, with a warm embrace of Kiai Malik receiving the intention and purpose of Kiai Asy'ari.
Arriving at the house Kiai Malik conveyed the intention of Kiai Asy'ari to his wife mother Laila Khadijah.
"There can't be Yumna, Dad. He was still in school, if Salma Insyaallah was enough in every way, so it seemed like Kiai Asy'ari's proposal was more suitable for Salma at this time. Isn't that Dad? what do you think is wrong?" ask Laila gently.
Laila Khadijah was the mother of Salma Shafiyyah and Yumna Almahyra, a gentle and intelligent woman who accompanied Kiai Malik for almost 30 years. He is very gentle and loving especially regarding his two children, especially he who includes a long time to get children, when getting children guarded with all body souls.
"Mother is right, Salma is better prepared than anything. Tomorrow I will tell Kiai Asy'ari, let's go to sleep."
No one knew if anyone heard the conversation between the two. That person is Salma. Salma who heard the chatter of his father and his mother was so happy, how unhappy, Wafri the man who from childhood had been admired would be his life companion. Salma rushed to leave her father's room and went inside her room.
Even in various other activities he often saw Yumna but certainly always from an unclear position, from the side or even the back, while Yumna never glanced in the direction of Wafri, though so many santri who can not subdue his gaze for the sake of being able to see Wafri. Once Wafri idly wanted to prank Yumna who was famous for her shy, and liked to keep her head down when walking.
Wafri who from a distance saw Yumna walking while reading a book, he also walked towards Yumna, when it was almost a meter and a half from Yumna, he shouted
"Revelation!!! there's a snake near your feet!!!" yell Wafri.
Yumna who felt a voice calling towards him, reflexively surprised after hearing the scream.
"Nlarr? Aaaggh!!" yumna Refelek yelled, throwing away the book and jumping around slowly, flicking her Skirt."
Feeling bullied, Yumna unconsciously raised her head and looked at the angry people who had been pranking. And then he picked up the fallen book and left.
'Deg!!!!!'
Wafri who saw clearly Yumna's face, gawked in disbelief at what she saw. How can there be a very beautiful and beautiful woman in the eye, a woman who has a sharp nose, reddish thin lips, a pointy chin, round eyes, beautiful eyebrows as in carvings. His heart was racing, and he was like he was losing oxygen around him so much that he repeatedly breathed in.
"Astaghfirullah thing 'adzim, Astaghfirullah, what have I done?" Wafri rubbed his face, he was aware of the mistake he had made. He realized, if he had looked at what he should not see, not just look, even he enjoyed what he saw.
Wafri also felt guilty for what he did so as to make Yumna become angry like that.
The next day, Wafri wrote down the word 'Afwan' on a piece of paper, and left it to one of the students to be conveyed to Yumna.
Yumna received the paper and opened it, she just read it and then squeezed and threw it away. Not only that, because there was no reply from Yumna, Wafri again sent a paper that read the same as before coupled with a bar of purple chocolate, but after reading it, Yumna sent back the paper and the chocolate as well. In the following days it was like that, the paper and chocolate will return to Wafri.
Exactly the fifth send, Wafri who was upset because his send was always rejected, in question with a snapping sentence. Wafri wrote 'I'm sorry that I have bullied you, if you will forgive me please accept this chocolate and reply to my writing, but if you return it as before, if you return it, I myself will drive him to your house', the long sentence turned out to be successful to make Yumna reply to the message of Wafri, although briefly can carve a smile on the lips Wafri 'I'm sorry I thank you, thanks brownnya'
Since then somehow Wafri can not forget Yumna, Yumna's face always shadowed in the eye peluk. Like a tipper, Wafri was asked to teach Fiqh and Nahwu lessons, replacing Ustadz who would perform Umrah worship. Almost two weeks Wafri taught the two lessons in a class that also contained Yumna. It was not that yumna was unconscious, that she had always been noticed by Wafri, it was just that she did not want to return that gaze.
"Please! if you're learning to look ahead, not at the bottom of the table, because I'm in front, not under the table."
All the santri immediately confirmed their sitting position, not least Yumna, who understood that the reprimand was actually for him.
"All the tasks I gave you were one and delivered to my room, Yumna please take me to my room" said Wafri.
Wafri could see Yumna's shocked reaction and tense face at her command, and asked someone to accompany her.
"Riska, please help Yumna bring these tasks into my room."
"Good Ustadz."
Until one day, because he often met even though only when studying in class, he always paid attention to Wafri in giving lessons, until he unconsciously began to like Wafri, who was not aware of the, initially like the way of wafri to convey a simple but direct lesson to the accepting and not long-winded, and it turns out Wafri is also not a hard or arrogant Ustadz, either, but Ustadz who is firm and humble even a cheap smile is not the same santriwati more precisely santriwan, so many santriwati who idolize it.
One day, when Milad's boarding school belonging to Kiai Malik was held, Wafri was asked to recite the Holy Verse of the Quran. Wafri recited the verses so melodiously, that it made all who heard it amazed, not least with Yumna who got goosebumps and rustles in his chest, he said, he enjoyed the verse so much that he shed his tears. From then on, Yumna will be misbehaved and deg-degan when seeing Wafri from a distance.
The Flashback
Yumna was still crying with her head down and hugging her knees, she did not realize that from earlier there was someone who heard their conversation, namely Mother Laila. Yes, Yumna's mother had already heard and seen what happened between her daughter and Wafri. He could only smother his mouth, and shed tears looking at his daughter who was crying from being injured.
Mother Laila also left the place, and re-joined her husband and also their guests who were none other than Kiai Asy'ari and her family. Mother Laila also saw that there was a Wafri who did not talk much, she was more silent and lowered her head.
