Hadwan
Chapter 30: The Better

..."There was a meeting, there was also a departure. Coming and going are common, while waiting requires reassurance and resolve. Waiting is long, but it will be simple to be with someone who can make you perfect."...

Five years later

After five years since Hadwan's departure to America, Iklima has now changed a lot. The more the day the girl learned things, the more changes and it happened until now. From the start of clothes, appearance, attitude, behavior, morals and speech he began to be very polite and graceful.

To the extent that his two friends also feel proud to have a friend who always reminds him of wrong and right, always giving knowledge that he knows why his two friends, namely Wardah and Naina.

They always complement each other, no longer fighting. Always together like friends who are never separated, supporting each other. That is their friendship. It's beautiful, isn't it? Yes, that's how they are, friends forever.

Today Iklima was in the mosque that he had visited with Hadwan, when he also met with Anisa who was teaching najai children. During this time also Iklima often went there to teach the children as well, helping Anisa and a lot of learning from her brother Hadwan.

While Anisa was teaching, Iklima was always watching her until she could teach. Now Iklima was teaching the little ones, but not long after that a man came and approached them.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said a handsome young man. With a tall body and sturdy body, his appearance was very polite like a ustaz and he was right he was an ustaz.

"Wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullaahi wabarokatuh" Anisa and Iklima replied. Both look astonished by the arrival of the foreign man, but the other case with the man. He looked relaxed because he also had a certain reason for coming there.

"Sorry before, who are you?" anisa asked suddenly, because from the beginning she taught at the mosque, never once met the man who was now in front of her. Not even knowing him at all.

"Oh, introduce me Mujaki, my arrival here to replace Ustaz who will go long enough to other places. I got the trust from him to teach and replace him here. In addition, I was also asked to get acquainted with Anisa Humaira. Are there any of you named Anisa Humaira?" ask the young man suddenly.

Anisa settled down and said, "I am Anisa, what do you need with me?" ask Anisa back to the man.

"Oh no, I was only asked to get to know you because he said you were the one who taught here often and Ustaz also asked me to keep you here, teach the children najai like this," Mujaki replied with a faint smile on his lips.

"Oh, all right. Welcome here Ustaz Mujaki. Children, greet our new Ustaz" Anisa pinta told her students. Even Mujaki was immediately pleased with the welcome Anisa gave him.

"Well, Ustazah." After compactly answering that, all Anisa's students took turns to greet the back of the young man's hand.

Mujaki was very happy with his arrival to the Masjid An-Nur, he was met with a beautiful woman who was not only beautiful from the outside, but his heart was also very beautiful and clean like a nur. Light is emitted on any side.

After that, Mujaki only saw and watched Anisa as well as Iklima who was teaching children to teach. Without realizing it, he smiled at the sight of Anisa who patiently taught the children to teach. Her voice was also so beautiful, that it made Mujazi so amazed.

An hour had passed, now was the time for Iklima and Anisa to return to their homes. However, before that Mujaki directly approached him and chatted for a while.

"Sorry Anisa, thank you for that," Mujaki told Anisa.

"Yes, what?" ask back Anisa who just realized the presence of Mujaki who was right in front of her.

"Thank you for that above

"Oh that, you're welcome. After all, it's appropriate that you get more than that" Anisa said gently.

"Like just now it's more than perfect for me" Mujaki replied with a smile.

"All right, then I'll go home first. Sorry can not stay here for long," said Anisa by lowering her gaze.

"Yes no papa, let me take you forward." Mujaki immediately walked in front of the two women, because he knew that a man and a woman were better off walking, the man in front because if the woman was not allowed.

Arriving outside the mosque, Anisa and Iklima then left the mosque by saying greetings first to Mujaki.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Anisa and Iklima simultaneously.

"Wa'alaikumsalam's chat. Be careful on the road, yes" said Mujaki.

"Well Ustaz, see you tomorrow," said Iklima because Anisa just lowered her head.

After that along the way, Iklima no stop teasing Anisa because her behavior makes Anisa more embarrassed.

"Sir Anisa seems like the new Ustaz likes Brother Deh," Iklima told Anisa while on public transport.

"His, you're all there. It is not possible to be Iklima," said Anisa with a little shame.

"But it looks like it is, brother. Try Sister Anisa just pay attention to how she talks to me and Brother, very different. And his eyes look to pay attention to Anisa continued to tuh," said Iklima who made Anisa just smile.

"Already Iklima, we should not judge people without such evidence. Not good yes," said Anisa advising.

"Yes Anisa, sorry. Not anymore, but the cie-cie must be yes," Iklima's tease that makes Anisa smile again.

"What the hell, I'm sorry." It seems Anisa was so embarrassed that she avoided it.

"Cie-cie, tar be careful. Suddenly proposed," Iklima seduced while nudging Anisa's shoulder.

"Eh, you are Iklima! It could be," said Anisa who was increasingly embarrassed.

"Fifthime wait for the invitation." Iklima blinked one eye which made Anisa again feel very embarrassed.

"Udah loh Iklima, don't be that mulu. Not necessarily yes," said Anisa dodged.

"Yes no longer," said Iklima with a smile.

The two look so very familiar now, during Hadwan's time in America. Now who always accompany Anisa is Iklima, he often goes to the mosque to teach with Anisa, not infrequently also he helps Anisa in the restaurant. Therefore, the two are now getting closer and familiar already like sister brother.
