Back to the conversation between Alwan and Ibu Aidah.
Ms. Aidah smiled wryly. "uh kaaannn, it was discovered that you were kangen same syila." said the mother of Aidah
Alwan was caught wet, in just smiling and saying. "can you? His name has also been met for a long time" said Alwan with a ignorant smile.
"May." said Aidah with a smile.
"Oh yes ma'am. if you know how Syila is there.? Ask Alwan
"Alhamdulilah shila on the ground in good health walafiat wan, just last week she called my mother" said the mother of Aidah cheerfully
"how about his studies on the ground, anyway,?" Alwan dug up information from Ibu Aidah, to reduce his longing for syila.
"the lecture is alhamdulilah smoothly.and the plan after graduating S1 syila will go home first to Indonesia, before continuing to S2." explained Ibu Aidah.
"oh so, mom.
not feeling yes ma'am, it has been 3 years more, since the last Alwan met syila." said Alwan with a blank smile. Aidah's mother glanced at alwan with a smile
"where do you work, Wan,?" Tanya Bu Aidah switched the conversation.
***
Ma'am did not want alwan to dissolve in the void. Because in fact the mother had already known their relationship from fatih, before Syila got a scholarship from the foundation.
"Emmm. Alwan hasn't worked yet, ma'am.?" alwan simple said.
"why do you want to work, or find a job. You have no pity on your parents.?" said mother Aidah. Alwan only answered with a smile, he was confused, not knowing what to answer.
"you are young women, your energy is still strong, your IQ (Intelligent Quotient) can still be developed. Why do you not use your youth to work, and seek experience.? If you work and have income, at least you can help your parents make the cost of studying your siblings.or at most, you can continue to study at the University you want.
your steps are still long wan, for a better future that you can still pursue." Advice from Ibu Aidah. Alwan could only smile in shame, without being able to reproach the words of Mother Aidah.

Arriving home,
Alwan pondered what his mother said, and also the mother of Aidah, and he came to a conclusion. That every old man puts great hopes on every child, so that his son's life is much better in the future. And from then on, Alwan was determined to try his luck.
On his return Alwan picked up his younger siblings from school. "Assalammualaikum.." said Alwan and his two younger siblings compactly.
"waalaikumsalam" your tumben at this hour just came home? " ask umi Aliya to Amira and Fakih
"so Ade waited for Umi, so that Ade fell asleep in the teacher's room" fakih complained with a facial expression that showed annoyance.
"sorry miii, there was an impromptu meeting all around, regarding the national exam." said Amira.
"oh, continue what was discussed with the school earlier.? " ask Umi Aliya.
"said the headmaster, because UN has stayed a few months bill, students/students are trying to be more active in learning at home. And he said there will be an additional Les, in the next few weeks." said Amira.
"emm' for Lesnya there is an additional biyaya too.? About which exam fees? " ask Umi Aliya
"ennga Umi, for Lesnya free. If for the cost of UN, later he said he would be met directly with the guardian of students" said Amira
"Ohhh, yes, you took a shower. After that pray, continue to eat." said Umi Aliya
"umi's father" said Amira.
***
malampun. Amira is busy turning back the lesson paper, while fakih is busy watching television at Umi Aliya's friend who is ironing clothes.
"tumben you're not lost, are you,?" reprimand Umi Aliya, to Alwan who approached him.
"Umi, huh,? Tegur Alwan hesitantly
"Hem, even.? " ask Umi Aliya who focuses on ironing clothes
"Emmmm Umi has a stash.?" ask Alwan. Umi Alyia turned her head in surprise, hearing Alwan's question.
"do you think Umi's a girl?" umi Aliya said
"engga Umi, I mean Alwan Umi there is more savings or not,?" alwan.
"ohh Umi thought you said what savings.so next time if you say the obvious, do not half-and-half, let umi not misunderstand." said Umi
"sorry Umi, "sahut Alwan.
"What do you do is rich.? Don't tell me you want to do something bad.
Umi there has a deposit of money, just the money for urgent needs only, for the cost of your brothers' school and other needs" explained Umi Aliya.
"oh so" said alwan
"what's wrong?" ask Umi Aliya
"so it's Umi, then,! alwan called OM iyas. Alawan asked about work.
And incidentally in the office OM iyas is in need of labor, for the marketing part. And OM iyas offers to Alwan, if Alwab wants and is willing, these weeks Alwan is asked to leave" said Alwan
"what do you keep answering.?" ask umi Aliya in doubt.
"said Alwan. Iyah OM, insyaallah Alwan ready. happens to be unemployed. later Alwan talked to Umi first, fearing Umi did not give permission. That's Umi." explained Alwan
Umi Aliya immediately finished her work, tidying up the remaining unfinished clothes in the iron.
"you're serious, want to work with OM iyas?" ask umi firmly.
"god willing, Alwan seriously want to work. Alwan's intention is round, Alwan wants to help Umi with Abi and wants to change our situation, which hopefully will be much better in the future" said Alwan.
"then you've thought things through carefully.?" back Umi asked for firmness.
"why,? Umi is afraid that Alwan is not successful, and can not replace Umi's savings that alwan use.? Ask alwan
"not like that, Umi believes in you. If your determination is round, want to try and work hard. Working hard to rebut tulan, accompanied by do'a and worship. Umi believes you will be able to succeed. But, OM iyas already know your ability, can you fill a seat in the marketing section.?" umi aliya looked at alwan
"if the matter is about it, Alwan has been direct with Om iyas, and OM iyas want to help alwan gradually" said alwa
"Umi just regret, because all this time you work sober, even though sometimes the work you live there or not. more often you haunt in the middle of your work, because of your boredom and insecurity in work.with a small income, all this time you can only dig a hole and close it.
Umi advises you to be more mature, not about your wishes, but about the consequences later, maybe there is still time" said Umi Aliya
alwan grasped and kissed Umi Aliya's hands with a bow, as in prostration. He asked for an opportunity, hoping. "Umiiiii, Alwan has finished it all. Alwan knows, this time is different from the previous one. insyaallah Alwan will be ready, and have prepared everything, whatever Alwan will meet later. Alwan asked Do'a blessing from Umi, so that Alwan's journey and career was facilitated by the almighty, without any obstacles. Especially for the health of Alwan in there later." said Alwan to Umi Alya who sat in front of him.
Umi aliya raised her head and rubbed her hair. "inysaallah, ridho allah and ridho umi with you" said Umi Aliya, with a full smile.
"thank you" said Alwan with a happy smile.
Umi nodded "yes, you just prepare what you want to bring later," said Umi aliya.
"iyah Umi, if so Alwan sleep first well Umi" said Alwan, while standing and stepping towards the room.
"oh iyah wan, the plan is you want to leave when.?" ask Umi Aliya
"later Umi, Alwan wants to wonder about the good time first to wa Azi" said alwan before closing the door to the room. Umi Aliya did not stop smiling staring at the door of the room, as if not expecting the road that will be taken alwan.
