Abah Ucup already wants to go to the door of Waroh's room. But Mrs Salamah was on the door of the living room.
"Already Sir. Go to the post office. Don't get too responded to. Waroh that's not healthy right."
"all in the hills, your son. Perhaps the demons in his body were already numerous. The same old man is so insolent!" Abah Ucup said with emotion. He went back to his motor. He hugged his motor several times. When it is not heard the sound of Abah Ucup motorbike.
Waroh out of the room. The eldest daughter of Bu Salamah was sitting on a chair in the kitchen. He ate a fried banana that still felt warm.
"Eat rice Spirit. That mom has cooked clear tofu same fried fish. The medicine still has to be taken."
Waroh is still chewing on his banana. He revealed his heart to his mother. He couldn't sleep last night. He was still thinking of ways that Rohim would not marry Laila. So that he also has a plan.
"If Abah still wants to marry Laila to Rohim, I don't want them to stay here. Keep all the gardens, the soil, the rice fields it's all for me. Laila Ndak can get a dime."
Mrs Salamah who was wiping the table gawked at Waroh's words.
He sat in front of Waroh.
"O God the Spirit. You were thinking. Your father is still alive, I've thought of the inheritance."
"Yes be fair. I can't go to town. I'm in college. While Laila from High School is already in town continuing to lecture."
"Let her still marry Rohim. It is hard to marry Rohim. What can Rohim who is just a teacher njai. Ndak not be happy you Laila. Anyway if you marry Rohim, all this should be mine. Let Abah Ndak help you if Rohim can't support you." The inner Waroh in his heart.
Bu Salamah looked at Waroh.
"Didam what I used to be, kok had his hard son begging for mercy. Was I wrongly taught. If Laila, once Ndak never denied." Salamah complained in her heart. He was actually often tired of educating Waroh. But whatever the power, the affection of Miss Salamah when educating Waroh who is still alone. He will always obey the will of his son. When Waroh cries for something, he will immediately obey the will of the child.
He immediately gave what Waroh wanted. Unwittingly by Ms. Salamah that it makes her educate her son to be the boss for his parents. The child has no patience. Because his lust is always fulfilled. Where should a child want something. Parents should wait until the naf su the lost child gives the desired. Because it trains the patience of the child. A character that will be embedded until they are adults.
Day by day the letter sent by Abah Ucup had arrived at the boarding house of Hikam. The lady from the boarding school called Laila who was helping some of the students who served in the cottage, cooking for lunch of the students. In the cottage one day can cook 50kg of rice. So santri putri is only in charge of cooking vegetables and side dishes. While the rice will be cooked by the santri who serve in the cottage.
Laila who entered into the ordinary room of her Nyai Bu received a deposit of santri poultice, she walked on her knees and lowered her head. Arriving in front of Umi Nafi, Laila kissed the back of the teacher's hand.
"Sir, there's a letter from your father."
Laila took the letter politely. His head is still down.
The photo also fell on the ground floor. A friend who walked in front of Laila did not realize that she stepped on the photo using her sandals. So that Rohim's photo was attached to the bottom of the slippers of Laila's friend who was busy pacing back and forth preparing stew seasoning to cook chicken.
Laila was sitting near the Furnace that was commonly used for cooking. He was waiting for the hot water to educate to boil the leaves of the yam or cassava leaves. He confirmed the position of the firewood in the furnace before he read the letter from his brother.
"Who's letter from Lai?" Ask his best friend who's slicing onions.
"From Abah. Maybe Abah called but couldn't because my phone's gone."
"May no one propose to you. Like Lesti. If you too boyong(home), I can go crazy alone here. The other Ndak no one can be invited to actually serve for the cottage. Still a kid." Ulfa revealed her heart. Santriwati who served in the cottage one by one have gone home or boyong because someone proposed. And the last is Lesti close friends with Laila who used to take care of kitchen needs.
Laila confirmed the position of the scabbard. He opened the crease. Abah Ucup's handwriting.
..."Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi....
...Nduk, Abah called many times but your no is off. So you sent me this letter. Abah wishes you and Mr. Yai and Bu your nyai are all healthy. And may you become more and more the son of Sholehah....
Abah and Ibu in a healthy village, Abah just wants to give you news. There was a young man named Ahmad Rohim. He is a njai teacher in Sumber Sari village. Come to propose to you. And Abah accepted it.
I hope by the end of this month you can go home. Abah accepted Rohim's proposal because he understood religion. Abah think he is suitable for you who also understand the science of religion. You saw the picture. Don't look at his face. God forbid, this is his son akhlaknya good Nduk. You used to say that if you married later want to be the same guy who is good man and get ridho Abah and your teacher. This is Abah Ridho if you marry Rohim.
That's just a letter from Abah. Tell your Abah when you can boyong. Abah will pick you up. Say hello to Pak Kyai and your Buk Nyai.
Wassalamu'alaikum."
Laila stared at the letter for a moment, she was no stranger to the name Rohim. Because every home Eid al-Fitr the girls of Sumber Waras will tell about the charisma of Rohim. But he had never met the man named Rohim. Because every Eid ul-Fitr, Rohim will return to his hometown.
Laila opened the envelope looking for the photo of her Abah but she could not find a picture of Rohim. He flicked the sheath, in case it fell on the sheath. But he did not find. Then he stood up. He searches around her. But the two neutrals were fixed on a 3x4 photo fitting near the Ulfa sandal.Ia rushed to take the photo. When the photo was in Laila's hands, the picture was no longer clearly visible. Because Rohim who printed the photo using cardboard paper and ordinary printer ink, so it will fade when exposed to water.
But on the back of the paper was written a name that read Arabic.
..."احمد رحيم"...
Suddenly Ulfa's voice shouted behind Laila..
"Geez.... Eleuhw... Ahmad Rohim's... Asyeekkkkz. He said from Abah. Abah Rohim... Abah What is Abi's candidate?" Goda Ulfa's.
