After calling his Father and Mother who are in Malang. Apparently, not long ago there was an incoming call from his fiancee, Dhito. Therefore, Ardhita also shifted the green button icon on the phone screen.
"Assalamualaikum," said Dhito with a smile.
The handsome, clean-skinned young man who now wears a short-sleeved batik shirt is smiling when Ardhita's face is seen on the mobile screen. The greeting that was accompanied by a smile, until from across there Ardhita also smiled.
"Waalaikumsalam, Mr. Dhito. Happy Eid Al-Fitr Day to Mas Dhito. Dhita apologizes born and inner, if many wrong during this time," replied Ardhita.
"Happy Eid Al-Fitr Day too, Sister. I'm sorry too, if so much has gone wrong. You healthy?" ask Dhito.
"Thank God be healthy, Mom. Where is Eid prayer?" ardhita asked her fiance.
"Sholat Ied at home only congregate, Dik. Led by Father" he answered.
Indeed, at that time, all Muslim worshippers and Muslim women were encouraged to perform the Ied prayer at home only. The head of the family can imitate and lead prayers with the family in one house. Therefore, in the Dhito family is also Mr. Hardi who leads Eid prayer.
"How do you pray, brother?" ask Dhito.
"Salley alone at home, Mas. It's at home, it's the night shift" Ardhita replied.
Dhito nodded his head. The job risk is like that. Just like Ardhita who on Eid al-Fitr still have to work.
"Good health, Sister. Vitamins drunk. Do not get exposed to Covid for a second time," replied Dhito.
There Ardhita smiled and nodded her head. "Yes, Mas. Hopefully yeah. Yesterday was also a fear, especially the time of anosmia. Can't really smell and smell."
After that, Dhito came out of the room and met his Father and Mother who were in the living room. It was indeed his Father and Mother when Dhito called Dhita, wanted to say hello. So now Mr and Ms. Hardi greet her future daughter-in-law.
"Hello, Assalamualaikum Mbak Dhita," said Pak Hardi and Bu Lastri together.
"Nggih, Waalaikumsalam Father and Mother. Dhita wishes happy Eid al-Fitr for Father and Mother. Sorry if there was any mistake, ma'am. Hopefully in the coming year can be better," said Dhita.
Hearing Mr. Hardi's words, Dhita smiled. It was only natural for Dhito to become upset. It was also because there was no certainty when it could meet. The aircraft has not yet flown. They both had to separate so far.
"Sign Father. He said, Sir," replied Ardhita.
"Definitely Ma'am ... Father and Mother pray. Eating lebaran ketupat there?" ask Miss Lastri.
Dhita shook her head. On holidays alone, no one makes the typical lebaran rhombus with Chicken Opor.
"Nothing, Mother. Besides, later tonight Dhita is on night duty, here there is nothing" he replied.
"Oh, pity Ma'am .. This is Mom to ketupat lebaran just a little. There are no brothers who come and come, Ma'am. All the details with video calls. Virtual," Miss Lastri's story.
Usually on holidays, relatives from Batu, even from Sidoarjo will come to his house in Malang. But then, no one really came. Only one family home. So, Miss Lastri also cooks kupat lebaran, just a little.
"It has to be home, Mom. In order not to be exposed to the virus" Ardhita replied.
"Lha yes tow mbak. Sepi Lebaran this year," replied Miss Lastri earlier.
After chatting for a long time with Ardhita, then Mr and Ms. Hardi say goodbye.
"Good Mother Ditha. Happy spread well. Healthy always. My mom and dad always prayed from far away. Hopefully we can return to Malang soon. God willing, Lebaran next year already with Dhito."
"Amen. Pray yes, Father and Mother," Dhita replied.
Actually both have dreams, after this Lebaran marriage both will be held. Formalizing the relationship that has been established for three years, treading the level of marriage that has been dreamed of Dhito and Ardhita. Unfortunately, they have to undo their intentions because the virus is increasingly uncontrollable.
"Yes already, Sister. Wanna go on what? Bottom line's healthy. Continue to send a message. Once again happy Eid al-Fitr, Dik ... God willing, next year we have met well," replied Dhito.
In my heart, I also feel like I want to meet. Unfortunately, the universe has not allowed it. Now you can just cross it virtually. In the coming year, hopefully you can visit face-to-face.
