The Love Story of the Dampit Family
Hima's Decision

Eyang Maryam knew Hima's story, and also knew Arjuna's story about a man named Gusti. These two nights, Maryam's always thinking about it. A dream is a sleeping flower, but a dream can also be a cue.

"Hima, Eyang wants to talk" said Eyang Maryam in the afternoon, while Hima was resting in the back of the house, while making handicrafts, as her saturated medicine.

"Yes, Go ahead" said Hima.

Eyang Maryampun led Hima to sit on the pendopo.

"Sir, it's been two months Rama's gone, how do you feel? Are you still sad, or are you willing?" ask Eyang Maryam.

"Alhamdulillah, InshaaAllah Hima declares Eyang. The lingering sadness is not good, is it not good?" answer Hima.

"Thank God, then. Also happy, finally you can accept the situation sincerely" said Eyang Maryam.

"Yes Eyang."

"Sir."

"Yes, huh?"

"May you ask me something?" ask Eyang Maryam.

"May you."

"Gold, nduk. Is there an intention in your heart to go through the household again?" eyang asked carefully, worried about making Hima offended.

"Ehm, Hima has not been imagined eye-to-eye." replied Hima.

"Sir."

"When you can not continue the relationship with Ardi, you still have hope to stay with the fruits of your heart Rama. But God willed another way, and Ramah has returned to Him" said Mary.

"The one who is not always by your side. Always count the days, because the age of the eyes is getting dusk." The Eyang Maryam.

As Eyang Maryam said that, Hima instantly shed her tears, and reflexively, her body staggered to embrace her eye-to-eye body. Eyang Maryam received the hug lovingly. Hima is his beloved granddaughter, because she is his granddaughter who is far from both parents, since her mother died.

"Eyang.." and his sobs, Hima realized that, where she would not be with him forever.

"Sir, if the advice is eyed, it would be better, if you try to open your heart again. You remarry, and may you get another baby, so that you have children, your age may be young" suggested Eyang.

"You can't, can you, stay with your bulls and gables? While they have their own family, they still have a daughter who is still in school, and Arjuna will also sooner or later find her soulmate" said Eyang again.

"But Eyang,," said Hima worriedly.

"But why nduk?" ask Eyang.

"Who would want a widow like me?" ask Hima pessimist.

"Hem... Nduk..."

"If there is a good young man, whom he loves very much, and even he does not hesitate to retreat even if he knows that you are a widow, do you want to accept it?" ask Eyang.

"Eyang, Hima has failed in a marriage. Hima also failed in carrying out the mandate, the mandate to be a mother" said Hima who then sobbed, remembered by the figure of Rama, her son.

"Sir, a failure is one of the keys to success. You're not too late, you're still quite young. Correct your failure, and achieve the success you dream of." said Eyang motivates.

"Indeed, who loves me Eyang?" ask Hima curiously.

"You've met him. We also know who he is. Juna has been assigned to find out who he really is, and Juna is increasingly convinced, that this young man is very serious and InshaaAllah he is best for you" said Eyang.

"Who is Eyang?"

"He was the doctor Rama referred to, who was present in your dream" said Eyang with a smile.

"He's a doctor?" ask Hima.

Eyang Maryam smiled, then nodded.

"Who's eyeang?"

"Custy. Doctor Gusti. The man who used to deliver Arjuna's wallet here, with his sister" said Eyang Maryam.

"Doctor Gusti?"

"Yes nduk."

"Hm... " Hima took a deep breath and took it out slowly.

"Is Hima worthy of him Eyang?" said Hima.

"Are you interested in him?" ask Eyang.

Hima raised her face.

"Why did you ask like that?" ask Hima astonished.

"Nduk. Indirectly, you agree with it, but you are still doubtful" said Eyang Maryam smiling.

"If you are interested in her, you will accept her, tomorrow too Arjuna will convey your decision to her, and she will continue her steps to propose you with her family" said Eyang Maryam sparkling.

"Is that exactly what you're doing?"

"Faster, better" said Eyang Maryam.

Hima took another deep breath.

"Hm. Alright Eyang." replied Hima optimistically.

"Alhamdulillah. Eyang will soon announce this to Arjuna." said Eyang Maryam happily.

Maghrib time did not arrive. Hima and Eyang Maryam also perform maghrib prayers to the mosque, and continued to listen to the memorization and recitation of the Qur'an of his students.

In the evening, Eyang Maryam immediately conveyed Hima's decision to Arjuna, Abi Ilyas, Umi Ulfa and Ustadz Mumtaz. Everyone was happy with Hima's decision. And Arjunapun immediately contacted Gusti to convey Hima's decision.

💞💞💞

"Yes, Alhamdulillah O Allah." cried Gusti from his room while jumping like a child.

"Finally... Ah,," said Gusti excitedly.

Gustipun ran out of the room, then looked for his sister, Anjani.

"Dek, Adek." cried Gusti looking for his brother.

"Astagfirullah. Why the hell is yelling? It's this malem." Anjani's nagging.

"Sir, sister again this great seneng. There is good news on the deck." said Gusti with a sparkling face while holding his sister's hands.

"Good news? What's the news, brother?" ask Anjani wonder.

"Five decks" Gusti said again.

"Hima? mbak Hima's? What's with him?" tanya Anjani still did not understand, because she was sleepy.

"Hima received me deck. And soon, my brother was asked to go there with his family, to propose to him." said Gusti girang.

"Seriously brother?" ask Anjani not to believe.

"Yes deck, seriously" Gusti said again.

"Yes! Well, congratulations sister..y finally your love is avenged." said Anjani happily.

"Yes deck."

"We'll tell mommy you're dad tomorrow, brother."

"Yep."

"Plan, when are you going?" ask Anjani.

"Faster, better deck" Gusti said.

"When?" tanya Anjani needs certainty.

"Sunday yes" Gusti said.

"Ya gapapa sis. Mumpung kakut holiday." said Anjani.

"okkey. May mama be equally papa seneng." said Gusti hope.

"Mama papa happily must be brother, right, sister is not practicing." seduced Anjani while giggling.

"Well, you're on deck. What a joke, brother?"

"Engga mocked. But reality. Hahaha." Anjani said as she ran to her room.

"Sheep.." a small shout from Gusti's mouth.
