We've Been Matchmade
Best Graduation and Announcement

Turns out Dinda wasn't as bad as I imagined. He learns quickly, can solve problems well. During these three months, he had actually made use of the break hours to catch up. As the saying goes, there is effort and there is a result.

Today, the day before the graduation exam, he managed to work on two-thirds of the questions I gave him and they were all right.

"You're really amazing!" so anxious, I did not realize I rubbed Dinda's head until she dodged. I realized I was sorry. Fortunately he wears a veil, otherwise I could touch his head. "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it." I said. "So it's because you got the problem right."

Our conversation stopped because the teacher came in. During the lesson I was not calm, I kept thinking, is Dinda angry? But from his usual attitude it doesn't seem. But I couldn't lie after the incident I was sitting next to Dinda.

The bell rings. Before leaving, Dinda thanked me for helping her. He promises to try as much as possible to graduate with good grades. He had made a decision to go to UIN because targeting lectures abroad would be heavy, especially now his mother is sick.

"You also survived Dihya, already accepted at the Faculty of Medicine invitation line. You are cool. Good luck in the future!" said Dinda. He waved his hand and disappeared among the other students who also wanted to go home soon.

Staying alone in class, so I also followed out through the corridor to the school parking to take my motorcycle. There was Amira there. He was a little excited when he saw me.

"Who are you waiting for Mir?" my many. Try as often as possible.

"I'm sorry I got back to interrupting. There's something I want to ask." he lowered his gaze. "Are you really going to accept that match? I mean, is it final. I know Dinda's a good kid, but is that really your choice?"

"I will follow the wishes of my parents, Mir." I replied.

"Oh, so. Yes, already then. Oh yeah, congratulations Dihya, you've been accepted into medicine." he's still down. "May you be happy always ya Dihya." Amira looked confused. He even walked in a bit of a daze as he left me.

Ahhh I can only hope that the girl is okay. Some say that the first heartbreak is painful. I hope Amira can understand and hopefully one day at the right time she can find the right match as well. Now is the time to pursue each other's ideals.

These two weeks the third grade students are preoccupied with graduation exams and school exams. After that there are those who are happy to prepare for college entrance.

I myself because I have been accepted as a prospective new student of medical faculty at the University in this city do not follow the bill. The time I have used to help Abah and Umi with a job as a travel umrah. Counting internships adds experience.

Because he doesn't go to school anymore, he can't meet Dinda. It feels like something is different. Can't see the unique behavior of classmates who turned out to be betrothed to me. No friends argue also in the beginning of a long time ago he always protested every time I gave him questions that he thought was very difficult but in the end he who was even addicted wanted to be given more questions any more. I honestly miss Dinda, but I don't know how to meet her. Yesterday, before the exam he had said that he would not join the stand at the tutoring but private so as not to leave his mother too long. Actually I wanted to offer myself as his private tutor but since Dinda didn't understand the code I gave plus I also had the prestige of volunteering so it didn't.

"She, just shut up. Did you finish the job Abah gave you?" asked Abah who saw me pensive.

"Eh yes Abah, sorry. It's just a little bit more." I hurriedly focus on the laptop screen, editing videos for travel promotion that this year will be more promos to attract many prospective pilgrims.

"Gee ... Abba ... Abahsharp!" Umi ran to Abah's office next to our house exactly.

"Fifi bah, Fifi ..." umi wiped her falling tears.

"Why Fifi?" Abah asked back.

"Fifi died" said Umi "So her sister just informed her that Fifi had died just now. It's on the way home from the hospital to the house." umi told about the news that she got from her aunt Dinda that this morning her mother returned to relapse so immediately rushed to the hospital, but unfortunately, not long after getting help from a doctor, Aunt Fifi died.

Innalilahi wa Inna ilaihi Raji. Abah and I prayed for Dinda's mother. Now I can imagine how sad the girl was because I knew she was very close to her mother.

"Yes let's go to the funeral home now" Abah said.

"Well, Dihya's coming" I said. Unfortunately Abah asked me to stay for a while in the office in place of Abah because there was an appointment with prospective pilgrims who wanted to register.

"You will follow after the guest comes" said Abah.

The real weight, but I have no other choice because this is Abah's request. Although I actually wanted to meet Dinda to strengthen.

After Abah and Umi left, I unceasingly contacted the would-be pilgrims who made promises to hasten their arrival. How could they have told me to wait patiently while there my future wife was sad because her mother died.

The guests were Amira and her parents. They want to go to Umrah to pray for Amira's graduation. At that time I could see Amira was not too excited. He looked empty, unlike the Amira I used to know. Even when his parents talk to him, he is like a god.

Is it because of my heart problem? I don't know, but he obviously doesn't seem to care.

"Sorry mom, this can be resolved as soon as I have to visit my friend, his mother just died" I said.

"Innalilahi wa Inna ilaihi Raji. Who died Dihya?" ask Amira's mother who is my religious teacher at school.

"Dinda's mom, Mom." I said.

"Dinda's mom?" Amira responds. "Yes Allah. Dihya, may I come with you to Dinda's house, I also want to come to mourn." said Amira.

At first I was heavy to carry it with me but because his parents allowed it I agreed.
