Women's Love Awareness
Chapter 9

"Calm, Neng. We seek while leaving it to God. Keep reading dhikr and sholawat so that God helps us," replied Mang Agus who continued to be wise and mature.

Bi Herni nodded back. They are now walking towards a pendopo that looks already quiet but still sounds human in it.

"Is it possible that he studied here?" bi Herni tried to guess.

Mang Agus shook his head slightly, "Not necessarily, Neng. For a moment, try to look at the back of the pendopo," he replied, who then put his foot to the back.

While Bi Herni looks still in front of the pendopo. Now he sits his ass on the porch of the pendopo.

"Oh Allah, help us to seek Alinda. Protect him wherever he is. Forgive us if you have hurt the orphan girl," Bi Herni whispered as he raised his hands to the sky.

Ustadz Destaqi who was in the pendopo seemed to step foot. He faintly heard the sound of footsteps outside and was joined by the voice of a woman. But, of course, it was unclear what the woman was saying.

"Whose voice is that? Is there anyone outside?" muttered the handsome Ustadz while continuing to step his feet unsuspecting.

Ustadz Destaqi is still in the pendopo alone. He intends to spend the night in the newly filled pendopo.

"Huh, right. There's someone outside. But, who? Looks like mothers," muttered Ustadz Destaqi in heart.

He opened the front door of the big pendopo. At that time, Bi Herni looked turned his head and was half shocked because there was Ustadz Destaqi in the pendopo.

"Maa Shaa Allah, Ustadz Taqi. I'm sorry if I'm bothering Ustadz" said Bi Herni, who appeared to be standing as Ustadz Destaqi appeared.

"Not at all, Ceu. Loh, what's Ceu Herni doing here? Looking for Kang Agus?" tanya Ustadz Destaqi astonished.

"Eum, that .. anu, I'm tea...." Bi Herni looked nervous and confused. Of course he had to hide what he was doing there.

"Why, Ceu? Can I help you?" ask Ustadz Destaqi again.

"Oh, no, Ustadz. I tea actually—" not until Bi Herni finished his speech, suddenly the sound of Mang Agus interrupted him.

"Subhanallah, aya Ustadz kasep horeng in the tea dieu," said Mang Agus who seemed to behave normally and as if nothing was happening.

(Subhanallah, there's a handsome Ustadz turned out here.)

Ustadz Destaqi smiled kindly and warmly, "Yaa Greetings, Kang Agus tea nuju naon oruh di dieu?" tanyakanya.

(Well, what is Kang Agus doing here?)

"I was tea looking for my slippers, Ustadz. The sandal tea was missing one" replied Mang Agus who was forced to lie. Of course, he did not want to tell the truth for fear of becoming a scene in the village.

"Allahu Akbar's. How anyway? Have you met yet, Kang? It must be because many were present," asked Ustadz Destaqi who now seemed to be rushing to step onto the terrace and circulate his gaze in all directions.

"Alhamdulillah, it's gone, Ustadz. But it's okay, anyway. It was a sandal. Hehehe," kekeh Mang Agus alibi.

"Oh, so yeah. Yes, if for example later I or the santri find the tepek sandals, will be quickly delivered to Kang Agus' house," said Ustadz Destaqi friendly.

Mang Agus nodded and smiled. "Well, then we'll go home, Ustadz" he said.

Ustadz Destaqi nodded, "Oh yes, Kang," the champion.

After being felt enough, Mang Agus and Bi Herni also returned to step their feet leaving the pendopo. This time they both looked west.

"Well, how is this, A? Why is Alin so hard to find. Did he really leave this village?" said Bi Herni who looked still anxious and trembling.

If earlier he could resist and try his usual course in front of Ustadz Destaqi, now he could no longer hold back his anxiety and panic.

"Propsy. May Allah guide us" said Mang Agus again calming.

"So Aa tea to dare to lie with Ustadz Taqi." Bi Herni stared bitterly.

"Aa conscious. But, it's because we cover up the disgrace of our family. Does not God command His servants to cover their own disgrace and the disgrace of others?" mang Agus said giving understanding to his wife.

Bi Herni nodded in understanding. "Yes, A. I understand" he said weakly.

They continued walking and looking for Alinda. To every place, the garden, the little alley. But they did not find the beautiful girl who was scooping it.

Meanwhile, Alinda who was upset was now seen sitting in the shabby cave. There is no bed for him to sleep on. But that's not what he's worried about. Because, he can sleep even without a pedestal.

"It looks like I really have to sell my father's and mother's house. That way, I can use that money for business capital. But, what effort, huh? This is a village, it must be very difficult to start a business from scratch," Alinda cerocos in heart.

No one knows what Alinda is doing right now. In fact, the beautiful girl seemed indifferent and thought of her aunt and uncle who were urgently looking for her with all panic and anxiety.

"Huft, there's a bathroom here. But there's no water, right? I want to read the Holy Quran which I have memorized" said Alinda who then stepped her foot into the bathroom in the back. Surely separated from the gubug.

It's twelve o'clock tonight. But Alinda is still literate and even now walks out the tubug and down the stairs to the bathroom. The atmosphere is quiet, dark, cold and of course haunted. But, the brave Alinda was not at all afraid even though she felt like someone was watching her.

After taking ablution. Alinda rushed back into the cave. Don't forget he's locked it in a meeting. It just so happened that the lock on the door was completely intact.

"A'udzu billaahi minasyaithoooni. Bismilbornrahmanirrahim." Alinda began to read taawudz and bismillah in the rhythm of the bayyati. Truly melodious and delicate voice of the beautiful girl.

Not in vain Alinda always participated in the study and rohis participants in his school first. So that he can learn the rhythm of the bayyati and so on. As a result, now his voice is very melodious and adem in the ears that hear it.

Alinda continued to break the silence of the night with the recitation of the holy Quran which he had memorized. The cold night was now warm with the recitation of the holy Quran coming out from the oral Alinda.

Meanwhile, when Bi Herni and Mang Agus were already feeling tired and desperate. They chose to return home and give everything to God. The plan is, they'll be back looking for Alinda in the morning.

SERIATE...
