《 FACE BEHIND VEIL 》

SAME WOUNDS Part5

Faiz should have graduated first in appeal to Alinka, but because Faiz Fakum used to be for 2 years to help the abi boarding school in Indonesia, so Faiz and Alinka graduates are together. Because Alinka can only finish his S1 college in cairo for 4 years while Faiz only takes 2 years to continue on his S2 degree in Medina.

"Finally we're in the room." Sahut Shema arrived at the dormitory while throwing a bag and laying his body on the mattress.

"The weather today is very hot huh Lin?" Continue asking Shema to Alinka who looks busy with her favorite cellphone.

"Lins... Alin... You are busy chat with who the hell? I'm in cuekin." Sahut Shema who began to see Alinka's behavior.

"Eh. emh.. no Shema, I'm just replying to Faiz's message." Alinka answered nervously.

"No papa kok Lin if you want to chat with him, I understand but just don't cuekin me." Jealous shema.

"This is it, Shema I won't be able to get you anymore." Alinka replied persuading Shema who was beginning to look sullen.

Then they began to rest together after the fatigue of today's activities.

In the middle of their break suddenly someone knocked on the door of the dorm.

Tok..tok..mr...!!!

"Assalamu'alaikum?" Someone at the door.

"Who's coming?" Tanya Shema woke up from her sleep who was just about to close her eyes.

"Let me open the door." Sahut Alinka while walking towards the front door.

After a few seconds Alinka was seen chatting for a moment with someone.

"Who's Lin?" Shema asked after Alinka's return from the dorm door.

"Oh that was the hostel mother, giving me a package." Reply Alinka who is seen carrying a parcel.

"What's that?" Tanya Shema was curious.

"That's it." Alinka answered while observing the parcel.

"We open up together." Alinka returned holding a pair of scissors.

Shema just nodded her head.

It turns out that the parcel is a souvenir of Indonesian specialties.

"Wah it turns out the contents of the food," said Alinka while removing one by one the food.

"It's Indonesian food, right?" Ask Shema while looking at all the parcels.

"Yes." Yeah." Replied Alinka focused on dismantling the parcel.

Then suddenly Alinka's phone shook.

Drt..drt...drt..!!!

"Tuh your phone shakes Lin." Appoint the Shema while helping to remove the contents of the parcel.

"Assalamu'alaikum?" Alinka said in a call.

"Wa'alaikumussalam.how have you received the deck package?" Ask Faiz.

"Oh this is from my sister?" Alinka.

"That's the deposit from umi, the brother who brought and the sister to the hostel mother when you've gone to campus." Answer Faiz.

"Thank you, brother, the package Alin has dismantled with Shema." Alinka is happy.

"Yes together, the food is shared with Shema ya deck." Faiz Message.

"Ready boss." Answer Alinka spirit.

Then the phone call ended and Alinka continued anboxing the shipment from Faiz again.

"Faiz huh?" Ask Shema.

"Yes." Yeah." Alinka replied with a smile.

"What's he saying?" Ask Shema back.

"So big brother, the food must be shared with Shema." Answer Alinka cheerfully.

"Faiz is fine, still looking for friends from his sister." Shema.

"Yaaa. that's Faiz's brother." Alinka said with a sweet smile.

After that they also neatly arrange the food stock and then continue the rest again.

3 Months passed so quickly, the time was getting closer to the happy moment Alinka, Yes.

"Shema, are all our supplies for tomorrow ready?" Ask Alinka while checking one by one the graduation equipment later.

"All our dongs just wait for tomorrow." Shema replied while tidying up all.

"Is your family here?" Ask Shema back.

"It was 3 days ago that they came, now they're staying at a hotel near here." Alinka answered with a happy smile.

"I want to get to know your real family, okay?" Ask Shema.

"Of course why not Shema." Hugging Shema Alinka answered her question.

"Thank you." Shema said with a smile.

"Sama-sama, later in the afternoon we will visit my family at the hotel." Alinka replied while still smiling.

And Shema nodded her head as if agreeing with Alinka's words.

***

At 15:00 local time,

"The Fakhry abi family didn't come here either?" Shema asked as she walked towards the hotel where the Alinka family was staying.

"Of course, but they're going to attend Faiz's graduation." Alinka replied as she continued walking down the road to where they were headed.

"After graduation, will you go back to Indonesia with your family?" Shema asked while she was sad.

"Maybe while waiting for all the new complete files of sincerity I can go home." Answer Alinka.

"While you have to wait a month?" Tanya Shema was happy.

"Yaaa" said Alinka

"I'm happy because I can still be with you for a few days." Sahut Shema's.

Alinka smiled and hugged Shema.

After a few minutes of travel, they arrived at the hotel they were headed to.

"What floor and room number is your family staying in Lin?" Shema asked while looking around her.

"Say on the 15th floor, room number 290" Alinka replied still feeling confused.

"You know, let's just ask the receptionist." Shema Proposal.

Alinka nodded and they immediately approached the receptionist before them.

After asking about the whereabouts of his family, they immediately headed to the place where the receptionist pointed out.

And they arrived at the room that the Alinka family lived in.

Alinka immediately knocked on the door a few times and the door opened quickly..

"Assalamu'alaikum...??" Alinka said as her abi opened the door.

"Wa'alaikumussalam.. kid...!!!" Sahut abi Hasan was happy and quickly embraced his youngest daughter.

"Who's bi?" Ask your mother from behind.

"See who's coming?" Said Abi while showing Alinka to her biological mother.

"Betc...!!!" Sahut mother while running towards Alinka then embrace and hug her tightly.

"Mother miss son, 3-year-old mother parted ways with you, are you all right?" Ask mom while hugging and kissing Alinka.

"Alhamdulillah ma'am, Alin is healthy, mom is same abi and brother how are you?" Alinka.

"We're all fine but we miss you so much son." Sahut Abi and Alinka's mother.

"Dad abi, mother, introduce this my best friend's name is Shema." Alinka said while introducing Shema who was standing behind Alinka.

"Shema introduced this abi Hasan and Halimatusa'diah's mother, abi and my birth mother." Keep saying Alinka.

Shema then greeted him and kissed the hand of Abi and Alinka's biological mother.

"It's so pretty your best friend son" said the mother, praising Shema.

"Indeed ma'am, she's Alin's most beautiful best friend Alin has ever known." Alinka replied while glancing towards Shema and Shema as if blushing in shame.

"Ah mother excessive son mother also Alinka no less beautiful and sholihah in appeal I ma'am." Shema replied while blushing in shame.

"The two are beautiful for mothers with their respective advantages and disadvantages, may your friendship stay awake until jannah ya." Said Alinka's birth mother while hugging the two of them.

"Aamiin.." said Alinka and Shema.

Then they were invited in and the mother would immediately prepare a small dish for Shema and Alinka.

"MashaAllah... Indonesian snacks, it's been a long time Alin did not eat this mom, here there is no snack like this." Sahut Alinka enthusiastic.

"She ate it, son, I brought it all from home." Answer the birth mother Alinka while presenting all Alinka's favorite snacks.

"This is what Alin?" Shema's whisper looked puzzled looking at all these foods.

"It's my hometown's typical Shema snack including my favorite snack." Alinka answered with a happy smile.

"This is what's her name?" Shema asked while showing one of the foods to Alinka.

"This is called banana chips." Alinka.

"Banana?" Shema was confused.

"Isn't banana one of the fruits that taste sweet, how can bananas be made of chips?" Shema asked, confused.

"Yaaa.. but bananas that are to be made into chips must be bananas that are still raw so the texture and taste is still hard and tasteless, then bananas like that can be made into chips." Obviously Alinka at length.

Shema nodded as if she understood what Alinka explained.

"Take a taste of it." Alinka.

Shema tried to taste the food.

"Sweak, salty, crisp and crunchy like photatto chips yes." Sahut Shema while tasting the banana chips.

"You likey?" Ask Alinka.

"Hem." Answer Shema.

"Where do you say you don't look?" Ask Alinka.

"With you back to sleep, son, it looks like he's tired of the ride." Answer the mother while serving all typical Indonesian food from small meals to heavy meals.

"Oh yaudah met my brother tomorrow at the event venue." Alinka.

"She's calm, son, your brother will always be ready to be next to you now." Replied the mother while stroking Alinka's face.

After introducing Shema to her biological family and letting go of the longing that had been unstoppable for 3-4 years, Alinka rushed back to the dormitory and prepared to welcome a happy tomorrow.

"Mom, Alin said to go back to the dorm first yes, later in the morning Alin had booked MUA to make over mother for Alin's graduation event, Alin wanted everything special for tomorrow." Alinka told her mother.

"MUA? Though gausah mother does not want to dance and menor-menor ordinary course." Answer Alin's mother who feels awkward to make in the make over with MUA.

"Nobody this once was just a mom for Alin." Alinka said, pleading.

Finally, she granted her wish.

"Yaudah Alin go home first ma'am, Assalamu'alaikum." Alinka kisses her mother.

"Wa'alaikumussalam." Abi and Alinka's mother.

After walking for a while, Alinka and Shema arrive at their beloved dormitory, they immediately rest to save energy for a tomorrow full of surprises.

"Lin, MUA have you contacted him when should he come and start his duties here?" Tanya Shema confirmed.

"It's ready their Shema came before dawn." Answer Alinka.

"Clothes..?" Ask Shema back.

"This laundry just drove her to the hostel mother and the hostel mother immediately gave it to me." Alinka answered while showing a dress that is very beautiful and graceful.

"Our glow well" Shema said as she looked at her new clothes.

"We are twins but not as lustful as you are." said Alinka laughing and hugging Shema.

"Later tonight the ummah will come here to nginep last night because MUA we are all the same from one MUA, your mother did not tell Lin to come here? Let's let each other escape tonight." Shema said giving Alinka a suggestion.

"Yes also yes, if you wait for the MUA to finish making up from here afraid of bad luck again later to come to the mother's inn." Alinka said while pensive.

Then Alinka rushed to pick up her phone intending to contact her brother to deliver mother to the dorm.

Tuuutt...!!! Tuuutt...!!!

The voice of the phone also sounded loud.

"A long time ago my brother picked up the phone is still sleeping him," Alinka grumbled

Not long after..

"Hallo.. Assalamu'alaikum...??" Husna's brother said in a call.

"Wa'alaikumussalam.. ah brother for a long time brother picked up the phone, brother is still sleeping huh?" Sahut Alinka complains to her brother.

"It was late in the afternoon when my brother was still sleeping on the deck, my brother was out of the bathroom, oh yeah sorry I didn't see you, what is it now you call?" Ask Alinka's sister.

"The place is that you don't know" replied bang Husna.

"Relax Alin Shareloc now." Alinka.

"OK deh but ask permission abi also fear abi not ngizinin." Message bang Husna.

"Beres is mah sis, okay later anterin mom come here yak please." Alinka said pleading.

"Yes yes." replied Alinka's sister.

And the phone call ended shortly.

After asking for permission on abi and abi also allowed the mother to stay at the Alinka dormitory, bang Husna then drove the mother with instructions shareloc that Alinka had sent.

It was a very beautiful night for Alinka and Shema, because they could sleep with their mother and ummah respectively. After a long time separated by distance and time also busyness.

***

At 21:00 local time,

Before going to bed, Alinka had a short conversation with her mother.

"At last Alin can sleep with mom again, can hug mom again and can feel warm and smell the scent of mother's body." Alinka said while hugging her mother tightly.

"Sleep son, tonight I'm right next to you, I don't know how long we've never slept like this again yeah, since you're an adult, it's getting harder and harder to touch you." Reply mother while stroking and kissing Alinka's forehead.

And that night Shema and Alinka fell asleep in their mother's and ummah's donkey just as they were when they were babies.

***

The clock shows at 06:00 Shema and Alinka immediately prepare to shower and pray at dawn, then start make up.

After the mother and Alinka wake up at 03.00 am because they are accustomed to performing the tahajud prayer first.

Then Alinka, mother, Shema and Ummah also one by one began to be made over by MUA who had Shema message in advance.

***

Right at 07.00 am all was finished in the make over and just waiting for Wan Aziz to pick them up with a vehicle that Aziz had prepared for the Alinka family as well.

Suddenly there was a loud sound of car horns in front of the gate, then everyone prepared and approached the horn.

It turns out that Aziz and the other car are ready to pick up Alinka and the family.

"Are you ready for the Ummah?" Wan Aziz asked Rubya.

"It's okay, we just pick up Abi and Alinka's brother who stayed not far from here." Ummah Rubya.

"Let's leave immediately so that we arrive at the graduation place can be appealed to other invited guests." Sahut wan Aziz while allowing mother and Alinka into the car that has been specially prepared for him.

They also immediately headed to the abi Hasan abi Alinka's birth father.

A few moments later they arrived in front of the inn and Alinka ran inside to pick up her ashes.

Dressed in a dress and makeup typical graduation Alinka looks like a princess who is picking up her prince, all eyes are on her fluttering veil that makes every eye shady in the making add coolness when looking at her, there was no desire or lust when he saw the form of Alinka dressed like that, she only looks as a very polite and graceful Muslim princess.

Finally Alinka arrived at the door of the inn room and immediately knocked on the door.

Then he opened the door and Abi was very fascinated when he first saw the appearance of Alinka is very different from usual.

"Alin's? Is this really you?" Abi asked when she saw Alinka.

"Well, why does Alin look so weird?" Answer Alinka

"It's not strange, baby, it's just that Abi first saw you look like this." Abi said as he continued to look at his daughter.

"Alin has come bi?" Sahut bang Husna from behind abi.

"MashaAllah... Alin... Is this really you?" Sahut bang Husna was again surprised.

"Why brother?" Ask Alinka

"Beautiful as yasmin's daughter you are Lin." Sahut bang Husna while looking at Alinka from the head to the tip of the foot.

"Yeah, yasudah, let's leave soon we're late again." Alinka said while holding abi's hand and they left.

After arriving in front of the gate all asked him.

"How long have you Lin said you were inside?" Ask Shema

"Abi and brother suddenly didn't recognize me." Alinka said with a smile.

"Himply, Alinku will now be transformed into princess yasmin." Sahut Shema while nudging Alin's shoulder.

"What the hell are you Shema like a brother just use say look like princess yasmin, but princess yasmin is just a fairy tale." Answer Alinka.

"Will this real princess, Alinka's beautiful daughter surpass yasmin's daughter, sholeh anyway, isn't it bang?" Sahut Shema rebuked bang Husna.

"C.ii..ii..ii ukhty...!!!" Answer bang Husna nervously.

"Call me Shema." Said Shema while extending her hand inviting acquaintance to bang Husna.

"Husna.." replied bang Husna with a smile.

Not long after, they left for the building where the event took place.

***

A few hours later they arrived at their destination and Shema and Alinka immediately entered the room first to follow the preparations before the event began.

"Daddy, mom... Alin said to go in first, yes, later the same mother abi and wan Aziz also ummah enter only after the event at the start of the event has not been opened the same mother abi can wait at the place that has been provided by the committee." Alinka said to her parents.

Then the mother and abi agreed to Alinka's words.

"Let's Shema we go in all the lecturers and friends have gathered in the room." Take Alinka while pulling Shema's hands excitedly.

Shema also just followed the steps of Alinka who was happy.

All friends said pangling saw the appearance of Alinka at that time, looks very beautiful and elegant including the ustadzah Laila was a lecturer who almost became Alinka's in-laws praised him.

"Alin, this is Alinka, right? The woman who used to be in Amer's cab of my son?" Laila's ustadzah greeted her in front of the lobby.

"Yes ustadzah, it turns out ustadzah still remembers me." Answer Alinka friendly.

"It turns out you're beautiful too, baby used to not be my daughter-in-law and now Amer has become a widower because in his wife's stay cheating and he also left a daughter with him, she also left a daughter with him, now I have to take care of the grandson and his father back." The story of Laila.

It was a shock when Alinka heard the news, he did not expect, the person he once admired was destroyed by the hope of a mother who actually misjudged someone just by looking at the situation when someone was difficult, he said, but the Alinka he had doubted success went even further and managed to shine beyond the success of Laila's own choice of women at that time.

Then...

"Are you willing to take my son back?" Ask ustadzah Laila.

"Emh.. sss.." he was interrupted by Shema's speech first.

"Sorry before ustadzah, now Alinka already has a prospective husband and soon will get married." Shema answered while tightly grasping Alinka's hand.

"Is that really Alinka?" Ask ustadzah Laila.

Shema also tried to give Alinka the code for her speech.

"Iii.ii.ii.iya ustadzah sorry before." Alinka answered nervously.

"Who is Alin's man, is he Egyptian or native to your homeland?" Ask ustadzah Laila curious.

"The name of Alinka's future husband is Faiz ustadzah, a, he is a native of Indonesia and he is also the son of a big kyai in his city and happens to be Alinka had devoted himself in the boarding school owned by his father as an ustadzah." Shema clearly with her own imagination.

"Is that so Alinka?" Ask ustadzah Laila.

"Iii.ii.iya is absolutely right about ustadzah." Alinka answered very nervously following Shema's lies.

"It's a pity that you are, but Amer still loves Alinka." Ustadzah Laila.

Then Laila's custody passed by their death.

"Uuuhh.. eventually miss arrogant and senegri egyptian jutek went from before us Alin, I was very tense facing him." Sahut Shema sighed very long.

"Moreover me, you tell me to lie." Alinka said sadly.

"But this is for your good, if I don't lie, I make sure you won't be able to go back to Indonesia Alin, because you will be asked to marry Amer who has become a widower." Obviously Shema is upset.

Alinka was silent, unmoved,

"Here you go, I told you your candidate was Faiz's brother, your own brother." Said Shema while embracing her.

"Just let us in." Invite Shema while accompanying Alinka into the room of the graduation building.

"Who is it.. shhhhhhhhhhh..hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..!!!" Whispers from Alinka's college friends.

"He's Alinka, cw veiled from Indonesia, '" they said.

"Kok she's beautiful if dandan." Let them return.

"She's like a princess from a fairy tale." Say them while continuing to stare towards Alinka.

Without Alinka Gubris, Alinka and Shema continued to walk in front of the men.

"A few moments later the event will start and surely our parents will soon be invited into the room." Alinka said while choosing a seat in the second row from the front.

"Yes, I can't wait until we get a college degree." Sahut Shema enthusiastic.

And the event was immediately started, all parents/guardians of each student in the field sat in the place that has been provided.

"Anything, we are in the jannah til department, promise?" Shema.

And Alinka nodded her head, wiping the tears Shema also continued to hug Alinka as if she did not want to lose him.

A few moments after that, then all graduates are allowed to go out of the room and meet their families.

While walking to his family, Shema and Alinka hurriedly impatiently tell them the happy news.

"Oh, okay, be ready so, son." Umi and abi.

And not long after the video call ended.

Suddenly after a conversation with Fakhry's abi family, there was someone delivering a package in the form of a bouquet of super jumbo white roses.

"Yiang...!!!

Is this true with Alinka's ukhty?" Ask a courier to Alinka.

"Well, what's wrong, aky?" Answer Alinka.

"Thank you aky." Alinka

"Yes" replied the courier and he left.

"Who are you?" Alinka asked Shema while looking at the bouquet with curiosity.

Shema only scrunched her forehead as if she knew nothing.
