Afternoon.
Abraham invited his two children, his father-in-law, Mr. Udin and the bodyguards to perform ashar prayers at the mosque.
While Ashila, Arumi and Bela also perform ashar prayers at home only.
After performing the bersama'ah ashar prayer, Ashila and Arumi rushed to the kitchen to make an iftar menu.
While Bela, assigned to keep the tiny baby Asyila who was sleeping in the family room.
“Mother, let this sea fish Asyila who process it,” said Asyila and took over cleaning the sea fish to be used as fried fish sambal balado.
“Because Asyila has taken over, then I will cook another menu yes,” said Arumi as she stepped into the refrigerator to take vegetables in it.
Asyila smiled broadly at her mother who was opening the refrigerator and refocused on the sea fish in front of her.
“Before Lebaran, will you return to Bandung?” asked Arumi who sounded sad.
Asyila washed her hands and walked over to her mother, Arumi.
“Mother don't be sad, haven't we lived with Mom and Dad long enough? After all, in the future we will also meet again,” said Asyila while resuscitating her head on her mother's shoulder.
“Yes this is the fate of having the only daughter, if you are married will definitely follow her husband and her parents left,” said Arumi.
Asyila gave a small chuckle to hear his mother's words.
“Who left Dad and Mom? Didn't before Asyila and Mas Abraham had invited Father and Mother to live together,” explained Asyila.
“Iya it is true, but how else? We can not leave the house that already has so many memories,” reply Asyila.
“Then, Mom should not be sad. If you miss, God willing, we will contact you every day and Dad. However, if to meet you can not every time, Mother,” said Asyila.
Arumi turned towards her daughter and hugged her daughter instantly.
“Sorry baby, I just want to stay close to you guys. I don't mean to be selfish, if there was still Grandma Erna, I'm definitely not too lonely like this,” explained Arumi who also misses Grandma from her daughter-in-law.
“Asyila feels very happy and proud to know the figure of Grandma Erna. Although, Granny Erna is very ignorant and sometimes upsetting, still Granny Erna is a figure that Asyila greatly respects. Sometimes we go to the funeral yes Mother, Asyila also want to visit our deceased third son,”, Asyila told her mother.
“Iya dear, we will go together to visit them,” reply Arumi and release her embrace to resume their cooking activities.
As Ashila and Arumi were busy cooking, the greeting sounds of Abraham, Arsyad, Ashraf and Herwan were heard.
“Assalamu'alaikum!” say the four of them.
Arumi and Asyila at that time also left their work to immediately welcome the arrival of the four of them who had just returned from the Mosque to perform the prayers of the congregation.
“Wa’alaikumsalam,” reply Arumi and Asyila with their best smile.
Arumi and Asyila kiss the back of their husbands' hands. Later, Arsyad and Ashraf kissed the backs of their Mother and Grandma's hands in turn.
“Because you guys are home, Mom and Asyila want to go back to cooking in the kitchen,” said Arumi and rushed back to the kitchen to continue their duties to cook the iftar menu.
Arsyad ran after her mother who was in the kitchen.
“Arsyad why come here?” asyila asked her eldest son.
“You helped Mother and Grandma cook,” replied Arsyad.
“Don't be a pity, Arsyad in the family room just accompany Kak Bela to look after Brother Akbar. Let Mother and Grandma Arumi cook food for us to break the fast,” Asyila said while gently stroking Arsyad's hair.
“Arsyad also wants to help Mother, said ustadz and Abi who taught Arsyad should always help parents,” explained Arsyad to the Mother.
“What Ustadz and Abi say is true, dear. But, for this time Arsyad follow the orders of Mother yes!”
“Good, Mother. Arsyad to the family room ya accompany Kak Bela to look after Adik Akbar,” reply Arsyad and waltzed away to the family room.
Upon arrival in the family room, Arsyad approached his little sister who was sleeping at the time. After seeing her baby sister sleep soundly, Arsyad also took a book that he used to read often. I don't know how many times it has been read by Arsyad and even though he never got tired of reading the story book.
“That's what Arsyad?” ask Bela to Arsyad who is opening a page of his storybook.
“Tales book has Arsyad, Bela sister would like to borrow?” arshad asked Bela, who was sitting right next to him.
Bela quickly shook his head, he still could not read and could only spell it out was very limited.
“Why doesn't Bela want to read Arsyad's storybook? Arsyad even often read it many times and never get bored,” reply Arsyad.
Bela bit her own lips and turned her head towards Arsyad.
“I can't read,” said Bela with a little shame because he can't read.
“Really? Then let Arsyad teach Bela to read. Bela wants to learn to read with Arsyad?” tanya Arsyad volunteered to teach Bela to read.
“Kak Bela look carefully yes alphabet letters that Arsyad pointed, Oya Kak Bela has memorized letters from A to Z?” ask Arsyad.
“Not fully memorized,” Reply Bela as is.
“Kak Bela wait here for a while, Arsyad will take a pencil and a book in the room,” said Arsyad and immediately ran to his room to take a stationery to make it easier for him to teach Bela.
Bela was a little nervous because from the bottom of her heart, she was afraid of not being able to read in accordance with the expectations of Arsyad who wanted to teach her to read.
“Kak Bela, wait a minute. Arsyad will write the alphabet letters from A to Z first,” the bright Arsyad that just arrived and eagerly write letters from A to Z so that Bela can more easily memorize the letters of the alphabet.
Bela continued to pay attention to how Arsyad wrote the letters of the alphabet very well.
“Kak Arsyad!” call Ashraf who suddenly came and at that moment also sat beside the Big Brother.
“Yes, Brother Ashraf. What's up?” asked Arsyad while looking towards his interlocutor.
“Kak Arsyad what are you doing? Come accompany Ashraf to play outside!” pinta Ashraf invited his brother to accompany him to play in the front yard of the house.
“Play tomorrow only Yes Brother Ashraf. Sis Arsyad and Kak Bela want to study together, Ashraf also want to study together?” arsyad asked his sister.
Ashraf gave his lips and agreed to study together.
“Smart sister, if so Arsyad continued to write it yes,” said Arsyad and resumed his task of writing letters.
When finished, Arsyad asked Bela to focus on paying attention to his textbook which he had written alphabetic letters.
“Now Brother Bela follow Arsyad's words!” arsyad Pinta.
Bela also followed all the words of Arshad who was mentioning one by one the letters of the alphabet.
Unbeknownst to the three children, Abraham noticed how Arshad had a very good soul and leadership attitude. Abraham as Father really felt very proud of the person of his eldest son.
“Yes Allah, thank you for giving us such a kind heart of personality, may Ashraf and Akbar also be like their Brother, Arsyad,” said Abraham monologue.
A few moments later.
Arsyad smiled broadly when he learned that Bela was slowly beginning to recognize the letters of the alphabet.
“Tomorrow we learn again Yes Brother Bela, Arsyad sure Kak Bela will quickly be able to read eloquently,” said Arsyad and applauded eagerly for Bela.
Arumi and Asyila had finished cooking the iftar menu. The two women looked very happy and decided to rest in the living room and chat with Herwan and Abraham.
“Mas why smile yourself like that?” ask Asyila who was sitting right next to her husband.
“Right now Mas is very happy, Arsyad our eldest son is really a great boy. Mas proud of Arsyad,” said Abraham half whispered.
“Really? What has Arsyad done to the point that Mas is so happy?”
“If Syila is curious, go to the living room and see what Arsyad is doing!”
“Alright, Asyila to the family room first then. Asyila wants to see what really happened,” Asyila said and walked towards the living room excitedly.
When Asyila wanted to get closer, she quickly stopped her steps and half-hidden. At the time, Arshad was teaching Bela to read.
“We have already yes Kak Bela, Arsyad does not want Kak Bela even bored because it continues to learn,” said Arsyad.
Bela quickly shook her head, “Don't first Arsyad, I like you teach me to read. Look, now I can already mention the letters of the alphabet from A to Z because of you,” Reply Bela.
“No. It was not because of Arsyad, but because of the will of Kak Bela. Hence Bela can quickly memorize the letters of the alphabet that Arsyad taught,” reply Arsyad.
“Masya Allah, it is fitting that Mas Abraham said as before and praised the personality of Arsyad,” Asyila said with a look of admiration.
Baby Akbar suddenly cries and Asyila quickly approaches her tiny baby.
“It's okay, you guys keep learning. Mommy will take your sister to the room,” said Asyila who did not want to disturb Arsyad, Ashraf and also Bela who was studying together.
Asyila held her little baby and walked away from them.
Upon arrival in the room, Ashila began to breastfeed her tiny baby.
“Honey, drink milk bath yes. Already at this hour, Mommy almost forgot to bathe Akbar. Sorry Mother yes dear,” said Asyila to her tiny baby who was breastfeeding.
Abraham, who was talking in the living room, decided to leave his seat and meet his two sons.
“Again watch ya babe?” abraham asked Arshad and Ashraf.
“Iya Father!” they are very compact.
