that afternoon the weather looked unfriendly.dry rain accompanied the departure of Hanum's mother, the mother of Annisa.
nature also seemed to grieve because of the departure of a very extraordinary mother figure.
Annisa held tightly to the Qur'an in her hand, reading it sobbing to calm her deeply troubled feelings.
Reyna, Lisa and Dwi who were next to her always hugged and tried to strengthen her.
neighbors had gathered, and also felt the sadness of losing Hanum, a very good figure in their eyes.
even Reyhan and Reyna's parents were present at the time.
fardu kifayah has been carried out, the funeral process is over.
one by one, the people began to leave the funeral.
and finally there were only a few people left nearby Annisa, as well as Reyhan and his family.
"Nisa.. mother is sorry for the passing of your mother.you must remain strong, dear. always pray for her, may she be solemn and given the best place by Allah.."
said Ms. Nirmala sincerely while hugging Annisa who is still sobbing.
"Losing the person we love most is painful, but, I am sure, you will be able to get through it. Every inch of whatever is in the world belongs to God, including ourselves whom God has entrusted to us, and if one day God wants to take it back, we must sincerely return it. Because behind that sincerity, Allah has left us with a very great grace.."
continued Mr. Restu who also tried to strengthen Annisa.
"thank you sir, ma'am, God willing I will try sincerely.
for I am sure that whatever God has ordained, is best for His servant.."
answered Annisa who was still crying a mouthful.
"Rey, Ina, papa and mama go back first. y'all accompany Annisa, until she's right2 calm down.."
"yes pa.."
answer Reyhan
"Nisa, father and mother say goodbye first.you are patient.."
Annisa nodded slowly.
"Cha. You must remain strong, you are not alone kokk. You still have me, also friend2 who love and care about you.."
lisa said while hugging her best friend.
"sister Lisa is not alone.. Ina also loves her sister.for Ina, that sister is like Ina's own sister.."
tymphal Reyna
"thank you very much. You keep me company in my worst situation.I am grateful, because God found me with person2 like you.."
annisa answered and was immediately reciprocated with a hug by Lisa and Reyna.
meanwhile, Dwi who had been standing a little far from the other position was guessing in his heart what exactly was Annisa's relationship with Reyhan, because they look so close that his parents who are very rarely in Indonesia also took the time to carry out fardu kifayah Hanum's mother.
but at least the girl understood, not a good time to discuss it.
"Nisa. I say yes first, I also pray, may your mother khusnul khotimah.."
said Dwi while stroking Annisa's shoulder and replied to a nod by the girl.
and finally only Reyhan, Reyna and Lisa are still loyal to accompany Annisa in the cemetery.
"Cha. it's late afternoon.we go home yuk. You must be tired.."
whispered Lisa.
then Lisa and Reyna pick up Lisa who is still sobbing.
when walking a few steps, arrived2 Annisa almost collapsed. lucky there is Lisa and Reyna who wiped it until she did not fall.
-----------------------------------------------
that night Lisa and Reyna decide to accompany Annisa at her home, because the girl seems still very devastated to have lost her mother.
(IMPORTANT INFO...!!!please excuse the author not to make a procession of tahlilan in this part, because according to the law of Shari'a tahlilan it is heresy and is considered as an act of wailing which is prohibited by the Prophet according to the hadith of Imam Ibn Majah no.1612 With sanad sahih)
-----------------------------------------------
after praying Isya, Annisa re-opened the Quran and read it.
undeniably, his heart was still very shaken at the passing of his mother.
but he also did not want to be in sadness.
for what God has ordained will surely prevail, and no one will be able to resist.
-----------------------------------------------
that night Reyhan looked very agitated.
many times he got up from his bed while rubbing his face.
the last message was that Hanum had just as soon as he breathed his last breath back in his ear.
"Mother put Annisa on you.. Please take care of him.."
those words made him angry and worried.
"bu Hanum. I am afraid ma'am...
I'm not a good man, ma'am..."
Reyhan murmured.
a moment later he rose up to take ablution water, then looked solemn with the Qur'an in his hands.
the time before 01:00 in the morning when Reyhan closed the Qur'an in his hands, then the man did the prayer tahajud.
"Yes Allah... You are the one who designed all things, and all things are done of Your will, so please servant O Allah, give servant guidance.."
that is a piece of do'a that the man with the nose said at the end of his prayer.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
meanwhile, Annisa's home...
The girl had also just finished performing the tahajud prayer.
glanced at the bed, Lisa and Reyna had already slept peacefully.
"thank you, you'll be there when I fall.."
he murmured while shedding tears.
she pulled a blanket to cover Reyna's body.
"Thank you for thinking of me as your sister.."
then Annisa laid her body on the mattress.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
that morning Annisa woke up earlier than the others.
the girl was used to getting up before dawn to perform dawn prayers.
he saw two women who had accompanied him since yesterday were still asleep, he undoed his intention to wake Lisa and Reyna.
"they must be tired, since yesterday accompanied me who was in a state of chaos.."
muttered.
after cleaning up and performing dawn prayers, Annisa heads to the kitchen to cook breakfast.
"hemmm.. I'm cooking fried rice.hopefully they like it.."
then Annisa started to get busy with all the kitchen utensils.
it was exactly 06:00 in the morning when Annisa finished her fight with kitchen equipment.
Reyna had just come out of the room to the bathroom to perform the morning ritual.
lisa is busy cleaning the house.
"Nis... Did you leave today..?"
asked Lisa to approach Annisa who was still in the kitchen.
"hemm. I think this morning I'm going to Lis's restaurant, first,
there are some things I need to take care of..
you know for yourself, since my mother is sickly restaurant rarely managed..
fortunately, there was Diana who had been ngehandle.."
"hemm. yaudah, all of you with me.."
lisa
"eeh no need Lis. kan different directions.ntar you are late ngampus loh. I can take the bus kokk. anyways this morning you have a presentation task right.."
"oh yaa.. astaghfirullah. almost I forgot. medkyu yaa Nis already ngingetin me.."
then Lisa hurriedly prepared.
meanwhile, Reyna has been seen neatly wearing her school uniform because from today she is enrolled in a normal school.
"sister, you want to go together..?"
ask Reyna

"no, brother, I just chat brother Rey.brent again he picked up.."
"ohh. yaudah, you have breakfast first yes. brother already prepared fried rice.."
then Reyna sat down at the table and began to enjoy the fried rice made by Annisa.
"sister.this vow is so delicious looh..."
praise Reyna with a sparkling face.
"alhamdulillah if you like.."
reply Annisa
"sister.sis sure it's okay at home..?"
ask Reyna suddenly
"God willing, brother is fine Na. You don't have to worry.."
annisa replied with a smile.
suddenly Reyna hugged Annisa.
"if you need a friend, or need anything, you should not hesitate to tell Ina. because for Ina, that brother is like Ina's own sister.."
unknowingly Annisa shed tears haru. she did not expect the young girl who had been known to be spoiled and childish, at times like this could actually be wise.
"thank you very much Na. because you have nemenin brother, comfort sister, and try to strengthen brother.."
lirih.
"it's not just Ina. Rey's brother is also worried about banger same brother. last night brother Rey back and forth chat I just for mastiin the condition of brother.."
deg.....
annisa's heart was beating unnaturally again.
but he hurriedly brushed it off with a fistighfar in his heart.
"sister.. Can Ina ask for something..?"
"what do you want to ask Na..?"
"can Ina call brother Icha..?"
Annisa nodded with a smile, although on her face there was still deep sorrow after being left behind by the person she cared about the most.
soon, Reyhan arrives to pick up Reyna.
"you're better than Nis..?"
that was the first sentence Reyhan asked when he was standing before Annisa.
"alhamdulillah.much better.thank you Rey, because you permitted Ina to keep me here.."
annisa replied sincerely.
"trus you didn't miss today..?
wanna be together..?"
"this morning I plan to check Rey's resto.all I need to take care of it too.."
"have let me anterin with Ina yaa. The restaurant is the same as Ina school.."
Annisa nodded.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
arriving direstaurant...
"assalamualaikum's chat.."
Annisa greeted the employees who were at work.
"waalaikumsalam mbak Nisa's.."
then Annisa walked towards the back room,
to meet mbak Diana, the assistant of her late mother who had been handling the restaurant.
"Nisa... How are you doing, nis..?"
diana asked as she hugged Annisa
"alhamdulillah good news mbak Di. sorry I came suddenly.."
diana nodded
"let anywhere now this restaurant has become your right Nis.."
Annisa nodded.
"mbak Di.. actually there is a problem what in the resto..?
mom never told me the same thing about the problem at this restaurant.even until mom was sick, it was because I thought the same about this restaurant...
what's the problem really..?"
Diana took a deep breath
"Nisa.. previously never promised your mother not to tell you any problems here, but because now she does not exist, and you are the heir of this restaurant.. I think you need to know the problem.."
Annisa sat on the sofa, staring at Diana.
"so in fact, my mother used to work with one of the investors to develop this restaurant.
mother then borrowed a large amount of funds, and planned to renovate this restaurant to make it look more luxurious and classy.
when the loan funds are in hand, suddenly your father has an accident with severe injuries.
because at that time your mother was focusing on the condition of your father, she entrusted the resto to mas Toto, a trusted employee of the mother at that time.
even the mother gave up all the funds that I had borrowed from investors to be regulated by Mas Toto.
but unfortunately, mas Toto actually damaged the trust of the mother.
he just ran away with the money that mom left him with.that's where all the trouble started.."
mbak Diana explained the problem that occurred in the restaurant.
"astaghfirullah..trus what about the loan money problem mbak..? how much did I borrow..?"
"at that time I borrowed 1.5M Nis..
and some of them are great-grandmothers..
but since last month, the investor actually wants to take over this restaurant.they plan to build an inn complete with a mini bar. of course, the mother refused.. because in addition to the place that will be used to perform later, the mother is also still thinking about the fate of the employees in this restaurant..
if this restaurant is taken over by investors, then all employees here will lose their jobs..
as you know Nis.The majority of employees at this restaurant are 2 people with minimal education, and are almost four heads. surely it will be very difficult for them to find another decent job.."
Annisa took in her breath which began to feel tight.
"is there any other way than handing over this restaurant to investors..?"
"the only way, we have to pay off the remaining debt Nis. the amount is 850 million.."
Annisa covered her mouth with her hands, her cries spilling out.
"astaghfirullah.this is what Allah is about...."
Annisa was crying.
Annisa stepped out of the restaurant with a careless step.
heart raging.
just now that he had lost his mother, this time he was also unable to maintain the restaurant that his mother had built so hard. he lost everything.there was nothing left. suddenly his gaze felt blurry, blurry, dark and finally...
brukkkk
Annisa collapsed in front of the restaurant.
