Pandu woke up before the dawn of the adhan reverberated. Praying one third of the night he had done. Study for a while and continue with the dawn prayer. He is really ready. Ready to attend to her own wedding. Today, the day on which he will mention the name of the woman in his hijab. Promise before everyone and the Khaliq to bring and guide the woman he chooses.
Beskap suits complement his good looks. The group of family and friends have been present with a sense of happiness they will witness the marriage Pandu. Now, he's waiting in his room. Waiting for their departure time to the woman's residence. Friday is the best choice.
In his spare time like this, his pranks arise to tempt Jihan. A short message he sent.
Pandu : "Assalamualaikum...."
3 Minutes no reply. Makes those lips feel bad. It failed. However, there is a whatsapp notification coming in. And that's Jihan.
Jihan : "Goodnight.... Don't be so sweet."
Guides read the message while laughing. He also shared a laughing emoticon to make fun of Jihan.
Jihan: "I'm nervous." Complementing the griny smile emoticons.
Pandu feels different from the way Jihan talks who calls herself "me". Normally, Jihan was only used to her Jakartan accent.
Pandu : "I?? How do you turn soft the way you talk?"
Jihan : "Yahhh.... Can't you?! I've changed it."
Pandu : "Eits. It's better to hear that I'm you."
Jihan: "Then you are also dong. Don't be too formal to call yourself me."
Scrutin : "Hahaha.... Okay, Jihan. I'll learn to get used to you."
back to giving emoticons a smile.
Whatsapp messages end. Because they are called to prepare themselves. Jihan accompanied by Alya, Sekar, Anggini and Hanum could only fall silent and pray for all to walk solemnly. Their hands were trying to neutralize Jihan's nervousness.
Families and invited guests have started to be in the area. And the WO committee has informed that the Pandu group is getting closer. At exactly 10 WIB, Pandu and his family arrived. The voice of the MC who guided the walk of the event had already begun to be heard in Jihan's ears. Jehan's breathing is irregular. He's never this big.
"Jihan, many dhikr. God willing, everything is going well."
Consider it what he did. 1 hour wait, the WO committee came back again and asked Jihan's group to go down. Jihan stood up and assisted her cousins. The white kebaya sequin features a scarf as its head covering. High heels make it difficult for the road. Hands are cold sweat. Smile try to engrave so as not to be too obvious nervousness.
The guide who was already sitting in front of the headman and in front of papa Jihan was also very nervous and anxious. He was afraid of making mistakes he didn't want. Before long, the look in his eyes stopped as if fixated on the arrival of Jihan accompanied by Mama, Alya and other friends he did not know.
"Goddess...." The speech was drenched as a sense of admiration for Jihan's current beauty. More beautiful than usual.
But, it was immediately he tepis because he did not deserve to admire the beauty of a woman for too long because Jihan was not halal for him. Jihan is directed to sit on the left side of Pandu. Mama Jihan put a shawl over Jihan and Pandu's head. The two swallowed each other deeply.
Penghulu questions Pandu's readiness. Pandu nodded in response. Jihan lowered her head squeezing her sweaty hands. While Pandu, directed to shake the hand of Papa Jihan. And papa Jihan started reciting the ijab to marry her son.
"I marry you and I marry you Ananda Muhammad Pandu Pangestu Bin Almarhum Aji Pangestu with my son named Jihan Sajidah Salim with his dowry of money of Seventeen Million Twenty Twelve Thousand and set of paid prayer tools, cash."
Papa Jihan jerks Pandu's hand as a sign of Pandu's readiness to say kabul ijab.
"I accept her marriage and the marriage of Jihan Sajidah Salim Binti Ridwan Salim with her marriage of Seventeen Million Twenty Twenty Twenty Thousand and a set of paid prayer tools, cash."
"How the Witnesses.... Is that....?"
"Well!!" The cry of all who witness.
"Alhamdulillah hirobbil...."
Just one breath Pandu recites kabul ijab so loudly. Prayers are offered by the penghulu to ask for the prayer of salvation for 2 human beings who have just been halal in the eyes of religion and law. The taste filled the room. Eyes glazed as gratitude.
Pandu put on their wedding rings that Pandu has prepared in such detail. Beautiful circular diamond sparkle on the ring finger of Jihan. Jihan is like that too. She wears a wedding ring to Pandu's ring finger. Her tears just kept flowing. Now, Pandu holds his wife's crown while reciting a prayer in his heart.
"Allahumma inni as'aluka min khoirihaa wa khoirimaa jabaltahaa 'alaih. Wa a'udzubika min syarrihaa wa syarrimaa jabaltaha 'alaih."
Afterwards, with a slow movement Pandu held onto both of Jihan's cheeks and kissed Jihan's soft forehead. The murmur in Jihan's heart felt. Jihan receives her first kiss from Pandu. Jihan's face lowered and fell on Pandu's cornea. Pandu reviews the smile while still continuing to gently caress Jihan's cheeks. The guide pointed his hand in front of Jihan. Jihan realized what Pandu expected.
At the direction of the pengghulu sir, Jihan kissed her husband's hand for the first time. It was peaceful he felt. Many have captured their current poses. Jihan and Pandu also took some photos when they held the marriage book that KUA had given.
Pandu could not wait to get closer and hugged Jihan from the side while she smiled her sweet smile. Jihan who had been fighting with her heart could only follow Pandu.
Guests were unceasingly arriving. The weight and tightness of the clothes Jihan was wearing was very draining of her energy. Pandu who just came from Friday saw the condition of Jihan is quite alarming.
His hand was gently grasping Jihan's hand.
"We go inside first, Jihan! Take a break."
Jihan is no longer strong. Seeing the condition of Jihan who had begun to fall, Pandu quickly carried Jihan to bring her inside.
All panic. Calls to resuscitate Jihan sounded horrendous. The guide laid Jihan on the sofa.
"Sir, please let go of it!"
The MUA who decorated Jihan opened a sundanese siger on top of Jihan's head.
"Jihan...."
"Dam.... Son... wake up Honey...."
Mom and Alya looked panicked.
Pandu tried to calm down. He applied wind oil on both corners of Jihan's forehead, nape and slightly on Jihan's nose area. The eyes managed to move small.
"Remain...." Jihan's first call made all the panicked calm down.
Pandu stroking Jihan's cheeks.
"Yes, it's Jihan."
Jihan wanted to change her position to sit down. Pandu helps and he sits next to Jihan as Jihan's sandal. Warm water from Pandu's mother, Pandu grabbed and led Jihan to drink it.
"If you're not strong, you're here. Let's entertain the guests."
All nodded in agreement with the proposal of Pandu's mother.
All laughed amusedly at Jihan's confession. Jihan who is fit, began to return to pelaminan to follow the sundanese customary processions. And do not forget to also mingle with each other and introduce their family and friends.
"Alhamdulillah. After so many years, the brand can now be labeled halal."
Haha....
Laughing friends Pandu enliven. In this event, it is more attended by friends, friends and colleagues Pandu. Good attitude, polite and friendly do not deny Pandu many surrounded by good people. Jihan used to be amazed by the cool Pandu circle. Maybe if Alya doesn't exist, Jihan's life is completely empty.
"Haha.... My soul mate was written at my age that was almost three heads. How else to." Pungkas Pandu's.
"But I didn't expect to see Ndu. This bad girl is your soul mate."
A soft deliberate voice by Yogi was still heard in Jihan's ears. Jihan is upset and wants to throw a Yogi with a fork. However, Pandu stopped Jihan's actions. Yogi and the others saw Jihan's angry look and laughed.
...🍁~🍁...
Their sacred event had ended tiredly. After dinner with the extended family of the bride and groom, Pandu and Jihan enter Jihan's already decorated and decorated room so romantic. Red rose petals everywhere. Jihan and Pandu suddenly changed the atmosphere to be awkward.
"Hmm..... I... can you go into your room, Jihan?"
Dumb question Pandu try to lure him so as not to be too quiet.
"Hmm. yeah, go ahead, please." Jihan answered as she could.
Now, they really are just two in one room. They sat on the edge of the bed. Pretty long.
Actually, Jihan already feels itchy and sultry with the kebaya she wears. It's okay if he asks to clean himself first from Pandu.
"Guide, I. want to clean up first. It's so hot."
"Oh, yes. Please. This is your room. You are more worthy."
Step quickly Jihan picked up her clothes in the closet and her towel.
The abandoned guide, exhaling his breath. He scratched his un-itchy head.
'Why be a gini? It could be, Jihan thought that kind of.'
To get rid of the groggy in him, Pandu read 1 novel belonging to Jihan. I hope his wild thoughts disappear.
1 hour more Jihan just finished from her bathing ritual.
"Hm.... Pandu, I'm done. If you want to take a shower, I'm ready for warm water for you. Here's the towel."
Pandu got up and took the towel Jihan gave him.
Jihan immediately dried her wet hair. And use facial moisturizer to make it look fresher. He's confused. What to do when they are both in the room. His brain was always spinning thinking about it. And the bathroom door shifted signifying that Pandu was finished.
Their views meet. Pandu was surprised to see Jihan right in front of him. They froze for a moment. Pandu is fascinated to see the beautiful face of Jihan who has now become his wife. That hand wanted to caress Jihan's smooth face. However, he realized that he had ablution.
"Astaghfirullah. Sorry Jihan."
The confused Jihan only fell silent in awkwardness.
"We pray Isya first!" Pandu.
Jihan who heard Pandu's invitation, became confused and nervous. Prayer? Jihan has completely forgotten her reading and ordinance to perform her duties as a Muslim. Pandu saw jitters Jihan.
"Jihan... let's pray!" Pinta Pandu again.
Inevitably, Jihan admitted everything.
"Guide, I've forgotten how to pray."
Jihan's confession made Pandu surprised. In Pandu's mind, Jihan has been lying to him if Jihan says that she menstruates when she will always be invited to pray.
Pandu ruffled his waist and looked at Jihan fixedly who was currently looking down.
"So, you've been lying to me all along. Why Jihan? You can be honest. I can teach you."
"Sorry.. I'm ashamed of Pandu."
Pandu sighed with Jihan's reply.
"Sholat is obligatory Jihan."
Jihan knows that. But, the demon that had been inciting him was stronger than his faith."
"Yes, now I teach you to do ablution first. After that, you follow my prayer movement. Later, I told him the prayer reading and the correct procedure. Come on!!"
This is the first time Pandu has been a priest for Jihan. To lead and lead Jihan to the path of God. He realized, every human being has ever done wrong. But, there must still be a way that God gives for his people to repent to change the path that was originally bent to straight. Jihan just needs a push from him.
"Amen...." Prayer has led.
The guide turns the body facing Jihan. His hand he pointed in front of Jihan. Jihan kissed Pandu's hand and their smile was engraved. Jihan helplessly held her nervousness when Pandu kissed Jihan's soft forehead. Perhaps, this becomes a new habit Guide against him. But, it really made Jihan feel unusual. Pandu doesn't know how Jihan is feeling right now. Shy, happy and nervous.
"Can you still teach Jihan?"
"Hmm. Perhaps, many have forgotten the Guide. I never prayed and read the Quran again. After graduating from school, I attended the University of Amrik. There, I changed my life pattern. Wilder, misbehaving and forgetting my duty as a Muslim. I'm ashamed of you. I'm sorry Pandu, I got to take care of you and embarrass you too if people know I'm this sorry."
Pandu doesn't mind anything. As long as Jihan wanted to change and learn, she was able to lead Jihan even though it was a little difficult.
"I never felt repotted with you, Jihan. You are my responsibility now. We both learned!"
Jihan was pleased with Pandu's response. He promised to change the course of his life.
Finally, Jihan and Pandu were able to sleep. So long they chatted so that the awkwardness was gone. Until unconscious, their eyelids were both exhausted and fell asleep in 1 blanket but were blocked by the bolster in their midst.
