DESTINY LOVE KHADIJAH

CHAPTER 4. DARUL QUR'AN'S PESANTREN

...Maybe Not Today. But One Day...

...☘️...

Still in a serious mood Khadijah talks with Umi Amina. Both seem serious.

"Sir"

"There are some messages from Abah that Umi wants to convey to you Colonized"

I don't know what Umi Amina wants to say, which is clear Khadija is very ready to listen to her.

“Now you have nobody, and Dija's guardian is now Abah"

Hearing the words of Umi Amina, Khadijah then nodded his head. Because all the words of the middle-aged woman beside him were true.

"Change wants Dija to stay happy”

“Alba advised Umi, so that Dija stay in the boarding house with us”

Dija fondled the words of Umi Amina, there is also a point in what Umi Amina said, in addition to Dija who will not be lonely when in Pesantren, Khadija can also re-deepen her religious knowledge. ‘thinks Khadijah’.

“But you consider it first, Abah and Umi ndak force”

Abah and Umi Amina certainly do not want to force. Khadijah himself had also matured in the view of Umi Amina and Abah Hasim, and both did not want Khadijah to feel compelled to the proposal of Abah and Umi before, of course the decision was fully handed over to Khadijah.

Still thinking about Umi Amina's earlier remark, Khadijah tried to take the good side of Abah and his Umi solicitation.

Of course, all of them have been on careful consideration and for the good of Khadijah as well. Khadijah himself did not want to make Abah and Umi long wait for a decision from him.

After all, final students such as Khadijah, there are not many lectures except practicums, and thesis consuls only. During a pandemic like this, college is also more online.

“Good Umi, God willing Dija follow Umi and Abi course”

The corner of Khadijah's lips was raised up. Khadija was quite sure of his words.

For things like this indeed Khadijah did not take long to think, because of course the advice of parents is for the good of himself.

“Alright, then you prepare all your needs and goods yes Nduk, later or tomorrow Abah will pick us” said Umi Amina

Khadijah then nodded his head, whatever the decision of Abah and Umi, Khadija according to him.

After enough talking with Umi Amina, Khadijah and the Umi then breakfast together, enjoying simple cuisine hand-made Khadijah.

“You're good at cooking Nduk” Praise Umi Amina

Khadijah blushed at the praise from Umi Amina. Honestly, Khadija himself is not so confident in the taste of his cooking.

7 Days of living together, maybe this is the first time Umi Amina tasted Khadijah cuisine. It was not without reason, it was just that the previous days of another brother Khadijah were preparing food for them.

Breakfast was over, and there were no other activities at home. While some course assignments have been waiting for Khadijah.

On the terrace of the house. Khadijah started by opening his laptop. Check some of the emails that are in his email account. Sure enough there are many incoming emails, one of them from the company where his father worked.

Email that Khadijah rarely get other than for reasons of scholarships that he registered with the company where his father used to work.

Khadijah was a little curious about the email. An email sent two days ago.

‘Tumbens. What is the content of his’ thought Khadijah

Although it is at the bottom, but Khadijah chose to open the email first, rather than a new email on it.

File sheet emblazoned real, letterhead that clearly shows the company where the late Father used to work. Jeli Khadijah eyes read every word listed there.

Deg.

Khadijah's heart and mind seemed unable to believe what he had just seen and read.

‘Pause Subsidy Education’ Inner Khadijah

Not yet Khadijah forgot the sadness because of the departure of his parents, now Khadijah again must face the real reality in his life.

Clear liquid immediately pooled in the beautiful eye pelupuk Khadijah, ‘Pemberantian Subsidy Pendidi’ that means Khadijah will no longer get a scholarship for his education.

Given the cost of education that is not cheap, it really makes Khadija confused for a moment. While there are still two semesters left, ‘think Khadijah’.

If you have to go to college while working also feels impossible for Khadijah, the article of the lecture and the final task is very time-consuming.

Tired of struggling with his thoughts, Khadijah chose to resign.

Khadijah believes if the difficulties he is facing at this time of course God has also prepared a solution.

Khadijah clearly remembers the advice of his father and mother, Tawakal (surrender), something that has always been taught by both, a belief and a handle on living life.

وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ

“As well as whoever trusts in Allah, then He is the One Who Adequates” (QS. Top-Thalaq: 3).

“Nduk, you why”

Seeing Khadijah who was pensive in his daydream, Umi Amina then approached and asked.

Khadijah also only raised the corner of his lips, honestly he was confused, but Khadijah could what God had determined his way of life. Until only a smile was able to give Khadijah to Umi Amina.

“Scholarship Dija Umi”

Umi Amina seemed to link her eyebrows together, not yet understood the direction of Khadijah's conversation.

Several times Khadijah tried to control himself, and after being calm enough Khadijah began to talk to Umi Amina again.

“Dija is no longer getting scholarships from the office of Bapak”

Umi Amina slowly exhaled, Umi understood what her niece was feeling.

“You are patient Yes Nduk, Later we talk to Abah mu”

Realizing that no one but Abah and Umi would be regents at this time, Khadijah chose to obey both.

Khadijah was resigned if in the end he could not continue his lecture.

While Umi who could not make his own decision, chose to discuss the matter of Khadijah with Abah.

“You are ready now yo Nduk, Abah want to pick us up now”

Not wanting to continue to dissolve in his sadness, Khadijah then closed his laptop back, and chose to hurry to prepare the remaining items that were still left in his house, and then he was forced to leave his home, because Khadijah's other items are in Kos Malang's house.

Before Khadijah would leave this house, Khadijah was eager to keep the memory of every corner so many memories of him with his late parents.

Many memories that certainly can not just be forgotten khadijah, especially about this house. The house of his parents' deceased parents.

When will Khadijah take it back, maybe another year, five or even ten years ?. 'Stop'.

Khadijah only hopes that one day he will bring back his childhood memories with his own family in this house.
