Destiny Syakila

eps 32's

Arriving at the Club, Halim could see clearly Denis and Samnia were standing outside the Club. Looking left and right is like looking for something.

"They must be looking for me and have been waiting for me for a long time" he murmured.

He hastened his pace towards the two teenagers.

"Abang, where have you been? Denis was looking for and waiting for you here." Denis complained upsetly.

"Oh sorry, Brother was walking around here until he forgot the time" Halim told a lie. "You guys done talking?" he asked while looking at Denis and Samnia alternately.

They both nodded. "Then we go home now" said Halim again.

"Hum," Denis and Samnia said.

"Then, what are you riding Samnia?" ask Halim to Samnia.

"I brought my own bike, brother!" Samnia replied with a sweet smile while showing the key of the bike.

"Oh, then go home! We will also be home soon." said Halim.

Samnia nodded. "Hum, Samnia first yeah." said. He turned on the motor and ran it. Halim and Denis are waiting for a taxi.

"Taxi!"

Denis stopped a taxi that happened to pass there. The taxi stopped, Halim and Denis got into the car. After Denis mentions his destination, the driver runs a car to drive them home.

"What, did Samnia not expect from me anymore?" ask Halim. He did not want the silence to linger along with their journey.

"Hum, he didn't believe it at first, but I convinced him." Denis said.

"Then have you expressed your feelings for her? Did he accept you?" Halim asked again while glancing at Denis then went back to see the city streets they passed.

Denis rested his back on the back of the car seat, "Hum," he said, "We go first, if in a month there is no match between us, then there is no reason for us to stay. We'll take the road ourselves."

"And you agree with what he said?"

Denis excitedly said to Halim, "Oh, yes dong! And I'm sure I can conquer his heart even before a month" he said confidently.

"Are you sure you can do that?" Halim asked dismissively.

"Abang, let Denis be like this, but don't underestimate dong! Especially about women." said Denis with a high level of confidence.

"really? Then who said I have a girlfriend, you know? And in fact, when you see other girls even want to be made a girlfriend. Where is your girlfriend then? And again, just approach and express your feelings should use someone's help." Halim spoke softly and dropped Denis' confidence without looking at him, whereas he knew that Denis was already staring at him full of annoyance.

"Ah, Brother! It could have destroyed someone's confidence level." Denis said with annoyance, "We should go down now, Denis lazy to talk to, Brother." he continued saying when the taxi had stopped in front of the house.

This time it was Denis who paid for the taxi and they immediately got off after thanking the driver.

"Alright, don't try talking to Brother! Let alone discussing women." said Halim threatening Denis while stepping into the house, after he opened the key.

"Well, Bang! Don't dong! Denis was just kidding." Denis glued to Halim.

Halim did not realize he just continued to step into his room while shrugging his shoulders.

"What time did you take my words seriously? Ah no! Brother is not that kind of person." murmured Denis while looking at Halim's back that had disappeared behind the door. He went to his room to rest.

Arriving in their respective rooms, Halim and Denis instead went straight to sleep, but they returned to recall the events they had just experienced.

Denis remembers his association with Samnia. And Halim had her meeting with Halima.

"What does Halima mean?" Halim seemed to be thinking. "He wants me to help him? In what way?"

"Why did he say he wasn't like that? What have I seen, and his appearance says something different?"

"It seems like he harbors so much sadness? Was the woman who bumped into me that night really her?"

"Oh my God, if it is your will, I will follow what my heart says. But protect this servant of yours, from deeds that will harm myself in the future. Aamiin's."

For a long time he spoke to himself, asking his mind to think. While Denis he had fallen asleep after fantasizing Samnia, a woman who had just been in his girlfriend a few hours ago.

"Why am I so nervous tonight to think of him? Is she okay after I leave her there?" Halim still hasn't stopped thinking about Halima.

"Do I have to go back and check on him there? But it's very late. And what if my wife's family sees me with a woman at night, without my knowledge. It's gonna be a big deal later."

Since Halim was restless unable to sleep, she went briefly to the balcony of her room. Long time there but did not make his anxiety disappear. He went back into his room.

Halim takes ablution water and performs tahajud prayers asking for guidance to the Khaliq. After he finished teaching for a while and after his feelings were calm then he went to sleep.

.. ..

"Astaghfiullah! Why can I dream like this?"

"This dream is so real! Mas Halim's. Ah No! I know Halim, he loves me a lot."

"Astaghfiullah! O God, far from my thoughts prejudice my husband, mas Halim who is now wandering to make a living for me and his son. Aamiin's."

"But, could it? We haven't seen each other in months, will we? This dream, is it a clue, or is it just a dream to mess with my mind?"

"Oh Allah, though I do not wish to be so bad, but the thought just popped out without any excuse in my head. If only we were close together, I wouldn't be this hesitant. I'm just a weak and helpless woman."

Sarmi spoke to himself to calm his heart and mind. By forcing himself back to sleep, he finally fell asleep.

.. ..

Syakila woke up earlier than her mother, grandmother, and sister. He went outside to breathe fresh air in the morning.

"The air here is very cool in the morning, it feels like always staying in the garden." murmured Syakila with a small smile.

"Today is Sunday, usually if there is Sardin's foot, he comes to me at home every afternoon. Why do I miss you, Dad?"

"Will my sister always remember me? Of course he would remember once in a while. There she must have had more friends, so there was no time to think about me."

Syakila felt the necklace around her neck, "This necklace, will forever remain attached to my neck. I've made a promise to you, only you'll take this necklace off my neck."

Without Syakila realizing it, her mother had woken up and was now standing behind Syakila. And Syakila was unaware of her mother's presence, if her mother did not greet her.

"Syakila, what are you thinking? Why sit on the ground? And there's a gode-code."

Shakila was surprised and looked back. He spoke his mother's words. "Mama, Syakila was exhausted from breathing fresh air while light exercise taught in school. Asya is tired so Asya is sitting here" he explained.

"Oh, so. Then what are you thinking? You heard about necklaces, what necklaces are they?" Sarmi deliberately wants to be close to Syakila. And try to sit side by side and invite Syakila to talk.

"Asha is not thinking about anything, Mah." Syakila said. He showed the necklace around his neck to his mother, "This is the necklace that Sardin gave him before he left for the city of S, Mah." he continued.

"Mama, Asya went to take a shower first" he said goodbye. Sarmi nodded.

This kid, he doesn't want to share with anyone about his feelings. He always kept his own feelings. I was worried what if one day he would feel tired with his attitude.

inner Sarmi while looking at Syakila's back that is away.

Before Syakila took a bath, she lit a fire to boil hot water. Then he went to bathe in a small river in his garden, a river made by his father.

After the bath, Syakila went to see the water that was boiled.

"Eh, the hot water?" Syakila was surprised because her hot water pot had already turned into a small pot. Syakila opened the lid of the pancake. "It's a sweet potato and a banana, what's your mama drawing hot water on, yeah? And boil this." Syakila asked herself.

He looked left, right, and behind looking for his mother. But there's no. But Syakila did not look for him at home. He sat waiting for the stew to cook. He was afraid that the cooking would be scorched, because the water was only a little.

A few minutes later, the cooking was cooked as well. Syakila lifted it and separated the burning wood. New Syakila put out the fire in the wood and let the wood charcoal stay smoky. Only then did he go up to the house to wake his sister still asleep.

"Mama's not home either? Where's mom? Oh maybe mama's picking vegetables at the end of the garden." murmured little Syakila.

Syakila gently woke her sister one by one and told them to take a bath. He prepared the clothes of his brothers.

"Syakila, where's your mama?" Syakila was shocked to hear the voice of the man at the door. As well as Grandma, she woke up.

"Om" said Syakila. "Om looking for mama? Wait for Mama in gode. Mom will be here soon." Syakila said.

"Where's your mom going?" the Grandma and Anton asked at the same time.

"Syakila doesn't know either, Grandma, Om. But Syakila thought maybe mama was picking vegetables at the end of the garden." replied Syakila.

"Oh, then Om wait for mama in the gode." said Anton. He immediately went to the gods to wait for Sarmi.

"Syakila, make me some tea. Grandma looked for your mama in the garden." said Grandma saying goodbye.

"Yes Nek. Syakila made her tea on the kettle, Nek. Make it with us."

"Yes." said the Grandma. Then grandma went down and went around the garden looking for Sarmi. While Syakila he was making tea in a kettle and also scooping bananas and sweet potatoes cooked by his mother.

When Syakila was ready, she took him to Gode. He poured a glass of tea on Anton.

"Om, in drinking tea and this is a banana stew as well as sweet potatoes" said Syakila while offering tea and dishes containing bananas and yams.

"Hum, thanks Syakila" said Anton sincerely then he took the banana stew that is still warm. He peeled and ate it.
