"Darling!" said Haykal, while holding tightly Kanaya's hand. Seen the look on Haykal's face that was not willing to let go of Kanaya.
For almost three hours, Kanaya and Haykal were both in the car. The trip to the Kanaya boarding school takes almost a quarter of a day. Pesantren located outside the city, more precisely in a small town that is still beautiful. Not too many magnificent buildings, not even a mall. There are only small shops lined up. The traditional market is the only place for transactions in the city. Small city that deliberately selected Dewun, a city far from the crowd. All for the sake of the tranquility of his daughter Kanaya. But this pesantren is not an ordinary pesantren. Most of the alumni of the pesantren, get scholarships abroad.
"What else is it, brother? I've arrived at the boarding school. I have complied with Brother's request. Now, why did you take me off so hard!" kanaya said softly, Kanaya leaned her body into the car seat. Kanaya stared outside, she felt heavy leaving Haykal. Had Haykal taken it off heavily.
"Why do you have to go so far as to learn? Can't we meet, at least once a week!"
"The more often we meet, the greater our chance of dissolving in a momentary napkin. Sorry, until this moment the dark shadow still scares me. But when this heart is not completely sure, until that second I will remain like this!" kanaya said softly, Haykal shook his head weakly. Haykal pulled Kanaya's hand, gently kissing Kanaya's hand.
"Dear, I'm sorry!" haykal said softly, Kanaya was silent.
"Didn't my sister know everything. Brother Rafan has told me, my dark time. The reason I hate the good looks of men who always make the eyes of women captivated. Something that seems to be the pride of the people of Adam. Utilizing the sincerity and innocence of a woman!"
"Darling, I'm not like that. I'm sorry if my words made you think of that night. What a darling, I'm sorry!" said Haykal, while holding tightly Kanaya's hand. As Kanaya nodded, Kanaya let go of Haykal's hand. Kanaya opened Haykal's car door.
"A woman is like a rock standing by the sea. No matter how big the waves hit it. Will not fall coral just like that. But without realizing it, in a sturdy coral stored an empty cavity that is ready to make it collapse. I fortified myself cold and hard. But deep inside my heart, there was a great trauma that was able to knock me down. Trauma you never imagined before. The fear of the dark and cold night, which seemed to freeze my body. Uncomfortable, when my skin touched a man's hand. A touch that always reminds me of that night. The real reason I'm in this pesantren. Stay away from fear, seek the meaning of calm and sincerity that I have been avoiding!"
"Dear, I'm sorry!"
"Sister, I honestly haven't fully believed your race in me. Not because that night I saw you with Aunt Aira. But the experience that happened to me. Makes me not easy to believe, even though I realize my brother is sincere to me. But there's one thing I'll convince you. Although my heart does not believe in you yet, but my heart believes in His decree. If you are the priest who is appointed to lead me. Although my soul hesitates to unite with you, but my soul is sure of His decision. If you're the owner of my ribs. Kanaya Fauziah Abimata fully accepts you, because your presence is not a coincidence. Except for His ordinance which I will believe with all my heart!" kanaya said, then pulled Haykal's hand. Kanaya kissed softly the back of Haykal's hand.
Haykal was silent, no words could be spoken. Kanaya's words were sharp, but they healed her wounded heart. Kanaya's words are like a sharp knife, but also a sedative. Really Haykal did not understand, he felt pain and healed at about the same time. Long Haykal pensive, until finally Haykal realized. When Kanaya got out of her car.
"Dear, thank you!" sahut Haykal said, Kanaya blinked her two beautiful eyes.
"Let's learn to understand each other. Make this distance a unifying medium. Not the reason that disbelief is between us!" kanaya said, Haykal nodded slowly. Haykal stared at Kanaya's back away from her car.
Haykal is not allowed to go down. Because Haykal is in the princess boarding school. It means that there is only princess santri and not the place where a man is in this area. Haykal could only stare at Kanaya's back. The last warm look for the next year.
"You're making me lose my mind!" batin Haykal couldn't believe it. Haykal's smile and head. It signifies how much Kanaya changed Haykal's world.
Kanaya walked towards the Dew that was not far from her. Abra and Dewun brought their own car. Haykal and Kanaya were in the same car. The dew embraces Kanaya, both of whom walk towards the main gate towards the princess boarding school. But his second step stopped, when a voice called out to Kanaya. Dew and Kanaya turned their heads, looking at a middle-aged woman approaching. Kanaya immediately bowed, Dew smiled full of warmth.
"How are the dews? Long time no see you!" greeting Umi Halimah, greeting the former student Dewun.
"God be healthy, how are you Umi?" sahut Dewun, shortly after kissing the back of Umi Halimah's hand. Dewun and Kanaya took turns greeting Umi Halimah. The wife of the owner of the pesantren where Kanaya and Embun had studied.
"I'm doing fine. My body is just so old. No longer able to do anything heavy. It's time I had a daughter-in-law, but I don't know when I can get her married?" said Umi Halimah softly, Dew nodded slowly. Neither Dewun nor Kanaya lowered her head. The usual courtesy attitude shown to Umi Halimah.
"I hope it's like that Dew. I still remember when he was a kid. He's always following you, don't you know now does he still want to follow you?" said Umi Halimah, Dewun shook his head while smiling.
"Umi, none of that is possible. He is an adult, a pesantren manager as well as a famous and smart ustad. It will not be me that he will follow, but his steps will be followed by his mother!" said Dew lirih, Umi Halimah nodded.
"If only your daughter would be willing to be my daughter-in-law. Of course I'll be happy, can be different with you!" said Umi Halimah relaxed, Kanaya immediately looked up. He felt disbelief. His heartbeat seemed to stop, the words of Umi Halimah were able to undermine his belief in Haykal.
"Umi, my daughter does not deserve to accompany him. Our family does not deserve to be confused with Umi Halimah. But believe Umu, someday he will find the most appropriate understanding. The afterlife world that is able to follow its steps. Understand the religion that is compatible with him!"
"Look at the Dew, we've been talking about it since. Now he's walking here!" umi Halimah said happily.
Deg
Kanaya's heart stopped beating. He saw a young man who was much older than him. Ustad the idol who drugged the eyes of the princess santri. Kanaya glanced over without raising her head. Kanaya never looked at men diving in the pesantren. Kanaya always kept her eyes on him. All for the sake of purity his relationship with Haykal.
"Assalammualaikum sis Dewun!"
"Waalaikumsalam ustad Abdul Rizal Saputra!" sahut Dew loudly, Rizal smiled knot. He looked towards Kanaya.
"Mama, Kanaya's in the dorm!" pamit Kanaya, then kiss the back of Dewun's and Umi Halimah's hands.
"Your daughter is not only beautiful in face, but her heart is also very beautiful!" rizal said softly, Dewun just smiled to say the word Dewun.
"Is it time for ustad to find a companion?" said Dew flat.
"Didn't Umi just propose to a woman for me. But it seems like big brother refused emphatically the application of umi!"
"I mean Ustad Rizal!"
"Forget it, there will be plenty of time to say it!" sahut Rizal relaxed, then walked away. Rizal left a tremendous anxiety in the heart of Dewun.
"I hope this is just a joke, not something Umi Halimah and her family really want to do. If this joke is serious, what answer would I say? I need the rejection to come from my lips. Rejection that would hurt my teacher!" the Dew Dewang.
"Grow it, you can understand it yourself. Rizal's word is a joke or seriousness!" umi Halimah lirih.
"Yes Umi!" sahut Dew brief.
