After the arrsyad course was completed, Arrsyad decided to go to see professor John to ask permission for five days that he would not enter the campus because he would return to Indonesia.

"Hopefully the reason I made is acceptable." Inner arrsyad.

Up at the front door of the directorate, Arrsyad exhaled slowly. Arrsyad knocked on the door and was told to go in.

The open door saw a middle-aged man wearing a neat suit with all black color not to forget the sunglasses perched in both eyes, his age was about fifty-nine years, her hair was already bleached with her front part already bald.

Arrsyad bowed his body as a sign of respect.

"Good afteroon professor."

"Yes, have a seat."

Arrshad placed himself before the professor John. His tall body looked very upright and gallant.

"Is there anything you want to tell me."

"Yes, it's about me asking permission not to go to college first."

Professor John smiled at the arrsyad, he stared fixedly at one of his very clever students.

"It is fitting that the students here often talk about this young man, it turns out that he is very handsome. Besides being handsome he's very smart." Inner professor john

"Your name is arrsyad."

" Yes, I am arrsyad a student from Indonesia."

"Why do you want to go home, I want to hear a clear reason for this."

Arrsyad again exhaled slowly, he really hoped that professor John could give him permission for a few days so that he could go home first to Indonesia before the scholarship exam began.

“I beg you, give me permission for five days to return to Indonesia. I have a personal problem that I have to solve on my own."

"Personal issues, apparently." Professor john's murmured.

"Okay, I'll let you go home."

Arrsyad who heard that immediately smiled widely, arrsyad stood up from his seat he immediately bent his body.

"Thank you very much."

"Yes, I hope your problem is resolved quickly."

Arrsyad smiled and said goodbye to go home. Professor john just nodded and stared at the departure of the arrsyad.

After coming out of the professor's room, Arrsyad was relieved and happy because arrsyad could go home to Indonesia for five days, with his head lowered arrsyad smiled small.

Walking towards the campus gate, arrsyad stood at the bus stop, it did not take long for the bus to come, arrsyad went straight inside and sat himself in the back seat.

Arrsyad took the phone in his jacket pocket, he intended to book a plane ticket, arrsyad chose a morning flight schedule to arrive faster.

"Look at Reno I'll give you all a surprise." Inner arrsyad.

The House of Kiai Husen

At home kiai husen is now a lot of people to help prepare a banquet for the study later tonight, this study event is specifically for azwar and zhivana. The mothers have been splashing in the kitchen to make various kinds of food. There are many ingredients to cook, complete spices are available with various kinds, the neighbors kiai husen and santri women have helped.

Umi Aisyah is now in a scene of her own, how not she is very worried there is less for the event later tonight, umi aisyah who planned this all kiai husen as a husband is certainly very supportive of his wife. Although draining the contents of the wallet but it's okay this is all good intentions, especially this study event is also for azwar and zhivana.

The mothers are partly in the kitchen to cook, partly in the middle of the room to cut or process spices, while the princess who is only about eight people, the, helps to wrap ready food into clear plastic crates for later sharing.

Meanwhile kiai husen, azwar and fazal were sitting relaxing on the balcony of the azwar room, to avoid the excitement of the mothers down there. The wind blew on the three of them, feeling cool and fresh. Kiai husen sat cross-legged in front of fazal while azwar sat on the side of kiai husen. Fifteen minutes ago they were sitting together on the balcony terrace.

Fazal looked at the older brother and then smiled sweetly, azwar who saw his younger brother smiling at him returned a fazal smile.

"So I still can't believe you're getting married soon" Fazal said.

"Your brother is very mature so he must get married soon, so he has to take care of himself"

Kiai husen rubbed the black peci-covered fazal head, kiai husen tau fazal loved his brother very much, he was very lucky to have two sons who loved each other.

"Well fazal you have to be like your brother he is very obedient to his orders alloh, smart and very responsible.your brother is very dear to abi and umi"

Azwar smiled wryly as his abi said like. His heart felt sliced, he was reminded of the disease he was now feeling. Azwar often felt pain but he could only endure it.

Fazal looked at his brother and smiled back.

"So when you get married, don't forget you always have to give me extra lessons so I can keep up with your intelligence"

"Of course I'm your brother I will always guide and teach you until anytime"

Kiai husen stared at azwar. He felt strange with his eldest son since coming home from cairo azwar was getting thinner, azwar's face also often looks pale even now azwar often out of the house either go where kiai husen himself has asked azwar. Azwar always said he had business.

"Azwar" Call kiai husen, his face looks very worried.

"Yes, what's wrong bi"

"Why does Abi feel that you're hiding something from all of us, please talk to me so scared something's going on with you"

Azwar smiled then grabbed his abi right hand for azwar to clasp.

"Trust me I'm fine, abi don't have to worry like that. The proof is now that I'm healthy and still in front of abi"

Kiai Husen felt azwar's hands cold and tremble, he stared fixedly at azwar's face he was sure something had happened to azwar, but azwar hid his.

Every day this worry is getting bigger, haunting the mind of kiai husen, for some reason he feels azwar more and more other days, like not the azwar that used to be, which is full of spirit and always energetic.

"So you're okay, right." Tanya Fazal who was also worried about her brother's current change.

Azwar just nodded at fazal. Azwar doesn't want everyone to worry about him.

"God willing, abi prayer may azwar always be proclaimed health by allah swt" said Azwar with a gentle smile at kiai husen.

"Surely, son."

They also talked about religious lessons and pesantren. Occasionally there is a sound of laughter from the fazal because on the sidelines of his lecture the abi is always a funny thing.

United States

In front of the towering apartment building, arrsyad and Adzril were sitting in a chair with a large round table, chatting in the company of a glass of hot chocolate with the smoke still billowing into the air, very cold air makes arrsyad and Adzril using a thick coat jacket, as breezy as the wind that hit the surface of the skin of the face arrsyad makes his lips pale as well as adzril.

Arrsyad sipped the hot chocolate without blowing it first, two sips felt enough arrsyad to put the glass back on the table. There was a clear sound of a four-wheeled car engine across the street, the lights that glowed in every area of the road seemed to shine brightly, people who live in the same apartment with arrsyad are still seen passing around him.

"America is cold" said the cold-hearted Adzril.

Adzril cupped his hands together, he blew his hands so that his body felt warm even though the knit hand T-shirts that Adzril used were quite thick. But the cold tonight is so stinging to the bone.

"My bones could freeze."

Arrsyad who heard the babble from his friend just smiled a little. Already knew the air in America was cold but Adzril instead forced arrsyad to chat outside the building.

"You're the one who jumped in here"

Arrsyad folded his hands in front of his chest, a handsome face with white skin, not to forget also thick eyebrows and a sharp nose that arrsyad had looked very charming at night. The pitch-black hair was blown by the wind as if it was being frenzied by the wind that blew along.

"I know it, but in there I'm so bored."

Adzril leaned his body on the chair with his head held upwards.

"Tomorrow I'll go home first"

"Where does that mean?"

"Australia"

Adzril confirmed his sitting position to be firm again, he squinted his eyes at arrsyad he felt not believe that arrsyad would return to Indonesia.

"Seriously, you'll be home tomorrow."

Arrsyad.

"You've talked to the college."

"Udah was noon."

"Why do we have to go home, not soon there will be a special scholarship test for smart students."

Arrsyad exhaled, then looked at Alzril who was looking at him with an intimidating look.

"You ruined people's marriages" said the arrsyad.

Adzril who heard that immediately rounded his eyes as if he did not believe the words he had just heard.

"I cry at the thought of how cruel you are to me"

Arrsyad who heard Adzril singing like that immediately scrunched his forehead, because it was strange with the attitude of Adzril.

"Why sing a song, is that?"

" Yes, I suddenly thought of the wife's heart-wrenching movie. My mother likes to watch, so every time I go to the living room I hear that song" said Adzril innocently.

"Then why are you singing that song in front of me?"

"And you are the actor, yes automatically the song is suitable for the victim later"

"You believe that I would do something like that."

Adzril thought for a moment to think about the words of the arrsyad earlier. It is also true where it is possible for arrsyad to do such a foolish thing. Adzril looked at the arrsyad back, then shook his head.

"How could you do such a stupid thing"

Arrsyad rolled his eyes lazy, according to arrsyad Adzril it was just a thought too ridiculous, where maybe he did such a lowly thing to get someone who already belonged to someone else.

"When are you going home, what's the problem?"

"Hem"

"What problem."

"It's too personal, you know I'm the one, how."

Adzril just nodded, he understood the meaning of arrsyad how, all this time also arrsyad not too much to tell about himself to Adzril.

"Let's have your problems quick, done."

"Thank you."

Silent

They were silent with each other's thoughts, Adzril took a glass containing chocolate that had been hot now had become cold, Adzril gulped it until it was not left, then put the empty glass back on the table.

The night is getting late, the wind is blowing faster making the night air cooler. Arrsyad already felt himself sleepy, even the arrsyad had yawned several times indicating that his body had to rest immediately.

"We'd better get inside." Said Adzril who saw arrsyad had yawned because of drowsiness.

"All right"

Arrsyad got up from his seat, he went straight into the apartment followed by Adzril from behind.
