Arka has arrived in Indonesia, he immediately landed in Surabaya. Nisa, who is already impatient with the arrival of her son, is waiting to pick up at the airport with Ijah as well as Rani, her domestic assistant.

Arka came with 2 suitcases and 1 carrying bag. Arka walked to find her mother who had promised to pick her up at the airport.

"Arka.." cried Nisa as she waved her hand so happy to see her son coming.

"Ibuuu." said Arka as she ran to her mother and hugged and kissed her hand

"Arka misses Mom very much." continued Arka said in his mother's arms

"Mother also son. hus already, embarrassed many who see, later said people are already single still glendotan with his mother." said Nisa with a little laugh

"Nothing ma'am, Arka is very dear to Mother." said Arka innocently

Nisa just stroked her son's hair, which was starting to look long, just like her late father did in college.

Nisa keeps looking at her son's face, growing up, Arka's face is more and more similar to her late husband. Makes Nisa miss her late husband even more.

"Let's go home, you must be tired?" nisa said to Arka while holding her son's tanga

"Yes Ma'am, Arka is very hungry, Arka longs for Mother's cooking." replied Arka to Nisa

"Bu Annisa has cooked a special meal for Den Arka." said Rani, the house assistant who helped carry the Arka suitcase

Arka was so happy to hear all that. Nisa's private car is ready, with the driver driving it. Arriving at home Arka directly devoured the food served on the dining table, all the food is favorite food Arka.

Say hello morning, this is the first morning of Arka in Surabaya. Arka who had taken a bath and changed clothes immediately approached Nisa, her mother who was sitting in the backyard of the house while reading books.

"Good morning my motheruu." said Arka spoiledly to Nisa, hugging her mother's body from behind and then kissed the cheek of her mother who did not use the veil.

"Good morning to her bachelor mother." said Nisa returned the greeting of her son

Arka sat down next to Nisa.

"Oh yes Ma'am, today before going to the office I want to go to Dad's grave, after that to the orphanage and foundation, just to the office. What's your schedule today?" said Arka to Nisa

"Today there's no important event, I'll just come with you.. Let me accompany yaaa" replied Nisa to Arka

Arka nodded in understanding.

"Oh yes after a week here, we go to Ponpes yuu Bu, Tengokin Granny.. Then after our grandmother went to Oma in Malaysia, how?" said Arka to take her mother

"May, I'll just come with you.. This week sort out all the important files in the office first then." replied Nisa

"Okay, ma'am." replied Arka understood

Nisa and Arka then walk to the dinner table for breakfast. Breakfast is still prepared by Ijah.

"Oh yeah how's your relationship with Aira? No problem, right? " said Nisa suddenly asking about Aira

Arka was still silent he had not opened his mouth to answer his mother's question.

"We are not in contact with each other.. There is no problem either" replied Arka quickly

"Oh good then.. You are wrong to be in touch with Aira. She is still the wife of others, the marriage in the Islamic Shari'a that we profess is different from those of western culture, naaak." said Nisa at length

"Yes Ma'am, Arka understands." replied Arka briefly

"Udah ya Ma'am, don't talk about Aira anymore, I'm trying to forget it" Arka continued

Nisa looked at Arka with a seductive look, instead marking her son's Ark.

"ciiie Mom's son is now getting older." said Nisa teasing Arka

"Ih Mother nihhh." replied the spoiled Arka

******

Nisa with an all-black dress, and sunglasses that increasingly cover her eyes to make others invisible. The arka also comes with a long-sleeved black shirt rolled up, and gray pants, as well as black glasses so handsome look.

Nisa and Arka recited prayers over the tomb of Alfath, taught, and then sowed flowers on it.

"Dad, this is Arka and Mother coming." said Arka with a voice that sounded soft

"May Dad be in the most beautiful place.. Hopefully we can regroup in Heaven God together." continued Arka said while stroking Nisan named his father.

Nisa, who had always come to the tomb of Alfath, was no longer able to speak. Surely her tears were dripping, and sobs were inevitable.

The sun was getting higher, Arka and Nisa immediately drove a car driven by Arka to the Orphanage of the relics of the Alfath.

There all the caretakers welcome Arka and Nisa. Arka looking around to all the rooms, first he visited the room filled by the elderly, Arka was greeted with excitement by the elderly who now only live 5 people only.

Then Arka and Nisa visit the children's room, where there are some babies who are crying and being replaced by diapers by women with veiled with light purple dress that looks so graceful.

"Why crying? Do you want milk?" nisa said then helped carry the other baby

"Are you hungry?" said Arka while holding the baby next to Nisa

The veiled woman immediately fell silent. He was so shocked by the arrival of Arka, the face of Arka who was so similar to Alfath, the person he knew, the person he considered as his guardian angel was alive again.

Nisa threw her sweet smile, she saw Khadija, the veiled woman was silent for a moment.

"Why Khadijah? Shocked yaaa." said Nisa while swinging the crying baby to sleep it.

"Yeah.. Ma'am." replied Khadijah stiffly

"This is my son's Ark, his son Mas Alfath." said Nisa introduced Arka

Khadijah immediately clenched his hand to shake hands with Arka.

"I am Khadijah." said Khadijah to introduce himself

"I am Arka." replied Arka quickly fixed while holding the baby

"This Khadijah used to live here.. When I was pregnant with you, Khadijah was born. He's a twin, a twin boy named Joseph, who now works in our office.. And this Khadijah teaching in MA also helped take care of this home" Nisa told Arka

"Oh so.." answered Arka briefly

"Yes dear." said Nisa to Arka

"Oh yes, why are you surprised by the arrival of Arka? This arka is rarely here because he is studying and living in England with his late father's family" Nisa told Khadijah

"Hehe Iya Bu, it is fitting that Khadija never knew Den Arka this.. Shocked his face is very similar to the late Mr. Alfath, Khadija thought good angels live again hehe" replied Khadijah innocently

"Your God is there." answered Nisa to Khadijah

"Don't call me Den, just call me Arka ya." Arka told Khadijah

Khadijah nodded in understanding.

*****

The day is getting late, Arka and Nisa go straight to the office because everyone is waiting there. On the way Nisa unceasingly told about Khadijah and Joseph.

"Khadija was smart, he got a scholarship from his campus, he was also a hafidz Qur'an loh kaa." Nisa told Arka

"Waah great dong yaa." replied Arka trying to respond to his mother

"Yes, son, may your soul mate also be good like that, yes." said Nisa expressed her hope

"Aamiin.." said Arka while shocked to hear his mother's words
