“The brother is a prospective doctor, it looks like he can help later.” Sahut.
“Oh good then.” Say the doctor with a smile.
“Thank you very much doc.” Mother and Father thanked the doctors before leaving.

Mother assisted Salma was busy in the kitchen preparing dishes for the holiday. Especially because of yesterday's events, some cakes planned to be made must be done now.
After a few hours in the kitchen, ketupat dishes are ready to be served. They tried it at once for lunch.
After lunch.
“This sister, please deliver to bu Siti.” Mother handed me a container containing a ketupat dish wrapped in a plastic bag.
“Baik” Salma put on her hijab and left.
While in the yard, Salma saw Malik walking towards the house. They smile when they see each other.
Salma walked with Malik who was several meters in front of her. Realizing Salma was behind, Malik slowed his pace.
“Where to?” Ask Malik.
Salma was a little stunned at Malik's question.
“Ke your house.”
“Oh,” Malik smiled and they kept going hand in hand.
‘’’’’
“Kak Fiki.” I heard someone calling.
Fiki looked towards the sound and found Nanda walking over.
“I happened to stop by the store next door. Salma just told me that her sister was in an accident.”
“I already know.” Reply Fiki flat.
“Oh thank goodness, I'm just afraid big brother is still waiting for him.”
Fiki just smiled hearing someone worry about her.
“All right me first.” Nanda turned around to leave immediately.
“Wait.” Fiki stopped.

“What's your plan after graduation?” Malik suddenly asked.
“Hmm works in a clinic or hospital.” Reply Salma.
“How about getting married?” Malik asked back.
“I can't decide that, I leave everything about marriage to my parents, if they accept someone I won't turn them down because I'm sure they know what's best for me beyond myself.”
Malik nods at Salma's reply, agreeing that parents know better what is best for their child.
“Do you have a certain type to be your husband?”
“Important someone who always carries out religious obligations, can guide me to be better, responsible, and trustworthy. I hope, I can marry someone I love.” Salma smiled and glimpsed at her interlocutor at this moment.
“You? Is there something you are also planning?” Salma asked back.
“Oh we've arrived.” Salma stopped her steps.
“Mari” Malik invites Salma to enter his house.
“No need, this.” Salma stretched out her hand that held the plastic package.
“You just want to drop this off?” Malik looked astonished.
Salma nodded.
“I'm home.” Salma turned around to leave immediately.
“Recommenance.” Malik's words made Salma stop her steps.
“I want to apply for a prospective doctor.” Further.
Salma looked back at Malik and they smiled at each other.

After performing the ied prayer, you invited the villagers to come home. People seem to come in turns.
Malik also visited Salma's house. The father, who saw Malik's arrival, immediately called him to sit closer. Malik as the first citizen who won a bachelor in the village, not only made his parents proud but also most of the residents including Mr. Malik who is not from a family is and struggles without a father able to pursue the dream of completing his college.
Mr and Malik kept talking, they looked familiar.

After returning from Salma's house, Malik approached his mother to apologize and asked for her blessing to propose to Salma. Ms. Siti who heard her son's good intentions immediately hugged Malik. “My son is an adult.” Mumbled.
Ms. Siti was happy to hear that Malik likes a woman who is also good in her opinion. He approves and allows Malik to continue his intentions. Malik, who received his blessing, was very happy and grateful to his mother.

Malik will return to the city in two days, so he wants to immediately ask permission from Salma's parents to apply.
This afternoon (the day after Eid al-Adha) Malik came to Salma's house. I saw him open the door and let him in.
“What's Malik?” Ask him when Malik is sitting in front of him.
“Pardon me if I interrupt Mr.”'s break time
“It's okay.” Father smiled.
“My arrival here, I want to ask permission to apply for Salma sir.”
“Salma?”
“Yes, I put feelings on Salma.”
“You know he's still in college doctor?”
“Iya sir, I am willing to wait if you allow.”
Suddenly Mother came and sat down to face Malik.
“Malik wants to apply for Salma bu.” I saw Mom.
“The problem is that my son is a prospective doctor he has struggled from childhood to achieve his dream, not an easy thing to be accepted in the medical department.”
“Not me downgrading a job but you are just a teacher who wants to a doctor.” Continue Mother.
“Do you not think it will ruin his career?” Dad asked back.
“…..”
On the way home, Salma saw Malik from a distance. Those who ride motorcycles will pass. Salma who realized that, was both happy and nervous because she was going to meet someone special in her heart.
Salma and Malik finally cross paths, but there is something different this time, Malik does not see Salma.
