Ta'aruf
the Al Falah Kediri
*aduuh really cepet Ast you go home not waiting for Sunday just so you can actually - really around kediri.
will the responsibility of Ast is far away - far here but do not see all the attractions here*.
Farah slightly pursed her lips when that night her best friend Astri said if she was going home to Palembang tomorrow, astri just smiled in response to the ravings of her best friend, if only he did not think about his parents and the students at TK & TPA he left would have been happy to accept Farah's offer to postpone his return until Sunday.
*hei I can't farah the santri will soon face the test...
I haven't prepared everything for it.
woalaaah yes wess lah if so, you are right the santri is more important*....!
farah smiled understanding that she rushed to help Astri arrange clothes in her suitcase, while chatting and telling stories to spend the rest of their time together before the two friends separated again tomorrow.

it was late at night when Farah arrived at the boarding school after delivering the return of Farhan and Astri this afternoon, the girl walked gontai towards the mosque in the middle of the pesantren there is a sense of loss in his heart considering he had to return alone after the two people he loved so much returned to Palembang left memories and longing for the village his birth.
Assalamualaikum Laila's....!
maghrib - maghrib mbo yes daydreaming....!
ustadza Siti calls Breaking Farah's daydream, the girl puts on a smiling face and greets the woman standing in front of her.
*Afwan Ustadza...!
Laila just came home after delivering sodara who visited yesterday.

ustadza siti investigated, farah shook her head quickly.

Just a little lost
the woman in front of him smiled patting the shoulder of his beloved santri.
*kalo really kangen mah not what - what Laila, it has not met the family for a long time yes natural if kangen.
yes wess than kangennya not channeled mbo yes mending there pray, pray so that they are safe until the destination.
Aamiin*.....!
Farah rushed into the mosque following the orders of the ustadza siti.
Palembang
A month since Farhan and Astri's return from kediri has brought the two men closer together, Astri was seen several times coming to Farah's house to meet Farhan just ask for advice about his busyness in making questions - about the exam of the students of Tk & TPA where he taught considering Farhan was an ustadz while still in the pesantren is very reasonable for Astri if asking for his opinion and direction in making test questions.
that night in the family room of the residence Astri seen some people were busy chatting watching television while enjoying a cup of astri tea sitting in front of a pile of paper about2 exams that have been done by the students, who have been doing the test, the girl was busy checking and assessing all the results of the exam.
mrs Maimunah glanced at the activities carried out by her son from the chair beside her there was a Mr. Budi her husband was busy watching the ball.
Ast how did you send ta'aruf's proposal...?
Astri stopped his activities staring at his mother.
" astri has prepared bu stay in leave it to Ustadza Ani"
madam Maimunah smiled a glance towards her husband.
hand over immediately Ast I can't wait to have a ghost, right pa?
mr. Budi smiled in response, while astri sighed
" well tomorrow will astri submit "
while at Farhan's residence, Mirna walked up to Farhan, who was sitting reading on the balcony next to his room, the young man stopped his activities when he saw his mother sitting next to his seat.
*han....!
why mom...?
you are already successful now it has become ustadz too, is there a dream of mind to nyariin mother ghost...?
I want my grandchildren to be han*...!
the young man smiled looking at the expression begging the mother he loved so much. actually he also wanted to do the same thing but doubts still haunt his mind considering the failure he had experienced when asking ustadza Laila fellow teachers when he was still working in the pesantren in the area first. since then he has always hesitated when he wanted to propose a girl.
*will Farhan think of ma'am...!
don't think for long - long han....! mothers are envious of temen - temen mother tuh, who like to bring their grandchildren quarrel where saucy - saucy actually also make mom gemes*.
mrs Mirna smiled brightly, Farhan joined in smiling at her mother's behavior.
" yeah God not long.... "
the chatter ended when the voice of the father called to the mistress Mirna.
***
sunny morning Farhan sat joined in the crowd of santri - santri at the Great Mosque, since his return to Palembang the young man decided to become a teacher in the place of farah used to teach as a cure for his longing at farah.
what the hell are you talking about whispering....?
farhan who was just then intrigued by the behavior of some of his friends who were whispering whispered about something.
*there are some santriwati who sent proposals to ustadza ani kak...!
oo yeah...? who...?
hearing Astri's name made farhan's eyes look run looking for a female figure who was getting closer to him lately. the wise woman who was so active in working was busy chatting with Raniya and other santriwati smile engraved on Farhan's lips realized what step he had to do.
Farhan pov's
that morning when I just arrived at the mosque I saw some santriwan whispering while glancing at the santriwati feeling curious I asked about what they were talking about.
*what the hell are you talking about whispering again - whisper....?
reportedly there are some santriwati who send proposals to ustadza ani kak...!
oo yeah...? who...?
I don't know what my sister does know Astri and Raniya one of them*....!
jeeees this roar was clear when the name was heard in my ear, I lyrics the girl who was joking with her friends on the other side of the mosque, aq smilingly aware of what to do.
the recitation was over the santri began to leave the mosque now there are only aq and some other teachers who are also ready to go home when I see ustadz Yasir walking not far from where I stand.
*Afwan ustadz if ustadz is not busy can we talk for a moment...?
oooh yes please Ustadz Farhan what Ustadz wants to say.
look Ustadz I want to send you a proposal ta'aruf can Ustadz help me..?
oh of course son with pleasure...
coincidentally yesterday there were some santriwati who also sent a proposal to Ustadza Ani maybe later it could be a consideration for ustadz in choosing.
yes ustadz but can I*.......
farhan had been in serious talks with Ustadz Yashir for a long time before the talks ended and they chose to leave the mosque together to continue talks that had begun.
***
Three months passed after Astri's return there was no news that Farah could about his family until that morning Santi told Farah if he got a call from his family in Palembang, farah hurried to the Pesantren office where the phone was placed.
*As....!
Waalaikumsalam my son....!
Mothers....
how are you Farah kangen*....!
there was a sound choked from the lips of farah, after hearing the voice of his mother's longing that he could divert with various busyness during this time re-emerged when the soft voice of the person he loved was clearly heard in Farah's ear.
Thank goodness my son..!
mom misses you too....
when are you coming home, son...?
there was a sense of tightness in the heart when he heard the question, a question his mother repeatedly mentioned every time she called, questions that he repeatedly answered with various reasons so that he was not forced to immediately return to Palembang.
silence no answer from Farah makes Ms Mirna conclude if her daughter is looking for an excuse to refuse her request again but this time she will not let it, her little girl must go home no matter what.
*What other reasons will you assemble, son...?
this time you have to go home...!
you should go home....!
there's no reason "you have to attend your brother's wedding, son.
what mom...?
"what is not wrong"
really sister will marry bu*...?
this time Farah looks so enthusiastic to respond to the news given by Ms. Mirna.
*yes son so you have to go home...!
because you have to help prepare everything...
you know your own sister...
which mother can take care of this marriage on her own.
alright Farah's mom is coming home...!
when did you get married....?
Two weeks to go....!
so you have to go home in a day or two, try that because you have to help mom shop for the bride you understand Farah....?
yes Farah will be home as soon as possible*....!
farah replied, how happy she was to hear the news that she had long wanted to hear. it was very happy to know after a long time her brother learned to forget Ustadza Laila His love that he was forced to let go of marrying someone else, after a long time the fear of being disappointed always haunts the feelings of the only brother.
he was so happy if Farhan finally managed to win the war with his own feelings and fruitful tidings that almost made his heart jump out shocked to hear the news.
after talking to his mother Farah rushed to meet Ustadza Siti about her return due to Farhan's marriage, after getting permission, he rushed back to his room and cleaned up all his clothes, booked a train and plane ticket.
