Love Me Because of God
Winter in Blitar



A bright morning in the city of Blitar, but the cold air was so bone-chilling. Maybe you could say this is his “Winter” Blitar. Although the air is not so friendly, it does not in the least hinder the people of Blitar to keep on the move as usual. Then the motorized vehicle remains a decoration of the cold atmosphere this morning.


The activity in Legi Market seems to be very busy. Not much different from what the hijab girl routinely does, Nayla's name. Although this morning the air was a little cooler than usual, it did not dampen Nayla's intention to go to the market. Every 7am he always helps his parents to open a stall in the market. Nayla is the eldest daughter of ustadz as well as a merchant, Mr. Arif and Mother Goddess. His status now is as a student at the State University of Malang, because currently on semester vacation, Nayla spends her time helping her parents. “Nduk, the shop you open first!! Same father Mother later overtake”. Mr. Arif's orders on Nayla. “enggeh Yah, Nayla thimble rumiyen, Assalamu’alaikum” replied Nayla while moving to his favorite motorbike to the market. Arriving there swiftly Nayla opened her shop and served the buyers who began to arrive. Soon his father and mother came and helped him serve the buyer.


Today Nayla plans to go to PBK with her best friend Sari. After the store looks deserted, Nayla asks her father and mother for permission. “Yes, Bun, Nay pamit ten PBK kaleh Sari ngggeh?” said Nayla softly. “iyo Nduk, but wangsulo dik, Mommy wants to wes readyne breakfast”, said the mother. “enggeh, Assalamu’alaikum” reply Nayla while kissing her parents' hands and go.


Meanwhile, in other parts of the world, Dafa, the only son of a family of famous businessmen in Jakarta, is getting ready for a vacation. This handsome guy is a student majoring in management at the University of Indonesia. This semester holiday Dafa wants to find a different atmosphere than before. Usually Dafa spent his vacation abroad, but this time he was interested in visiting Blitar one of the small cities in East Java, which became the hometown of his idol Mr. Ir. Sukarno. Dafa departs from Jakarta at around 6 am, arriving at Abdurrachman Saleh Malang Airport at 9 am and arriving in Blitar at around 11 am. Without rest he went straight to the Tomb of Mr. Ir. Sukarno. Dafa was very enthusiastic about his first visit this time, unceasingly Dafa photographed every new angle and atmosphere he encountered there. He was also interested to see the building next to the burial place of Mr. Soekarno, which was made as a Library. Or better known as PBK (Bung Karno Library).


Meanwhile, Nayla had arrived at the library since 10 o'clock, but she was waiting for Sari, but did not come too. It has been an hour since Nayla waited for Sari in PBK. Nayla decides to call Sari. So focused on his phone Nayla accidentally hit someone. Gubraaakkk, please,


“Astaghfirullah pp ‘adzim, sorry, sorry, not sengojo”. Nayla said spontaneously and accidentally dropped her phone. Dafa who was also too serious about taking pictures, accidentally hit a girl, and the girl muttered with a language that was foreign to her. His phone also fell. “oh, yes it's okay mbak, I was wrong too. I was too absorbed in taking pictures and did not pay attention to Jalan”, Dafa told the girl. They apologized to each other, and without their acquaintances immediately took their phones that both fell. Without them knowing it turns out their phones have been switched. And they just leave without a burden.


Suddenly the phone Dafa was carrying rang. “Sari? who is this number? who is Sari, the feelings of my friends are not da whose name is Sari deh”, muttered Dafa after reading the name listed on his phone. Slightly doubtful Dafa raised it. “halo Nay, sorry Nay I did not iso to PBK, Father same mother I lungo nang Malang, trus I nemeni adek” said the voice of the girl at the end there. Dafa confused the girl spoke a language that was not very understood. “sorry, who is this? this is Dafa, please talk to Bahasa Indonesia huh?” said Dafa. “lho, is this not Nayla? but this feeling is really Nayla's number? Where's the light?” said Sari at length. The girl's question increasingly confused Dafa, without thinking again he immediately closed his phone. He was still confused as to what the girl on the phone meant. After he noticed it really turned out that the phone he was carrying was not his. “Nayla, this must belong to the girl who was, surely my phone is switched with this”, muttered Dafa. And suddenly the phone he brought rang again, still from the same number. “heh, why did you hang up my phone earlier? where's Nayla? don't you kidnap ya?” cerocos Sari who started to worry about Nayla. “no, no, this is Dafa, it seems like my phone was switched with your friend's phone, this is your friend's phone I brought, and my phone also he brought”, explained Dafa. “genuinely? don't lie, will you? beware that Bahong I report to the police later?” threaten Sari. “iya right, I will try to call your friend, just relax I'm a good guy kok”, Dafa assured Sari. Then he hung up on Sari, and tried to call her phone that Nayla was carrying.


“oh, it turns out this is not my phone, our phone switched, well I wait in the parking lot of the end of the souvenir market huh?” nayla said to Dafa, after she realized that her phone had been switched. Dafa and Nayla also met at the end of the market parking lot. “sorry yes, I was in a hurry, as a result of our phone switched”, said Nayla apologized. “iya, it's okay, it's okay, I also did not examine first”, replied Dafa. Nalya sweet smile “oy, introduce me,”. “Nayla right?” Dafa cut off Nayla. “kok you know?”, asked Nayla. “So your friend if not wrong Sari his name, call on the phone, and mention the name Nayla, well I conclude your name must be Nayla, I'm Dafa”, I'm, said Dafa introduced himself while extending his hand. But Nayla did not reply to Dafa's hand, she just clenched her palms in front of her chest while smiling “salam know”. Dafa was a little surprised by Nayla's attitude, but he respected that, he immediately pulled out his hand “oy, you are from this area right?” said Dafa. “iya, like you are not here huh?” answer Nayla. “iya, I'm from Jakarta, I'm on vacation here. Oya, you are the original Blitar, surely know the ins and outs of this city, because I am new and completely unfamiliar with this city, you want to be my tour guide while here? but that is if you do not mind”, said Dafa a little hesitant. “hemm, can it, but you want to use the motor, how?” said Nayla. “oke, who's afraid, yes already tomorrow I wait for you here at 8 am ya?” said Dafa sure. “siip, yes I have left first huh? Assalamu’alaikum,”, said Nayla while leaving. “Wa’alaikum salam”, Dafa replied. Dafa slightly did not answer Nayla's greeting, because in Jakarta rarely there are people who go to say hello. Even at home his parents did not educate him like that. Suddenly Dafa remembered, from the moment he had not contacted Papa and Mama, he immediately dialed several numbers from his phone and immediately connected with his Mama. Dafa explained the various reasons why he was late in calling while moving to the hotel where he was staying.


The next day Dafa seemed so enthusiastic, because he could travel around the city of Blitar, and could get to know Blitar better. At 7 he finished his bath and prepared for breakfast. Suddenly he wanted to call the girl yesterday, just to remind him. He tried to find the girl's number on the last call list on his phone. Fortunately there is still, “hai, you did not forget right?” say Dafa to Nayla at the end there. “oh, yes it's okay, you finish your activities first, later if you have gone directly to the place yesterday yes?” said Dafa again. “iya, wa’alaikum salam”, again Dafa made kagok Nayla, so far Dafa has never ended the call with greetings, but Nayla has now taught it. Without him realizing it, he began to be interested in knowing Nayla's daily life. Without further ado he immediately finished his breakfast and immediately left for PBK.


“of course not to forget, but I help Dad with Mother open the kiosk first huh?” nayla said to Dafa at the other end. Nayla was a little surprised by Dafa, the guy who yesterday will contact her just to remind her promise yesterday. “sopo nduk?”, reprimanded his mother. “oh, niku Bun, a new friend so Jakarta, so, nyuwun Nayla deviates around Blitar, so mike Nay pamit ten PBK maleh?”, replied Nayla at the same time asking for permission. “oh, iyo nduk not opo-opo co neng ori-ati lho yo?”, message Mother Nayla to her. “enggeh bun,”, Nayla smiled, and resumed her work so that it was quickly completed and immediately kept her promise to Dafa.


At 7:30 Nayla and Dafa both left for PBK, only Nayla departed from home while Dafa was from her hotel. After they arrived, they went straight to the place yesterday when they first met. “hai, have you waited a long time?” greet Dafa to Nayla. “oh, not new until”, said Nayla. “so? where do we start?” ask Dafa impatiently. “hemm, up to you, you already know all about this PBK?” nayla said softly. “PBK?” dafa said curious. “ini this building, his name is Bung Karno” Library, explained Nayla. “oh, not all, yesterday I just photographed the exterior of course”, said Dafa. “oke, <TAG1>oke, if so we start from that museum huh?” said Nayla while pointing to a building. “siap,” reply Dafa enthusiastically.


Nayla explained everything she knew about the museum, all the relics of Mr. Soekarno. Dafa seems very interested in everything Nayla talks about, especially when it comes to her idol. He constantly watched Nayla, and occasionally looked at the thing Nayla pointed at. And his curiosity peaked when Nayla pointed to one of Mr. Soekarno's paintings, whose myth seemed to have a heartbeat. Dafa looked at the painting curiously. “hai, seriously look at it, the heartbeat is not just a Daf myth?” reprimand Nayla to Dafa who is still seriously looking at the painting. “eh, you just ngaggetin Nay, but it seems real, it's on his chest beating” said Dafa while pointing at the painting. “hemm yes I have also seen, but maybe it is just a suggestion of Daf”, asserted Nayla. “oh, is that it? but it is indeed really great well Mr. Soekarno, it is not wrong I idolize it, yes let's continue”, said Dafa while moving away. Nayla nodded slowly and followed Dafa's steps.


Then ahead of the dhuhur they continued their journey to Penataran Temple in Nglegok Village. With Dafa using Nayla motorbike, the two of them moved to the penataran temple complex. On the way, Nayla asked to stop for a while at a mosque to pray dhuhur. Dafa according to what Nayla asked, because he also did not know where to go to Penataran Temple. And Nayla invites Dafa to pray dhuhur first. Dafa is a little kagok, because he has not set foot in the mosque for a long time, even praying is rarely done. A little awkwardly Dafa complied with Nayla's request. They also perform dhuhur prayer together even though they are not’ah congregation, because Dafa refuses to become a priest. Since then Dafa began to be more interested in the personality of this girl, which he thought was very much different from the girl he knew in Jakarta.


Finish their prayers continue their journey. All the way between them no one spoke, all were silent. Because of feeling bad Dafa began to melt the atmosphere by starting a conversation. “Nay, you haven't eaten yet right? how about we eat first?” say Dafa a little embarrassed. “there are you Daf”, replied Nayla. “what do you want to eat? meatballs, or what? we stop for a minute?” ask Dafa again. “ whatever you are Daf, I follow”, said Nayla casually. “hemm from earlier it is up to mulu, yes already, we stop at the front shop there, eat chicken noodles”, eat chicken noodles, said Dafa. “hemm,” firmly Nayla, nodding. They stopped at a stall and bought chicken noodles.


After they finished eating they continued their journey to Penataran Temple. There Dafa looks very enjoy, even though the air this time feels hot. “Nay, this is drinking, maybe you haus”, ucapa Dafa offers mineral water. “oh, yes Daf, thank you,” reply Nayla friendly. In the middle of their conversation, Nayla's phone rang. “Oh, enggeh Bun, Nay wangsul sakniki”, Nayla told someone on the other end. With words that Dafa does not understand. “Dafa, I'm so sorry, like we have to go home now deh, my mother called me earlier saying there was something of sudden interest, and I have to go home now”, said Nayla with a slightly regretful tone. “hemm, that's it, yes we've gone home now, but tomorrow anterin I around Blitar again yes?”, said Dafa. “oke, take it easy, meet at PBK again yes?”, reply Nayla. “siip, <TAG1>siip, yes, let's go home”, said Dafa while leaving followed by Nayla.


The next day they met again in the PBK, this time they headed to Gebang Palace, the residence of Bung Karno. Still like yesterday Dafa is still very enthusiastic about the trip this time. It has been going on for the last 4 days. There are many places Dafa and Nayla have visited.


Day 5 Dafa holidays in Blitar, still want to go around. But today there is a little bit different. Today Nayla can not accompany Dafa, because her parents told her to keep the kiosk. “maaf Daf, today I can not accompany you, I was told my parents to wait for the stall, they are going to Malang, how dong?” nayla said to Dafa who was on the other end of the phone with a very sorry tone. “real Daf, is it okay you are here? yes, I will text – in Pasar Legi address and kiosk”, said Nayla. Nayla hung up on him and started typing his kiosk address.


“oh, I see Nay, it's okay but if I may, I'll go to your kiosk huh? I'll help you at once, that's if you don't mind Nay?” said Dafa to Nayla. “siip Nay, I get ready”, said Dafa cheerfully. For some reason Dafa suddenly wanted to offer to help Nayla, even though he had never entered a traditional market before, but this time he was very interested in getting to know Nayla further, and he thought this was one way. After receiving a text message from Nayla Dafa immediately to the address.


Suddenly Father and Mother Nayla arrived. “Assalamu’alaikum,” said Nayla's father slightly surprised Dafa and Nayla who were busy talking. “Wa’alaikumsalam,” answer they are both compact. “Dad, Mother, mpun wangsul to?” said Nayla. “huh, again talk that I do not understand” muttered Dafa in the heart. “iki sopo nduk?” ask Nayla's father while pointing at Dafa. Dafa is a little misbehaved. “oh, this is a friend of Nay Yah, from Jakarta Dafa his name, he mboten saget java?” nayla tries to explain. Dafa grabbed the hands of Father and Mother Nayla and shook hands while introducing themselves, “Dafa Om, Auntie, sorry I can't speak java”. Father and Mother welcome Dafa, and understand the situation that can not speak Javanese, “iya son, it's okay”, said Mother Nayla friendly. Dafa was relieved to be well received by the Nayla family. “oy Bun, this was Nayla assisted with Dafa to guard the stall, Nayla almost fainted probably because of soy sauce”, Nayla, said Nayla recounted everything that happened earlier. “thank you very much Le, oy, ‘Le’ that call for boys, it's okay Om call you like that”, I'll call you, obviously Nayla's father, happy because Dafa has helped his daughter. “oh, of course it's okay Om, Dafa is happy”, said Dafa. They were all dissolved in a conversation filled with warmth. Dafa felt a great sense of kinship from Nayla's family, because as long as she was at home, Mama and Papa rarely chatted warmly as they felt today. Dafa is missing her Mom and Dad. Towards the dhuhur, Dafa asked for permission to say goodbye, but was prevented by Nayla's father. “Sebentar to Le, we pray jama’ah dulu”, invite him. Because Dafa is not good to refuse the invitation of Father Nayla Dafa decided to pray dhuhur first and then go home. This is one more thing that Dafa has never felt at home, deeply religious. Dafa is very envious of Nayla's family, he wishes her family could be like Nayla's here.


For almost a week in Blitar, Dafa felt a lot of positive things that he could, especially after being friends with Nayla and being able to get to know Nayla and her family more closely. Tonight this week Dafa plans to invite Nayla to see Blitar at night and treat him to a meal for a sign of gratitude for all this time. Wanting to surprise Nayla Dafa, she did not tell Nayla that she was coming to her house. Dafa asks for Nayla's home address through Sari's friend Nayla. Dafa came to Nayla's house, “Assalamu’alaikum,” he said a little doubt. “Wa’alaikum salam” replied Nayla's father behind the door. Dafa felt increasingly groggy, when the door was opened, his grooves increased, because who opened the door Nayla's father. Previously he had never done this, because he had never invited a girl, but instead he was often invited by girls. “Oh, Dafa, please enter Le, Nayla is still in the room, briefly Yes Om call first”, said Father Nayla is friendly, while inviting Dafa to enter the house. “oh, yes Om, thanks”, thanks, dafa said a little relieved. Vaguely Dafa can hear the voice of the person who is teaching. “certainly it is Nayla who is teaching, her voice is very beautiful” muttered Dafa to herself. Dafa's heart felt peaceful to hear Nayla teach, her voice was melodious and very soothing. Dafa is increasingly admiring Nayla, “waw, truly a beautiful girl, born and inner, want me to have something like that” muttered Dafa. “why Le? what do you want something like that?briefly yes, Nduk was naji, continue now all prayers”, reproof Nayla's father a little make Dafa shocked and resuscitate him. “Om, surprise, yes Om, it's okay, oy Om all Dafa want to ask permission, want to take Nayla for a walk tonight, want to see the plaza”, want to see, say Dafa and ask permission from Nayla's father. There was a hint of doubt in his heart, fear of not being allowed, yet his worries were unproven. Turns out Nayla's father let them both go. Nayla's father believed in Dafa that he was a good son, who would take care of his daughter, but there was a condition. They both had to invite Haikal Nayla's sister, so as not to cause slander. These conditions did not make Dafa undo his intentions. He instead welcomed the terms with pleasure. “Dafa? know where my house is?” said Nayla to divert the conversation of the two men. “hehe Nayla, I asked Sari, oy you now have time right? I treat?” say Dafa sure. “ha? treaties? now?” replied Nayla hesitantly, while glancing at her Father. “nothing Nduk, you changed your clothes there, but your sister followed ya?” said Nayla's father, as if he knew what his son meant. “take Haikal Yah? you how is Daf?” said Nayla was afraid Dafa was uncomfortable with her father's request. “nothing Nay, Om had already said kok”, said Dafa calmly. “oh, yes it has snapped, I changed clothes first”, I changed my clothes, nayla. Dafa nodded. A few minutes later the two of them with Haikal left for the square. This time driving a car that Dafa rented specifically for tonight. “Daf, where do you get the car from?” tanya Nayla opened the conversation. “oh, this was I borrowed to the rental, it's okay to take a car. This part is night, cold right?”, Dafa replied casually. “bener too, now is Blitar air again cold-cold, yes this is ‘winter Blitar’”, said Nayla more to herself. “iya, unfortunately the snow does not stop here?”, said Dafa. “hemm yes, maybe tonight it will be more beautiful if it snows”, replied Nayla. Dafa nodded, while driving the car occasionally he looked at Nayla's face, calm and as if he would not stop looking at that face even for a second. “kak, where are we going?” ask Haikal plain, aware of Dafa who is busy looking at Nayla. “oh, we go to Dik square, later brother treat everything you want”, replied Dafa. “real brother? hooray, I'll have ice cream, siomay,” Haikal said. “Ikal, can not be like that, pity brother Dafanya must pay everything, your snacks are not many?” reprimand Nayla on Haikal that slightly reduce his excitement. “udah Nay, it's okay, I was going to say you want to treat”, said Dafa calmly. “tuh, <TAG1>, brother Dafanya just do not mind brother who even bother anyway? brother does not want the attention of Brother Dafa distracted me huh?” goda Haikal. “husss, what the hell are you,” said Nayla timidly. Dafa smiled at the behavior of these brothers.


Upon arrival at the Square, Haikal immediately went to the siomay seller and memasan siomay his favorite. Dafa and Nayla just smiled at Haikal's behavior. “forgive my sister Daf, morotin you will be?” says Nayla. “morotin what? no, I have already considered that I this time again get a lot of money from raffle”, said Dafa casually. Nayla laughed lightly. They approached Haikal who was waiting for his order, and they also decided to join in ordering the same siomay. There was a moment of ice between them. Probably equally groggy, because this is the first time Nayla walks the same guy on a Sunday night. So was Dafa, this was his first time taking a street girl. “Nay,” said Dafa dilute the atmosphere. “iya, why Daf?”, said Nayla. “your life is like this huh?” ask Dafa. “means?” reply Nayla. “gini, everyday that you do it like this, he meant? you help Dad with your Mother, teach and always obey worship”, explained Dafa. “oh, yes this is my activity Daf became a rough trader, if not my holiday I will become a student, if the worship problem, if the problem is, that is already Daf's need, the need to establish a relationship with Allah”, said Nayla casually. “hemm, I envy Nay, you have a perfect family, full of happiness, and very religious, he said, different from my family. They are complete, but I rarely feel their presence, they are busy with business, worship is rare. So it is not wrong if I also rarely pray”, explained Dafa. “hemm, it is still not too late to fix Daf, you should be able to be an example for them, explained Dafa, you must further improve your worship”, asserted Nayla. “iya Nay, I will try, but honestly, you have taught me many things, thank you?” say Dafa.


“thank you for?” tanya Nayla. “make it all, have been friends while in Blitar, teach a lot about Islam, which was previously foreign to me”, said Dafa. “sama-sama Dafa, who is a Muslim, you have paid for it with all this?”, said Nayla casually while cupping her hands to the body. Looks like Jayla is starting to feel cold. Dafa captured the atmosphere that Nayla felt “you were cold Nay, this was wearing my jacket” he said as he removed the jacket and held it out to Nayla. Nayla was a little surprised by the jacket from Dafa. Not expecting this guy beside her turned out to be sweet too, with a little hesitation Nayla accepted it. “thank Daf,” said Nayla slowly. Dafa smiled “oy, let's take photos for our memories in Blitar, Haikal let's here we have a photo of the past” shouted Dafa to Haikal who was busy enjoying siomay. The three of them dissolved in excitement, and Dafa captured all those moments on his beloved camera. “Nay,” says Dafa slowly. “iya Daf, why?” answer Nayla casually. “ tonight all I want to say goodbye, tomorrow I want to go home to Jakarta, My mother yesterday called and told me to go home quickly. Though there's still a lot I want to know about Blitar, but how else. Once again thank you Nayla, it's your pleasure to accompany me to find out a small part of this Blitar. I am happy to know you, you are a different girl from most girls I know”, said Dafa with a little heavy heart. “oh, yes Daf, equally, said Dafa, so you're going home tomorrow? what time?” said Nayla. “besok at 8 am I leave for Abdurrachman Saleh” Airport, replied Dafa. “hemm so, but sorry Daf, I tomorrow can not deliver you”, said Nayla regretted. “alah, I am sorry, don't be okay Nay, trouble you later. But take it easy Nay, God willing I will come back here”, said Dafa cheerfully. “oke Daf, I wait for your arrival again yes, don’ forget me!!” nayla said a little heavy. Somehow, but only this time he was heavy left by a guy, never before. “certainly it was Nay, oy already at night like, you are also cold, we go home huh?” bring Dafa. They also took Haikal and left Blitar City Square. And that night was a very impressive night for both of them. Sweet sunday night.


The next day Dafa returned to Jakarta and Nayla had her usual day. But today there was the same sense of loss in their hearts. During the trip, Dafa did not stop remembering his beautiful moment in Blitar with Nayla through his favorite camera. So did Nayla, her sweet and short memories with Dafa always came to her mind. They themselves do not understand the meaning of all this.


Today is exactly a week since Dafa's return. Lately Nayla is more often dizzy and suddenly nosebleed. Dad and his mother are worried about the condition of his daughter, they invite Nayla to check with the doctor. Nayla doesn't know what pain she's going through right now, and doctors are advising her to get a blood test. And the labaratorium test has been completed and the results can be seen. Mother Nayla suddenly cried after reading the results of the test. Nayla is curious. After Nayla reads the test letter unknowingly falls out of Nayla's hands.


While away there on the same day, Dafa suddenly felt his heart ache. I don't know what because, but suddenly Nayla crossed his mind. Bad prejudices also appear in the mind of Dafa, “Nayla? what's up with him? I hope he's okay. O Allah protect Nayla”, he murmured in his heart. After his return from Blitar, many changes to Dafa, now he is diligent in praying and never ventured again, more polite to parents, more mature and more appreciative of life. And now he was chosen by his father to be a director at the branch office. His family is now more warm and harmonious. But there is still one problem that Dafa cannot solve. Nayla, yes this is Nayla's problem, the last week she always thought of Nayla, maybe she was feeling longing. “being far away from you taught me the meaning of a longing Nayla” unconsciously ejected such guMaman from her mouth. “why am I? is this what it's like to fall in love?” ask Dafa to yourself. Suddenly there was a subtle whisper, suddenly made Dafa rise from his chair. “ya, it is true I have fallen in love with the girl”, he said sure. Without a second thought Dafa immediately left his office and went straight to Blitar. Did not have time to tell Papa and his mother who was still in the office, Dafa just said goodbye to them by phone.


“Nayla, I’m back”, muttered Dafa after he set foot on Blitar. Untired after a fairly exhausting journey, Dafa went straight to Nayla's house. But the disappointment he got, his house was empty. “where is Nayla huh?” ask him to yourself. “Maybe they go, tomorrow I'll be here again”, he thought. Dafa immediately left the house and went to look for lodging. Shortly after Dafa left, Nayla and the family arrived home. There was sadness on the faces of this family. They came down with Nayla who looked very weak. No one talks between them during the trip to Nayla's room. After a few minutes of silence, Nayla's phone suddenly goes off a little shocking to everyone in the room. “Assalamu’alaikum Nay, how are you doing? I went to your house but I think your house is empty, tomorrow I go to your house? there is something I want to convey” said the voice at the end there cheerfully. Nayla was convinced that this was a familiar voice to her, and her countenance turned a little cheerful, though it was inevitable that she was now weak. “Wa’alaiku greetings, Alhamdulillah healthy Daf, you yourself how?” said Nayla in a soft voice. “gak kok Daf, this is just a little flu, so a little hoarse voice. But sorry before Daf, you don't come tomorrow? it's okay, just don't come here, next time we meet ya later I text when. Udah yes, Wassalamu’alaikum” said Nayla a little in a hurry not to until Dafa knows the actual situation. “Well, Bun, Ikal, Nay ask for help lest Dafa know all this”, Nayla told the rest of her family. Everyone nodded and a warm hug followed after.


“hah? why can't it be Nay?” tanya Dafa is full of questions and a little disappointed. “wa’alaikumsalam”, said Dafa limp while closing his phone. “Why? what happened to Nayla, why can't I go to her house tomorrow? freaky? his voice was different, like he was sick. Or maybe she's sick?” muttered Dafa wondered to himself. “if you can't go to his house tomorrow I go to his kiosk aja” he said cheerfully. Like you're getting your way out of the labyrinth.


The next day Dafa came to Nayla's father's stall, but there he did not meet Nayla, he only met her father. They talk a little. Nayla's father said Nayla was currently going to her aunt's house on vacation, and could not be bothered. Dafa was a little disappointed, but he understood that. For 5 days he didn't call Nayla, gave Nayla my wat to go on vacation. He filled his time to tour Blitar, as well as reminiscing about the memories with Nayla. Suddenly a message filled the screen of his phone. The look on her face that was a little blurry, now turned cheerful. Sms from Nayla, he invited Dafa to meet at PBK, where they first met. Without waiting for a long time Dafa immediately got up and went to PBK. According to him it's the right time he should express his feelings to Nayla now.


For 5 days a feeling of guilt haunted Nayla, and the day she ventured to meet Dafa. He can't lie like this. He has to explain everything. After meeting, they talked about removing the kangen. Nayla tried to act as usual, even though she was actually enduring the pain. “Nay you are pale, sick huh?” ask Dafa. “not Kok Daf, healthy kok” said Nayla slowly. “oy, ada,” said Dafa and Nayla accidentally together. They smile blush shyly. “kamu aja Daf”, said Nayla. “nothing nih me first? gini Nay, during my time in Jakarta, I really felt a very heavy longing for you, before I had never felt like this, you had something that could interest me, he said, but I don't know what it is. I guess I got your love virus Nay, so let me love you Nayla?” said Dafa firmly. Dafa's words suddenly made Nayla surprised, why the feeling she felt was the same as Dafa. But he thinks all of that is unlikely to happen, the time is narrow. He could not accept Dafa, he did not want to disappoint Dafa. He did not want Dafa to be sad about it. Nayla was confused as to what she should do. “Nayla,” call Dafa to wake Nayla from the mess she had in mind. Nayla knows what she has to say now “Dafa, I really appreciate your feelings, I thank you for loving a country girl like me who is obviously much different from the girls in town. That feeling of love is not to blame. But I'm so sorry Daf, I can't allow you to love me, because tomorrow I will be in someone's sermon, so I can't. I'm sorry Daf, maybe today is our last meeting here where we first met. I'm glad I got to know you. Goodbye Dafa,”, said Nayla with a heavy and sobbing while leaving Dafa who was still sitting glued to himself.


Today Dafa felt what lightning was like striking him. “Nayla tomorrow at Khitbah? l'm late? stupid me, why haven't I realized how I feel?” he started to blame himself. His body began to feel weak, even more so his heart seemed to be unable to beat anymore. Dafa had just started to step out of his place after the sky of Blitar city had cried with him. With a listless body Dafa returned to the inn, and he immediately took ablution. He believes prayer is a powerful way to treat his pain. On his word Dafa wept complaining to the owner of life. After the completion of his direct confiding event with Allah, Dafa began to read the Qur’an. And it was true that his heart felt much calmer. Now he began to have another spirit to live on, though his heart was still torn apart, but he believed God's plan would be far more beautiful behind it all.


The next day Dafa plans to return to Jakarta, because his presence in Blitar is no longer important, he is also unable to see his idol in the Khitbah of other men, not himself. But he decided to go to the PBK first to say goodbye to a place full of memories for him who had witnessed his meeting with Nayla. Maybe after this Dafa will no longer set foot in Blitar, because there are too many memories here and it will be difficult for him to forget Nayla. Blitar will forever be the sweetest city for him. But in the middle of his journey, because Dafa drove his rental car with little concentration, Dafa finally hit a father who was crossing. The men fainted and were lightly injured. Dafa swiftly brought the father to the hospital.


It turns out that on the same day and hospital Nayla is also undergoing chemotherapy. Accidentally Dafa met with Father and Mother Nayla who were waiting for Nayla who was undergoing therapy. “Assalamu’alaikum, Om, Aunt, here too?” reprimand Dafa. “wa’alaikumsalam, you Le, you are also here? you sick?” replied Nayla's father. “oh, no Om, there was a bit of a disaster, Dafa hit people, but Alhamdulillah the wound is only light and can already go home. Then Om, same Auntie here, who's sick Om? Nayla yes Om?”, obviously Dafa at once asked curiously. Father and Mother Nayla bingun had to talk to Dafa, because they had asked Nayla to keep her pain a secret, but they could not bear to see Dafa who seemed worried about Nayla's situation. “Om, Aunt?” tegur Dafa awakened Father and Mother Nayla from their respective minds. “eh, yes Le, Nayla is sick”, replied Mother Nayla. “Astaghfirullah p ‘adzim, what pain Aunty? won't Nayla be in someone's Khitbah today?” said Dafa increasingly worried. “di Khitbah Le?” asked Nayla's father. “iya Om, yesterday Nayla said to Dafa that way, she can not meet Dafa anymore. Though if you can be honest Om, Aunt, Dafa also loves Nayla, but already in the first place of others, Dafa lost quickly”, said Dafa with a little smile. “Astaghfirullah p ‘adzim, Nduk,” said Mother Nayla and began to shed tears. They increasingly did not have to lie to Dafa anymore, and they decided to tell Dafa all about it. All the suffering that Nayla, the Leukemia she is suffering from now and the pain that Nayla has to go through during chemotherapy. Unknowingly tears trickled down the cheeks of the three of them, all dissolved in sadness. “Astaghfirullah p ‘adzim, Nayla, why lie anyway? Oh Allah, she is a really strong girl, protect her”, said Dafa regretting Nayla's lies. Because all of this made Dafa more and more convinced of his love for Nayla. “Om, let Dafa accompany the rest of Nayla time huh?” say Dafa to Nayla's Father. With a slight sobbing Nayla's father nodded and allowed Dafa's request, as he knew Dafa's feelings for Nayla were very sincere. Finally, the return of Dafa, whose plan today must be postponed.


After Nayla had finished chemotherapy, she was treated temporarily in a hospital room. When Nayla first opened her eyes, she was surprised to see Dafa beside her. “Astaghfirullah p ‘adzim, why is there a shadow of Dafa here? I think too much of him this” muttered Nayla more to myself. Dafa, Father and Mother Nayla just smiled at Nayla's words. “Nayla, this is not a shadow, this is actually”, Dafa explained to Nayla. “No way, surely I just ngigo”, said Nayla. “not, if you don't believe pinch your cheek?” say Dafa. Nayla according to her words. And finally believe that this is real. “kamu, why here Dafa? know where?” tanya Nayla is weak. “kemarin said you want in Khitbah, now I want your Khitbah?” dafa said relax. Nayla was shocked to hear Dafa's words. And he began to shed tears. “kok even cry Nayla, as long as you know Nay, even though later you will be ugly because of chemotherapy, or as severe as your pain, or as severe as you are, all that will not reduce my love to kamu”, said Dafa. “but Dafa, all this will not be long, I do not want to make you sad because of my departure”, elak Nayla. “kamu Nayla, I do not want to make you sad because of my departure, I will be sadder if I cannot accompany you through all this”, said Dafa with tears that began to flow. “thank you Daf, you already love me, Dafa said, and you want to give up your time in the rest of my life”, said Nayla. “got I will never leave you alone again Nay. So then? I officially propose you, well even though the place is not romantic”, said Dafa began to melt the atmosphere full of haru. “hemm, Father , Mother pripun?” nayla said to Father and Mother. Father and Mother nodded and smiled happily. “ye, Finally I did not become heartbroken”, said Dafa excited. Making Nayla and her parents smile at her behavior.


Since that day, never a day did Dafa not miss to accompany Nayla. Nayla looked so happy, as did Dafa. But Nayla's condition is not friendly, the more the day gets worse. But Nayla remains strong because there are many people who love her. One day during a Dafa and Nayla conversation, “Dafa,” said Nayla slowly. “iya, why Nayla,” responded to Dafa. “aku really want to be able to memorize Al-Qur’an, so that you can do this, but not the time?” said Nayla. “just calm Nayla, there is still a lot of time, you must be healed, and all you need to know is I still love you”, said Dafa reassuring Nayla. “I also love you Daf”, and all you need to know is that I love you, nayla said slowly. They looked at each other meaningfully. “eghm, still not mukhrim you know,” Haikal's voice surprised them and immediately awakened them, and made them blush embarrassed. “eh, you are Dik, you are, finished school”, asked Dafa kindly try to cover the salting, look familiar like his own adek. “after brother, there was no additional lesson”, said Haikal relaxed. They were busy talking and joking. But Nayla was smiling and suddenly she felt dizzy and started to nosebleed. Dafa can't do anything because he can't hold Nayla who hasn't come to faith. He was very worried about Nayla. Dafa finally asked Haikal to call Father and Mother Nayla. And Nayla was taken to the hospital. This time Nayla was absolutely critical, all worried about her plight. The doctor came out and told her there was no hope for Nayla, all crying, and began to enter the room. Nayla looked so weak with various tools still on her body. Dafa could not bear to see Nayla's situation like this. “Nay, if you want, for your pain for me Nay, so we can feel the same”, said Dafa. Nayla was so weak her voice sounded so soft. “thank you Dafa, Father, Mother, Ikal, for everything, forgive Nayla, it's time, Nayla said goodbye, Lailaillallah”, with a stammer Nayla said her last word, Nayla said her last words, and she went away for all eternity with a sweet smile on her lips. All screaming, crying broke out in that environment. Good bye Nayla. Since that time Dafa became a devout worshipper and he plans to realize Nayla's ideals to be able to memorize the Qur’an. Her mother and father fully supported Dafa's decision. And for Dafa to know Nayla is the most beautiful gift he has ever received, Blitar will be his favorite city, and his city of memories with Nayla. Best memories at ‘Winter in Blitar’.
