Immediately I put my backpack beside the bed, although only for a moment still it feels like I want to break my body. Lucky it had time to perform ashar prayers at the airport, he said,
I immediately broke down my body, just a few seconds and these eyes almost closed but my memory floated back to the girl who had made my heart tethered.
Immediately I forced this body to wake up again, even though these eyes were heavy but did not seem to be a barrier. I pulled back my backpack closer, my hand deftly reached into the front pocket of the rangsel, looking for the flat object I had turned off two hours ago.
After finding it, I immediately sat down cross-legged on the bed, my hands were so smart to press the power button of my phone, immediately my smile was on its back after the image of a famous brand of one of the electronic products appeared, I can't wait to see the wallpaper I put on my phone's front screen.
My smile grew wider when the picture finally appeared. The spoiled girl who wore a milk-brown hijab was so beautiful,
"Why did I miss him so quickly!?" I muttered while staring at my phone screen and I was waiting for a while for the signal to stabilize again, apparently there was already a reply from him.
Quickly this finger swiped over to the messaging app, the name I always longed to call appearing at the very top of the list,
Deck Zahra
A name that I thought was so beautiful,
//Be careful, do not forget later if you contact me directly, lose don't expect me to reply mas ustad messages again, greetings???, what greetings? If you miss, do not deh, mas ustad just left, cook already misses,. How about a loving greeting, from Zahra who Terpercaya is a//
Always, he always managed to make me smile. Sometimes I feel like I'm his age, laughing loosely without any burden. He really managed to shift my world, I never thought that this fast God was flipping through my heart.
It was still clear how I thought about the girl I had married a few months ago, but quickly that view changed, she was not what I had thought at the beginning, she was much better than I had never expected and the more days I was made to be amazed by her kindness, her privilege.
"Say you want to take a break, see your phone with your own smile!?" the question immediately dawned on me, whether since when ummi was in my room,
"Ammy?!"
Ummi immediately sat beside me and I shifted my seat so that Ummi would be more free to sit,
"Ummi had already knocked on the door a few times, but I think you are cool to see hp, what is it? Are you the same as Zahra?"
I smiled, maybe without me saying ummi would have known,
"Ummi understand, you are indeed newlyweds. How long is the plan here?"
"God willing two weeks ummi, but if the show can be accelerated, maybe Zaki will go home sooner!"
Uhhh ....
Ummi was seen sighing, he rubbed the back of my hand that was on my lap,
"Ummi actually wants you to stay longer here, but there's no Zahra, so faster would be better. Pity Zahra for staying alone for too long."
"Yes ummi!"

I was getting ready to go to the mosque, Abi was waiting for me downstairs.
"Come bi!?" take me while fixing the prayer mat on my shoulder.
"Come on!"
We deliberately walk to the mosque, the distance of Abi's house with the mosque is not so far because it is still a complex with pesantren.
"How's the pesantren, bi?" ask me to start the conversation, we are not as familiar as most fathers and children, yes you could say I am closer to ummi, maybe because I am a boy.
"Alhamdulillah, some time ago some students have also won the book interpretation competition!"
"Alhamdulillah then Abi!"
"Next week also the ustad ustadzah send some santri for tahfid exam."
It is not surprising that this pesantren is quite in demand because its achievements can be taken into account.
"Zak, man,"
Suddenly the tone of Abi's call changed deeply, it seemed like there was something serious he wanted to say,
"What's up, bi?"
"Yesterday Kyai Nur asked you!"
I immediately turned to Abi, confirming something, "Then Abi answered what?"
"Abi told me that you're married, Abi also said that you're going home today!"
"Let's let Zaki, bi. Who met kyai Nur."
"That's better! Azan, come on!" Abi invited me to speed up our steps to get to the mosque immediately.
It was seen that the mosque was crowded with worshipers, most of the pilgrims were pesantren children and some surrounding communities.
The task of echoing the azan also pesantren children take turns, and later sahabis magrib while waiting for the isya' time, there is usually one of the oustad who fill the short study and I miss the atmosphere.
After finishing his prayer, the worshippers shook hands with each other. I'm sitting in the front row next to Abi suddenly the man next to me whispered something to me, I'm sure he's one of the leaders in the boarding school when viewed from his appearance.
"I'm sorry iftad Zaki, I asked ustad Zaki to fill the study tonight, we hope that if Zaki does not mind."
I'm a little flabbergasted, but soon I'm normal. How could? I have no one.
Abi patted my back giving support and the old man also looked so hopeful, it felt bad if he had to reject it, he said,
"Well, I'm ready!"
As they expected, I shifted my seat a little more in front and sat at the turn of the small table that had been prepared, this was the first time I filled my studies at the Abi boarding school, before I never felt ready to do it because I think here a lot of old ustad-ustad more deserving to be where I am today.

"Why's the night coming home, bi?" tanya ummi when welcoming us from the mosque.
"Talking ummi with ustad, they were curious about Zaki, right Zak?" abi asked me and I just nodded my head with a smile.
"The same question with Zaki ya bi?" tanya ummi again immediately makes me laugh, sometimes ummi's behavior reminds me of the figure of Zahra, it looks like Abi fell in love with ummi because of his behavior that ceplos like that.
Zahra, what are you doing now?
"Abi, ummi, Zaki go to the room first!" I said while leaving them.
"Not eat yet?" tanya ummi from below when I got to the top floor.
"Later aja ummi, ummi same Abi eat first!" I shouted from above not to lose to ummi.
I immediately took my phone which I had cased before leaving for the mosque,
Slightly disappointed that I did not see a single message coming from Zahra,
Doesn't he miss me?
