Dhafa stared at this vast building in front of him with an erratic heart. Twice he set foot in this place, first when his sister held her wedding and now he is back in this place with a different purpose.
"Are you sure you're gonna be here ? Looks like you still doubt the Fa."
Dhafa looked at the beautiful face that was currently accompanying him coming here.
"We could come another time if you..."
"I'm sure Qila, and I don't want to buy any more time." Cut Dhafa with a sure face.
Aqila looked at her lover's face which looked frustrated, probably due to the piling up work and also this important problem.
It is still recorded clearly in the memory of the story of Dhafa kemaren. He also did not expect if it turns out that the man still has a brother even this is his own younger brother.
"I don't know if my sister is alive, my uncle said he said when the accident happened, my mother and father, my sister took part in the car. But strangely the police did not bend my brother's body, only the bodies of my parents were on the bottom of the Qila gorge.
I was still a child and could not do anything, hearing that event certainly made my world collapse instantly. My parents and my only sister have left me in this world.
And a few days after the departure of my parents and also my sister, uncle brought me to Jakarta. He said he said someone would take care of me and pay for my school. I remember when I was 12 years old. And I innocently agreed to uncle's invitation without any suspicion.
And you know when I got to Jakarta I was still asleep on the bus, and my uncle cruelly left me alone in a foreign and cruel place. For two years I finally became a vagabond who had to live the rigors of life in the capital.
Until I finally met Akia, a cute and adorable little girl in my eyes. And because of that girl, Papa Aryan and Mama Kayla took care of me and even sent me to college and from there I devoted myself to the Khanza family. Even Faris' grandfather raised me as assistant and also vice CEO after papa Aryan.
We were both very close, as if I saw my sister Fitria inside Akia. We learned together and were strong together, and Faris' grandfather also advised me to always take care of him if he leaves in time.
I really didn't know, until a few days ago there was a brown envelope on the table. When I opened it, my heart stopped beating. How not it's a message from my uncle telling me my sister's still alive.
I seemed to be in disbelief, then I told Rama to investigate where my uncle and my brother were, because after he dumped me I lost track of him.
When Rama found him, it turned out that my uncle had died because he was killed by a group of thugs because he had such a large debt. And before he died he left me a photo and also the address where my sister was with his friend.
I know where it is, and tomorrow I'll be there to make sure. I want to make amends for believing in my uncle's words. I could have just met him, but I wanted to convince you first so that I am not wrong even though my little heart is sure if he is my brother*.
The Flashback Of
"Let's Master and Miss, Kyia Lufti is waiting in her room." The words of one of the pesantren managers spread the daydreams of the two people who were still standing staring at the building in front of him.
Yes, they currently have the Daarul Mukminin dipesantren belonging to Kyai Lutfi. Dhafa purposely came here to find out more about his sister. And then she made an appointment with him.
"Please sir." Said the manager kindly.
"Thank you sir, but I'm sorry don't call me sir, call me Dhafa, and this is my future wife Aqila." Dhafa replied a little kindly.
"Okay Tu.eh mas only let it taste better. I am Budi, who likes to accompany Kyai if he has an event outside the mas. Then I retreat, I've been waiting inside." Politely said.
"Thank you, Mr. Budi."
"Sami sami."
After the departure of Mr. Budi, Dhafa began to knock on the door while saying his greetings.
Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok Tok
"Assynoltomodel.."
"Waalaikumussalam warohmatulli wabarokatuh." Answer the big but soft voice from the inside.
Cclek
The door opened and appeared the figure of a middle-aged man with a wide smile and his shady eyes.
"Ealah, nak Dhafa.wes teapot, why don't you say say, I'll get picked up later." Welcome Kyai Lutfi to his mixed language.
"Sniff up Daddy Kyai."
Aqila seemed to be frowning confused by the language of the two of them. Seeing his bewildered lover Dhafa close his lips and whispered softly.
"That's Javanese, don't be confused if I'm here you're quiet enough, baby." Aqila nodded then stepped inside the house.
"Miss.mi.." Call him to his wife, when they get inside.
"Excite Bi." A middle-aged woman with a veil appeared to appear from the direction in approaching her husband.
"Father, please gawekno for kanggo tamune Abi iki Mi." Tell him to his wife. (Here, please make a drink for the guest abi, mi)
"Regume Bi." Without saying more Kyai Lutfi's wife headed to the kitchen to make drinks for her husband's two guests.
"Don't bother Kyai, I'm not good." Dhafa said with his awkward smile.
"Ora bother to." (Not bother, son)
Shortly after speaking the stale Kyai Lutfi asked the news of Akia and also ustazhah Syifa.
"How's your sister and mama doing ?"
"Alhamdulillah they are good and healthy Kyai."
"Abi, just call me Abi, let it be good. If you call Kyai it's my impression that I'm arrogant like hahaha.." His orders laugh.
"Kyai.eh Abi could have." Dhafa replied with a smile, the atmosphere was no longer awkward between the two. It seems that Dhafa has been able to adjust, seeing Kyai Lutfi's humorous attitude as the late grandfather Faris.
"Lah iyo to, this abi has said the same way everyone does not call me Kyai, but they really are on ngeyel. Sometimes make Abi sprain."
"If you may know why Abi really does not want to be called so ?" Aqila asked curiously at the figure of this middle-aged man in front of her.
"Haha..Abi just does not want to bear the sins only later in the end. We are just humans the same creation of Allah SWT. What to brag about, treasures cannot be brought to death either. Degree ? Abi was only afraid that later Abi could not account for the title Abi given to Abi. Abi better be called the name without frills Kyai or whatever, but yo still man's name is the field ngeyel."
Aqila is also confused with Dhafa, there is a shame in him considering how he has been who sometimes still boasts of his wealth and also his degree. Not like the man in front of him. We are rich but even scared.
"Do you know santriwan and santriwati who study here all are not charged any alias free."
Dhafa again gawk, how bathinnya possible, this pesantren belongs to the famous and big circles. If the student is not charged then what about the cost of other costs that must be needed by this pesantren.
"You must be confused if it is free here and where we will pay the teachers and also the interests of this boarding school right."
"Yes Abi, honestly I'm confused."
"Hahaha why confused, there is Allah SWT. This pesantren is financed by Allah, through the hand of the hand of the servant of God who trusts his property to be deposited in this pesantren, including your brother Akia."
Dhafa is increasingly surprised, his sister Akia became a donor in this dipesantren besides his papa.
"What has been Abi for a long time, I mean about Akia who became the donor of Abi's dipesantren."
"Since he lives here, your sister has become a regular donor in Abi's department. Of course, the other children of Abi are also. Indeed Abi was very moved to see how the children of Adam's grandchildren were competing with each other to get Allah's paradise SWT. Leave the property to make the house in his paradise later."
Long both of them were silent listening to a little lecture of Kyai Lutfi who immediately opened the eyes of Dhafa's heart. So many shortcomings of himself during this time, and as a human being he was embarrassed because he still always felt less grateful for what he had at this time.
"All right now we're back to the beginning. What do you need Le until you bother coming to Abi's place."
Dhafa let out a long sigh while staring at the shady face of Kyai Lutfi. For some reason his heart was beating so fast, he was suddenly nervous and pale. In a few seconds he will know his sister.
"Abi.meaning my arrival here because there are some things that Dhafa wants to know about someone who has been in Abi's boarding school."
"Who ?" Kyai Lutfi asked with a smile that appeared on her lips.
"It's about...Sparrow."
