93# Matt and Agus

Agus who was desperate stopped at a mosque after he came from the Risa campus. Agus sat down with sweat flooding his forehead. He leaned on the mosque's veranda and opened his jacket.

A man approached Agus who was just sitting while wagging his jacket to get a fresh breeze.

"Here, take." Said the blue-eyed man as he handed him a bottle of cold drink in front of him.

Agus looked at the man, then he smiled with a sigh.

"Thank you." Said Agus while receiving the bottle.

"No praying?" Ask the guy.

"Hmmm, no." Agus.

"Why? soon iqomah, yuk salat." Said the man.

Agus simply smiled without answering him.

Iqomah was commanded by Mu'azzin. The blue-eyed man went and prepared to pray.

Agus fell silent, there was shame in his heart. A bule with blue eyes only prays, why doesn't he? That's what's in his heart.

Agus peeked from the blue-eyed man's window of the mosque. It looks like the man is performing a congregational prayer with his other man. Agus continued to pay attention to the man until he finished his prayers.

After going out with the other congregation. The man got up from his seat and came out of the mosque.

When he came out of the mosque, the man looked at Agus who was staring at him in awe.

"Still here?" Greet that man.

Agus smiled and nodded his head.

The man approached Agus and sat down beside Agus.

"Matt's." He said while extending his hand.

Agus looked at Matt closely. Then, he welcomed Matt's hand.

"Great." Her speech.

"Where are you going?" Ask Matt.

"You go to. ah, you're not going anywhere." Agus.

"meaning?" Ask Matt.

"I-I-I have no purpose." Agus.

Matt raised both eyebrows.

Matt understood, the man sitting next to him was a traveler.

"You're muslim?" Ask Matt.

Agus nodded with doubt.

"Sholat first there, then come with me yuk. Let me take care of your bag." Matt Said.

Agus looked at Matt so deeply. Then, he nodded too.

Agus got up from his seat and went to the ablution and he took ablution there. After that, Agus also performed Dzuhur prayer.

After the Dzuhur prayer, Agus returned to the front and met with Matt who was guarding Agus' bag.

"Have you?" Ask Matt.

"It." Agus Sahut.

Matt smiled widely and told Agus to sit next to him.

"Eat already?" Ask Matt.

Agus shook his head and smiled shyly.

"Yeah, we're gonna eat." Matt invites Agus by gently pulling Agus' hand.

Agus speechless. There was a tremor in his heart.

"Oh my God, I'm a despicable person, but you met me with an angel." Agus.

Agus followed Matt to his car.

"Can you drive?" Ask Matt.

Agus nodded, Matt smiled.

"This is the car key. Now you work with me. Wanna?" Ask Matt.

Agus' tears were unstoppable again. He cried and kissed Matt's hand.

"thank you. Thanks..!" Agus.

"Now, stay with me." Said Matt who immediately believed Agus was a good person. Without a doubt, he helped Agus in his way.

It seems that Matt really practices that teaching.

Agus drives Matt's car and follows Matt's lead who takes him to a restaurant for lunch.

When they arrived at the restaurant, they talked. Trying to get to know each other.

"What's your name?" Ask Matt.

"Great."

"Ah yes, sorry I'm a little forgetful." Matt Said.

"It's okay." Agus Sahut.

"We order food, whatever you want please. Don't be shy." Matt Said.

Agus kept looking at the wingless angel's face.

After ordering food, Agus asked about what was bothering him.

"Why are you helping me? you don't know me this is a good or bad man." Ask Agus.

"Help not to see good or evil. If it is good, then, if it is evil, your business is with Allah." Matt Said.

Deggg....!

It was like a big rock. Agus' chest feels tight.

"You're so nice." Agus.

"No, I'm not a good person. I'm just trying to be good. Ever since I knew Muslims, I was at peace and getting better. Thank goodness." Matt said with a sweet smile.

Agus' heart trembled. He felt shaken.

"You're a Muslim from a small age? Where are you from?" Ask Agus.

"I've only been a Muslim for six months. I'm from Switzerland, but it's been a long time in Indonesia." Matt Said.

"How can..!" Agus was amazed.

"What can't? when did Hidayah approach? do we want to or not? At first I didn't believe in God." Matt Said.

Agus was stunned and looked at Matt closely.

"Hidayah came because I approached an extraordinary woman." Connect Matt.

"Woman?" Ask Agus.

"Women, approaching her is like pulling a rose in the middle of a forest. You have to fight." Matt Said.

Agus flabbergasted.

"There are still women today?" Batin Agus's.

"You must not believe it" Matt said with a laugh.

"I tell you, I like the regular girl the cafe waitress. She was in a hijab and had a child. At first I thought it was easy to get the woman. Turns out, it's hard."

Agus listened to Matt's story carefully.

"Know why it's so hard. I was faced with his brother. And his brother put forward an extraordinary condition. To lead me like this." Matt's Story.

"What's the condition?" Ask Agus.

"Study Religion and be able to read the Qur'an. Heavy right?" Ask Matt while laughing.

Agus looked at Matt in disbelief.

"That's hard?" Ask Agus.

"Yes. At first I grumbled. Because that woman encouraged me. I started to pursue. And it turns out I really got guidance. That woman is truly the angel that God sent me." Matt Said.

Agus speechless. He also remembered Risa. The angel he broke, he left and now he regrets. Moreover, when he finds out that he and Risa have Arkha. Agus began to shed tears.

"Why are you crying?" Ask Matt.

"I'm fine. I'm just moved. Can you take me to study religion too?" Ask Agus.

Matt looked at Agus with a sigh.

"You sure?"

"Yes I am sure. And thank you for your help. You are an angel heart." Agus.

"No brother. God moved my heart. So give thanks to God." Matt Said.

Agus' tears are getting worse. He really realized. He was too far from his path.

"Astaghfirullah al - Adzim, Allahu Akbar." His whispers are soft.

Their orders came, Matt and Agus stopped talking. They ate their lunch voraciously and were grateful for the favors they had today.
