Zahra returned to doing activities as usual, taking care of boutiques in the city of P and several branches in other cities.
Zahra sometimes feels bored because she is often urged to get married again.
Salsa who had always been on his side was very understanding because this situation was also not easy for Zahra.
"Sa, how's Mama Anita doing"
"Alhamdulillah good mama. Mama and papa also often tell you the same children"
"It's been ten years but Dimas' shadow has not escaped my mind. If I marry again, can I still meet him in heaven" Zahra asked sobbing.
Salsa just sighed hearing the words of her best friend.
"I've been a widow twice, how can I be entitled to seek happiness by remarrying. What's appropriate" Zahra's voice increasingly burdensome to hold back the cry.
"I know how you feel, Ra. Happiness in your hands, I always support whatever decision you make"

"Ommy... Tau no Mi, Maryam who has a bookstore in town B will visit here" explained Nahla enthusiastically.
"You'll see you"
"Ih it's not like that. But he came to see his grandfather who was seriously ill"
"..."
"Make him come home" Zahra said.
"Yes, Mi".
A week later Hasan and his son Maryam arrived in the town of P, both of whom went straight to Maryam's grandfather's boarding school. KH.Abdul Hamid was lying sick, he was treated at his residence in the cottage complex because he did not want to go to hospital.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Kek" said Maryam sadly.
"Wa Alaikum greetings, Thank God you have come. Thank you son" said Ustadz Hamid lirih.
"Grandfather, sorry Maryam who just looked at Grandpa. Grandpa healed quickly".
"Yes, Sir. I'm sorry Hasan just got here to see Father" he continued.
"It's okay. You come now, Grandpa is grateful to be able to gather again".

Everyone will surely return to Allah when he dies, but the happy one is the one who is close to Allah during his life. – Sayyid Qutb
Three days have Ustadz Hamid, the leader of the boarding school that has stood for 20 years, left this mortal world.
"Bi, are we going to live again in this city like Grandpa's last wish" asked Maryam expectantly.
Maryam was hoping to stay here because Maryam wanted to go to school instead of public school. But all decisions are in the hands of Abinya.
"Abi still doesn't know. There's also Grandpa and grandma need us"
"Yes too, Bi. But Maryam wants to go here"
"If you really want and like, Abi try to Nak. Let Abi go back and forth once a month to your grandma and grandpa there"
"Alhamdulillah. Thanks Abi, Abi is the best".
Maryam POV
I promised I'd see Nahla if I was here. But because of the condition of Grandpa so not able to. Now that Grandpa's dead, I forgot to call Nahla again.
Want to ask for the address just let me come directly to meet his ummi.

"Assalamu'alaikum" said someone from behind the door.
"Wa Alaikum salam. Please come in" replied Fahri
"God Hasan, this is really you. Wherever all this time, lost swallowed by the earth" continued Fahri enthusiastically see his best friend finally appeared before him.
"Yes Ri, all this time I've been with my son living in B town and my parents are there"
"Ten years you've been missing. What brings you back here"
"Sarah's father died three days ago, we've been here a week. And the plan is to stay here, because Maryam likes school in her grandfather's cottage"
"Innalilahi wa Inna ilaihi Raji. How are you guys" asked Fahri
"Thank God we're good, Daddy's mom too. How do you do it yourself, aunt om good right"
"Alright, Alhamdulillah. Zahra also lives here"
"here... Why dr. Duty out of town"
"You don't know, Dimas died ten years ago"
