SOLD ON THE FIRST NIGHT

chapter 49. GO AWAYL

Seeing Shalu cry a hiccuping Star felt unbearable and put pity, the same thing with Julian, he was also sad to see Shalu crying like that, she said, although he did not know much about the story of Shalu but his heart also hurt to witness it.

"So the place you're going to visit is the place of his brother Shalu bah?" ask Syfa a little surprised.

As with Bintang and Julian, Bintang did not expect that the place he would visit was the place of origin of Shalu, it was fitting that his brother asked them to come home by inviting Shalu, he said, maybe his brother wants Shalu to know.

"Yes the place of Syalu's hometown, even the mosque that will be the place of your brother's Tausiyah is so close to the house of the son of Shalu, is it so son?" Kiyai Somad asked Syalu.

"Wait!!!why did Abah know that my place was close to the house of Shalu? ask the confused star.

The Star question was only responded by Kiyai Somad with a smile, he did not immediately answer so Julian was also curious about it.

"Well, why did Abah know?"Julian said curiously.

"Actually the village of Shalu can be said not too small and also not too big but the population is so dense and crowded, well there it's just one has a big mosque huh it's Ar-Rahman mosque." Kiyai Somad a little.

"Wait!!! yes if it's not wrong this morning who called Lian said also the truth that the event was at the Ar-Rahman mosque." Answer Julian Spontan.

"Is that right, Shalu? is there a mosque called Ar-Rahman?" ask Syfa curiously.

Shalu simply answered Syfa's question with a nod while her tears continued to flow.

"In the village it only has one mosque that is Ar-Rahman, in other places there is also a place of worship that musholah was a considerable distance can be said to be the place next door."Kiyai Somad said.

Seeing Shalu who never stopped crying, Umm Salmah also approached her and memorized her tears. While Bintang secretly glanced at Syalu but his gaze immediately switched when kiyai Somad said something.

"Say something, son, maybe there's one thing you want, right?" ask Kiyai Somad.

"Say Shalu!while you have a chance hum!!" Umm Salmah assured.

Shalu nodded in understanding with the words that Umm Salmah meant, he also tried to speak even though stammering.

"Bah...Shah...Yes.lu would love to pu.lang, but Shalu is afraid." Say Shalu a hiccup.

When Kiyai Somad smiled, it was true that his assumption that Syalu missed his parents very much, but there was one thing that made him survive not to return, could be his fear and trauma.

"That's what you mean, son, that's why you asked the four of you to go home, you want us to discuss this."Kiyai Somad.

" Do you mean Abah?"ask Syfa not understand.

"When Abah knew from Ustadz Alvi about the offer of Tausiyah in W village, Abah so remembered with the village of Shalu because at that time Syalu had the origin story of his residence, his home, then Abah find out about the address of his Tausiyah place, it turns out Ar-Rahman mosque, well there Abah just remembered that in W village had a little friend named Sudin, his name is Sudin, but if it's not wrong that people there call her Abah Sudin, maybe Shalu wants to know her?" ask Kiyai Somad to Shalu.

Kiyai Somad smiled happily, he remembered very well about his best friend, who said Syalu was right, he was not a class of people who could not afford it, indeed, he had always intended that if he had retired from his work he would devote himself as the marbot of the house of God until the end of his life.

Syfa, Bintang and Julian still seem confused except Ummi Salmah because he already knows his story from the husband, maybe this all seems just a coincidence or indeed has become the destiny of God.

"You're right, son, that's how my little friend was, Abah had not seen her for a long time, the last time was a ten-year-old star, while now he is twenty-eight years old, but even though we have not met thank God we still communicate by phone." Kiyai Somad.

"Abah.sepah Syalu really want to come home even though just see the parents of Shalu from a distance, but his sense of Shalu is not able, yet, afraid that they realize the existence of Shalu and still force Syalu to return to Rico." Saying Shalu with a sad face.

"Actually I understand what you're afraid of, but remember they're still your parents, Abah believes they're not that cruel and should force you back on that irresponsible man."Kiyai Somad.

"What should Shalu do bah? honestly Shalu was traumatized, Shalu missed them but this fear overcame everything."Say Shalu with sobs.

Seeing that, of course, Ummi Salmah became heartless and immediately embraced Shalu to calm the girl.

"Istighfar, son, do not let anger control you." Ummi Salmah.

"Where if Shalu's brother wears a temporary veil, so Syalu can go home without worry, and they will not recognize the brother, so they will not recognize the brother, Syfa's sure if you meet them they won't know it's brother." Suddenly an idea came from Syfa.

"It seems like a good solution, so you don't have to worry if you meet your parents, because they won't realize that it's you Shalu."Julian's remarks confirmed Syfa's idea.

"So that means we're both going?"ask the stars a little confused.

" That's why my brother wants to go together with Shalu's sister."Syfa giggles.

"Yes, it's not the mukhrim...!!!" sulk Julian.

"Is... You guys, su'udzon just be people." Answer the sewot Star.

"They are right Stars, there is no way Abah will let you go just two, you do not want to be slandered later, for that you are telling the four of you to go home, for that, because I know Shalu must have wanted to go home to see both of his parents." Kiyai Somad.

"So that means Syfa and Julian's brother are also in the Bah?" ask Syfa on her brother.

"Yes, you two have to come along, so Lian as long as you can accompany Bintang, and Syfa you can accompany Syalu there." Kiyai Somad.

"Well." Said Shalu with a pushy look.

"Go son!!! cure your longing for your parents, and make sure that they are okay, if you really want to go home and stay there it's okay, too, but if indeed you still want to study and live here, then this house and boarding school will always be open to you."Kiyai said affectionately.

As soon as the atmosphere became haru, Syalu was very grateful to have been met with a very good and loving family like the big family of kiyai Somad.
