SOUND FOR DILARA

CHAPTERS 20. KHUTBATUL HAJAT

"Ezra!"

"Sorry Pa, I was in a hurry to answer Rolex's call" he said pulling back the loose towel.

"Your habit if you have finished bathing instead of directly wearing clothes instead of hanging around, it is mandatory to marry you this .. let someone take care of this trivial problem .. hold a large project, you can ... when managing your own assets can't, shame on you Ezra!"

"Oh my goodness, Papa, doank dress business is complicated...."

"Get dressed, then breakfast and prepare a final stage check for everything" Emery said, leaving his eldest son's room.

"Dila, Dila, always Dila .. what special is the girl, it seems ordinary in my eyes," he muttered a little carelessly around who always thought the girl was perfect for him.

Ezra did not come to the two people who were still waiting for him. Until Mita could not bear to eat her breakfast menu first than she was weak due to hunger.

"Mba, get Ezra in the room" Emery asked one of their maids.

"Ga need Pa, I'm here," said Ezra approaching the dining table on which has been served various special menus.

"This is a food fix test for a banquet at the cottage later, just in the form of rice boxes of five hundred servings, Za ... if there is an excess, it will be distributed to the nearest orphanage, how?" Emery asked for advice.

"Yes, so can ... I go straight home after the contract yes Pa," he said, taking some menus, moving them in his open plate.

"You how the hell, your wife there yes you also follow him .. take care of the Ruhama treatment administration first before bringing Dila to live here," said the father.

"Me, sleeping there?" Ezra.

"Sister, Dila's room is beautiful, comfortable anyway .. know for yourself, even though the old-school house is very clean," added Mita while chewing her food.

"That's it, but it's me."

Uh, hold Ezra down lest Papa find out.

"Good, Pa."

After breakfast, he and his father again saw all the preparations they would bring as a delivery.

One suitcase contained Ezra's clothes, five shipping boxes excluding a dowry containing a set of jewelry, prayer supplies, a robe set, clutches and shoes, skincare and toiletries. All are products that Dila used based on the results of Mita's observations while at her home some time ago also reinforced by Velma's search.

Emery suggested not to bring too much shipping, the important thing is that the contents are in accordance with Dila's daily life.

Clothes and others are only symbolic because one's taste is not the same, Emery does not have much time to prepare this especially Dila said that he did not ask even to beg, begging, it means that the girl only accepts what she is given.

Dilara Residence.

In contrast to the busyness that occurred in the El Qavi Mansion, the condition of the old house is just a simple building, today it does not feel the difference, as quiet as usual.

Neighbors who came just to greet Ruhama, not how long they also left the residence.

Dila just sat quietly in one of the teak chairs of the living room, accompanied by Velma who was equally confused with him until both of them dissolved in an atmosphere of silence that was accidentally created.

Highlight the eyes of the girl looked in the distance, across the courtyard of her house towards a wide expanse of rice fields stretching out in front of her. The difficult gaze Velma described, there was voidness, longing and confusion clearly on her father's face. His fingers were clenched above his lap.

The girl slowly got up from her seat, she was now standing at the door, bowing her face, sighing deeply, drawn from the rough shoulder movement of the forced diaphragm.

My time is only a few hours away but I still haven't given me my blessing. Is not Mother's blessing the blessing of God?

No exception Dila, Ruhama was busy arranging his heart. Want to feel like he rejected Ezra but he returned to look, who am I? although he took care of her but still not ruling the fate line of his daughter.

Who knows, Dila will find her family when she is with Ezra. This means that the Ruhama will be forgotten by Dila. The dwarf thoughts that haunted his mind lately, managed to damage the good relationship between him and Dila.

While in the pesantren.

Ustadz Zaky who just got news from the santri khidmah around the residence of Kyai Sa'id, that Dila will hold a marriage contract ba'da maghrib later with a widower businessman El Qavi was surprised.

Because he was several days looking for the existence of the girl, he seemed to lose seeing her around the boarding school.

Dila, I'm late as it turns out. I thought I was just sympathetic to you, but in fact my sense of loss led to a phrase commonly called Love.

May you be happy with your choice, Dila. I'm sorry I was insensitive early.

Ustadz Zaky chose to step aside, not wanting to intersect further with the event tonight, there is already a committee that takes care, he thought. Let the feeling he has just grown press down, it may slowly disappear by itself or be replaced by a new taste.

The Maghrib.

The family entourage of the two bride-to-be has been present despite being separated from the room.

Dila was only accompanied by Ruhama who was still faithful to lock his mouth tightly as if his lip padlock could not be opened.

Mahira, Yai Sa'id's youngest daughter who put on makeup Dila was amazed by the natural beauty her best friend exuded.

"Dila, very beautiful," she whispered excited though Dila did not hear but the girl smiled shyly to get Mahira's praise.

The wedding sermon was delivered by Yai Sa'id.

"In the epistle of Annisa verse one, that Allah has created a being with each of his spouses. No one in this world has been created alone unless God has destined him to be a partner who will accompany him."

"The husband and wife couple should be able to condition the household into a safe household. Both have the same responsibility to realize a prosperous, peaceful, and loving household for the residents and members in it."

Ezra listened intently to what Yai Sa'id said despite his heart breaking. The law of marriage for him falls on the sunnah, not worried about adultery and being able to support and take responsibility for the life of Dila, his future wife.

Can I do it?

As Kyai Sa'id recited the khutbatul hajat, marked by the attendant's raised hands, Dila offered a prayer in his heart.

Make my business easy, O Robb, keep my heart in order to remain devoted to Mother, soften the hearts of Bang Ezra and Mother to me and have mercy on our family.

I ask Thee, the Almighty, the Ridhoi of my steps, take care of Mother, I leave You because Thou art the best keeper of trust. Aamiins.

"Aamiin allahumma aamiin." The audience accepted the prayer that Yai Sa'id said.

Shortly after, a voice sounded.

" ... bismillah...."
