Tasbih Love Arumi

Chapters. 24 Gratitude

Late in the evening, after the Maghrib prayer, Arif told Aisyah that he would go to the mosque. Yes, if the Maghrib prayer itself will perform at home along with Aisyah.

"Aisha, I want to go to the mosque. You want to come now or what?" ask him to Asiyah.

"I'll catch up later, Mom. You go first."

Arif rushed to his room to get something. He came out with a paper bag, of course Aisyah knew what it was.

"You want to give that to Arumi now?"

"Yes, are you the only one who wants to give it to me?"

Aisyah shook her head, she knew that Arif would want to say something to Arumi. More precisely want to advise the girl in order to look more closed. After preparing, Arif began to step from his home.

Arriving in the courtyard of Arumi's house, he saw the girl sitting in front of the terrace. It was an opportunity for Arif to give him what he is carrying at the moment.

"Assalamualaikum" said Arif

"Waalaikumsalam," Arumi stood up from her seat. "Sister Arif, tumben's here. What's up?"

"Arumi, I want to give this to you" he said as he offered the paper bag.

"What is this, brother?" ask Arumi marketing.

"Me and Aisyah tomorrow will have a small thanksgiving for pregnancy and I am accepted to teach at the city university B. I invited you in specifically and put on that shirt. Arumi, I brought you to this place, so I have to take responsibility for everything you have. I just want you to look polite because tomorrow there will be many citizens who come, even my parents are also Asiyah's parents attended."

Arumi clearly understood what Arif said, the man wanted him to appear closed and just like the others so as not to be a talking material. What a concern for Arif that makes Arumi even more admiring.

"I'll take the time to come to your show, brother. Anyway, tomorrow's Sunday and I'm off work."

"All right, we're waiting for your arrival. Assalamualaikum,"

"Getishalight." Arumi stared at Arif's departure.

He glanced at the paper bag he had in his hand and brought it inside the house. After being in the room, he saw what clothes Arif and Aisyah bought for him. Instantly the girl's eyes became pushy, she was moved by what she saw at this moment.

A long white robe plus Payet on his chest, and a black hijab that is very suitable combined with the shirt. Arumi feels guilty if she remembers her past, but everything has happened and just think of it as a lesson for her to get better.

There was a letter there, he looked at the letter and started reading it.

'Wear that shirt, Arumi. Aisyah and I agreed to buy you the same clothes as our families. The two of us already considered you as our own sister.' the contents of the letter and in response to a bland smile by Arumi.

''He only thinks of me as a sister? I think it's different." Arumi was silent for a moment and then accidentally stopped his eyes on the prayer mat, face and prayer beads. "Astaghfirullah, what do you think Arumi? Don't be a barrier between Arif and his wife. They've been very kind to you, and you have so much to owe them. Stop your bad thoughts and don't expect anything!" he continued to wake himself up.

He heard the voice of the Adhan and began to prepare to go tarawih to the mosque.

Next day.

Arumi is ready, she looks very beautiful by wearing a gown from Arif. Even her face was glowing when she wore a hijab to cover her aura. He smiled looking at his reflection in the mirror.

''It turns out that I'm more beautiful if I wear a hijab like this" he said smiling happily.

He re-imagined the appearance and when it was finished, he went out of the room with a long wallet and also a paper bag to give to Aisyah.

Arumi walked towards Arif's house, it turned out that there were some mothers and girls who had just left.

"Good morning, everybody. Assalamualaikum," said Arumi to all of them.

The four women stopped their steps and turned to the origin of the voice. The four were shocked and amazed to see Arumi's appearance that was different today.

"Well, Arum is beautiful" said the seventeen-year-old girl.

"You want to go to Arif's house too, son? Come on, let's walk together." hail Mother Chaca.

Arumi nodded and they walked over while having a small talk.

A few minutes later, they arrived at Arif's house. There are a lot of people there, both men and women. Looks like Arif really held a pretty big thanksgiving. In fact, there is a bus parked there with the Orphanage of Love.

"Come, Arumi!" take Chaca's mother to Arumi who just daydream.

They entered the house with greetings. Arriving inside, Arumi saw Aisyah and she immediately approached her.

"Sir Aisyah" he said when he was near Aisyah who was chatting with relatives at the time.

"Arumi, have you come?" Aisyah smiled kindly. "Well, you're so pretty wearing these clothes. In addition to your hijab that makes you more charming." praise Aisyah make the girl's face reddened.

"Mbak Aisyah could have," Arumi became misbehaved. He remembered that he had brought something for Aisha. "Sister, I brought this for you" he said, handing out the paper bag. Yes, as well as divert the topic of conversation.

"What'sthis? Jesus, Arumi. Why bother with everything?" aisyah said it was not good.

''No problem, Brother. I happen to have a payday and again it's not too expensive."

The two of them talk again, until the arrival of Arif and the parents stop the conversation. The parents were astonished to see that Aisyah was so with the girl in front of her, even they had looked like they were familiar for a long time.

Arif understands what his parents think, he has not told everything about Arumi who accidentally almost hit him.

"Dad, meet Arumi" Arif told his father.

The old man smiled kindly as well as Arumi.

"How are you, sir?" ask Arumi politely while kissing the reverent back of Attar's hand.

"Alhamdulillah, be healthy" replied Attar briefly.

Arumi turns to kiss the back of the hands of parents Aisyah and Umi Arif. After that, Arif began to tell what happened so that Aisyah could get that close to Arumi. The parents understood, they became Iba with the state of Arumi.

"Son, you can think of us as your parents. You must be very lonely, right?"

"Madam, I am never lonely because God is always with me. When I needed a place to pour out my grief, I remembered Allah and went straight to him in prayer. Then now, my life was never quieter because there was brother Arif and brother Asiyah. They were very kind and considered me to be like a family. We've only been friends for a few months."

"Thank God, son. So now, you can add another family member, Umi and Abi" said Arif's parents.

"Call me with Umi's call, and he's Dad" Umi said, pointing to Attar.

"Thank you, Umi." said Arumi thankfully, she was happy because the change in her brought comfort and calmness even though her life was not as luxurious as it used to be.

Likewise with Aisyah's parents, they are very welcome with the arrival of Arumi and also consider the girl like her own family.

From a distance, a smiling man looks at Arumi whose face is full of happiness.
