The Chosen Heart Part 2

Incidents on Hari Raya

Fitri day, flocked Muslims come to the mosque to perform Eid al-Fitr circumcision prayer. The sound of takbir is still reverberating, echoing to the corners of the country.

Isna, Dani, father, mother, and Wahid are among the group of humans who are preparing to perform the Id prayer.

Isna's mouth did not stop singing takbir. Unknowingly, Isna's tears welled up. Allahu Akbar, Allah is Great. He felt small before God, helpless, without strength, only able to beg and prostrate so that he would always be given the strength of patience to face a life that is sometimes not as beautiful as hope.

When the notification came that the Id prayer was about to begin, the whole congregation stood up, and closed the prayer.

Same with Anna and mom.

The morning sun had begun to show his smile, watching the rows of people lined up neatly, facing the same direction, with the same intention, worshiping Allah, completing the worship at the end of Ramadan.

The prayer of two rakaats, with seven takbir times in the first rakaat, and five takbir times in the second rakaat, was finally completed. Continue by listening to the sermon of the preacher.

The Eid Al-Fitr Day that Isna is celebrating this time is her first Feast Day with the status of wife and daughter-in-law. If he usually only sungkem as a child, at this time he will also ask ridho and sorry to his husband and in-laws.

Therefore, after his return from the Id prayer Isna hasten to apologize to his family, to his mother, father, brother, and husband. His intention was to immediately visit his in-laws, because according to Anne's agenda, his in-laws would fly to Surabaya at one noon.

" We'll eat yu first?" take your mother to another family member.

" Hayu ah, this belly is already charging, ask to be filled." Wahid welcomed enthusiastically.

Mama has arranged the dishes on the table.

" Mommy cooks a lot of food too." Dani commented, looking at the food in question where.

" Because the father's brother and nephew will gather here. Our big family tradition." Isna gave an answer.

Dani answered again. " Oh, so."

Sure enough, not to mention the Isna family enjoying the Lebaran meal, came the nephews and brothers of the father.

There was a scene of greetings, apologizing to each other, and forgiving.

" Just go inside, eat ketupat," Mama invited the guests to eat.

Some of Isna's young nieces are busy researching the jars of cakes, intending to eat cakes that interest her.

After all the guests enjoy the dishes presented, it is the turn of the host who takes the food.

Dani invites Isna to sit on the back porch, enjoying the colorful flowers and leaves from the trees that are the work of the father.

Enjoy food in silence. Isna refused to speak. It seemed like there was still an unease that he kept in his heart.

" Neng," call Dani.

Isna looked only at a glance, and smiled faintly without saying anything.

" Don't talk to Aa yet?" Dani is still trying to ask, hoping Isna will answer.

" Later, if there's anything to talk about."

" It has to be 'if there's anything to talk about', just want to talk?"

Again, Isna did not answer.

Isna and Dani have forgiven each other.

Still, Isna did not want to talk to her husband. More precisely Isna wanted her husband to realize his mistake that was too deep to make Isna feel no longer as calm as before.

Dani was finally quiet. Enjoy the food without sound.

After eating, according to the original plan, Dani and Isna will visit the house of Father and Mother.

Father and mother could not come, because their house was crowded with guests.

Dani and Isna arrive at the Prasetyo family residence, just as Father is coming.

Dani and Isna said hello. Father returned their greetings.

" Where's dad from?" Dani asked.

" From Mr. Ustadz's house."

Three of them stepped into the house. In the living room, there are already Pri and Mas Arif.

Alternately Isna greeted Mbak Pri and Arif. And so did Dani.

" Eat the ketupat, mas." Isna offered Arif, because she knew, Arif would not have provided ketupat in his boarding house.

" Already, Tea. Just now."

Mother out, approaching her guests.

" Mother, forgive Isna huh?" Isna approached Anne, kissing her hand.

" The same, honey. Mother also asks to be forgiven, right?" Mother kissed Isna's cheek, right and left.

Dani again followed what Isna did, kissed the back of the hand of the woman who had given birth and raised him, with full force.

Mother rubbed Dani's head.

" Eat yuk, "Mother holds Isna's hand, invites her to the dining room.

" Well... Mother is cooking. Nobody's gonna eat, the mother's gonna go."

" Said, Arif mom asked to take care of the house."

" Yes, it is."

" Yes already, later let the Arif mas who spent the food that you have cooked."

Arif glanced at Isna, at the same time Isna was also glancing at Arif with a smile.

" Are you right, Mas? Or if it is still not finished also bring it to the headquarters. It's over."

Arif smiled as well. " Ta Isna just know."

" Yes it is."

Isna called Dani's place to gather with her village friends as Headquarters. The name that makes Arif always wants to smile.

" Dad went to Surabaya, right ?" Dani asked mom.

" Follow. "

" Nice, bund."

Mommy smiled as she patted Dani's cheek.

" Later, before your zuhur take Mother to the airport huh?"

" What time is the plane, Bund ?"

" The clock."

Long story short, finished delivering Father and Mother to the airport Dani intends to go home. Previously, they took the time to pray dzuhur first at the home of the mother, Dani, Isna, Mbak Pri and Arif

" Ang Arif, I'm home, right? Titip this house." Dani says goodbye to Arif.

" Yes to Dani. God willing I take care of this house."

" Thank you?"

Dani, Isna and Mbak Pri board Dani's car. Just now Dani was about to get his car out of the yard suddenly came a shocking sound that sounded very loud. Sound of a loud object.

" Brackk !!"

Mr. Satpam was seen rushing out of his post, out of the gate, about to see what happened.

Same with Dani. He came down immediately, as impressed as the security guard had been. Isna also got out of the car. tailed behind Dani.

When he got outside the courtyard the view that Isna saw was a luxury sedan car under the power pole, with a bent electric pole, it looks like the car just hit the bottom of the pole. The hood of the car is dented.

" Subhanallah." Isna wanted to get closer, but Dani prevented, with a hand holding Isna's step.

Isna complied and retreated, although somewhat astonished, why he was forbidden to approach.

Dani approached the car, following Satpam's father who had been next to the car.

Isna watched from afar the efforts of her husband and the security guard to open the car door and remove the driver from the car.

Some people who happened to be around helped.

After the car door was successfully opened, the security guard removed a person from the driver's seat, unconscious.

And how surprised Isna when she saw the victim of the single accident they helped was a beautiful woman whose face was familiar to Isna.

" Anindita?"

Feeling doubtful about his own vision, Isna stepped closer to the car that hit the power pole. When he was close to the fainted victim, Isna was increasingly convinced that it was indeed Anindita.

Isna looked at Dani, who was coincidentally looking at Isna as well.

Difficult situation. Dani chose to step aside, not involved in helping the victim of the accident who turned out to be Anin. But Mr. Satpam even called Dani.

" So, is this the victim going to flap?"

Dani couldn't answer right away.

Arif who just came out immediately approached the security guard. " Take him to the hospital. The victim's hurt."

" Mister Dani? " The security guard was confused, who would take the beautiful woman to the hospital?

" Neng, can Aa take Anin to the hospital? If Arif is the one who brought it, I'm sorry if I have to pay for his administration."

Isna thought fast. Anin was injured, had to be taken to the hospital. And the only one who's allowed to take him is Dani.

" Please take Anin to the hospital. I'm coming with."
