The Light of Love Salma

The Story of Kafa

"When she was the daughter of Ummi's friend, she was left here because she was too bad by her parents, everything was going as it should, Nabila slowly changed and started to get close to Kafa, at first Ummi was silent and agreed to the relationship of the two even Ummi and Abah had planned a wedding and betrothed Nabila with Kafa," Ummi lowered his head miserably while breathing in as much air as possible then took it out slowly as if gathering strength to go back to telling stories.

"But Ummi cancelled it," continued Ummi.

"Why is it canceled, Ummi?" tanya Salma more enthusiastic to hear the story Ummi.

"At that time Ummi accidentally saw Nabila together with a man who Ummi had never seen before, at first Ummi thought that he was Nabila's brother, Nabila, until Ummi heard heart-wrenching words that Ummi should not have heard," Ummi replied telling him what had happened.

"What words, Ummi?" Salma is increasingly curious about the continuation of the Ummi story that is more exciting after being listened to.

"The man turned out to be Nabila's lover, and how shocked Ummi was when he heard that Salma was married to Kafa just wanted to enjoy what my son had, he said, Nabila intends to use Kafa to facilitate and meet the needs of Nabila and the man, and Ummi again surprised when he found out if Nabila had children who were being foster by him." Ummi told me everything that happened to Salma.

Salma was astonished and could only remain silent when he heard the story of Ummi, what a very lost girl, seeing the kindness of Ummi and Abah made anyone feel calm near the two.

"Once, Kafa was a very good son, obedient and loving, he was so considerate to everyone, he said gently to calm the heart, but after Ummi decided to cancel her wedding plans with Nabila, she said, Kafa turns into a child who is brutal and dissident, his gentle demeanor goes out of nowhere, he goes to a new place with the excuse of wanting to forget all the pain he feels, he goes to a new place, his attitude turned cold and serene, as well as his habits and associations, indeed Kafa changed one hundred and eighty degrees," Ummi told the story of Kafa with tears that began to drip slowly.

"Propay Ummi, everyone must have a test that they must pass, I believe Ummi can pass everything with patience and sincerity," salna said while holding Ummi's hand on top of the album.

"Ummi really hope you can help Ummi to change Kafa back, Ummi is sure if the softness and patience you have can melt the hard heart of Kafa at this time," Ummi said to make Salma back silent, salma is not ready to get married for now.

Salma who heard Ummi's words could only remain silent and bow without being able to answer.

"You take it easy, Ummi does not ask you to answer now, Ummi just wants to tell you what really happened to you, because Ummi hopes you can consider everything" he continued.

"Thank you" Salma said, looking into Ummi's eyes.

"Thank you for what?" ummi asked with a confused expression clearly drawn on her face.

"Thank you, because Ummi was so understanding to me," Salma replied with a sweet smile that was now visible on her face.

"Ummi should thank you for not directly rejecting Ummi's request, and you still want to consider it," said Ummi while rubbing the back of Salma's hand trying to channel all the affection that Ummi has for Salma.

"Ummi was indeed a dream mother, a wingless angel whom God purposely met with me who had this kara, I was very grateful to be able to meet Ummi," said Salma while hugging Ummi with tears that had dripped.

Salma felt that Ummi was the successor to her mother who had gone to follow her father to heaven, leaving her alone without a brother, the only child Salma Mother and the Father came from a far enough city, it took a day and night to reach the hometown of the late father of Salma, because that is Salma a kara without brothers or parents.

"And you are the angel of heaven that Ummi found, hopefully the angel who is currently embracing Ummi is the soul mate of the son of Ummi who will lead him back to the right path" said Ummi.

The two smiled after hugging, clearly visible on their faces a sense of gratitude that was in each other's hearts.

The sound of the adhan reverberating indicates that when the dzuhur prayer time has arrived, Ummi and Salma are silent to listen and obey every sentence said by muezzin then say do'a finished adhan.

"Special at this time we are both pilgrims, Salma" said Ummi.

"Okay, Ummi, but Salma went to the room first to take the face." Pamit Salma's.

The two pray together in mushollah ndalem, in the house of Ummi there is a small mushollah that is deliberately provided for himself and Ummi pray at midnight.

"Salma!" call Ummi shortly after the prayer is over.

"Yes, Ummi," said Salma stopped his activities folding face and turned his head towards Ummi who was still faithfully sitting on the prayer mat.

"You call Dance after this! take him to the kitchen to help Ummi cook dinner later." Tell Ummi.

"Well, Ummi," Salma obeyed all that Ummi had ordered, she walked towards the room after finishing the face she had just worn.

"Dance!" call Salma.

At the moment Tari is busy chatting with Mbak Ratna their room chairman, the personality of the relaxed Dance makes him easily familiar with other students.

"What?" sahut Dance.

"You are called Ummi" Salma replied.

"Called on? what's the matter?" sahut Tari without moving a bit from his position.

"You are told to help cook for a temporary malem," explained Salma.

"Oh, cook, are you coming?" instead of immediately standing up to Salma, Dance continued to ask.

"Isshh nih son asked a lot, yes, I come too! don't ask mulu!" Salma was a little anxious to see the response of Dance which he thought was melting.

"Come on!" sahut Tari walked closer to Salma after grabbing the veil that was just lying on a pillow that was stacked neatly next to where he was sitting.

The two walked together to the kitchen of Ummi's house with the intention of helping Ummi cook according to what was ordered by Ummi.

"Assalamualaikum" said the two almost simultaneously.

"Waalaikum salam" said Ummi.

"Come in!" continued.

"What are we cooking today Ummi?" tanya Dance directly at its core without a stale base.

"Today we cook soto ayam kampung sama tempe goreng," replied Ummi.

All three cook with a smile that never fade, even sometimes the sound of laughter sounds so happy. The loneliness that had accompanied Ummi seemed to disappear when he was with Tari and Salma.
