The Love Behind The Play

Episode 05 (Revision )

Finish dinner Alifa and her family relax in the living room while watching tv .

Alifa sat beside her bunda while leaning her head on Rita's shoulder spoiled .

" Lif, Hafiz's dad came to his office this afternoon, and he said after you graduated school he wanted you and Hafiz to have your wedding soon ." Riko Sayings .

" Parent continues to agree ." Ask Alifa .

" Of course I agree, anyway it's been a while. You guys got engaged ."

" But yeah.what's not too soon, besides kak hafiz hasn't come home from his job ."

" One more month Hafiz will be home from his place of duty and at that time you may also have finished the end of the semester, so what's wrong if you get married soon ."

" Sighs long, Dad....

I would still want to lecture while mondok, I also want to deepen my religious knowledge like Kak Fardan ." Say Alifa with glazed eyes - glass .

Because honestly he really wants to deepen his religious knowledge in pesantren and he also wants to know what it is like to live in a pesantren environment . It must have been fun, he thought .

" Dear..even though you are married you can still lecture, I'm sure Hafiz must have evangelized it, yes... although it does not have to be kuliyah while mondok but at least you can still continue your study ."

" I'm going to go to the room first, tired of taking a break ." Pamit Alifa with eyes that are still glazed . He rushed to his room .

" But the lif..."

" Let me talk to him ." Fardan's words cut off his father's words .

" Sighs deeply, Alright." Reply briefly with a heavy tone of voice .

Fardan followed Alfah to his room .

Arriving in room , Alifa dropped her body violently in her bed, she buried her face in the pillow while crying for a hiccup .

To be honest Alifa is still not ready to marry even with the person she loves though .

" Why do I have to get married at the age of me who is still almost 18 years old, even though I want to. once belejar in pesantren ." Said Alifa in between her sobs .

" They're all selfish, they never think about my feelings ." Say it again .

Tok...

" Lif, may Brother Fardan enter ." Said Fardan who was standing in front of the door of Alifa's room .

" Go in, the door's not locked..." Said Alifa rather yelling, she immediately confirmed her position by sitting on her bed while leaning her body on the back of her bed , don't forget she wiped her tears 'cause she didn't want Fardan to know she was crying .

After getting permission from Alifa , Fardan rushed to open the door of Alifa's room .

Chequek...

fardan slowly turned the doorknob Alifa .

He found his sister sitting on her bed with her eyes moist.He walked over to Alfah and sat down on the edge of his bed .

" Lif, may I ask ."

" That includes the question, Brother ."

"Sighs long, I'm serious..."

" I'm also serious, indeed Brother Fardan wants what it is ."

" Are you still not ready to get married ???"

" Yes..to be honest I'm still not ready anyway brother, especially at my age is still too young ."

" Lif, no parent wants to see their child unhappy, every parent wants to see their child happy, so respect the father's decision , because before dad decides something he must first think about it carefully2, and maybe this is indeed the best way for you and Hafiz, especially after I know that Haikal is coming back to you ." Fardan paused for a moment .

" Remember Lif , we live in this world because it was created not create , therefore our life path is determined not determine , and God does not give us what we want but he gives us what is best, so whatever God decides to us is best for us ." Icap Fardan gives understanding to Alifa .

Kata2 fardan is able to make Alifa's heart touched and realized from his actions that sometimes life does not go according to our wishes .

" Bak Fardan is right, maybe this is indeed my destiny and inevitably I have to accept it ."

" Thank you, 'cause Brother Fardan has nasehatin me ." Alifa said while hugging Fardan and it made her aghast, immediately she released Alifa's embrace on her .

" Lif, I'm going to go to the room, yeah, I'm going to take a break ."With a quick step Fardan went to his room .

" Kat Fardan why the hell, how weird is that, why does he look dislike when I hug him , and in the end 2 he's kind of cold as me ." Alifa said wonder .

" Weird.... a moment soft, soon cold, what's wrong with her..???" Inner Alifa .

-----

In one third of the night Alifa awoke to perform tahajud prayers .

Slifa heard the voice of someone chanting the holy verse of the Quran from the next room, which was none other than the room Fardan which was next to the room Alifa . His sweet voice and eloquent reading can make the heart of anyone who is filled to hear it, including Alifa .

This has become a habit of Fardan when the mondok in the pesantren wake up in one third of the night to perform the tahajud sunah prayer after which he taught while waiting for the time of dawn prayer arrived .

And until now the habit is still he did even Alifa also follow the good habits of her brother .

" It's not wrong, this must be the voice of Kak Fardan who is teaching ." Saying Alifa with a smile .

He went straight to the bathroom to clean himself and then berwudlu and immediately perform prayers .

After teaching long enough, sound adzan reverberate .

After Alifa's morning prayers did not go back to sleep 'she decided to go to the kitchen to help her mother prepare breakfast .

After a long time they struggled with the equipment in the kitchen finally their cooking has been neatly arranged on the table .

" But finally breakfast is ready ." Say Alifa while staring at the food that has been arranged neatly on the table .

" Yes you should take a shower first gih, you should be ready2 to go to school ."

" Yes, if so, Alifa wants to go to the room first ."

" Yes, please wake up your two brothers ."

" Yes bun ." Alifa rushed to her room .

It didn't take long for Alifa to finish preparing . He rushed to the room next to his room . When Alifa wanted to knock on the door of Fardan's room at the same time the person inside the room also opened the door , both were surprised and their views met to make both of them silent for a while .

and without them knowing there was Ifan who was standing in front of his room, because the room of Ifan was also next to the room of Alifa .

Yes.. more precisely Alifa room is in the middle2 rooms Ifan and Fardan .

At first Ifan went out of the room to go to the dining room but just now he was out of the room he had already seen a rare sight .

"Ehem... " Ifan cleared his throat making both of them aware of his shock .

" Lif, you're doing it there ." Ask Ifan while walking towards them .

" I was going to wake up Mr. Fardan for breakfast, uh knowya Kak Fardan also woke up ."

" Ooo.. only Kak Fardan doang nih who want to take breakfast, I'm not ."

" I was also going to wake up Brother Ifan but the same Brother Ifan was also awake, yes we have breakfast yuk father same mother has been waiting for it from earlier ." Take Alifa .

He walked ahead of them as Alfa walked down the stairs until 2 his feet slipped and almost fell if Ifan had not caught him .

Their views meet .

But immediately Alifa shifted her gaze and justified her position .

" You don't have an elevator, or your leg hurts ." Ask Ifan to worry .

" No I'm fine 2 Brother, thank you for nolongin me earlier ."

" Sama2, after all it's the duty to be a brother to protect his sister, yes Kak.." said Ifan with a smile devil towards Fardan .

" Hemm." answered Fardan Cuek .

" Lif , you go first yes I still want to take my bag left in room ." Ifan Speaks .

" Oh yeah, I'm first ." Alifa left them both .

" Is there anything you want to talk to me about, until you look at me like that ." Said Ifan who understood the sharp gaze of his brother .

" What did you do earlier ." Fardan asked with a murderous look .

" You think..." Ifan is back .

" I told you that..." Not done yet Fardan spoke Ifan has cut it .

" Yes.I know what you mean by that conversation, and then what's up with what I saw earlier ." Speak Ifan with a gaze that is no less sharp .

" Hear yes my dear brother, I and you are the same, can even be said fate." continued Ifan .

In the dining room...

" Lif , how come you go down alone , where are your two brothers ." Riko asked as Alifa was already sitting in front of her .

" They're still behind well, maybe in a minute ."

" But they woke up, baby..." Ask Rita .

" Yee.. like2 I dong want old cake, want no, it's up to me ."

" Already - it's fast breakfast, cold hunt eat it ." Rita said by pouring water in an empty glass in front of Riko .
