The Love Story of Children Santri

Chapter 27 - Joseph's Request

Eve's arrival made a scene in the room. Of course Aisha, Asiyah, and Minah were very happy for Eve to return. They were all shocked and immediately embraced Eve. 

"Assalamualaik." 

"Vaalaikumsalam. Eve!" 

"Accusingly, could not one-on-one hug him," protested Eve whose body felt stuffy because in the hug of the three friends. 

"Laughter, we're so kangen. There are no quiet rooms," said Minah.

"Tumbens. Am I not a bummer? The proof during my time here many do not like me." Eve's eyes glared at Minah.

"Let's not talk about that anymore." Minah is offended. However, it suddenly embraced his body and smiled.

"I'm kidding. So yes, now you don't hate me anymore." 

"Yes yes or our fellow Muslims should not hate each other is a sin" said Aisyah. 

Eve rolled her eyes lazily. When he heard his friend's talk. However, that is precisely what makes Eve feel at home. 

Unlike his friends in the city, they instead took him to a perverted path. Sherly and Mira are considered best friends but not after the incident at the cafe. As they leave Hawa alone with Gio, and are infuriated by her brother. 

Gio, lekaki who is idolized in his school. All the students admired her including Eve. Apparently the handsome, tall, cool, basketball whiz and smart, how Eve is not interested. 

But after the meeting, Eve finds out Gio's bad side, which turns out to be arrogant to be nothing more than a coercive. Touching her body without permission and humiliating her as a woman. 

But not with Santri here. Eve could see Adam, and Adam never looked away. Even when he was wrong, Adam never touched his body, just by a book Adam hit his hand without touching. 

Eve compared Gio to Adam. 

"Laughter! Eve!" the screams of her three friends surprised Eve. It turns out that Eve dissolved in daydreams. Adam and Gio. 

"Why are you daydreaming Wa?" 

"It's okay to just be tired. I'm gonna go to bed for a second." 

"Eits .. can't." Hold her three friends when Eve wants to land her body on her bed. 

"Why?" ask Eve upset. 

"Magrib soon. We're ready to go to the mosque." 

"Huh." Eve breathed her rough. This is what makes him lazy and unsettled. Little worship and continued worship there was no time for him to relax. 

"Come on Wa." 

"Yes" answered Eve. 

'Eve sisp-get ready. There would be no time to relax her inner self who stepped lazily out of her room.

"Son Joseph wants to go home? Soon the magrib would be better off staying over," said Adam, who was walking with Joseph late in the afternoon, around the cottage.

"Maybe I'm out of work Dam, because tomorrow I have to go back to work." 

"It's not easy being the backbone of the family. Now Joseph's brother besides being a brother must also be a father to Eve. You have to take care of the two most loved women. But Adam was sure Joseph's brother could." 

"Either Dam, God willing I will try." 

"O yes Adam, if you may know if you already have a future wife? Sorry if I was sassy. I've heard it said you've been betrothed to santri here." 

"Where does Brother Yusuf know?" 

"Yes, is." 

Adam still had a calm face. His gaze stared at the focus on the santri men who were about to go towards the mosque. 

Actually Adam is lazy to bring up the problem with Asthma, but for the sake of keeping from slander better Adam tell the truth. 

"You mean to refuse?" 

"Maybe more precisely we are not a match. Yeah, I hope he gets a good guy more than me." 

Joseph was silent, for some reason Joseph suddenly asked that question. Is it just a conversation or is there some other purpose.

"Adam can I know who the woman who appeared in your dream is?" 

Adam looked at her, looking at her in confusion. Adam suddenly smiled.

"Oh, this brother of Joseph I feel in the interrogation."

"It's okay to interrogate a candidate-in-law." 

"What?" 

Joseph immediately shut his mouth. What'd he say? Why did he say that, but it seemed Adam heard his words clearly. 

"Adam can we talk there!" point Joseph to a chair in the middle of the garden. "I want to talk seriously, it's uncomfortable to stand like this." 

They stepped onto the chair, then sat side by side. Adam's heart was suddenly agitated, while Joseph was suddenly nervous. 

"What do you want to say, brother Joseph?" ask Adam. Joseph is still seen regulating the breath to relieve his nervousness. Before I finally said,

"Adam ... If I ask you to be my sister-in-law do you want to?" 

"meaning?" 

"I'd like to propose to you for my sister. Will you marry my sister Hawa Aqila Putri?" 

Deg, man, 

Adam's heart was beating faster. The eyeballs were rounded without blinking. Is it not wrong for Adam to hear? If Joseph proposed to her for Eve. 

For the woman who had been upsetting Adam. Santri was the most mischievous, bar-barous, and dissident. Could it be that woman who will be his wife. 

"As a sister I was afraid of not being able to look after my sister. And I believe I am the right person who can be a priest to my sister Eve. Not only guarding and protecting her, you can also educate Eve on the right path. There is no man I trust but you Adam. And we've known you for a very long time and so have your Aby and Ummi." 

Adam was stunned, unable to say anything his lips felt faint. 

"I'm not asking you to answer it now. You can perform Istikhoroh prayers as a clue to the answer to my request. Eve is not a good and perfect girl, but you can perfect her life and make her ethics better. You can lead him to Jannah (Heaven )." 

"God willing but I can't give you an answer for now." 

"It's okay you can do istikhoroh over and over again." Joseph rubbed his shoulders gently. 

Adzan's voice is resounding. It sounded so sweet to call the servants of God to his house. Adam and Eve flocked to this glorious and holy place. 

The men are ready with komo clothes and the sheath does not forget various kinds of peci as head coverings. 

Likewise with women who are neatly wearing colorful mukena is very beautiful and beautiful creation of your God. 

Eagerly they took ablution water, spread out the prayer mats on a shiny and clean marble floor. With a neat and lined shaf facing the qibla. 

Joseph and Adam also stopped their conversation to pray together first. 

"Our magrib has prayed first Brother Yusuf," asked Adam calmly despite actually feeling awkward. 

"Yes, come" replied Joseph. Then the two of them stepped together towards the mosque.

...----------------...

Did Adam accept it?

Let's wait for the result of Adam's isthoroh.
