The Love Story of Children Santri

Chapter 4} The Coming of Adam

While the santri were doing picket, Eve, who was then in charge of sweeping the yard looking for an opportunity to find a gap in order to get away from the place. Both of his hands were busy holding a broomstick and serok, while his two eyes were staring at every corner of the cottage grounds.

Eve's sneaky smile, emanated when she saw a fence wall that was about 1.5 meters high. The fence is not so high. Eve, also plans to get out of there especially when seeing a fairly quiet pesantren environment, and all students are focused on doing pickets.

"It's time for me to run away, bodo very ah same bokap, here also I was made babu, the time must be hispu rich gini," ketus Eve, who is ready to act.

Eve, also saw the situation around, after looking safe, Eve began to launch the action. Starting from revealing his robe tie it above the waist, lucky to wear black trousers in it or commonly called lejing. Then Eve tied her veil back, so it wouldn't be too long. After the completion of Eve, began to climb by climbing the trunk of a guava tree that happened to grow near the fence, until Eve, was able to reach the top of the fence.

It was not the first time Eve had done so. Eve, already an expert in climbing because she often does it with Sherly and Mira, while running away from school. So for Eve, it was easy.

Eve, also smiled cunningly when looking at the streets below her. Until the moment will jump suddenly Eve's legs, slipped to make him fall.

"Akh, sick!" Eve, rubbing the part of her elbow that hurts because it hit the asphalt.

"Oh, because of this long shirt, I became slipped," grumbled Eve, because at that time Eve, stepped on the long part of her robe.

From the end of there is seen a taxi with license plate number B drove towards him. Suddenly the taxi stopped, and soon a handsome, sweet, calm and tall young man walked towards Eve, who was still sitting on the asphalt.

The young man approached and stood in front of him.

"Assalamualaikum, sorry is that okay?"

Hearing the voice of someone who asked her Eve, she looked up to see who had just asked her. However, instead of Eve, answering Eve, she was stunned to see the handsome young man in front of her. Even bollywood artists lose according to him.

"Ukhti?" The young man again said, making Eve, aware of her daydream.

"Ah yes, what's wrong?" answer Eve.

'It seems that he santri here' the inner youth, who saw Eve's clothes, was also in the boarding school.

"Sorry, are you you okay? Hand hurt?"

'Okay, how about, I can't say I want to run away, if it turns out he's a santri child as well' inner Eve who is afraid if anyone reports her behavior.

"Ah, this. I fell, slipped. It was while cleaning that tree" pointed Eve at the guava tree inside the pesantren.

"Don't forget to treat the wound so as not to infection. You'd better get in because it's soon class schedule" the young man stared at his watch.

"Ah, yes," answered Eve, then got up and stood up. Afterwards Eve, also ran into the pesantren through the front gate.

The young man returned to his taxi to pick up his suitcase and backpack. After that the young man gave a sheet of money to the taxi driver, then stepped walking into the An-nur boarding school.

In front of the gate the young man stood for quite a long time staring at the cottage building in front of him. At that time the condition of the cottage was so quiet because all the students had entered the class to follow the teaching and learning in the cottage.

"Nothing has changed" said the young man who gave a smile and stepped deeper into the hut to reach the courtyard of the house of kiyai Abdullah, the owner of the An-nur boarding school.

"Assalamualaikum" said the young man.

"Waalaikumsalam." replied Umm khodijah. From inside the house.

Ummi's eyes were wide until they were glazed. Haru and happy feeling became one when he saw the smile of a young man who had longed for.

"Adam," call Ummi full day.

"How is Ummi" Adam kissed the hand of ummi khodijah, the figure of the mother he missed so much.

"Alhamdulillah, ummi good. How are you, son, well?"

"Alhamdulillah healthy Ummi."

"Adam, want to give Ummi a surprise" Adam replied with a smile.

"Come in, you must be tired! How did you learn there, son?"

Umm Khodijah, immediately brought Adam, to sit on the sofa, but his mouth never stopped asking questions to his son.

Muhammad Adam Alfatih, that is his full name. Four years of Adam, educated in cairo, made the mother lose her son figure during that time.

Not only the mother who felt the loss of Adam, all the santri also lost let alone the princess who admired Adam a lot. Handsomeness, ingenuity, hospitality, and also righteousness made the Eve, craving her as their future priest.

"Where is Aby?"

"Aby, being replaced, ustad Soleh, taught because today ustad Soleh, could not attend because of illness," explained ummi, sersya put one cup of tea for Adam.

"Aby, do you still like teaching Ummi?"

"Not every day, just replace it because Aby, also not as healthy as before, and yak as young as before. Even Ummi hopes, after this you will not go again, replace Aby, teach if there is an idol who is an idol."

"God willing to God."

****

The news of Adam's arrival, was already known by the santri. Making santri fuss especially santri princess, who so admired the figure of Adam.

Among the princess santri, there is one santri who really likes him. He longs and looks forward to Adam's return from Cairo. Because something kept him waiting..

"Asma, Asma," cried Aminah, calling Asthma, with a voice so loud.

"Astagfirullah, Minah, keep your attitude when you shout like that" Asma said, when Minah came to her class lucky when there were no subjects in progress.

"Asma, mas Adam," said Minah, with a breath of agitation.

"Sit down, Minah. What was? Just talk slowly." Minah, also sat on an empty bench facing Eve.

"Mas Adam, we're home. Last Minah, look at Mas Adam, it's in Pak kiyai's house."

"Is Minah really?" Minah nodded in response.

'O Allah, I have waited for a long time, you have finally returned to the inner Mas' Asma.

Smile Asthma, also expands, it feels impatient to meet Adam soon, even though he can not meet in person and can only hear his voice. Because a Muslim woman and a man should not meet, let alone look at each other very long because it is not mahrom.

And if they meet, there must be a family that accompanies, it is forbidden to be alone, with a non-mahrom.

Asma and Adam were married, but Adam did not give an answer. Asma liked Adam, since he first entered the cottage. His wish was expressed to his father. Hearing his daughter put her heart to a man who owned the cottage, the father immediately expressed his intention to kiyai Abdullah, to match them.

But kiyai Abdullah, can not give an answer because no matter how the decision is on Adam his son. At the time, he was studying in Cairo.
