The Repentance of the Sinner

62. Ba'dha Dzuhur Moment

...Happy Reading's...

That night Jeremy really did not close his eyes at all, Nicholas could only help make a few cups of black coffee, as a form of a sense of loyalty to the boss.

While Sholeh also joined the fight while listening and correcting the reading from Jeremy. Until finally ten more minutes the sound of the Adhan will be echoed soon.

"Huf... Alhamdulilah already morning, after the morning prayer I want to sleep for a while, later Om Both who replace me check the needs of the kitchen?" Said Sholeh who had done the agreement before.

"Any boss is small, but my reading is good, right?" Asked Jeremy with mounting confidence.

"Emmm... Still far from the real good word." Answer Sholeh honestly.

"Huh? how the hell are you Sholeh, I'm gonna face this Abah?"

"You know what else, just give it up, let Abah judge it, I'm sorry brother." Sholeh immediately packed up and started to get up

"But Sholeh?"

"Mkc... Quiet brother, one that you need to remember, Abah is a good person, he will not complicate his santri, especially in order to perfect half his religion, sing calm, sing spirit, my prayers accompany brother." Sholeh was also tormented by it, not an easy thing to learn adults immediately memorize with good and correct reading.

"But what if I'm wrong?" Jeremy started insecure.

"Yes at best Hanny was betrothed to someone else, or if Mbak Hanny wants to be the same I can too, dream of sister is Oye anyway!" Sholeh begins to scare Jeremy who is already starting to panic.

"Yet you are Sholll.watch out for you, never be a sister's rival!" Shouted Jeremy who immediately did not accept.

"Haha... Assalamu'alaikum!" Sholeh just laughed at answering.

I know best who Abah, although the wrong brother must also only be repaired, he must only test and give a challenge so that you know that it is not easy to get something in life, and burn the spirit of kindness to get a companion to live with hard work and persistent effort, so that later it is not easy to let go when a problem occurs.

Sholeh immediately rolled up the scabbard and ran out of the room with a crisp laugh there while having an opinion on Jeremy.

"Assalamu'alaikum Abah." Jeremy knocks on the door and says hello in Abah's room.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, come in son!" The answer is to know who is coming.

"Are you waiting for me?" Ask Jeremy.

"Why is Abah waiting for you, who has your wish?" Abah replied, smiling, looking at Jeremy's disheveled face.

"Hehe... Sorry Bah, then I'm ready Abah."

"Good, then you start soon, because soon it's time for morning prayers."

"Well Abah, but can't I ask you a favor first?" Jeremy started wanting to negotiate earlier.

"Please what?"

"If something goes wrong, no papa, Abah, I've been desperately memorizing it Bah, but.."

"Nothing butsir or do you want Hanny I marry someone else?" Abah immediately cut him off and told Jeremy to start, as he would also prepare to go to the mosque to become an imam.

"Don't Abah."

"start."

Abah immediately gave an edict and put both ears well to listen to the reading from Jeremy.

"Faul... Bismilahirohmanirohim."

Just saying the basmalah readings had both legs shaking, his cold sweat had started to come out as big as corn seeds.

"Pacify yourself, if you're like that, you'll definitely mess up." The lyrics of Abah who had started smiling saw the expression of Jeremy.

"So, I'm afraid if it's wrong then Hanny's taken someone else." Whining Jeremy.

"start." Abah doesn't seem to care.

"Change please." Jeremy looks compassionate, so that a little mercy if there is a mistake later.

"If you don't start now, Abah will be the one to edit Hanny's son."

"Change?"

"Read Jeremy, round out your resolve, just trust in your Creator, something that is destined for you will still be yours, begin son."

Abah stretched out his hand and rubbed Jeremy's head and recited a prayer for a moment, so that he could be calmer.

"Shadaqallahul'adzim." Finally Jeremy managed to complete his rote.

"There is still a lot you have to learn, the length and short reading is still often a lot of wrong, the reading signs as well and when interpreting something back and forth, huft....this is how you try?" Abah was seen letting out a long sigh after that, he actually understood Jeremy's position, he just wanted to test how serious his struggle was.

"Change?"

"Here you go, shall I reconsider later, we now go to the mosque first?" Abah answered while taking back his turban.

"If you still ask a lot, I'll transfer Hanny's son to another Pondok Pesantren." Abah gets anxious on his own when Jeremy looks impatient.

"Change?"

"Come to the mosque!"

Jeremy is like a man without bones, to stand as if his feet are unable to tread the earth.

Her fancies were as if they were pseudo, her beliefs faded to be able to confuse Hanny today, but she had tried with all her might, so she could only submit to her Fate, she said, even from the dawn prayer until now he is still in the mosque alone to pray to God the creator of the universe of Nature.

"Assalamu'alaikum sis?"

Suddenly, Sholeh's voice came from the direction of the mosque's door.

"Wa'alaikum salam Sholeh, what's wrong?"

"Why did my brother's face get tangled up, couldn't he memorize it properly?"

"Hmmm.." Jeremy could only shake his head weakly.

"Yes no papa, if the soul mate is not going anywhere, this is a letter from Mbak Hanny." Sholeh directly stretched out a folded piece of paper with the origin.

"Huh? You met Hanny Dek?" Jeremy was surprised to hear that.

"Who told you not to replace me to check the needs of the kitchen, I have given the opportunity for brother to be wasted?"

"Well, why didn't you say deck?" Because Jeremy had not come out of the mosque at all, not even a mouthful of rice was in his stomach.

"Don't faint, brother, remember the angel there are seven, if missing one there are still six, I, brother and sister Nicholas must still be part, yes spirit sister?" Ledek Sholeh when Jeremy seems to regret.

"I want just Hanny's deck!"

"Sstth.. don't be hard, quickly read, soon I want this Adhan dzuhur, after ba'dha dzuhur there are many things that I have to prepare, there are many things that I have to prepare, so later if you want to continue crying in the corner there, or in the room santri aja, okay brother?"

"Ckkp.. You are, you are usually badgering big brother!"

Jeremy immediately breezed away and wanted to read a letter from Hanny somewhere that no one else saw.

After repeatedly sighing in length Jeremy chose to sit down on the floor and began reading the handwriting on the white piece of paper away from the mosque.

Degh's!

While his rote is still a lot wrong and needs a lot of correction, Jeremy's heartbeat instantly vibrates erratically.

Moreover, Abah also did not promise that he would be married to Hanny.

"Geez, is it because my memorization hasn't gone smoothly Hanny will be married to someone else, or maybe Hanny will be married to me?" Many question words were lodged in his mind.

"But why didn't Abah say anything to me until now?" Jeremy was confused as to what he should do at the moment.

"Oh my God, I really don't want Hanny to marry someone else, what should I do God?"

Finally Jeremy ran to the room he occupied to find Nicholas or Sholeh to help himself.

"Nick?"

"Shby?"

But when he arrived there no one answered his call, because the Dzuhur prayer had begun, they all must have followed the prayer of worshipers together.

Even because it was too permeated the contents of the letter, he forgot the congregational prayer in the mosque of the boarding school.

"Astagfirullihal'adzim, forgive me God, please don't punish me."

Finally Jeremy walked straight to the mosque to do his dzuhur prayer, he deliberately did not run to pursue congregational prayer, because he could make sure that they must have been finished, he said, so Jeremy does intend to pray Dzuhur himself in the Mosque.

When both eyes were directed to the door of the mosque, he saw some other santri already sitting around neatly wearing all-white clothes.

Even more to make Jeremy's legs seem to be glued to the spot, there was a woman who sat down to her back against a small table with a man who was also wearing white clothes sitting not far from him.

And Jeremy knows very well who the woman is, he memorized very well with the shape of his body even though now he has hijab even though.

"Allohu Akbar, are you punishing me Lord, forgive me Lord, forgive me, torment me.."

Even Jeremy was no longer able to continue his steps, his body collapsed instantly in the courtyard of the mosque.

Bruk!

His vision began to feel dark, although at that time the sun was shining with valour, his consciousness was slowly beginning to disappear, finally Jeremy fainted and unconscious.

If the only dream we have is about a perfect life, we will definitely be disappointed because such a dream cannot come true in the real world.
