The Story of the Children of the Juragan

97. Meet Natalie

The hot air makes Wulan wake up in the middle of the night, even though he has turned on his room AC.

He went to the bathroom to wash his body fresh. It crossed his mind for all ablution.

With a gesture as he remembered he began to wash some of his limbs. Then go out the bathroom and pick up the mucus that he kept neatly in the closet.

For a moment he was confused, had to stretch his alphabet in which direction. Then open the phone to look for clues.

After being convinced of the Qibla direction, he used his mukenya. And when he was about to raise his hand to make a takbir move, he stopped. Because suddenly remembered, what to intend before praying.

He re-opened his phone to seek knowledge again about night prayer.

"Sholat tahajud." his his sizzle when reading an article about evening prayer.

"Lord I did all this for you. And not because of the man." muttered Wulan confidently, then steady to do the takbir movement.

He tried to do the prayer movement really and as much as he could. And when he forgot, he opened his phone application that showed every reading.

About 1 hour of time it takes Wulan to perform tahajud 2 prayer, because the reading is considered difficult.

After completing the work, Wulan recited, then honoured God. He conveyed all his complaints, he conveyed all his requests, then closed the ritual by rubbing his hands on his face.

He stared at the phone screen and read the prayer. Of course, what he read was his translation, because he had not learned about the Arabic letters in the series.

After praying, he returned to his bed. And before long, he could sleep soundly.

In the morning, he can still wake up as usual, then do activities like in the days before.

When he came home from work, he came back to Natalie. But this time Wulan did not offer help for his new friend, because grandpa was beside him. But inwardly, Wulan promised to give her friend a lift.

A week has passed. Wulan performs prayers at the required hours of prayer. Still by reading the readings on the phone.

Pucuk in love ulam also arrived. When Wulan returns home, he meets Natalie. He immediately offered to help her, which was to drive her home.

Natalie, who was initially reluctant, finally accepted the offer. Especially after hearing if Wulan there did not have a friend. Makes Natalie even more unbearable.

During the trip, Wulan asked a lot about praying to Natalie. The friend looked a little surprised, but still replied.

"What! So our prayers are not valid, if we have not implemented the pillars of Islam number 1?" Wulan was shocked when she heard Natalie's explanation. The young mother nodded her head.

"Okay, if so later I will read the number 1 pillar of Islam at home." hiss Wulan steady. And Natalie smiled hearing the girl's intentions.

"Who will be your witness?" ask Natalie.

"Witness what? I'm not married? Why ask any witnesses?" Wulan chuckled at the end of her sentence. Natalie also chuckles.

"Wulan, not just reading the pillars of Islam number 1. But it has to follow the rules."

"What are the ways?" Wulan turned towards Natalie for a moment with a serious look on her face.

Natalie finally told the procedure in order to implement the pillars of Islam number 1. Making Wulan quite surprised, his heart instantly thumped. Because it sounds more sacred to just say that short sentence.

"May I have your phone number Nat? I think I need a lot of your help."

"Wulan's happy." Natalie replied. They also exchanged phone numbers.

Their conversation was over, which was the same as the car that stopped in front of Natalie's house.

They continued their conversation at Natalie's house.
