The Woman of Heaven the Angel of the World
Chapters. 10.6
"Reply, Umi?" Habib Ja'far called his wife.
Then came a middle-aged woman with a white face who had bandaged her whole body except for the face. Although it was old but the trace of beauty was still very much alive on her face.
"Yes, Abah?"
"We have guests. Look who's coming, Umi'll be happy to see it." Habib Ja'far.
Habib Ja'far's eyes clearly pointed to the beautiful girl who was sitting alone with a grim expression on her face.
Umi followed where habib Ja'far's eyes looked. And how surprised he was when he saw Aish, the glaring girl who was very conspicuous.
"So, this is tea.this is Aisha tea?" Umi's question surprised all of them except habib Ja'far himself.
Father, Aunt, and Uncle who came to drive Aish felt astonished and wondered where they knew Aish from.
Aish was startled by her call and turned her head unconsciously following where the source of the voice was.
Those soft eyes, Aish momentarily felt a trace of a Mother's affection within her. But no, Aish immediately lowered her head. He didn't want to get caught up in that feeling anymore. He was afraid he was disappointed.
"My name is Aish, not Aisha." Error Aish.
"Not polite." Say Aunt.
But Aish doesn't care.
"What a pretty name. Aish or Aisha, they're the same." Umi said still softly.
Aish suddenly felt embarrassed.
"True, a very good name. Like the person, this name is very beautiful and has a very beautiful meaning as well. Umi, bring Aish inside to rest. He needs rest because he's traveled a long way." Habib Ja'far instructed his wife.
Umi was already very enthusiastic and could not cover the excitement on her old face.
Walking over to Aish, she grabbed Aish's hand and pulled him away.
"Aish went with Umi inside, huh?" Umi is very friendly.
Aish is not used to Umi's familiar attitude because usually he always gets cold treatment from the people around him.
"Yeah, Umi." Reply Aish stuttered.
"Wait, Aish." Dad called.
"Bring this up for your provisions." Said Dad felt very uncomfortable.
Aish glanced at the two bank cards in Dad's hand and unhesitatingly replied.
"no need. I have my own money." Reject Aish.
Dad smiled faintly, "This is the money your Mama saved for you." My father said half lying.
Aish was surprised, he looked at Dad doubtfully.
"Take it."
Aish raised his hand in doubt and took the two bank cards out of Dad's hand.
"I'll keep it. Thank you." Thank you." After saying that he immediately turned his back to Father and asked Umi to walk quickly.
I saw his daughter's departure. Leaving without saying goodbye or a final greeting, I knew that Aish might be very angry at her decision to send her to this place. But what should he do?
Grandma has made the final decision at home. She refuses but Grandma insists that this is for Aish's own good.
"Sister, why is the money given to Aish? Didn't her mother just leave one savings for her?" Aunt disagreed with Dad's decision.
"It's true that her mother left only one savings for her. But she's my daughter too and she deserves it." Said Dad weakly.
"Stay still no Aira, brother. Aira also needs tuition and school."
"There's me next to him so how could he be lacking? While Aish.he's alone here."
"But, Brother-"
"Shut up!" Cut Daddy won't talk anymore.
Aunty pouted and was angry but could only hold it in her chest.
Smiling faintly, Dad turned to look at habib Ja'far and begged sincerely, "Please take care of my daughter, habib. She is a stubborn girl and may be a little difficult to manage, but rest assured she is a very good girl actually. He's just a little closed, so please take care of my daughter, habib."
Habib Ja'far smiled broadly, patting Dad on the shoulder with a familiar gesture, "Under my responsibility, God willing he will grow up to be a good Muslim and close to Allah. You can be sure." Habib Ja'far's promise with the biggest smile.
