Ustadz Ridwan's Dream

46. Message Not Arrived

Ridwan lay on his bed mattress which is based on Pekalongan batik bed sheet that feels cool on the skin.

A small fan attached to the wall of the room is seen spinning with its distinctive sound filling the silence of the night.

After taking the time to recite for a while with his prayer beads, Ridwan grabbed the phone to set the alarm.

Actually, for some people who are accustomed to waking up at night to pray, somehow they will usually wake up automatically.

However, Ridwan always felt that as a human being still the effort is an obligation.

After setting the alarm, usually Ridwan will put it on a pillow that is beside him, but this time somehow he was interested in seeing his chat application when suddenly he remembered the figure of Anisa.

Yes Anisa...

The girl, the first girl made by God was able to knock on the door of her heart, whose name then rested in it, and then incarnated as a test for Ridwan to keep himself from feeling, filthy thoughts and imaginations that God does not believe in.

Ridwan sighed, remembering that he was the figure of Anisa who cried sobbing telling his story with Uminya.

How he regretted the departure of Uminya which he later felt responsible to always be haunted by guilt.

Listening to all the stories of Anisa about the departure of Uminya, really make Ridwan heart as a man who loves her would love to be able to strengthen Anisa.

Ridwan felt pity and sorrow with the figure of Anisa who seemed so weak soul.

It is a pity of man who lives in such feelings, he certainly needs someone who can guide him to see the gift of God is really very large, inviting him to stop focusing on the things that make him sad.

Ridwan is eager to be able to believe in good destiny and bad destiny, accept good destiny and bad destiny, so that he will be sincere and can really live as a human being loved by God.

Yes of course, Ridwan also felt that he was still in the learning stage, but inshaAllah, he felt capable enough to accompany Anisa to learn to achieve everything.

Ridwan also knows that women are vulnerable to weakness, that is because women should be creatures that are well guarded by a man.

Ridwan sighed, his finger starting to idly look at the status of his friends. Fooling the time, Ridwan saw all the existing statuses, not least finally belong to Anisa.

Status Anisa uploads cooking with a mother who is not so foreign to Ridwan but either Ridwan knows or see where.

Anisa uploaded her video cooking with a mother with a smile that was brighter than before while still talking to Ridwan.

"Today I went to my beautiful, kind and good at cooking."

So said Anisa.

The next upload is a photo of all the dishes presented on the table, with the caption, Alhamdulillah is ready.

Ridwan smiled involuntarily, when somehow his mind jumped to imagine the future with Anisa who would cook for himself and for their children.

Ridwan then inexplicably his finger like moving itself to comment on the photo of the side dish at the dining table Anisa.

"Alhamdulillah."

That's it, yeah that's it...

**---------------**

"Alhamdulillah."

Anisa read Ridwan's writing commenting on her status this afternoon.

Fad status alone, uploading photos of his mother's cooking Iis and also one of his homemade cuisine.

Really am...

Anisa momentarily felt her heartbeat become faster than usual.

He did not expect that Ridwan would send him a chat.

Anisa then typed a reply, while her eyes looked at the caption under Ridwan's name where the writing was typing.

Ridwan will send another message. So thought Anisa.

Anisa types a message for Ridwan, but always feels inappropriate, then she goes back and forth to delete it.

"Not slept yet?"

Ah no, Anisa deleted it, then typed again,

"Hehe... That's why I'm learning to cook."

What is this, who asks? Inner Anisa while deleting her message again,

Anisa typed again,

"Tomorrow to teach Saints njai again right?"

Anisa shook her head, though,

Aah seems eager to see you again, embarrassing. Inner Anisa anyway.

Anisa removed it again.

He typed again and ended up deleting it again.

It seems that this is the first time Anisa sent a message with a man she likes, she was so nervous and confused what to type.

However, in fact it is no different from Anisa, in her room Ridwan is also the same.

Since then he was seen typing, also because back and forth and back again and again deleted.

"Anisa hasn't slept?"

Ridwan deleted the message because he felt disrespectful.

They are not yet how close, why should he ask whether he is asleep or not.

Ridwan then typed again,

"Don't forget to pray before bed."

Ah what is this?

Ridwan again deleted the message because it was considered too excessive not anything he had reminded Anisa to pray first before going to bed.

So Ridwan deleted it and replaced it with another message,

"Anisa's good at cooking apparently."

Oh my God, what is this? Really like a woo. Astarghfirullah's. Ridwan.

And so, the two men were continuously typing and deleting, they seemed to be sending messages throughout the letter because they were typing, but the message was not so.
