"Umi, please call ning Zahra here" Kyai Hasanuddin or Gus Din said to his wife.
"Fine abi," replied Nyai Rahma, and the umi of the Zahra ning immediately got up from her seat and went inside to call the princess.
Nyai Rahma met her daughter who was still in the room, "ning, is it ready to come out?" Ask Rahma gently.
Ning Zahra looked at the netra shady the umi, "what should Zahra mi?" Ask her with a clear look.
Nyai Rahma nodded softly, "sister Najwa is married, while ning Zahwa is very young.he has not even graduated from ning school," she said Rahma, looking gently at her daughter. Nyai Rahma knew, her daughter actually objected to this matchmaking because there was already a santri kang in her abi boarding school that managed to grab the attention of ning Zahra.
"Sampean think again ning, no need to compare the two because the difference is clearly visible. Sampean thought, how does it feel eyed," said Rahma softly, but with intimidating.
Ning Zahra could only take a deep breath, and a moment later the calm girl moved from her seat, "Zahra was ready to come out," she said softly.
Before long the two women of different generations who were both beautiful were walking slowly towards the living room, ning Zahra walked over with her head lowered.
Nyai Rahma led her daughter who kept her head down to join her sepuh nyai, nyai Robi'ah and also Laila.
"Ning, Umar's gus family came here to ask you to be Umar's wife as he had said a while ago?" Kyai Hasyim asked directly to the grandson, shortly after Ning Zahra and Rahma sat down.
Ning Zahra looked up at a glance, staring at her shady-eyed face. And then nodded slowly, and the shy girl immediately lowered her face back.
"Alhamdulillah," said thanks to Hasyim and Zarkasi kyai simultaneously, but not with Umar gus who bowed lethargic.
Kyai Hasanuddin and his wife also look relieved, as well as nyai sepuh and nyai Robi'ah.
In contrast to Kyai Abdullah who seemed a little worried to see the sadness of his son, "gus, does anyone want to tell you to tell you?" Kyai Abdullah whispers to his son.
Gus Umar shook his head weakly, "Umar doesn't know yet, maybe later," replied Umar in a whisper.
Laila also looked very sad, the young girl looked at the nanar of the sister who was still bowed lethargic. "Okay luck until now, brother, I do not want to be the same fate as big brother, I do not want to be in a match-match like this," Laila said in her heart, saying, who wants to be able to fight for his own heart and life later.
"When will we formalize the relationship between the two of them?" Tanya Kyai Hashim, seems impatient to want to immediately make friends with his nyantri when they were young.
Kyai was staring at the grandson and his son alternately, "how is Gus Ab?" Ask kyai sepuh to kyai Abdullah.
"Slips, bebet and its second weight have been equally we know gus, and ta'arruf will be more beautiful if done when it is halal, right?" Hasyim kyai who looks determined to immediately marry the grandson with gus Umar, intelligent young man who he had long sought to be a grandson-in-law.
Kyai sepuh even nodded his head, sign in agreement with the words of Kyai Hasyim, his best friend. "True gus Ab, it is not good to procrastinate the intention that belongs to worship. You are sure, as time goes by, that feeling of liking will grow in the hearts of both of them, because his two-two has a plus each that can make the opposite sex easily fall in love if it has seen him," timpal kyai sepuh, smiling.
"Isn't that so, 'Our Umar?" Kyai sepuh looked at the grandson with his shady gaze, as if begging gus Umar to agree to speed up his marriage with ning Zahra.
Gus Umar responded to her with just a faint smile, his heart was currently completely unsettled. Gus Umar did not want to hurt the feelings of those he respected and loved, but Gus Umar also felt very guilty to Aida, real indirectly has hurt the heart of his brother's friend, although Umar himself also hurt his heart.
"Sorry abah yai," kyai Abdullah looked at kyai Hashim, his father's friend. "What if to talk about their marriage together, we do it next time. Because ten more days, as soon as Laila finishes the school exam.We and our family will go to practice Umrah, and maybe we can discuss it again after we come home from the holy land?" Pinta kyai Abdullah very, very still trying to buy time for the son.
Kyai Hasyim and Kyai Zarkasi look at each other, the two kyai sepuh who are still conservative seems to disagree with the proposal kyai Abdullah.
"Gus Ab, leave everything to you. You worship there fervently, and do not worry about the business here. God willing we are still able to take care of things like this," reply sepuh kyai hinting that the marriage of gus Umar and ning Zahra will still be carried out as soon as possible, even without the intervention of kyai Abdullah and kyai Hasanuddin.
Kyai Abdullah and his wife can only take a deep breath, inevitably he both must follow dawuh kyai sepuh. Because that's the custom in his family, after all kyai sepuh not contrary to religion and for the good of Umar gus anyway.
Likewise with kyai Hasanuddin and nyai Rahma, who also seemed resigned to his abah decision that is Kyai Hashim.
While ning Zahra still keep his face down, the girl did not react to the decision of the grandfather for himself. Since childhood, Zahra was educated to always obey his parents, including Hasyim kyai which is his eye from the side of Hasanuddin kyai.
For a moment of silence greet the family living room of Kyai Hasanuddin.
"Look at kang yai, let's discuss this next time while making coffee," the heavy voice of Kyai Hashim broke the silence.
Kyai nods, approving the idea of her best friend.
And as the night was getting late, the family of kyai Abdullah then asked to resign. Kyai sepuh immediately say goodbye to his best friend, "we can talk again this as soon as possible, I will change to visit the residence kang yai," whispered Kyai Hashim while hugging kyai sepuh.
"Alright yi, I wait," replied kyai sepuh also with a whisper, while breaking the arms of his best friend.
The two kyai who were both of the same age looked at each other and as if they were making plans, a smile of happiness rose on the faces of the two who had wrinkled.
