We Are Different

We Are Different
The Restu Mama Part. 1



In the early morning Aluna with Malik and Said arrived at Aluna's family home. Malik drove the car from start to finish. Maybe because the fun of chatting with Aluna along the way makes Malik not feel tired or sleepy.


Aluna and the others got out of the car and knocked on her parents' door. Aluna and Said agree not to tell their families about their return.


Aluna knocks on the door of her parents' house while Malik and Said drop off their belongings and clothing bags from the car.


How surprised Miss Maysaroh to see who came so early.


"Luna, are you coming home to tell Mama first?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


"Ma will be a surprise said Said" replied Aluna with a happy smile.


Aluna hugged her mother's body tightly.


"You're going home with Said too? Where's she?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


"Tuh nurunin again goods from the car" replied Aluna.


"Car? You guys get in a car from the city? Whose car? You bought a car?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh surprised.


Aluna laughed at her mother's question.


"No Ma, we came with someone" replied Aluna with a meaningful smile making Ms. Maysaroh curious.


"Who?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh while trying to look behind Aluna.


But Aluna pulled Mama's body into the house.


"We've been waiting for them inside" replied Aluna.


Aluna went in with her mother. Soon, Said entered with Malik.


"Let's go in Mas. Assalamu'alaikum Mamaaaa" Said said in a cheerful tone.


"Wa'alaikumsalaaaaaaa" replied Ms. Maysaroh stammered as she looked at the man who entered with Said.


Said immediately hugged his mother's body but the attention of Bu Maysaroh no longer to Said. Mrs Maysaroh stared in disbelief at Malik.


"Assalamu'alaikum Bu" Sapa Malik was very polite and polite.


Ms. Maysaroh did not answer Malik's greeting out of confusion.


"Answored donk Ma. Answer the greeting is mandatory" Said said.


"Wa'alaikumsalam" replied Bu Maysaroh confused whether his answer was correct.


Malik immediately grabbed the hand of Ms. Maysaroh and kissed her with a takjim. Ms. Maysaroh is still silent and confused about what she should do with the man she has known for a long time.


The man Aluna loved but was forbidden. Yes he strictly forbade Aluna to get in touch with this man. But why did Aluna come home with him.


What happened to them? What is happening right now really makes Miss Maysaroh confused.


"The guests are not allowed to sit Ma" Said said smiling.


"Oh yes, please sit down" said Ms. Maysaroh.


Ms. Maysaroh glanced at Aluna and gave the code to follow her backwards. Malik understands what is happening now because Aluna and Said have told him that they have not said anything to their mother.


When Bu Maysaroh and Aluna were about to go back there was the sound of the dawn prayer from the mosque.


"We pray to Masjid yuk" Take Said.


"Come on Said" replied Malik.


Sontak Bu Maysaroh stopped his steps to hear the talks of Said and Malik. Bu Maysaroh glanced at Aluna and replied Aluna with a smile


"Mom, our brother prayed at dawn in the mosque first yes" Said said.


Bu Maysaroh turned his body to look at Said questioningly and Said also replied with a smile.


"Excuse me Ma'am" Malik said.


"What is this Luna?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


"We should pray at dawn first, Ma. Later we will talk about everything with Malik and Said After they returned from the Mosque" replied Aluna.


Ms. Maysaroh took a deep breath and tried to be patient.


"We should pray at dawn first" said Ms. Maysaroh.


Aluna went into her room as well as Miss Maysaroh. Soon, Said and Malik returned home after the prayer.


Aluna after the prayer in the mosque went straight to the kitchen to make them warm tea. Ms. Maysaroh came out of the room with her younger sister Lula Aluna.


"Mom sit first yuk" Invite Aluna who has been waiting for her Mama in the family room with Said and Malik. Ms. Maysaroh then walked over and joined them.


"Lula you are ready to go to school" Aluna told Lula.


"Yes Brother" Lula answered after kissing Aluna and Said's hand. Not to miss Malik either.


After that Lula returned to the room to prepare - ready for school. Aluna, Said, Malik and Ms. Maysaroh are now sitting in the family room.


"Ma Malik became a convert three years ago" Aluna said.


Sontak Bu Maysaroh was surprised to hear Aluna's words. He looked at Malik's face and replied with a respectful smile from Malik.


"And I'm now with Malik's office" Aluna continued.


"There is also the intention of Malik coming here is" continued Aluna.


"l.. If next let me explain it to Mom" Cut Malik.


Aluna fell silent, Miss Maysaroh looked at Malik waiting for what Malik would say. For some reason since seeing Malik come with his two children the feeling of Bu Maysaroh saying something has returned between Aluna and Malik.


Malik took a deep breath and began to express his heart's intention to come to Aluna's family home.


"My arrival here with Aluna was to propose to Aluna and ask for her blessing to marry Aluna" Malik said.


Ms. Maysaroh was surprised to hear Malik's words. Then I looked at Aluna.


"Why haven't you ever told Mama?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


"Everything goes so short Ma" replied Aluna.


"Shortly? You moved to the City already a year Luna. Is that one year so short for you?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


"I just found out that one office with Malik after a few months of work. Because we're not one of Ma's buildings. Then a few months later I only found out that Malik had converted. Malik and I were not friends back then. After that Malik introduced my superiors to my close friends at the office and they went through ta'aruf while I walked with Mas Bian. Mas Bian proposed to me and I accepted. Until last night I and Mas Bian promised to meet with his parents but it turns out there Mas Bian and my friends apparently have worked with Malik to propose to me. Mas Bian chose to retreat and I finally accepted Malik's proposal" Aluna replied as she lowered her face.


Ms. Maysaroh can understand what her daughter is currently feeling.


"But Malik, does Nak Malik already know Aluna's current status?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh.


Malik smiled faintly and nodded his head.


"Tau Ma'am" answered Malik.


"Well, what about Nak Malik's family?" Ask Ms. Maysaroh worried.


"My father is dead. If my mother, thank God I have told the same story she even knows today I am here in order to ask for Mother's blessing. And my mother has also approved our good intentions, me and Aluna" Malik replied politely.


Ms. Maysaroh took a deep breath.


"If Mother is the important thing Aluna is happy. I used to not approve of your relationship because of religious differences. Besides, I don't mind Nak Malik. Now that Nak Malik has embraced Islam there is no longer any obstacle for you to be together. As long as you are happy and Nak Malik's family wants to receive my blessing" replied Mama Aluna.


"Alhamdulillah" Welcomed Aluna, Malik and Said together.
