Wedding on Eid Al-Fitr Night

"Son lia.."bah bahrud cleared his throat, but lia was still carried away.

Asiyah's mother patted Lia on the shoulder so that made lia surprised.

"yes ma'am" he said with a smile

" do you want me to have a plan to get married again???"ask abah bahrud

"why bah.what my face says something bah"

"lia's son was interested in the chanter of the holy verse earlier"

"yes bah.the voice is melodious.I feel like I'm being hummed" he replied in shame.

abah bahrud laughed so that all his teeth were visible, Asiyah's mother was happy to see her husband laughing again after a full moon.

"do you have taaruf with him" asked abah bahrud again.

"hah..taaruf...but I was waiting for someone to come propose to me bah...but it has been 5 months, I lost the news of his...how ya???"

"is not the soul mate, death and sustenance is already the destiny of God, why wait for the uncertain, if that is certainly already in sight"

"the man will be like me" he looked at the Bahrud who was drinking his tea.

abah bahrud and Asiyah's mother smiled.

after the magrib prayer, Lia taught in her room, Asiyah's mother who heard so amazed at lia, it turns out that all this time lia was able to hide her skills.

every divine word that is read by the lia, as if to the heart of the one who hears it.

"subhanallah.nak lia..you are very humble.so much God entrusts all things to you but you are always tawadhu" said Mother asiyah amazed.

"Assalamualaikum ma....why is mom here???"

"waalaikum salam abah.bah..i am happy to have nak lia, abah listen to lia teachi nak..so eloquent and melodious.do we just run taaruf between nak darandra and lia yah"

"iya ma'am.we find the right time to bring them together.but don't lia and darandra have parents.do we not step over them if we make plans first taaruf"abah Bahrud looked at his wife who was thinking.

Time passed, though darandra often ushered in abah bahrud and his wife but darandra had never met with lia, as well as lia.

abah bahrud receives guests from darandra's parents.

"Assalamualaikum abah" said a woman who was none other than her mother darandra.

"waalaikum salam bu dea.please enter" replied Ms. Asiyah.

after being invited to sit down, ma'am dea just stared at Darandra.

"ndra...mother can hear from abah bahrud...if you will be taaruf with someone is it true??"

"i also don't know much, ma'am, I don't even know anything about it"

"Begini bu dea..nak darandra.we have a foster daughter.Our daughter greatly admires the voice of darandra when reciting the holy verse of the Qur'an, that's why we want darandra to accept our adopted daughter"abah stare fixed there darandra who bowed.

"I'm sorry abah.but I promised someone.I'll marry him on eid night later"

"enough ndra..ibu does not like ya.kamu married a widow..kaja marriage in grebeg so, women what the hell like that..better you accept taaruf from abah bahrud only"Dea's mother glared haughtily.

"oh yes ma'am..our daughter is also a widow..but does not have children...how???"
