The sound of knocking on the door from outside the room mba Kina. Building him who is asleep.
"Mbah..mbah again what? There's something Nilna wants to talk about" Nilna opened it up a little, it just so happened that the door was unlocked
"Because I'm still sleeping, I won't be here anymore"
the door that originally opened a little back in the row
"What's up, cah ayu? suddenly I go"
Hearing Kina's voice, Nilna immediately approached the voice.
"Anu mbahh's... Nilna just wants a mastiin, mbah again sleep what not"
"Is there anything you want to say? What's the problem in Semarang?"
Mbah Kina already felt the oddity in the attitude of her granddaughter, even though she had not spoken but was able to feel it.
Nilna told me all about what she experienced at the school, a lot of things happened and made her change for the better. One of them is when you know Gus Zaki. He shared his concerns about being involved with Gus Zaki. But now he still has a lover.
"Sir, you're an adult. You already know what is best for your future. He is also ready to lead you to His heaven. If it's embah sii, it would be more agree with Zaki. She can definitely guide you" Holding Nilna's shoulder to convince her granddaughter of her choice
"But what if Danang comes back? what am I supposed to tell him?"
"She'll understand, you're a girl. Shouldn't be hung like this"
"Yes Mbah, the day after tomorrow I will catch up with Danang. I'll give him news about my taaruf as well as Zaki's gus"
"Whatever your decision will always support you, as long as you are happy living it yes nduk"

The next morning Nilna followed Kina's mbah to the garden. Many vegetables are grown Mbah Kina. The soil condition in the garden is also very fertile. There are several kinds of vegetables grown Mbah Kina, among others: vegetables Spinach, Sawi, Kale, and Eggplant.
"This is a vegetable what is small? why not plant in the ground directly mbah?" Nilna held onto the plant of her concern
"This is a polybag nduk. usually, a nonik that prepares a 15 cm diameter bag of crackles, humus, compost, and seeds sawinya. While Mbah who watered it morning and evening. By planting vegetables not only provide benefits for the mbah only, but also nduk vegetable baskets. Usually vegetable baskets, I'll put them here. For these seeds, Nonik sold them"
"I'm sorry, Nilna hasn't been able to help all this time. I think Nonik is very good at marketing these mustard seeds mbah" Admired at the little nephew
"Because the seedlings are superior is also a major factor in baskets in here nduk" explained Mbah Kina
"How can you tell if this is a superior seedling?" Nilna was very enthusiastic when she was near Mbah Kina
"To know it, we must understand very well the characteristics of nduk. What are the characteristics of superior and healthy mustard seedlings? First, the shape is round and small in size, the skin of the seedlings is brown rather blackish. Superior mustard seedlings have a more slippery surface and also shiny. A good mustard seed is packaged using aluminum foil that is still intact" Mbah Ninik explained while watering the sayurn in front of him
The Tring Tring....
Handpohone Nilna rang, there was a call from an unknown number he entered.
"For a while, Nilna picked up the phone first"
Mbah Kina nodded and smiled towards Nilna
"Hello, Assalamualaikum"
"Waalaikumsalam..."
"Ma-af I ni si what?" Stammering Nilna, water droplets began to fall on her cheeks. As if he did not believe what he heard. The voice he had not heard for a long time was now coming back
