WHEN I MISS PRAYER

Episode 17 - Holiday

Asyam, Salwa and Liya are waiting for the arrival of Asma on the terrace of the mosque. Before long, a car entered the mosque yard which signified the arrival of Asthma. Everyone got out of the car, including Ihsan who was in the car with Ustadz Hasan. Everyone is gathered.

"dad, asthma goes first." Asthma Vocabulary.

"you ride the bike with my asthma, liya is so happy." Salwa.

"lhoo, you're not coming, san ?" Ask ustadz Hasan.

"no, abi." Answer Ihsan.

"you come, take care of your asthma. Take Abi's car, let's all get in the car." Ustadz Hasan.

Ihsan could not refuse it. And finally, Ihsan joined in booking train tickets together. Asyam sat in front along with Ihsan. Asthma, Salwa and Liya sat side by side in the back.

The journey is silent, no one is talking. Her spirit became tense and awkward. Ihsan who still holds a bad taste to Asyam and Asna. Salwa who was feeling happy spent the night with Asyam and could get closer to Liya. Asham who still keeps the pain of the news of the sermon of Asthma. Liya who does not know what to behave like to people who are new to her and Asthma who still think about the story of God written for her.

His eyes continued to stare out the window, enjoying the colorful lights on the side of the road, pedestrians and people who were still making a living for the family. Everyone has their own story, burdens to bear, happiness, sadness, disappointment and all tastes with different portions. But Asma believes, all God has shared with each other's abilities. And now, God knows better that he is capable. The car stopped and entered the parking area. Suddenly someone knocked on the glass, breaking his daydream.

"asma.." her voice was faint from outside the glass.

Asthma opened the door and got out of the car.

"what's the matter ?" Ask Salwa.

"anything, just get carried away." The answer.

"already, let's book the ticket." Asyam.

Asthma bought a few bottles of drink. Salwa and Liya booked a ticket, while Asyam and Ihsan stood together waiting for Salwa and Liya.

"san, there's something serious I want to ask" Asyam said.

"what is that, sham ?" Ask Ihsan.

"i heard, that asthma has already proposed." Asyam.

Ihsan was surprised and looked at him immediately.

"who's that you hear from ?" Ask Ihsan.

"Asma said it herself. But he didn't tell me who that guy was." Obviously Asyam.

"before I tell you who that man is, I'd like to tell you." Ihsan.

"asma once said: Although this is not my will, it is the will of God. God has written this incident long before what we planned.” Ihsan.

"so whatever happens don't make the rope of friendship and brotherhood tenuous.You don't have it yet and the man didn't take it from you. And, asthma's gonna decide where to go for her love story." Ihsan.

"so who's that guy ?"

"bang ihsan, bang assyam.kan drink." said Asma gave a bottle to Ihsan and to Asham.

"why is his face on the tense ?" Ask Asma.

"you are funny" said Asma who suddenly laughed.

Ihsan also smiled rediscovering the joy on Astma's face. And so did Asham who smiled shyly.

"Alhamdulillah, we can finally get one car. huffhh .." Said Salwa while wagging the ticket sheets.

"what are you guys talking about? qo kanya really exciting until asthma laughs rowdy." Salwa.

"there is nothing, salwa" said Ihsan.

"yeah yuk, we're home late." Asyam.

After parking the car in the mosque. Ihsan gave the car keys to Asma.

"Asma, let me take you." Salwa.

"bang ihsan ..." said Asma.

"it's okay, I'll go home by myself." Ihsan.

"asma first yes, bang. assalamu'alaikum." said Asma.

"wa'alaikumsalam warohmatullah."

"san, I go first." said Asyam riding his motorcycle with Liya.

On the way home, Asham told his sister about his heart, about the woman who had captivated him, stuttered his mind and shook his heart with her shade. Liya also revealed that she also likes Asma as a kaka figure. Her face is beautiful, her demeanor is graceful, she said softly, her smile shady.

"well, if not a mate can't be forced, deck." Asyam.

"who was the man who proposed to her ?" Ask Liya.

"mas doesn't know." Answer Asham.

"mas ndak can be prolonged in sadness you know mas. mba asthma is not yet the who it is mas." Liya.

"yes, liya. mas knows." Sahut Asyam with a smile.

In the morning, the teenagers had gathered at the station with their own luggage. Promise a gathering place, directly at the train station. Ihsan and Asma had arrived first, there was still time for her to talk together.

"asthma.."

"hmm .. ?" Sahut Asma who immediately turned to face Ihsan.

"you told the assyam about abi's proposal ?" Ask Ihsan.

"yes. back then I met with kirei and bang dankaman.it seems they quarreled because of feelings. I was honest about my feelings to him." Clear Asthma.

"you're going to reject Abi's proposal for me ?" Ask Ihsan.

"asma will say he will answer when in jogja, this is not yet up to jogja." Joking Asthma with a smile.

Before long, Nadia, Syahrul, Zidan and several other teenage boys approached.

"assalamu'alaikum.." said simultaneously.

"wa'alaikumussalam.." - Ihsan and Asma.

"new both of them bang ihsan ?" Ask Nadia.

"yes, that's it." The answer.

"what time does it travel ?" Ask Nadia.

"god willing at 7." Answer Asma.

"mm. It's 6 o'clock. We should be on standby inside." Nadia.

"stay, bang assyam, salwa, liya and kirei." Sahut Asthma.

"that's them." Syahrul.

"lhoo.. bang fun to bring his sister ?" Firm Nadia.

Asthma got up from her seat.

"Nuha coming, bang ?" Ask Nadia.

"yes, don't want to be left behind." Answer Asham.

"it's okay mba, if you don't get a ticket later, let's use a ticket liya." Liya.

"i tried to order again yes ticket." said Asma who immediately walked and left the goods and followed by Ihsan.

The ticket they wanted was successfully obtained despite different seats but still in the same carriage. All are cool in their respective activities in enjoying the trip. Some listen to music, read books, sleep, read the Qur'an, chat, and others.

Then they were lured. Indeed Ihsan deliberately proposed to rent an inn because he did not want to trouble the Silvi family to welcome them. Everyone took a shower and changed clothes.  Two private cars were waiting for them in the parking lot. There are 2 princess rooms and 2 sons rooms, all customized.

"ayo-ayo hurry, later tonight." Ihsan's Order.

"ayoo, loaded so as not to go back and forth." Nadia.

Back they travel. This time with a sense of happiness to meet old friends. When the car arrived, the eyes of the invited guests were on them. City guests are no less beautiful than the girls in the village, and the young men are also no less handsome. Asma and others pay respect to the invited guests of the village owners, experienced one by one they pass to go to the village.

"ka silvii. barakallahulak." Asthma Vocabulary.

all raised their hands as Ihsan led a prayer for the bride.

"Barakallahulaka wabaraka'alaika wajama'abainakuma fiikhoiir. (may Allah bless you, bless you, and may Allah unite you both in goodness." Ihsan said and amiin-kan by all.

It was time for a much-anticipated meal. Tasting typical Yogyakarta dishes. Eat, talk, greet each other with family, until finally a photo session together arrives and say goodbye to return to the inn.

Salwa and Asma enjoy togetherness in the balcony room, while enjoying the night sky. Staring at the wide-spread flickering stars. A wind swept across his face and fluttered the cloth wrapped around his head. A happy smile was painted on each of their faces.

“asma , may I ask ?” Her speech.

“mau inquire about what, sal ?” Ask Asma.

“someone who now makes me fall in love.” He answered while staring at the balcony next to his room.

“what's the problem ?” Ask Asma.

“I have to do what ?” Ask Salwa.

“you should do nothing, other than pray for it.” Answer Asma.

Salwa turned her gaze to look at Asma who was now looking straight ahead.

“that's what I do when I love someone and when I miss the figure of him.” Obviously Asma turned to the balcony that had been stared at by Salwa.

Two men who had just emerged from behind the door. Their gazes clashed, Asma, Ihsan, Salwa and Asyam.

“it's nine o'clock, we better take a break." Say asthma while stepping into the room.

“well ..” Sahut Salwa who throws a smile and nods his head to Asyam and Ihsan.
