In the backyard of a beautiful house, Ummi sat staring at the Rendi mango plant, which began to lush its leaves, as well as the vine that began to propagate to the wooden arrangement, which began to grow, yang Abah strung together to form the roof as an activity during the break of teaching and worship.
“If it is silent, dzikir, do not say hello,” said Abah surprised Ummi who was dumbfounded. Abah then walked towards the bathroom and opened his new robe he used to pray. Abah also put in a dirty laundry room not far from Ummi's place.
Now Abah just put on a white shirt and a sarong and then approached Ummi.
Ummi turned to her husband who had just returned from the boarding school and Ummi got up to greet her husband, grabbed his right hand and kissed him, as a sign of his respect and service as a wife.
“Ummi Akbar's thoughts, Bah!” Ummi.
Abah then sat on his favorite bench in the backyard.
Yes, the backyard of Abah's house is indeed made a garden that can immediately see a wide and beautiful stretch of rice fields. Sometimes slapping green plants, sometimes golden if you want to harvest. It feels cool and soothing. Ummi and Abah could look up at the unfurled sky and the birds were flying. Even so still limited small fence as the boundary of the house, also vegetable garden fruit plants and flowers Ummi plants.
Ummi sat down on the wooden bench next to Abah.
“Moreover is it?” ask Abah.
“Ck. Ummi just called Nila, Akbar hasn't come home. He said two days, it's been 3 days. Kasian Nila Bah!” the speech of Ummi implies his sadness.
Yes the day has passed, Ummi and Abah have returned to the boarding school and are working on their days as usual. Even so, Ummi never miss calling Nila, making video calls to Nila and Rendi, until Nila is confused because both parents and the besanya attention all. Especially when they call together even though at one time Nila and Rendi are video friendly want both and more in the team.
“Your son has signed a contract, as a pledge to become a teacher who is ready to be assigned there. Fulfilling promises, fulfilling responsibilities, is mandatory. Plus if intended to share useful knowledge, if the intention is because God is also worship, noble. Yes let him fulfill his duty!” replied Abah calmly.
“Ummi know. I mean Ummi, the work is not so, indeed only Akbar can? He just got out, new! For all these years he was the young man who was told this much, not his wife? Should have let it rest first!” replied Ummi again complaining to her husband about the contents of the heart that disturbed her.
“Yes the name works it takes sacrifice including time, it is natural! Nila learned to understand,” replied Abah again.
“Then, Ummi sure Nila knows. But still, Kasian Nila. Ummi inginya already Rendi do not need to teach there. Get out! Sell the house, make it here. Ngajar here in his own village, Ummi agrees with the idea of Mas Handoko and Farid. We can open a university here. It's okay to pioneer his students a little!” said Ummi spoke at length times the height of his mind wanted to enlarge his life, so that his pesantrenya not only to the remains of the Aliyah Madrasah, but also the university.
Abah the husband, quietly listening. After Ummi finished talking, Abah sighed for a moment, then glanced at the table, where, Ummi had prepared a cup of coffee, because it was mandatory.
Abah also sneaked his coffee plan, gulping it down with pleasure.
But Ummi still looks pretty.
“Fatma House is soon so, who will occupy this house if we are not around! Mr. Ardi seems to want to control and manage everything, Ummi kasian same Akbar! Rich dictated!” continued Ummi the nature of women and her mother is still very obvious.
No, Abah also put his coffee cup slowly and smiled looking at his beloved wife who had given birth to 3 children.
If you do not know Ummi, at first glance Ummi impressed chatty and assertive, that's why the orange used to not like. But actually Ummi heart sincere and very attentive to all that he cares about. That is the advantage of Ummi for Abah, in addition to his beautiful appearance and makes Abah very dear to Ummi. Ummi was also silent which gave many ideas to Abah for the progress of the pesantrenya.
“Mi.. so that person should be grateful a lot,” Abah said slowly.
“Don't be greedy either," Kok greedy Bah
"Patience!" continued Abah.
"Yes. Ummi's been patient, right?" answer Ummi.
"If you're patient, don't get angry!"
"Ummi wasn't angry. Ummi was just a story of Ummi's desire to Abah!" answer Ummi again.
Abah then took his seat and looked at the mango tree as well, then Abah turned to Ummi.
"Yesterday Alloh test us with concern, Akbar almost lost with the woman of his college friend, Alloh saved through Orange. Alloh then make another test for Akbar, feeling pain denied Nak Jingga, Alloh love Nila. Thank you again for the test, we almost lost Nila, but look, Nila and Akbar are now united. Point what? Husnudzon, tawakal, has celebrated on Alloh. Let the children go through their own lives so that they mature. As parents we pray!” answer Abah Panjang.
“Yes that's right, but we can direct them, we tell them our hope. Then do your best?” Connect Ummi.
“If Ummi is so, how is it different from Mr Ardi?” asked Abah in a short question.
“Gleg!” Ummi swallowed his saliva choked.
Yes, Baba Ardi also expressed his will.
“You are Akbar's mother, don't be chatty and complain much, prayer! Just prayer. We don't set them up too much. Let the above determine the nets. If Ummi believes in prayer, if Ummi wants Akbar and Nila here. Express our desire is the same Allaah, it is also we can not be meaning, whatever His will, grateful. One important thing, do not mix and dictate them!” close Abah firmly commemorates Ummi.
“Astaghfirullohal’adzim.Ya Bah. Sorry Ummi!” answer Ummi listlessly.
Abah sighed and finished his coffee.
“Same talk Syamsul there is an invitation later at noon. Abah wants to sleep, wake Abah ya!” abah pamit.
Ummi nodded in understanding, but Ummi was still sitting in his place.
Ummi looked back at the mango tree of the Rendi plant, which was planted when Rendi punished Abah. Ummi sighed deeply, digital prayer beads coiled around his finger and returned Ummi Movement because it had paused daydreaming and chatting with Abah.
“Ya Alloh, yes Rahman yes Rahim. Is it wrong for you to wish my son and my man to come back here and live here with me? But how? You are the Lord of the heavens and the earth, show Your power and Way,” Ummi shouts in your heart while pondering.
Yes, since Ummi saw Baba's treatment when they were together, Ummi's heart as Mother Rendi became restless and wanted Rendi or Nila not to live in the Capital, but with her.
Ummi wants Rendi to be a husband who is “Kajen” or has authority. Ummi does not like his boys if arranged in-laws. Ummi wants Rendi to be a leader who dashing to organize his own household.
But Ummi was also confused, how to realize his dream. It is true that Abah said that Ummi asked for and forced the fall was not wise like Baba.
