"Son Ayesha, please take care of Khadijah if you ever meet him. And please give this to him if you meet later. Because I believe son Aisyah is a kind woman and I entrust this trust to son Aisyah."
The shining light made both my eyes feel so glare. The hoarse voice rang in my ear, pleading with compassion. Even to remove clear water from the end of the eye patch. And it succeeded in making me feel devastated and expressed a promise to him to fulfill that trust. I don't know who the woman named Khadijah is. However, when I strongly recalled that it suddenly the light that was shining instantly turned dark. There are no shadows or lights I can see anymore.
"Wake up, baby! You're having a nightmare?"
There was a faint sound of a voice I knew, even very familiar with that voice. The voice of my own husband, he was trying to wake me up by gently rubbing my cheek. And slowly I opened my eyes and swept the ceiling in my room and tried to remember it. Upon awakening, I immediately got up and said as much as Istighfar as possible to recall my Lord.
"Aisha, what are you dreaming about?"
For a moment I was silent while remembering a dream that made me re-enthusiastic to meet Khadijah immediately. However, I did not want to say it to Yulian, because I did not want Him to know what my other purpose was other than that trust. So I was just telling you about the light that shone brightly and then disappeared. And Julian believed what I told him, even though in my little heart I wanted to say it all, but I couldn't.
"Already, we better take ablution for evening prayer. So that your heart also feels calm." Yulian stroked my hair and smiled faintly.
And I can only nod slowly to answer it. Then, we immediately took ablution water to perform sunnah tahajud prayer. That is done after waking up but, before the sound of the dawn Adhan is heard with excitement. And we did two things together, remembering Allah the Creator of All.
"Oh my God, my Lord. If You want the meeting I want with Khadijah, then bring the right time for us to meet. And I as Your servant ask to stretch my chest in the face of all the trials that You test in life that will stop at some point. Aamiin's." My hand also moved to assure the chanting of my prayers to Allah SWT.
After running two rakaat, the heart and self also get calm. After that, Yulian asked me to immediately go back to rest because, the clock still shows two o'clock in the morning. And I also agree to Yulian's invitation. Likewise with Yulian who helped lay down his body while holding me back, which made me sleep in a long enough sleep.
"My thoughts...." The sound of roosters crowing.
I slowly opened my eyes and soon I heard the sound of the dawn prayer being echoed. And it made me immediately rush to the bathroom to refresh my body under the shower splash. After fifteen minutes, I went back to doing two rakaats, but this time two rakaats were mandatory. Where in the two rakaat the angel has witnessed it directly.
As usual, after praying I recognized reading the Quran. And at exactly five o'clock I decided to put an end to my activities, then woke Yulian who was still sound in his sleep. Because I don't want to if, Yulian missed two rakaat mornings before the sun shone brightly and made the city of Medan yellow.
"Dad, don't forget the warm coffee is prepared, yes!"
"Yes, Mum." I throw a smile at Yulian.
The message was also said from the thick lips of Yulian before I headed to the kitchen to make some dishes that provide ammunition in the body in the morning before doing the usual activities. And after confirming Yulian's request, I immediately stepped in to make a cup of warm coffee that I would put on a small table, precisely in the side room. Because, there the morning air is good to breathe with some green plants that decorate it, like a flower garden.
My memory is still centered on Mrs Ratih, trust and Khadijah. And it made me momentarily daydream, so I was surprised at the sudden presence of Inem's bik. Although I know that bik Inem does not mean to surprise me, but yes .. his name is also dreamy. It only focuses on the pseudo-shadow and the speck of hope in the soul.
"Bu Aisyah why? Not usually Aisyah's mom daydreams in the morning, especially in the kitchen room again." Sapa bik Inem.
Immediately my daydream was broken, then realized the situation and position I was still in the kitchen. And when I realized, I said Istighfar because, the vegetables that I should have cooked well, now I still have not finished cutting. So I patted my jidad slowly. Even I apologized to bi Inem for having to burden him to help me cook.
"Oh, sorry, bik! I think ... My mind is mixed, so. Bik Inem please help me this morning!"
"Well, Miss Aisyah. Ready it!"
Finally, Inem and I immediately fought with some beloved kitchen tools. And our cohesiveness has produced a perfect result. We even finished the battle in time. And now the clock has shown at half-seven in the morning. Where the time for breakfast together will soon be held, and I also call everyone who is a resident in this house, including Arumi.
"Tok, tock, tock." I knocked slowly on Arumi's room door.
"Square." That door is open.
Arumi slowly opened the door, then let me into her room. And for me this morning was a fitting meeting to tell Arumi about my dream last night. Because only Arumi knows all my secrets about my trust and desire. And after I told all to Arumi, he also enthusiastically wanted to immediately find the existence of Khadijah in the city of Medan.
"Today, I'm going to jump right in to find Khadijah's place to live. Because I really want to see her soon, Arumi. And I also do not want to be constantly haunted by the trust of Mrs Ratih." I stared hard at Arumi.
"But Aisyah, how do you find her place? The field is very large." Arumi moved from her seat and then, she stared at the dense city of Medan from behind the window.
"I will try in my own way, Arumi. After breakfast together, I'll be gone soon." I imagined how my footsteps would walk to find Khadijah.
"I will accompany you, Aisha. Because I don't want you to be exhausted in the enthusiasm that makes you so stubborn." Arumi.
I also agreed to Arumi's request by nodding slowly. After we talked to each other, we decided to head to the dining room and immediately do our morning activities there. And once in the dining room, all are preparing to take a comfortable sitting position to do breakfast together.
