...10. Transfer confidence...


Khadija.


Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi.


Assalamualaikum warahmatullahi.


Kha turned to the right at the first tasliom reading and then turned to the left after.


Astaghfirullhal ‘azhim alladzi ilala huwal hayyul qoyyum wa atbu ilaih.


Trdf... Trdf....


The phone vibrated while Kha was still making dhikir-dzikir. Ummi's name with capital letters all on his phone.


Assalamualaikum princess Ummi. What else is Teteh Kha?


“Waalaikumsalaam Ummi's. Ummi how are you? Kha just finished Dhuha.”


Alhamdulillahot. Ummi, Abi, Syamier as Gamya Sehat. What about Teteh Kha? Healthy? Maafin Ummi for not having time to visit Jakarta. There are a lot of things that Abi can't finish.


“Neither Ummi--”


That morning, on the second floor of the hill. Kha spent time chatting with Ummi. He told about the progress of the flower shop, the cooperation of the store with the Riz wedding organizer, also the increase of employees from what was once only Dipa, now there are Asti, Boim, Singgih, and 5 other employees, and there are now, also occasionally assisted by Adskhan.


Kha ends his conversation with Ummi when Dipa approaches him on the second floor.


“There's Blue under.” Kha nodded and folded his face back, not forgetting that he had an apron on his neck. Upon arriving at the bottom floor, Kha found no one there except employees who were busy with their respective jobs.


Tringg.


The sound of a small bell from above the door made Kha turn her body, she saw Blue coming in.


“Where is your phone?” The Blue Question made Kha frown. “Tadi Aunty Risa telfon, but you're another call. The WO party wants to meet this afternoon, all follow the photo shoot that was delayed.” said Blue without looking, his eyes were directed at the phone in his hand.


Today Dipa is much more adept at handling flower orders. Therefore, Asti who is now in charge of accompanying when there is work outside. Like him, Blue added a few employees in the studio, even more than his flower shop employees. It's been two days that the studio has been busy rearranging the cubicles of the workbench.


“Bareng aja let's all.” Blue is not an offer, because before boarding the car, Blue first opens the back door. No matter, there was Asti who accompanied, Blue was also accompanied by two employees, one male and one female. Fadli and Moya, Blue employees introduced themselves.


...🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼...


Kha checked the minutes of the meeting with the WO that contained the project schedule for the next month. There are many events that Kha must prepare, ranging from decorating for engagement events, prewedding photos, as well as gender-reveal events. To start, Aunty Risa as the Founder wants Kha to get used to small projects before later having to be ready for big projects such as decorating weddings and such.


Blue raised wrist to look at the clock. “If it is not wrong at the intersection of the road there is a mosque, you can stop by first.” replied Blue.


10 Minutes from the restaurant, Blue Car turns left and enters the mosque courtyard. Asti and Moya follow Kha's steps towards the sanctuary, while Fadli and Blue are still in the parking lot.


When Kha finished praying, Asti and Moya were no longer beside him, maybe they first went out, Kha folded the mukena and returned to the original place, then followed the others.


When Kha was ready to pray earlier, he saw Blue still standing where he is now, and still with the same position when Kha came out, most likely Blue did not pray. Kha approached Blue who was crouching beside the car.


“Which other one, Mas?”


“Buy drink” reply Blue short.


Several times on the same occasion, Kha also never saw Blue doing his duty, whereas as Kha knows, Blue is a Muslim. That made Kha dare to ask Blue.


“Mas, no prayers?” Blue answered by raising an eyebrow, prompting Kha to open the chat. “Honey, even though it is in front of the mosque.” quipped Kha with his soft voice.


Seconds, two seconds, three seconds, up to 30 seconds Blue just opened the sound.


“Those who are seen never before their God does not mean they do not know religion. Perhaps there are many things that make him embarrassed to just raise his hand.”


Kha was silent, he still did not agree with the way of mind of people who were able to leave God just because of the harsh reality received or for other reasons. Naturally, Kha thought that way, because he grew up under the tutelage of parents who are conditioned to religion.


“Have you heard? if man is God's noblest creature?” Blue answered Kha's question with a nod.


“Saking majesty, we as humans are always privileged. How not special, even human error as much as foam in the sea is always God forgive.” Kha said.


“Then because we feel many sins, which in the end lead to laziness and slowly leave our obligations as a glorified people. Though what God asks is not much, 24 hours from us God only asks a little for 5 times. In addition, Dhikr and shalawat we can still do on the sidelines of activities.”


Kha looked down as her gaze met Blue, the look of the male eyes in front of her was unpredictable. Not knowing what Blue was thinking, Kha was just trying to remind Blue of his obligations as a Muslim.


Blue glanced deep at the terrace of the mosque and said “I'm not sure my prayers were accepted.”


Kha's smile expands upon hearing it, meaning Blue only has a lack of confidence in God's acceptance by his worship.


“Do not negative thingking. No need to worry about your prayers being accepted or not. The important thing is that once the muezzin cries out, assume God is calling and you must hurry to the Mosque. Do not compete do not need God, until now you are still given the breath and proof that God is still waiting for you to return to the right path.”


Blue bergeming. The man twirled the phone in the hand without even returning Kha's talk.


“That they came.” Kha pointed at his friends who were walking towards them. Blue stand, but then passed leaving Kha with mutter “Thanks already transferrin confidence.”


Kha's eye tails continued to follow where Blue was walking. As soon as Blue entered the ablution, Kha smiled as she muttered “Alhamdulillah...”.
