Lailatulqadar (Song of Missing For Fathers)
Chapter 48

Julian just got to his house. He walked up to the top floor where his room was. Julian is still not feeling good about Laila because of Alea's treatment.

Laila may not show her anger, but the girl is more indifferent and only speaks as necessary to Julian. Julian's mission to get Laila seems to be getting harder.

"Julian!" sahut a brown haired woman who was rolled into a bun.

Julian turned his head half-hearted.

"grandmother." Julian waited for the woman he called grandma to walk closer to him.

"Is it true that you're approaching employees in your office?" The woman now began asking questions that were quite surprising to Julian.

Where does his grandmother know if Julian is currently targeting one of his employees who is none other than Laila. Julian started thinking until he found the answer. Yes, it must be Alea who complained to this Grandma.

"Yes Nek, Julian really likes a very special girl again." Julian was forced to be honest no matter how his Grandmother was entitled to know even though Julian was still in the pedekate stage and had no status whatsoever with Laila other than the relationship between superiors and subordinates only.

"Who's the lucky girl? And what makes it look special in your eyes?" ask the Grandma.

"Lucky girl?" Julian scrunched his forehead.

"Yes the girl is lucky to have managed to steal your attention." Granny Julian asserted.

Julian laughed at the words of his grandmother just now.

"I'm the lucky one if I get him. He is special because he is more personal than others. She's sholeha." Julian's eyes were staring at Laila.

Julian's grandmother squinted her eyes at her granddaughter who was kasmaran and was currently probably imagining the figure of the girl she was adoring.

"Sholeha?" Grandma Julian was a little surprised. At first he imagined the figure of a girl as he usually met, which was not much different from Alea. Looking sexy, thick make up with powder 5cm above the surface of the skin, and of course look at Julian in terms of material or commonly called matre girls who pursue wealth Julian. Most women who approached Julian were average like that, not far from the Alea types. But after hearing the word 'sholeha', Granny Julian felt she had misjudged. Even now he was curious and wanted to know who the girl was?

It seemed like Alea's words earlier this afternoon had incited her. Alea denigrated the girl in front of him.

It was natural for Alea to make a point that she might be jealous and want to keep Julian away from the girl. It is also natural that Julian glorifies because he is in love with the girl.

Julian's grandmother didn't want to hear from their mouths about the girl. He must know who exactly is the person who became a controversy between Julian and Alea.

"Miss! I want pesantren dong! If you don't invite Ustad or anyone else to come here to teach me a deeper religious knowledge," Julian said, surprising his grandmother.

"You're not sick anymore, are you?" The old woman put the back of her hand on Julian's eel.

"Aish Grandma! I'm healthy" Julian said.

"It's strange how suddenly you want to learn and deepen the science of religion. Why not before?" reprove him.

"Yes, because his guidance is only coming down now. Ever since I knew Laila." A smile spread across Julian's face.

"Oh so her name is Laila?"

"Lailatul Jannah."

"Masya Alloh, good name." Praise Grandma Julian.

"Good, beautiful as her person and also her heart. That's why I want to study religion because I want to be a good priest for Laila." Julian seemed enthusiastic, making his grandmother feel happy to see many changes to Julian.

Change for the better, attitude, maturity and science. Laila seemed to be a good girl even though she did not come from a distinguished family as Alea had said. But Granny Julian believes that if Laila is able to bring a major change to Julian's life later, now nothing has been seen the effect especially if they are really paired. It feels like Granny Julian will be happy when her only grandchild can get a companion to life that leads to the salvation of the world and the hereafter.

Not only Julian now fantasizes, even Granny Julian also imagined, although she did not know the look of Laila but she could already imagine what kind of attitude the girl, her appearance and her speech.

"Then Grandma will help you, how?"

"So grandma agrees?"

"God willing, Grandma agreed that the girl named Laila had good religious knowledge."

"Ah Grandma is the best! Thanks!" Julian embraced the old woman who had always been understanding to him.

Another with his parents who always cross with his wishes. Both Julian's parents tended to authoritarianly impose their own will without knowing the feelings of their child. Julian's the only child but they don't spoil Julian.

With Julian happily stepping into the room, his grandmother simply stared at Julian's back which was now beginning to vanish behind the bedroom door.

Julian's grandmother began planning to meet with Laila tomorrow afternoon at the office.
