Halal Love of the Senior
A matchmaker?

One week before Adi and Adelia's wedding was held, Rendra and Dita held a recitation event in order to celebrate the four months of Dita's pregnancy. All of them also ask for prayers so that their family's Umrah journey will run smoothly and can return to the homeland in good health and safety.

The Mother Goddess family umrah plan, which is planned to be done at the end of the year, was advanced because of the state of Dita who was pregnant. At the end of the year, Dita is already pregnant and is nearing the time of birth so it is not possible to travel far. After having a conversation and consulting with the doctor, it was finally decided they left after the reception of Adi and Adelia. After Umrah, they will immediately travel to Dubai.

At the lecture, Rendra also invited the Emperor, Bara, Baim, Bella and all cafe employees in addition to the mosque congregation, the mother's study group and orphans. They hope that by being prayed for more people, the pregnancy will be smooth until giving birth later. Dita and her baby are healthy and safe.

Before the ceremony began, the Emperor and Bara stopped by Adi's house. Coincidentally the tent for the study event also arrived in front of the terrace of Adi's house. Bara chatted more with Adelia, while the Emperor with Adi.

"Kai, you don't like my sister anymore, do you?" adi asked quietly while looking at the Emperor.

"Removing the taste in an instant is no easy feat, Di. Obviously, I wasn't expecting him anymore. I saw her happy with her husband. Later on over time it will also definitely disappear by itself," replied the Emperor.

"You want me to know Rendra's brother? Just get to know, Kai. Who knows if you guys still have a soul mate. Even if it does not fit, you become more friends," Adi bargained.

The emperor laughed while shaking his head. "So much you want me to forget Dita, Di."

"It's not so, Kai. But I feel sorry for you" said Adi.

"Pity?" Emperor frowning. "Why? I'm fine. I'm okay."

"Later if we go together, you don't have a gang, Kai," he mocked.

"Early, that's doang. Kirain what's up." The emperor laughed loudly.

"Later to finish studying do not go straight home. I want to know you, Kai. He is also alone. His fate is just as rich I was surpassed by his sister," persuaded Adi.

"Yes—iya."

As the guests began to arrive, Adi and the Emperor joined the male congregation, while Adelia joined the female congregation. Adelia sat next to her mother who was next to Hasna.

The study event was opened by Bara who acts as the host. Before the recitation began, recited the holy verse of the Qur'an brought by a hafiz cilik— which is one of the orphans of the foundation commonly donated by the Mother Goddess family.

After that, Rendra gave a welcome. He thanked everyone for coming. He asked for prayers that the pregnancy and birth of Dita will be smooth. Dita and her child are also healthy and safe during labor. In addition, he also apologized and prayed so that his family could carry out Umrah smoothly, and arrived back home healthy and safe.

Ustaz Faharudin then gave his tausi. The content of this time is about the procedure of caring for and educating children according to Islam. After tausiah, Ustaz Faharudin prayed for Dita and her baby, as well as the family of the Mother Goddess who will leave Umrah.

After that the event was closed by Bara. Guests are then welcome to enjoy the dishes provided by the host.

The event was completed on time before Azan Zuhur reverberated. The guests who came home with chiffon cake from one of the famous bakeries in Jogja. Not to forget Rendra and Dita also gave compensation to every orphan who came.

When Azan reverberated, the men went to the mosque to perform the Zuhr prayer. While the women pray at home. After prayers they still mingle at the house of the Goddess Mother.

"Ai, here," called Adi to his wife who was sitting chatting with Shasha.

Adelia got up and approached her husband. "What's up, Mom?"

"Please bring Shasha here, Ai. Let me introduce Kai, ", Adi replied.

Adelia nodded and smiled. He walked back to Shasha. After he spoke to Shasha, they walked over to Adi.

"What's looking for me, Mom?" shasha asked Adi.

"This is my friend, Kai," said Adi, patting the bowed Emperor on the shoulder, typing something into his gawai.

"Kai, this is Shasha. Shasha introduce this Emperor." Adi introduced each other.

Emperor looks up. She and Shasha were both shocked when they saw each other.

"This is Mas Kai, Tirta's brother, right?" shasha asked unsure.

"Yes, I'm Tirta's brother. Isn't your name Alesha?" The emperor frowned.

"Yes my name is Alesha, but at home I am called Shasha" Shasha said.

Emperor nodded. "Oh, yeah—ya."

"Lho, you two know each other already." Adi gawks at the Emperor and Shasha who already look familiar.

"Yes, Mas Adi. Mas Kai is Tirta's brother, my friend from college. I used to play with their rent when I was in college. Sometimes I meet Mas Kai when I'm not in service" Shasha explained.

"Well, it happens that dong if you already know each other so easy," said Adi.

"What's it like, Mom?" Shasha frowned not understanding what Adi meant.

"It looks familiar" Adi said as he glanced at the Emperor.

"Here Sha we chat together," asked Adi.

"Yes, Mum." Shasha sat down near the Emperor.

"Where is Tirta, Mas Kai?" asked Shasha who seemed enthusiastic about talking about her college friend.

"Alhamdulillah good. Have you guys never been in contact?" The Emperor looked at Shasha.

"Tirta's number is missing, Mas. I used to keep it on my old phone. I forgot to back up to the email. My phone's broken, lost all contact." Shasha expressed her reason with guilt.

"I'll ask for Tirta's number, Mas" continued Shasha.

Emperor nodded. "May, I'll give you."

"Where's the working tyre, Mas? What's she married yet?" Shasha asked the Emperor a question.

"Tirta is an ASN now. Not long ago, he finished his pre-departure and was appointed ASN. He is not married yet" replied the Emperor calmly.

"Cool tirta. He's in Jogja, isn't he in the service?" ask Shasha again.

Emperor shakes. "Not in Jogja but in Magelang."

"Oh, close to that," muttered Shasha.

"The Emperor himself is in contract" Shasha guessed.

"It's accompanied so he's not alone anymore, Sha." Adi interrupts the Emperor and Shasha's conversation.

Shasha looked at Adi. "What do you mean, Mom?"

"Yes, you can play there to accompany the Emperor," said Adi with a nosy laugh.

Shasha sneered at Adi after she realized that she was being teased by Rendra's sister-in-law.

"Where do you work yourself, Sha?" ask the Emperor to melt the atmosphere.

"I work at a public accounting firm, Mas" Sasa replied.

"Your work is also cool," the Emperor praised sincerely.

"It's normal, Mom. So my private labourer, not the state employee," shasha continued.

"Rules in private are tight, Mas. Cannot marry for 2 years. Get out of town if you have a job. It could be a month, it could be just a day. Depends on what's handled." Shasha explained her work.

The Emperor nodded when he heard Shasha speak. "Is that what the contract is not to marry?"

"Yes, there, Mas. It is required to focus on work for two years. Two years later, be free."

"Now is under contract?" ask Adi who again interrupts Shasha and the Emperor.

"November is two years" replied Shasha.

"Well, little brother." Adelia followed.

"Yes, not for another 4 months."

"There's no candidate yet?" ask Adi jokingly.

"What candidate, Mas?" Shasha asked back with a laugh.

"Yes, the husband-to-be" Adi replied.

"Yet. Wh why? Does Adi want to know me as someone?" Shasha looked at Adi.

"That's what you know. The plan is I want to know you. As far as I know you are both single so no problem right. Your age is also enough to get married," said Adi.

Shasha let out a big laugh after hearing Adi's words. How could Adi have thought of setting him up with the Emperor. He also has not thought about getting married. He wanted to pursue a career while still young and free to move anywhere.

"Why laugh?" adi asked with a frown.

"Mas Adi is funny" Shasha replied.

"What's funny, Sha. I seriously. You are both adults. At least you can get to know each other better. If it fits well continued, do not just be friends," said Adi with a serious mimic.

Shasha stopped her laughter. He then looked at the Emperor.

"Does Mas Kai think the same as Mas Adi?" shasha asked without saying anything.

"That's what Adi wants. After I thought about it, you can try if you want" replied the Emperor.

Shasha smile. "I open up friendships with anyone. But I can't easily open my heart."

"Yes, then we are friends" the Emperor extended his hand.

Shasha also reached out. They then shake hands as a sign they are starting to make friends. They chatted again as usual.

"What number is Tirta, Mas Kai?" shasha asked when the Emperor wanted to go home.

"083—," said the Emperor but interrupted Shasha.

"Duh Mas, sorry. I forgot my phone was in the room." Shasha cupped both hands in front of the chest.

"Oh, yes you have mentioned your number, I will send you later," said the Emperor to give a solution.

"08384033xx." Shasha mentioned the number.

"08384033xx." The Emperor repeated the number of Shasha so as not to be mistaken.

"Yes, right."

"OK, this is directly I sent," the Emperor said as he typed in his gawai.

"Thank you, Kai." Shasha smiled at the Emperor.

"Together." The Emperor returned Shasha's smile.

"Uhuk, progress has been tukeran nih number," Adi's tease.

The Emperor only laughed in response to Adi's temptation, while Shasha sneered at Dita's older brother.

"I go home first, sorry I can't stay long. There is a duty of the state" said the Emperor.

"Thank you, Mas Kai, already want to come to pray for Dita," said Shasha.

"Where is the same Rendra? I want to share with them." The emperor was looking for those two lovebirds.

"They are inside. Just go in yuk Mas, I'll take you inside." Shasha invited the Emperor into the house to meet Rendra and Dita and the rest of the family.
