Chapters 2. Kumalas



Zahra :


In this kol car santri who get a scholarship there are 5 students.


Every friend of mine they're with their parents. I'm sad not only because of that, because I lost my grandmother and apparently yesterday was my last meeting with my grandmother.


My sorrow multiplied many times over.


But my tears are over. There was a face with no emotion.


4 My friends tried to cheer me up at all costs. But I'm not interested, I'm just looking at the street in the window of this car.


*Tri Sakti Port Banjarmasin


We finally arrived. We were given each ticket/ticket to enter.


We have not yet left, still waiting for the scheduled departure time.


I saw the sky so bright, with birds circling a very large ship. Kumala Ship.



*Tuuuuuttttttttt......


Tuuuuuuutttttt*.....


A warning for passengers to enter the ship.


We accompanied the kiayi and ustadzah who accompanied us and my friends' parents who did have rations to take their children to the island of Java.


Unfortunately, I was not accompanied by my mother.


Sad !


Yep. Obviously I'm sad.


We also crowded with other passengers, then climbed the stairs to get into the rest area.


Economic class.


The place is like a mattress, there are 2 levels. I got the part of the place above with 1 of my friends. Linda's name.



I stacked my big bag, and then I took my sling bag which was for keeping my wallet and other valuables and I sled. This bag I can't get out of my body wherever I am, even when I go to the toilet. Even when sleeping.


Actually, all the preparations were already my mother prepared. Even my inner lining shirt has a secret pouch. My mother said this is where I put important notes or documents, especially money. The money in the wallet is only part of it. Enough for the journey.


Those are tips for traveling away from my mother. So there is no need to worry about the big bag because the contents are only my clothes and daily supplies.


"Zahra, we're going up dak yuk. He said he could see dolphins . If we are lucky, " said Linda enthusiastically.


"Come, but take the others as well" I said. Well the count comforts my lara heart. Especially this new experience. Just this time I got on this big ship.


After asking permission with kiayi we five accompanied ustadzah anna to surround the ship.


I stood and held the fence of the ship.



Tuuuuttttttttt.....


Tuuuttttt..........


A warning ship to leave.


My friends waved goodbye signs with abandoned families.


I waved, I don't know who I was waving my hand at. I just wave to make it look as if someone took me off. Stupid me...


I left my homeland and headed for an island I had never been to.


The wind hits my hijab. I'll straighten it back out.


The Kumala boat left the dock. The farther away, and the smaller the people on the dock. Small and small and disappear.


Now only the high seas and waves accompanied our journey. My heart is turning blue...


"Hey friends there's dolphins! " Song aya to us. Waving his hand, he called us to go to him.


We walked slowly and watched the dolphin herding along the boat.


a flock of dolphins swim even occasionally jump out of the sea water.


And they changed course and disappeared...


The waves are split and become foam...


"Zahra, someone's watching you. I've seen her always staring at you!" linda said as she rolled her eyes towards the left.


I followed Linda's eyes, turned out to be with a man. Maybe he's older than me by 2 or 3.


I noticed his shirt, it looks like he works on this ship as a crewman.


Realizing he was being noticed, then he approached me and Linda.


While holding the iron fence painted white. She smiles.


"Where are you? " he asked.


"Ke java" I said briefly.


" Yes, you know, more precisely. Emm with who? " ask her back.


"Ke gresik, the same group Pak kiayi" said I.


"Ooh. I know Roy. I work first yaa". He said as he passed, not even thrusting a hand to shake hands.


Linda just smiles while elbowing my shoulders.


" Cieeeee cieee.. Just get on the ship, there is already a crush on you za." said linda seduces me.


I just blushed in shame. We then enjoyed the sea view.


My trip to Java with this ship will take 1 day 1 night.


For about 10 minutes we enjoyed it.


"Yuk we go to the cafeteria, he said there is selling meatballs and others. But yes it is quite expensive, not the same when on land" said linda.


I nodded and followed her footsteps to the cafeteria.


"Heyy want to eat? " ask a man to me.


I also looked surprised.
