The Wali Santri Meeting

Today, Pondok Hidayah held a meeting with all the santri guardians. Preparations for preparation have been prepared several ndalem bidarah since yesterday afternoon.

Anggoro and Prastowo were invited specifically to accompany Ajimukti with Dullah, Ali and Faruq, later. Actually, the pesantren had also sent a special invitation addressed to Kyai Aminudin. But since then there has been no sign of Kyai Aminudin in the pesantren.

According to the small meeting that Ajimukti held. The event will be filled by Ali as the oldest pesantren teacher and considered the most qualified.

On the stage of the event, Faruq was heard leading the Maulid reading as a pre-event today. Ali soon caught up with him on stage. Some qasidah was heard several times with the accompaniment of Hadrah pesantren.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Anggoro, Prastowo and Dullah seemed to enjoy the flow of qasidah in front of them. Sometimes their smiles grow.

Ajimukti himself seems restless. It was as if he was thinking something. Many times he paced back and forth beside the stage of the event.

Ajeng who had been sitting with Sumiatun several times stole a glance and noticed the behavior of Ajimukti. Before long he stood up and walked over to Ajimukti. Sumiatun who saw that just silently silently smiled then shook his head lightly.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Kang." Ajeng said so not far from Ajimukti.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, sir." Sahut Ajimukti while smiling towards Ajeng who arrived was already nearby.

"Kok, you're here, Kang. Why not join the rest of the scene?" Ask Ajeng afterwards.

"Ah, later, brother. I'll be there too." Sahut Ajimukti is short but his face still shows anxiety.

"Is there anything else Kang Aji is thinking about?" Tanya Ajeng wanted to know.

Ajimukti turned towards Ajeng, then smiled, "Yes, brother. But it's okay."

"Emmm..." Ajeng did not intend to continue the question, even though his curiosity had not disappeared.

Manan who intended to approach Ajimukti rolled back his steps once he saw there was Ajeng there. But once Ajimukti saw Manan. And now, Ajimukti called Manan.

Inevitably Manan had to go back around his body and approach Ajimukti.

"There's another muter, Nan. Where you going?" Ask Ajimukti later.

Manan bumbling, trying to find the right excuse, "Oh, that, Jik. I forgot something was missing." Sahut Manan reasoned, because it is impossible for him to clearly tell the reason for turning back.

"Oh, what do I think is going on." Manan can breathe a sigh of relief Ajimukti did not continue his question, otherwise he does not know what else to reason with Ajimukti.

Manan can cover it from Ajimukti, but not from Ajeng. The silent goblin realized that Manan's answer just now was just an excuse.

"Oh, yes, Jik. I don't take that forgetfulness first, do I?" Manan then said. He just wanted to give Ajeng a chance to enjoy his togetherness with Ajimukti at this time.

Ajimukti just nodded, while Ajeng turned to him, just then Manan looked at Ajeng. Manan blinked one eye, Ajeng blushed and felt right over all his conjectures.

"Kang Aji, can you ask me something?" Ajeng said then after a few they were silent to each other.

Ajimukti turned towards Ajeng who for a moment bowed, "Ask what, brother? Just ask me don't hesitate." He said then to Ajeng.

Ajeng seemed hesitant to continue his desire to ask. But seeing Ajimukti waiting, Ajeng finally dared himself to continue his question.

"Emmm, is Kang Aji going to stay here? Do you mean to take care of this pesantren?" Ajeng asked although a little hesitant but the words from his question were clear.

Ajimukti sighed, "It seems so, brother. This pesantren trust Sewah for the father and I happen to be the only father. But there are also still some things that burden my mind if I can be honest."

Hearing Ajimukti's answer for a moment Ajeng smiled happily, although after that his heart was filled with curiosity, what burdened Ajimukti.

Ajimukti turned his head back and threw a smile towards Ajeng, "First obviously Sibu, dik. The rest is Fadhlun Muthoriq. However, in Jogja I also have Fadhlun Muthoriq which is also the same trust left by my father." Ajimukti looks agitated when saying that.

A little Ajeng understands the anxiety Ajimukti feels. However, it is not easy to make a decision between the two choices. But deep in Ajeng's deepest heart, Ajeng hopes that Ajimukti will stay in this city, in this pesantren.

Meanwhile, on the stage of the event, Faruq was heard to have reached the end of the Maulid event. That means, soon today's event will start soon. One last qasidah, shortly after Faruq closed the pre-event today.

Ajimukti was just about to invite Ajeng to join Anggoro, Prastowo and Dullah, when there arrived a BMW i8 Coupe car that was so memorized Ajimukti drove to the mosque yard and stopped there, follow one other car that also stops right next to the luxury car.

From the silver painted car, came out a handsome young man with a high posture with a smile that just expands immediately upon seeing the figure of Ajimukti. While in another car, another young man appeared to open the back door of the car with courtesy. From the back door of the car came a middle-aged woman who immediately made Ajimukti run towards the middle-aged woman.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Sibu." Ajimukti immediately grabbed the woman's hand and kissed her several times after that without hesitating to hug the woman.

"Ruby, Le? Everything's fine, right?" Ask the woman who is none other than Nyai Kartika, the mother of Ajimukti shortly after answering the greeting of her son.

"Alhamdulillah, ma'am." Said Ajimukti sumringah, then turned to a young man who had been waiting for him to be greeted, "Ah, Kang Sobri." Ajimukti soon embraces the young man named Sobri. He is the only child of Dullah.

"Pripun kabare, Gus? I've missed the same wejangane wejangane Gus Aufa." Said Sobri who could no longer hold back his longing for his Gus.

"I'm not going to give any advice first, but later Kang Sobri will have to listen to a myriad of my stories." Sahut Ajimukti who also missed his friend and brother.

Dullah who saw the arrival of Nyai Kartika also Sobri immediately rushed up from his seat and stepped quickly towards them in the follow Anggoro and Prastowo.

"Mbak Yu, how are you? Of course not forgetting about me, right?" Anggoro said later.

Nyai Kartika just smiled, "All Kang Salim's comrades in arms, none of which I will forget, Kang Anggoro." Nyai Kartika said with a tone of speech is still like when he was young.

"Of course with me, Ms Yu will definitely remember?" Sela Prastowo from behind Anggoro's back.

"I forgot a little, Kang. But Kang Prastowo's cut chicken might be by me." Nyai Kartika a little make all immediately release his happy laughter.

Before long, Ali and Faruq stepped off the stage and met Nyai Kartika. All eyes were on the arrival of Nyai Kartika at this time. The santri guardians just look at each other to see the figure of a middle-aged woman who seems very reluctant by the pesantren influence. And that made them astonished. The santri guardians had not seen Kyai Aminudin and other ndalem families.

Shortly after, Ali and Faruq immediately invited Nyai Kartika to the front seat of the stage which was deliberately prepared for all special invited guests. It's just that the invitation seat for Kyai Aminudin until now still looks empty.

The event began, Ali immediately conveyed the purpose and purpose of the pesantren invited all the santri guardians today. Ali explained about some of the problems that happened with without dropping Kyai Aminudin.

All the santri and wali santri seemed to nod with the explanation that Ali conveyed. Ali explained to everyone who came to the show today who would continue to be the nanny of the boarding school.

Suddenly, Ali called out to Ajimukti. All eyes were on Ajimukti with astonishment when he saw the figure of the pesantren nanny who still looked so young.

"He is Gus Aufa I mean. His name is Ajimukti Aufatur Muthoriq, he is the son of Kyai Salim Muthoriq, founder and caregiver of Pesantren Hidayah's cottage." Ali said after Ajimukti stood in front of everyone present.

Among all those present, there were two young men who were so shocked. They are Khalil and Imam. They seemed to tremble after seeing the reality before them.

Ajimukti began to speak before all the invited guests present at the event today. From the way of speaking also Ajimukti's insight, making those present confident in the abilities possessed by Ajimukti.

Event after event continues to take place on the stage of the pesantren event today. Without anyone noticing, a young girl silently watched the event from behind the gate wall of the boarding school.

Her shady face covered in a pink hijab was in line with the canal she was wearing. Highlight his eyes sparkled, his smile occasionally expanding as his eyes caught the figure of the young man who so admired him.

"Why are you even just here? Why don't you just go in?" Suddenly the voice of someone from behind shocked him and made his heart beat fast. For a moment his body trembled.
