After he finished calling his father, Alifa returned to the dorm room to get ready to pray dhuhur in the pesantren mosque. It has become a routine obligation that must be obeyed all santriwati who are not prevented from following the five time congregation in the mosque.
There is a little tausiyah from ustadzah babysitter in every finished congregation. Sometimes ummi khasanah or kyai Abdullah himself who gives tausiyah.
The peaceful life that Alifa had felt since she lived in the pesantren was so much she was grateful. Although in the beginning of his presence in this boarding school is very make him feel wasted from the family and hate his father and brother, but not for now. Alifa is so grateful for her life. A peaceful and baroque life that always brings true peace of heart. Although many things must be sacrificed, but Alifa did not regret it. For example, Alifa had to lose a childhood that people said was a time where loving from family. Play as happy as possible, in spoiled everyone, but alifa's childhood was just behind it.
Alifa small in demand to learn and continue to learn. When his friend had a break, Alifa had to take Tahfiz classes which only had a few children. The science of memorization of the Qur'an has become a mandatory menu for Alifa every day. No wonder, if now Alifa was accustomed to a disciplined life.

In the boarding school, there is no term santriwati carrying a cell phone, it is very forbidden as long as they are studying in this boarding school.
"Assalamu'alaikum Alifa..!"
"eek... Waalaikumusalam ustadzah!" reply Alifa who was shocked because suddenly there was an ustadzah sitting next to her. Alifa immediately salim the ustadzah with reverence while shifting herself to give place to the ustadzah Mia.
"Why are you sitting alone in a mosque? Didn't you have Alifa's lunch?"
"Later the endadzah, usually if after praying this is still crowded to take food."
"Alifa, I heard you were appointed kyai to attend the musabaqoh event ?"
" Right ustadzah..! Actually I myself still do not have the confidence to participate in the event. pulbar musabaqoh is still far from my thoughts ustadzah.I am still nervous to follow the prestigious race."
"Don't be made all that burden, you are chosen because you have the ability of Alifa. You are an intelligent child, show that you are capable. Learn and continue to improve the quality of your voice. Keep practicing..!"
"Okay, I will try to let God ease my path."
"Continue your struggle to conquer the pulpit, boy..! You're a kid with great potential, don't be pessimistic..! Through all well, God willing the results will follow."
Alifa got a lot of wobble from the Ustadzah of Mia. He was very attentive to Alifa. because Mia's ustadzah is a witness to how the beginning of the struggle of Alifa lived in the boarding school.
"god willing, I will try hard ustadzah. Please pray and guide."

In addition to his father and brother, Alifa always get support from kyai, ustadz and ustadzah who always support Alifa. Many friends who always support the step of Alifa.
