Pulang Kampung's



After Alifa's energy and time were drained as a student, she felt herself like a tree that had lost its leaves, falling one by one. However, like a trickle of water in the middle of the desert that brings to life a speck, Alifa managed to reach a small moment called "home of the village". Like an oasis in the desert, returning home becomes a breath of fresh air for Alifa who thirsts for family warmth. Finally he can go home for a moment to let go of longing with his family, especially his father and mother. Like a flower in the middle of a barren field, he felt refreshed amid the warmth of the family.


Although it was only a few days, like a coin dropped in a narrow gap, Alifa used every second of it wisely. He knows that time is precious money. Like a smart merchant, Alfa invested his time meticulously, exchanging his tiredness with smiles and togetherness with those he loved.


The first semester was a hopeful holiday for Alifa. Like fireworks that exude beauty for a moment, Alifa chose to take a short semester in order to pursue the target of graduating college within three years. For him, every second and minute was a priceless part of the journey. Like a marathon runner running towards the finish line, Alifa moved her legs at full speed, without looking back.


Although he returned home for only a few days, Alifa did not waste a single drop of this precious time. Like water in the last leaf, he uses his time wisely knowing that time is money, a priceless asset that must be cherished.


In her brief happiness, Alifa felt how precious the moment was. Like a tree that regained its leaves after a heavy rain, Alifa felt himself alive again. He filled his heart with love and family warmth, like the colorful paintings that adorned the walls of his house.


"After going through the storm that rolled his heart, Alifa finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. In the silence of his room, like a bird confined in a cage, he felt a pulse of excitement creeping within his chest. With every neatly folded outfit and packed item, Alifa took every moment as the precious diamond she was going to bring home.

In a room filled with hope, Alifa packs up like an explorer preparing to wade through a sea never before explored. He filled his bag with hopes and dreams, slipping prayers in every corner. Like a protective cloth surrounding a precious treasure, Alifa packed her belongings attentively.


"Finally I can go home too!" exclaiming Alifa while packing. Like a farmer who harvests his hard-earned crops, he feels a sense of relief that infiltrates in his every move. The words jumped around the room, like sparks dancing in the dark night. Alifa felt a tremor of joy, as if she had found the key to open the small heaven door in her heart.


In the excitement of happiness that surrounded him, Alifa felt his spirit wriggling again. Like a butterfly coming out of its cocoon, it is ready to air and explore the outside world. In each lovingly sorted garment and home-grown goods, Alfah carried bright hopes that glimmered like the morning sunshine that greeted the earth.


In a broken smile, Alifa crossed the door of her house with a thumping heart. Like the sun shining down on the earth after a heavy rain, he felt a warmth welcoming him behind the doorway. Alifa stepped inside the house, freeing herself from the shackles of the busy city routine. The fresh air of the countryside breathes it hungry. It was as if giving new energy to his tired soul. Alifa's eyes were fixed on the warm smiles of her parents who were already waiting for her at the door. The wide smile created from the faces of Father and Mother Alifa, was as if a flower blooming in the garden of their hearts. They embrace Alifa lovingly, as if uniting separate threads in a knot of love.


"Welcome, Son!" greet the father of Alifa (Zaidan) with affection. Alifa felt love and warmth that slipped into her as she looked at her beloved faces.


"Welcome home, son!" greet the mother of Alifa (Nisa) with happy sparkling eyes. "We miss you so much."


Alifa smiled happily. "Thank you, Dad, Mom! Alifa misses you so much" she said in a voice filled with excitement.


"Let's sit down and tell a story," Alifa's father asked as he pointed at the sofa in the living room.


Alifa complied and walked towards the sofa. He felt the warmth of the family envelop the room. On the glass table, there was a warm cup of tea that invited him to enjoy the moment with his parents.


"Shortly, isn't Humaira coming home too?" asked Nisa, realizing the whereabouts of Alifa's sister who had been invisible.


Alifa smiled bitterly, "Unfortunately, Brother Humaira is still busy with her PKL report. He wants to finish his studies well. We should give him some support, right?"


Nisa nodded with understanding. He understood that the existence of Alifa in the house was a top priority for now. Although his heart also missed Humaira who was his eldest child, but he understood very well how important the responsibility that Humaira was carrying.


"So much I want to tell you." Alifa said excitedly, her hand holding the teacup tightly.


Alifa's mother rubbed her daughter's hand gently. "We're so eager to hear everything, son. Tell me."


In every word spoken, Alifa carries stories that have danced in his days as a boarding boy and travels on campus. Like a rainbow that graced the sky after the rain, the stories exuded infinite joy and life. Alifa shared the experiences that had shaped her, like a light that illuminated the path in darkness.


"Alifa lives in a small boarding house full of joy, Father. There Alifa met new friends who made the days of Alifa more colorful." Alifa told me excitedly. "While on campus, the tasks given by lecturers every day, give Alifa a new challenge. Alifa felt devastated, but there was an awakening in her to keep fighting."


Alifa's parents listened attentively, smiling as their child described the outside world in colorful words. They could feel the excitement, worry, and also the struggle that Alifa had gone through.


Look at Mother Alifa's eyes full of pride. "We've always supported you, son. You've shown your strength and we're very proud of you."


The dialogue and story that Alifa poured into a door that connected their world. Like threads intertwined into fabric, they strengthen the unshakable bonds of family. The atmosphere in the house was filled with laughter and stories, like water flowing in a river that never stopped.


In the surrounding togetherness, Alifa felt an overabundance of happiness. Like a tree flourishing with deep roots, he felt firm and firm in the midst of his family. The days spent as a boarding boy and on-campus travel, gave him insight and invaluable experience. Alifa felt herself growing and growing, like a flower blooming beautifully in her garden of life.


In the middle of the story, Alifa gave a sincere compliment to her parents. "You are the refuge and the light of my life. Without your presence, I don't know how I can survive the storm that hit me."


Alifa's mother smiled proudly, while Alifa's father was moved. They know that even though Alifa lives a busy life in the city, the love and longing for family never fades in her heart.


That night, the atmosphere at home became warm and full of joy. Alifa and her parents laughed, talked, and had fun together. Although Humaira was not there, they felt her presence in every talk and happiness felt.


During Alifa at home, time was slow. Every precious moment is spent with the family, strengthening an irreplaceable inner bond. Alifa makes use of every second to create beautiful memories that will be remembered forever.


Life in the city might teach Alifa about busyness and challenges, but at home, she learns the true meaning of family and love. In his heart, Alifa was grateful for the good fortune of being able to return home, even though Brother Alifa was not there to be able to feel the warmth and affection of his irreplaceable family. Brother Alifa also came home a week ago. This made Alifa even happier and felt a deep sense of family warmth.

Inside the room adorned with darkness, the night covered the sky like a dense blanket that covered the earth. Alifa laid her body on the bed, as if fused with the silence of the night. His mind floated deep into the darkness, letting his targets appear like flashing stars in the distance.


In the silence that surrounded him, Alifa felt a heavy pressure and expectation seeping within her. Like the moon exploring the night sky, it is fixated on goals to be achieved. Graduating from college in three years, becoming a useful writer, opening a capable business, such as a heavy scale determines his future.


Alifa let her mind dance in the dark sky, imagining herself like an eagle flying high in the sky. He contemplated every step that should be taken, like a trail left on the sand. Those goals were visible as far as the eye could see, but his blazing spirit was tempestuous, like a burning fire in a dark night.


In the stillness that ruled the room, Alifa embraced her dreams tightly. He felt a tremor of constancy and determination within him, like a firm rock in the midst of roaring waves. Alifa let her ideals form wings on her back, ready to fly through space and time.


The night seeped into the heart of Alifa, carrying deep messages. He felt the importance of utilizing every given second, like sand flowing through the fingers. Time becomes an inseparable friend and enemy. Alifa knew that in order to achieve her goals, she had to conquer time wisely and not stand by.


In the darkness that enveloped her, Alifa built a foundation in her mind. He imagined the results to be achieved, like a sturdy house standing in the middle of a dense forest. He clasped tightly to his resolve, like a map directing his steps in the right direction. Night becomes a silent witness of the process he goes through, turning dreams into reality.


Alifa looked at the night sky with unwavering confidence. He decided to continue to face challenges, embracing his targets firmly. In the silence of the night, he discovered a profound strength, like rain that nourishes dry soil. Alifa was sure that with determination and hard work, she would reach the light that illuminated her path, passing through the night into a bright dawn.
