Naila's condition has recovered. He wanted to go back to Pesantren to meet his friends again. His determination was already unanimous, He wanted to go back to what it used to be. Being a diligent and accomplished santri. He'll fix everything, but there's still a chance. His father and mother would be very happy to hear Naila's decision.
“Mother, Naila is bored at home constantly.” Naila said while waiting for her mother who is cooking.
“Terus you want to know what, baby...? Go for a walk or help Mom cook...? ” Naila looks thinking hearing her mother's offer.
“Hmm.. if you can both why choose one, hehe..” His mother grinned at Naila's words.
“Yaudah now help Mom cook first, continue later tonight we go for a walk with Dad..”.
“Assyik..” Naila grabbed the cooking spices that had been formulated by her mother, She began peeling the spices.
“Aw.. ” his index finger was hit by a knife. It just makes fresh blood flow.
“Be careful son. Here I help cleanin..”.
“You must be careful if you hold a knife. Let's not believe it anymore. Itung-itung to learn lo Nai, so later if you are married do not be surprised anymore.” said Naila's mother while giving her son's wounds.
“Ah Mom, Naila is still a child. Why are we talking about marriage. Lagian is usually also not kayak gini if it fits in Ndalem.”
“You ever cooked in Ndalem...? I'm not sure if you can cook. Yesterday only fitting Mother same father met even tea taste salty, haha.” ledek Bu Ania to her son. Naila pursed her lips because she was belittled by the mother.

In the evening at Naila's request, her father took a walk to the square. See flickering night lights along the way. Nai enjoyed every trip. He saw some teenagers sitting by the side of the road. They are in pairs with the opposite sex. Swapping laughter for each other. Maybe if his father hadn't sent Naila to the boarding school he would have been like them. Naila continued to deepen in the heart like that.
“Dad, wait yeah. Stop first..”
“Why Nak..?”
“That's not Della ya bu, my old friend who once lived next door to our house..” Naila watched the teen intending carefully.
“He is like. But the clothes are like that anyway.” said Bu Ania while taking care of the teenager.
“Astaghfirullah..” Naila turned her face when she saw Della sitting there carrying a bottle of drink and wearing minimal clothes. A teenage boy****** his lips are deep. Naila shuddered when she saw the incident until she finally told her father to do the car.
“You why shut up, son.?” asked her father, looking at Naila's expression on the face that suddenly changed.
“You don't like it just Dad took a walk here...? ”
“Bu... Not so Dad, Naila is really cool tonight. Moreover, it has never been like this for a long time.” is indeed true. It has been almost half a year since the holidays Naila can only feel the air of the night like this.”
“Dad, Mother... Naila just realized that Dad's choice was never wrong. Including sending Naila to Pesantren.”
