Lafadz Love at Pesantren

Decisions

The rising sun gave off its golden radiance. That morning it will be Abi and Umi's decision to take Rizal to the boarding school.

"Rizal, after the dawn prayer meet Abi same umi ya on the terrace" said Syafa.

"Why brother?"ask Rizal.

"Don't know either, the same umi cuman tell you to the terrace to finish praying" said Syafa.

After the dawn prayer, Rizal immediately met Abi and Umi on the terrace, and there Abi and Umi were sitting on a bamboo chair with a cup of coffee on the table.

"Abi, why call Rizal what's wrong?"ask Rizal.

"Rizal,maafin Abi sama umi ya" said umi as the opening.

"lho, why?"

"Your rizal is an adult, and now you have to live independently" Abi chimed.

"What does Abi mean?"rizal asked with a thumping feeling.

"Rizal, maafin Abi with Umi yes, from tomorrow you have to enter the boarding school" said Umi while holding Rizal's shoulder trying to calm down.

"No, I'm just the same Ii don't care about Rizal, when Rizal goes away from home" said Rizal, he ran with his distrust.

"RIZAL"umi tried calling.

"already umi, let's just that he needs to learn" Abi said.

That sunny morning became a sadness for Rizal. What he doesn't like is the reason for his better life. Rizal stopped near a tree on his playing field, but now his place evaporates his sadness.

"why is everyone always angry Rizal when, you just want to be me".

Rizal said with his annoyance and sadness, He considers him to be who he is when he has not become his true self.

From a distance saw the old man in shabby clothes carrying some of his merchandise, Rizal could only see the person from the tree he was sheltering. Suddenly the old man fell and everything he brought fell to the ground. I don't know what moved Rizal got up and approached the old man, and helped him.

"sir, why not?"ask Rizal.

"that's okay" replied the old man.

"nothing is right"

"i'm okay too, sir"

Rizal also helped the old man, as if nothing happened Rizal's sadness was receding.

"Thank you, thank you, help your father" said the old man.

"Yes, sir" replied Rizal.

"father is grateful that you are still allowed to meet people as good as you" said the old man as he left.

There was not the slightest sound from Rizal's mouth, those words had muted Rizal's mouth and voiced Rizal's heart.

"you know that Rizal is just a bad boy" Rizal said in his heart.

Rizal went home and said hello.

"assalamualaik".

Like hearing the beautiful news, Mumi went up and hugged her child.

"Rizal, Alhamdulillah you have come home, but we eat first" he said with haru.

Rizal also saw Abi who was sitting near the television with Syafa and Jihan. As if it had been planned right in front of his family Rizal also said things that would lead to his true self.

"Abi Umi, Rizal wants to go to the pesantren".

That sentence, those words had voiced that family. Abi got up from his seat and held his son's shoulder.

"are you sure?, if you don't want anything" asked Abi.

"iya Rizal,Abi equally umi will not be angry with you anymore" said Umi.

"no Abi umi, this decision is from Rizal's heart" Rizal said.

That day becomes the beginning of Rizal to go to the vast world and learn to find what life means while looking for Rizal's true self has been buried. The small family also embraces each other under the golden rays of twilight as a provision of Rizal's memories to start his life.
