As usual when they go home from school they wait for each other to come home together. And this is what the three of them did. Waiting for Dinda in front of the school gate.
"Assalamualaikum" said Dinda.
"Waalaikum salam" They answered in unison.
"Em, you guys go home first. I didn't go straight home today to go to school"
"Why Din?" Ask Aisha .
"Where are you going? Can I come with you?" Ask Syifa.
"Emmm..I wanna.."
"Gue come with ya" Cut Syifa. "Yes, yes, you can, you can dong. Dinda pliss" Syifa pleaded.
Dinda shook her head slowly "Sorry can't" she replied slowly.
Syifa was silent for a moment. Then he watched Dinda from the bottom up. "OK ga papa" he said briefly.
Dinda smiled "Yes if that's what I am first. Assalamualaikum"
"Waalaikum salam" they answered simultaneously.
Dinda started to leave them.
"Aisha, Lina we follow Dinda yuk!" Bring Syifa.
Aisyah shook her head "It can't be the same with Dinda"
"Udah ga papa I'm curious about where Dinda is going, ga kayak usually he's not straight home pesantren. How's Lin?"
"Emm, I really want to follow Dinda but I also wonder where she is going" replied Lina.
"Well, let's follow Dinda. Yuk" said Syifa by pulling Lina's wrist.
"Aisha, we go first" said Lina. Aisyah nodded. "Assalamualaikum" said Lina and Syifa together.
"Waalaikum salam" answered Aisha.
They immediately followed Dinda, from behind. Syifa turned back to Aisha.
"Da-da ayesha" Syifa said with a wave of her hand. He made me smile and do the same. Until they disappeared from Aisha's sight.
They continued to slowly follow Dinda. They occasionally hid behind tree trunks and shrubs, because Dinda often turned her head back. I feel someone is following him. Until Dinda went to the flower shop. He bought red roses and pink roses.
"Who did you buy it for?" Ask Syifa who is hiding behind a tree not far from the flower shop.
"Where do I know" replied Lina.
Before long, Dinda again walked towards a village. Sometimes he greeted and smiled at people who were on the move or just relaxing in front of his house.
Syifa clucked. "Ih actually the Dinda go where anyway, from earlier on the road continues ga until until until. I'm tired of it"
"Yes have followed, Lo herself who wants to follow Dinda." Answer Lina. "Fa, hide" said Lina who immediately pulled Syifa to hide behind a large tree on the side of the road. He looked at Dinda who was looking back. After Dinda walked back, they came out of hiding and started to follow Dinda again.
"Kok I even feel like a person who wants to menggejahatin Dinda so yes" muttered Syifa who continued to walk slowly with eyes that still observe dinda.
And before long, Dinda entered a narrow alley. Where in the alley was only found shady tree trees that grew on the side of the road. Syifa rubbed her arms, because suddenly she felt goosebumps.
"Duh, Dinda is going where the hell" she whispered in a whispering voice.
After 50 meters they walked down the alley to follow Dinda, Syifa eyes perfectly rounded. She was walking into a cemetery.
"Loh, Dinda's here. Wanna do. Lin we go home, I'm afraid" he whined to Lina.
"Where the hell, we've been far away to follow Dinda here, cook want to go home. We don't know the way home anyway. I don't know what village this is in. You want to get lost" replied Lina.
Syifa. "Yes, yes, too. Yes it is"
They continued their steps until they entered the cemetery. They immediately found a place to peek.
Dinda stopped at one of the tombs, then she crouched down and rubbed the tombstone in front of her.
"Assalamualaikum" said Dinda, with tears that he could not bear. Dinda immediately offered a do'a and took out a small book with the surah Yasin from her bag, and read it to completion. After everything was done, Dinda put the book in her bag, and she gently rubbed the tombstone back, then looked at the name written on it.
"Momuuu, "" She sighed in a trembling voice. And, her tears flowed back.
"Mother how are you doing there? You're good, aren't you?" Ask Dinda. Although he knew that no one would answer his question at this time.
"Moeuu..." Dinda wiped her tears. "Dinda misses mom. Are you the same mom as Dinda?"
"Mom, Dinda, when can I meet my mom and dad. Dinda wants to see your face, Dinda wants Buu" he said again. His tongue suddenly felt faint. "Mother and Dad why didn't Dateng invent Dinda. Even if it's only in a dream, why never. Did Dinda have to die first to see you"
Lina and Syifa who are still faithful to peek at Dinda, also feel what her best friend feels.
Dinda hugged the tombstone in tears. "Mother, mother, I know that Dinda is happy and grateful to be able to be cared for by Abi. But Dinda would be luckier if the same mother who ngawat Dinda, ngebesarin dinda. Dinda wants to be born to Dinda's biological parents, like other children Buu" Dinda further strengthen her embrace.
"Aaa, my Dinda is so sad" Syifa said by wiping one drop of her tears that accidentally came down.
"Yes kasian dinda" answered Lina also staring at her friend softly from behind the tree where she was to peek.
"Dinda wants to hug mom, Dinda wants to be kissed by mom, Dinda hopes mom sniffed Dinda kayak's head by other mom's. But when Mom, when can I do it"
"Your mother's answer, when? Mother, don't be diem... Dinda wanted"
His eyes were currently hot, his breathing was starting to become irregular. Dinda tried to calm herself for a moment, then her eyes closed while enjoying the breeze that gently hit her face.
Deg
His eyes opened as he felt like someone was gently stroking his head. He took off a hug from the tombstone, then circulated the gaze in all directions. But unfortunately Dinda did not find anyone there. Then he looked back at the tomb in front of him. His eyes suddenly sparkled and his lips formed a smile. Dinda wiped her tears.
"Mother, what mother did Abis smear Dinda's head? Isn't it Mom? Wasn't she the one who scratched Dinda's head?" Ask Dinda but get no answer. Dinda cleaned the dry leaves that were on top of her mother's grave.
Dinda regained her breathing, as her stuffy nose made her feel hard to breathe. Dinda turned her body. Then back gently stroked the tomb in front of him.
"Yahh" Lirihnya. I don't know why her tears are flowing again. With great difficulty he calmed himself down, but it was very difficult for him when dealing with them. Father and mother.
"Dad is also why Dinda. Even before Dinda was born into the world, why did you leave. Kan Dinda pas born also want to be in the same adzanin father, can be carried with the father" he said with a trembling voice.
"What did my aunt say when she was sick, what kind of sick dad? If Dinda at that time was born and already big, surely Dinda would want to take care of father until healed. Dinda wants to. Dinda is willing to go to school, Dinda willing to have to work day and night to buy medicine for dad. Dinda will admit it well, but as long as I can come back here again, near Dinda, next to Dinda."
Dinda hugged her father's tombstone.
"Daddy there again what? Daddy's healthy there? Dad's there happy, right? What else did mom do? Dad, doain Dinda yes let Dinda be Sholehah's son. Dinda here will also always mengeedain father mother so you can be happy there. Dad, promise yes the same Dinda we will always take care even in a different world" whispered Dinda on the tombstone she now hugged.
"Dad please take care of mom. Please always pray well, so that we can all gather in the heaven of God. Dinda loves me" said Dinda and kissed the tombstone. And let go of his embrace. He pulled out the red roses he had bought, then backed up with the help of his father's headstone.
Then he turned his back, took out a pink rose, and leaned on his mother's tombstone. Dinda wiped her tears again, and began to catch her breath. He kissed his mother's tombstone. Then Dinda stood up.
"Mother's father, Dinda went home first huh. Take good care of yourself there. Dinda loves you guys" he said and smiled. "Assalamualaikum" Continue.
Before he stepped away, Dinda waved her hand. After she felt enough to stir up all the longing that was stirring in her, Dinda walked slowly and began to move away from the actual house of her parents.
•••••
"Huuuaaa, Aishaaahh help us. Aisyah Aisyah" Shouts from outside the room made Aisyah stop her activities. Aisha closed the book she had just read. Then he turned to the front, where three girls were running in a row towards him.
Syifa and Lina were sitting next to him, while Dinda was sitting on her own bed. They looked tired, with breath and sweat pouring down their faces.
"As-greetings nausea-iikum" said them with breath that is still ngosan.
"Waalaikum salam" answered Aisha. "You're why you ran away that way"
"Water water.." Lirih Syifa is like a man thirsty because of drought.
Dinda and Lina took out a bottle and drank it. Syifa took a bottle of lina while Lina was drinking it. It made Lina choke, and her veil got wet from the spilled drinking water. Syifa quickly drank it and Lina hit Syifa's arm.
"Ih fa, how the hell is my drink" whineknya.
"Ah, Alhamdulillah. Thank you Lin" Syifa said without sin.
"Thank you, I'm still thirsty"
"Nih Lin" said Dinda by thrusting her drinking bottle. Makes Lina smile.
"Thank you Din" said Lina and immediately gulped until it was almost finished.
"Why are you running away?" Ask Aisha again.
Dinda wiped the sweat that was on her forehead. "We're being chased by a shah dog"
Aisyah glares. "Pursued dog? How can?" Ask Aisyah.
"This is all because of Syifa" said Lina.
"Kok me, it's delicious Lo" replied Syifa did not accept.
"Yes yes Lo is wrong, try it is not Lo pelototin dog like that. He's not gonna chase us" Ketus Lina.
"You guys can be chased by dogs anyway" asked Dinda. Yes, because they were Dinda also had to follow the chase.
Dinda looked at the streets with a sad look. His mind was still on his parents. Before long he heard the cry of someone, whose voice was very familiar. Dinda looked back, seeing Lina and Syifa running around and screaming hysterically. Making Dinda's forehead wrinkle, before long the sound of dog barking.
Gugg
That voice sounded so loud. The big black dog was chasing them from behind. Making Dinda also glare in shock. Because she was also scared, Dinda ran along. Join them.
"SEPY, SEPY PLEASE ME. I WAS CHASED BY A DOG. HUAAA" Shouted Lina.
"MAMA, PAPA PLEASE!! HUAA, ANJYING YOU ARE SINNING SO BADLY THAT I KAYAK GUEJAR." His shouting. "GUE IF PURSUED BY KAK REYHAN WOULD WANT TO, BUT DO NOT LO" HE ADDED AGAIN.
"GOD, PLEASE..!!" Shouted Dinda.
"So the story is that we will walk again, well incidentally through the house that has a dog. Well at that time, Syifa even glared at the dog, so yes the dog barked. Not that the Syifa is gone, uh even more glared at the dog. Syifa also said gini to her dog Did you see me? He said It was. Well, it just so happened that the gate was open a little, so the dog was chasing us" explained Lina with a sharp glance towards Syifa. While the one glimpsed only gave his innocent grin.
"Oo, how come you guys go through there? What's to do?" Ask Dinda.
"So they are again..." Lina silenced Aisyah's mouth. Tell him not to be too honest.
"What's go?" Ask the curious Dinda.
"Em, the max of Ayesha is. ngi,, ngiii, ngiii.em.ngii" said the confused Lina herself looking for the right reason.
Syifa patted both of her hands hard. "Nwidut. We crav in Lin" Syifa replied by nudging Lina's arm.
"E-e yes" Lina smiled clumsily.
"Nwidam? Why what?"
"Young mango cravings" replied Syifa ngasal making Lina glare.
Dinda raised both eyebrows. "Ngidam young mango? How to get pregnant"
"Emm, that cravings is Syifa. I'm not cravings. I really crave what" Lina said, shaking her head.
"So, so that's it.oh yes so I want to eat asem asem pedes that way, so I buy young mangoes for me to be rujak" said Syifa.
"Emm" Dinda mangosteen. "Where are the young mangoes?"
"Young mango?" Syifa looks confused. "Young mango yes, mango..." Then soon Syifa patted the jidat hard. "Oi yeah I forgot the young mango fell. You see, it was chased by dogs, so afraid I accidentally fell down the mango" Elak Syifa.
"That's it" Dinda said with a strange look at Syifa.
"Yes Din, that's the story" Syifa replied by showing a row of white teeth.
•••••
As usual, every night they always do the same task together.
"Ki Hadjar Dewantara was born on what date?" Ask Syifa.
"2 May 1889" answered Aisha.
"Thank You" said Syifa. Then he wrote back to his book.
"Done" he said again and closed the book.
Syifa. "If Reyhan's brother's birth what date is it"
"Yes, why napa. I want it when Reyhan's brother birthday, I can give a surprise to him" he replied.
"Oh yeah Shah, is your English assignment?" Ask Syifa.
"Udah"
"Lo's ready when he's told to go forward"
"In Shaa Allah is ready"
"Duh, how am I. I don't speak English. Dizziness me" she complained.
"What is Lo's English assignment?" Ask Lina. Kepos.
"Told to do yes like a story about the mind, kept told to go forward. Without bringing reading. I don't understand English. I just read English ga becus...Uuuuhh confused me" said Syifa by holding his head with both hands.
"There is still one day for you to learn" said Aisyah.
"Emm, help me out. You speak pinter English"
"Aisyah ma no English doang pinter, all the subjects she can. Pinter" Lina said.
"Yes yes, I am surprised by Aisha" replied Syifa.
"You have spoken to me" said Aisyah, pursing her lips.
•••••
Aisha, Syifa, Dinda and Lina.The four of them walked together to enter the school gate.
"Hi Fa" Sapa Adit's.
"Assalamualaikum" said Syifa.
"Waalaikum salam" answered Adit.
"Btw I haven't seen Lo in a long time"
"Old old age? The feeling is only a few days" Syifa said.
"Yes it's only been a few days, but for me it's a long time" he replied. "Oh yeah fa, how do you like the necklace?"
Syifa nodded steadily. "Yes, it's really nice. Thanks to dit"
"Lo's necklace?"
"Yes, I don't have a necklace."
"It's good that it is." Adit smiled with satisfaction. "Oh yes fa, you want me to chat later?"
"Chat?"
"Yes, we never talked together"
"Emm, okay, okay"
Adit smiled cheerfully. "Lo I'll wait in Bi Yuni's cafeteria"
"okay"
"I've been with you first, Fa, Assalamualaikum"
"Waalaikum salam" They answered in unison.
Then Adit immediately left.
"Aah, be taught to eat both.." Lina Temptation.
"Gue is actually ogah, yes but how is he already good with me, wear a necklace all. So if it doesn't feel good either." Syifa.
"Ep..Lin, Shah, fa I went to class first huh" Pamit Dinda. The three of them nodded. "Assynogaic"
"Waalaikum salam" answered the three of them simultaneously.
"Gue also went to class. First yes fa, Shah. Assalamualaikum" Lina said.
"Greetings waalaikum"
Lina immediately went to her class, leaving behind Syifa and Aisyah.
"To class yuk fa" Take Aisyah.
"Tomorrow" replied Syifa with a nod. Then they walked to class.
•••••
Brawny
Line kicked the table, making the sound of the clanking of plates and spoons sound loud in the bag. The bustling atmosphere turned silent, at this moment, all eyes were fixed on their table. It was on Lina.
"Linaa" Aisyah said in a whispering voice. With eyes glaring at Lina, telling her to keep her attitude in a public place.
"I'm sorry" Lina said."I forgot I had to see you today.." Sentence cut.
"Who?" Ask Syifa.
"I have to see someone."
Syifa. Then he patted his eel not long."Oh yes I also forgot, I promised to eat with Adit diwarung Bu Yuni" he said.
Simultaneously, they stood up from his seat. And walk in the opposite direction.
"Aduuhhhh" They said simultaneously. Because they accidentally collided.
"Where the hell is Lo" they said simultaneously.
"Where the hell are the fa" asked Lina.
"You go there" Syifa replied, pointing east.
"Where the hell is Lin?" This time Syifa asked.
"You go there" Lina replied, pointing west.
"Yes, that's it"
"Yes already"
Lina shifted her body a few centi of the right collar, then passed Syifa just like that. While Syifa he immediately ran towards the canteen Bi Yuni.
"Mbak Windi mbak Windi" cried Lina by approaching Windi's drum. "The food I ordered yesterday is ready, right?"
"Yes, wait a minute I take it" said Mr. Windi. After a few seconds, Windi gave the food that Lina ordered yesterday.
"The same crackers mbak" said Lina.
"This" replied Mbak Windi by thrusting a pack of crackers.
"This is mbak" Lina said by handing out a few pieces of money.
"Thank you to Windi" he added
Not to mention that Windi opened her voice to speak, Lina had already galloped towards the rooftop. Lina quickly climbed each staircase, to head for the rooftop.
"Lo is 12 minutes late" said Iqbal, but not digubris by Lina who still set her breath that stung.
"Push up 36 times" Iqbal added. Lina glares.
"What's? 36 Times" he shouted. Iqbal nodded without sin. "It can't be dong. That's mostly" Lina said.
"Bodo very, I laper it because waiting for the food that Lo bring. Cepet push up" continued Iqbal by pointing down.
"I don't want to" said Lina. "Lack the penalty, cook 36 times anyway"
"Okay I'm lacking, so 35"
"Heeehh, stingy benget anyway so people" Angered Lina money already upset. "I want my punishment to be in line with my late time. If I'm 12 minutes late, push-ups should be 12 times"
"Can't" Ketus Iqbal by crossing his hands in front of his chest.
"If so, I also do not want to give this food to Lo" said Lina.
Iqbal. His stomach had been struggling to feed. And this time he had to give up, but not next time. "Okay, I give it up. Where did he eat it"
"It's really only 12 times"
"Hm"
Lina smiled with satisfaction, then gave her food plus crackers to Iqbal. Lina immediately put her face down, and took the position of a push-up person. As for Iqbal, he was sitting in a wooden chair that was in the rootop. Open the meal, then gobble it up casually. Accompanied by crackers that add pleasure in the taste of the food. With a fresh breeze today. Ah, what a blessing you deny.
Different again with lina, who herself is dominated by anger. If not for the sake of his plan, he would not want to do all this, let alone be punished arbitrarily by the man he hated at this time. Lina glanced at the cynical Iqbal, who was delicately eating the food he was carrying.
"Basic jerk" he murmured.
After finishing the push-ups, Lina aligned her legs and started to regulate her breathing. After which, he stood up and walked towards Iqbal.
"Where? Yummy?" Ask Lina.
Iqbal nodded.
"Good" Hept.
"Kwenwapwa bwaagwus" asked iqbal with food still in his mouth.
"When you eat, don't talk" Tegur Lina.
Iqbal swallowed his food, switching places to his stomach. "Lo don't bring drinks?"
Lina shakes.
"Where the hell is Lo, you should bring me a drink"
"Lah Lo just said bring crackers, don't ask me to make drinks too" Elak Lina.
"If there is food there must be drink" Omel Iqbal.
"Tau ah, my fault is the same Lo. As soon as I leave here" Lina said and walked away.
"Do you want to pay for the food?" Tanya Iqbal made Lina turn her body around.
"Yes will. That's my money, so you have to pay"
"Nih" said Iqbal by thrusting red money at Lina. Lina walked a few steps towards Iqbal. Then take it, and reach into her skirt pocket.
"Why what?" Ask Iqbal.
"You take change, this is mostly" he said.
"That's okay, make it all up"
Lina's eyes sparkled. "Tell?" Ask Lina to make sure. Iqbal nodded. "Well that's good times with me, don't make me high blood Mulu"
"I want to be classy first. Assalamualaikum" More.
"Waalaikum salam" answered Iqbal. "Don't forget tomorrow to bring me this food too"
Lina nodded, then immediately walked out the rooftop, occasionally turning towards Iqbal with a satisfied smile. Perhaps, in the next few days he will receive punishment if it is late. But that's not why, because Lina made sure Iqbal would also get the right thing. Or maybe, even worse.
All right, you know what Lina brought for Iqbal? Foods that some of you may not like.
Jengkol.
And wait for what happens next.
