The Forgotten Pearl

Culture City

they walked together on the right side there was ning Alma and Beautiful and on the left there was Lisa, Sulis and Ulfa.

they walked down the road down because they would pass through a village to get to their destination, before they passed their village over the bridge, when passing the bridge they also see a beautiful view of the river because it is still rural and natural the color of the river is also still clear that is blue to light and also looks a lot of fish because of the radiance of the sun.

there are also many villagers who partly work side jobs such as fishing, although the results are not so much but enough to eat his family.

in the village, the cost of living is not too expensive as in the city, in the village they eat potluck and sometimes they barter with what they have.

before long they finally reached the mountains there is a place that is usually made by Beautiful and Ning Alma for them to fill free time when the cottage holiday or on Sundays.

there were also many villagers working there, sometimes they and the citizens also exchanged greetings because the people there knew Abah Kholil so most of them pay respect to ning Alma because they know that ning Alma is Abah Kholil's daughter.

there they chat now Lisa, Sulis and Ulfa can be familiar and they have also asked ma'af to Beautiful about those who have hurt her.

they talked about their experience sometimes they also joked. when the sun began above them, finally came down from the mountains even though there cold did not cover the possibility to feel the heat, but the heat, they came down to perform dhuhur prayers in the village mosque under the mountains.

before long they saw the mosque and they immediately decided to pray, ning Alma who was appointed by Beautiful, Lisa, Sulis and Ulfa to be the imam, because they pray after the jama'ah dhuhur prayer has been completed.

after they finished their prayers they continued their journey to return to the pesantren, before they returned to the pesantren they wanted to go to the market near, the village they passed by, he said, once there they buy a lot of goods from food to accessories such as coca bracelets ( bracelets made of wood are the best choice) although the market is not so big but what items are needed for sure it's right there.

after they finished they finally went home, when they finally separated Beautiful and Ning Alma went home to Abah Kholil while Lisa, Sulis, and Ulfa they returned to the cottage.

"where are they" muttered a middle-aged woman who was none other than Umi Fatimah

there was a laughing sound from the two people at the back door, umi Fatimah who heard that opened the door and saw two children with charming faces that made it rather difficult to distinguish between the two they were Beautiful and Ning Alma.

"Umi" said the two of them rather nervously for fear of being angered because they left without saying goodbye.

umi Fatimah who initially wanted to be angry he sighed, because he realized that it was still not good for Shawwal to be angry and he finally smiled.

Ning Alma and Beautiful who saw that sighed fearfully in anger, although the anger of Umi Fatimah with a soft tone but did not reduce her assertiveness which made many princess students who were afraid of umi Fatimah.

"My mother left with Beautiful without saying goodbye" said Ning Alma with regret, and instead Beautiful also said that.

Umi Fatimah who heard that just smiled she knew what they were saying through their slightly red faces and her eyes were already a bit teary.

after that finally umi Fatimah forgave them and they entered, there they were greeted by Abah Kholil and Pak Andi who were at the dinner table.

"let's sit here and eat together" Abah Kholil said, waving to Ning Alma and Beautiful.

Ning Alma and Beautiful who saw it immediately approached them and immediately took a seat Beautiful sat next to her father.while ning Alma next to her Abah Kholil. soon Umi Fatimah came with syrup.

"let's eat, then drink this fresh" said Umi Fatimah and soon they took rice and food.

"yes we will go home, we say yes to Abah Kholil and his family" said Mr. Andi, while Abah Kholil was moving from the pendopo into the house to brew coffee.

soon Abah Kholil returned along with Umi Fatimah and ning Alma.

at the same time Mr. Andi spoke
