"I didn't see any Salma, I just saw a picture of Kafa as a kid and you know that picture is really funny, he's wearing a fucking veil, God, I don't know what really happened until Mas Kafa wore a veil like a girl," said Tari.
Fortunately, Tari recalled a photo that she believed belonged to Mas Kafa, she was sitting on Ummi's lap with a very anxious Kafa wearing a veil while smiling sweetly at the camera.
"Kafa must have looked so funny at the time" Salm said without any suspicion or curiosity about the truth he seemed to care less.
"Of course she's very cute and adorable, ahh if only I had been there at that time I could have made sure that I would have pinched her cheeks," cried Dari with a fiery spirit.
"And unfortunately you were still not born at that time" Salma said with a swnyum clearly visible on her face.
"And you are right about that," replied Tari while giggling considering Salma's words were indeed true.
Salma who feels full is now back to leave the real world full of bitterness to dreamland that might be beautiful today.
"Geez, he's a slumber again, I'd better get some sleep." Tari said when she saw Salma was deep in the dream world, Tari walked to a mattress that was not far from where Salma slept, a mattress that was deliberately prepared for people waiting for paaien.
The day went on and now the night began to appear dark, but the darkness was a little more beautiful with the glitter of lights that began to light one by one.
Kafa who has since been feeling saturated because he sat quietly without any activity in front of the room of Salma's room now choose to take a walk to enjoy the breeze that blows with the light of the lights that look like a bright illuminating every street, and the glittering lights that lit up in the houses were clearly visible from the balcony, it happened that Salma's room was on the second floor and Kafa could see the view of the house around the hospital, which was the second floor, Kafa is on the front balcony of the room at the very end.
"How can I fight Intan, and can I make the girl realize that she and I are not a match?" kafa murmured while remembering the threat posed by Intan.
"Ummi" Kafa recalled that he had to ask Ummi for permission to return to the city.
Kafa who just remembered his intention was to reach into his pocket and then took the phone that had been there since this morning.
Tut .. tut .. tut ....
The voice of the phone connection was heard, the tone of his voice was in rhythm with Kafa's heartbeat which was starting to sound so loud, the voice was, although Kafa is worried if Ummi does not give him permission but he still has to try because the threat given Intan is not nonsense, Intan will come along with his troops and can be sure there will be a big commotion that will occur in the boarding school if what Intan said is true.
"Assalamualaikum, Ummi," said Kafa shortly after the cellphone connection tone was lifted by Ummi.
"Waalaikum salam, what is Kafa? is everything okay?" sahut Ummi who sounded so worried after getting a phone call from Kafa.
"There's nothing, Ummi," Kafa replied honestly.
"Look at Ummi, Kafa wants to ask something from Ummi, is it okay?" kafa hesitated to say what he felt.
"What do you want from Ummi, Kafa?" instead of menhawab but Ummi asked Kafa again.
"Kafa wants Ummi's permission to return to the city" Kafa replied.
"What?? back in town? did Ummi not hear wrong?" sahut Ummi who sounded so surprised after Kafa expressed his intentions.
"No Ummi, Kafa is serious, Kafa will return to the city in ten days" Kafa replied.
"How many days were you there?" ask Ummi at the core.
"Kafa still does not know how many days will be there Ummi, but clearly the departure of Kafa at this time will not be as long as it used to be," replied Kafa honestly, he does not know how long will be in the city because of the problems he will solve Kafa does not know for sure when it will be finished.
"Give Ummi time to think, tomorrow Ummi will tell you the decision Ummi you can go or not," Ummi's answer really makes Kaf restless and anxious, what if the Ummi does not give him permission, what if the Ummi does not give him permission, whether Kafa can face or change Intan's plan.
"Ummi, there's something that Kafa has to finish there, so Kafa hopes Ummi will give permission so that Kafa can go," Kafa who still could not say the reason for leaving now started pleading without telling her the truth.
"Tomorrow Ummi will decide, at this time you better focus on keeping Salma so that he recovers quickly," replied Ummi.
"Alright, Kafa is waiting for permission from Ummo tomorrow and Kafa is very hopeful that if Ummi will give permission for Kafa to leave," resigned already, Kafa can no longer force Ummi to agree directly, Kafa is no longer able to force Ummi to agree, for him at this time the most important thing is that Kafa must find a way to fight Intan.
"Good, Ummi tipped Salma, take good care of her, like you took care of Ummi." Ummi's message before he finally closes his phone.
"Of course Ummi, Kafa will take good care of Salma" replied Kafa.
"Good, be careful there! Ummi shut the phone first." Ummi told me again then he completely closed his phone connection.
"Hopefully Ummi gave me permission without asking much about the problem that I had to solve," a thread of hope came out from Kafa's lips signifying how hopeful he was to get permission from the Ummi.
"Ghozi is right, leaving isn't the best solution, I should have stayed in the pesantren and healed this wound by drawing closer to the creator of the dati on having to run away and look for another outlet that ultimately harms myself." Kafa muttered again, I don't know how many times he said words of regret that only he could say without being able to fix it, what has happened will not be removed because time will never be able to walk backwards, as the clock will continue to walk to the right without being able to turn around to the left.
What has happened will be a lesson in the future, if the incident is bad but if what happens is good then it is not a problem that he will get but a pleasure of life that will surely come.
