The Light of Love Salma

Picking up Kafa

Ummi really cooks a lot with the help of the santri all the food menu has been cooked right before the adzan maghrib reverberate.

All the santri gathered in the hall according to their respective rooms, each room on average contained twenty santri and got four tampirs for each room.

Menu tempe tofu and fried eggplant mixed with pecel seasoning feels so delicious, especially in eating together with crackers as a complement.

"Emmm, eating together like this turned out to be so delicious, said Ms. Ratna," Salma as they ate and almost spent a drop of food in front of them.

"True Salma, this is what santri sometimes miss," replied Ratna with a smile.

"Especially if free like this, it feels more stable," said Tari who is still busy chewing leftovers while talking.

"Fine out the one in the mouth! when you just talked about Dance," Salma again reminded Tari who was just a sinless smile looking at Salma.

A delightful dinner passed by with an occasional smile and laughter echoing on the dorm terrace.

The morning sun began to appear illuminating the beauty of the world, the sound of mobile phone ringing disturbed the ears of Ummi who was sitting preparing to wear a hijab in front of a mirror.

"Tumben early in the morning there was already a call," said Ummi as he walked towards the nightstand while picking up the phone lying there and ringing there.

"Kafa," exclaimed Ummi with a swnyum that immediately widened after seeing who was calling.

"Assalamualaikum, my son's morning," said Ummi, his voice so crisp it sounded in the ears, making anyone who heard it smile because of it.

"Waalaikum salam, Ummi," said Kafa from across.

"Ummi was happy to get a phone call so early from you, son," said Ummi revealed what he felt.

"Kafa is also happy to be able to call Ummi, actually Kafa wants to tell him that Kafa is coming home today, so have Ghozi pick up Kafa now Ummi!" pinta Kafa's.

"Ommy?" Kafa again called Ummi because the Ummi did not say his words, Kafa only heard silence from the sebrang.

"Eh, i~iya, son, Ummi will immediately tell Ghozi to pick you up." Sahut Ummi who was stunned to hear the words of Kafa who wants to go home today.

"Alright, Kafa wait for Ghozi at home." Kafa.

"All right, son, Ghozi will be there soon." Ummi Sahut.

"Assalamualaikum," said Kafa turned off the phone connection without waiting for Ummi's answer.

"Waalaikum salam," said Ummi, he did not care what Kafa did, which is important at this time Kafa will go home and Ummi was so happy because of it.

With a quick step and wide Ummi walked out of the house to the yard looking for Ghozi to tell him about the return of Kafa.

"Excuse me, have you seen Ghozi?" ummi asked a santri who happened to pass by in the courtyard.

"Ghozi has just returned to the cottage. Is Ummi any need?" replied the Santri with full ta'dhim.

"Yes, can Ummi please call Ghozi?" Ummi asked back.

"May, Ummi, excuse me first." Pamit Sang Santri breezed away leaving Ummi who was still loyal to stand on the terrace while waiting for the santri to call Kafa.

"What Ummi, call Ghozi?" ask Ghozi who just arrived at the terrace of Ummi's house.

"Yes, Kafa just called Ummi, he said he wants to go home now and ask you to pick him up." Answer Ummi.

"Alhamdulillah, then Ghozi set out now to pick up Kafa, how does Ummi agree?" sahut Ghozi with great zeal.

"Of course you must go now, go! don't forget to be careful!" ummi said with a smile that was clearly visible on her face.

"Then Ghozi said goodbye to Ummi" Ghozi said.

"Wait!" prevent Ummi.

"What's Ummi?" ghozi asked with a puzzled expression looking at Ummi who was preventing his move.

"It's for you on your way, just remember to be careful!" Ummi gave several hundred thousand bills for Ghozi's provisions on the trip.

"Thank you, Ummi, Ghozi is leaving first." Pamit Ghozi after taking the money offered by Ummi, Ghozi received the money because the trip to the house that Kafa lived in had a considerable distance from the pesantren and Ghozi needed gasoline to get there.

With a sure and light step full of relief now felt by Ghozi, he stepped into the car and started to turn it on.

Ghozi was pleased that his long-serving friend would now return, hoping that Kafa would come to his senses and return to what he used to be.

The car was traveling at a moderate speed given that he would soon meet with Kafa.

"Assalamualaikum," said Ghozi after arriving in front of the house in Kafa, it seems that Ghozi has not set foot in the house he is currently visiting.

"Waalaikum greetings, uh there is Mas Ghozi, please enter Mas!" Sahut Mbok Sumik who is very familiar with the figure of Ghozi because before becoming a household assistant in the Kafa house, Bik Sumik was the cook of Mbok Yem's friend in the pesantren.

"Thank you Mbok, I came here to tell Ummi to pick up Mas Kafa, is there anyone?" ask Ghozi.

"Oh, Mas Kafa is in his room, since yesterday it seems like he is also getting ready Mas, wait here! let Bibik call first." Pamit Bik Sumik breezed away towards the Kafa room located on the second floor.

Ghozi is now sitting on the living room couch waiting for Kafa to come, his heart is also happy because with the arrival of Kafa Ummi and Abah who he already considers like his own parents will be happy because of it.

"Have you waited a long time?" kafa's voice that had been long unheard by Ghozi was now heard echoing in the living room.

"No, I just came, how are you?" sahut Ghozi's.

"I'm good, you take it easy, I won't die just because of a woman" Kafa said with a light smile.

"But you've left the pesantren only because of a woman, if you forget that," Ghozi said, noting the cause of Kafa's departure.

"Ha ha ha, life needs a new atmosphere to forget the old memories of Ghozi, because painful memories need a little effort to disguise it, although it can never be lost" said Kafa.

"That's it, don't discuss painful memories! there's no point in what matters now that we have to go home because Ummi's been waiting for you with a million misses in the pesantren," Ghozi who impatiently wanted to see the happiness that must have emanated in the face of the Ummi invited Kafa to come home soon.

"All right, let's go home!" kafa is ready with a suitcase in his left hand.
