Kumandang Ashar adhan was heard, some people who had been seen in the room rushed to the mosque located in the PKM.
"Fa want to pray now what's home?" ask Rini
"I pray at home" I replied "No one wants to talk again, right? "
"Ga anyway... Can the division of the committee is still tomorrow right tight" Sahut kak Fatiya
"Rin you want to go home now what will it be? " change me who asked
"Now, pray here"
"Yes, I didn't papa first? " want to nerusin some room was not finished yet" my saying
As I stood up, I raised my hand above the chest to all who were still in the room.
"Assynogaic"
"Be careful" some shouted at me
"Eh.. How about buri buri? Not waiting yet? Brother Hana asked
I stopped my steps and turned to look into the room to Hana's face with a smile and shook my head
" Nunggu expelled his point" loose laughter sounded almost voiced by everyone in the room
"Well... Kirain is waiting for what, sister?" murmur me
"That ah.. Yuk all "once again I say goodbye
Alone swing my footsteps towards the new hostel. The hot sun still feels hot on the head even though it is wrapped in a veil over it
Slowly but surely my steps slowly approached the house that looked tiny painted in cream color and a list of dark brown on the window and door frames.
Seemed deserted from the outside, there were 2 motorcycles parked outside. The yard is not spacious there is a parking space that fits about 3-4 motorcycles, on the left side of the house there are several flower pots as decorations so that this small house looks beautiful.
"Assalamualaikum "I opened the door without knocking on the door
"Wa'alaikum salam" came a greeting from the living room
There were two women sitting there and in front of them was a laptop and several thick books were open. It seems they are working in a group.
"This is the new kid? " ask the young blue hooded madam, who's in room 4? " continue
"Yes mbak" I replied with a blush "sorry you haven't had time to get acquainted, just now after putting the goods continue to lecture again"
"Yes ga papa, know me Lestari, just call me mbak Tari he said while extending a hand to invite me to shake hands
" If it's Nilam, he's my old friend but he's not here"
Oh ... Nodding my head I reached out to Nilam to get acquainted.
"For mbak group work ? " let me take off the awkwardness
"Yes, tomorrow at the pumpkin"
"My mother went in first yes have not prayed the problem"
"oh yes please"
Bowing my body as a sign of respect I passed from the living room to my room
Ceklek.ceklek.. (key sound played).
"Bismillahi walajna wa bismillahi khorojna wa 'ala Robbina tawakkalna" I prayed in my heart
I put my back bag on the chair and immediately I took off my shoes and hood. I opened the bag containing clothes that I had not had time to tidy up to the closet and rushed to the bathroom to clean the body and take the water.
20 Minutes later I went out and fulfilled my duty as a Muslim.
I haven't taken off the face I'm wearing yet, the sound of the door being knocked
Tok tok tok tok
Immediately I opened the door to my room, and I saw Yenny smiling
"Hi Fa, tonight after Isya we gather for a while yes for acquaintances, not all know the same residents here?"
"Yes in the Lord"
"Oya Fa, if you want to cook alone or just! make noodles can use the kitchen behind ya" explained Yenny
"Yes, if you want to continue your activities, do not forget that we will gather for a while later tonight"
"Ya Yen thanks for the info" I replied while nodding
I closed the door again and I came off, I folded and I put it on the back of the chair. I got a bottle and a glass for me to pour water.
Glek.. I drink water because from the day I came home my throat felt dry because it had not been wet.
I sat on the side of the bed holding the glass. "There is still time before Maghrib comes" I said in my heart. I put a glass on the study table in the corner of the room.
Starting I unload my stuff that I had not been able to tidy up, immediately I opened the cardboard containing the book and I arranged the book on the table. Some simple face cleaning tools on the shelf and I put them on the table also next to the book.
A few strands of clothes, a towel and a veil I trim in a small wooden cabinet next to the table.
"It's neat" I muttered as I looked at all the objects in this room with satisfaction.
I immediately washed my hands in the bathroom that was one in the room.
Without feeling the reddish light that penetrates the window of the room looks a sign of the day before evening. Immediately I closed the windows and curtains.
I do not know at this boarding house there is a program of joint activities such as prayer of worshipers or tadarus together after the Maghrib prayer or not, because this is my first day here.
I prepared to take ablution water for the Maghrib prayer. My plan after the prayer I'll go out for dinner. Although I don't understand the area yet, I can at least ask where the nearest rice stall is. For me, it does not matter what is important to eat halal and can fill the stomach.
Simultaneously I came out of the bathroom sayup sayup heard the sound of adhan maghrib some distance away his voice. Means the location of the mosque or musholla here far from the boarding house.
Quite a juz of the Quran I read this time.
I changed clothes and I put on the veil I was wearing to get ready to go out for food.
I came out of the room and happened to cross paths with Yenny whose room was across from me.
"Where are you going to be tidy? We will gather it later hanis isya, Fa" said Yenny
"It wants to eat first the stomach already needs intakeih, you have eaten? " many
"Oh coincidence I also want to go out to eat ayuk we are together"
"Alhamdulillah the stall is far away ga Yen? "
"Well, the fork before entering the alley here is a food stall that we usually buy there"
"Anyone likes to cook? What's all the junk?"
"Ga exists, they also choose the practical, stay lep... No need to bother "Yenny laughs while covering her mouth.
"True, if I'm not good at cooking, Yen"
Without feeling we have arrived at the rice stall mentioned by Yenny. My eyes went around looking at the contents of the storefront thinking what kind of menu intrigued my taste tonight.
"What are you the same Fa? " ask Yenny
"Jue fish deh plus sambel and pepes mushrooms"
The seller was nimble to wrap my order and Yenny. Soon we paid and went back to the hostel to enjoy dinner.
"Would you eat in my room? " tagku
"Can"
I opened the door and we both sat down on the floor.
"Where are you real?"
"Forward, if you? "
"I'm Boyolali"
While enjoying dinner, Yenny and I talked.
"Here the same age we have another Zakiyah, she majors with me, you know her? " ask Yenny
"Know but not yet familiar" I replied
"Alhamdulillah is over, thank you Fa I went back to the room first"
"OK"
Yenny moved while carrying her food wrapper trash out
After Yenny left the room I rushed to the bathroom to wash my hands and get some water.
After the ritual prayer I went out and waited for the others we sat in the living room, because the guest chair was not enough some of us were sitting on the floor without a mat or carpet.
"Have I gathered all?" ask mbak Lestari "if we have just directly yes" he continued
"Previously introduce this our sister just joined in this hostel the name of Ifa, semester 3"
"Nah Fa, next to this mbak his name is Lulu, next to him is Riwayati, who is sweet in yellow clothes is Saleha he is from NTT. "
"Lulu same Saleha 5th semester me and Riwayati 7th semester"
"If Zakiyah is with Yenny you already know her, right? No need to know again, right? " long width mbak Lestari introduced the inhabitants of my new boarding house one by one.
"Yes mbak actually if my face is not foreign will like to see on campus just do not know his name. If the other is in Allah I know mbak"
"Here the rules are not too strict really, only if you can not bring in male guests let alone to nginep here, even though it's our family"
"The second if you can try if you go out the night boarding house to tell other friends and there is a maximum time limit of ten o'clock in the evening"
Yes although here there are no written rules, we take care of each other we consider all brothers, because we are all far from our families, support each other and take care of each other do not forget that" continue to dance
We all answered "Yes"
Just now I know Mbak Lestari is confirmed as the chairman at this boarding house, incidentally mbak Tari also still has a sibling relationship with the owner of the boarding house.
"All the existing facilities of this house we keep together and can be used or used by all of us without exception, including table chairs and kitchen utensils that exist "
"So welcome to join Ifa hopefully feel at home in this hostel"
"Thank you mbak" I said, "can you ask me? "
"Please"
"If anyone violates, is there any sanction?
" How do you want it?" smiling, Lestari asked back to me
"that's right I'm still new mbak, who walked all this time here how?"
"There are Fa-sanctions, but we know just as well, I mean if anyone is in violation it is reminded without anyone being offended."
"I guess enough yeah, it's nine o'clock please all rest"
We disperse ourselves one by one into each other's rooms.
Without waiting for a long time my eyes were closed and washed away with a beautiful dream until morning.
To be continue....
