We are Santri Not Artists

Episode 23's. Despondent.

Band members were seen getting away from the moment the Band leader clasped his hands staring back at the members of the Syubband while smiling cunningly until finally continuing his steps towards their motorcycle parking lot. Intentionally the band members drove past Kyai, security guards and members of the Syubband.

"Basar gk have manners." Said the upset Word.

"It's quiet, how the wounded are no longer sick son."Kyai.

"Yes Kyai gk papa has been treated with friends."Arborea .

"Alhamdulillah. "Kyai smiled at Aban.

While Akmal and Ali are pushing each other to argue who will tell the damage to their tambourines. Kyai who had seen Akmal and Ali debate each other immediately reprimanded them.

"Ali, Akmal, what's the matter why you are making a fuss?" asked Kyai looking at Ali and Akmal.

Finally Akmal dared to go forward and tried to explain to Kyai in a slow tone.

"I'm sorry Kyai all the tambourines were destroyed by the band members."Akmals.

"So, we can't practice right now" said one of the members.

Kyai stepped towards the ruined tambourines as well as the scattered shalawat books. Kyai tried to patiently stroke his chest. The members of Syubband were saddened to see the state of their training ground.

"Yes already, we have to not practice first now. Insha Allah I will buy you a new tambourine tomorrow you should neaten all of this, after that join the prayer Maghrib berjama'ah I want to go to meet ustadz Abdullah first." Kyai said to the members of Syubband.

"Both Kyai." replied the members of Syubband compact.

Kyai went to say hello to the members of Syubband to Kyai's hand and answered Kyai's greeting .Kyai stepped towards the pesantren with the security guard.

Akmal felt annoyed he kicked something that he did not know it was a big stone in front of him.Akmal kicked the stone and immediately he fell silent in pain.

"Ouch... Nih kok stone can be here anyway make more upset aja." said Akmal his face was very upset holding his feet that hurt.

"Udah mas just patient, mendingan we clean all this."Azchem.

"True Azmi said, 'Let's finish quickly."Ahkams.

"Yes, it's okay."Akmals.

They quickly worked together to clean up the stones that made the tambourine break. They put the tambourine and the shalawat book neatly even though the tambourine has been destroyed all.

After their work, the dark sky shows almost the time of Maghrib. Their tired and lethargic faces were compactly seen sitting together looking at the ruined tambourines.

"This is our fate, not to mention that this place is already this cool." said one member with a lethargic face.

"Let's be right, I've been able to maneh continue iki training."Udin.

"Hush.. Mas Udin gk it's like we have to encourage proof'in to them that we are great.Enterprise everything!."Azmi tries to encourage her friends.

Akmal turned to Azmi and gave his smile.

"Yes, Azmi really said we should be able to teach lessons to the band's children, yes."Akmals.

"But, the band's kids are more slang, in this day and age many people prefer band music than our music."Ali's.

"Yes too, today's children are tired of sholawat."Ahkams.

They are confused and want to give up. Their faces look dull daydreaming and compact looking at the training ground.So did Azmi and Aban who were tired.

Not long after the adhan was heard from the pesantren Mosque, they fell silent unaware of the maghrib adhan who was reverberating.

Adhan Maghrib finished, still they daydreamed not want to go from that place, fortunately there was ustadz Abdullah who came.Seeing members of the Shubband who daydreamed with compact ustadz Abdullah immediately approached them.

"Assalamualaikum."ustadz Abdullah.

The members of Syubband were shocked and immediately greeted ustadz .

"You do not hear the adhan, come in we will pray the jama'ah."ustadz Abdullah.

"Wes adzan anyway.Kok I'm not stupid."Udin .

"Yes, when is Adzan ?I'm not conscious either."The Word.

"It is better that you immediately ablaze and go to the Mosque not to join the congregation."ustadz Abdullah.

"Okay, if that's what we go first."Ahkams.

One by one they touched the hands of Ustadz Abdullah and said greetings.Ustadz Abdullah answered their greetings and smiled at the steps of the members of the Shubband who were about to enter the pesantren.

They were so uninspired together they stepped towards the ablution grounds after which they returned to their respective rooms.

Arriving Azmi in the room he immediately sat wiping his face with his hands that were still wet with abu water.Azmi saw Aban who was sitting grimacing in pain holding the edge of his left eye that had been given hansaplas.

"Ban, you don't papa Ban?" asked Azmi worriedly.

"No, I'm not papa just sick a little bit."Abans.

"Don't really papa because I saw a stone thrown really big, it's Azmi, Ahkam."Muhklists.

"He was right until the sound hit Aban."Ahkams.

Azmi simply nodded with a worried face looking at Aban.

"Emang tuh mas, mas Band really do ngelakuin it's not good enough and fortunately not right to his eyes Aban."Azmi's upset.

Qhamat..

"Well, let's go to the Yuk Mosque."Abans.

"Let's get some tires."Azchem.

Azmi,Aban, Ahkam, and Muhklis went together to the Mosque which was filled with santri. Jama'ah prayers are started by the santri to pray fervently after that they do not forget to teach and memorize - their memorization.

Azmi tried to focus as well as Aban who sat with Azmi memorizing.

The night lessons finished early. Azmi, Aban, Ahkam and Muhklis were busy hanging out in front of their room while chatting.

While busy talking Zakir and his two friends came to Azmi.

"Hi Azmi, how is the exercise fun?"asked Zakir smiling cunningly looking at Azmi who put on a lazy face.

"Emang you don't know Kir,"Azmi.

"What's up, I don't know."Zakirs.

"Lah, not earlier Ali said that there was a band boy who made a riot. It's a."Sihin with her beautiful face.

"Hin.Can't be quiet."Helmi next to Sihin.

"You don't have to make trouble again with Azmi and Aban."Ahkams.

Zakir did not answer and looked at Ahkam cynically he also looked at Azmi who looked tired .Suddenly Akmal came carrying members of Syubband approaching Azmi, Ahkam,Aban, and Muhklis.

"Assalamualaikum bro." said Akmal.

Everyone answered Akmal's greeting. Seeing the situation that poked Zakir smiled cunningly and planned something.

"Mas, I know why it happened this afternoon."Zakirs.

"Yes, because there are band kids that make a mess."Ali's.

"No. "Zakiris.

"Huh? you know the band's kids." asked Akmal.

"No mas I don't know but I'm sure Azmi, same Aban is the reason why I said that, because they are the unlucky bearers, before there they will be all right"zakir said confidently.

Hearing that Azmi and Aban turned towards Zakir.
