ADJOINING REALM
NEW PLAN

A week has passed, Darto and his two symbols must undo their plans, because Kakung is lying on his couch. His body was not well, maybe too tired to prepare a plan for a week, until he eventually fell ill.

"I'm sorry, Dar. Because Kakung everything becomes void" said Kakung while looking at Darto who was sitting and stomping Kakung's feet on the couch.

"Ndak papa, Kung. Kakung rest first, if the plan fails, we can make a new plan" said Darto without looking at Kakung's face, he continued to massage the legs of Kakung which had begun to shrink and shrink because it continued to be devoured age.

After a long time Darto stopped in Kakung's room, he rushed to leave Kakung alone in his room, he went to meet Si Mbah Turahmin who was daydreaming in the middle room.

"So how about I go home alone?" said Darto break the daydream of Si Mbah.

''Just startle you, Dar!" ketus Si Mbah muttered, he was really shocked after Darto suddenly stood right beside him.

"Si Mbah the daydreaming continues, which girl Mbah is again in thought?" the Canda Darto who managed to make Si Mbah in front of him snort raised one corner of his lips.

"You're this, cringe constantly the same old man, new qualities tau tasa, ha ha ha ha ha!" Mbah turahmin was uprooted after a little swearing and then again asked about the speech Darto had originally spoken. "What did you say?''

"What if Darto himself returns to the village, Mbah?" said Darto was a little worried, he realized how dear his two grandfathers, and he realized certainly would not get approval from them.

"May you, but you want to walk?" mbah Turahmin said while frowning his forehead on his wrinkled face.

"Jari Darto get in the car, Mbah!" darto answered while putting on a face of sumringah, he really did not believe Si Mbah turahmin gave permission for him to go home alone.

"Come, mumpung again this leisure," replied Mbah Turahmin then rushed towards Kakung's room.

After leaving Darto alone in the living room. Si Mbah came out of Kakung's room, carrying the garage key and also the car key in his hand, they both walked back to the garage located right next to Kakung's house, then go to a field not far from the pesantren.

"At least a week, Dar. You just let me bring your own car," said Si Mbah while giving the steering chair after arriving in the field.

Hearing Si Mbah's words, Darto nodded, then sat on the steering wheel with Si Mbah sitting next to him. One by one Simbah explained the function of objects located close to Darto, followed by explaining how to use the teeth and also three pedals in front of Darto's feet.

"Try it on now, Dar. We walk slowly for the practice of moving teeth," said Mbah Turahmin briefly while looking at his grandson who was focusing on memorizing all the objects in front of his face.

"What other thing, Mbah?" darto asked confusedly, he had never started a car at all during his life.

After grumbling enough about the nature of the Mbahnya, Darto immediately started his car, then trained his hands and feet to get used to how to drive. Unknowingly Darto and Si Mbahnya became a spectacle of residents living near the field. Naturally, at that time, people who had cars could still be counted with fingers, so they thought it was a rare spectacle.

"Indeed pinter you, Dar. mumpung still afternoon we immediately learn on the road, cepetan you point the wheel to the road," said Si Mbah a little surprised by Darto who immediately understood how to drive.

Hearing Si Mbah's orders, Darto immediately nodded with floating lips, he felt happy to be able to do new things in his life today, and finally he directed the car's pace towards the road.

After successfully getting into the big road, they decided to go home to the pesantren. Although still kagok, Darto managed to drive a car owned by Kakung until he reached the boarding school. Even Darto managed to put the car into the garage perfectly with a backward position, so that Si Mbah was surprised to make it.

"Tomorrow we go to the market, but you drive yes, Dar," said Si Mbah then closed the car door from outside.

Responding to Si Mbah , Darto just nodded then came out of the chair then rushed to close the garage. After completion, Darto rushed after Si Mbah who had left him first when Darto was locking the garage. He slightly ran over with a smile that kept floating on his lips.

Long story short a week has passed back, Darto is already adept at driving a car owned by Kakung. Unfortunately, even though Kakung has been getting weaker for a week, until he was taken to the hospital. So anyway Darto still had to go to his hometown, without being accompanied by his second grandfather.

"Gus, I come if I can," said Bidin who was eating with Darto in the shop Pak ndut.

That night Surip and Bidin accompanied Darto to break their fast at his grocery store, they ate together because they heard that tomorrow Darto was going home.

"Sorry Din, I really can't invite you or Harti, afraid you'll do anything" said Darto as he lowered his head.

"Yes, Gus. We pray for your success later, hopefully you can do your job smoothly," said Surip a little relieved, he was paled considering the long journey that continues to make him nauseous. In his heart he was grateful for not being invited to accompany Darto.

"I entrusted Si Mbah to Kakung ya Sur, Din. You are also considered their grandchildren, Pity that Harti is alone in the hospital to keep Kakung," said Darto a little guilty, he felt sad considering having to leave even though Kakung was sick.

After the two friends agreed, Darto looked a little relieved. Then invite them back to the pesantren to pray in the mosque. After the prayers were finished, they separated again, heading for their homes.

That night Darto was really busy at his house. He packed the items he had prepared from morning, both supplies and equipment needed for tomorrow's trip. Until finally all felt enough, Darto lay his body on his bedroom couch. The house really feels lonely without the presence of Kakung, Si Mbah is also accompanying Kakung in the hospital. Darto was completely alone in the mansion that night. In the quiet he continued to try, until finally he managed to fall asleep, fell asleep so soundly, even though his heart was overwhelmed with a sense of panic and anxiety that never subsided.
