Al Kahfi Land - Two Sides
Hole Time - Part 8
"No boss in the office?" ask Ali to Jajat.
"That's the one I wonder about! Mr. Didi said, just ran the boss to the airport, but just now the boss called me, he said he was again in the box house," said Mr. Jajat.
"Wrongly with you. Then the boss is in the box house, huh?" ask Ali.
"This coincidence! The boss said, Mas Fahri was his guest, you were told to anter to the boss's boarding house, no one can know the boss again in the box house and no one else can go there other than the two of you," said Mr. Jajat.
"Oh that? Okay, Mr. Jajat," said Ali.
Ali and Fahri leave Pak Jajat.
While walking through the office Ali smiled amusedly at Fahri, he was amazed to see a beautiful woman who had just passed by without reprimanding or turning to them.
"Ehm! Beautiful huh? Hahaha, so long as you have a crush on Soffie? But let's be beautiful, I'm really anti-she, women are stingy, negur aja should see caste first," grumbled Ali.
"Astaghfirlahaladzim, I don't think about it. Soffie looks a lot like my late mother. Especially if Soffie was wearing a hijab," said Fahri.
"Hahaha, alesan! But..." Ali looked at Fahri's face. "Geez, I just did it, let's have Soffie's face line on you. Don't you really come from the future? Maybe you're Soffie's son. Haha,"
"Al, wait!" greet other women who use a shabby jacket and carrying a motorcycle helmet.
Fahri recognizes this woman's face, but he is shocked because her appearance is very different in the future.
"Eh, Widi. Why?" sahut Ali stopped his steps.
"Says those office guys, you gamparin Desmond, right?" ask Widi who is carrying a motorcycle helmet.
"Not yet, the sissy is afraid, I challenge the storm," said Ali.
"Keep, do you really want to resign?" ask Widi.
"That's it. Eh, said Wid, later we will talk, I again called Mr. Erlangga, aware he was angry if waiting later. No greetings? Lu has a crush on Mr. Erlangga" joked Ali, he knew Widi really disliked Erlangga.
"That's males! Yes, yes, there! I also want to go to the project site" Widi said, then greeted Fahri before passing.
"You have a unique past. Deserves Dini said Al Kahfi Land save a lot of stories," said Fahri.
"I've met Erlangga is still pretending to be a future man, who is this? Here there is no such thing as Dini," said Ali.
"God willing, this is my future wife. Agreed no?" asked Fahri while grinning.
"Whatever! Am I the father?" said Ali.

On the island of Caracas in 2040, soon the sun peeked behind the horizon line of the sea.
Stevano packed his tents after performing congregational dawn prayers. He seems to have become a convert.
“According to me, we have to be on guard against the state apparatus. When we meet on the beach, we face it with firearms, but if you meet hills full of magnets, then your weapon technology is useless. We will fight as in the days of the Prophet, using the bow of the arrow. Who knows how to use an arrow?” ask Stevano.
Topa, Abew, Oblak and several inmates raised their hands. Some of the other inmates laughed.
“Eat him on prayers in mosque. Mr. Budi, in addition to ngajar njai, he also ngajar manah,” said Topa.
“Hahahaha, to the mosque? So blow a bedug aja, you on no pantes!” ledek an inmate.
“Part of your charity notebook has been ripped off by an angel, kali. Kagak kepake, hahaha,” ledek another prisoner.
“Basic you on, fur ketek Dajal! Hahaha,” reply Oblak.
Stevano laughed, although he enjoyed it but he had to finish this impromptu lenong event, he had to equip his troops with archery skills in a short time.
Elsewhere, Rudi, a member of the T7 Force that has 30 soldiers, has also moved. Rudi guessed Fahri must have been down a shallow rocky river nearby, the easiest way to reach the beach. Rudi wanted to intercept Fahri in this river.
Rudi also believes Fahri is easily defeated, because he carries advanced military weaponry, because of his arrogance, he does not want to take the time to learn the unique character of Caracas Island.

"Please enter, please do not close the door later" said the person behind the glass door of the box house.
Ali was amazed to see Erlangga who looked somewhat different. His appearance was more relaxed, indecent and seklimis usually. His face and attitude were suddenly friendly.
"Please sit down, friends," said Angga friendly.
"How are you doing Al?" ask Angga.
"Still the same, there has been no change of news" replied Ali cynically.
"Haha. Still angry with the world, Al?" canda Angga, then she turned to Fahri. "Famey! Ali Tanjung is my professor of business."
Ali caught the oddity, he was like rediscovering Angga whom he used to know.
"Don't confuse Al. Mr. Erlangga is going abroad again. I'm Angga, but I'm a few months older than you, from the future" said Angga
Ali was confused. Things about cross-timing increasingly made him feel a loss of sanity. He felt trapped Fahri came to meet Erlangga who he thought was as crazy as Fahri.
Angga smile. "Silence, Al. About business later you talk to Angga whose time is the same as you. Okay, we don't have too much time, but I've got a long talk about this time-traveling phenomenon. This must be a crazy whimper to you, but please take my explanation seriously, okay, Al?" ask Erlangga.
"It's up to you," said Ali who was still confused who was dealing with.
"Before I want to say, the principle that must be maintained by the time traveler is wise in managing knowledge. Because for different hosts of the time, some of that knowledge should remain secret. Not because of fear of fate becomes chaotic, because usually even the minds of people who receive it become chaotic. Well, Angga who is now, is experiencing chaos of mind, because he knows the secret of time when his mental is not ready," said Angga.
"Okay, I'm following this crazy discussion! You are wrong, in time travel, the visit of people from the future will make an alternative timeline. So, changes made by future people who go back to the past, will cause the storyline to be divided into two paths that will still run simultaneously," Ali corrected.
"Hehe, you mostly watch films produced by people who do not believe in the sixth pillar of faith anyway. This Fahri comes from the year 2040," said Angga.
Ali laughing. "I think my brain is damaged, lest you guys are also just my delusions."
"Give me proof, let me not need to go to a mental hospital," said Ali.
"Gue knows you're gonna ask this. Did I ask the door not to be closed? This is the reason, soon the door will be closed by itself due to strong winds," said Angga while looking at his watch.
Seconds passed but the door remained open.
Ali laughed, "maybe I need help" Ali said as he stood up and approached the door.
Suddenly the wind blew. BRAAK!!!! The door is closed.
Ali jumped in shock.
"AWAS! Lu don't.." yelled Angga.
THUMPED UP! "AMG!" ali shouted in pain. He fell because he tripped a carpet. Ali hid her pain in her hip that hit the floor.
"Gue just wanted to say, you don't back off," Angga said while laughing out loud.
"Ah, that's a coincidence" Ali said as he got up, silently stroking his hip.
"You are sick do not have to be shy, your phone screen is cracked right now," said Angga.
Ali pulled his phone out of his pants pocket, sure enough the screen cracked.
"Don't be bagged, your phone will fall again" said Angga.
Ali kept his phone. Sure enough, the phone fell again.
"Your left pants pocket should be your taro in the right pants pocket, in the original place, where you hang a small black stone," Angga said with a laugh.
"Udah, no! I mending believe," said Ali while taking his phone that fell, he was surprised Angga knew about the stone in his pocket.
"So someone told me about this before you got here?" ask Fahri.
"Who else would this hurt to me other than Al himself? Oh yeah, Fahri, it's your first time-travel but it's not your only trip. This earth turns out to have portals that allow us to enter different times, of course, with the permission of God," continued Angga.
"Hmm means the cave where I left and arrived here is a portal, must it have something to do with the black stone you gave me in 2040?" asked Fahri while looking for a small stone in his pocket. "Well, the stone is gone."
"Rubber. My father, Mr. Dheng, did some research on the black stone that contained those powerful electromagnetic waves. With the size of a stone near this box house, the black stone can send data across time, the larger the size of the black stone, it can send objects like humans. Mr. Dheng once distributed a black stone attached to a flash for me, Ali and Andi. Still snot, Al?" ask Angga.
"still. Huh huh? Mr Dheng is bokap you?" tanya Ali was shocked.
"Yes. But Angga who now do not know about this," said Angga.
"Hmm, the magnetic content pantes on the island that sent me here are very high, there are very many black stones electro-magnetic charged, very large, even in the form of cliffs" said Fahri.
"Well, Mr. Dheng definitely needs this information. Black stones are very rare. Now I explain how technically the black stones could have ushered Fahri. The cave whose wall material was the same as the black stone was the portal and the small black stone was the ticket, so when the portal detected the ticket, it was, then all those who are in the black stone Cave will automatically cross the time to the place where the small black stone came from when it was taken from its place, after the black stone was used it was not lost, but back to where it came from," said Angga.
