Mirsha again rubbed Naura's back.


"Gue go back first. Take care of your health" Mirsha took off a hug.


"Favor"


"Yes. Nye"

- Tok tok tok - tok


Naura was awakened by the knock of the room door several times. Half-conscious, Naura grabbed her phone. Seen on the screen, the clock shows at half-five in the morning.


"Ih, it must be mother" Upset Naura with her eyes half open. Then he went back to sleep.


- Tok tok tok - tok


Naura baby, wake up son! Fajr prayers dear! "


Hearing the door being knocked on, Naura was unable to fall asleep. And feel disturbed.


"Yes bund. Later, I was still sleepy" cried Naura while forcing her to close her eyes again.

"Astaghfirullahal.." Annoyed Yuni stroked the chest. Yuni, who was wearing a white face, passed away to start praying together with her husband in a special room, a room that is only allowed to pray and read the Quran. It is often called mushola.


Hilman who had been sitting in the mosque, waiting for his wife and children to come to perform congregational prayers.


"Where's Laura? Tumben is not coming. She sick?"Hilman asked when he saw the wife enter the room, but he did not see any of the children following him.


"Hm, he's another hitch yeah"


"And Naura?" Ask Hilman back.


Yuni shakes.


"Looks like he's very difficult to teach us"


"I mean dad, is.. "


"We will talk about this after the prayer" Cut Hilman while standing straight, preparing to perform the two raka'at dawn prayer.


"Allahu akbar" Started with the intention, Hilman as the priest began takbir. And Yuni, as a teacher, began to follow the priest who was in front of him. After he stood up.

"Assalamu'alaikum warohmatullah" Sitting and ending with greetings, Hilman read it twice, to the right shoulder and the left shoulder.


"Assalamu'alaikum warohmatullah" Yuni followed.


After the greeting, they rubbed the face with both palms. They raised both palms to the sky. Then Hilman read some prayers. And Yuni guaranteed it.


"Amin yarobbal 'alamin" after the prayer is finished, they close it by rubbing the face again.


Hilman turned his body, to face backwards. Facing Yuni who was sitting behind him. As usual, Yuni kissed the back of her husband's hand. And Hilman kissed his wife's forehead.


"So how well, are you sure of dad's decision? What is the best place for Naura? Didn't you think about it one more time, to make the final decision?" Yuni asked repeatedly as she looked at the husband's face.


"Dad thought, we did not educate him. Because I was busy in the office, while mom was busy taking care of the house. Naura is always busy with her business. Later I will release all office business on Naura. And I think, after Naura goes there, Naura will focus more on studying religion to become a prayer woman. Like what we want"


"But, yeah. Mother was afraid of anything happening to Naura while she was living there. Because we know, Naura was so reckless, yeah"


"Mother don't worry. I've left it to my best friend, Mr. Bilal. Mr. Bilal is the kiyai and the leader of the boarding school. And anyway, the Baron was there, wasn't he? So, mother, don't worry anymore. Naura must be safe" Hilman explained reassuringly Yuni's worried heart.


"When is Naura going to go there?"


"What if it's three more days?"


"W-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-, not too fast?" Tanya Yuni made sure.


Yuni sighed. "It's best for Naura, God willing you'll agree"


Hilman was relieved by his wife's approval to put their daughter into the boarding house. Where the place is, will bring Naura to be closer to her god.

"Huaahh" Naura yawned and wriggled. He rubbed his eyelids and opened them slowly. Half conscious, he looked at the window. His eyes were squashed, as a light in the drapes of the curtain, highlighted it. He immediately got out of bed to approach the large and long window behind the curtain.


-srett


The curtains were opened wide. The whole room was instantly bright.


His eyes widened, seeing the sun rising above him. He looked at the wall clock, and the clock showed seven o'clock. Her eyes grew increasingly wide.


"Oh no!"


He grabbed a pink towel hanging from his room. And ran towards the bathroom door. But his fate when he was running, he actually stepped on a slippery cloth lying on the floor.


- Gabrugk


The slippery cloth had made him slip and fall. It turned out that the cloth was his clothes that he had torn apart last night in his closet, until the room was very scattered and messy.


"Aw, my ass" he said. But he forced his body to stand up and go into the bathroom. Although his butt still hurts from the impact earlier.


After a few minutes in the bathroom, he finally went out and picked up his clothes in the closet to wear. After that, he sat on a chair in front of a table filled with powder and lipstick and a large mirror in front of him, to apply his makeup.


Not to forget also he circled in front of a mirror that was bigger than the previous mirror. Seen in the mirror, he was wearing a red long-sleeved women's suit. Long black pants that are a little loose. And the high shoes are also red. Make up that makes her face look beautiful. Black and thick hair further beautify her. Then he grabbed his expensive parfume and sprayed it into every corner of his clothes.


After being ready with his look, he picked up his small sling bag which was also red in color. He immediately walked to the door to get out. Again, fate approached him. He stepped on the slippery cloth earlier, namely his own clothes until he slipped and fell down. His position was now sitting, but his knees and hands were stuck to the floor.


- Gabrugk


"Aarr"


Nope!


Non Naura why is it inside?


The voice behind the door called out to Naura.


Naura immediately got back up and tidied up her clothes. Then he kicked the cloth out of annoyance.


-ceklek


"Gue's fine, Ma'am" he answered tightly after opening the door and saw Susi in front of the door with a vacuum in her hand.


"Non Really?" ask Susi to make sure.


"Yeah.. I finished my room first!" the upset. Susi just nodded obediently and started to step inside the room.


Susi was a little surprised by the whole room which was like a broken ship.


"Hish, it's done. Don't be surprised like that. I'm used to seeing my room like this, right?"


Susi just nodded in confirming.


"Yes, just sort it out! It's clean, Ma'am!" Then Naura immediately stepped towards the stairs in a slight hurry.


"Yes, Non" Susi nodded obediently.


Naura came down the stairs one by one quickly.


"Dear morning" Sapa Yuni who was preparing breakfast for her family.


"For brother. Come here breakfast sis" Maura, youngest daughter of Hilman and Yuni. She's only 14.


"Morning, Bun. Morning Deck. Brother wants to go straight away. His breakfast at the cafe" Reply indifferently with a slight knotty smile.


"Naura! You have to have breakfast here! Because my mother has prepared for us! Sit down!" Hilman's word is a little firm.
