BROMOCORAS
Go home!

This morning at the Prastowo residence. On the terrace of the house that is not too wide. Prastowo was enjoying a cup of his ginastel tea before leaving to pick up Ajeng, his daughter. Not far from him, right in front of him, in the other chair, Sobri also just started sipping black coffee which is still seen reflecting the steam that Sumiatun treats him.

"Today's coming home, Bri. That means that from today you have to try to win her heart if you really want to be my daughter-in-law." Kelakar Prastowo while offering tempe mendoan served on the plate.

"God willing, Mr. Lek. I will just try as much as I can. The rest of Ajeng will ultimately decide whether I have the right to occupy his heart or not." Sobri's voice was calm with a smile on her lips.

"Mas Aji hasn't heard of when you're back here, Bri?" Prastowo asked as he chewed on the mendoan tempeh in his mouth.

"Say you today, Lek. It just so happened that this morning I took my dad's phone." Sobri Sahut.

"Hmmm..." Prastowo. "Your father is healthy, isn't he, Bri?" Ask later to Sobri.

"Thank God, Mr. Lek. You're healthy." Sobri again.

"Not come here?" Ask Prastowo then.

"It doesn't seem like it, Mr. Lek. You see, I'm here, the pesantren will be overwhelmed if there is a shortage of people." Sobri's law after that.

Prastowo nodded in understanding.

"You finish your coffee first, Bri. Keep this also on the porch first, gawe ganjel weteng." Prastowo again offers his wife's homemade prayer tempeh to Sobri as he returns to pluck one and then immediately devours it.

Sobri just nodded then sipped his coffee which was still a little hot, after that, along with enjoying the tempe mendoan with Prastowo.

While it was far away elsewhere in the courtyard of the Fadhlun Muthoriq boarding school. Ajimukti was preparing to go back to Pondok Hidayah.

"Sampeyan of the heart, Mas. Anyway I tipped Sobri." Said Dullah when delivering Ajimukti's departure.

"Lek Dul is calm when it comes to Sobri. It is precisely I who once asked Lek Dul to help Sibu also this pesantren." Ajimukti.

"If it's about pesantren, Mas. Without aturi, I have promised myself, just die my urip ya in this boarding school as mandated by Kang Salim to me." Sahut Dullah later.

After saying that, they embraced. However, Dullah was like his own father for Ajimukti.

"Just take care of yourself yo, Le. And soon tell Sibu that it's there." Nyai Kartika's message afterwards.

"Injeh, Mom. Sibu also takes care of herself here. If anything please help Kang Hasan, Kang Wahid or Lek Dullah to inform me." Say Ajimukti later.

"You take it easy, Le. You can take care of yourself too. Even Sibu is worried about you, sometimes you are watching." Kelakar Nyai Kartika while rubbing Ajimukti's head.

Ajimukti soon thrust into his mother's arms. Nyai Kartika also returned his child's embrace while rubbing the back of Ajimukti's head.

"Nyuwun ridhanipun Sibu, ngggeh." Bisik Ajimukti with a soft voice.

"Surely, Le. Ridho Sibu will always be included in every step of you, Le." Sahut Nyai Kartika while taking off his embrace. There was a sense of heaviness when his son's embrace was released.

"Mom nitip salam ya make gendhuk." Nyai Kartika later said.

Ajimukti just nodded his ass.

After a short time Ajimukti and Manan were the same as getting into the car. This time too, Manan who re-held the wheel of their journey back to Pondok Hidayah.

"We will pass Wonosari, Nan." Say Ajimukti after they exit the pesantren area.

"Loh, that means you're not going through Klaten, Jik?" Sahut Manan's.

"No, we're going through Wonosari. I'd like to stop by somewhere first." Sahut Ajimukti later.

"But I don't understand the way, Jik." Tymphal Manan's.

"Then, follow the directions only. Open Maps when confused." Ajimukti.

Manan immediately saw the direction of the road on the monitor screen on the dashboard of the car he was driving.

"Wonosari, Semanu, Pracimantoro, Giritontro, Donorojo, Punung. Emmm, I know where you're going." Sahut Manan nodded and smiled.

Ajimukti sneered, "Good, just follow the directions if you understand, Nan."

"Ready, Jik." Sahut Manan chuckled.

Elsewhere, Ajeng and Habiba are also preparing to be with other students. They talk to each other and are occasionally seen taking each other off with hugs. There were many expressions of sadness visible on the faces of the santri's faces. This is the last time they were together in this pesantren.

"Habiba, who will you pick up?" Tanya Ajeng who saw Habiba walking towards him after earlier had taken off the return of one of their friends who had been picked up by his family.

Habiba raises his shoulders, "Not yet, Jeng. Possibly Abah." Legally.

Habiba knew that if his brother could not rent a car to pick him up, he would probably take the bus to go home. But even so he did not want to be frank with Ajeng at this time.

"You picked up your father yourself?" Ask him later.

Ajeng nodded, a different expression than before was seen on Ajeng's face.

"Why are you, Jeng?" Ask Habiba later. Even though he was currently feeling sadness, but he still could not if he saw his friend was sad.

"Yuk yuk, Ba." Said Ajeng who then had his expression turned cheerful again. Habiba just nodded and looked strangely at Ajeng whose facial expression could turn erratic like this.

Prastowo himself who is currently with his wife and Sobri has almost half the journey to Pacitan. Sobri who was sitting behind the wheel did not say much, he only focused on the road he went through.

"How do you keep quiet, Bri? Are you thinking of something?" Tanya Prastowo who sat in the back bench with Sumiatun, his wife.

"Ah, don't think what, Mr. Lek." Sobri half wrong.

Prastowo then glanced at his wife. Sumiatun only slightly threw a smile at him. Sumiatun did not want to comment much at the moment. He was actually a little doubtful of Prastowo's intention to bring Sobri closer to his daughter, considering Ajeng his daughter since seeing Ajimukti seemed to have been so sympathetic to the young man.

"This car I used to buy is only half the price offered, Bri. Although it's an old car, but since this car I used never once fussy." Prastowo said a little stale just looking for chat material.

"Half price? What does that mean, Mr Lek?" Although not really understand what Prastowo is discussing, but Sobri is a little interested in this discussion.

"So long ago, the initial owner of this car was a friend of Mr. Lek mu Anggoro, Bri. Well, the transaction time, happened to be Kang Salim time fitting in my house. So because who owns this car pekewuh same Kang Salim. So yes I just asked to pay half the price deal, Bri." Remember Prastowo then.

"Well, that's lucky, Mr. Lek." Sahut Sobri while staying focused with the handle of the wheel.

"Yes, Bri. Alhamdulillah. Thanks to Kang Salim who is so reluctant and respected by many people." Prastowo said afterwards.

"Indeed, Mr. Lek. Kyai Salim is also good at preaching, he is also very good at hugging people. It's rare to see Kyai now as much as Kyai Salim did." Sahut Sobri added.

" Right, Bri. That's why when I first met Dullah and Mas Aji. It feels like my anxiety has gone away, Bri. I'm sure Mas Aji will be like Kang Salim." Prastowo said later.

"Aamiin, Mr. Lek. I also hope Gus Aufa in the future can really be a scholar who besides alim also waro'." Sobri Imbuh.

The conversation that initially only discussed trivial things over time became long and discussed various things. Until unconsciously they have arrived at the boarding school where Ajeng nyantri.

Ajeng who had been waiting since morning immediately welcomed the arrival of Prastowo and Sumiatun, but Ajeng was a little surprised when he saw Sobri coming to pick him up this time.

"Kang Sobri?" Sapa Ajeng saw the figure of Sobri.

Sobri just slightly threw a smile, "How are you doing Dik Ajeng?" Ask Sobri later.

"Thank God, Kang. As you can see." Sahut Ajeng's.

"Only Kang Sobri is coming, sir?" Tanya Ajeng turned to Prastowo.

Prastowo nodded, while Sumiatun knew what her daughter's question meant

"Your father's a little tired, Nduk. So ask for help from Nak Sobri to enter the case." Said Sumiatun later. Prastowo just confirmed, he knew the meaning of his wife saying that.

"Yes, Dik Ajeng. And it just so happens that I'm the loosest today." Imbuh Sobri because he also knew the meaning of the Ajeng question.

Ajeng just curled his lips.

"Yes, Nduk. You bring out all your goods so that later Sobri help input into the car. Same mom wants to see the manager first." Prastowo said later.

Ajeng just nodded then went inside to take all his stuff. Prastowo and Sumiatun went inside to meet Kyai and the boarding school.

Not long ago, Ajeng had finished taking out all his luggage and had said goodbye to all his friends including Habiba.

"I'm sorry, Kang. So troublesome sampeyan." Ajeng said as soon as Sobri finished arranging his goods into the car.

"Don't hesitate, Brother." Sahut Sobri flat while throwing a smile.

"What's up, Kang?" Tanya Ajeng later.

Sobri slightly turned towards Ajeng. Actually he was sure that what was meant in the Ajeng question this time included Ajimukti.

"Alhamdulillah, Brother. There are some new santri. Old Santri has also been growing rapidly. Gus Aufa is currently visiting Bu Nyai to Jogja with Kang Manan." Sobri said also about Ajimukti which is currently in Jogja.

"Oh, Kang Aji is with Manan again to Jogja, Kang." Ajeng slightly nodded then looked smiling even though it was not so visible.

Before long Prastowo and Sumiatun also came out of the pesantren and immediately invited Ajeng and Sobri to return home.

"Aren't you tired, Bri? If I'm tired of changing my car." Prastowo said to Sobri.

"No, Mr. Lek. Let me just." Sobri's reply looked convincing.

Prastowo then nodded, "Then. We'll find a food stall and rest then." Said later.

Sobri just nodded.

"Sir, you sit in front. Let me same mother in the back." Prastowo said later.

Ajeng a little awkward though then he just according to what his father said after Sumiatun gave him a gesture with a nod of the head.

Soon their car came out of the boarding school area. Just at that time a silver BMW i8 Coupe came from the opposite direction and was seen entering the boarding area.

Seriate...
