BROMOCORAS
True Friend

"Is this really the address, Gus?" Ask Sobri when the two of them arrived in front of a house according to the instructions directed by the maps that Nyoman sent to Ajimukti.

"Yes, Kang. According to the location plan that Nyoman sent me, this is his house." Sahut Ajimukti once again observed the location plan on his phone screen.

"I parked, Gus." Said Sobri while confirming their car parking position.

Before long the two got out of the car and immediately headed to the yard of the house that was not too wide. Several times Ajimukti said greetings but there was no sign of people from inside the house.

"Looks like no one, Gus." Sobri said after they had spoken greetings several times.

"Yes, Kang. Will we come back next time, Kang?" Sahut Ajimukti later.

"But we've come a long way here, Gus. Shouldn't we wait a minute." Sobri's advice afterwards.

Ajimukti only then nodded. And they also took a seat in the house's apartment to wait for the owner of the house if it comes back soon.

"This Mas Mas looking for Mas Wangsa huh?" Tegur someone when it makes Sobri also Ajimukti a little surprised..

"Womans? We're looking for Nyoman, sir. Is this really his house?" Ask Ajimukti while getting up from his seat and approaching the person.

"Oh, yes, Mas. The house or Nyoman is one person. If people in this village call him House." Obviously the man then.

"Oh, so yes, sir. Then, do you know where Nyoman is, uh I mean House, sir. You see we called from earlier there was no answer." Ajimukti said to the man explaining.

"If it's this hour he's usually on the highway up there, ma'am." Answer the person while pointing his hand in a direction towards the road.

"He sells fruit there." The man continued to tell.

"Oh, so yes, sir. Thank you then Sir. We'll just look for him there." Sahut Ajimukti later.

"Yes, Mas. Just search there. He's usually there. It's near the stall, Mas." Get that guy again after.

"Good, Sir. Thanks again." Again with Ajimukti.

Shortly after the conversation with that person and that person passed from before them. They immediately rushed to the highway to find Nyoman's stall according to the direction of the man earlier.

Some time they searched along the sidewalk of the highway they finally found a fruit stand not far from a food stall according to the instructions of the person who told them earlier.

"Maybe it's Nyoman's field, Kang." Show Ajimukti from the car.

"Looks, Gus. If according to the man's lead, it's true, Gus." Sahut Sobri then while observing the stall appointed by Ajimukti.

Shortly after, while they were making sure that the stall belonged to Nyoman or not, someone stopped in front of the stall, another person who seemed to have been in the stall half-running was immediately headed to the stall. Looks like the one who stopped in front of the stall was a buyer.

Ajimukti observed someone who had just come out of the stall. A person with a slightly tall posture with a collared horizontal striped t-shirt. It is not very clear when viewed from where Sobri parked his car, but Ajimukti is quite able to memorize the person from his tall posture.

"Yes, Kang. That's Nyoman." Say Ajimukti with a fluffy smile when he sees Nyoman.

"We're there, Kang!" Ask Ajimukti after that.

"Well, Gus."

They immediately got out of the car and walked combing the sidewalk to Nyoman's fruit stand.

"Siki kilo kude niki, sir?" Say Ajimukti while slightly bowed pointing to one of the fruits arranged on Nyoman's foot. Sobri mangamati Ajimukti and a little holding back laughter, he knew Ajimukti was trying to prank his old friend.

"Strap the rope." Sahut Nyoman with her signature unsuspecting Balinya accent.

"Dados kuang, sir." Ask Ajimukti again as if bidding.

"Dados kuang bedik." Sahut Nyoman friendly.

"Well sir?" Tawar Ajimukti's.

"Thank dados for mercy. Horse kal meli nike?" Sahut Nyoman later.

"Siki manten sir." Ajimukti said that the money was directed towards nyoman.

Nyoman deftly took the plastic and immediately wrapped the fruit that Ajimukti offered.

"Bli, Niki pole Bali Nggih?" Ask Nyoman while handing over the goods offered by Ajimukti.

Ajimukti smiled, "No, Bli. I have a Balinese friend. So a little bit can." Ajimukti.

"Oh, deserved, can base Bali." Nyoman is still unsuspecting.

"Niki pesne, Bli." Ajimukti offered something, not money but a picture of their togetherness while in the pesantren.

At once Nyoman was aghast then immediately observed good Ajimukti.

"Aufa? You?" Nyoman said at once was still a little incredulous.

Ajimukti laughed immediately.

"Party of you, Bli. Very spirit, until your own friend comes you do not have the gas." Seloroh Ajimukti wags his hand a little

"Sorry sorry, Bli." Sahut Nyoman later.

"Why didn't you tell me it's now open the stall, Bli?" Ask Ajimukti while following Nyoman sitting not far from the stall between the shady places.

Nyoman smiled, "This is just a stepping stone, Bli. Not too long ago either. Well, it's been at least the last three or four months." Sahut Nyoman's.

Ajimukti just nodded.

"Oh, yes, Bli. How, is there any news about Arya?" Ask Ajimukti later.

Nyoman shook her head and stood up from her seat, "Not yet, Bli."

Before long, he went into the stall and after a while he came out again carrying three cups of coffee.

"Why bother, Bli." Ajimukti.

"When you can have coffee like you used to, Bli." Sahut Nyoman chuckled.

"Oh, yes, Bli. Not yet acquainted. This is my friend. Sobri. Friends and brothers." Ajimukti said introducing Sobri to Nyoman.

"Yes, Bli."

"How, Bli. A lot of basics here?" Ask Ajimukti later.

"Yes, how ya, Bli. A lot of it's not, it's just a practice, Bli. Well, it's enough to meet the daily needs." Sahut Nyoman's.

Ajimukti nodded lightly.

"Emmm, what if Bli comes with me to help in the boarding school?" Tawar Ajimukti later.

Hearing that Nyoman turned to Ajimukti with wide eyes, then laughed afterwards.

"God, Aufa. You still like to joke." Nyoman's voice was among her laughter.

"Loh, I'm not kidding, Bli. Seriously this." Sahut Ajimukti after that.

Nyoman shook her head lightly.

"What can I help you with there?" Nyoman.

"Don't always go low, Bli. I know you not for two days. I know very well your abilities, Bli." Say Ajimukti afterwards.

"Hmmm..." Nyoman only then sighed.

"Remember, Bli. Al - 'ilman nafi'an Bi 'amalin. Science is beneficial when practiced." Say Ajimukti while patting Nyoman's knee.

"Know me, Bli. It's just that I still feel so unworthy of it." Sahut Nyoman's.

Ajimukti smiled, "The word deserves someone, Bli. It's not us who put it to ourselves."

"Smazy you, Bli. Always never win if you have to argue with you." Say Nyoman.

"Well, that's it, Bli." The Ajimukti debate also laughs.

"Why not Arya, Bli. You know for yourself how he is capable. He'd be a big help if you recruited him, Bli." Say Nyoman then.

Ajimukti laughed, "You know, Bli. Arya from the beginning was the santri who freed herself. He's always got his own way out there without us guessing." Sahut Ajimukti later.

Nyoman nodded her head justifying Ajimukti's words.

"What I heard is he also has two followers, Bli. It's just like a friend, but Arya's been very influential on her two followers." Say Nyoman then.

"So it looks, it's interesting that boy." Ajimukti.

"It's very hard to guess once the boy. Even to find it is really hard, Bli." Nyoman Imbuh.

Ajimukti only then nodded his head.

"Oh, yes, Bli. By the way when is makurenan pole?" Ask Nyoman later.

Ajimukti then laughed hearing that.

"God willing, Bli. As soon as." Sahut Ajimukti later.

"Well, whoa, whoa... Is there a candidate then?" Nyoman seemed happy to hear that.

"God willing, Bli. Just do it."

"Don't forget. News, Bli. I'm waiting for the invitation." Sahut Nyoman's.

"Sure, Bli. I must ask your prayer, Bli." Ajimukti also followed.

Nyoman returned to hear that.

"I can only accept it, Bli. As for prayer, you will be more in jabah." Nyoman again.

Ajimukti laughed again.

"I wish you'd met Arya to let me know, Bli." Ajimukti said again about Arya.

"Of course, Bli. I'll let you know. You take it easy, Bli." Sahut Nyoman.

"Suksma, Black. I really want to know how the kid is now." Say Ajimukti later.

"Aryans. Indeed, the child when close to make emotions. But if long time does not meet it turns out to make kangen too yes, Bli." Said Nyoman while chuckling.

"That's why I consider him a friend, Bli. Sahiba, participate. So where do I go he keeps nginthil in my mind." Seloroh Ajimukti laughs.

Hearing that Nyoman could not not not laugh with Ajimukti.

"I salute you, Bli. It feels like there is no luck to me in this world other than because I was introduced to you as well as my best friend." Said Nyoman later.

Ajimukti slightly frowned.

"Well, why is that, Bli?" Ask Ajimukti later.

Nyoman smiled, "A friend cannot be called a friend until he is tested in three circumstances. When you need it, what is the attitude that he shows behind you, and what is his attitude after your death. And you, Bli. You've already shown an attitude as a friend, Bli."

Ajimukti patted Nyoman's knee once again.

"Don't overdo it, Bli. I just nyontho my father, how my late father treated his friend." Ajimukti.

"But more often we will meet a good friend just in front, behind even a rarenan, Bli." Nyoman.

"It's just fruit, Bli. The fruit we plant for us to harvest. Today, for example, we digrasani one of our friends, it could be tomorrow me or you go back to fraternity with a friend that we had previously discussed, Bli." Ajimukti later.

"Yes, you're right, Bli." Sahut Nyoman.

After that they continued to talk while Nyoman occasionally served some buyers who stopped by her yard. Today was quite blistering, but under the shady tree there was a warm chatter that made the scorching atmosphere during the day not so they felt.

Seriate...
