Seeking Habiba

"Kang Aji, I'm looking for a toilet first huh?"

Ajimukti turned towards Habiba who had arrived to stand up.

"Want me to drop off, Ning?" Sahut Ajimukti while getting up from his seat.

Instantly Habiba's face flushed red and his expression changed drastically.

"Anu, Kang. Emmm, no need. That's... Emmm, that... I'll find it myself." Habiba said a little clumsy and looked very nervous.

"I'll just drop it, Kang." continued Habiba while pointing at the bag he left behind and still with a little clumsy Habiba speed up his steps.

Ajimukti only looked at Habiba who was impressed hurriedly stepped up. Now scratched his own scratch his forehead realized the mistake of the question just now.

Ajimukti again sat on the ceramic stairs in front of the closed shop. Now he has his shirt pocket. A bracelet that had been given by Habiba was now seen with a smile painted on his face. This bracelet is exactly the same as the bracelet that Habiba also wears. Ajimukti tried to wear the bracelet on his left wrist. And looked back at the bracelet with a distinctive smile from his lips.

Shortly after it was seen Faruq finally finished buying by. Some plastic that is large enough to carry in both hands. Faruq walked closer. Ajimukti immediately got up from his seat and helped carry Faruq's groceries, and immediately put them in the car according to Faruq's instructions.

"Well, where's Habiba, Kang?" Faruq asked shortly after realizing that Habiba was not with Ajimukti at this time.

"Anu, that, Gus. Ning Biba to the toilet." Answer Ajimukti.

"Alone, Kang?" Ask Faruq again.

"Yes, Gus. I wanted to bring. But her Ning Biba won't, Gus."

I don't know why Faruq actually smiled hearing Ajimukti's words.

"We've been waiting for him here, Kang." Faruq sat down where Ajimukti was sitting.

"So Habiba ended up buying it, Kang?" Ask Faruq then.

"So, Gus." Sahut Ajimukti brief.

"Buy what Kang the Habiba was?"

"Be..Just buy a bracelet, Gus." Ajimukti.

Faruq only nodded his head lightly.

"I'm sorry for the cigarettes, Gus?" Say Ajimukti then while opening his cigarette pack.

"Oh, yes, Kang. Please. Just cigarettes, Kang. Don't be shy."

Ajimukti just nodded lightly. And then light a cigarette.

At that moment without Ajimukti knowing, Faruq at first glance glanced at something that Ajimukti wore in his left hand.

"Kang Aji also likes kaoka's bracelet?" Ask Faruq then.

Ajimukti suddenly nervous and a little misbehaved.

"Anu, Gus. Emmm, this is... This was Ning Biba who bought it." Sahut Ajimukti hesitated.

Faruq slightly frowned.

"Daraba, Kang?" He asked full of curiosity.

"Yes, Gus." Ajimukti bowed while playing a cigarette in his hand.

Faruq no longer commented, silent he just smiled without Ajimukti noticing.

A few moments' lapse. Faruq looked at the watch in his hand. Ajimukti also saw an expression of anxiety.

"Habiba Kang Aji has been saying goodbye to his toilet for a long time?" Faruq's question began to look anxious.

"It's been a while, Gus." Sahut Ajimukti also saw the clock in his hand.

"Where's the kid? Did you stop by to buy something first?" Faruq was seen starting to wake up from his seat.

Ajimukti does not want to think like this at this time. Though worry was also a little on his face line.

Faruq tried to reach for his phone. Trying to contact Habibah.

Trp! Trp! Trp! The sound of the cell phone vibrated from the direction of the bag that Habiba left behind.

"Ah, that kid. Hape his wear left behind again." Faruq's grunts were now starting to really feel anxious.

"It's okay, Kang. Somehow Habiba might not be comfortable if he went to the toilet with a boy he had not known for a long time." Sahut Faruq while slightly throwing his smile towards Ajimukti.

"Am I looking for it, Gus?" Ajimukti's proposal is really starting to get a little anxious.

Faruq sighed. "All right, Kang Aji. We'll split up then."

"I'm trying to go that way, Gus. Ning Biba walked that way." Appoint Ajimukti later.

"Good, Kang. I try to find it around the market. Who knows if Habiba is looking for something in the market." Faruq.

"Good, Gus. Excuse me." Ajimukti immediately stepped towards Habiba who had said goodbye earlier, as well as Faruq immediately interrupted among the crowd of people in the market.

The wild Ajimukti look looking for the figure of Habiba in all directions. Already several public toilets he went to, even asked the toilet guard, but all answered not to remember who had come to the toilet.

Ajimukti kept his eyes fixed. His mind started to get a little anxious this time.

Elsewhere, Faruq also focused his gaze among the crowd of people around the market. Until almost the end of the market did not see the figure of Habiba there. Faruq was starting to look a little anxious. Moreover, Habiba did not bring his phone.

Ajimukti continues to circle the area even now he is almost at the end of the market. Ajimukti bowed his body as when ruku'. He tried to regulate his breathing.

"How, Kang?" Faruq's voice surprised him.

"Eh, Gus. Excuse me. Not see you, Gus." Sahut Ajimukti is now back on his feet.

"Yes, Kang. We're going back to that place. Who knows if Habiba is there." Take Faruq.

Faruq and Ajimukti went hand in hand, still looking left-right among the crowd at the market. But the figure of Habiba has not been seen. Until they arrived in front of the store that closed where Ajimukti and Habiba were sitting earlier.

"No, isn't there yet, Kang? Where's the kid?" Faruq grumbled again, now his face was truly emitting an aura of anxiety.

Ajimukti also looks so anxious plus a sense of disappointment because it did not accompany Habiba looking for a toilet. Several times Ajimukti just kept sighing.

"What now, Gus? Are we looking again?" Ask Ajimukti once again saw Faruq who had been pacing back and forth from anxiety.

At the same time a call came into Faruq's phone.

"Before, Kang Aji. From the cottage." Faruq said half a whisper.

"Hello, Assalamu'alaikum Pakdhe." Faruq said as he picked up his phone.

"Ma'alaikumsalam, Ruq. How Ruq the competition. Has there been an announcement which pesantren won the competition?" Kyai Aminudin asked from across the phone.

"Thank God, Pakdhe. Our pesantren are the champions this year." Faruq.

"Are you seriously Faruq?" Kyai Aminudin asked from across the street like she was happy.

"Yes, Pakdhe." Answer Faruq briefly.

"Where is Nak Aji?" Ask Kyai Aminudin later.

"It's there, Pakdhe. Does Pakdhe want to talk to Kang Aji?" Ask Faruq back.

"Later if you're back. When you guys are back. It's done, isn't it?" Ask Aminudin again.

"Already, Pakdhe." Again Faruq only answered briefly.

"Where is Habiba, Ruq?" Ask Kyai Aminudin again, this time asking his son, - Habiba.

Faruq was dumbfounded, confused as to what to answer. Kyai Aminudin would be furious if he knew that Habiba was not with him at the moment. But if he says Habiba exists, what if Kyai Aminudin wants to talk to Habiba. The question raged in Faruq's heart.

"Hello, Faruq. Habiba how?" Kyai Aminudin asked again from across the phone, awakening Faruq's daydream.

"Eh, yes, Pakdhe. Habibas.... Habiba's looking for those accessories." Said Faruq later.

"Oh yasudah. When you're done quickly bring it back, Ruq." Kyai Aminudin later said.

Shortly the phone closed. Faruq breathed a sigh of relief. At least Kyai Aminudin did not ask about Habiba.

The sky started to look a little blurry. Slowly the sun has begun to fade in the western sky. Sholawat tarhim has been reverberating from several nearby maritime mosques, indicating that it will soon enter Maghrib time.

Signs of Habiba's whereabouts are unknown to them. The agitated and anxious expressions of the two men were so clearly drawn on the face. Their eyes continued to hunt in all directions. Hoping to find Habiba around the parking lot.

Seriate...
