BROMOCORAS
Three Spells of Life

A few days after Ajimukti's trip and another to Pacitan.

A cool night with the occasional whistling breeze, under the dimly lit courtyard lights, a cup of coffee accompanied Ajimukti and Sobri's chatter tonight. All around them, the sounds of night insects starting to forage filled the night's astonishment clinging to the sound of dried leaves scattered by the wind.

"Have you heard about Ning Habiba, Gus?" Ask Sobri in the middle of their conversation tonight.

Ajimukti shook his head, "Not yet, Kang. I don't know, I'm confused too. Whether Ning Biba did not return to the pesantren or the administrator forgot to report."

Sobri nodded, "Then what, Gus? Emm, I mean, our next move?" Ask later.

"Come, Kang. Maybe we just wait until there is news from the boarding school in Pacitan, while we also continue to wait for news from Gus Faruq." Sahut Ajimukti later.

Sobri was silent for a moment, "Do we need to ask Kang Godril for help, Gus?" He said later, mentioning one of the names that made Ajimukti frown.

"What about Godril?" Ajimukti nodded lightly while scratching the end of his chin.

"Yes, Gus. Maybe we can ask Kang Godril for help. How, Gus?" Tanya Sobri once again suggested.

Ajimukti was momentarily silent and only nodded his head lightly, he seemed to have yet to decide for the time being. Sobri realized that.

"Just calm down, Gus. Just an effort. Isn't it Kang Godril's people scattered where. If not, he's got a lot of acquaintances in different areas." Sobri once again convinced Ajimukti on his proposal.

Ajimukti still just nodded. Ajimukti also remembered who Godril was and how many times Godril also brought his people to contribute to the construction of the Fadhlun Muthoriq boarding school a few years ago.

Godril in the eyes of some people may be just a street child who in fact will only be seen closely with all criminal acts. Yes, Godril is a street child who is quite respected and feared among other street children. Its followers are quite large and spread in various regions on the island of Java. But in recent years, he has repented and taught Ajimukti, even Godril since he intends to repent until now, has managed to memorize eighteen juz in the Qur'an. And now he managed to attract most of his people to repent.

"Kang Sobri please just call Kang Godril. Just send him a picture of Kyai Aminudin so Kang Godril can know." Say Ajimukti later.

"Good, Gus. I'll call Kang Godril soon." Sobri's voice was accompanied by a smile.

Ajimukti nodded lightly. Silent silence he also hopes, through the help of Godril later, he can immediately know the existence of Kyai Aminudin.

"That's right, Kang. I don't know whatever the outcome is that it's important that we try first." Say Ajimukti later.

"Yes, Gus. I'm sure, Gus. The more effort we put in, the closer we get to the results." Sobri sounds to build Ajimukti faith.

"Yes, Kang. Kang Sobri is right. I should not forget the three spells of life. But yeah.... His name is also human, although already know La tahzan wa la tayasuu. Howo keles is there." Ajimukti slightly closed his words with a small laugh.

"Well, this must be what you told me, Gus. The result of the same friendship Mbah Sukrono. So Gus Aufa started to recognize mantras." Sobri returned Ajimukti's laughter.

Ajimukti widened his laughter, "Walah, so until the one who met Mbah Sukrono, Lek Dul told Kang Sobri?" Ask later.

"Yes, Gus. So cool that you can meet his son-in-law Mbah Sukrono, Lek Gandung, his old friend." Sahut Sobri still slightly anointed his words with a smile.

"But really, Kang. Lek Dul meeting time with Mr. Gandung. It feels like 'Mak Jleb' that." Ajimukti remembers a little incident a few months ago when he accidentally met Gandung who turned out to be his old friend Dullah.

"But by the way, Gus. What are the three life spells that mean?" Sobri said arriving. From his face was clearly seen a picture of a real curiosity.

Ajimukti laughed, making Sobri frown.

"Why laugh, Gus?" Ask later.

"It wasn't from Mbah Sukro, Kang. Must have been thinking of a spell that hewes hewes did?" Ajimukti raises one of his eyebrows and points it at Sobri.

Sobri just laughed behind his hands which he closed to his mouth.

"Then what does Gus three spells mean?" Sobri was also curious.

"While, not what, Kang. sampeyan actually already knows, already memorized, already stuck out of his head." Ajimukti.

Sobri frowned again, a little confused between his curiosity.

"Look, Kang. Listen good yeah." Ajimukti seemed to take his breath in deep. Sobri observed it carefully, not wanting to miss what Ajimukti said.

"Sun amatek ajiku jolo sutro, I look like a kencana, jatiraga ana wetan, sun jalakake ragani wong jagad wetan, rut , kaerut. rut,rut, rut, rut, rut kadep teka lerep, teka welas, teka asahragane wong jagad wetan, atasih please me kabeh, kidul 'si kae anake kae', sun makulon 'si kae anake kae', lerpulungati life 'si kae anake kae' middle, Allahe, deans. Nabine wong jagad mid on pasih anguish me kabeh. Bussshh..." Ajimukti said a quick word and then blew towards Sobri after that laughing out loud.

Sobri patted his forehead, "That's a big test of jolo sutro pellets, Gus."

Ajimukti was laughing. Sobri put on a pouting face.

"Oh, yes, Kang. It means wrong, Kang." Ajimukti deliberately teases Sobri, and Sobri knows very well that.

"Ah, my niku, Gus Gus." Sobri still put on her pouting face.

"It's true, Kang." Say Ajimukti later. It looked serious this time. Sobri began to pay attention.

Ajimukti once again took a deep breath, "Alloohumma alfu ruhin Fulanah binti Fulan ruhin fiima komiha wa’matin wa’alfu salamatin wa’alfu bibarookatin wa’alfu mu’jizatin nabayyi salalloohu alaihi wa’alfu irhasin wa’alfu karaloomatin sulthoni auliya’ sayyidina Sheikh Abdul Qadir Jaelani ghodasalloohu sirrohul aziz wa’alfu hususiatin min hadzihi Fulanah bint Fulan wa’unatin birohmatika yaa arhamarroohimin..." Ajimukti once again quickly cast the spell and then covered it with a hand sweep to his face.

Sobri once again patted his own forehead, "This genius, Gus. That's a rapturous ali beetle. I don't know. Huuu...." Sobri sneered at his Gus.

Once again Ajimukti laughed because he had pranked Sobri. Sobri again put on a sullen face.

"This is seriously me, Gus. Even njenengan ki. Hmmmm..." Sobri still continued to put on her pouting face.

"This part of the boat, Kang. Our Wong learned together from childhood. So what I do know, surely sampeyan would have known." This time, Ajimukti was impressed.

"Yes, but the end of this relationship is different, Gus. I'm sure his insights are far above mine." Sobri is heard raising Ajimukti.

"Ah, who said it, Kang?" Ajimukti refutes Sobri's assumption.

"Lha, in fact the three spells of life I don't know." Sobri still brought up the matter of Ajimukti's speech at the beginning.

Ajimukti laughed again hearing that. It turns out that Sobri is still so curious about the three life mantras that Ajimukti briefly said accidentally.

"Hmmmm, as I said earlier Kang Sobri. Actually the sampeyan also knows, memorized even out of the head." Sahut Ajimukti while wiping his coffee that has begun to cool.

"But I just heard this, Gus." Sahut Sobri who also grabbed his coffee glass.

"Three spells are actually nothing, Kang. Not suluk, wirid or hizib and whatever it is called. It was just an expression, The three spells, the first one, Man Jadda wajada, who really will succeed. Second, Man shobaru zafira, who is patient will be lucky. And the third, Man yazro' yahsud, who plants will reap." Ajimukti turned towards Sobri.

"Where, Kang. Tidak knew? I'm not curious anymore, right? Memorized and blocked, right? Surely sampeyan will say, 'ooo... jebule that tho' right?" Ajimukti then laughed.

Sure enough, Sobri also laughed.

"But it's true, Gus. I was very curious." Sobri Sahut.

"But even though I already knew it. I am adding insight. So feel reminded again." continued Sobri again.

"Yes, we were talking about trying to find out the whereabouts of Kyai Aminudin. So I don't mean anything either. Know that you know that. E, even make sampeyan curious." Ajimukti once again laughed at the expression on Sobri's face that looked embarrassed because he had whined.

"Let's not forget Kang Godril ngggeh, Kang. Anyway about us trying to make efforts through Kang Godril I leave it completely the same until, Kang." Say Ajimukti later.

"Snouts, Gus. Sendiko dawuh." Sobri Sahut.

Ajimukti again sipped the rest of the coffee. Now he is also seen starting to light cigarettes under the darkening sky without stars. The wind continues to blow the cold tonight.

For a moment Ajimukti and Sobri are no longer heard talking, they are just as cool to smoke cigarettes in their hands. In that situation, Ajimukti's gaze was inexplicably fixed on his left wrist, and the gaze stopped right at the kaoka bracelet wrapped around his left wrist. In the silence his smile quietly expanded.

Seriate...
