It's Not Worth Calling Gus!

Plaque!

A loud slap grabbed the cheek of a man in a Levis jacket. Instantly he threw away his face while enduring the pain in his wrist.

"Basic useless!" A man in an artist's hat sounded cursing with emotion.

"I'm sorry, Boss." The Levis-jacketed man was trembling and just kept his head down.

"sorry. Excuse me. You think enough of your apologies? I'm just telling you to take care of one kid you guys failed. What can you guys really do? Tired of coming with me?" The man in the artist's hat increasingly showed his anger.

"But the boy has mastered martial arts, Boss. And...."

"I don't want to know your reasons." The man in the artist's hat cut off the speech of the man in the Levis jacket. Immediately the man in the Levis jacket grew trembling with fear.

Soon another man was seen coming into the room.

"Go you!" Said the artist hat man to four of his men. The four of them immediately walked out of the room with still a slight tremble.

"What's Kang Baron? Looks like Kang Baron isn't okay?" Asked the man who had just entered the room with a slight smile on his face.

"Shut up, Suko! You should know why I called you." The man in the hat of an artist named Baron.

Suko, the man who had just entered the room just nodded in understanding.

"I hope you don't fail like them!" Said Baron while sitting on the chair of the room.

Suko smiled cynically, "Does that mean Kang Baron is underestimating my abilities?" His words seemed to dislike the word Baron said to him.

"It's not so, Suko. I know your abilities. Maybe your abilities were nothing compared to mine. I admit that age affects all. And your present abilities may have already surpassed my former abilities." Said Baron while putting a cigarette in his long pipe.

"How much is my ability improved. I still couldn't possibly be more powerful than Kang Baron. But I make sure I won't let you down, Kang." Sahut Suko later.

"I heard from them. The boy has a little bit of martial power." Said Baron while smoking a cigarette in a pipe tucked in his mouth.

Suko smirked, "Good, Kang. I love the challenge."

"Do you need to bring people?" Ask the Baron.

Suko said, "Still you sound underestimating to me, Kang?" Suko looks to shake his hand.

The baron seemed to smile between his mustache and the thick bewok.

"All right then. I've been wrong since I took you, Suko." Baron's words further widened his smile.

Suko only then smiled widely.

"I think I understand what I have to do, Kang. If there's no need anymore, I'm sorry, Kang." Said Suko later.

"Where are you going?" Asked Baron slightly raising his eyeballs looking at Suko.

"My niece wants to ask me a little help, Kang. There's a friend of his who wants to find someone's whereabouts." Suko Sahut.

"Hmmm...!" The baron then nodded lightly, "Go! And once again make sure the mission this time does not disappoint!" Baron continued to order.

"Just calm down, Kang. Leave everything to me. I make sure everything is as Kang Baron wishes." Suko sounded confidently.

Suko soon moved out of the room. While Baron still looks upset and a little emotion over the failure to his four men. He punched the table in front of him hard.

Meanwhile, in Pondok Hidayah, Ajimukti had just ended the study of the book of Ihya' ulumuddin. As soon as the study this afternoon aged, Ajimukti rushed back to ndalem. But not yet had time to reach ndalem, Ajimukti met cross paths with Khalil and Imam, two of the senior trio who used to be his senior but now instead became santri care.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Guys..." Sapa Khalil and Imam simultaneously saw the figure of Ajimukti. Those who used to always prank Ajimukti, now can only bow their heads every time they meet Ajimukti.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, Kang Khalil, Kang Imam..." Reply Ajimukti friendly.

"Where are the two of you?" Ask Ajimukti later.

"Anu, Gus. It's from the front, sent Gus Faruq to get a copy." Sahut Imam while showing some sheets of HVS paper in his hand.

Ajimukti just nodded his head.

"Oh yes, Kang. How's Kang Budi doing?" Tanya Ajimukti arrived.

Khalil and Imam then looked at each other.

"Record, Gus. Ever since Budi left that time, we've never heard from Budi again." Sahut Khalil bowed his head.

"Oh, yasudah, Kang. I think I both know about Kang Budi." Sahut Ajimukti later.

"Mboten, Gus." Sahut Imam also with a down position.

"Yes, Kang. Monggo was escorted to Gus Faruq." Say Ajimukti later.

"Record, Gus. Is there time?" Khalil arrived.

Ajimukti slightly frowned glancing at Khalil.

"Look, Gus. Emmm, that... Anu..." Khalil seemed hesitant to speak. Ajimukti is just waiting for what Khalil wants to say this time.

"I... I want to apologize for everything I've done to you, Gus. I really don't know the truth, Gus." Khalil said a little.

At the same time the Imam said the same thing to Ajimukti. Ajimukti now smiles at what Khalil and Imam told him this afternoon.

"Already, Kang. The past let it pass. Now is the time to expand our practice of kindness. And about whatever happened in those days, I have forgiven njengan njengan sami, Kang. It is precisely now that I thank Kang Khalil as well as Kang Imam for reminding me, so I can also apologize to Kang Khalil and Kang Imam."Ajimukti said at length in response to the apology of Khalil and the Imam.

Khalil and Imam again threw eyes at each other.

"Sorry for what, Gus. There is nothing wrong. It is precisely we who have done a lot of wrongs and injustice the same genengan, Gus." Timpal Manan later.

Adjimukti again smiled, "Kang Khalil's mistake was also Kang Imam it arose because of my mistake. I was not honest with who I was from the beginning. Indirectly, I have lied to you about my identity, right, Kang?" Say Ajimukti afterwards.

"But we're sure now, Gus. That's all you can do for a definite reason, Gus." Sahut Imam's.

later then.

"All the mistakes made, of course, are reasonable, Kang. Either a definite reason or just a reason to make." Ajimukti.

Khalil and the Imam then just nodded and bowed back.

"So can Kang Khalil and Kang Imam also forgive me?" Ask Ajimukti later.

"Of course, Gus. Stir once if we don't apologize to njenengan." Sahut Khalil fast.

"Ikhlas right, Kang?" Ask Ajimukti.

"Lillahi ta'ala, Gus." Imbuh Khalil while the Imam just nodded approving of Khalil's remarks.

"Thank God, Kang." Ajimukti is smiling again.

"If you need any help don't hesitate to tell us, Gus." Khalil said later.

"Yes, Gus. Whatever it is." Imbuh Imam's.

"Yes, Kang. Insha'allah. Oh, yes, Kang. One more..." Saying Ajimukti is like remembering something.

Khalil and Imam slightly raised their heads looking curiously at Ajimukti.

"What's up, Gus? Does anyone want to tell you? Just tell me, Gus." Khalil said later.

"What's not, Kang. It's just a matter of Kyai Abu Bakr's Waste." Say Ajimukti later.

Again Khalil and Imam looked at each other and similarly gulped.

"What's wrong with our grandfather, Gus?" Ask the curious Imam.

Ajimukti looked at Khalil and Imam in turn, then smiled.

"I don't really know Sewba Kyai Abu Bakr. But I actually have heard a little bit about his wisdom during Sugeng first. So I don't think Kang Khalil and Kang Imam are worthy of being called 'Gus'?" Ajimukti said, still staring at Khalil and Imam.

Khalil and Imam were struck by what he heard from Ajimukti this time.

"Mboten, Mus. We don't deserve that call." The Imam's words sounded heavy.

Ajimukti frowned and still looked at the two.

"Why? Isn't this his grandson, Sewba Kyai Abu Bakr? Still Dzuriyah him." Ask Ajimukti afterwards.

The priest looks to breathe.

"In short it's like this thing of ours, Gus." Said later.

"I mean, Kang?" Ask Ajimukti still does not understand.

"I and Khalil are cousins, because Khalil is the son of my uncle, his brother my father. So according to the family, I am the elder, even though we are old. But as for ability, I lost to Khalil, Gus." Said the Imam then with still slightly lowered his head.

Although the Imam has been described as such, Ajimukti still does not understand the purpose of the Imam's explanation.

"Emmm, sorry Kang Imam. Can Kang Imam be clear again! Because honestly I don't really understand." Ajimukti said frankly about his incomprehension.

"That's just a picture, Gus. And the reason why in the end our uncle, Mr. Lek Latif who continues pesantren grandfather. Not Pakdhe Raharja his father Imam or my father, Gus" Khalil added the Imam's explanation to Ajimukti.

Ajimukti nodded lightly. It seems that he began to understand a little the meaning of the image of the Imam before, after hearing Khalil's explanation.

"So we are very inappropriate if we have to be called 'Gus'. I thought so, Gus." Imbuh Khalil later.

Ajimukti smiled, then patted Khalil on the shoulder.

Seriate...
