CUTS
Densus 88's...

Rendra went out with his wife and Anugrah shortly after Iskandar left. “Sorry about the grandmother's remark to you yes!” pinta Rendra was driving.

“Granny's words are true. Papa no need to apologize.”

Rendra just sighed rough. Iskandar's return should be a place to strengthen their relationship but jutsru otherwise. In the days that followed, Iskandar spent more time with his friends who were also on vacation to welcome the new school year. His childhood bike has been sold but it doesn't undo his intention to meet his game mates.

The first house he came to on foot was the house in front of his house. After that, they went back to his other friend's house. Iskandar pedaling his friend's bike. They go from one house to another. After that, they compactly gathered in the complex park where they used to spend time.

“Is, I guess you're happy to stay in the cottage huh? You never go home even if you have a long holiday. Did you deliberately not come home so as not to meet Anugrah?” ask one of my friends.

“Many activities in the cottage and I was also lazy to go home. My friends there also did not go home.”

They asked many things about life in the cottage on Iskandar. And with pleasure, Iskandar recounted his various activities during his santri there.

“I think living in the cottage is creepy. If you know like this, I also want to enter the cottage. Instead of staying at home and dealing with my brother even when my play is caught because I have to accompany him to play when my mother is not around. Upset right?” confide in one of Iskandar's friends.

“Sama, every day my mom repets because my sister likes to mess things up. Imperhaps, I must always clean up his actions. You believe, at that time it felt like I wanted to pull her cheek up red. If I'm not afraid of my mother. I've been doing.”

“From all of us, only Adit gets along with his sister. In fact, he also invited his sister to play here with us.” Woe to a friend back.

“Your sister is good, huh?” ask Iskandar.

“His sister is very good like Adit. If you sit down, just sit there is not much behavior like our brothers. If you ask for anything also does not maksa.” Obviously another friend.

While the object can only give the most beautiful smile. “My sister did. Maybe because my Mama and Papa are not chatty so she is not chatty either.” Tukas Adit's.

“Si Adit will be back again tuh.” Continue a friend.

Iskandar who knew nothing revealed a moment of astonishment. “Really?” tanyanya. Adit nodded slowly then returned to the starting mode.

“Then your relationship with Anugrah how, Is?” ask another friend.

Iskandar's friends numbered about 10 children who were the same age as them. During this time, the children of the complex never get along with other children because the residents of the complex are all members of the TNI. So, they have been accustomed to making friends even long ago when they are still in the womb. Only Iskandar was different because of his presence at the complex when he was a toddler.

"Because we don't live together so yeah not as close as Adit and his sister.” Answer Iskandar.

“You never talk or stories like that?”

Iskandar shook his head, “What are your parents doing? They didn't ask why you didn't talk to Anugrah or tell Anugrah to talk to you?”

Iskandar nodded back. They already knew about Iskandar's relationship with his sister which was like a cold war.

“Until when will you hate it, Is? He's your brother too. He was born of the same mother only your father is different.” Adit in wise fashion follows his mother.

“I no longer hate him, Dit. I just don't know what to say to him and he's busy with his own business. I also didn't expect him to greet me first. Just like this, Dit. Me and him can be comfortable without having to be forced to do it.”

“You're right, Is. Moreover, you guys never lived together. He or you must be awkward, right?” ask another friend.

All of Iskandar's friends were shocked to look at him. “I want to continue school to Yemen scholarship path.”

“What??” they were compactly surprised and it made Iskandar chuckle a little.

Friends of the complex is no less exciting with the friends of till jannah from the cottage. Those who used to be the place to tell stories when they were in elementary school.

“Weisss, steady tenan our friend this one. Go home to kiyai. We will have a friend from Kiyai. And we will all get free sermons without having to go to the mosque.” A friend who made them laugh together.

“Yemen is abroad right? Isn't that the place of the rebel society that often kills Caucasians?” ask one of my friends.

Those who had been chuckling had now turned into serious mode. “You won't join the organization, Is? I'm not ready to see you arrested densus 88.”

“Hussss, don't tell me anything. Om Rendra will not allow Iskandar to leave if he knows he will come.” As long as one friend.

“Indeed, are you sure that Iskandar has no intention of joining there? Anyway, Is. If you join together they continue to come back here and not teach you. I won't consider you a friend anymore. And I'll be the first to report to the police.”

Iskandar chuckles, “Lettle sodara-sodara, don't be instigated by a million hoaxes! My school there is official and has nothing to do with that group. You guys take it easy.”

“Keep you when to come back here?”

“God willing, I don't go home.”

“What??” they came back surprised.

“True I said that he would definitely defect. He will learn how to assemble bombs and weapons and join the group. My father said a lot of young people are affected by their teachings until they are ready to commit suicide bombings in the name of martyrdom.” Adit.

“Hahhh?”

Iskandar sighed. “I didn't come home because I would go straight to Cairo. To save costs, I chose to leave from there and schools in Yemen have often facilitated the departure of students from Indonesia who will continue their schooling to Cairo.”

“Ooooo.”

“Enak about your life, Ren. High School course abroad continue to study also abroad even further. We are only Junior High School and High School here and there. Every day we would pass through the same streets and alleys. While you've been adventuring far abroad.”

“Om Rendra has a lot more money. You must be happy because your father wants to spend a lot of money on your school.

“I don't use Papa's money. School fees are borne by the government and for pocket money, I get a deposit every month from my grandparents in Aceh.”

“On your father's family, aren't you planning on looking for him?”
