"Waalaikumsalam," said from inside the room which was none other than Mr. Kyai. The old man said again, "Come in!" he invited those who had said their greetings.

"Pak kyai," said the santriwan with his right hand seen directly grabbing the hand of Pak Kyai then immediately kissed him.
"What's up, son?" ask Mr. kyai.
"Sorry, Mr. kyai. There is a man who is middle-aged and accompanied by one ugly man, wants to see Pak Kyai. Is Pak kyai willing to meet him?" santriwan asked respectfully.
Hearing that, Pak Kyai immediately bent his eyebrows, feeling astonished by his polite speech that seemed to insult one of the guests who would meet him.
"Son, watch your words. Don't even say that. Your words just now are the same as you insulting a creature created by God. The good or bad physical person, who has the right to judge it is only the creator. We, as creatures of his creation, have no right to say that" said Pak Kyai.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Kyai. My mouth involuntarily uttered that bad thing," said santriwan with guilt.
"Don't you apologize to me, you apologize to God by saying the word istighfar, and don't you repeat it once again" said Kyai.
"Astaghfirullahalazim.. astaghfirullahalazim..astaghfirullahalazim," said santri, holding his hands and head up, begging for forgiveness for his wrong words.
"May God forgive all your sins. Now you go, and bring in the guest politely" Pak Kyai asked.
"Amen. Okay, Mr. kyai," replied the santriwan. Then passed, to bring Pak kyai's guests in.
"Please, Sir. You have been allowed to meet him," said the santri, allowing the old man and Royco to enter.
And with courtesy, the courtier immediately led in the old man and Royco also met Pak Kyai the owner of the boarding school.
"Assalamualaikum," said the old man to Mr. Kyai as he stepped into the room.
"Waalaikumsalam," answered Pak Kyai who was immediately surprised, when he saw the person who said the greeting was one of his peers.
"Khusnadi...?" muttered Pak Kyai who called the old man by saying his name. And immediately went to his old friend, to hug the old man's body tightly.
"How are you? after a long time without seeing?" khusnadi asked while Pak Kyai was still tightly hugging his old body.
"God finally gives us the opportunity to meet again. I am still very healthy. What about yourself, Khus?" asked Mr. Kyai while releasing his embrace.
"healthy! Just like you," replied Khusnadi.
"Oh yeah, who's this guy, Khus?" ask Pak Kyai while glancing at Royco.
"Name, Royco. He was already I think like my own grandson," said the old man introduced. "Come, Roy. Give greetings to Mr. Kyai," continued the old man.
Politely, Royco immediately grabbed Pak Kyai's hand, then immediately kissed the back of the hand.
"I'm Royco, Mr. Kyai. Greetings," said Royco introduced himself.
"Son, why is your body like this?" asked Mr. Kyai when he saw Royco's ugly body.
"Sa-I'm cursed, Mr. Kyai. Because a big sin made me like this" Royco said. His eyes seemed sad to be emanating a regret, when he remembered the great sin he had committed.
"Ba-well, Mr. Kyai. I asked for his guidance, so that my life can be a better person again" said Royco.
Mr. Kyai looks disturbing accompanied by a smile, assuring Royco's words asking for guidance from him.
"Yusuf, this young man has a great desire to change himself for the better. With that, I deliberately brought this young man to your place and hoped that you could allow him to stay in this cottage, to get a lot of knowledge about the science of Religion," said the old man. So I ask permission from Kyai sir named Yusuf.
Not yet answered, Mr. Kyai walked slowly by holding a prayer beads, thinking hard to weigh the demand from Khusnadi.
"Sit down first," said Mr. Kyai dazzled the two with his hand pointing at the sofa.
Royco sat down, and so did the Old Man.
After sighing, Mr. Kyai also answered the request of his best friend.
"Well, I'll let you stay in this cottage, but... can you obey all the rules in this cottage?" asked Mr. Kyai to doubt Royco.
"Can Mr. Kyai, I can obey all the rules in this cottage. I promise Mr. Kyai, I will not violate any of the rules in this cottage." said Royco enthusiastically while convincing Pak Kyai.
"Well, now you can stay in this cottage. Learn really so that later, you can become a religious expert who can scent the good name of this boarding school" said Mr. Kyai put more hope in Royco.
"Amen. Thank you for Mr. Kyai's prayer." said Royco looks happy.
The old man immediately approached Royco while saying. "Roy, don't disappoint me. Make this old man proud, don't make this old man's sacrifice a waste."
"Old man, hiks..." Royco who immediately cried while hugging the body of the old man.
"It's Roy, don't cry. Don't you be a crybaby," said the old man while rubbing Royco's back gives fortitude to him.
Royco immediately released his embrace, before long he immediately wiped his tears of sadness while sobbing sobbing sob.
"Old man, thank you for all the kindness you have given me. If I hadn't met you, I don't know what this self would have been like." said Royco sobbing occasionally wiping his tears.
"It's Roy, don't overdo it like this, no good. Now take good care of yourself, Roy, follow all the important advice from your teacher. And learn with great fervor, lest I make a mistake that could ruin my name too because I am the one who assigned you here." Pinta old man.
"Min," called Mr. Kyai to one of his faithful santri standing in silence.
"I, Mr. Kyai," replied the santri named Amin.
"Please guide Royco, and put him in a room with you. Go now" said Mr. Kyai.
"Ba-well, Mr. Kyai," agrees Amin looks hesitant because he feels strange on Royco's body.
Because it is very difficult for Amin, can refute Pak Kyai's orders, despite the huge objection that must room with a royco that is ugly.
"Have it done, what can do this a grave commandment" Amin lamented in his heart.
"Let's Roy, I'll take you to the room" Amin asked Royco.
After saying goodbye to the old man and Mr. Kyai, Royco also passed following Amin's steps, with his face constantly bowed to the floor, and his eyes fell on him, because in between his steps always get a look of disdain and unfriendly from other students.
