Islam Learning Fasting
26. Tomorrow Fasting

"Madeeeeeee!!!" abirama shouted while the silence made Islam and Ali let go of his laughter.

The prayer has been completed ending with the salutation. Everyone turned to look at Islam who was now silent with his flat face as if nothing had happened while on the one hand Ali was still laughing giggling like a madman.

"Hust!" christians rebuked Ali to stop laughing immediately.

Islam is only able to shake his head though occasionally he closes his lips trying to hold back laughter. Islam turned to look at Abah Habib who looked at him seriously and then breathed a long breath.

Islam took a breath and shifted his eyes as if he did not want to be stared at by Abah Habib and hundreds of santri, Islam knows what they all think.

A few minutes later Islam is now leaning against the wall of the mosque while staring at Abah Habib who is seen standing in the pulpit while saying some sentences that are somehow, Islam does not care about it.

"That strong dong!" whispered Abirama to Kristian who has since tidied up the sarong worn by Abirama.

Islam smiled, somehow Abirama's problem was never finished with the sheath.

"Din!" calling Ali to Sarifuddin who was so serious looking at Abah Habib, Sarifuddin quickly turned to look at Ali who was seen holding his stomach.

"What's wrong?"

"When do you eat? Leper me," he said with a clear face.

"Later eight" he whispered.

"It's eight o'clock" he replied in annoyance but received no response from Sarifuddin who was now sitting on his back to Ali, Islam, Christianity and Abirama.

"Reverse yuk!" bring Ali.

"Hust!" reprimanding Kristian while putting his index finger in front of his lips told Ali to be quiet.

Ali clicked his lips lazily and then looked at Abah Habib who was still talking on the pulpit.

Not long ago suddenly everything clapped with a happy smile made Islam wrinkle his eyebrows do not understand. What's with all of them?

"Why Din?" tanya Islam who stared in wonder at Sarifuddin who was rubbing his face while saying a word of gratitude.

"Why the hell?" islam asked when Sarifuddin looked at him.

"Tomorrow the fast of Ramadan" he replied with a happy face.

Islam breathed a long sigh, the moon obliging men not to eat and drink it again. Islam does not understand why Sarifuddin is so very happy, it is no different from the santri who now look happy smiling.

The santri now scatter out of the mosque regularly while Islam is now seen standing while leaning his body against the wall staring at all the santri who came out, Islam is not interested in jostling out of the pesantren decided to wait for the santri out first.

"Let's eat!" invite Ali who is now stepping up to make Islam immediately go hand in hand with Sarifuddin, Kristian, Abirama and Ali.

"Islam!" call someone to make Islam stop its steps and turn to find Abah Habib, Akbar, Akbir, Firdaus Rahman and Shuaib who stepped toward Islam.

Islam sighed lazily, for some reason they all always approached him simultaneously.

"What else? Want to talk about Kristian and Abirama who shouted during prayer?" ask Islam with his lazy tone.

"Change want to talk to Islam" he said with a smile.

"By what? That's a big whip by the way!"

"Polite talk!" akbar said with a firm tone to make Islam smile cynically.

Sarifuddin was only able to be silent, he occasionally turned to look at Akbar and Islam with a look of fear. It seems like they both have personal problems.

"There's no time!" islam then stepped back to make Sarifuddin, Kristian and Ali stepped away.

Abirama who walked a few steps back ran towards Abah Habib making Abah Habib smile at the smiling Abirama.

"Akbar has eliminated Abah when Islam will never change."

"Ana disagrees," Akbir said, to Akbar's surprise, again and again Akbir defended his son.

"Why does Antum believe in Islam so much? Didn't you see for yourself what Islam and its friends have done?"

"But-"

"What's? Clearly those friends of Islam were shouting while we were all praying Isya, he was shouting twice and giggling like a fool"

"Enough!" abah Habib said that made Akbar rant cut off.

"No need to extend!" the peech.

Hearing that voice Firdaus and Rahman now walked away feeling uneasy, this was their family matter, it was not good for him if they were there and heard everything.

Now in the remaining mosques Abah Habib, Akbar, Akbir and Syuaib. The atmosphere was now silent and silent, no one among them spoke anymore.

"Change, Ana permission to convey something," said Akbar.

"Say!"

"This is ana's advice, Abah. Perhaps Islam and his three female friends should be sent home"

"Ana disagrees Abah!" akbir said quickly.

"Don't cut!" pinta Abah Habib who raised his right hand made Akbir now bowed with a look of restless face.

"Continue!" the peech.

"This concerns the comfort of the boarding school, the students will feel uncomfortable with the presence of Islam and three friends of his goons in the cottage. Islam has made mistakes several times, the first Islam has spoken disrespectfully to Abah in front of many people, the second Islam sleeps in the mosque, the first Islam has spoken disrespectfully to Abah in front of many people, the third Islam made a mess in the bath and what just happened was his friends were shouting during prayer, is this good?" his chattering made Abah Habib speechless with his flat face.

Akbar breathed a long breath, "Im sorry ana, Abah should think carefully about what ana said. Assalamualaikum," he said then he left.

Akbir now turned to look at Abah Habib who was seen staring at the departure of Akbar who was far enough.

"Speak! Before Akbar's speech penetrated Abah's mind," Abah Habib's request made Akbir smile.

Rooms

Islam laid his body on the bed, and his gaze stared at the ceiling of the lower surface of the bed occupied by Christianity. Islam is now very confused as to why the veiled girl did not show up at dinner time. Sarifuddin said the black veiled girl would appear to pour kale vegetables but why the girl was also seen until Islam had to come out last only to wait for the girl who never showed up.

"Din!" call Islam makes Sarifuddin who is reading the Qur'an immediately turned his head

"Why?"

Islam was silent for a moment, he turned his head to look at his three friends, Christian, Abirama and Ali who had fallen asleep, well it seems they are so tired today.

"Em, how come the girl who wears the veil doesn't look like it anymore?" ask Islam with a curious look on his face.

"We didn't see kale on the table?" ask Sarifuddin.

Islam was silent for a moment and then he shook his head, as he remembered there were no kale on the dining table.

"Well that's the answer. If there's no kale it means he doesn't exist either."

Islam who heard it wanted to talk again but suddenly the lights went off which signified the time to sleep. Islam looked back at the darkness of Sariffudin who is now seen closing his Qur'an and lying down his body to make the atmosphere become silent.

"Have you slept?" ask Islam.

"Sleep fast! Tomorrow's fasting!" he made Islam breathe.
