"You want to borrow a friend? What would you buy? If you want to buy, there is still time. Today is still free. Tomorrow has started the orientation, definitely can not go out again. If you want to buy, in the north there is a fairly complete clothing store." Linda gave Nirmala a suggestion.
"okay, Sis. I'll think about it again." Nirmala chose to think for herself, rather than prolong the course of Linda's announcement.
"OK, we can still go out, until later adzan maghrib. So, if you want to buy, please, before adzan maghrib." Linda reminded Nirmala.
"Ready, Brother." Nirmala nodded.
"Okay, go on, yeah. Tomorrow we have the show together, yes. Santri son and daughter. Although the show is not together, we are one place. So, please take care of his attitude, yes! Don't be ashamed of your own image, because it's just as gentle as santri putra." Linda reminded her friends, usually a joint event is often used as an opportunity to steal opportunities with santri putra.
"OK, Brother!" All answer compact. They smile, they've been exposed to the habits they do every time there is a joint event.
"Okay, that's the announcement. It's all breakfast, right?" Linda looked at the pile of rice boxes that had been on the table, no longer there.
"Udah, Brother!"
"Yes already, before starting school, we will still use boxed rice. Because we're eating a message from outside the cottage. But after school, the mothers are cooking again, we eat one tray for one room. So please, eat together, if it's time to eat, then eat first. Don't make our friend wait. It's kasian, it's lax." Linda warns about eating.
Nirmala bengong's. "So gini, how to malan a cottage boy? One tray for 6 people? What enough? Ow hell! Could go down, my weight." Nirmala. He was worried that he could not eat according to his portion while at home.
"Ready, Brother!" Others answered compactly.
"Oh yeah, except for lunch. Please take the sauur first, eat with a plate papa. Because we didn't go home together. Importantly, his friend's vegetable rations and side dishes should not be eaten either." Linda gave an extra.
"OK, Brother!" Nirmala nodded. It turns out that the cottage is really amazing. Even just eating has rules.

After changing beds, Nirmala recorded the number of HP Dimas, then found one of Ustadzah who became a companion santri princess. He chose to contact Dimas, because it was impossible to ask for money from his mother who also had trouble getting money from his father.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Ust." Nirmala had to get used to saying greetings when meeting other people, a very rare thing she did at this time.
"Wa'alaikumussalam warohmatullah, what's wrong?"
"I want to borrow HP, Ust. I would like to say with my sister, if you need long-sleeved sportswear for tomorrow's outbound. You see I only have short sports clothes all." Nirmala explained what she wanted.
The companion Ustadzah looks at Nirmala's style of dress that is indeed like a boy. It's only right that he said so. While in the dormitory, the students are still allowed to wear free clothing as long as polite while upstairs, namely the room and bathroom complex. But when going down to class or mosque, then all must wear full clothes, including skirts and hijabs.
"Oh, yeah, just a second!" The companion Ustadzah takes HP from inside the companion's special room. Nirmala stood up, waiting quietly.
"Okay, Ust." Nirmala nodded.
He immediately typed in a short message and sent it to Dimas.
[Sister, I'm Lala. I'm wearing the escort number. Please call immediately, important!]
Nirmala waited long enough, there was no reply, or a call came in from Dimas.
"Udah yet?" Ustadzah asked Nirmala, who was visibly riled up, waiting for an answer from Dimas.
"Yet, Ust. There's no reply yet. It is very difficult to use HP this, so it does not look, the message has been read what has not." Nirmala complains.
"Prophey, if not left out first. Later if there is a reply, Ustadzah kabari. His name, the guardian of whom. Let us easily grind you, if there's a reply." Ustadzah companion gave input to Nirmala.
"Now ah, Ust. I'll just wait here. Anyway, I don't want anything, really." Nirmala refused subtly.
"Yes, that's it."
Shortly thereafter, a call came in from Dimas. Nirmala is happy not to play. Just yesterday they parted ways, but now he's back to missing his foster brother.
"Hello, Brother! How long is the phone? I'm tired of waiting, you know!" Nirmala greeted first, although it was immediately continued with a scolding.
"Sorry, La. I have no ordinary pulse. So have to fill the pulse first, what's up?" Dimas answered from across the line.
"Oh, that. Yes, Brother. You see from here only provided old-school HP only. So can't create an application that uses internet quota." Nirmala complained to Dimas.
"Yaudah, no papa. What are you gonna say? He said something important?" Dimas again asked, from earlier the question has not been answered by Nirmala.
"This, Brother. You can come home from work here, right? I have an outbound tomorrow, I have to wear long sportswear. I don't have one, Brother. You know yourself, right? All my sportswear is short?" Nirmala said what was the problem.
"It should be late afternoon, huh?" Dimas asked to make sure.
"Yes, Brother. Only today is free. Tomorrow is full of activities. I can't go out anymore. Today it can still be, but the maximum is only until before Maghrib. Adhan maghrib has to enter the dormitory gate. If not, you can't get in. It's locked, anyway." Nirmala explained further.
"Oh, how is it. I'll be home by 5, La! The journey there takes about 20 minutes. That's if the road goes well. You know it yourself, right? In the afternoon, the streets will be jammed. Time to go home from work. So it's gonna take a little longer. Not later to pick you up, not later to the store, not yet choose it. It seems time until Maghrib will not be enough." Dimas explained at length, the point is that he could not come to see Nirmala.
"Well, I guess I'll be home by 4, brother. So there's still about two hours to see you. It turns out to be home at 5 o'clock, yes, if so. No, no papa, brother." Nirmala expressed her disappointment. Reality is not as good as hope. He thought that being in a cottage close to Dimas' workplace would make it easier to meet Dimas. But turns? Zero big!
