Happy Reading

This morning, Al-Bidayyah pesantren is still quiet, because santri is still the holiday season. Breakfast this time in the gazebo behind the kitchen ndalem, Ning Bahiyyah with her brother deliberately chose at this place, considering Abah and Umi were out of town attending events.

"Ning!! makirne nopo's?"

He was slightly jolted when Gus Nawwaf's hand nudged his arm. Indeed, since returning from the great haul Yai Ibrahim a week ago, he can be said to be not okay. His mind was filled with a sense of distrust for Kang Akmal who was already part of the DS family. Seen in the eyes, it is close. But his heart was clearly strongly rejecting that fact.

Can he still hope?

Hopefully, one day can be with people who love him or more specifically - Kang Akmal. To be honest, it is hard to accept the fact that Kang Akmal is far away and as if he can never reach. But again, it's a matter of the heart. His heart firmly chose Kang Akmal as its king.

"Ning!! Apaghfirullah!!"

"Eh, Athaghfirullah, my pripun?" tanyanya while shaking her head expels her thoughts.

"Enten nopo seh? daydreaming ora slick." Gus Nawwaf looked at him gently. "Now's the nopo problem?"

He nodded weakly. "Mboten enten Mas."

"Piye Gus Salman?" the sudden question made him so reminded when lately Gus Salman intensely sent a message, even though it was just a small talk or sometimes just a joke that he thought was not entertaining and even touched his heart.

Suppose ngechat, pay attention to him. Until it makes his heart a little shaky with kebaperan. But the ends of the sentence full of assertiveness are always spoken.

"Ngapunten Ning, too much. Kulo is aware of lek kulo niku sanes sinten e njenengan."

Okay, this is the definition of when held in high esteem and then thrown away. It's linu-linu! Linu linu body heart.

See, Gus Salman did not point to receive his sermons or to clarify his status. But the treatment of Gus Salman that makes him increasingly do not know what to say anymore.

Some time ago, whether intentionally or not. He introduced her to his brothers through a video call. At first, he did not want to take the call. But Gus Salman forced him a little bit, and eventually the call took place. To his surprise, it was not the face of Gus Salman but a cute little girl and it turned out to be his nephew. Gus Salman said at that time mumpung all the families again gathered, all the introduction.

Not willing to lie, to be honest there is a sense of pleasure infiltrated in his heart. Remind me, infiltrate, huh? not in the camp.

"Ang Kang Akmal?" He looked up, looking at his brother. He can't answer yes or no.

"Although Kang Akmal is a karo Mas. Mas sometimes understand the attitude of e, angel in guessing. Mas agree ae, Ning karo sopo. But that doesn't mean, Ning's covering up." He listened carefully to her brother's words.

"Atine Ning, zinc chose Mas." she asked.

"Sak iki Mas tangklet, answer isikharah e Ning piye?" He shook his head weakly, for during his istikharah he had not found the answer.

"Bukane Mas ngelarang Nduk, stagnate seneng ndek Kang Akmal. But Nduk saget ningali, Kang Akmal sak niki wes kaleh Ning Khafa. Until when is Ning stuck? Probably, because of Gus Salman's sob, saget damel tombo."

Oh God, how should it be?

********************

Today the plan is to stay at Abah and Mother's house, together except for Dek Khaliq. The distance is about two hours, making rarely visit there. This time all of you attended haul akbar in Abi and Bunda pesantren first.

"Mas, Yai Zaki nopo mboten as lek sampeyan puterane Abi?"

The corner of his eyes glanced at Abi who was beside his wheel. "Mboten Bi's. La emange and nopo Bi?" Ask a little bit of a doubt. Don't-don't Abi've unpacked all.

"Own pantes ae, ngirone Mas mantune Abi."

"Keep the Bi pripun?" abi's answer was not quite what he wanted. "Let's go naked, right, cados really?"

"Well, how about Mase delik an ngunu tah?" Nduk Khafa behind.

"Kados njenengan Bi!!" chirps Mother who sits next to Nduk Khafa

"Abi mboten delik an Nda, cumak ben angsal Bunda ae" replied Abi nyleneh.

Has not received an answer from Abi, even now Abi again memgebucin to Mother. "Nduk, let's go. Kersane Abi kaleh Bunda dating maleh." he chanted.

"Ihh, mboten Mase, Nduke will ngawal Abi kaleh Bunda, kersane Nduke mboten gadah maleh sister. Enough Nduk Khafa seng most unyu-unyu dewe." seloroh Nduk Khafa with the pedunya

"Unyu-unyu koyok yuyu." timpaly with a laugh, Abi and Mommy also chuckled. In the upper rearview mirror, he could see Nduk Khafa had his lips pursed. For him to see the face of Nduk Khafa like that, a pleasure in itself. Sloganya, no day without njawil Nduk Khafa.

Kan's! later joking, he even forgot himself that Abi had not answered his question. "Bi, pripun? dados crios and Yai Zaki?"

"Nopo or Mase? kadose ajrih ngoten's? ajrih lek cem-cemane escaped to?" tanya Nduk Khafa is getting worse.

Mother's pounding, alarms danger signs. "Mboten lah, why wedi?" rebuttals

"Loh, loh. Leres cranky cem-ceman?"

Nduk Khafa's question immediately made him realize that he was wrong to say. Be present!! could be killed Abi. "Eh, uh. Nopo to Nduk?" kilah rush.

Now Abi cleared his throat, making him cranky. "Mas Muadz, wangsul keng gene Ibuk, can't you see?!" abi's voice of emphasis cannot be denied. It is difficult to swallow the saliva. The meaning of Abi is not a positive connotation for him, but vice versa. If Abi has not copy the meaning Abi will talk and in the test all night, then let him not sleepy coffee before fighting.

Instead of getting an answer from Abi ended up NGOPI.
