Santri Pekok

"Ooh... If you may know, where are you from, where are you going? Maybe I can help," Andri still did not lower his politeness in asking.

"I am from the city of Gori Gori, from across the island, I want to migrate to Jakarta, but do not know where Jakarta is, I know, Jakarta is on the island of Java. After I arrived on the island of Java, I looked for a nearby city, to apply for a job, but I got a pickpocket. Then I got lost, and now I don't know what to do. I have nothing, no idea where to go, even to eat I do not know how to do it," Agus continued to talk, tell his story, until he reached this place.

"Yes already, die come with me to the dorm. I have some clothes to change. If you are also interested, we also provide a place to stay here, as long as you follow the activities in our pesantren" said Andri suggested.

Agus thought for a moment, he actually went wandering to find work, change fate, hoping to become a successful person later. But who would have thought it would end like this?

"How's mas?" ask again, because Agus is still pensive. "Udah just calm, even if Mas does not want to be santri here is okay, the important thing is to clean the body first, first, I'll take you to the nanny to ask for a permit to stay here for a while, before you can get a job and a place to stay,"

"Truly Mas?" agus asked, immediately excited. He needs a place to stay for now.

Andri just nodded while smiling towards the other person.

"alright. Sorry to bother you," said Agus, with happiness that can not be hidden from his face.

Such is life in the region, cruel and violent. Our people will not care about our shortcomings, if we do not have some capital. Living in the region if we do not have the ability, and can negotiate, communicate with others well, then the end of our lives will be a mere gem. Fortunately this time, Agus ended up in the pesantren, which certainly would not let people starve and become homeless.

Many people who want to go wandering, without knowing later there what work, work where, where to live how? Sometimes they just wander with determination and passion. Though life in the region is not as beautiful as your imagination in broad daylight. If we meet an honest person, and good as Agus, it is Alhamdulillah, but if behind what?

There have been many nomads who have had bad luck, and ended up being homeless. There are also women who wander to end up losing virginity, even becoming female workers the night. For that, if you want to go wandering, at least know clearly the place to go, and later there follow who, people kayak how? So that later it does not end with suffering and misery.

"It's bath soap, and the towels." Andri gave complete toiletries, such as bath soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, face wash soap, and towels, to Agus, after the two reached his room Andri.

"thank you," Agus did not hesitate, accept it.

Andri nodded with a smile, then showed me the location of the bathroom, at the end of the building.
