The Dusk Boundary
Eps. 34(back to town)

Papa Sigit was very surprised to hear the words of Kyai Arifin if his wife was no longer in the house of Agus. It turns out that my brother Arifin has asked for guidance from Allah SWT to find out the whereabouts of Mama Rossy. From the instructions obtained it turns out that Rossy's mother is already in a place far from the village.

When he arrived at Arifin's house, papa Sigit immediately asked Arifin's brother for an explanation about the whereabouts of Mama Rossy.

"So we thought you were going to tear apart Agus' house. So we're just an initiative to find out where your wife is. That way you do not need to confuse the entire house. Turns out your wife wasn't there, it seems like it's been since last night. Because now your wife is far away from this village!" kyai Arifin's brother.

"So you mean, Agus has moved my wife's whereabouts?" papa Sigit was increasingly worried about his wife's situation.

"It doesn't look like Agus brought your wife. According to my observation, your wife is already in a safe place!" replied brother Kyai Arifin who does not fully know where the safe place is.

"Did anyone save him?" kyai Arifin also asked.

"Possibly so!" kyai Arifin's brother.

Overnight...

After making sure that his two uncles had slept, Ali immediately did the action. He managed to free Rossy's mother from her uncle's pasungan.

Ali took Rossy's mother out of the village. Through the path he had been through, Ali guided Rossy's mother. Sometimes they rest because Rossy mama is not strong to walk far, sometimes Ali also holds Rossy mama to make it a little faster to arrive at the Kingdom that must have been waiting for them. Ali deliberately did not go through the main road because he did not want to be known by the people.

Meanwhile, Raya was already worried waiting for Ali. He was on standby in his car and was ready to run away in case something happened that he did not expect. But Raya was very worried about Ali and his mother.

"Oh Allah.Hopefully bang Ali managed to save mama. Protect them, O Allah!" Raya continued to pray for the creator to always protect his mother and also Ali who tried to save mama Rossy.

Shortly thereafter, Ali had reached the place he had promised with Raya. She immediately cried hugging her mother.

"Mama's fine, right?" Mama Rossi did not answer, her body was very weak. With the help of Ali, Raya took Rossy's mother into the car.

"Hurry and bring your mother back to town. You'll be safer there!" ali closed the car door.

"Bang Ali is coming? I can't possibly bring my own mama in this state? It's midnight anyway, I'm worried about the road!" Raya begged Ali to come with her. But Ali refused.

"I can't Ray, then my uncle suspects me! Go then! I'll make sure you're safe at home!" ali's reply convinced Raya. Raya is worried too.

But it's true too.. What would happen if Ali found out his uncle had saved Rossy's mom?

Not wanting anything to happen to Ali, Raya ends up taking her mother to the city alone. Maybe later after arriving home, Raya will call her papa. What matters is that they survived first. Hopefully both of Ali's uncles are unaware of Ali's current actions.

"Thank you Ali, I owe my life to bang Ali" Raya also left Ali and also her hometown. Ali smiled as she returned home after Raya ran her car. Ali must go home soon so that his two uncles do not suspect him.

🌸🌸🌸

Uncle Agus and uncle Bayu became astonished with papa Sigit who was angry spirit then became silent and arrived to leave his house. They both went back inside the house.

Ali came out of his room and shocked his two uncles. They looked surprised to see Ali just woke up, because not usually Ali woke up this afternoon.

"Yes uncle, I slept late last night. So can't get up early." Ali immediately went to the bathroom to clean up. Hopefully his uncle didn't expect a guess because of the delay he got up early.

Batin Ali's.

Ali told his uncle to go to the forest to catch a chicken. Today Ali wants to eat the jungle chicken, just think of it as a celebration because it has managed to help Raya find her mother. Ali is so happy today.

While in the middle of the road to the forest, Ali accidentally crossed paths with Kyai Arifin and the group who were going to go to Sari's grandmother's house. There was also papa Sigit. Looks like Kyai Arifin and his brothers want to escort papa Sigit to leave this village safely.

"Ali... Where are you going?" kyai Arifin saw Ali looking down.

"I want to go to the kyai forest, to catch a chicken!" ali replied, Shame on. Somehow Ali felt embarrassed if he met a lot of people. Kyai Arifin watched Ali closely. Kyai Arifin feels something in Ali.

"Is there anything you know about Sigit's wife?" ask Kyai Arifin directly. Ali looked left and right and behind him. I don't know what she's afraid of, which is for sure she doesn't want to mispronounce.

Ali whispered something to Kyai Arifin. Kyai Arifin smiled at Ali's confession.

"Yes already.go!" kyai Arifin patted Ali on the shoulder. Ali immediately said goodbye to everyone.

"Ali.." call Kyai Arifin again. Ali stopped and looked back.

"Yes kyai?" Ali looked down respectfully.

"Thank you..May Allah SWT always protect you!" Kyai Arifin smiled again. Ali smiled and left the place to go to the forest.

"What is kyai?" ask papa Sigit who felt there was something strange about Ali. Why did Kyai Arifin thank Ali? What did Ali know? papa Sigit asked inwardly.

"Let's talk at home!" Kyai Arifin invites papa Sigit and the others to continue the journey.

Arriving at Grandma Sari's house..

Papa Sigit immediately asked Manda and Lily to pack up. Because their clothes have been packed before, it does not take much time they immediately prepare.

"You go straight home, Git, your wife and your son are probably home by now!" kyai Arifin.

"What's? how come?" papa Sigit still does not believe what Kyai Arifin said.

"Tadi Ali said last night he had brought your wife whom his uncle had hidden at home. And your son took her to the city right then and there!"

"Alhamdulillah.." papa Sigit and all who heard him gave thanks, especially Manda and Lily who had been restless since then, fearing that the Kingdom would disappear again.

"Then we'll excuse you. Thanks Kyai.you are not so bad to me and my family. What happened to my mother was my fault. I am ready in the law of God because I have become an ungodly child" papa Sigit regretted for ignoring his mother for so long. Didn't even meet on his last day.

"Shuutts....Manda, I'm asking for your phone number. Later if I go to the city I'll play to your house!"
