The Dusk Boundary
Eps. 04 (meet grandma)

"Raya.cucuku" Sari's grandmother smiled at Raya and Lily. Manda was sleeping in the car.

"grandmother..Kingdom kangen!" She ran to hug her grandmother.

"Grandma's so cold?" Raya made sure that his grandmother's condition might be unhealthy.

"Grandma doesn't match the night air outside." Sari's grandmother put the blanket over her.

"Let's go in, Grandma.." Raya brought Grandma Sari into the house.

Lily, who wakes Manda up but doesn't want to get up, finally lets her sleepy friend stay in the car. Lily entered the house only carrying her bag and also the Kingdom's.

"You're not awake?" tanya Raya's. Lily just shrugged her shoulders.

"How are you guys?" ask grandma Sari.

"We're all good Grandma, oh yeah papa and mama are sorry for not being able to visit here. They are busy!" raya Clear.

"Your parents don't care about grandma. Not even visiting grandma would!" granny Sari told her story in the past.

About how Raya got to the city.

Raya and Lily listened carefully. Raya was a little girl, so I don't know what happened. The last time Raya remembered, her grandmother took Raya to a rubber garden and Raya ran around there while her grandmother collected rubber sap.

The Kingdom was also lulled with memories of the past, although not too many memories in his memory because the Kingdom was still very small at that time.

"You rest! it was very late." grandma Sari returned to her room, letting her granddaughter search her own room.

"There's food at the dinner table, if you haven't eaten!" continued grandma Sari.

"Thank you, Grandma." replied Raya and Lily together. They occupy the front room whose windows face the front yard.

"It's safe here, there's no noise" Lily said.

"The name is also a village, and far from the city. Of course it's still beautiful. Tomorrow I will show you a beautiful place in the village. You must like it." said Raya.

"Do you know of any beautiful places here?" lily was not sure.

"We can ask people around. As I recall there was a natural river here. You brought a camera, right?"

"I've prepared"

Raya and Lily threw her body on the bed. Turns out this room is very clean. Grandma Sari was old, it was impossible to clean a house this big by herself. He tried to close his eyes. But he just remembered if he hadn't called his parents.

Raya also pulled out her phone which turned out to be in silent mode. There were many phone calls from both parents. Go to the terrace to call her mother.

"Assalamualaikum ma'am.."

"Wa alaikumsalam Raya.mama call from earlier!"

Raya and her mother had a serious chat on the phone. Raya tells of her journey to her grandmother's village. Mama Rossi was very worried about Raya. But after hearing Raya's voice, Mama Rossi was sure that her daughter was okay.

"Don't forget to pray dear..Whatever happens, do not forget to pray. And multiply istighfar." mama Rossi's message.

"Yes my mother."Reported Raya.

Suddenly their phone line was cut off. She kept calling her mother. While away there, Rossy's mom also called her daughter. Mama Rossi tried to call Raya back but couldn't.

"Call who cu.." suddenly Sari's grandmother was already at the door startling Raya.

"Eh.grandma just makes you shocked! I called my mom to tell me. Suddenly dead ", replied Raya.

"The name is also in the village, the signal broke up. Comein! it's not good for girls outside at this hour." invite grandma Sari.

"Yes grandma!" She followed her grandmother inside.

Tonight Raya slept well next to Lily. Grandma Sari approached him and gently stroked his grandson's hair. Maybe Sari's grandmother was very upset with him.

Manda was shocked when she woke up in the car. There's no Raya and Lily there. Manda spread her gaze looking for her friend. He smiled cheerfully as he saw Raya and Lily on the porch of the house in front of him. Manda approached them immediately.

"Kok y'all left me anyway?" ask Manda pouty.

"Who doesn't want to be built?" Lily hit Manda's shoulder.

"Don't fight, take a quick shower back there. We want to walk, don't we?" ask Manda.

"Wait by.." Manda returned to the car to get her bag and rushed into the house.

"Where were you sleeping last night?" ask Manda back outside.

"Front room, bathroom on the left back!" reply Raya while playing her phone.

"Where are your grandmothers? morning is out of sight! oh yes.this is electricity, why last night only petromax lights were on. My phone's lowbat again." asked Lily.

"Grandmother prefers petromax lights so the electricity is not so used" replied Raya.

Lily went back to the room to charge her phone.

"It was cold water." said Manda straight into the room.

"You're just in shock!" snapped Lily.

That morning, it was a little afternoon anyway.The three of them walked around the village. Because at home there is no food, they also took the initiative to find food stalls. Long time they walk not to meet any food stalls that exist.

Lily ventured to ask the passers-by about the food stall. Instead of answering, they just looked at Lily in surprise.

"Am I too pretty, until they see me like that?" Lily asked her two friends with her PeDe. Raya and Manda laughed gigglingly. Lily was pouting too.

"They were amazed by this beautiful princess. Your clothes are too sexy, you know?" reply Raya approved by Manda with a nod of her head.

Not getting an answer from the citizens passing by, they continued their journey. Until the end he found a food stall that seemed very crowded. But it turns out they just queue to wrap their food to take home.

"Sir.eat three equal warm teas three!" order Raya to the shop keeper.

" Yes, mbak.."Answer the pregnant shopkeeper.

" It turns out this place is still cool and fresh huh? so feel good about gini!" manda inhaled the air deeply. The fresh air he had never encountered in the city he lived in.

"Yes, I don't think there's a beautiful place like this." Lily confirmed the word Manda.

"Please.this is the food and drink!" the shopkeeper named Nina gave an order Raya and her two friends.

"Thank you." answered the three of them.

"Are you from town?I've never seen you guys before?" ask Nina.

" Yes.we're on school holidays! last night just got here!" answer Lily.

They looked in wonder at the visitor who held the baby and ordered the porridge, then looked again at Nina.

"It looks like you're still the same age as us?" ask Lily astonished.

"This fifteen-year-old girl has to get married!" answer Nina.

"What?" the three of them shouted in shock to make the visitors there look towards them. They also shut up.

"Where do you live?" ask Nina.

"We're staying at her grandmother's house down there!" lily pointed at Raya and pointed at her grandmother's house.

"I'm Grandma Sari's granddaughter. You know him, right?" tanya Raya's. Nina was very shocked and went straight inside without asking any more.

"Why him?"
