The Four Emirs
Reyhan and Ayrton

Direndra decided to tell a story twice a week because he was afraid that the stock of stories obtained from Oma Rhea and Eyang Aisyah would run out of stock even though he was also searching the internet for Indonesian folklore and various countries.

Ayrton told Direndra that he would come in two weeks to prepare everything including some ready-made houses that fit the old but modern design.

Two Days Before Ayrton and Reyhan Arrive

Direndra was confused because his students were excited about Harry Potter. What makes it sad is, the existing Harry Potter books are shabby and many pages are missing.

"Is this all in the library?" tanya Direndra who saw the Harry Potter book The Philosopher's Stone is not clear shape while she has a soft cover edition and hard cover of the breech.

"Yes Abi's teacher." Direndra patted his eel.

"All of you, have you ever heard that the hamlet here is about to be moved?" Direndra began to execute his plan.

"Yes Teacher. Ummi said, we will be moved but we do not know so or not" said Annisa.

"If we were transferred, what would our school be?" ask the other students.

"If you were transferred to a better place and your school had a library, how would you?"

The ten disciples of Direndra were immediately excited.

"Is there Harry Potter?"

"There's a Japanese comic teacher?"

"Is there a story the teacher told you?"

Direndra is overwhelmed by many questions and indeed men always educate their students to appreciate books.

"Before gadgets, all knowledge is gained from books. The first paper was invented in China by Tsa'i Lun in 105M. And after that is history. In ancient Rome and Egypt, people wrote on stone boards or papyrus derived from aquatic plants that grew in the Nile valley." Direndra explained while telling a story.

"All knowledge is good from pre-history until now still written and used as a book. Teachers prefer to read books with paper books rather than through gadgets. First, the eyes are not easily spicy, second more economical both electricity and WiFi costs. Books are expensive to buy but with good storage, they can last a long time."

Raana who heard Direndra's explanation just smiled. Looking at the style of Direndra is not impossible the man is tech-savvy but still appreciates books and other old items.

"OK because today's Thursday the fairytale schedule, Guru Abi will tell you about Malin Kundang. This story was from West Sumatra Indonesia." Darendra pulled out an already ugly map and stuck it on the blackboard. "This is a map of Indonesia. We're here." The man pointed to Dubai and then to Indonesia. "West Sumatra is here."

Darendra sat down and began to tell me about Malin Kundang's son. Raana also sat in the classroom without having to ask permission to Direndra because she was very curious about the Direndra stories.

This Saturday all residents of Al Shiba hamlet gathered in the schoolyard belonging to Badawi as two Emirs from Al Jordan came to their hamlet. Ayrton with a white shirt and black jeans was present with Reyhan wearing a blue robe and a white turban.

Santuy ya Ayrton's

Oom Reyhan told Ay to come home

All the villagers stopped their activities today to hear the explanation of Al Jordan palace because Emir Al Azzam is not in a fit condition. They knew that the two palaces were merging for the Solar power project and were both about to move them all.

Reyhan saw his nephew sitting casually near the classroom building along with the children who were likely his students.

Accompanied by Fahd and several bodyguards, Reyhan then began to open the meeting and he then gave a picture of the location being built by the Al Azzam party.

The residents began to be affected to see how the layout of the hamlet is made as similar as possible to their current hamlets but closer to the water source.

"So, we were going to move you but we also know how you lived for so many decades with the same neighbors, a routine life, a routine life, if there is a change, everything will have to adapt again. Therefore, we provide land for you all without having to pay taxes. Enough of you living peacefully side by side as you do here."

"What about the children's school? There are about eighty children in school?" Raana seemed to stand asking questions. For him, school and science for children are important even though their hamlet is middle to lower but can send many students to the city.

Ayrton and Reyhan looked at the beautiful girl who asked then took a quick glance at Direndra. Ayrton's face is enough to show that you're not the only one chasing girls through kids. Emir Al Jordan's lips only smiled thinly while Direndra just melengos.

"Your name is miss?" ask Ayrton.

"Rana Lamira."

"Miss Lamira, about school, you don't have to worry because your elementary school still exists even better than this." Ayrton shows Raana's school blue print through a projector screen. "There are twelve rooms here. Kindergarten room, elementary school, teacher room and full library."

The children there were excited when they heard of the library because with the funds sober, Raana was a bit difficult to fill the stock of library books. Not infrequently the teachers there donate the books they have to fill the bookshelf there.

"Teacher Abi! There's a library!" exclaim students.

The residents began to be interested especially they saw moving to a better area especially the name Al Jordan is not the type of family who often break promises.

"That's it, if you'd like. Some representatives of you all come with us to the present location. It just so happens that we have prepared the bus for your transportation. How's it?" Reyhan offers a solution. "So you can look at yourself and assess how far we are in seriousness to keep you comfortable in a new place?"

The people started talking to each other. Ammar Badawi as an elder there also stood near Reyhan Al Jordan.

"My lord, is it true that the noble Al Azzam said that we were moved to a better place?"

"Sorry, sir..."

"Ammar Badawi, my lord Al Jordan."

"Mr Badawi..."

"Help my lord, don't call me that" said Ammar.

"Oh no lord Badawi, you are older than me and are not in the eyes of our God the same? I am the one who should respect you. As Mr. Al Azzam said, he wants to take you to a better place than this. And if you're curious, let's get to the location." Reyhan smiled.

"By master. I know that the Al Jordan and Al Azzam families are not liars now. And if it's appropriate, we'll move in as soon as everything's ready."

Reyhan and Ayrton smiled.
