Cloudy clouds decorate the morning sky before noon, as breezy wind blows the leaves following the wind, the birds begin to return to their homes, so that their wings are not wet with rain that will soon wet the earth
In the boarding corridor, a woman in her doctor's clothes ran, from her face she was in a hurry to find something
"Assalamu'alaikum Gus" Nazwa stopped right at the end of the corridor when he saw someone just coming out of the classroom
"Wa'alaikumussalam Naz"
"Don't you see Haafiz?"
"Sorry? didn't you come home from eleven?"
"But not at home"
"But we saw you go home"
"Thank you then Gus, ana find again because it was a little rain" Nazwa lowered his head and said his greetings after that immediately rushed to find his eldest son
"Where else is the Haafiz?, when it has been told if you want to go away first with the house, instead of missing like gini, where else is the son of Allah" Nazwa looked to the right left of the place he was passing through hoping to see a tired person looking for him
"Ning Nazwa nyari Haafiz huh?" a boy about ten years old approached Nazwa who looked confused
"Na'am, you see?"
"So after returning home from school he went to the back, the direction of the pesantren if not wrong with Haikal"
"Well, thank you, Assalamu'alaikum"
"Wa'alaikumussalam"
No one was seen behind the pesantren, only the rows of rice were still green, Nazwa sharpened his vision when he saw something at the back gate of the pesantren, the, he approached and his guess was that Hafidz was specially ordered by Nazwa when his son memorized five juz
Nazwa again saw outside the gate, many rice fields lined up and houses of residents not far from there
"definitely blurred" he murmured slowly his confidence grew stronger when he saw a large enough hole in the wall that began to brittle inedible age, the hole was deliberately covered with leaves so that no one noticed
"Sorry why you even follow the nature of the mother, why not the attitude of your father who is polite that you follow" he said muttering as he squatted away the leaves and entered through the gap without caring about the white clothes of his doctor attached to the leaves
Rain spots began to fall, coinciding with Nazwa hearing a faint sound from the direction of the river behind the banana garden of one of the residents there after walking quite far from the ponpes
Nazwa clucked at the sight before his eyes, Haafiz was fishing in the river with his classmate, Haikal
Haafiz was still unaware of the arrival of his mother who was ready to rampage, he was engrossed in reaching under the rocks with one hand holding a basket that was seen starting to break out of nowhere
"Fiz, behind the rain" Haikal raised his head when he felt the rain start to fall
"Awhile ago, there was a big fish here" said Haafiz still with his activities
"Anta afraid of being sought after by people at home?"
"At home there is no one, Nafisa must be at the grandparents' house" he said calling the brother who is one year old below him
"Dad went to study in the next village, if the mother was still in the hospital at most" he said casually
"Ekhem, there's a lot of fish?"
"Yes here fish a lot" Haafiz replied without realizing that the person who spoke was his mother, while Haikal was surprised and immediately smiled clumsily at Nazwa
"You're ponpes' kids, huh?" Nazwa still asked as if he was a stranger who happened to pass by
"Yes, ponpes Nurul Hikmah"
"Why here? you're not afraid I am going to the ponpes teachers?"
Hearing that, Haafiz turned around
"BUNDA" Pekiknya surprised when he saw Nazwa standing on one of the rocks on the edge of the river
"Hurry home, do not be silent like a statue of it" Haafiz realized and immediately headed to the river
Nazwa ruffled his waist to see their appearance, pants that were raised to the knee but still wet, white clothes that were dirty due to mud and hands that held small fish wrapped in crackles their catch
"ck ck ck, if you don't come here until when are you there? Huh uh?!"
"Until you're swept away by the currents?"
"Mother does not say that if you recede, see the rain starts to fall, we do not know if suddenly from the front there is a big flood?"
"Afwan" said the two of them lowered their heads
"If the apology is a promise never to be repeated again, not an apology today but still repeated tomorrow" Nazwa said
"We promise we won't repeat" they said lowered their heads
"Why did you guys get that far?" Nazwa asked seriously, because the two of them had never been there let alone Haikal who lived in the city
"We are curious mother, said Alif caught fish in the river was very exciting" Nazwa sighed rough, high curiosity sometimes has a bad impact
Jderr
The sound of thunder boomed, making the two children startled and hugging Nazwa's feet tightly, coinciding with it the rain was getting heavier and the wind started blowing fiercely
Nazwa looked at the clock that was coiled around his wrist, still eleven o'clock had not entered dzuhur time
"Fearful"
Nazwa squatted to equalize their height and stroked their already wet heads
"Fear only of Allah, if it rains or lightning it does not forget the do'a, because everything that happens is because of the will of God" Nazwa's voice was carried away by the swift rain, making them both nod not listen too much
π·π·π·π·π·
Gus Fatih paced back and forth in the living room, he chose to go home to his abi when he did not see anyone in the house, though there are usually two children who are playing there or Nazwa when on leave
"Nafisa, where's Haafiz?" Gus Fatih asked the beautiful five-year-old girl who focused on her drawing book and her color pencil
"Not yet home sought after mother"
"Mother's home yet?" His father's question was answered nod by Nafisa
"She said she went to look for Haafiz"
"Oh Allah, the boy" Gus Fatih rubbed his face rough, not to mention what the firstborn made
βββββ
On the way back to the ponpes, Nazwa unceasingly warned the two boys not to go out like that, he even brought up the incident a few days or even years ago
Nazwa could only be annoyed by himself let alone see his appearance now, there was no longer an authoritative doctor's face, now the doctor's suit was even covered in mud from falling on a slippery road while the two children were just laughing enjoying the rain
"Astahfirullohaladzim Nazwa" a voice made Nazwa raise his head looking forward
"Nadifa?" Nazwa saw his friend standing in front of the ponpes gate as if waiting for someone
"Why do you still play like this? ning Ponpes still playing raining? what does the world say?" nadifa said with dramatic movements
"Heh, who's playing? ana nyari these two bad boys, fortunately not washed away in the river"
"ohh kirain anti-play" Nadifa closed her mouth as if holding back a laugh made Nazwa snort angrily
"So how?"
"What's the matter?" Nazwa was confused to see his best friend who suddenly asked like that
"Anti become self-indulgent?"
"Yes, ana wants to focus on the family first, children are also young need supervision, ana there is a plan also want to make their own clinic"
"It feels better that way too, if in the hospital there is rarely a holiday" Nadifa said making Nazwa nod in agreement
