The Lost Of Ramadan
Thalib the Musafir Part 5

That afternoon was the fourth day of filial punishment on the elderly in the nursing home. Akira and the others came to the house of a grandmother who wanted to reveal something to Ayumi at that time, but it did not even happen when there was an elder messenger nearby.

“Why are you here?” ask grandma.

“Sorry Nek, actually yesterday we wanted to meet Grandma at the place of the old people, but said the person there Grandma did not work at that place so we found out where Grandma's house, Grandma's, and lucky today we just got here,” replied Chio.

Grandma looks confused. “So what do you want this sepetang to come to my house?”

“Sorry Nek we sepetang this come because still get a dutiful punishment, our arrival here wants to know about why the legend of Thalib the traveler is forbidden to tell,” replied Chio.

The grandmother was shocked. “Ke-why can you guys know that?”

Chio smiled. “so it's true that it's forbidden, that means the story is real.”

The grandmother was angry. “No you guys are wrong, quickly get out of here, don't bother me!,” reply want to close the door.

Suddenly Ayumi ran and held the door with her hands. “Our grandmother please tell us everything, because this is very important, we no longer know where to go, just Grandma our hope so that everything we know becomes clearer!” ayumi said, pleading.

The grandmother was again flabbergasted when she saw Ayumi who was wearing her red veil. “Why are you using this?” she said sadly as she stroked Ayumi's veil.

Ayumi was confused as to what to answer. “I taught him,” said Akira firmly from behind.

Grandma suddenly walked quickly towards Akira and even pulled Akira's ears until bowed as high as grandma. “From where do you know this hahh ..!”

“Aw aw aw .. geez! please let go first I will definitely tell you the origin of Grandma also told us about it,” he said while enduring pain.

The grandmother twists Akira's ear first and then takes it off until Akira shouts loudly.

“No need, you just go from here,” he replied as he walked towards the door of the house, while the others were astonished by the sight.

“Cih ..” Shiro looks upset, “Grandma please just tell us, later she will also teach him to Grandma, so that Grandma can also look beautiful like Ayumi,” continued Shiro trying to attract sympathy, so that Grandma can also look beautiful like Ayumi, but he sounded mocking.

The grandmother again walked towards Shiro and happened again as happened to Akira. “You think I can't hah ..!”

Seeing Akira and Shiro holding his ears in pain made Chio not dare to speak again, and even worse the grandmother stared intently at him.

“Quick you all enter my house I will tell you the truth!” said the grandmother as she entered the house.

Hearing those words they all cheered happily because what they thought was true, well of course Shiro would not do it.

They were all in my grandmother's house and sat facing her. “Why do you sit down, quickly make a drink there,” he said to Ayumi.

“How do I Nek?” tanyanya.

“You do not need to argue not you are capable, you should just obey if parents tell you what else if it is your husband,” he replied firmly.

“Hemm .. well Nek,” answered looking lazy while others laughed, of course different from Shiro he even smiled.

“You're the one whose name I estimate, to what extent have you known this story of Thalib?” ask their grandmothers in shock.

“How can Grandma know my name?” reply Akira.

“The old jacka grandfather you came to ask to tell the story of Thalib has told me.”

“Huh ... Thankfully,” said Akira and chio in unison, "Ehhh ... How can!" connect them again in unison.

"Jawab first my question, I'll tell you later" replied the grandmother.

“We all only know until the engineering story, so we please tell us why the story should be banned spread to the population.” replied Chio.

The grandmother looks angry. “ini is none other because our elders are now fools who do not want our country to be visited by outsiders who will bring new religions.”

They were all flabbergasted to hear the grandmother's words mentioning religion, including Ayumi who had just come and put down the drink she made.

“What does Grandma mean by a new religion?” ask Akira seriously.

“As we do now deified the statue or that Thalib said idolatry” Again Akira was made flabbergasted not to dwell on hearing grandmother's answer.

“Thalib's story that you call engineering is true, the previous elder deliberately made it to influence people who knew nothing about Thalib. Day after day passed and the story continued to spread to the residents so that they were all affected and even hated the story. People were starting to get uninterested again and the story began to lose its image, but one of the people who still remembers is one of these village ladshe was none other than the brave snicker who told you, he heard that from his own father and told it to his friend, he said, then his friend back to tell his father, gradually the story spread again and get his image back, but not only that story spread, which spread, one of the people had also retold the engineering story the elder had made. Then what happens next is that people are divided into two camps, some believe the story is real and some do not believe and do not like it. Therefore the only way to make them silenced is to prohibit it.” said grandmother told me.

“That means this story has been around for a long time?” said Akira.

“Yah ... This story has been a long time, that is since my parents just grew up,” he replied.

Hearing that made Chio choke while drinking the water that Ayumi made.

“It has been that long, it is fitting that people do not believe it is a real story,” he said as he swept his mouth.

“Then the story that we consider fake is actually the result of fabrication from real events,” he continued.

“I mean the Grandmother of the fake story is the story of Thalib who turned out to have succeeded in our village safely and it is not in accordance with the previous elder's creation?” cut Ayumi.

“Even very far the difference, which I know Thalib made it to our village without a map for only one ceremony,” replied the grandmother.

“Then Sabbat country is not too far from our country yakan Chio?” ask Akira.

“Negeri?” chio said astonished.

“A’ahh .. grandfather called it so it feels very fitting if we call the country because of the long distance and we do not even know where they are,” Akira replied.

“Again the country is not necessarily still there, what else is that long, if there will not be we can go there without a clue,” said grandma.

“Grandmother is right we do not have the slightest clue about the country, which we know only the life of its citizens first,” said Ayumi.

“I think we will get a clue, if Grandma can tell her story in detail about the trip of Thalib our kegegeri,” said Chio.

“Cih .. you think just by hearing that story we will know the way, which is true,” Shiro said cut.

“She was right despite knowing it wouldn't change anything that we couldn't possibly go there anything else I don't know for sure how the story is,”.

“Then does Grandma know who can tell her?” ask Akira.

The grandmother looked doubtful but suddenly became serious. “You all meet Osama and urge him to tell you, especially you Akira! tell him the truth, make him believe and hope for you! that's the only way he'll tell you that, because only he can tell you who Thalib is!” he said firmly staring at them all.

The flashback

At that time the grandmother met at the nursing home where the grandfather lived right after his meeting with Osama, which was the third day of punishment Akira and the others.

“What else do you want to tell me, until someone tells me to come here!” said angry.

“Hemh .. You are always angry, this is about the story, yesterday I told people again,” his answer made grandma even more angry.

“Why are you so reckless, you should be grateful to only be punished by being placed here like everyone else, do you want more than this!”

“I can't bear to not tell you this again, what else for the boy, he has given me new hope,” he replied with a smile.

“You are! Is that grandpa's grandson again asking for it!”

“Not,”

“What is the rich man's son?”

“Not also, but he who is similar to Ken, his name is Muhammad Akira,” his answer made Granny surprised.

“What do you mean?”

“I don't know for sure, it's just that Ken's friends are Shiro, Chio and also the woman is Ayumi, they seem to keep a secret who is really the person, they say that he is Ken's twin, Ken, though we know that Ken is the only child of a local mother who accidentally left him at our friend's house that none other than Grandpa Ken to take care of them, then you know how next, then, his mother had already flopped on the cliff at the end of our village.”

“Iya-iya I know, so what exactly do you want to say!?”

“The name of the boy, you must know also that his name is the same as our father, Muhammad. A name given by Thalib himself,”

“Then what do you want with that?!” the answer seemed uninterested.

“Oh my sister, don't you want to go back to what you used to be, where when our father was a teenager, a village that was very open and not like this!"

“Why don't you just give up, you've been almost put to death by elders even want to be killed. Lucky elders have changed and also thanks to your son, everyone who still believes and wants to tell the story is not sentenced to death but only in a place like this, and this is like a prison!”

“But this time is different, I believe he is a person who came from far away and I am also sure he is the successor of Thalib who will bring about the change of our village,” he replied full of hope and passion.

The speech made the grandmother melt and began to believe the words of grandfather. “So what's your plan?”

“Make them all come to Osama's place to urge him to tell the truth about Thalib,” he replied.

“Gosh you are, why don't you just tell it, won't you also know cer ..”

“Can't! We have to make Osama believe it and tell them everything, that's the only way he can give away the precious things left of the traveler Thalib!” he answered, turning and walking towards the window, and then gazing far away at the outside world. From the gaze of the two of them looks hope emanated from the teary eyes.
