In the evening they performed the ceremony because all preparations were perfect until it was finished. Osama, Akira and the others also returned to help as food keepers in the fines they had rebuilt, seen the residents happily take the food prepared by Akira and others.
They also seem to have no objection at all to the presence of Akira in that place, some residents even chatted with them because Akira and others had helped them prepare everything this afternoon, from Akira and Chio who slaughter and clean animals to Ayumi and Shiro who help mothers cook.
Since the citizens had finished, they were willing to replace Osama, Akira and the others to take care of the food so that they could take turns eating together. At that time they chose to sit briefly behind the people who prepared food in their place.
“Seeing you who are very helpful here makes me think that you all will soon leave the village,” said Osama while smiling sadly.
Akira and the others were sad. “True uncle, we will indeed leave this village soon,” replied Chio making Osama jerked.
Suddenly he smiled. “I have expected you guys will definitely leave the village soon, I bet you guys must have gotten a clue in the relics of Thalib itukan?” ask Osama.
“A’ahh .. we plan to go to the land of Sabbat to look for other clues about the month of Ramadan or Islamic civilization, in the diary Thalib said there is a more developed country that helps the country of Sabbat, Sabbat,” reply Akira.
“Thank God then, I'm happy,” said Osama is still sad.
“Then are you also coming?” ask again.
“Iya! We will definitely come too,” replied Ayumi excitedly.
“Alright ... I will definitely always support you guys well .. although I will be sad because I still want to learn a lot from Akira,” he said.
“Yes pardon .. pamankan has been taught how to pray and read, plus other things,” said Chio.
“Yah right! All I have to do is preach so that the Muslims in our country will continue to grow and will be able to do everything else, but Akira, he said, you also have to come back when you find out when Ramadan begins so that later we Muslims in this country can feel the excitement of Ramadan as you tell us in your world,” Answer Osama standing up from his excited seat.
“A’ahh .. that is for sure, even if I am late back then the people from the country we came to bring good news to the people of this country!” akira replied excitedly as well.
“Thank God so you guys when to go?” ask Osama.
“Maybe tomorrow or Wednesday, Akira said Wednesday is a very good day to start something,” Ayumi replied.
“Alright! Then I want to go first there is something I have to prepare for you to go later,” he said immediately left before Akira and others had time to ask.
After Osama left, they took the leaf-wrapped food that the residents had provided, then they chose the chairs and tables that were also provided by the residents, many of them eat together because the view is quite beautiful from the neatly arranged torch lights.
At that time they chose to sit at a table that was slightly sidelined. While eating together suddenly Arnius came with a chicken in their shirt.
“Cover!” he shouted with a distinctive face like this afternoon.
Akira is made to choke and they are shocked because Arnius who comes to surprise them even to throw a live chicken their dinner shirt. “Arnius! Sineh let your neck I slaughtered!” chio shouted irritatedly and angrily wanting to hit Arnius, but Shiro and Akira held him back.
“Ha ha ha ha. .. I'm here to learn by a teacher how to slaughter a good one like this afternoon! And I also want to learn Islam so that what I slay becomes halal for anyone!” he said to Akira, hearing that Chio immediately stopped being angry, Ayumi and Akira were flabbergasted to see his sincerity.
Akira hesitated a little because he felt in disbelief only because Arnius felt confident and sincere with what he wanted. “You sure? no, I mean, all right! As soon as you follow what I say!” akira answered more excitedly.
After that Arnius also followed Akira to read the two times of the Shahadah as a condition of converting to Islam until it was finished. Then Akira also taught him how to slaughter the right he looked very proud and amazed when he saw Akira teaching him a lot about Islam. “Good Arnius you have understood, now you must learn to pray! Later go to Uncle Osama's house, he will teach you many things as I have taught, you can continue to grow so better!” akira told him.
“Ha ha ha ha .. well I will go to Osama's house soon to teach him!” the answer.
“Loh it's Guni and the other goons, is he with you?” tanya Chio pointed at those who were facing towards Akira and the others. From their gazes they all looked embarrassed so that they turned their faces away.
Akira gave her two thumbs up. “Ha ha ha .. Then I will go to meet Osama to teach others!” he said he then went with Guni and the 3 thugs while carrying the chicken he threw earlier.
“Do you think they've changed?” ask Chio.
“That's why I hope so,” Ayumi replied, “Oh yes by the way Shiro kept quiet,”.
“Yes, what is it?” ask Chio too.
“Cih ... is nothing,” answers.
Akira and the others stared in wonder.
“A’ahh .. so when will we leave tomorrow or ..”
“Cih ... Why should we go, why not stay in this country! Aira! You are! You don't have to follow our agreement yet, stay in this country, I'm sure we'll still manage to find what you're looking for, I'm sure our country still has a big secret about what you're looking for!” cut Shiro.
“Shiro ... don't you want to go?” ask Ayumi.
Seeing Akira and Chio's astonished gaze made him say everything. “Yah! I don't want to go and I also want you to stay in the village,” he replied.
“Sorry Shiro, but I have to keep going because there is a possibility that the next clue is in Sabbat country,” Akira replied a little sad.
“All right is up to you! Then Ayumi, Chio, you two don't go leave her alone, I'm sure she won't be able to survive and will definitely come back here, ” Shiro replied.
“No Shiro, I have made up my mind to go with Akira, it is not about Akira anymore but about us,” Chio replied.
“Chio is right Shiro .. This is not about Akira anymore, but this is about Islam, we have to search for Islamic civilization in this world to find Ramadan and other knowledge in order for our Islam to be stronger.” Ayumi Sahut.
“Cih .. It's up to you guys, I don't care anymore! wherever you go I don't care anymore!” he answered angrily as he stood up from sitting down.
Akira also stood up from his seat. “Shiro ... This time I will act as I please, I already know that you think not to come, but I will be selfish this time. I want you to come with us, whatever your reasons for refusing I want you to come along to help us. If you reason that you're not a part of us, I don't care that you have to keep helping us. If you reason that we're troubling you, I'll trouble you even more by having to come with us. If you reasoned that you had a family and they would forbid you, then I told your family and they said the decision was yours, therefore if your decision does not follow then I force you to come with us!” akira looked seriously at him.
Shiro is upset that he cannot answer Akira. “Cih .. ap-what the fuck are you my mamaks so, no matter what I want you guys can't force me so.” The answer.
“I don't care like Akira, you have to stay with us Shiro!” chio Sahut.
Shiro flinched as he was pressed by the two of them. “Shiro we talked to your parents, they said it was your decision, they also said that if you were an adult they would not interfere anymore if you chose anything, but your mom said we had to protect you whatever it was. Akira ... he was the one who begged you to come with your mother and he also promised to protect you from everything,” said Ayumi.
“Cih ... Things like that you hide it and even talk to my parents without my presence. You guys have gone too far and just embarrassed me, plus want to protect me, cih ... sure enough you are weak where it might be basic!” he answered while leaving them.
“I don't care about that, tomorrow we will wait for you in the middle of the village, prepare all your needs, if you don't come then we will come to your house to force, and if you still don't want to, if you still don't want to, then Wednesday we will return to your house to force you to leave!” yelled Akira manatap Shiro who kept walking away.
“Cih ... You base Akira, that means Wednesday is my last choice to come,” he said slowly while anxious.
Akira, Chio and Ayumi could only be silent and saddened to see Shiro continue to move away, with the three of them both feeling afraid that Shiro would not come with them, even though they had to force him like that.
