THE SOUL OF MAYRA
31 (Dreams only)
The last day of the graduation exam and the class hike has arrived today. The sun's eloquence greeted the santri-santriwati who looked in unison towards the madrasah. Slightly different from their faces in the previous day, today their faces looked radiant.
Notah because of the ablution water or because the test they faced had reached its final peak today. To be sure, they never stop smiling despite being faced with the difficulty of pesantren life. But behind it all, they will receive memories and unforgettable impressions later.
In a special ninth grade santriwati class, Mayra class. Almost all of the students focus on their books. Not spared Kayla. Really amazing view, isn't it? Safa now believes Kayla is intent on change. Not learning as before.
"Assalamualaikum warrahmatullahi wabbaraktuh."
The soft voice of the young woman clad in a gray robe, and her black quadrilateral hijab entered the classroom. That's Aina's diploma. All santriwati also answered his greetings.

If Mayra in his boarding school on Saturday remains in the madrassa, hold various public and religious lessons. So, Fara did not. His school is full day school, on Saturday like today he is off.
And, to fill the weekend, Fara chose a video call with two friends who learned in Japan using a tablet. A glass of milkshake and pancakes topped with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream, accompanied him at the study table.
The balcony door was deliberately opened to enjoy every morning breeze. However, the door of his room was tightly closed and even locked. What purpose? Of course to prevent Reynar from entering his room.
Why Reynar often visits, and only revokes him. What a jobless kid!
However, who would have thought if occasionally Fara glanced at the door of her room that was locked tightly from inside. I hope there will be a knock or scream as usual. Until it was not felt the time showed at half-nine, Fara had completed her video call.
Once again Fara glanced at the door, even she stared blatantly with a flat expression. Not expecting if he would feel lonely without Reynar, an annoying neighbor who always seemed to be alone in his room, out and out of his apartment, to poke it with the sentence does not stop from the tongue.
Pause for a few seconds, Fara stared at the wall grid on her front wall. He looked at some of the polaroid photos he had. Fara takes a Polaroid photo of herself and Mayra.
Again and again, Fara was eager to meet and embrace Mayra as closely as possible. A faint smile rose at Fara. What does that smile mean, until finally the knock on the door broke the calm in his room.
Tok tok!!
A girl wrapped in a robe and her quadrilateral hijab was smiling sweetly at him. Without a warning, Fara's body hit the girl's body. Fara held her tightly until the girl chuckled.
"May ... You're here why not say something?" Fara held the two hands of the veiled girl with a big smile.
However, the one being asked only reviewed his smile constantly.
"May!" Fara bent her lips pouting as she felt ignored. "This is Mayra my brother, right? Mayra Athifa, right?!"
Mayra was smiling again. Pause a few seconds Mayra hugged Fara tightly. Just like Fara. Until Fara also chuckled small at this moment. The warm decks of the two girls were completely washed away to the deepest bottom. Fara is comfortable with a deck like this.
"MILFRA!!"
The deg! Fara jumped in shock plus the presence of Reynar in front of him, increasingly making him widen his eyes. Fara stared at the photo pholaroid lying on her study table. Mayra and she were holding each other, their smiles were wide. But, just a dream?
"Woy, relax! It's still noontime, Ra!" reynar. He went to Fara's single sofa which he used to sit on if visiting. "Lo what dreams to the shock of kek see dracula?"
Fara grunted softly. He still hoped that the momentum was not just a dream, but reality. Dear thousand dear, God only treats his longing to Mayra, by presenting Mayra in a dream instead of reality.
"No need to know, Rey!?!"
