"So where are we going?" Syifa asked from earlier, but both Asthma and Ida just kept quiet with meaningful smiles. Makes him a little upset.

His eyes spread a look. Trying to remember every road they walk. It's been over an hour Ida's car drove at a moderate speed. But they have not yet reached their destination.

Syifa's hand then took a bottle of drink in her bag. Sipping the water with pleasure. Heedless of the two pairs of pretty eyes staring at him.

"No fasting?" ask Asma by raising one eyebrow. Syifa's eyes were shocked.

"I forgot!"

Asthma and Ida shook their heads slowly.

"Sorry, I'm not used to it. So my satisfaction is off?" syifa asked with a disappointed face.

Ida simply fell silent while looking straight at the road. He drives quietly. Then he pulled his car over on the side of the road. A mountain road. The smell of wet soil smells thick.

"Kok quit?" ask Syifa

"I want to call Ummi first. We want to join i'tikaf in the pesantren. Well Ummi share loct but now here the internet signal is already weak. Da, please tell Syifa! " Astma then got out of the car. Standing up and looking like you're calling someone.

"You know what?" syifa asked as she looked at Ida.

"You actually forgot? " Syifa nodded quickly. It was his first Ramadan so he forgot. It is customary to go everywhere with a bottle of water in his bag.

"If you really forget, the fast is not off" Ida said with a smile. Syifa knitted her brows. I don't understand what Ida means. Is it not forbidden to eat and drink?

"From Abu Hurairah radhiyallahu ‘anhu, he said, Rasulullah shallallahu ‘alaihi wa sallam said, “Whoever forgets that he is fasting and eats or drinks, then let him complete his fast, for at that time God gave him food and drink.”

"Alhamdulillah" said Syifa with a smile.

"God, dear to me, you know the thirst of fasting for the first time." Syifa chuckled with teary eyes.

"Yes Syifa, that's Bukhari's hadith. So inshaa Allah hadith shahih."

Asthma enters and exchanges positions with Ida. Now he's driving.

"But I've finished half the bottle, really no papa?"

"Yes, even if you have eaten a plate of rice and actually forget, can be continued fast," said Asma then stepped on the gas pedal slowly. He was driving at moderate speed.

"But be careful if you pretend to forget!" chirp Ida with her eyes.

Asthma and Syifa laughed. Soon their car entered a large gate. They are asked all sorts of things. What they need and who they are. Asthma told him according to what Ummi said.

The silver car then entered the pesantren. There was the sound of the chanting of the Holy Quran from a large mosque there. Marking soon adzan dzuhur reverberating.

"What the hell is that?" syifa asked as they lowered the bag in the back seat.

"Assalamualaik."

"Wa'alaikumsalam," said Asma and the three of them turned themselves around. Looked a middle-aged woman with a beige dress and a long and wide hijab with matching colors.

"This must be the same Asthma, huh?" tanyakanya.

"Yes, I'm Asthma. This is Ida and Syifa." the middle-aged woman was seen watching them. Syifa has a beautiful face and a tall body. Blue eyes and beautiful lashes. White as white as a regular bule. The car looks mysterious. Wear blue and pashmina dress with matching colors. The style looks like a young boy while Ida is on the right side of Asthma. Having a typical Asian woman face. Light yellow white with tanned iris eyes. Shortest among Asma and Syifa. Wearing a brown robe with a long hijab with matching colors.

The woman then noticed Asthma, Asthma's face looks small behind her khimar. Maybe he has a cute face. But the bead of blue eyes is so bright. Asthma and Syifa are the same but they are not. Syifa's eyes have a slightly darker blue color than Asthma's. Asthma wears black and khimar robe and hijab with matching colors.

"Hm." Ida nodded to the woman.

"Come, let me take you to the room. Umi's busy and can't be bothered."

"Shukron Mum ...."

"People here used to call me Ustadzah Kulsum."

"Why are they looking at us!" syifa grumbled with a slow murmur.

"I'm sorry for them. They're the lodge boys here, not only Tsanawiyah Madrasah but Aliyah Madrasah also exists."

Asma and Syifa knitted their brows. Uncomprehending.

"I mean Ustadzah Kulsum it's because we're a bunch of beautiful and alien creatures so they squirm it so!" chirp Ida with a relaxed tone.

"Yes, that's right. You are indeed very beautiful and perhaps your existence will stand out greatly." Ustadzah Kulsum threw a friendly smile.

Ida suddenly felt bad from realizing, just praising herself.

"Eat him, next time the mouth is in control!" whispered Syifa while holding back laughter. Ida twisting the eyeball.

"Sorry Ustadzah, what is it?" ask Syifa as she continues walking.

"It's still far?" coined.

"Jeez Syifa, the only dong nanyanya," said Ida while shaking her head.

"The truth from now on is that I'm the same you're just silent. I'm actually cape, bring a big bag!"

Asthma laughed a little behind her khimar.

"I'tikaf comes from the Arabic akafa which means to settle, confine yourself or be obstructed." spontaneously the three of them put up an ear. Waiting for the next explanation of Ustadzah Kulsum.

"The understanding in the context of worship in Islam is to remain silent in the mosque in order to seek the pleasure of Allah SWT and to be dignified (introspection) for his actions. People who are being recognized are also called mutakif," explained Ustadzah then turned the key when they got to a simple building. Syifa.

"This is Ustadzah's unmarried dormitory. So if there's anything. I'm in the dorm over there." Ustadzah Kulsum pointed at the building opposite their room.

"Please enter. Later Ummi will visit you after his business is done." The middle-aged woman then said goodbye. The three of them entered and saw a room with a large bed there. If you look at this room is quite large but because of the existence of the bed, this room looks narrow.

Ida put her body on that bed. Followed by Syifa while Asma closed the door and cleaned up her clothes.

"Assha."

Asma turned to Ida who was still laying down. Calling her but the woman closed her eyes.

"We're a whole month here?"

"As far as you are. If I really might be," said Asma then continue his activities.

"I'm here too. I want to learn more about Islam."

Smiling asthma. While Ida breathed a rough breath.

"Why Da?" Asthma sits next to Ida who is still closing her eyes. The frown on his forehead signified that something was interfering with his mind.

"I'm afraid to meet Ustad Dhika." Asthma knitted her brows. Didn't Ida really idolize that guy?

Ida told me briefly about everything. Her marriage and meeting with Dhika. Syifa also listened even though her hands were playing her phone.

"That means you've never met your future husband in person?" ask Syifa.

"What's his name?" ask Asma.

"His name is Reno Dwija Sanjaya."

asthmatic Eyes wide.
