Moses POV
The night after the maghrib prayer in the mushola, I chose to go home first. While the youth and the complex fathers still chose to stay in the mosque to announce the takbir, I went straight into the house, to the dining table, he said, drink warm tea made by umi and eat banana compote that has been prepared.
Umi and Abi have been going to Uncle Irsyad's house since 5 pm, I drove them myself earlier, they said they wanted to surprise Uncle Irsyad and Bulik Santi. And want to break the fast together at his house. The surprise they did was very successful. Because Uncle Irsyad and Bulik Santi were so shocked when we came.
At first they asked me to break my fast there as well, but today I am on schedule to become a Maghrib prayer priest at the mosque. So after driving Umi and Abi I went back home.
When passing in front of Atmo's grandfather's house, I saw the atmosphere in his yard look lonely.
Wait for....
Why do I look at that house?, I don't know, this head and eyes are eager to look up and look that way, hoping to see the beautiful girl in the house, the beautiful girl who has been coming to my mind lately is on the porch. But hope lives hope, because the terrace of the house is very quiet.
Maybe my brain has started to go wrong lately, either starting from when, but I realize something is wrong with me.
The sound of takbir continues to roar from various directions, I took the paper bag that was given by Soleh at the workshop, actually this is not the first time I get a parcel from a girl.
From high school, to college, maybe this is Koko's dress to the tens that I get from a girl. That's why I don't want to think too far about the meaning of Sari's gift. Maybe he gave me this shirt because he wanted to express his gratitude to me for being his teacher.
I looked at the clothes carefully and I tried one by one, but there was no Umi at home. If Umi knew it would immediately tease me.
While putting the buttons on my shirt, I stared at my reflection in the mirror.
Though this koko buy is ready, but the body piece feels very fitting when I wear. Like Koko who was deliberately stitched with my body size.
Sari turned out to know my size, how can she buy clothes with a size that fits my body size?, does she secretly pay attention to me often?.
My brain re-thoughts about other absurd things, it always becomes like this when I think of Sari. When I was still staring at my reflection in the mirror, suddenly my phone lit up, it was Umi who called.
" Hello assalamualaikum umi, why the phone?".
" Greetings wa'alaikum, son of umi can please come here now?, all bring the parcels in the room umi, is in the closet on the top shelf", I went straight out to the room and looked for the parcel in question, opened the closet and my eyes went straight to the top shelf .
" What do you put in this white pocket of Umi?".
" Right baby, now bring it here yes, was Umi forgot to take tek all even bring it just a cake that was umi made".
" Well Umi, Musa went straight to Uncle Irsyad's house, Moses hung up, assalamualaikum", I hung up after umi answered my greetings.
My car drove to Uncle Irsyad's house. Again my eyes looked at Grandpa Atmo's house as he passed by, but this time I saw him. Seen he stared at the phone screen while raising his right hand which was still wrapped in a cast. Maybe he was chatting with his friends, because he spoke in a relaxed language and looked so happy.
Enough to see it at a glance, but it makes me feel so happy, it feels like I won the lottery, like there is an overabundance in this heart.
" Astaghfirullah ..!!!". I immediately stepped on the car brakes.
So fascinated, I unconsciously passed by uncle Irsyad's house. I could only smile to myself realizing my silliness. And rewind the car to return to its destination. I parked my car in Uncle Irsyad's yard, and went into the house.
There was actually a desire to stop by for a while at Grandpa Atmo's house, but I paused, after a confused thought also looking for the right reasons for these nights to visit there.
When I entered the house, Umi, Abi, Uncle Irsyad and Bulik Santi were either talking about what, they looked so engrossed, to the point of not hearing my greetings.
" Eh umi's son has arrived", Umi immediately took the parcel I held.
" This is for you, I take it all the way from Cairo, do not see the price, but see the benefits" said Umi.
Uncle and Bulik opened the parcel, it turned out to contain two prayer mats and two wooden prayer beads.
" Thank you Mba Zahra, Mas Idris, this will really be very useful for us", Bulik Santi immediately thanked Umi and Abi. The four of them talked and laughed together.
" Azka and Naura where is Bulik?", because I did not understand the talk of the parents, I chose to see my cousin.
Azka who was two years younger than me, but only given a sister when she was in 3rd grade High School, the age of the brother sister was very far, 18 years old.
Now Naura is 5 years old, being funny. When I played at Uncle's house some time ago did not meet with Naura, he said he was taking a nap, because he was learning to fast, so I forbade Bulik who wanted to wake him.
" The two of them came out, Azka accompanied Naura to the front field, he said he wanted to play fireworks, after all, it was on the field across the street exactly", Bulik pointed to the field in front of the house, I saw that there it looked rame.
I finally decided to go out and join Azka, but when I opened the door, it was a shock to see Sari standing at the door.
She looked at me so fixedly, actually what was she thinking?, oh right, I was wearing Koko's clothes bought by her, duh, but immediately found out again used.
" Assalamualaikum.", Sari's voice resuscitated me.
" Greetings wa'alaikum", I smiled knowing that Sari was fascinated to see me using her gift Koko.
I answered if there is a Sari who wants to visit, then I invite Sari to come in.
Sari greets everyone, except me. He handed the paper bag to Bulik Santi.
" Wah the pretty girl likes to share with the neighbors as well", Umi muttered with a smile towards Sari.
" Sari was told by mama to deliver this cake for Mr. Irsyad's family" Sari replied with a smile.
" Pak Irsyad and Miss Santi thank you for helping Sari and Grandpa so far" said Sari as she bowed to the host standing next to her.
" Whoa..thank you so much this can be sent from a beautiful girl, let's sit down first Sari...".
Bulik Santi embraces Sari's shoulder, telling Sari to sit down, but Sari subtly rejects her.
" Thank you, but Sari has to go home, mom and bi Nunung have not finished making her cake" .
Sari said goodbye to everyone and walked out of the uncle's house. He walked so hastily. It felt like he wanted to get out of the house immediately.
" Bulik, Moses wanted to follow Azka and Naura out", I chose to say goodbye again, and of course the expression of the umi immediately teased me. Modus..
I did not want to serve the temptation of Umi, and chose to leave the house, walking quickly trying to pursue the steps of Sari, who when I was studying turned out to be smiling sweetly.
Ehem.....
I deliberately made a sound so that she realized my existence, sure Sari was shocked when she heard my voice. And stop the move.
" Eh, Master, since when was there ".
Haha....
It turned out that he was daydreaming, and looked down embarrassed when discovered by me.
" From the moment you smile to yourself, why do you look so happy?, is it because your mom and dad are already here?".
Sari just nodded hearing my question. He asked back, though,
" Where is the teacher going?".
" Want to say thank you, for this", I pointed to Koko who I was wearing. " It fits perfectly in the body, and is also comfortable to wear, sorry for not giving you anything. Didn't expect to see you like this either".
Sari just smiled, "Did you want to stop by the house?".
I shook my head, "Just go there yuk, Uncle Irsyad's son is there. Do you like to play fireworks?".
" Like it" he answered.
We both crossed the street, headed for the field where many children were playing fireworks. The sound of takbir continues to roar, making the atmosphere tonight so beautiful. Coupled with Sari's happy laughter at the sight of the little children playing fireworks, again I was reluctant to take my eyes off her.

I was fascinated.I looked at (looked at) your sweet face...
Enchanted
I'm fascinated
Looking (looking) at your sweet face

Like the silk fabric of his dimples (dresses) your cheeks
Beautiful you

Everything that's on you
Makes me nervous
To the point that I woke up from my sleep
