The Story of the Sky
Help Zul


On the way to Zulkifli's house, Fadil sees Yanto and Iwan riding a motorcycle and will cross paths with him. Suddenly, Fadil took his hand out of the open windshield of the car. Between his fingers, tucked a cigarette that was still smoked. Fadil then flicked his fingers.


'' Tiuu...''


When Fadil flicked his finger, the cigarette in his hand shot out like a bullet that slipped from his sleeve. From a distance of 30 meters, the cigarette directly stuck on the front tire of the motorbike being driven by Yanto and Iwan.


'' Duarr''


Suddenly the front tire of the Yanto motorcycle exploded. No doubt, Yanto who was riding the motorcycle was surprised and could not control the speed of his vehicle. Although not in high speed, but the bike became shabby due to the rupture of the front tire. Yanto could not control the speed of his vehicle, so his motorbike was immediately nyungsep in the bushes on the side of the road.


'' Bruk''


Yanto and Iwan fall down in the bushes with the motor they drive. As a result, although they were not injured, their clothes and appearance became disheveled. Fadil and Ulil who saw them like that, immediately chuckled. After being right in front of them, Fadil immediately stopped his car.


'' Bro! what's there? if you want to fall asleep, just sleep at home. Not in the bushes, later on the gatel!'' babble Fadil while chuckling.


Seeing someone laughing at him, Yanto seemed to want to be angry. However, when he found out that the one laughing at him was Alan, a person similar to Fadil, he was stunned instead. The swear words he was about to say, now became restrained and he could not say.


'' K you, still..?'' yanto said not to continue his speech.


'' Still what? still alive!'' replied Fadil who immediately understood what Yanto was going to say.


'' Oh yes, bro! that, you look forward to Mbah Tiwon. He said you should go there fast. If not! get ready aja you will be in the santetnya.'' said Fadil then return to bring his car, leaving Yanto and Iwan who are increasingly dumbfounded to hear the words Fadil.


'' Wan, how could he know about Mbah Tiwon huh! so why did he feel like he had not experienced anything? Not Mbah Tiwon said! that last night he would have done something to her?'' yanto was astonished.


'' Yes yes! I'm also astonished. Not that everyone knows, who and how Tiwon mbah is?'' ivan replied, full of astonishment.


'' Yes, wan! we better get to Tiwon's place as soon as possible. Let's ask you guys, why is that guy still okay? Is it possible that Tiwon still hasn't done her job, or what? we better ask him!''


'' Okay boss! but.. how do we get there? not the boss motor...?'' said Iwan while pointing towards the flattened Yanto motorcycle tire.


'' Yes, how else would a woman! you push the motor to the workshop. Let me call my papa, make us go to Tiwon's place Mbah replied Yanto, leaving Iwan who painstakingly tried to take Yanto's bike up the road.


Yanto who aims to find out how the results of Tiwon's work, now he feels disappointed after seeing the target is fine. He then contacted his parents, and reported the conditions and situations he saw. Not long after, Mr. Romli came with his car. They then went to the Mbah Tiwon place, after leaving the nearest motorbike.


On the way, Yanto goes back to telling how he saw Alan who looked fine. Neither Yanto, Iwan, nor Mr. Romli, they still do not know that now Alan is Fadil. If only Iwan knew, if now the one in Alan's body was Fadil, maybe he would understand a little, why Alan until now still looks okay.


He himself was once close to Fadil, and little knew of the abilities possessed by Fadil. Therefore, when Fadil had not died in an accident, he did not dare to harass Fadil when Fadil was close to Tiara.


When they arrived at Tiwon's abode, they were immediately greeted by Mbah Tiwon with a look of hatred. So, Yanto who wants to ask for his dissatisfaction with Tiwon's performance, now he feels fear made.


'' B******t you! Why didn't you tell me from the beginning, about who you want to get rid of!'' tiwon was full of hate.


'' Sorry Mbah! what does it mean to say that? didn't you say you could do it yesterday? and also, Mbah himself has already received payment from us!'' yanto answered with fear looking at Mbah Tiwon's gaze.


'' Yes indeed! I was able to. But, that's because you didn't tell me what the guy was like. Anyway, now I'm asking for 3 times the fee from the original agreement.''


'' If not! I will release him to finish you all off!'' threaten Mbah Tiwon while pointing towards Banaspati and opening the curtain that covers it.


When the curtain that covered Banaspati was opened, Yanto, Mr. Romli, also Iwan, immediately shuddered in fear. Even Mbah Tiwon himself, was actually worried. In case, the blue light that locked and bound the body of Banaspati was gone. Because Mbah Tiwon himself, currently does not have any ability to face Banaspati. However, he did not want it to be known to others. Because if it is known by Yanto and others, of course he will not be able to ask for compensation for his ability that has been eliminated by Nur Alim and Fadil last night.


'' How? do you want to be the creature's meal, or do you pay as I say!'' threaten Mbah Tiwon again, then immediately close the curtain.


Seeing how the creature was formed, plus the threat from Mbah Tiwon, Yanto and others did not dare to refuse the request of Mbah Tiwon. Although with a heavy heart, Mr. Romli was forced to accept the request from Mbah Tiwon.


'' It's good that you follow my words, remember! from now on and in the future, you should never come here again said Mbah Tiwon after receiving some money from Mr. Romli.


'' But.. What about..'' said Yanto who is still not satisfied with Mbah Tiwon.


'' Already! not much but everything. Or you want me to make a sacrifice for that creature!'' soon Mbah Tiwon cut off Yanto's words.


'' Alright, mbah! forgive my son's words!'' replied Romli immediately, worried that Tiwon really did what he said.


Not long after, they immediately left the residence of Mbah Tiwon. On the way, Mr. Romli had scolded Yanto because of his regret for Mbah Tiwon who had not been channeled.


Elsewhere. Fadil after leaving the place, where Yanto and Iwan were still confused by the words of Fadil who knew their secrets, He went straight to the residence of Zul.


As soon as Zul sees the car brought by Fadil, Zul immediately exits the house welcoming their arrival. With a smile full of joy, Zul immediately invited Fadil and the others to enter the house.


'' Come on kang, mbak! please sit!'' said Zul invited his guests while in the guest room.


'' Yes kang, thank you!'' fadil replied followed by Ulil, Tiara and Rina, immediately sitting on the chair in the room.


'' How lonely is kang Zul, father and mother again where?'' asked Fadil who did not see the whereabouts of Zul's parents and younger siblings.


'' Oh. anu kang. Father same mother, again friendship to the place of brothers. If my sisters, again go for a walk with his friends. Most of the afternoon, they just came home.'' replied Zul who then went back to make a drink.


Before long, Zul appears again while bringing warm tea for all of them. After serving the hot drink, Zul sat down with them.


'' Monggo was drunk and tasted! just yes sorry, there are just kayak gini aja and even this has been left over.'' Zul while opening the lid of the jar containing the Eid cakes.


'' Iya kang Zul, sorry even ngerepotin.'' said Fadil, then drink warm tea made by Zul.


'' Nerepotin what tho kang! wong is just drinking water!''


'' Oh yes, who is this?'' tanya Zul saw Ulil.


'' Ulil kang, his friend Mas Fadil.'' replied Ulil while putting a glass after drinking tea made by Zul.


'' If that one, her name is Rina kang Zul.'' said Fadil while pointing at Rina.


Zulkifli mangosteen, at a glance he looked at Rina. Lina smiled and nodded her head, as Zul looked towards her. While enjoying the cakes, they continued to chat a lot of things. Until without feeling, they had been talking for more than an hour.


'' Oh yes kang Zul, by the way! when did kang Zul return to the pesantren and carry out his marriage contract?'' ask Fadil.


'' Yes he wants, before the middle of this month Shawwal kang. Abah said it! the event was held on the 15th of this month. But...'' Zul hesitated to continue his words.


'' But what else is kang? not that Abah has given a good day to your show!'' fadil looked at Zul curiously.


'' Anu kang, sorry! Actually, my family is still constrained by something.'' Zul replied looking a bit confused.


'' What is the kang barrier? try kang Zul say! who knows I can help a little.'' said Fadil offering help.


'' Emm anu kang, sorry! It's actually an internal matter for our family. I also actually want to ask for help with sampeyan kang, but I am still a bit hesitant and not tasty to convey it.'' said Zul still hesitant and uncomfortable to convey what he wanted to say.


Seeing this, Fadil slightly understood what made Zul uncomfortable to convey his point. He then invites Zul out of the room, and continues his chat in the back room. Zulkifli then recounted what was a burden on his mind as well as his parents.


Fadil mangosteen heard the narration from Zulkifli. He smiled looking at Zul, then with great dignity, he said:


" Kang Zul, look at me! I'm not Alan, but this body belongs to him. I have memories of him too. I also know that this Kang Zul will be his representative Abah, who will work together on the project that is being pioneered by Alan. Kang Zul knows it himself! how did Alan's family treat me?''


'' For that kang Zul. Although I'm not Alan, but please! don't consider me someone else. I'll keep acting to the Zul kang, just like Alan did to the Zul kang. So, kang Zul need not hesitate to talk to me, if it really needs something in the future.'' Fadil explained to Zulkifli.


Hearing the words from Fadil, Zul also felt moved. A sense of disdain for Fadil who had enveloped his heart, now turned into a sense of closeness like his closeness with Alan. Fadil patted Zul on the shoulder, then said:


'' So, how much does kang Zul need for the application fee, as well as the cost for the brothers of kang Zul?'' ask Fadil to Zul.


Although Abah Ubaid and Umm Hafsah have advised Zul, so there is no need to give anything as a gift for his marriage to Naila, but anyway, Zul also needs to maintain the image of himself and also Abah Ubaid in front of the community and the students of Abah Ubaid. Moreover, Abah Ubaid is a caregiver of a pesantren that is quite famous in his area.


'' Yes before I apologize kang, because I have to trouble kang Fadil. But I also do not understand, about how appropriate it is for the matter at hand.'' Zul told Fadil.


'' Yes, yes, it is kang! insyaallah tomorrow I will send the money via bank transfer, said Fadil after storing account number belonging to Zulkifli.


After the two of them felt enough talking, Fadil and Zul then returned to the room with Ulil and the others. Half an hour later, Fadil and his entourage told Zul to go home.
