The Story of the Sky
Presentiments


07:00, second day of Eid.


Fadil who had been up since dawn, then took a bath, and continued to go to the mosque to pray the morning congregation, he began to prepare everything.


In front of the mirror in her room, she was combing her hair. Dress as neatly as possible, so that he looks so handsome more than usual. Not to forget, the non-alcoholic fragrance oil of his favorite Dalal brand, he dabbed on his body and clothes.


Ten minutes before 08:00, Fadil took out his motor, and heated the engine first. After a few minutes was enough, Fadil immediately rode his red CBR motorbike. His sturdy and athletic posture, increasingly makes him look dashing and harmonious with the motor he drives.


It excitedly, and the radiant smile that seemed from his face, showed that his heart was filled with happiness. Happy because of his relationship with the person he loved so much, Tiara, the village flower, has received the blessing of both parents. And today, he would invite Tiara to visit his relatives. Then go home, they will relax at a favorite meatball stall of young people, which is in a tourist spot called Taman Jodoh.


It didn't take long, Fadil had already entered Tiara's courtyard, after parking his motor, he went straight to the door of Tiara's house.


Tok tok...


'' Assalamu'alikum... ''


'' Waalaikumsalam.


Soon the door of the house opened, a teenage girl of the age of 8th grade, appeared behind the door. It turned out that Vita Tiara's sister opened the door.


'' Is there a tiara?'' ask Fadil.


Vita did not answer Fadil's question, she turned her head back and shouted:


'' Ma'am, where is Tiara?''


From the back room came Miss Lilis. Seeing Fadil's arrival, he walked over and stood beside Vita.


'' I went out with Yunita. Kirain's mother, had even gone together with Fadil as well.''bu Lilis looked rather astonished.


'' Not ma'am, because we have agreed to leave at eight.'' replied Fadil explained.


'' Emm.., Did you know Yunita has been gone a long time?'' continued.


'' Yes.., about 15 minutes ago..!'' answer to Miss Lilis.


'' Approximately, where did ma'am go?'' Fadil's getting curious.


'' I don't know son!''


'' Vit.., you know, where are your brothers going?''


'' I don't know, ma'am, but maybe to Yunita's friend's house. You see Vita heard this morning, Brother Yunita wants to nyamperin his theme ngajak streets.''


Fadil was silent listening to the conversation between Miss Lilis and Vita in front of him.


'' Yes, I want Fadil.., you just wait, maybe you will be home soon!'' bu Lilis' proposal.


'' Yes ma'am.'' replied Fadil.


'' I live first, son Fadil.., I still have a job in the kitchen. That.., while eating the cake.''


Bu Lilis opened several lid cake lebaran, after which Bu Lilis went to the kitchen followed by Vita.


Fadil sat there alone, and then he lit a cigarette. There was no cake that he touched. A cigarette was almost gone, but Tiara had not yet appeared. Fadil's heart began to feel anxious, inwardly he said:


'' Tiara.., where are you? how long!, we promised to go at eight.''


Half an hour later, Miss Lilis and Vita emerge from the kitchen.


'' The news is still not coming, too, son Fadil?'' ask Bu Lilis.


'' Not ma'am.'' yet.'' Fadil with a restless face.


'' Try being contacted by her phone, let's make a quick return!'' bu Lilis' orders.


'' It was already ma'am, but it was not lifted, maybe again on the road.'' replied Fadil.


While Fadil was waiting earlier, Fadil several times tried to contact Tiara's phone, but was not picked up.


'' Try to be contacted again, maybe where else?''


Fadil pulled out his phone again, then tried to call Tiara's phone again.


tuut...


There was a sound from Fadil's phone calling Tiara's phone. '' The number you are heading to is not able to receive calls, please contact a few more moments.'' tut. tut..


There was the sound of an automatic answering machine, after several calls were not picked up, then automatically disconnected.


Until a few times Fadil contacted, but still like that. When Fadil tries to contact again, Vita enters Tiara's room. Tiara's phone on the dresser is on the charger. The screen kept flashing, indicating there was a call, on the screen the phone was seen :''A A Fadilku called.''


Vita picked up Tiara's phone, then walked out of the room and said:


'' Ma'am., the pants are not lifted up, the phone is in the room.''


'' Ho.., yes pantesan!'' bu Lilis.


'' Try calling Yunita Vit!, the phone was taken right?''


Without answering, Vita immediately contacted Yunita's mobile number using Tiara's mobile phone.


tuut...


'' Captured not Vit?'' ask Bu Lilis.


Vita shook her head, then repeated the call.


tuut...


'' Appointed?'' ms. Lilis asked back.


Until the third call, the result was still the same. When trying to make the next call, the call was immediately disconnected.


'' Once again Vit!'' pinta bu Lilis to Vita.


'' The number you are going to, can not be contacted or outside the service area.''


Directly heard the voice of the answering machine from the operator, indicating that the phone opposite has been turned off.


'' Eeh, boy, what else? notya was lifted even turned off!'' gerutu Bu Lilis was upset after finding out that Yunita's phone had been turned off.


Fadil was increasingly uncomfortable, finally he permission to say goodbye to Miss Lilis.


'' Yes, ma'am, I said yes!''


'' where are you going Fadil? don't you want to wait for something soon?'' bu Lilis tries to persuade Fadil with a feeling of unease, because Tiara and Yunita are not home yet, also without news.


'' Let me wait for him at Mamat's house aja ma'am!, I happen to also have a little need with him.'' said Fadil make an excuse.


'' Sorry son!, it turned out like this.''


Miss Lilis escorted Fadil to the front door.


'' Yes mom, no papa!'' answer Fadil briefly.


Finally Fadil was alone, then turned on the motor engine. Then go to Mamat's house which is not far from Tiara's house. Coincidentally, at Mamat's house, Ulil's best friend was there . They were chatting in the guest room.


'' Ashalamu'alikum...'' Fadil after being at the door.


'' Wa'alaikumsalam... '' Ulil and Mamat together.


'' How come you are here Fadil? not wrong to stop by?'' Ulil teases Fadil.


'' He said he wanted to go with the angel, only at this hour have you come home? have not left yet?'' Ulil continued to nyerocos when Fadil entered the room.


'' Huu.., you little kupret. Not sitting down yet, a lot of questions asked. You think I'm a suspect?'' Fadil immediately replied to Ulil's story, while shaking hands with them. Mamat who witnessed the two thick friends, only joined the grin to see the behavior and pattern of both.


'' Yes, yes, mas Fadilkan, the suspect!, the suspected thief of the heart of our village flower, he.., is not Mat?'' Ulil turned towards Mamat looking for support from him.


Mamat was just a beard with a smile, responding to the words of Ulil who was staring at him.


'' Huu.., basic, you can!'' Fadil smiled as he threw a stew of boiled beans at Ulil, and right about his eel.


'' Ouch!, my acne.'' Ulil while stroking the pimples that grow on his forehead.


'' Idiih, horror, horror. You're in love again, aren't you Lil? try to see!, uih.., that's acne what boils huh? hence.., often wudhu.., let your face clean!'' now Fadil is starting to nyerocos.


'' wah.., severe mas Fadil. Udah know this acne, even said boils, do not know the saying times yes? a face without acne, like a sky without stars, he...''


'' hhhh, basic. Could have ngelesnya. Ngasal anyway!, ntar if in love many stars in your face, just know the taste.'' Fadil terbahak with the words of Ulil the origin of the ceplos.


Every time we meet, Ulil and Fadil are always there a joke material, so Fadil's heart is restless because it still has not met with Tiara was a little entertained.


'' Eh mas Fadil, I'm serious!, he said Fadil want to go with Tiara, why is it still here?''


'' The plan is so!, only Tiaranya again go with Yunita. That's why I'm waiting, it's just been almost an hour, they still haven't appeared yet.''


'' Yes called dong mas Fadil.!, suggested Ulil.


'' It was Lil.., but the phone was at home, Tiara didn't bring her phone.''


'' That Yunita?''


'' I was contacted, but not picked up. Even the last time, it was killed again, huff.'' Fadil.


'' Yes.., I was waiting for that!, or if not, followed by Fadil!''


'' where did Lil go..? where do people go, do not know?''


'' Ebu, the plan is to go where mas Fadil?'' ask Ulil.


'' I was going to go to my brother's place. Continue to stop by the Garden of Soulmates!'''


'' Maybe he's been there.''


'' Yes, I don't know either!, but.., wait another 5 minutes ajalah, if 5 more minutes still haven't come, then I will be there.''


After waiting for 10 minutes, no signs of Tiara would appear. Finally Fadil decided to go to Taman Jodoh, to ascertain whether Tiara and Yunita were already there.


He invited Ulil to come with him. Ulil initially refused, but after being persuaded by Fadil, Ulil finally went with him. They left after saying goodbye to Mamat. Ulil joined Fadil.


A while later, Ulil and Fadil are already in the tourist spot of Taman Jodoh. There the visitors are already quite crowded. However, after wandering around the place, Fadil still did not find the whereabouts of Tiara.


Fadil then pulled out his phone. For the umpteenth time, try contacting Tiara's number again. But the one who picked up his phone was Vita, and Vita also said that Tiara and Yunita still did not come home.


Fadil's mood began to change. As he departed from home, his face was extremely radiant. But now his face was grim with sadness, disappointment, and also a sense of pent-up emotion. Viewed time on the screen of his phone, already showed at 10:05. Fadil's thoughts began to fall apart, Fadil finally said to Ulil:


'' Lil.., we go yuk!'' bring Fadil.


'' Where is Fadil?'' ask Ulil.


'' I don't know Lil, the important way, I really feel Lil.''


Ulil who saw his best friend like that, it was not hearty to reject the invitation from Fadil. They finally left without a purpose. Ulil did not dare to invite Fadil to joke, he only said when Fadil asked him to talk, but when Fadil was just silent, he also remained silent.


Unwittingly by Fadil, the motorbike he drove with Ulil to the main road to the city of Baturaja.


Fadil rode his bike very slowly. Its speed only ranges from 20 to 30 km/h. The motor that should be enjoyed with more speed, even looks very lethargic, as lethargic as the soul and body of Fadil at this time.
