Return

The remaining rain from last night is still a sight this morning; today is the last day we all are in the camp area. The schedule for activities was getting tighter, and we had to get up earlier than usual because the activities had started at 6 am.

"Don't wake up!" said Farhan to Diga, who was still covered with the sleeping bad with the pattern of the army. The cold air didn't seem to want to leave Diga's body, making him feel comfortable.

"What time, Han?"

"Half past six," replied Farhan while eating the baked beans he brought home.

Diga woke up feeling suffocated from yesterday because he saw Kai with Nanang, a feeling he had to bear alone.

Farhan walked to the bathroom booth that the committee had provided because it was not possible to tell us to take a shower and defecate in the river. With dim eyes, Diga forced his body to get up; Farhan grabbed his hand because he didn't want to wait in line any longer.

"Don't forget to fill all the sleeping beds with mattresses. We'll be out of here this afternoon," said Rara loudly.

Arriving in front of the bathroom cubicle, there was already a snaking queue that made Diga even more reluctant to go.

"I'm annoyed with my tent mates," said a person who had just arrived with his hair tied up and his typical sullen face in Diga's eyes.

"Grandmother. In the morning, I'm just nagging; it's not good," replied Diga while ruffling Kai's hair.

Kai immediately pulled Diga's back shirt to ensure the bandage was attached correctly and the red medicine was evenly distributed on the wound.

"See. It's not right; the bandage is not attached properly," Kai muttered.

"Last night, I wanted to change your bandage, but it was already with Sis Rara. How? Have you moved on from Bella?" Kai teased with his annoying smile.

Diga did not answer Kai's words because everything Kai said was untrue. To lighten the atmosphere, Diga intended to, after coming home from this camp, eat Yamin noodles near his house complex.

"Noisy. Later, when you come home, the sun will still look like you're eating Yamin. Do you want it?" asked Diga.

Kai nodded his head, agreeing to Diga's invitation.

The atmosphere in the hall was starting to get crowded. Each student carries their bag and, of course, some carry-ons in their hands. Including Kai with a large and small suitcase in his hand.

Kai and Diga walked to the hall to enjoy a simple breakfast; Kai's laughter couldn't be controlled because of Diga's funny behavior and some stories from the tent that provoked Kai to laugh out loud.

"Yes, last night Farhan, I just arrived. He was snoring loudly! I stuffed his mouth with a tissue," said Diga.

"Keep going, Rizky. What time is it, at 3 o'clock? It looks like he wakes up to defecate, looking around looking for someone awake when he sees me; he immediately comes over and begs to ask for a to-the-bathroom cubicle, "repeated Diga, accompanied by a soft laugh.

"You know, no. Yesterday, when Sis Nanang suddenly came, oh my God, you're like a hero! Handsome!" Kai said suddenly as if to spoil Diga's mood.

Diga can't change his behavior immediately; he must cover this feeling tightly.

Diga's hand immediately patted Kai's head as if realizing that he couldn't possibly be Nanang's target.

"Remember, wow! You stink of armpits; where do you want Nanang to be with a girl who smells of armpits like you? Haha," laughs Diga over to Kai's eardrums.

Kai could only pinch Diga's belly, which was full of distension.

The journey home became a joy for all students as if their suffering was over; the signal was complex and of course, sleeping in an uncomfortable place and lots of mosquitoes made all the participants complain about it.

However, not for Diga. For him, this is something that makes him think that life should be grateful in any form, even though from the beginning of Diga's departure, he didn't want to, but it turned out that he got a lot of life provisions from there.

"Everyone prays according to their respective religions so that our journey will be saved until we return home," said Rara before leaving the tent.

Prayer is indeed a weapon of every difficulty because, in prayer, there is always hope that is widely available, even though we do not know what will happen there. Praying makes us calm in everything we do.

Kai just got into the army truck; he accidentally hit Dimas, carrying kitchen utensils; the pot that Dimas was holding suddenly fell quickly. Kai immediately took the pool.

"So, classmate, don't be pretentious. Wait for my revenge!" said Dimas, right in Kai's ear.

Kai immediately clenched his fists; he didn't know that Kai was once a good fencer.

"I don't know if I've already shown my fencing style. At least you know," Kai muttered in his heart.

Dimas immediately left Kai, standing in front of the truck, when Kai wanted to go up suddenly, a hand sincerely stretched out his hand to help Kai up.

"Come on up here," said Nanang.

Kai immediately pulled Nanang's hand; again, he was made to float by Nanang.

"One pack of complete dumpling Yamin noodles, no onions. One more thing, Mi Yamin doesn't use dumplings and uses a lot of leeks, sir," shouted Diga to the Yamin seller in front of his house.

They arrived at school precisely at 4 pm, as promised they both would visit Mi Yamin Mang Engking because they hadn't eaten Mie Yamin in a long time.

"How? Fun, right?" Kai said to Diga.

"Yes, so so so," answered Diga.

"Earlier, Dimas, when I was about to get on the truck, he was nervous," said Kai.

Diga immediately stopped playing on his cell phone.

"Hah? What's the threat?"

"He said to watch out; you're just being a classmate; you have a lot of styles!"

Diga immediately felt guilty because Kai had to bear the burden of being hated by others. He always judges himself and continues until he can't see the good side of himself.

"Here's the guarantee!" said mang Engking while giving them both orders.

While enjoying eating Yamin, he heard a phone call from Diga's cell phone. His mother's name appeared on the phone screen.

"Hello. Are you home still at school, or have you taken public transportation ?"

"It's already in front of the housing, ma'am,"

"Want to be picked up? Father just got home from work, let me all, "said the mother.

Kai immediately took Diga's cell phone and spoke directly to Diga's mother.

"Can aunt, we have a lot of luggage. Hehe," said Kai.

Finally, they were picked up by Diga's father using a car and did not forget to buy ice cream to their liking in front of his house.
