POV Tantri

My eyes slowly opened, the faint ringing of my smartphone's alarm woke me from my sleep. Morning has arrived but my body still feels heavy to get up from the bed where I lay, not including the dizziness that is still left due to those annoying QR code puzzles that make my stomach feel a little nauseous.

Ah damn, come on Tantri wake up! Your enemies are relentless in making your life and the lives of your friends filled with suffering so you must be strong, just like your father and great grand uncle!

"Huuft!"

I exhaled as hard as I could and repeated it three times, then rose from the bed that I was sleeping on. When I was in sitting position, I immediately pushed the blanket that covered my thighs to my feet then put my feet on the floor and immediately stood up and then jumped up and down several times then walked to the door of the room where I was sleeping.

Oh yeah, as I remember when I lay down and threw my body on this bed I didn't cover my body with blanket at all, who covered me last night? Ah I don't know, it's not important, I have to immediately take ablution water and perform the morning prayer.

When I came out of the room, I saw Lodewijk had woken up from his sleep and was watching a football news program that broadcasted the results of last night's match. Wow, even when one of our friends is in danger, he can still enjoy life. Well, maybe because the way we were brought up by our respective parents were different that's why he wasn't like me who is more rigid.

I walked over to Lodewijk who was sitting on the sofa and his gaze was fixed on the tv that showing the news program of the last night's football match. I called him, his head and body turned several degrees and his head turned up to look at me who is standing behind him then he greeted me with a little joke but for some reason hearing that joke made me a little annoyed.

"Finally sleeping beauty wakes up."

"Huuft!" I exhaled as hard as I could. He showed me his smirk and told me about the breakfast he had made for me and Ilya.

"I've made breakfast for you and Ilya, Ilya has eaten his breakfast because he woke up before you around four o'clock this morning and prayed together with me in the mosque."

"Where is the toilet?" I asked him.

"Over there." he answered, pointing to the direction where the toilet is with his arms and palms open facing upward and his fingers pointing straight towards the toilet.

I walked away leaving him, took ablution water in the toilet then performed the morning prayer in the bed room that I used to sleep then ate the breakfast that Lodewijk had made at his dining table while checking whether there was a message from the landlord of the apartment building where Riri lives or not in my WA.

The landlord of the apartment building has texted me, he said he would meet me at his house at eight o'clock in the morning. I told Lodewijk about this from the room that I currently at.

"Hey Lodewijk, the owner of the apartment building where Riri lives wants to meet us at 8 am."

"Ok." said Lodewijk answered.

I finished eating my breakfast and then waited until the time for all of us to leave for our destination had arrived.

At 7.15 am we all went to the apartment building landlord's house using my car and this time it was Lodewijk who drove the car because I was still sleepy from not sleeping for two days and two nights. During the trip, dark grey clouds that covered the sun also shaded us, not a word came out of our mouths that made me slowly lulled by the drowsiness that made me slowly fell asleep.
