Hi everyone, we're starting this year with a new episode of Hadithi ya Alfajiri Safi, which marks an end to an ongoing saga set in Australia and our characters' adventures in that country, which started with the Christmas Island Adventure episode from last time.
Anyways, previously on Hadithi ya Alfajiri Safi, xyuro and her friends arrived in Australia to save Yara from her future marriage and honeymoon with Kamal thanks to her new friend Asher's help only to confront Kamal in Higankoi Gakuen and soon everything turns out to be a dream all along, as xyuro woke up to write stories about Yara and Lael's relationship as well as Yasmina's new adventure in Australia.
One day, upon stepping foot outside of the airport in Perth, Yasmina and her friends were excited about the city, surrounded by the flowing Swan River.
"Wow, what is this place... This is so amazing, right everybody?", Bruno said.
"Yes. It's like that we're completely in a different world from where we used to live!", Yatomi responded.
While everyone was busy exploring the streets of Perth, they saw Asher smiling at them.
"Who's that guy? I don't think we've seen him before.", Najwa whispered to Gulzar.
"Najwa, I don't know who this guy is. We've never been to Australia our whole lives since it's our first time visiting this place.", Gulzar whispered back.
"Hey girls, what are you talking about?", says Asher, in front of them.
"Nothing. It's just that we're new to this country.", Najwa and Gulzar responded.
"Oh, I see. And who are your other friends?", Asher asked back.
"They are Yasmina, Bruno, Yatomi, Yara and Nate.", Najwa told him.
Asher nodded and said "That's cool."
He saw Yasmina and shook hands with her.
"Hi Yasmina, welcome to Australia! What brings you all here?", he said to Yasmina.
"We're here to enjoy a variety of different activities like travelling to the Outback, surfing, enjoying the Great Barrier Reef, and so many more!", Yasmina replied.
"That sounds great! By the way, since it's slowly getting dark, let me bring you guys to my mate Cedric's house, okay?", Asher told her, to which she nodded back.
Later that night, while at Cedric's house, everybody had a great time and just as they were all about to drink tea, someone knocked on the door to the point where Nate headed towards the door.
"Hello, who's this?", Nate asked.
"Let me open the door, Nate.", Asher told him before opening the door.
Upon opening the door, he saw Eliakim with his baggage and asked him "Eliakim, why are you here this late?"
To their shock, they saw Kenan also walking in with an another baggage.
"Hey! Did you guys show up out of the woop woop?", Asher said to Eliakim and Kenan in an sarcastic manner.
"No, we didn't show up out of the woop woop, Asher! Me and Eliakim are here to stay at your friend's house overnight!", Kenan responded in the same manner as him while laughing at the same time.
"No worries, guys! Come in, we have a variety of delicious tea to enjoy tonight.", Cedric said to them before letting Eliakim and Kenan into his house.
The next morning, Yasmina woke up and saw Yara, Kenan and Yatomi panicking at the same time.
Meanwhile, Eliakim saw Asher and an another neighbor outside of the house talking to each other.
"Hey, why are they panicking over some stubby?", the neighbor said to Asher.
"I don't know, but when I woke up, Nate told me that my friend Cedric had passed out pissed on the floor and that's why they're all freaking out.", Asher replied to said neighbor.
"Damn, that's very iffy. Is your friend okay after drinking all this?", the neighbor replied back.
"Yeah, Cedric's doing okay now.", he said back before saying goodbye to the neighbor and parting ways with each other.
Upon getting back to the house, Asher saw the guests at the house packing their baggage and he did the same thing as them.
After they were all done packing their baggage, he said goodbye to his friend Cedric and left the house with the other guests to walk around the city.
While they were walking across the streets of Perth, they stopped at a local café facing the Swan River to have lunch.
There, Yasmina made plans with Asher and her friends to explore the Outback and the Great Barrier Reef as well as surfing.
2 days later, the group headed on his van on a very long road trip to the remote town of Alice Springs.
Upon arriving in Alice Springs, they decided to stay at his maternal aunt's house.
While at said house, Asher introduced the rest of the group to his aunt Tabitha, who he talks with in a completely different language.
"Hey, I don't understand what they're saying.", Nate said.
"Me neither, Nate. All I know is that he descends from a tribe that speaks that language.", Kenan replied.
Several minutes later, after talking with Tabitha, Asher tells everyone that his maternal family was from the Wiradjuri tribe and had fled to neighboring Indonesia after his maternal uncle's kidnapping due to his mixed background.
"So, you can speak Indonesian?", Kenan asked him.
"Ya! Saya bisa berbahasa Indonesia too, Kenan!", Asher replied to him in Indonesian.
"Alright everyone, before we head to the Outback, let's eat!", Tabitha said to everyone while serving them apple pie.
After eating the apple pie, it was time for everyone to head to the Outback on two separate vehicles: a van and a SUV.
While on the road towards the Uluru, Yasmina saw the iconic inselberg from afar.
"Guys, look! It's the Uluru!", she said to everyone on the van.
"Yeah, that's the Uluru! Let's stop our vehicles and enjoy the beautiful view around here!", Asher replied back before turning off the car engine.
Soon, everybody got out of the vehicles and saw a local guide from the Anangu tribe, who greeted them before walking them around a tour of the rock and telling them about her culture.
After spending several minutes taking photos of the Uluru and posing themselves in front of the rock, the guide accompanied the group to their vehicles, who left the surrounding area to go back on their vehicles and return to Alice Springs before leaving her behind after they paid her with cash.
Upon their return to Alice Springs, Yasmina's group parted ways with Tabitha before heading back to Asher's van, where they'll spend the next few hours on a road trip south to Adelaide, where they spent 2 days in a hotel before driving to visit his parents in Wollongong.
As soon as they arrived at his parents' house, Asher introduced the group he was accompanying throughout their trip to Australia for the past 5 days to his parents, who were more than happy to see him back with his new friends, before they let them in.
Throughout their stay at his parents' house, his mother decided to cook kangaroo meat on a grill for her family and his new friends to eat.
Soon, after everyone ate the kangaroo meat, it was time for Asher and his new friends to go surfing at a nearby beach with their swimming gears.
At the nearby beach, while Bruno and Yatomi were building sandcastles and watching Gulzar, Najwa, Eliakim and Yasmina walking near the shores together, they saw Asher teaching Yara and Nate bodyboard lessons with Kenan helping the two of them as well.
After spending time at the beach, they returned to Asher's parents' house, where Yasmina's group spent the rest of the day before they and Asher parted way with them the next day and soon, they went on a day-long road trip north to Townsville in order to explore the Great Barrier Reef.
While in Townsville, they saw a man offering boat trip services to the Great Barrier Reef.
"G'day Wesley, I would like to go on a boat trip to the Great Barrier Reef on behalf of the group that I'm currently accompanying throughout their trip to Australia.", Asher said to the man.
"Of course! I have a mate who's willing to accompany you guys on his boat.", Wesley responded, before introducing them to his friend on his boat, as they got on the boat.
Several minutes later, they made it back to shore and quickly went back to shower at the nearby hotel to wash all of the sand and seawater away.
The next morning, Asher decided to bring his van back to his parents' house in Wollongong and joined the group he was accompanying back in Townsville on a taxi before they headed to the nearby airport in order to travel to Perth.
8 hours later, upon their return in Perth, while sitting at the airport lounge, Eliakim and Yasmina saw Yara looking at the photos of her boyfriend Lael's selfie in his military uniform on her phone.
"Hey Yara, who's that guy on your phone?", Eliakim asked.
"That's my boyfriend Lael. He's actually serving in the military in Finland and we still talk to each other from time to time.", Yara answered him.
"Ah, I see. Well, good for you both.", Eliakim responded.
Suddenly, they saw Ridwan and he tells them that an anonymous individual with a secret account on social media had bought a plane ticket back to Madagascar and their home island for them on their behalf.
"Who's that dude behind the secret account?", Bruno said to Ridwan.
"I don't know his real identity and as far I can know, he posts several videos of himself wearing a black face mask while being shirtless on camera on that secret account.", Ridwan replied to him.
"Wow, I have no idea that he's living a double life as an influencer behind the scenes. As for that dude with that secret account? Thanks for buying us a plane ticket back home!", says Nate.
Several hours later, it was time for Yasmina's group to leave Australia for Madagascar.
"Asher, thanks for guiding us throughout our trip to Australia! It was nice seeing you!", Najwa said.
"Same, Najwa! By the way, before we leave, can we exchange numbers so that we can talk even if we're thousands of kilometers away?", Asher replied.
"Of course!", Najwa responded back with a smile before exchanging numbers with him, and he gifted them a boomerang and a miniature raft from his parents.
After exchanging their numbers, the two of them waved goodbye to each other before parting ways with each other due to her joining the rest of her new friends on the flight back to Madagascar, which was 5 hours behind Perth.
Upon their arrival in Madagascar, the rest of them returned to Mayotte, and soon everyone was now back home.
"So, how was your trip to Australia?", Yasmina said to her friends.
Most of them said that it was great and that they received a souvenir from Asher, which was a boomerang and a miniature raft.
"Now that we've went on a trip to Egypt, Tanzania, the Comoros and Australia, let's take a break from travelling around the world for now.", says Yara.
Everyone agreed with her and soon, they all took a break from travelling around the world for now.
Outside of the story, while xyuro was in the middle of writing the story on her computer, she started stretching her arms until she heard someone knocking on the door in the middle of the night.
She got out of the chair and walked towards the door, saying "Who's there?"
"It's me your lover Yukiya!", Yukiya replied.
Upon opening the entrance door, she saw Yukiya and they sat in the terrace of her house.
"Yukiya, there's something that I want to tell you about.", xyuro told Yukiya.
"Sure, go ahead.", he said while nodding to her.
"Actually there's no way that we can be in a relationship anymore.", she replied.
"Wait xyuro-chan, why? Why are you saying that even though we've been dating for almost 2 months now?", he panicked.
"To tell you the truth, I'm a Muslim and growing up, my parents told me and my sisters not to marry non-Muslim men when we grow up and that any man who truly loves me the most will have to ask my dad for my hand in marriage but now that I'm an adult, I don't care about that anymore.", xyuro said while feeling sad in front of him.
"Good, xyuro-chan and keep continuing that way. Even if you're Muslim or not, I'll still love you no matter what, even from the bottom of my heart.", Yukiya told xyuro while blushing at the same time.
"By the way, before we can just be friends, let's kiss each other for the last time.", xyuro replied back.
Soon, the two of them began kissing each other for the last time.
After they were done kissing each other, xyuro and Yukiya hugged each other goodbyes before parting ways with each other.
The next morning, xyuro woke up to a text message from Yukiya on her phone.
"It's sad that we broke up last night, but I'm glad that we can still be friends and talk to each other from time to time!"
She replied to the text message with "That's great, Yukiya-kun." before moving on with her day and proceeded to publish the rest of the episode.
Later that day, xyuro received a call from Asher telling her about the story he saw online and asking her about what happened between her and Yukiya, to which she tells him that the two of them broke up with each other due to her parents' restrictions on her and her sisters' romantic partners and religious differences.
"Wow, I have some words to say about your parents, but geez, they need to realize that you don't have to be with a man from the same religion as you.", he said.
"Same, but glad I still managed to be friends with Yukiya.", xyuro responded.
"That's great.", Asher told her.
"By the way, there are plenty of men out there, so it's never too late to date someone new.", Asher responded.
After spending a few hours on the phone, the two of them had a good laugh before ending the phone call.
xyuro then thought to herself "Now that this is all over, let's see what this secret account guy's up to these days..."
She then looked up the man with the secret account and found some of his videos on social media before reaching out to him through email.
After talking with her through several emails, he agreed to meet up with her near a local pizzeria, but little did he know, this long-awaited encounter would lead to his secrets being revealed.
Will xyuro somehow manage to reveal the hidden secrets of this mysterious man with the secret account who bought Yasmina and her friends a plane ticket to Madagascar on their last day in Australia? Find out next time in Hadithi ya Alfajiri Safi!
