Morning sunlight slipped between the cracks of the bamboo booth wall and the heat through the window curtains, the glare began to be felt into the room where Rena restrained.

"Ughh.." murmured Rena opened her eyelids, briefly looking at the ceiling of the room then she revealed the curtains so that sunlight and fresh air entered the room.

It had been a week that Rena was at Bi Parijah's house, and on the first day Bi Parijah brought Rena to report her arrival, that the former village midwife would be living together with her, now Rena began to feel comfortable living with her former ART, and her mental state was getting better.

Rena came out of her bedroom, the creaking of her footsteps sounded quite loud in the middle room of the house on stage, she also continued to step to the very back, because she did not see Bi Parijah there, she continued to walk, then go down the stairs and go to a place where there are so many cooking utensils.

Because there was no Bi Parijah who seemed to go to the garden, Rena was about to light a furnace to cook something, she saw that there were some eggs still left and salted fish, fortunately her tongue was not too shocked, because he once ate the fish while still helping Umi Kinan first.

"Assynoltom... Non, non Rena, where you are," exclaimed Bi Ijah who had just come, calling him.

"Waalaikum... Rena in the kitchen Bi," said Rena who slightly increased the volume of her voice.

"Eh, what else is Non?" ask Bi Ijah.

"Sorry Bi, Rena did something rude, because she pretended to try cooking in her kitchen, Auntie" said Rena.

"Nothing Non, now this house is also the residence of Non Rena, so do not be too stiff and shy" said Bi Parijah smiling gently, because now he has a conversation partner.

"Bi's out of this Auntie wants to do something again?" rena asked after they had finished their last feed.

"There are no other activities, why?" timpal Bi Parijah and asked back.

"It's okay sich Bi, but Rena is not good if just a ride to eat the same sleep doang or gini aja dech if tomorrow Bibi goes to the field Rena follow ya, Rena want to help aunty," he said he advised himself to help Bi Parijah.

"Non, it's shubuh," cried Bi Parijah.

"Iya Bi," said Rena who immediately woke up from her bed when she heard the call of Bi Parijah, then she immediately took water wudhi to pray.

"Eat this was Non, itung-itung to ngeganjel stomach, because we there will be uncertain when the completion, can be faster or maybe before the time of Dzuhur," said Bi Ijah while offering a urab of cassava and warm sweet tea.

After sipping her warm sweet tea and finishing the cassava urab, Rena followed Bi Ijah down the rice field to the fields close to the hill.

The road to the garden began to be crowded even though the sun had not yet appeared fully, the morning dew was still hugging the leaves and the morning air felt piercing the skin, but for Bi Ijah and the residents of Tegal Bungur village it is common.

After arriving at the banana garden adjacent to the foothills, Bi Ijah took out tools such as cleaver and sickle from the sack he was carrying.

And started slashing some banana midribs for the leaves, while Rena was still paying attention to what Bi Parijah was doing.

"Let's not fold the banana leaves that have been separated from the breaker, so that it can be taken to the garden as well as the mengul," he said told Rena and she also swiftly helped tidy it up.

They also walked back to slash the next weatherman even to the middle of the hill and after it was felt quite a lot, they went back down to hand the results of taking banana leaves to the owner of the garden.
