Chapters 10. Debt Charged



As usual before the dawn of the prayer reverberate, Teguh was awake from the contest. The first thing he did was start a fire to cook. She skillfully cooked rice and fried eggs. It was the menu he cooked the most. Besides being easy to do, frying eggs also does not take much time.


Look at his son who is still asleep. Ayus.. For school, his son was not ashamed to use a simple sling bag, shoes that he sewed his own soles. Ayu also never pegged should be given an allowance of several thousand for snacks in school. Three thousand rupiahs and bringing his own supplies from home is enough for him.


After completing his task in the kitchen, Teguh then woke Ayu to morning prayers. Sometimes Nur's shadow flashed at a time like this. Nur breathed his last while performing the morning prayers with him. But, the thought was replaced if you see the innocent face of Ayu who can always divert her world.


After all was done, as usual Teguh prepared to take Ayu to go to school. But, he was shocked by the loud knock ahead there. The door almost collapsed if he didn't rush out of the house.


"Yes Allah ma'am Saodah.. What's wrong mom?" He approached his barbarian guests.


"What's up? When did you pay off your debts, Guh? How much do you know you don't want to pay? It's like you don't have a mind, debt is brought to death!! You know that Guh?!" Hardik bu Saodah.


"Astaghfirullah's... Yes, I know that debt is brought to death. Very know. It was not my intention to go and not pay the debt to Ms. Saodah but, now this job is quiet again ma'am. If there's money, it's paid." Firmly said frankly.


"When do people like you have money, huh? This is the loss of lending the same person to your kayak. Many reasons! Want the money, turn to pay tarlu tarlu teroos! No valuables in your house make it a guarantee again!! I'm losing!!" Ma Saodah shook her head violently. Dizzied his head knowing that the money would be long back.


"Mr.. Ayu's afraid.." Said Ayu who had just put her shoes on. He stood behind Teguh who was currently getting a look of dislike by Saodah's mother.


"Fear afraid!! What do you think I'm a demit? You're a fucking brat! That's your father asking for a real job so he can pay all his debts just like me! Not his son did his father make my head want to explode!" While widening the eyes of ma'am Saodah stared fiercely at Ayu. Ask to be plugged like this one mother's eyes.


"Dye.. Let's finish the books first." Teguh said to his daughter so as not to be influenced by words not to be heard by children of Ayu's age.


"This is Guh.. I'm tired of asking you to keep kayak gini. Dapet money is not, there makes my tension more up for many reasons that you love." Ms. Saodah exhaled a rough breath.


"Sell this land, you can use the money later to cover your debts." Said the original Saodah.


"If this land is sold and Ayu and I will live where Saodah's mother is? I must've paid off my debt to Saodah's mom. But not now."


Ma'am Saodah's gone. Ayu's turn now approached his father with a slow step.


"Sir.. father many debts huh? You were so angry.." Tanya Ayu who also looked at the departure of Saodah.


Firmly smile. Not a smile of excitement, just want to cover his chaotic mood due to being charged with debt early in the morning by Saodah ma'am.


"The same pencil book has entered Yu's bag?" Tanya Teguh diverted the conversation. He did not want his son to think about the burden of his debt. "Setting to school now is nduk."


Ayu didn't protest much. Not wanting to ask too much, his father must have been dizzy because of the noise earlier. Ayu immediately nodded obediently to her father's invitation.


Not many children have high sensitivity. But, Ayu is one of the children who is sensitive to the surrounding circumstances. He knew that something was not okay with his family's economic situation. What can he do to help his father? That's what Ayu's thinking right now.


"Sir.. Ayu do not have to give pocket money. Bring rice with you to drink from home. Lagian Ayu is also rarely snacked. Said the teacher better bring provisions, rather than snack carelessly. It will hurt the stomach." Ayu said breaking the silence.


"Why Yu? I also don't give a lot of pocket money. Taken yes, make your snack." Teguh said while putting Ayu's pocket money into her sling bag.


"Sir.this is for you, to pay the debt. Ayu did not want you to be scolded by the bulek again. Ayu also now will not ask for anything else sir." With innocence money that was only three thousand rupiah was taken from his bag and handed over to his father again.


Steady fixated here. That little boy could think about his problem.


"The pinter school. Learn the real thing. Ayu did not need to think about the talk of the bulek earlier, it was the business of the father. Your job is nduk.. The school! As long as you are strong, you are still there, you will try to nyekolahin you as high as possible, so that your life is not like your father. Could be much better.." Said Teguh rather stammered.


Ayu saw the netra glazed over. He didn't know that his father was holding himself back so as not to drop his tears through his cheeks.
