Dreams of Old Bums
Episode 22
And when the time came to go to Muara Tanjung, the entourage of the Foundation of the Generation of Nations led by Kang Suganda, set out on two boats, he said, one boat is commonly used by Wiranta and the other is deliberately rented, from a boat entrepreneur. Kang Suganda who represented the Foundation, accompanied by four teachers, used a chartered boat. Among the teachers, one was Herna's daughter
mr. Danu. They departed from Rawamutu village, about six in the morning. And arrive at the headland estuary, just before the ashar prayer. Finished the ashar prayers there, they were accepted by the natives. After passing through Maghrib and Isya, a new event began, and after going through several speeches, then the time came for Kang Suganda to convey a religious message. And at the end of the lecture Kang Suganda did not forget to review about his activities at the Nurul Bahari pesantren, which was shaded by the Bina Bangsa Foundation. And after he finished delivering his lecture, Kang Suganda invited the audience to ask questions around pesantrenan. The event lasted about an hour. The results of Kang Suganda's visit with the group, quite encouraging, many of the parents who want to leave their sons and daughters. Of course, making Kang Suganda and his friends feel proud, and they promised to try to be trustworthy, carrying out their duties to deliver the hope of parents. The next day Kang Suganda and his entourage depart from Muara Tanjung Market, the same as when departing from Rawa Mutu Village, which is six in the morning. But previously Kang Sukanda told wiranta to shop for fish first, he said for souvenirs. And after everything was done, the new Foundation troupe, immediately departed. But Kang Suganda and Dipa are now exchanging rides, Kang Suganda said there is something he wants to talk to his sister. Of course Dipa initially somewhat objected, she felt embarrassed by the teachers especially by
Herna. But eventually Dipa accepted as well. Dipa and Herna sat in the back near the driver, while the other teachers sat in front of him, but a bit tenuous so as not to hinder the view of the driver. Boats cruised along the coastline of the island. Mulannya Dipa and Herna both mute like there is nothing to talk about, but When the two accidentally met a look, suddenly their faces changed suddenly.
“Kang Dipa let's chat time lost as the wind.” Suddenly Mr. Soni, teasing Dipa.
“By Pak” welcome Dipa with smile.
“Losing time with Mr. Ilham and Bu neti.” Said Mr. Soni again while glancing at Mr. Ilham and Bu Neti, they are husband and wife.
Herna's face looked red, while Dipa just laughed a little. At such times, Dipa was very reminded of Mr. Dasim's words about the language of love. Love can be likened to a bridge, which will bring together two different ports of heart. Will the two ports be united? Of course it can be provided that the two ports are connected by love which functions as a bridge. Which becomes a question
Dipa is, is there love in her? and heart? It was too early to ask about that. And if there is, will it be able to answer the next demands. I don't know this is a world where everything is fake.
“Bu Herna where does her voice” Canda Pak Soni keeps teasing.
“There!” Shouted Herna while glancing towards Dipa.
“Chat yuk, so as not to be Tempted by Mr. Soni.” Suddenly Herna's voice started a conversation.
“Oh yes chat what yah?” Tanya Dipa was a bit nervous.
“Well chat anything, the important thing is not tempted by Mr. Soni!” Herna said with a smile, so that there were dimples on both cheeks.
“He he he Good, can Dik Herna explain the ark that we are riding on, with the facts of life that we will meet later?” Dipa asked, while her eyes looked at the boundless ocean.
“Actually Herna can answer Kang Dipa's question after we get to the destination.” Herna Resolute.
“Loh why should later?” Dipa was surprised not to understand the meaning of Herna.
“If answered now it is an answer that is only lips and thoughts, which in fact has not happened, therefore it is likely to give an opportunity to argue, but if the answer, later after arriving there, then, it is an answer of conscience, that is, an answer that contains honesty, because the reality that occurs along with the evidence of recognition given by the trip itself, so that there is no need to argue, so that actually there is no need to argue, unless you just want to make it up.” Tukas herna, making Dipa stunned, at first did not expect that herna's answer would be so.
“Kang Dipa is not his poetic problem, but his serious problem” Firm Herna. “We must be conscious by experience, not conscious by torment.”
“What's the difference?” Tanya Dipa was curious.
“If we are conscious by experience, we still have time to do, but if we are conscious by torture, we have no time to do, or it is too late.
“Hm now I'm starting to know who you really are.” Dipa
“Who come?” Asked Herna while glancing.
“Akang can answer the question sister, but later after we arrive at the destination” Tukas Dipa.
“Aduh...” Now herna was rolling her eyes. And almost his hand pinched.
“Nah so hehehe.” Suddenly Mr. Soni's voice was heard.
“Ah could have been Mr. soni.” Shouted Dipa.
The blue ocean stretches out without boundaries. Giving the meaning of the story is never endless curious, for every creature who wants to try to understand the meaning of life. Indeed, everything needs science and patience, when faced with the reality of life that everything stretches without limits, while humans have limitations, but humans do not realize that he has limitations. It means that anything faced by us now at first glance seems mediocre, but if memorized or contemplated by a clear mind, as well as the deepest honesty of the heart, everything does not seem simple or ordinary, but anything in this world is actually very complex and very mysterious. Like what happened to Dipa and Mr. Dasim, with all his hopes and wishes at a glance, for Dipa and Mr. Dasim there is no problem, they can already be worthy. But when connected with their ideals, who want to set up a youth park, with a myriad of problems, obstacles and obstacles that must be faced, especially facing the petty assumption about teenagers, with a myriad of problems, obstacles and obstacles that must be faced, they assume what to argue about teenagers, yet they are living enjoying their time. So that anything that was imagined by Mr. Dasim considered to be making it up. So it is still very far to say finished, the journey is still very long, clumpy and steep. Also with the condition Dipa is now facing the transition period, the transition from her teenage nature to adulthood. For example, he must be faced with the need to demand for a household, which is just to adapt, following generally the life that is now underway, for him it is easy to just say whatever is stored in his heart, he said, also stay frankly on Herna's parents, Mang Danu, that he was interested in his daughter, namely Herna, about how it would be later, the important thing is to make the process. But not so, not so at all.
“Kang Dipa daydreaming yah” Suddenly Herna voice broke the silence.
“Betul! Kang Dipa is daydreaming.” Dipa Sahut.
“However is Kang Dipa?” Herna asked while looking at Dipa's face.
Just now Dipa was about to answer, suddenly there was a cry of Wiranta's voice telling him to rest first, stop at a fish auction market. So there is no problem of boats boarded by Dipa, immediately docked following the boat boarded by Wiranta. All the passengers finally went down through the stairs that have been provided. And then the group stopped first at the rice stall for lunch. The atmosphere of lunch
in that place, very inviting impression, especially for Herna and Dipa. Both are deliberately given the discretion to get to know each other more closely, although still, both maintain the ethics of politeness values.
After eating, they stopped at the mosque to do the sublime prayer. And after they relaxed for a moment, enjoying the atmosphere of a beautiful beach and beautiful, then the group, immediately returned to their respective boats. And then the group resumed their journey.
