Tuuuuuut..... Jessjessjess.....
The sound of a passing train, welcoming the morning.
The distance of Ami house with Tulungagung Station is only 500 meters. So that it sounds clear if there is a train that stops or just crosses.
With alarm he went out of the house sharpening his senses of vision and hearing. His eyes peeked around the courtyard of the house, including the house of Mbak Anti (left side) and bulik Tumiyem (right side). Feeling safe, Ami also said goodbye to raise his voice.
"Buuuuk, Ami!" shouted Ami, immediately ran out the gate of the yard of the house. Bu Widji who was arranging the bed just shook his head without stopping from his activities.
"along, buk... Ami's gone to?" Ask the elder while rubbing his hair in a towel. Usually he who drove Ami to school, because one major ride a bicycle.
"Yes, he said buru" said the mother.
"Tumben.." Usi's gum.
In addition to Mr. Soemany's simplest house, also stands a half-timbered wall house owned by Anti's parents.
While the luxurious house among the three is the house of Tumiyem mother who is the son of the principal and has a husband of a navy. The house has a wall that has 4 bedrooms and a bathroom inside, although the habya live alone. Her husband rarely came home because of work and they have not been given a baby, this often makes him feel lonely.
On the paved path, Ami stopped running with a gasp of breath. Feeling safe, he continued the journey by adjusting the breath. He remembered the incident last night and thought about how to reduce activities at home.
Ami realized, she left too early. He continued to walk towards the shocked market, which was one way to his school. Because around there is a neighbor bu Bardiyah selling rice pecel.
With the experience of eating banana side dish rice, Ami took the initiative to find a little income. Because he knew, with his very young age and status as a student it was impossible to find a job.
More than 1KM away, finally Ami arrived at Kopi stalls and Nasi bu Bardiyah.
The usual bustling stall of shoppers was seen off, 'this is a chance to talk on
mom Yah' thought.
"For ma'am Yah.." said Ami when entering the stall. He immediately sat on the only bench facing directly with Bardiyah ma'am.
Bu Bardiyah who was wiping the banana leaves then looked up the head. Look who's coming and smile.
"Yes ma'am yeah, I have a need. Um... Can I help you with the sale, ma'am? oru.... just help me clean up..?" Tanya Ami ventured.
Ma'am well slightly tilted her head and asked “Do you want to work? You are still in school, nduk." he said while concocting pecel rice on top of the mince.
Lashing
"Yes mom, I can help you when you get home from school." Sahut Ami, along with the arrival of 2 buyers. Ami shifted allowing the two men to sit down, half nodding his head in greeting.
"Chipper 2 eat here, lek Yah" said one of them.
Pinchpick
"Yes, siyaaap.." sahut bu Bardiyah, then turned towards Ami. "You come home from school and change your clothes and tell your mom if you want to help me out. Now breakfast first." he said while giving rice pecel to Ami.
Ami accepted it hesitantly and continued to see the look on Bardiyah's face, but her eyes seemed to say 'It's okay, it's geratis'...
"Thanks ma'am Well" said ami, smiling widely.

author note:
there may be some readers who are not familiar with the following few words, but here I explain again.
The market is shocked, that is the impromptu market. It may consist of only a few sellers, or it may be many. There are also so many buyers that it looks like a market.
The lash can be with teak leaves, rice paper or other materials in the form of triangular cones. But in general we use banana leaves.
