Their lives are very poor.

So poor they often do not eat two days a day because they do not have money to buy food.

However, they do not complain and remain patient in life.

One day, Patience and Patience asked Bu to borrow money from his brother, Bu Mellas.

“Bu, try borrowing money from Ms. Mellas. We have not eaten for two days.” Patience told his wife.

“Alright Sir, I'm going to Ms. Mellas' house to borrow money.” said Bu Patience. He then went to Ms. Mellas' house.

Upon arrival at Ms. Mellas' house, Ms. Patience immediately expressed her request to borrow money from Ms. Mellas.

“Bu Mellas, look lo, we have not eaten for two days. Please lend us a hundred or two hundred rupiah to buy food.”

“Oh alright. This is one hundred rupiahs only.” said Ms. Mellas.

“Thank you Mrs Mellas for her help.” Ms. Sabar thanked Ms. Mellas and then she went home.

Patience then went home.

On the way, he met the man who was dragging a dog.

Patience felt sorry for the dog.

“Why with the dog? Why are you dragging?” ask the patient to that person.

“This dog is my pet but I want to throw it away. It can only eat. Can't keep the house.” replied the person.

“Aduh don't be thrown away pity. Let me just buy a hundred rupiah how?” said Ma Patience.

The man agreed to sell his dog to Bu Sabar for a hundred rupiah.

Patience then took the dog home.

“Where is the loan money from bu Mellas dik? Whose dog did you bring that to?” ask husband.

“Lending money from Mellas' mother as much as a hundred rupiah I bought this dog. Pity this dog wants to be thrown out by the owner so I just buy it.” ka Bu Patience.

“Yes it's okay. Just put the dog under the breach.”

Patar sir is not angry even though they have no money.

The dog was then placed under the ground.

It just barked and was not fed or drank.

“Bu, borrow some more money from Ms. Mellas to buy some food. We have to eat.” said Patient Sir.

Patience then went back to Ms. Mellas' house to borrow money.

Ms. Mellas then lent her a hundred rupiah.

Back, on the way home, Patience Mom saw someone dragging a cat.

“You want the cat dragged around? Kan pity.” asked Bu Patience.

“Oh this cat I will throw away because I often steal fish.” said the person.

Feeling sorry for her, Patience then offered to buy the cat.

“Already, rather than you waste pity, the cat I just bought for a hundred rupiah how?”

The man agreed to sell his cat for a hundred rupiahs.

So Miss Patience came home without money but with the cat.

Upon arrival at home, Ms. Sabar told her husband that a loan from Ms. Mellas of a hundred rupiahs had been spent to buy a cat.

“So on the street I pity to see a cat about to be dumped by its owner. So I just bought it with borrowed money from Bu Mellas.”

“Ya already, it's okay.” replied her husband patiently.

At night, Patience woke her husband up to take him to pee.

When he came out of the series, Ms. Patience saw a strange object that was round and shining.

“Pack what is that round thing shining.” Bu said Patience to her husband.

Let's try the magic.” said her husband.

They then arranged the glowing round object with incense.

Then they asked for money and gold.

It's magical! A lot of money and gold.

Both of them were joyous beyond measure.

With the money and gold they can buy a lot of food.

Embrace the idea to make another similar thing.

So each of Patience and Patience can use that magical object.

So they went to the goldsmith Akhmad.

After negotiating, they finally agreed that the goldsmith Akhmad would make a replica of the magic object at a cost of fifty thousand rupiah with a long workmanship for one week.

The original cat was given to the goldsmith Akhmad as an example.

Go home, Patience and Patience Ma'am to the house.

One week later, Patience came to the goldsmith Akhmad to retrieve the fake cat's magic item and the original.

After getting the two magic objects, Patience immediately went home and gave it to Patience.

They both then tried the two magic objects by asking for money and gold.

But nothing happened.

Both are confused.

Apparently the original cat's magic item was kept by the goldsmiths of the akhmad and exchanged for an imitation.

The cat peeked out from behind the door.

The cat felt sorry for his master who was tricked by the goldsmith Akhmad.

The cat then invites the Dog to pick up his magic at the Akhmad goldsmith's house.

Arriving at the house of the goldsmith Akhmad, a mouse appeared.

The cat immediately catches the rat and threatens it to eat it.

The mouse begged for mercy and promised to help him take his magic.

The mouse then invites his friends to hole the coffin of the goldsmith Akhmad.

After a large hole, the dog barked loudly to lure the goldsmith Akhmad out.

The goldsmith Akhmad was angry and came out to drive away the dog.

It was at this point that the cat quickly picked up his magical item.

On the way home, the dog dropped the cat's magic object into the river and then he ran away.

The cat is angry with the behavior of the dog but he can not do anything.

Finally the cat can only wait under the leaves.

Suddenly a turn.

The cat cat caught the turn and threatened him to eat it.

Belekok begs for mercy on the cat and promises that he will help the cat.

So the beggar was told to take a round object glittering at the bottom of the river.

Without difficulty, the melekok managed to take the cat's magic object from the bottom of the river and then handed it to the cat.

The cat, of course, felt very happy and immediately went home to his master.

Arriving at his employer's house, the cat immediately handed the magical object to Pak Sabar and Bu Sabar who was in the foyer at the time.

They were both very happy that the magical thing had been found.

Since then the lives of Patience and Patience have never been short of money.

Cats are loved by Patience and Patience, while dogs never return to their owners' homes.
