Warm morning sunlight, blend into one with the breeze. Kevin was enjoying the atmosphere of his morning in the village, for a very long time he did not enjoy the beautiful atmosphere like this. The last time was when Almarhumah Mama Luciana and Papa Basuki took her to the villa.
Khaira had just come out the back door of the house, she saw her husband seemed to enjoy the breezy and warm sunshine of this sunny morning.
His prickly nature came out, when he saw the catfish pond. Khaira walks by sneaking up to Kevin, but is not surprised even though he walks does not make a sound. Kevin turned around and surprised her.
It was not Kevin who splashed, but instead Khaira himself who splashed into the greenish water.
"Ohama!!!" Khaira exclaimed not cheerfully, but aghast when she was now wallowing.
Kevin laughed in a giggle. "Haha...." Kevin felt his stomach was very tickling to see his wife's sometimes absurd behavior.
"Mas Kevin!" Khaira splashed water at Kevin who was constantly laughing at him.
Kevin's reflexes avoid the greenish splashes of water Khaira does.
"What, your people first will want my jahilin. Haha hit the stone, it's a weapon to eat sir!" Kevin was constantly laughing.
Khaira was upset about his actions to punish Kevin even he got his karma. Khaira put on a hardened face, then extended her hand. "Beliminate ride?"
Khaira's hand is outstretched. Kevin shook his head, "No, your intention is to pull me inside the dam, right?"
Khaira snorted in annoyance. "No!" sergeant.
Kevin squinted his eyes at his wife who was wallowing in the dam. Instead of approaching Khaira, Kevin turned around. When he was just a step away from the padang, his ears heard Khaira scream.
"Mas Kevin!!!" khaira shouted loudly, seeing Kevin instead walk away from the padang.
Kevin smiled broadly, he turned around. It was not his intention to just leave his wife. Kevin just wanted to test Khaira's patience a little bit. "Yes, yeah.."
Kevin reached out his hand, and was greeted by Khaira's hand. Because the slippery padang edge makes his legs slip and finally he fell into the dam. "Aahh really asem!"
Now it was Khaira's turn to laugh crisply to make him spin around. "Now, I'm not just interested in Mas Kevin, in the end, Mas Kevin fell into the dam too haha."
"Review you.." Kevin carried his wife's body, because his feet were submerged in mud and made it difficult to walk, as a result Kevin and Khaira fell to make both of them bathed in buffalo-like mud.
"Mas Kevin! I'm like a buffalo like this." Khaira stood up and revealed her face and body that were filled with mud. Unintentionally, as his eyes circulated he saw a fruitful mango tree making his saliva collect in his mouth. "I want to make mangoes."
"Do you see what?" Kevin saw his wife's face turn silent. Then he made him follow the direction where Khaira looked, and he saw a mango that was like waving in the wind.
"Kevin's mom I want young mango, it's like it's delicious when it's the same dish as a bean." Khaira yawned her lips, as if saliva had already dripped. Then look at each other with Kevin's eyes.
"No problem, we'll pick up. But before that, because we've been stuck in the dam, you teach me to catch the catfish." said Kevin lightly, while in the village he wanted to do more activities far from technology.
"Yes?" Khaira looked at Kevin with sparkling eyes, and swallowed her saliva.
Kevin nodded small. "Ready."
Khaira saw Kevin seemed very enthusiastic, even though her husband's whole body was filled with mud, until all the hairs were muddy. Hair for the purpose, if the hair down is certain, lha why is it the matter of hair?
"Awas Mas is the fish." exclaimed Khaira pointed at the catfish which was like mocking him.
Hap! Kevin uses a small net to nimbly catch a catfish passing in front of him.
"Can!" Kevin was excited when his fish caught him.
Abah just came out of the back door of the house, maniknya see the behavior of children and son-in-law who was like a child until Abah was not aware. Abah laughed interspersed with tears dripping in the wrinkles of her wrinkled eyes. That's what Abah feels like to see his son happy.
After cleaning up. Now Khaira is cooking catfish she caught with Kevin. The menu she cooked was quite simple. Fried catfish, along with lalapan and sambal goreng typical Lamongan, and do not forget tempe and tofu, which has always been the prima donna of Indonesia.
Eat the food menu in its style, and see the harmony of his daughter's new household as long as this corn. Makes Abah feel overwhelmed. “Son, may Allah always protect your household from temptations and trials.”
Seeing his brother just silent made Khaira ask.
"Would you like to add more?”
Abah just shook his head, while looking down to hide his tears that had urged his old neutrals.
"I miss the family atmosphere like gini." muttered Kevin, on the sidelines. For almost six years, no family warmth was felt. Eventually, it turns into a freeze.
Khaira looked at Kevin with a taste of haru. Enjoying lunch on a mat-floated couch behind the house, with a natural view of the surroundings.
Lunch together has passed, now is the time to return to the next activity. Abah is ready to bring a bucket and wear his camping hat.
"Change to go to the rice field" Abah said seeing Khaira and Kevin still sitting casually on the couch behind the house.
"Yes, looking for kiong mas. If you don't pick up kiong mas, it can damage the rice crops."
"I'm coming with Bah." exclaimed Kevin enthusiastically.
"Lho Mas, he said he wanted to pick a mango?" khaira reminded.
"Eh yes, but I want to go to the rice fields like what the hell nyari kiong, you know for yourself in the city there is no activity of this kind."
"Based on the town boy!" khaira gave up. "Yes I've been to the fields." Khaira takes two camping hats and gives one to Kevin who looks happy.
Can not refuse, finally Abah agreed, the desire of the two people who had prepared to go to the rice field, did not forget to lock the door. Khaira and Kevin are on their own bicycles, while Abah is on her own.
Of course, many pairs of eyes that pay attention to Kevin who is pedaling an ontel bike. His beautiful face, inevitably caused polemics and gossip from those who saw it.
While Khaira just ducked all the way he hugged Kevin, because Khaira knew. He is being rumored something that is clearly not true aka slander. Khaira kept her head down all the way through the village road until heading towards the rice field road. Khaira recalls quotations from the Prophet's companions; ali ibn Abi Talib RA. "Don't tell anyone about yourself, because people who like you don't need that. And the one who hates you doesn't believe that."
One of the people staring at Khaira was Asep. This man stopped the speed of his motorbike to make sure that what he saw was right. If it was Khaira, the girl he loved came home from the city with a man. "So it's true that rumors are sounding that Khaira has returned?"
Crumpled his heart, intending today to play to Abah's house to ensure the news circulating. However, because he had seen Khaira berboncangkan with a man, making Asep undo his intentions.
Abah parked his bike on the side of the rice field road. Netra Abah immediately looked at the rice field she rented from the head of the hamlet.
Kevin also parked his bike, after Khaira got off the bat. But there was another when he saw the face of his wife who looked unhappy.
"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
"I don't like hearing their talk to me, I don't get pregnant out of wedlock, I'm not an adulterer, and I don't disappoint Abah with disgrace. But the words of those who don't know my own problems judge me, as if I'm disgusting" Khaira said. His heart was very sad and broke his mood with the gossip he heard two days ago he returned to the village.
Abah rubbed the back of her daughter's head which was currently covered in the army's green hijab. "The tongue of the reasonable man is at the back of his heart, while the heart of the fool is at the back of his tongue" Abah turns to look at Kevin. "and tyranny will continue to exist, not because of the multitude of wicked men. However, because of the silence of good people. It is not the advice of Abah, but the advice of Ali ibn Abi Talib RA, the friend of the Prophet." he continued to give advice that would strengthen the heart of his daughter who was distraught when she heard the scorn of those who did not understand the truth.
"Know the truth, you will know the righteous. True is not measured by his people, but man is measured by truth.Ali ibn Abi Talib" Abah took a bucket for a kiong container.
"Have not listened to them, later if they are tired they must be talking about us. Especially if we've returned to the city, we won't hear the words of those who tend to torture the heart." Kevin rubbed his wife's back.
"Keep if we go back to the city, Abah how?" Khaira looked at Abah and looked back at Kevin.
"Don't think about it, we'll find kiong first. Later Abah rice winih was eaten by the shelled animals."
Abah began to look for kiong mas, which became a source of fragility of the roots of rice plants. Helped by Kevin and Khaira, Kevin felt like an adventurous boy.
"Let's race?" kevin said, take Khaira for the race.
"What race?" tanya Khaira, who was standing in the middle of a rice crop not far from Kevin.
"The race, who has the most kiong mas, will be able to doorprize." Kevin bargained, and was greeted with a nod.
"What's the door prize?" ask Khaira, wondering what prize Kevin has to offer, if he wins.
"Eat Kiong mas as much, haha" said Kevin laughed out loud.
"Devit me." - Sergeant Khaira, refused Kevin's offer.
Abah shook his head,
"Kiong mas, where to eat."
Kevin looked surprised. "Why can't Bah eat it?" kevin didn't know.
"Huuuu.. Kota's son, his knowledge is only discotheque!" ledek Khaira, make Kevin widen his eyes.
"Actually, Kiongmas can be eaten, as long as the processing is correct. Moreover remove the poison contained in the stomach." continued Abah, explained.
"If it's not thrown away, why Bah?" ask Kevin, like a child who asks about IPA PR.
Khaira just sighed, though,
"If not yes can be poisoning, abdominal pain, shortness of breath, or can be more severe prolonged diarrhea." explains Khaira, Kevin looks thin mangosteen, a sign her husband understood.
"Oh that." Kevin answered understand.
In the afternoon, Abah went home first. Kevin demanded an ontel bike, while Khaira went hand in hand to equalize Kevin's steps. Enjoying the atmosphere of twilight in the village is very different from in the city.
But the journey of Khaira and Kevin must be stopped when Ucok and Toha and Bonar who stood at the back.
"Khaira.." said Bonar.
Khaira chuckles her eyes wide when she sees Uncle bengek blocking his way, but Khaira retreats and hides behind Kevin.
Seriate...
