Horizons

Episode 3

Khanzas

I never thought I would be dumped into a remote area like this same bokap my own bladder. Yes, even if I think it's my own fault. Shame the family again. So my bokap was included in the ranks of high-ranking officers of the TNI AD, Major General Bakti Wiraguna. When there is a razzia and sweeping combined TNI-POLRI in Jakarta, I can still cool the dugem in one of the famous night entertainment venues. At the heboh dong son of the mere wayangnya Pak Major General Bakti Wiraguna, the most respected person and used as an example of all TNI soldiers in Indonesia Raya, was not becus ngurus child. Can you shadow my face when I'm stuck? Oh, not again. Really serem. Ever seen an angry army commander? Ever scolded by yourself? Well join aja tuh, scolded bokap himself who incidentally is a commander. If I am an ice cube, it has melted and evaporated unceremoniously.

"You Papa went all the way to Jakarta to become a doctor but instead put the family to shame!"

I'm not picking. Udah mewek want to cry but if I cry Papa even more up his emotions.

"You want to be what you are! The girls do not know the place. Have you ever taught me how to like that? Answer!"

I shook my head while holding back sobs, "No Pa. Sorry. sorryin Khanza" I replied.

"Papa is dizzy with your behavior. Not just once twice do you embarrass Papa"

Yes, I am a wayward. When I was in school I was a subscription called teacher BK, the problem of skipping, fighting with the class sister was, just a teacher, anyway complete package deh. I wonder if I could be a doctor now.

"Father gave up on your behavior. Tomorrow, Papa marry you to your daughter Papa!"

I'm dong. Is it good, did I live in the days of Siti Nurbaya? Especially who wants to be married to me is a very Mami child. Rank may be colonel, but if the same cockroaches fly aja ngacir, how can I entrust the future of my children?

Atambua, the capital of Belu district, East Nusa Tenggara. It is the second largest city on the island of Timor. The population is multi-ethnic from the tribes of Timor, Rote, Sabu, Flores and a small part of Chinese. Wonderful, why are ethnic Chinese still found in the most invisible point even on the face of the earth? Not only in the north pole there are also ethnic Chinese.

Atambua comes from the word 'ata' which means servant and 'buan' which means suanggi. It is said that this area was used by the kings as a dumping ground for the suanggis who disturbed the community. A kind of Nusa Kambangan dong? Huh huh? Okay Khanzha, be classy. Just because they're descendants of troublemakers doesn't mean they're bad people, right? Let's be positive. His mind is positive Khanza, don't test it.

From Jakarta I flew to Kupang accompanied by Regina Prameswari, or what I called mbak Egi. Ma'am Egi is a special female security member who is assigned the same bokap I make as a bodyguard who intilin me everywhere. Given my bokap position in government is very risky against security threats, so the government gives special treatment to ensure the safety of Mr. Mayor and his family. I'm actually really intilined everywhere just like people carry a gun. But my father made it, he did not want to take any more risks.

When I was one year old, I became the commander of the security forces in Ambon. Due to the instability of the government, there was a public uprising and brutal shootings carried out by state vandals. The TNI headquarters were burned, its inhabitants were stone-throwed and glass bottles. Though in the headquarters it is only children and wives who are always loyal to accompany her husband. That's them. Some of the soldiers who were given the mandate to secure the headquarters were overwhelmed after the fire spread everywhere.

I caught in the escort some soldiers brought me who was a baby to save myself. He didn't bring anything. Just a thick blanket wrapped around my body so I don't get cold. But fateful, in the middle of the road my group was attacked with a barrage of shots. Killed several people overhauled including nyokap. I was rescued by my ex-driver and taken to a jungle hideout for three days, before the situation finally subsided and we were found.

Since then I have always been overprotective. Everywhere there are always subordinates who take care of me. But so bad I used to, many who could not stand and resign as my bodyguard. Only Egi survived until now. I have worked many times to let him give up. But he's not the one who gives up, but I'm the one who gives up. It's hard to make this female tiger.

From El Tari Airport in Kupang, we take a Wings Air propeller plane to AA Bere Tallo Airport, Atambua. Before being picked up by special forces to an army barracks on the border, I was the same as Egi nginep at the Matahari hotel, one of the most famous hotels in this small town. Yes even though the quality is still below three star hotels.

His name is Khanza. Can't be mistaken if you don't know mbak Egi. Because of that, I ran away from the hotel room while I was taking a shower. My phone died so he couldn't track. After that I went melanglang buana, want to know the place of ajib-ajib ala Nusa Tenggara, about different far not yes the same in Jakarta. Mumpung I can still haha hihi, try if you have arrived at the border later, want haha hihi same who? A crocodile?
