Chapter 2 Chapter 11: Beautiful Cockroach Beach



The Insur alarm clock shows at four in the morning. The air seemed so cold that it slipped into the sheath that Insur used instead of the blanket. He shivered with a cold, coughing breath - the typical cough of a smoker if exposed to the cold of the morning.


"Unemployment basis.... unemployment base....!!"


The Insur alarm clock rang loudly. Insur immediately woke up and turned off his alarm clock. He stretched his body to the left and right. Uhh... His pleasure.... Inner Insur.


Insur stood up and staggered towards the public bathroom. On the way he meets Bambang, the only neighbor he has.


"For Bambang." Sapa Insur's.


"Morning is also Sur." Reply Bambang.


"Where are you going?" Ask Insur.


"The cave wants to take a shower. Where are you going?" Ask Bambang back.


"The cave is also going to take a bath." Answer Insur.


The two stared at each other sharply. The bathroom is just one. Who is quick, he will shower first.


"Gua again hunt - hustle. The cave that took a shower first." Insur.


"Well the cave first, the cave bath is shallow really." Bambang.


"That can't dong. The cave that took a shower first."


"Eh the bottom of the pot lid from the first as well as the cave that bathes first!"


"That was before. Times change. Once - a time the cave bathes first!"


"Eh you nantangin?"


"Who knows who would dare. Uh cave mean, who's afraid!"


Finally Insur and Bambang were hit in front of the public bathroom. Bambang immediately locked onto Insur's body by holding it from behind.


Insur tried to escape from the lock Bambang by licking Bambang's hand. The slovenly bambang his hand was licked and finally released his lock.


Now it's Bambang's right foot. Bambang tried to escape but was powerless. Insur take off Bambang flip-flops. Then he started to scratch the surface of his feet.


"Feel the tickle of the deadly cave of Bambang!" Shouting Insur.


"Buahahahah.. Buaha... Forgiveness Sur.. Buahaha..." Shouted Bambang who felt amused and tormented.


Insur mercilessly continues to tickle Bambang's feet until finally Bambang collapsed unconscious. Insur immediately went into the bathroom.


Finish bathing Insur immediately dress casually themed beach. Today he had to rush to the beach Cockroaches to replace the duty of Mr. Jarwi who was on leave as a lifeguard because there was a sudden need.


Insur was piggybacked Pantam with his bututnya bike to the beach Cockroach. The cockroach beach is on the south side of the eastern part of KangAgung village. The route is also relatively easier and more accessible than the white sand beach.


On the road seemed to pass through several winding roads with wide hills. On the left and right sides that passed seen some trees - big trees cool.


After four hours Insur and Pantam arrived at the beach. Looks crowded beach Cockroaches with some local residents who mostly work as fishermen. On the beach there are many fish traders and food stalls, of course there are also many coffee shops where fishermen chat after selling some of their catch fish. There Mr. Jarwi was waiting for the two of them.


"Oh, you two are." Excited Mr. Jarwi to see the arrival of Insur and Pantam.


"Sorry Mr. Jarwi. It's also called a bicycle ride." Insur explained.


The three of them finally headed for a lifeguard post in the form of a giant lighthouse. That place looks old. Although from the outside it looks scary but it turns out the room in it is very comfortable with several divided rooms - for.


"Nah Sur, Tam. This is your room on guard. Clean right? There are two bedrooms and one bathroom." Said Mr. Jarwi explaining.


"That's a staircase leading to the top of the lighthouse, huh Mr Jarwi?" Ask Pantam.


"Yes. But this lighthouse is just your resting place. This lighthouse has not been used for a long time. Well eventually the cave remodel became a cave residence." Answer Mr. Jarwi.


"It seems that this lighthouse has a history of its own." Insur.


"really. This lighthouse has a long history. Later I will tell while coffee at the mak Imah stall. You put your things first in your own room. Then help me pick up my stuff." Said Mr. Jarwi giving instructions.


Insur and Pantam immediately put their goods in their respective rooms. After that they helped lift goods owned by Mr. Jarwi to the top of a 4 x 4 WD monster car.


"Waaaaah crazy! Antique car is Mr. Jarwi!" Pantam Seru.


"Hadidna..... Sure, of course! This is the cave's pride cruiser!" Excited Mr. Jarwi who seems so dear to his 4 x 4 WD monster car.


"The gedhe is very Mr. Jarwi." Tukas Insur's.


"This cave car is indeed a special car that I designed myself to be able to pass through any terrain. Let's get on! We coffee at the mak Imah stall while I direct your duties later!" Mr. Jarwi's orders on Insur and Pantam.


After the three of them had boarded the car, Mr. Jarwi immediately started the engine.


Brrummmmm......


The sound of the car engine roared through the sandy beach terrain so easily! How could such a big car be able to pass through a sand beach field?! Really - really scary modification of Mr. Jarwi!


The three of them finally arrived at Mak Imah's shop. It looks like Mak Imah is relaxing while chatting with his customers who have just returned to sea.


"Coffee three Mak Imah!" Message Mr. Jarwi.


"Oah son Jarwi. Yes, yes, ready... uh, who are the two people behind you?" Ask Mak Imah kepo.


"Ohhh these two guys are the ones who will replace me guarding the Cockroach beach. His name is Insur and Pantam." Said Mr. Jarwi.


"Greetings to Mak imah!" Say Insur and Pantam together.


"Yes, greetings. Just sit in front. The coffee cave. Entar anterine cave." Say Mak Imah.


Mr. Jarwi, Insur, and Pantam immediately walked towards the seat in front which led to the view of the sea.


"Ahhh it's so beautiful... How beautiful!!" Shouted Pantam repeating his sentence while sitting down.


"of course! This place is one of the beautiful places in KangAgung village is not it? Jhaha...." Said Mr. Jarwi.


"True Mr. Jarwi. Honestly, even though I have lived in KangAgung village I have never set foot on this Cockroach beach." Insur.


"Just be clear. Not that it is because the center of KangAgung village is always hostile. The last I heard was the Battle of the Slaughterer with the Dark Lord Surin on the Great Bridge two years ago. This place although a bit far from the center of the village remains part of KangAgung village. It's just that this place has never been hit by war like the center of KangAgung village." Obviously Mr. Jarwi was long while lighting his cigarette.


Mak Imah came with three hot coffee orders Pak Jarwi. After putting the coffee on the table, Mak Imah returned to his place. Pantam immediately sipped the coffee made by Mak Imah, while Insur lit a cigarette offered by Mr. Jarwi to them.


"I want to know the history of this Cockroach beach settlement." Speak Insur while exhaling cigarette smoke from between his lips.


Mr. Jarwi replied, "Well, I'll tell you....."
