One day after taking care of everything. Young Jae's father decided
kampung rumah. He did not make himself flashy but indeed he came to
the village was with a new car, like a person who had just returned from overseas.
Bringing souvenirs ala raya.
His heart was so cold and peaceful when he entered his village. Children's voices
who was playing, and the cockroaches are still the same as when he was a child
and teenagers. He also saw a coffee shop in the middle of the village. It's like before, a little
there is a repair on the front. Backward there was no change.
He stopped his car right on the edge of the shop. Some people who are
drinking there turned to him. Their foreheads are trying
recognize the young man who got out of the car. They seem to not recognize
that guy's. Understandably Jaelane left the village when he just graduated from high school. After five years
he just set foot again.
Jaelane nodded her head at everyone who was drinking coffee
while chatting.
"From the city, huh?"
Ask a man who is sitting not far from Jae who is waiting for the owner
taverns. Jaelane accidentally stopped by the stall to find out about her lover
Ratna Dumilah's.
"Yes, sir."
Jaelane smiled and nodded her head at all of them.
"I was last night, was there an inn nearby?"
While he ordered a glass of coffee, glutinous, and fried bananas. That coffee shop
open for twenty-four hours, because it is right in front of a
pool buses between cities, so almost every time someone stopped by the stall
that coffee.
"Oh, ada! turn to the street next to this shop, that road leads to the city
there's lodging there."
"Ok, thank you sir."
"Where are you going, man? like from far away, huh?"
"Yes sir, I'm from Jakarta."
Ohhhh, the man who was drinking coffee simultaneously rounded
their mouths.
Jaelane gave a small smile, "I want to see my friend in the village
Martapotan sir, yes about an hour's drive away from here, but
I want a break."
Ohhhhh, back they were the same commenting on what Jae said.
"Who? I know everyone in the village?"
"Ratna Dumilah?"
"Oh, that Ratna?"
"Does you know him?"
"Everyone knows him, he's moved here."
"Oh, so he's not in the village anymore, sir?"
The man shook his head, "Since marrying a rice salesman in the city, he
move and sell in the city. Their largest house in the world
the district office."
It was not in vain Jae stopped by the stall. He has got that information
he wanted. He stood up and asked what he had to pay
it belonged to the fathers who had been chatting with him.
They were all very happy, even the change was handed over to them
there are still one hundred and fifty thousand. They are taking
a pack of cigarettes, and the rest for tomorrow again, they'll have coffee
joint.
Thank God, what a dream last night, there was a young man who suddenly
treat them. The fathers asked for rice and
side dishes to bring for wife and children, because they are only
just five. The shopkeeper was happy, so were the fathers.
While Jae, leaving the place, he turns down the road
which leads to the city. And right in the middle of the city he saw a
a bigger inn than any other building in the line.
He parked his car and pulled out his suitcase. Then walk to meet
desk to ask for a room. There is still an empty room. Coincidentally
it was the weekend, usually many traders stay overnight
in that hotel.
"So she's in this town, she's married to a rice magnate."
Jaelane hugged her roll, she felt a little melancholy reminiscing about her romance
with Ratna Dumilah. The girl was happy to run. If friends
his man called out with seductive intent, he snarled and then
"Garak very!"
And they all liked girls who had fair skin.
Her cheeks were reddish while running around in the sun. The girl was like
princess in the fairy tale she read in the book. Beautiful and charming. Even
nature fell in love with him.
Of all the men who approached him he was the one who ended up lucky. Girl
it became her lover. They often leave and go home late
while talking. Sometimes Jae takes his lover jajan miso and drinks
young coconut ice. Happy, beautiful at high school. The world belongs to both,
while the others are angry.
Until high school graduation arrives. Jae is determined to go to Jakarta to complain
fates. Ratna ran to see him and cried in his chest.
"You don't go Jae, I'll marry someone who doesn't
love me."
"We're young Na, it's still a long way in our lives, wait for me, I assure you
I'll be back."
"No Jae, don't go, we get married, my dad will give us his stall
for us to manage, don't leave me."
Ratna half begged, but Jae shook his head. He does not want the same fate
with her friends. After graduation, working hard and getting married
and his life is just enough to eat. He wants to change, he has a grudge
poverty. His family is all poor. So poor that he suffered
busung was hungry and eventually died one after another.
Only Jae is left. It's sad to remember all that. Dreams
and a great desire made him take off Ratna Dumilah. The girl wouldn't
promised waiting. Jae said, "If they are a match for sure
they'll meet again and get married."
Ratna then let go of her hug and pushed Jae, she stared with
an angry look, "Go, I won't wait for you!" The girl then
running away leaves Jae who is waiting for the bus departure.
"Hey, I'm leaving soon! wait for me, we'll be happy!"
But Ratna ran up to him and threw him with a slipper.
"Hemm, what kind of lover is that, instead of being ushered in with a kiss, this is it
thrown with sandals."
Jae shook his head.
The man then fell asleep with bitter memories. Early in the morning he woke up
and packing. After reading the newspaper, having breakfast and drinking warm tea he stepped up
exiting. Still talking at the coffee shop. That Ratna usually comes back
to his house opposite the subdistrict office around ten o'clock
or eleven o'clock. Her husband replaced her until the afternoon.
Early in the morning Jae was preparing himself. He soon remembered the childhood of several
this time to the city to sell the crops. After a long time selling them
sell all, then his mother can buy fried bananas that sell near them.
They then went home on foot many miles up to their feet
broke due to heat.
Sometimes his eyes were suddenly blurry and twitching. He often falls because
can't see the road. It turns out the doctor said puskesmas in his stomach a lot of worms.
After he took the medicine from the doctor, early in the morning when he defecated in the back
he screamed because there were so many worms coming out of his rectum.
The whitish worms that squirm are disgusting. Her stomach is just right while
his legs are skinny. He was so pathetic when he was a kid. He threw away memories
bad was from his head and imagined a meeting with Ratna.
He stopped his car on the side of the road and saw the biggest house in front of the office
subdistrict. It was that house, no longer the largest and most magnificent house.
Suddenly he was surprised to see a little boy running out and a girl appeared
others pursue. The little boy was laughing, and it seemed like the mother was chasing him
very worried about him. "Jimmi! don't run!"
"Rabra!"
Jae opened the car door and shouted.
