Jaka Someh's

Chapter 29. A Heart Full of Sincerity.

Suddenly there was the sound of a child crying loudly from behind the trees where they rested. Jaka Someh and Dewi Sekar looked at each other while listening to the sound of the cry of the child.

Because of his high curiosity, Jaka Someh took the initiative to investigate. He immediately went to look for the origin of the crying sound. It turns out that behind the trees there is a small village.

The sound of crying came from one of the houses there. As the cry of the little boy grew louder and did not stop, Jaka Someh came to the house. A little probing, he peered into the house through the crack of his room.  It turned out that a child was crying loudly in his mother's arms.

Jaka Someh knocked on the door and said his greetings several times. Shortly after, a man in his 40s came out of the house. He saw Jaka someh standing at his door, and asked,

“Sorry who is this? What need? night-night come to my house ?”

Jaka Someh smiled kindly, then answered the man's question,

“Sorry sir, my name is Someh, I happen to be traveling and resting not far from your house, ".

Jaka Someh pointed to the field where he and Dewi Sekar rested, then he continued his words, saying,

"Sorry father, I hear the father's son constantly crying, if you may know if there is a problem? Maybe I can help, ?”

Mr. sumantri was gawking at Jaka Someh. For a moment he fell silent while looking at Jaka Someh. After feeling certain that Jaka Someh was a good person, she explained why her son was crying,

“There is nothing, kang, actually my son cried just because he was hungry, we happened to run out of food. There was nothing we could cook today. The rice reserves we have are gone.  Yesterday our village was visited by a band of robbers, they brought whatever is considered valuable items including our rice supplies, now we have no food to eat “.

Jaka Someh felt pity after hearing the man's testimony. He was concerned about the calamity they had just experienced. Jaka Someh then said to sumantri sir,

“Beginnya sir, I happen to have a little reserve of rice and corn in the cart that I brought, you can take it now to cook and the rest you can share with other villagers, come sir follow me ! “.

Mr. Sumantri still looks doubtful and doubtful with the words of Jaka Someh,

“Kumaha kang, ?”

Jaka Someh reassures sumantri sir,

“Iya pak mango, please come with me!  “.

Although there are still doubts, but sumantri sir walked to follow Jaka Someh to take the rice and corn promised Jaka Someh.    Jaka Someh said to Dewi Sekar Harum who looked astonished to see Jaka Someh bringing a man with him,

“what is kang, ? Koq looks serious once “

“Begini Nyai, the family of this father of tea is experiencing a disaster. They had just been robbed so that their food reserves were exhausted. This father's son was very hungry, so this father will bring him here, so he took some of our rice and corn reserves, it's okay2 Nyai, he said,  if we give some food reserves to them?”.

Dewi Sekar sympathizes with the situation experienced by the family of Mr. Sumantri and other villagers,

“Iya kang Someh, it's okay at all, anyways it does have akang, I actually feel happy if I can share with them “

Jaka Someh smiled at Dewi Sekar,

“Thanks for Nyai “

Mr. Sumantri also thanked Dewi Sekar, then he brought a sack of rice that had been mixed with corn, which is expected to be enough for food reserves for 2 months.  Jaka Someh felt that the actions of Ki Jabrik and his men had indeed passed. They have been blackmailing people in various villages, so that people's lives suffer like this. Poverty is increasing everywhere, the impact of kedholiman done Ki Jabrik and his gang. Jaka Someh thinks maybe he should involve himself to stop the actions of Ki Jabrik and his men who act arbitrarily to the community.

That night Jaka Someh made a corn field in the field in that place, so that later the villagers can harvest it. After Dewi Sekar Harum fell asleep, Jaka Someh went to Sumantri sir's house to borrow a hoe.  Despite his astonishment, Mr. Sumantri lent his hoe without asking Jaka Someh much. That night Jaka Someh made a cornfield.

By dawn he had finished his work, starting from cultivating the soil, putting corn seeds into planting holes and then watering them with water. Jaka Someh then performed the dawn prayer. After that, he went to bed until the morning sun began to shine warmly.

After breakfast, they get ready to leave the place. Before leaving, Jaka Someh and Dewi Sekar said goodbye to Mr. Sumantri. Not Forgot Jaka someh also returned the hoe belonging to Mr. Sumantri. Jaka Someh said to Mr. Sumantri,

“Pak, I have planted corn on the land, hopefully you will take care of it!   Insha Allah in the period of 2 months again can be harvested, please take!  and you share it with citizens who need”.

Sumantri was shocked, she just understood why Jaka Someh borrowed her hoe last night,

“Waduh thank you very much kang, do not know anymore my family tea should reply akang and Nyai with what? I and my family can only pray for Akang and Nyai may always be in the Most Powerful Protection, always in good health, safe, safe and smooth from all his affairs. Aamiin “

Jaka Someh also guaranteed it,

“Aamiin sir, thank you “.

Dewi Sekar Harum was amazed by the kindness of Jaka Someh who was full of totality. He just understood that Jaka Someh turned out last night not to sleep, because it made corn fields for the family of Mr. Sumantri and other villagers. There was a sense of admiration in his heart. Only now did he discover a figure of a man who was attentive and sincerity. Not only to himself but also to everyone who needs help, indiscriminately.

After saying goodbye, they continued their journey.
