Love from GIA

Episode 194 (Ke Sawah)

"Assalamu'alaikum" said Mbak Menik.

"Wa'alaikumsalam," answered us all simultaneously.

"Sar, I gowo telo Sar (I brought ketela Sar)" said Mbak Menik while carrying a bucket containing processed ketella.

"Wooooo, nowe dewe Nik?? (Make yourself Nik??)" ask Bi Sarah.

"Lohhh, iyo toh Sar, iki special gawe dayo mu (Yeah Sar, this is specifically for your guests)" replied Mbak Menik.

"Monggo (Please), try it," said Mbak Menik.

"This must be delicious made by Mbak Menik," praised Naufal.

Mbak Menik smiled happily in praise by Naufal.

"Hehehem, when is Sar mane, in the handsome wong elem (When again Sar, in praise of cute people)" said Mbak Menik.

Naufal and I took that ketella.

"Eeemmmm, it's good, Ma'am" I said.

"Truly Ma'am?? Yummy???" ask Mbak Menik.

"Yes, really, really good," I replied.

"Alhamdulillah, later if you return to the city, I make it," said Mbak Menik using Indonesian.

"Hehehem, you can do it" I said.

We talked there, telling each of our habits.

True said Bi Sarah, in this village, after the magrib, many residents have closed the door of his house.

Only the sound of crickets was heard.

"Bi, really quiet, yes" said Naufal.

"Sepi Mas, but usually there are still some people passing by, hehem, his name in the village of Mas, the village people kalo abis isya' must have fallen asleep, hehem, because after the shabuh must have wrestled in each Sawah," said Bi Sarah.

Only Bi Sarah's House is crowded residents.

Laughing ngak because it turns out Mbak Menik has little talent as a comedian.

Although there are not so bright lights in the courtyard of Bi Sarah's House, but we are still comfortable there.

Until late at night we told stories, about Mbak Menik.

"Yowes Sar, I muleh yo, (Yes already Sar, I go home yes)" pamita Mbak Menik.

"Liyo Nik, ojo lali sesok mrene mane (Yes Nik, don't forget tomorrow here again)" said Bi Sarah.

"Lyo Sar, Mbak Gia do not forget to stop by her Mama too, everyone monggo (Please) stop by my house," asked Mbak Menik.

"Hehehem, enggeh (Yes) Mbak Menik," replied My mother.

Mama Menik went home.

"Funny yes Ma'am Menik Menik that," said my Papa.

"Enggeh (Yes) Sir, Menik is like that person, like a person who never felt sadness, but pity his life is miserable sir," said Bi Sarah.

"Do you have a husband Bi??" ask Naufal.

"Hehehm, not yet Mas" answered Naufal.

I close my mouth to Naufal's ear.

"Why ask that??? Want to get married again???" I whispered in Naufal's ear.

"Hehehem" Naufal smiled.

The night, the wind was getting colder, the tips of my hands and feet were almost frozen.

We all decided to go inside.

While I was taking ablution water, I heard Naufal ask Bi Sarah because she was confused about which faucet to wear.

"Bi, this is the faucet where can ya??" asked Naufal innocently.

"It could be all Mas," Bi Sarah replied.

"Hihihi," I laughed at Naufal in the bathroom.

Because the faucets in Bi Sarah's house there are many and are located close together.

"But the faucet is a lot of Bi," said Naufal astonished.

"Hehehe, yes Mas, because there are two from PDAM, one from the well, another directly from the source Mas," Bi Sarah replied.

"You mean Aunt from the source?? Mountain Auntie's point??" ask Naufal.

"That's fine Mas, hehehem, monggo (Please) can be tried Mas Naufal which," said Bi Sarah.

"Which mountain is this Bi??" ask Naufal again.

"Don't be a snob from the mountain straight Mas, cold to know how you feel, hihihi," I sneered.

"It's really cold, Bi?" ask Naufal.

"It is cold indeed Mas, but if Mas Naufal deigns yes monggo," said Bi Sarah.

I always take a warm bath if at Bi Sarah's house because the water is very cold makes the bones stiff and heavy to run.

Finally Naufal tried ablution using water that flows directly from the mountain.

Soon I came out of the bathroom, and waited for Naufal to finish ablution.

"Where??? Cold right??" I asked Naufal.

"Bbbrrrrr very cold darling, this is if people who have a toothache must be sick with mouthwash, Bbbrrrr really cold," said Naufal.

I laughed at the cold Naufal.

"I told you earlier, yes it is cold, straight from the mountain, frozen later you Mas, heheheh," I said.

"This is the original cold Gi don't use snow" said Naufal.

We also perform the Isya prayer'.

Early in the day, when adzan shubuh reverberated.

Bi Sarah woke me up.

"Sir, want to come with Bibi to the Masjid??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Hoooamm, yes Bi, just Bi waitin Gia," I said.

Bi Sarah left me, and I woke up Mas Naufal, because last night I slept in the front seat of the TV, while Naufal slept in the room with Abay.

"Mas Naufal woke up" I said.

Naufal woke up.

I invited him to pray together to Mushola with Bi Sarah.

"Mas, pray in Mushola" I said.

"Wake up, Dad??" ask Naufal.

"Udah Mas" I replied.

"Yes, you have gone to the bathroom first, I will follow" said Naufal who is actually still sleepy.

I rushed to the bathroom to get some water.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Once all was complete and ready, we flocked to Mushola.

.

After Mushola, Bi Sarah offered me to come with her to Sawah.

"Bak Gia want to come with Aunt to Sawah??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Don't Ma'am, later there until (you) overheated, hehehem," said Mbak Sari.

"No papa Mbak Sar, hehem, I also did not go to Sawah for a long time" I said.

"Monggo Mbak Gia come, but later sit around aja Mbak, do not follow Auntie jembur to Sawah ya, hehehe," said Bi Sarah.

"Who's aunt is there?" my many.

"Just like Mr. Rusdi" Bi Sarah replied.

"Gia change clothes first Bi," I said.

"Enggeh monggo (Yes please)" said Bi Sarah.

I went into the room, opened my suitcase, from Mushola, Abay fell asleep.

"Where are you going??" ask Mas Naufal.

"To the rice fields with Auntie," I replied.

"I'm coming" said Naufal.

"What about eBay?? Poor you will wake up no one," I replied.

"Same Daddy's coming too??" ask Naufal.

"Same Papa has been walking together," I said.

"Yes, I am at home and I will follow you to the rice field" said Naufal.

"Okay, byeee," I said.

"Byeee," answered Naufal rather sadly for not going to the rice fields.

"Come on, Gia is done" I said.

Me, Bi Sarah, and Mr. Rusdi went to the rice fields that I had visited yesterday.

Apparently, a lot of people in this dawn hour go to the rice fields, there are barefoot roads, there are those who ride camel bikes, and there are also those who still ride his buffalo.

"Mbak Sar" said Bi Sarah's neighbor.

"Enggeh (Yes)" Bi Sarah replied.

They all look at me in wonder, because maybe my face looks foreign here.

I am very happy and happy with the atmosphere of this village.

Sad, tired, pissed, slumped, fell, lost all here.

Happy to see them greeting each other.

Happy to see them working together.

Happy to see them simultaneously wearing peci to Sawah.

"Huhuhum, seneng ya Bi," I said.

"Enak is here" said Bi Sarah.

"Hehehe has no match for Bi, from kemaren muji-muji this village continues Bi, if Bibi said, here pastia ayem tentrem," said I.

"Hehehe, definitely Ma'am, not as rowdy as in the city," Bi Sarah said.

***(In Sawah)

There have been many farmers who have struggled to grow their fields.

Some plow their fields, plant rice, cultivate, and hoe their own land vigorously.

"Sugeng enjing Pak Karno (Good morning Pak Karno)" said Bi Sarah.

"Sugeng enjing Ma'am Sarah," replied Mr. Karno.

Mr. Karno also smiled at me, even though this was the first time we met.

"Sir Karno who is Bi??" my many.

"The head of the village here is Ma'am" Bi Sarah replied.

There was a small hut there, and Bi Sarah told me to just sit down.

"Mbak Gia sat here just not papa Mbak, clean also Mbak place," said Bi Sarah.

"Hehhem, Bi, Gia actually wants to come down as well as Auntie," I said.

"But Ma'am, it will be dirty, no, no" Bi Sarah said.

"Let's go Bi, Gia really wants to, but this is Gia wearing Bi's pants," my rayuku.

"Yes Bi yes," I said again.

"Hehehe, ngggeh also monggo-monggo Mbak (Yes already please-please Mbak)" replied Bi Sarah who finally allowed me to participate in planting and plunge directly into his rice field.

The first time I put my feet in the sag, it felt like there was a tickle how it was, but it was very cold and a bit difficult for me to walk.

Bi Sarah is in the middle but I'm still on the sidelines.

"Can Gia??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Hehem, can Bi can," I replied who did not want to bother Bi Sarah.

There I was taught by Bi Sarah, how to plant it straight.

"Seru is also Bi ya," I said as I planted the rice in my hand.

"Later get dirty all over Ma'am" said Bi Sarah who was worried.

"Not Bi, it's Gia herself who asked," I said.

Half of the vast rice fields of Bi Sarah have been successfully planted until dawn emerged from the eastern horizon to greet us.

Especially when the sunrise like this, visible orange-colored sun smouldering.

"Where is not Bi here, in suguhi beautiful mountain scenery kayak gini, let alone the sunrise Bi," I said.

"What is sunrise??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Sunrise means sunrise Bi" I replied.

"Ooo the emergence is so yes Ma'am," said Bi Sarah.

"Well, really Bi," I replied.

"It's at this hour Ma'am, be a moment again Sari must be here to bring breakfast this morning Ma'am," said Bi Sarah.

"Long life Ma'am, it's Mbak, see Sari has been walking here while carrying a bushel of Auntie's," said Bi Sarah while showing her finger to Mbak Sari who was at the end.

"Hehehm, yes, Auntie can fit in really well" I said.

"Bi, if Bibi's working, who's working on Bibi's rice field??" my many.

"Sari must be with her husband Ma'am," replied Bi Sarah.

Mr. Rusdi was noiseless, because so focused and apparently Mr. Rusdi missed his rice field.

I, Mr. Rusdi and Bi Sarah move to the edge of the Sawah.

Bi Sarah kept holding my hand for fear that I might fall.

After getting to the edge, Madam Sari sat in the small hut earlier.

Bi Sarah and I cleaned our feet and hands full of fat.

"Where is this guy cleaning??" my many.

"Here Ma'am, come with Aunty" he replied.

Bi Sarah took me to walk to the corner of Sawah, there was a small bamboo that flowed very clear water.

"Holy is here, ma'am, isn't papa, is he??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Ooowh, hehem, no papa is Bi" I replied.

I cleaned my hands and feet that were covered with fat.

After clean we approached Mbak Sari in the hut.

Shortly thereafter, Mr. Rusdi saw Naufal and Abay following us.

"The mother is Mas Naufal with Dek Abay" said Mr. Rusdi.

Our eyes were immediately on them.

"Soalah Mas Naufal said he wanted to come here Bi, was actually going to come, but Abay was still sleeping, so can't," I said.

Naufal approached us while holding Abay.

Abay loved to run on the small road between rice fields and rice fields.

"Mamaaaa.." Call Abay in the middle of the paddy fields to call me.

From a distance I wave my hand.

Abay ran to me.

"Huussty Abay, don't yell" I said.

"Hehehem, Abay is Ma's mouth" Abay said.

Naufal saw my pants and clothes wet, he looked me up and down, up and down.

"You went to Sawah??" ask Naufal.

"Yes yes, I want to" I replied.

"Can you??" naufal asked with a slight mock.

"You can ask Auntie, yes Bi yes," I replied.

"Hehheem, there's only you dear" said Naufal.

"So I thought Papa was with Mama here" continued Naufal.

"Why hasn't Mama come home yet??" my many.

"Not yet, in a deserted house, there are no people" answered Naufal.

"Maybe the same Mother still enjoy to the beautiful village here Mas, hehehem, Ibuk the same Mr. if here it is Mas, rarely at home, the streets continue," said Bi Sarah.

"Mama's message with Papa hasn't come home Darin, sweetie here they're dear" said Naufal.

"Let's sit here" said Mr. Rusdi.

"Dek Abay want breakfast??" ask Bi Sarah.

"Abay wants to run there Bi," said Abay while pointing his finger at the rice field more middle.

"Yes there already, son, but back, hehehm," said Naufal.

"Yeeaayy," said Abay immediately ran away with joy leaving us.

We were all sitting in that little hut.

The food brought by Mbak Sari from rantang, now in good order.

There is a menu of terraced sambal, sea fish, and crackers.

"Breakfast every morning, the most delicious in the rice field is Ma'am," said Mbak Sari.

"No papa, I like you" I said.

Seriate.....
