Love In Silence
Fruit Salad




 


 


After returning home from school, Axel and Axela went straight to Balqis' house but on the way, they had to stop because they had to buy by for Balqis and Om Aksa.


"Ka, buy this chocolate just yuk." Said Alexa while taking a love-shaped box whose contents are brown.


"Yes, but try to see the contents first. I'm afraid it won't fit." Reply Axel.


"Mom, you can't if the box is opened. I want to see what it looks like?" alexa told the store owner.


"Oh yes, it's not open here." The mother replied with a friendly smile.


"It looks like this." Said the mother after opening the box cover.


 



 


"Good too, brother, I want to buy this for aunty and om." Alexa.


"Well, how many of these are open?" ask Axel.


"75 thousand nak." The mother answered, closing the box and putting it on the crackle.


"This is the money." Said Axel gave money 100 thousand. The mother also gave me a bag of crackles that contained chocolate earlier.


"The return is 25 grand, son." Said the mother was friendly.


"Yes ma'am."


"No money five thousand.  There are 10 thousand, 20 thousand, 50 thousand and 100 thousand. How about it, I want nukar first ya daft." Said the mother.


"Do not ma'am, let the change 20 thousand aja not papa." Axel smiled.


"But son, it's only 75 grand."


"Father ma'am, let's just say that five thousand is mother's sustenance today."


"Alright, thank you son." said the mother while giving 20 thousands to Axel. After they finished buying chocolate, they bought fruit salad.


"Ka, that's someone selling fruit salad." Alexa said pointing to mother who sells fruit salad on the side of the road. They did buy chocolate and one of the fruit on the side of the road while helping them spend their sales.


"Okay, we're there." Said Axel while walking to the mother who sold the wrong fruit.


"Mother, buy salad 2." Axel smiled kindly.


"Buy what son?" ask the mother no less friendly.


"How much is buk?" ask balek Axel.


 


 



"It's got a price. The 200 ml one costs 12,000, the 400 ml one costs 20,000, the 750 ml one costs 38,000 and the 1,000 ml one costs 50 thousand. Which one would you like to buy?" ask the mother.


"May see that 38,000 don't buk?"


"Oh can."


She opened one of the salad.


"It's like this shape." Said the mother while showing her the contents.


 



"Good lumayan sis." Alexa said, Quietly.


"Other thing is buk, is there a decoration on it that is rather neat a little. Sorry." Axel said he saw the appearance above was less neat.


"There's deck. Mom will open the other one." Said the mother was not angry even though Axel said that the salad decoration was not neat.


 


 



 


 


 


 



"If this bunder how many buk?" ask Axel.


 



"The bunder costs the same deck, there are 12 thousand, there are 20 thousand."


"There is no deck, if the bunder is only a small one. 12,000 and 20,000."


"Oh that. Then it's appearance on it kog different all right?" ask Axel.


"Emang deliberately deck, so that buyers can choose the appropriate and according to taste." Answer that is actually not too old and the estimated age is still 32 years. Just his appearance is a little dull and cumbersome. But if you see a beautiful person just do not wear make up.


"This is mom's salad?" ask Axel.


"Not the deck, it's someone else's. And I just sell it. If you make your own there is no capital." Answer the mother.


"Oh. How many times do you get this sale?" ask Axel.


"Sometimes fifteen thousand sometimes 20 thousand even once only 8 thousand a full day."


"A little bit of money." Axel.


"Yes but I am always grateful to still be able to earn income so that I can support my young son and buy the medicine of my sick husband." Mother's words did not feel like tears. I don't know why he could cry and tell a little boy who doesn't know what it is. Perhaps it was because the burden was so heavy that the story simply flowed.


 


"Oh, sorry ma'am. It makes you sad."


"Father boy, I'm used to this."


"Oh yes I bought a salad that is fifty thousands 5, which is 38 thousands 5, which is 12,000 an also 5 same that is 20 thousands 5."


"A lot of kids?" ask the coolest mom.


"So papa, because I need to make me love to aunt and om." Axel replied with a smile.


"All right." The mother immediately wrapped all Axel's orders into cardboard boxes and gave them to Axel.


"How much is it all buk?" ask Axel.


"600 grand son." Said the mother while totaling everything.


"It's not the money" Axel said while giving a million.


"It's over 400 grand, son."


"Yes, mom intentionally. It's money for mom so she can take her husband to check on me and make a baby snack."


"Thank you son." Said the mother was moved because since he sold new this time there are people who want to give the money for just.


"Same with mom. Oh yeah wrong this isn't all for me, it's for mom, too." Said Axel while giving a fruit salad that cost fifty thousand two.


"Again, thank you, my husband and children, I love this salad." Said the mother while taking the salad from Axel's hand.


"I said yes, Mom. Assalamu'alaikum."


"Getishalight."


Axel and Alexa then walked into the car and got into the car after the driver opened the door.


In the car, Axel was confused about what fruit salad this much.


"Ka, what do we eat the salad, we can not give everything to aunt and om." said Alexa.


"Yes, my sister was confused as well. Oh yes this is for father two." Said Axel while giving a fruit salad worth 38,000 to his driver.


"Still yes den." said the driver was happy to get a free fruit salad.


"Same sir." Axel smiled.


"Still 16" Axel said.


"Yes, I thought we were going to aunty how much?" ask Alexa.


"Two is enough. We love the fifty thousand." Answer Axel.


"What do the rest of you want to do?" ask Alexa.


"Make me den. I want kog." Said the driver but only in his heart because he could not dare to say such a thing.


"Sir, we're going to the nursing home." Axel.


"OK den."


Finally the driver went to a nursing home not far from where he is now. After arriving at the nursing home, Axel and Alexa immediately went down and gave the salad to the caregivers who live in the nursing home, so they want to give it to the grandparents who live in the nursing home. Somehow that would be enough. Coincidentally, living in a nursing home is also not too much only about 30 people.


After they finished giving the salad, they got back into the car. " Yes is done as well" Axel said.


"Yes, Alhamdulillah" said Alexa happy. They went on to go to Balqis' house.
