Man Seeker Cuan

The Part 16

"Indra! Hey Indra! Have you slept yet?" Her mother shouted from behind the door.

"Oh... What the hell is mak?" He replied weakly because his sleep was disturbed. Then he got up and walked over like a zombie opening the door. "What the hell mak? From that storm. Yes, tomorrow I'll ask for my salary."

"Hey, that's not what you want to say."

"Next week you're going to the capital. There, don't act! Don't make your behavior there the way it is here! Remember that! We don't have anybody. So don't be reckless and know yourself! Tomorrow your brother will send money to take care of your SIM."

"What's? SIM? What's that for? What will I do there?"

"So courier! Remember that! Don't bother! Don't make that road the way of your ancestors. Keep safety! So tomorrow if you can not work to the rice field. Let's go take care of SIM tomorrow."

But hearing that his mind became burdened. Because he has promised to work in the rice field of Mr. Tigor again until the rice field is finished. So he refused his mother's invitation for that reason. "Can't mak. Tomorrow I have to get into Tigor's paddy field."

"What do you mean? So it's more important than your future?"

"No. But let me ask you for my wages."

"Everything when it's finished work, the wages are immediately requested. This is how it turned out? Suddenly there's important business, so can't."

"After all take care of SIM for a while, mom. Not for a week. So calm down, mak."

"Easy in all your brains." Said the woman with great pressure while pinching Indra's head and then left.

In the morning, Indra returned to work in the rice field with Soni. As usual, he worked diligently without worrying about pacets, leeches, or worms.

In his head he only imagined how later he would adapt in a new environment.

I don't know how many piles of rice he brought in front of Mr. Tigor to the point that he was overwhelmed.

Time kept turning until the sun was about to return to its place. As usual, they came home with a sack of rice seeds.

After lowering the load on the terrace of the house, Indra quickly found Mr. Tigor who had entered the house.

"Sir, I want to ask for my wages. Tomorrow I can't work because there's a sudden business."

"Oh... How is this? Sawahku is not finished. After all, it is difficult to find daily laborers because almost everyone is harvesting. Can't you just postpone your business for a day?" The owner of the rice field.

"Can't sir." Answer's short.

So Tigor with a heavy heart asked for money from his wife and gave her two days' wages.

On the way, as long as he and Soni go home, Soni asks why she can't work tomorrow. So Indra explained everything from the beginning. "Tomorrow I want to take care of SIM because my brother has got a job for me. There I will work as a courier. After that, I will immediately go to the capital."

"Well. yummy. Later you don't take mud baths anymore like me. Soon to be a city boy. As for me, it's still the village."

"Who...! Just be usual."

"Don't be arrogant if you get there. Don't immediately forget the same language of the region itself is already a city child."

"The day you leave, tell me, well, so I can take you to the terminal."

"M." Mmm."

When he got home, and had not sat down, his mother immediately asked about his wages. "Make you ask for your wages?"

"Yes. It's nah!" He said, handing the money to his mother.

"What did Tigor say?" Ask the woman again.

"Nothing is."

"M. Good riddance! I took a shower there! Tomorrow we take care of your SIM. About your ticket, your brother's gonna buy it."

Meanwhile, Soni who knows soon her friend will leave, as if she lost her spirit. Because he has no friends in the village. Therefore he was also thinking of going to the city and looking for work there.

So that night, he contacted some people who could find him a job. But he did not tell Indra that.

**********

In the morning, Indra and her mother prepare to go to take care of the SIM. They take public transportation to get there with a journey of approximately 2 hours.

But hearing the many issues about making a complicated SIM, the woman also made up a sad story in her head along the way.

Arriving there, Indra was immediately taken to a place where he would be tested.

But throughout the written exam and practice, not a single one escaped. So the officer told him to come back tomorrow for the exam.

Given the distance they have to travel, which is about 100 kilometers, and the weight of the cost, his mother also expressed the story that he had been telling since.

He approached the officer and spoke while pleading,

"Sir, please sir. My son needs it so much. Tomorrow he's leaving. If the SIM is not, how. The ticket was purchased sir. So he can't come again tomorrow. Please sir. Besides, my toddler son, I left it at home. Our house is also very far from here sir. We also owe money because it is very important. Please sir."

Looking at his face, the officer felt pity and asked where he lived.

After telling them where they were staying, the officer seemed to reconsider. Then he gave the code to one officer and informed the matter. So the officer took him to a room, and there the officer said, "Yes. Since you need it so much, we'll get the SIM to shoot. But don't tell anyone. Okay!"

"Yes sir!" Indra replied while bowing her head.

So the officer immediately made the SIM and then asked for payment.

Then a sum of red money as much as 4 sheets with five zeros was given to the officer after the SIM was completed and given to him.

"Thank you, sir." Said the woman and her son politely and left.
