My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Rejeki Orphanage

Aleta and Corry took a two-row seat from the front to attend the Artificial Intelligence course that was enabled by Mr. Theo. They enthusiastically listen when the lecturer explains the lecture material.

"Artificial Intelligence or if in Indonesian it is referred to as artificial intelligence is an intelligence added in a system that can be arranged in a scientific context." Theo explained the basic concept of AI.

"Systems like these are often considered computers, where intelligence is created and incorporated into computer machines in order to do work as humans do."

"Now please give an example of what fields use AI a lot, who wants to answer." mr. Theo lecturer who is able to AI courses is famous often give quizzes in his lectures.

Some time the class became quiet because no one volunteered to answer.

"Maybe I will try to answer you." Aleta pointed a finger.

"Please Aleta."

"Some areas that often use AI include expert systems, games, fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, and robotics Mr." Aleta replied firmly.

"That.s right Aleta, good answer." Theo sir praised Aleta.

"How does the AI system work sir." asked Ferry.

Mr. Theo very clearly explained about AI, its implementation and working system. Discussions during lecture hours are carried out actively by students and lecturers. After two and a half hours of meeting, Mr. Theo ended the lecture by classical method.

The second hour course is Calculus, but from prodi admins say that meetings are replaced with tasks that can be accessed in the e learning system. Aleta plans to go straight home to help the orphanage mother accompany the younger siblings in the orphanage.

"Aleta.. come play to Rina's place." take Corry. Lina who was beside Corry smiled and nodded her head.

"For this time, I'm so sorry, I haven't been able to join. Laen time is." Aleta raised both her hands and cupped in front of her chest as a gesture of apology.

"Yes, not pa pa deh. Together yuk out." said Corry while holding Aleta.

The three of them stepped out of the classroom while chatting. In front of the gate they parted, Aleta walked towards the stop in search of public transport.

"Tin.tin..," came the sound of a car horn behind Aleta, without looking at her shifting and walking over to the edge. The sound of the car engine was turned off.

"Aleta. Cook the diklakson did not turn his head." suddenly Ferdinand patted his shoulder from behind and aligned his steps beside Aleta.

'Oh brother Ferdi, sorry brother. Aleta thinks that I'm way too far in the middle and disrupts the road. Finally Aleta moved to the edge." Aleta replied with a sweet smile. His teeth look well-groomed.

"This sweet smile and a pair of clear and clear eyes that made it hard for me to forget." Ferdinand's mind was gobsmacked with Aleta's smile.

"What's up, brother."

"I'm anter home yuk. Hot to ride the angkot." Ferdinand bargained.

"Sister, Aleta is used to it. Just take the angkot, anyways go straight to the house of the angkotnya do not stop at another stop." subtly Aleta refused Ferdinand.

"Well, I'll keep it company until the angkot comes."

Aleta finally agreed to Ferdinand's last offer. They sat at the stop talking about many things while waiting for Angkot majors Wedi to come.

After thirty minutes later, the angkot that Aleta was waiting for was already visible from the end of the road.

"The numbers have come, brother. Thank you for accompanying Aleta to chat, so I can't wait for her angkot." again a sweet smile was given to Ferdinand Aleta.

Ferdinand stopped the angkot to stop, then waited for Aleta to enter and sit in the angkot.

Ferdinand finally returned to the car. Ferdinand had long since taken a heart to Aleta, but had never expressed his feelings and had only shown through attention. He was very careful because not wanting his statement would instead make his relationship with Aleta awkward.

Descending from the angkot Aleta still walked 100 meters towards the orphanage. Angkot only passes at the border of Dengkeng village road that connects between two villages at the foot of the Thousand mountains.

"Let's Ma'am, sir," said Aleta kindly to the residents living around the parlour.

"Let's go to Aleta, just back home from college." they answered with typical hospitality from the villagers.

"Mac Aleta, wait," Bu Darmi ran calling from a distance.

Aleta stopped waiting for Miss Darmi to come.

"What's Miss Darmi."

"It wants nitip vegetables and bananas for the kids in the orphanage. It just so happened that the mother harvested quite a lot" said Bu Darmi while giving two plastic bags of crackles to Aleta.

"Alhamdulillah, Barakallah there is a fortune today. Thank you Miss Darmi, may Allah double down on Bu Darmi's fortune."

"I represent the mother of the parlour to thank Ms. Darmi and the family." Aleta picked up the crackle bag from Bu Darmi then bowed her body as a sign of respect thanks.

"Aami...Yes, you're both Aleta's. I'm back, son." said Ms. Darmi saying back to her house.

"Yes Bu Darmi, be careful on the road. Assalamualaikum."

"Wa Alaikum salam,"

While carrying two bags of crackles in both hands Aleta continued to go home. From far away the sisters of the parlour who were busy playing, running around to welcome his arrival. They were scrambling to help bring her luggage. Aleta smiled happily at the cuteness and behavior of her foster siblings.

"Put it on the kitchen table ya." said Aleta directing the sisters.

"Yes, brother."

Aleta looked for the orphanage mother first before entering the room. The housewife is in the backyard reading a book.

"Mom's assalamualaikum," Aleta said her greetings and kissed Rosna's two hands.

"You've come home, son. How was your lecture today."

"Alhamdulillah smoothly mother. There was a vegetable and banana deposit from Bu Darmi, and Aleta has thanked him for representing her mother and all the residents of the orphanage. Earlier Bu Darmi also sent greetings to mother" Aleta conveyed her greetings to Ms. Darmi while hugging her.

"Wa Alaikum greetings, Ayuk wash the accomplices first continue to change clothes. Don't be like a child, a mother to remind."

"Well mother, Aleta go inside first." said Aleta can't help but grin and let go of her embrace. Then she went inside to change clothes, and helped cook in the kitchen.

The orphanage "Rejeki" where they live has 25 foster children who are currently in SD, 10 in Junior High School, 8 High School in addition to Aleta. Aleta's foster child is already on the go leaving the parlor to work out of town. Only Aleta wants to go to college.

After she finished changing clothes, Aleta looked briefly at the sisters who were playing in the yard. He made sure that his foster siblings were not playing anything dangerous. Those who live in this orphanage are very affectionate and considerate of each other. Although they are not born from the same womb, their bond is more than that of a sibling.
