Episode 4/When Rantang Khadijah Acts, David Choppy.

It's been a week of David in the village, away from the hustle and bustle of urban bush, a peaceful life that David never imagined. He began to feel the tranquility that he never got while in urban areas, well fresh air makes his mind follow fresh.

This morning Abak and Amak again invited David to go to the rice field, who would have thought David who initially refused to start being addicted to going to the rice fields, especially when it was entering lunch time, the thing he was most looking forward to, the arrival of Khadija by bringing food to be David's favorite thing.

‘’It's used to it, Son David?’’ ask Amak who came with a little snack.

‘’Eh, Mother. Yes, at first it was difficult, eh by the way Khadijah did not join Mak?’’ david asked wryly awaiting the arrival of the woman who had made him able to survive.

‘’Oh, Khadijah. Come kok Nak David, just was cooking yam compote, later Nak David try yah,’’ replied Amak who approached Abak who had also begun to rest at the end of the rice field.

David smiled as Khadija became visible, with her beautiful veil making David crazy, even though he had never seen the face behind it. Khadijah greeted David, only his call was ignored, to make Khadijah upset.

‘’Mas, Mas David!’’ khadijah said a little loudly.

‘’Eh, yes. What's up?’’ ask David.

‘’They even daydream, this Mas David ate first his yam compote, must have never eaten in fish?’’ guess Khadijah.

David only chuckles, Khadijah asks permission to place Amak and his Abak to give a compote of homemade yam. David only smiled when he imagined his days would be this happy, not a matter of hard life, but a matter of happiness with Khadijah.

He recalled, what if Khadijah knew who he really was, a son of the Baskoro family conglomerate. Will Khadijah move away from their heaven and earth-like status? Or is David better off hiding his true identity?

Every day David thought about what he would do to stay close to Khadijah, even the sense of returning to the city was unthinkable to him, only Khadijah and about Khadijah.

‘’Mas David hasn't slept?’’ asked Khadijah who approached him while sitting on the terrace of a simple house.

‘’Not sleepy yet, you yourself why are you still not sleeping?’’ ask David back.

‘’It wants to sleep actually, but when you see the door is open, so Khadijah after Masnya here. Is there a problem, Mom? Was Mas fired by Mas Toni?’’ asked Khadijah innocently.

David who heard it still did not understand, how could the story of the office boy still continue until now, when all the young girls in the village were crazy about the good looks he had, uh even Khadijah called him office boy, but his handsome face shifted all the views of the women, except Khadijah.

But it's also good when Khadijah considers if David is only an office boy, he can stay here, especially if he says he will stay longer and find a job here, only, just an alibi to get close to Khadija.

‘’According to you, what job is suitable for me?’’ ask David.

‘’Hmm, try I think first. Hmm, what does it want to work?’’ ask Khadijah.

‘’Hmm, later try Khadija help think, now Khadija is very sleepy, want to sleep because tomorrow there is a morning lecture. Mas David also rest gih, not good too much staying up,’’ advice from Khadijah who went into the simple house that followed by David.

‘’Eh, Khadijah. Can I send you to your college tomorrow? Who knows what inspiration to work here, what can?’’ ask David.

Khadijah gave a nod of his head, he went straight into his room, as did David, himself back to his room as well, with a flowery feeling that kept David from falling asleep, his shadow will deliver Khadijah has succeeded in making him crazy.

Meanwhile, outside the modest house, Toni is watching David and seeing for herself the change of her friend. During this one week he stayed at the mosque next door, only to be able to keep making sure David changed or not.

He was very surprised by the changes that happened to David, it was really unexpected if a conglomerate boy who spent the rest of his life with luxury that ended in outrageous, and the, can turn into a simple figure within a week.

Toni noticed the change in her friend from a distance, especially when a few days ago she saw David working as a construction worker, which must have been difficult work but wages were also difficult.

He still did not expect the changes to David, every day he told about the changes David made to Mr. Adit Baskoro, hearing the news, which parents would not be happy. Well that significant change did not happen if David met with Khadijah.

[Good, Toni. Please keep an eye on David well, Om sure, David can definitely change. Oh right, you said there was a girl around David, the girl who had managed to make a lot of these changes to David,]

‘’Iya, Om. His name is Khadijah,’’

[Khadija, what a beautiful name. Om was eager to meet the girl named Khadijah, but unfortunately Om could not travel far,]

‘’Relax, Om. It seems that Om does not need to come here to meet with Khadijah, but Khadijah himself who will come to Om's place later. Insha Allah,’’

[You mean, Toni? Did David like that girl named Khadijah?]

‘’Hmm, that's how Om is. Since meeting with Khadijah, David's attitude has changed, perhaps to the effect when he has more feelings for Khadija, but I don't know. Om know for yourself right, David is the guy how, all the women he brushes,’’

[Hmm, you're right. But Om hope this woman named Khadijah is able to conquer the playboy David.]

Who would have thought the conversation between Mr. Adit Baskoro and Toni was eavesdropping, well who else if not his relatives. Especially when the first grandmother found out about David's situation became angry.

there was no way their family would fall in love with a village girl, let alone until they were married, it would only be a shame to the Baskoro family's good name.

there is no such thing as a born with wealth marrying a man born with poverty.

‘’Quick find David, lest David marry that country girl!’’
