Not as Beautiful as Angan

Feel wasted

The next day his brother Cempaka bailed home after they were satisfied to play on Eretan beach.

Tears were broken on her cheeks Cempaka. He felt dumped in the middle of people he did not know.

It feels like in a foreign country with a man he does not like at all, knows him not.

Want him to run after the bus that has been speeding up carrying his brother and sister. But he has no power to do all that. Because, she was already bound by the bonds of marriage that forced her to submit to the rules.

Cempaka could only cry over his fate, lamenting his suffering.

"Let's go home!" Karmin invites Cempaka to return to his home wak Iyem, after Bunga and his brother boarded a bus that will take him back to Bandung.

Cempaka silently stared at the bus which started moving leaving the two of them heading towards the destination.

Before long the bus that was driven by his brother and sister was lost from his vision, lost in the swallow bend the road.

"Come, deck!" Take Karmin again while trying to grab Cempaka's hand.

Cempaka quickly took his hand away from Karmin's.

Cempaka set his foot towards the Ojeg craftsman who was lined up, not far from where he stood.

"Ojeg, ma'am!" One of Ojeg's builders offered his services.

Cempaka nodded his head

Then he immediately went up behind her.

"Know the house of Wak Iyem in Trisi?" Ask Cempaka.

"Ooh, are you going to my house?"

"Yes"

Karmin widened his eyes to see Cempaka who climbed the ojeg without saying goodbye first to him.

He then stopped his motorbike and followed the Ojeg handyman who drove Cempaka to his home wak Iyem.

"Basic woman! It's hard on the ray! Just make emotions!" He muttered while racing his iron horse quickly, wanting to catch up with Cempaka.

"Dec? Why ride ojeg?" He shouted after his bike was close to the motorcycle of Ojeg craftsman.

"Min's? You why? Do you know this mbak?" Ask the Ojeg handyman, slow down the pace of his iron horse.

"He's my wife!" Karmin's shout beat the sound of the motor engine and also the wind blowing.

"What's? You don't joke! You're kan_"The Ojeg driver couldn't continue his words. Because, he hunted down his motorbike stopped by his motorbike Karmin.

"Sir, move on to my bike!" Cempaka was silent unmoved, he remained sitting behind the Ojeg handyman. He did not care at all for Karmin, it seems like the efficacy of his teacher Eyang Wali has begun to fade, maybe because it is far away?

"Mas, move!" Cempaka Commandments.

"Come deck! Move here!" Karmin.

"Commonly wrong! So I don't want to be with you! Before doing, you have to think first. Don't be gabred, follow lust!" Said the Ojeg handyman while pressing the gas lever, the motor drove back leaving Karmin who was upset.

"Trease! Champaka!" Mumbled annoyed.

He runs his bike again with emotion, the pace is firmer than before.

Ojeg who was riding by Cempaka, he left behind.

"Is this beautiful woman really Karmin's?" The Ojeg asked Cempaka, seemingly curious.

"Forced by my brother" Sahut Cempaka honestly.

"His sister is so beautiful "

Cempaka silently did not answer the words of his handyman Ojeg, he did not want to discuss his brother who made him become hurt and suffer and prolonged disappointment.

"Alhamdulillah... It has arrived" said the Ojeg handyman while stopping his motorcycle right in the yard of his home Wak Iyem.

"Alhamdulillah..." Mumbled Cempaka, he immediately got off the bike and immediately he paid the fare.

"Thank you..." Cempaka passed by leaving the Ojeg handyman and rushed into his home wak Iyem.

"Sama-sama" said.

Karmin's motorbike does not appear to be parked in the yard of his home Wak Iyem, whether he goes where he is.

"Where's karmin? How come! The motor isn't here? Where's she? He must have wandered, you bastard ! It's customary, was that beautiful mother really Karmin's wife? If so, does he not know that Karmin already has a wife. Why did she marry Karmin? " the Ojeg handyman muttered to himself staring at the back of Cempaka who passed into his house wak Iyem.

"There's so much love for him..." Said again.

While Cempaka had entered into his house wak Iyem, he went straight to the kitchen to meet Wak Iyem.

"Assynoltom..." Cempaka.

"No idea where" Cempaka sat in front of Wak Iyem after kissing the back of his hand wak Iyem full of respect.

"His brother went straight back to Bandung?" Ask Wak Iyem again.

" Yes wak" Cempaka said it was short."

" Neng just got back on the ojeg?"

Wak Iyem asked back with heart.

"Yes" Cempaka's answer was brief.

"Si Karmin, his behavior hasn't changed either!" Gerrutu Wak Iyem is upset.

Cempaka heard everything that Wak Iyem said. He did not want to ask Wak Iyem, only in his heart arose a few questions.

"Looks like Karmin's not a good guy"

" Why did Kak Kenari match me with him? Is because he already knows that Karmin is a bad man, and kak Kenari wants me to suffer from birth and inner. But, for what? What good is he if I'm miserable?" Cempaka Batin.

"Miskey?" Cempaka approached the middle-aged woman, then sat down beside her.

"Yes, why?" Netraya looked at Cempaka's loving face.

"Is Karmin's parents still around?" Cempaka asked, his round eyes staring back at Wak Iyem.

"Of course it's still there" he said honestly.

"Why wasn't I taken to Karmin's parents' house? Why am I not meeting them? Why are they brought here?" Some questions that make Wak Iyem confused looking for the answer.

"Emh, maybe not yet the time according to Karmin. But, later also certainly neng Cempaka in meeting with his in-laws. Already ah! Don't mind much, it can hurt later!" Wak Iyem answered immediately, he quickly switched the conversation, citing fear of Cempaka being sick.

Wak Iyem's answer certainly did not make his heart satisfied. It even made him curious.

"Where are Karmin's parents?"

"There, near the Jangga T-junction, does Cempaka want to go there?" Wak Iyem stared at Cempaka's gentle face.

"What's? Near the Jangga T-junction? Means close to his home mbak Siti" Cempaka was surprised.

"Neng Cempaka already know Siti's sister Karmin?" Wak Iyem was shocked to hear Cempaka mention Siti's name and her home.

"Yesterday, Siti came to Bandung to pick me up, last night she and her family asked to go down near the Jangga T-junction. If it is not wrong to name the village ci logog, yes the village ci logog uwak" Mataanya Cempaka sparkled.

" Ooh, yes, uwak just remembered. Siti is going there. Uwak was also invited, but uwak did not want to be afraid of drunk vehicles, later even so ngeribetin others he..." Wak Iyem chuckled half forcedly. His impression wanted to stop Cempaka from wanting to know about his parents Karmin.

"By yesterday uwak went there, to get to know my parents"

"Whenever you are beautiful, uwak also want to know your whole family"

"Iya uwak thanks uwak for accommodating me here. I should've stayed at her mother-in-law's house, not here"

"Just like neng, uwak is also Karmin's parents as well, uwak is Karmin's mother's brother. Besides, uwak doesn't have any children, maybe that's what Karmin means to bring you here"

"But, strangely, why am I not introduced to her parents? That's what amazes me and I don't understand, like there's something Karmin's hiding"

"Ah ah don't talk about it anymore! We're going to the back garden of Yu! We eat in the saung while enjoying the view, neng Cempaka does not know how beautiful the scenery behind the uwak house?" Uwak Iyem grabbed Cempaka's arm.

Cempaka did not reply, but he followed in his footsteps when Iyem headed to the back of his house.

Sure enough, such a beautiful sight of the Creator's painting unfolds there.

After the yam orchard owned by Wak Iyem, it is connected with a stretch of green rice fields bordering a beautiful hill.

The wind that blows as gently as it feels hit the smooth skin of Cempaka.

"Wooow! How lovely! God, God's creation is amazing." Cempaka exclaimed praise to the agonies of Allah SWT.

Meanwhile, Wak Iyem brought food to the saung beside his yam garden, unbeknownst to him Cempaka who was admiring the beauty of nature that lay before his eyes.

Wak Iyem sat in the saung while staring at Cempaka who was enjoying the beauty of nature, which lay before him.

"It looks like he's starting to forget his sadness, what a pity for your fate, son!"

Gumam wak Iyem's.

"Tomorrow or the day after you will know everything about Karmin, may your heart be steadfast and your soul be strong to accept all these trials" he muttered again, his net could not be separated to look at Cempaka's back.

For a time Cempaka could forget all the suffering he experienced by staring at the natural beauty of the Great Painting of the Creator.

However, in his deepest heart, the pain and suffering was still enthroned and ready to gnaw his soul and heart, buried in the depths of his heart that would soon surface, ready to destroy the life of Cempaka in the future.

It is tragic indeed the reality of life experienced by Cempaka, the beautiful girl of the village flower.
