Not as Beautiful as Angan

In the street

"Waalaikumsalam, good then. There, what are you waiting for?"

It was beautiful to hear Yanto say goodbye to going home.

"Don't forget to say my regards!" Said Yanto before he passed out of his house bu Sekar.

"Yes, yes, I don't need to say also of course he has heard" Gumam Indah.

Yanto also passed from his house bu Sekar, although by force.

"Alhamdulilbaullabybbil alamiin. Finally, it also broke his eggs" said Mr. Teak excited.

"Alhamdulillah, go also stupid and brash guests" Bu Sekar and Cempaka were no less happy.

One big problem they've been through.

While stepping his legs, several times he looked back, towards his house Bu Sekar. He hoped Cempaka would come out of his house to stand on the porch staring at his disappearance, as he had liked to do before.

But he didn't get that. Her hand, the beautiful Cempaka, was no longer visible.

His smile Cempaka who made his heart thrash it, had already moved away from him.

"Why it's too late to meet him. Had I not been married at that time, surely that smile of Cempaka would have continued to expand for me" Yanto muttered regretting his marriage.

Sometimes his head looks back, even though he has far stepped away from his home Bu Sekar. However, that speck of hope was still stored in the deepest corner of his heart.

After Yanto's departure, Indah immediately approached her family bu Sekar while developing her smile.

"Assalamualaikum" he said.

"Waalaikumsalam, finally the omadokokok oload went too. You are wonderful Beautiful! I'm so glad you're here. Try if you are not here, of course, the mother who has to argue with him" Ms. Sekar welcomed Indah with a warm embrace.

"Ah, mom could have. What is clear is the words of the mother who is very deep in her heart" Sahut Indah while not losing her lips develops a smile of victory.

"Thank you, my friend, you are my best and most meaningful friend to me" Cempaka embraced him affectionately.

Bu Sekar and Pak Jati also approached them, then they embraced Cempaka and Indah affectionately.

Really am! That was a happy ending.

Later that night, Indah and Cempaka set off together to go to work.

That night, Yanto was nowhere to be seen at his workplace. It seems like he didn't go to work, for whatever reason, there's no news and no news. Heripun, who was a machine with him, did not know it.

After work the next day, Cempaka and Indah stopped by the market first, there was something they had to buy.

In front of the apothecary, there were those who blocked his path.

A man who is none other than him is Yanto.

" Cempaka! I'm kamgen with you!" He said, the distance that was too close to create an unpleasant aroma that came from Yanto's mouth, clearly smelled by Cempaka and Indah.

"God! It stinks, what's this smell?" With reflexes, Cempaka and Indah immediately closed his nose.

"Cempaka, why won't you accept my proposal?" He asked without embarrassment, without looking around the bustling with vehicles going back and forth, and also the people passing by.

Cempaka and Indah more tightly closed his nose and mouth. They were not strong with an unpleasant scent coming out from inside Yanto's mouth.

"That stinks of liquor, Cempaka! He was used to drinking intoxicating and illicit liquor. Therefore, Ranti often cry because of her behavior. Fortunately you were immediately saved" Out of nowhere came, and out of nowhere, suddenly Yeti was standing next to Cempaka.

"Well! The liquor? Does he like to get drunk?"

Cempaka and Indah were very shocked, hearing that the evil of Yanto was not just willing to cheat on his wife. But, this is more than fatal.

"Yes, that's the truth. Before working with us, he was a general force scalper, drinking and drinking and gambling had become his habit. That's why when he was seen applying for a job, I was surprised. Because, from the beginning he did not want the right work, but had been asked by his parents as well. Now, you have seen it for yourself and I am not making it up, not lying to you" At length, the Yeti explains the real Yanto.

"Yeti, once again I give you a big thank you. Because, it was you who opened my eyes so that I could see the truth" Cempaka immediately greeted him happily.

"Yes together, I'm glad you can be free from this devil's entanglement, unlike Ranti who was married and had children. He said he was not careful when he wanted to accept it, yes finally, this is how it became. He is restrained in a household life that is very far from happy" continued Yeti again.

"Cempaka, I hope you don't hear the chattering of the Yeti. He is envious of us, because he claps one hand, he is not avenged by my love" said Yanto, making up the story.

"What did you say? Amit-amit's a baby if I fall in love with you!" Yeti was furious to hear Yanto slandering him.

"Before Cempaka, I want to go to the pharmacy first" Yanto said.

Cempaka just cuek, he pretended not to hear it.

He was seriously talking to the Yeti, the savior.

A few minutes later, Yanto came out of the pharmacy with a white plastic bag.

He also sat on the sidewalk of the road. Then he took out two small white bottles.

I saw the alcohol written there.

"That's see! Chrysalis, Beautiful!" The Yeti poked at Cempaka's arm, and showed them something that was going on in front of them.

Cempaka and Indah immediately turned his head, his eyes following the direction of the Yeti.

"What is he doing?" Cempaka asked the Yeti, he did not understand what Yanto was doing.

"Look at it later!" Yeti Sahut.

Without hesitation, without any awkwardness and without shame, Yanto spilled the contents of the two white plastic bottles into a small plastic bag. Then he tied the end tightly. After that, he bit his plastic tip to make a hole.

A few weeks later, he drank the white liquor with his rest.

"Well! He drank! It wasn't water to drink" Cempaka took a few steps back, with a terrified face.

"That's what he is, drinking intoxicating liquor. But, at a cheap price" said Yeti.

While Beautiful, from earlier she just watched, with a gaping mouth open and eyes that bulged in shock not dumbstruck.

He could not comment, he only regretted his actions which had kept Cempaka close to Yanto, for the past two months.

It is beautiful to imagine how tormented and suffering Cempaka would have been, had the Yeti not told him, or been late to tell him.

"Cempaka, forgive me!" Lovely crying while hugging Cempaka tightly.

"Already, already!" Sahut Cempaka while rubbing the head of Indah who infiltrated his shoulders.

"I didn't think for a moment that his behavior was so. Beautiful, we're home yu! My stomach feels nauseous, and my head also feels dizzy, I am not strong with the smell coming from the drink he was enjoying" Cempaka pulled the arm Indah, invited him to go home.

"Yes, Cempaka. I want to go home, too, so sleepy!" Say Yeti while yawning.

"Yes please! We also want to go home, again thank you my good friend" Cempaka said as he hugged the Yeti.

They passed from that place, to their homes.

Yanto's body looked limp, he stepped his legs slightly staggering like a drunk. Maybe it was the influence of the alcohol he drank.

"Beautiful, I'm afraid! He's after us" Cempaka shuddered in fear. She held Beautiful tightly.

"Don't mind! Let it go, we pretend not to hear it! We should speed up our steps, so as not to be overtaken by it" Lovely slightly pulled her hand Cempaka, so as to immediately get away from the pursuit of Yanto who had begun to stagger because of the drunk.

"We'll take ojeg, Indah. Let's quickly get to the house" Cempaka was frightened, his eyes were busy looking for ojeg passing by. But, none of the ojeg that passed there.

No public transport has yet passed the road leading to their homes. Only Ojeg and delman are vehicles that pass on the road that leads to their homes.

"We're riding delman!" Bring Cempaka.

"Delman likes to be grumpy, I don't want to! He'll catch up with us later, I'm afraid!" Cempaka began to cry fearfully to pursue the same Yanto, who still tried to pursue him, even though he was shocked by the influence of alcohol he drank.

"Don't panic! Calm down first! God willing, we will not be overtaken, we will move normally, while he stumbled, staggering because it is influenced by alcohol, right! We'd better find a delman who wants to be full of passengers, so don't ngetem. How's it?" Lovely trying to calm his friend who was panicking because of fear.

"Yes" Cempaka nodded his head in agreement with what Indah said.

They then searched for a delman that already had passengers.

One by one the rows of delman he saw, mostly still on empty, no passengers.

"What is this, beautiful? Delman's on empty all" Cempaka kept complaining and looked back, seeing Yanto who kept chasing after him.

"That's the front-most delman, it looks like there's already two passengers! Go, Cempaka!" Beautiful exclaimed while pulling his arm Cempaka, to approach the delman who was in the front row.

"Come, up!" Indah told Cempaka to go up first.

"You sit here! Be blocked by other passengers. So, he couldn't see you right away!" Beautiful set Cempaka, so that his seat was blocked by other passengers.

"Yes, yes" Cempaka immediately occupied the empty seat, which was shown by Indah.

Then he looked back again, Yanto still seemed to be trying to chase after him.

"There are already four passengers, let's get on the road!" Beautiful told her to walk immediately.

"Awhile neng, one more person" said coachman delman.

"Look at the mang, we're in a hurry. If until we go down, no one goes up again, then I will pay for it" said Indah.

"Well then, come on!" The coachman delman agreed.

With just one pull, the reins. The horse that pulled the delman that we were riding, immediately stepped on its feet, then ran on the cue of his coachman, to drive away from the place.

Along with passing it

The Delman they were riding, the,

my heart started to calm down a little. Because, Yanto who was chasing him began to lag behind.

"Alhamdulillah, we are already a bit away from him" Cempaka was a little relieved of his feelings.

Delman drove calmly, as calm began to infiltrate into the heart of his heart Cempaka.

"He's the farther we leave, Cempaka" said Indah happy.

"It's beautiful" Cempaka also looks happy.

The danger that had been a threat, now he could slowly leave behind.

"Trease! Wait for me!" Meanwhile, Yanto was still shouting to call Cempaka with a stagger due to the alcohol he drank.

"He seems to be drunk" Someone who was passed by Yanto commented.

"It seems, right. He was drunk. He called out Cempaka's name from earlier. Is that Cempaka who he is?" Ask someone else, who happened to be there.

"Where would a woman like a man who is drunk?" Said a mother who was shopping in a store.

"Yes, mom. Amit-amit baby jabang"

Said the shopkeeper who was serving the mothers.

"Just stop here, mang!" Indah told the coachman to stop his horse, right in front of an alley leading to his house Cempaka.

After descending and paying the fare, Cempaka and Indah looked back, they saw Yanto's whereabouts.

"He is invisible! Let's go home!" Take Indah while holding the hand of Cempaka, his best friend.

"Come on! I'm sleepy and hungry" said Cempaka while holding his stomach that began to rumble.

"Sama, I'm also very hungry. The cattle worms in my stomach have been thrashing for food" Seloroh Indah.

"Ha, ha" They both laughed so loosely.

"You eat at my house, yeah! Let me tell you about the incident in front of the pharmacy. I want to tell my mother. Surely my mother felt very lucky because, her beautiful daughter had just been spared from that terrible distress"

Cempaka said with passion.

"Wow! Praise yourself" Lovely flicking Cempaka's big nose.

"Yes, I am beautiful. I'm a girl, when I was handsome"

Cempaka with joy.

Her jolly nature had already reappeared.

"Alhamdulillah, my best friend has returned cheerful again" said Indah happy.

"Assalamualaikum, my mother came home" Upon arrival in front of her house, Cempaka said his greetings before he entered her house.

"Waalaikumsalam, you have come home apparently" Ms. Sekar immediately welcomed her.

"We're hungry, ma'am!" Cempaka and Indah said together.

"Ouch! You two starved apparently? You guys are hungry, you sich! Even wandering first. Where were you guys going?" Bu Sekar asked.

"We're going to the market first, mom"

"Ooh, pantesans. Where's the groceries?"

"It!" Cempaka showed me a bag of crackles full of his shopping.

"Thank you, kids" Ms. Sekar greeted her happily.

Cempaka and Indah laughed at his mother's behavior.
