In a city on the island of Sulawesi, a middle-aged man walked tired after work, he was as usual a laborer in a warehouse store building.he then sat down to unwind in a coffee shop subscription. the coffee shop was guarded by a woman in her 60s named mak item. Mak items good people, sometimes he free to eat and drink for a certain person or on a certain day.
"Son Jaya just came home?".why the item
"he Mak, bikinin coffee one yes, same anchovy rice".the male request called Jaya.
"wait a minute".answered Mak item.
before long, the order was ready, the man ate with his savor. yes anchovy rice made by Mak items is famous for delicious and cheap prices no more than ten thousand.reasonably many customers of small labor workers, the price is not more than ten thousand,the hawkers even the small-income motorcycle taxi drivers who eat there.
after finishing eating and drinking coffee, he immediately went back to his boarding place which he had been living in for approximately 4 years.
he is not very well known by his neighbors, in addition to going to work from morning to evening, until his boarding, he prefers to shut himself up, rarely gather and seem to close himself.His identity is also unclear,he lost his identity card.
Jaya is none other than Jain, a fugitive police man who is related to the murder and rape of his own brother-in-law, Johar. he moved from one city to another for 15 years because his savings had been drained to escape finally the last 4 years he was stranded alone in the city of Makassar with a different appearance, his habit of playing women has begun to be abandoned, one reason is that he has no money anymore because it is only enough to pay for his cheap rent and daily meals.
although Jain has escaped and is free outside the prison, but his soul still feels imprisoned, not free as it used to be because it has to hide from the apparatus and the community who recognize it, it is actually more torturous. plus every time always feel terrorized by the spirit of the johar.
That morning ,Jaya went back to work. he left on foot because indeed his work place is not too far plus he did not have a motor vehicle.when he was about to stand waiting to cross, waiting to cross, suddenly there were 2 cars that came at high speed from two opposite directions.one of the two vehicles was an open tub car carrying a fish unable to control its speed and finally inevitable the car rolled over and crashed into a passenger car coming from the opposite direction. Some of the victims were thrown from the vehicle and in a state of concern, some were still in the vehicle with the same condition, blood splattered everywhere, limbs separated from his body.when he saw this incident,Jaya was horrified to imagine what if his body like that, he was afraid of death, afraid of his sin in the past.he was again frightened and imagined the events of 15 years ago, Johar's heart came back to haunt him,he ran in fear, ran away and continued to run crying.until he arrived at a small Musala, he sat in front of him, crying as it were.
people passing in front of Musala were confused to see it.
***
a Musala marbot was working to clean up the Musala warehouse, suddenly he heard from the front of Musala someone was crying.he then came out and looked for the source of the sound, he said, he was confused to see a crying adult roaring like a child at the door of the musala.See again his quite roaring appearance increasingly made him wonder what makes this person cry. he then approached the man and asked "sir, why father?", jaya stopped crying at the question of the marbot named Mr. Salim. "let's go into the pack, not good like this, not good like this,you are being watched by people".add Mr. Salim again.
Jaya also followed Mr. Salim into the musala.suntil inside, he returned to crying as if.Pak Salim who saw it just sat beside him let jaya cry first until he felt calm
"cry sir until the father is calm, for while I live first yes sir, I want to finish some warehouse first.after the father is calm the father can tell me the problem of the father .or if can not tell me the same story, I can not tell you, tell all to Allah, Allah, the burden that you have will hopefully be reduced.
after pak salim left, jaya out to take ablution, he was a little confused because he had not done it for a long time.after that he went back in and began to pray.after praying he prayed, he prayed,at this time he again cried remembering all his sins in the past.his body began to feel tired, his eyes were damp and sleepy, he was asleep.
after waking up, he grabbed the hand of the person who woke him who was none other than Mr. Salim "i repent sir, I repent sir, I was wrong sir, I was wrong sir, please help me sir".
"Calm down, calm down sir".said Mr. Salim.
"please help me sir, Toloooong sir" beg him again while prostrating and crying.
"astagfirullah sir, I'm trying to help God, father, but you calm down first".Pak Salim embrace the jaya and back rub his back.
after calmly telling the situation, the burden, the story in the past. Mr. Salim just continued to listen without wanting to judge.
after finishing his complaint, he asked Salim again "What should I do sir to atone for my sins?".
mr. Salim also gave advice "i am not really a saint, I used to be a lot of mistakes.but I was quickly made aware and immediately repented and accounted for all my actions.Thus our lives will be much calmer". said Mr. Salim.
"i can only give advice, but still have age,immediately repent.please forgive Allah and also to those who have hurt his heart.let Allah alone who knows how sincerely he repents and wants to change.man can only judge.
"do I have to turn myself in, sir?".asked jaya again
"all is up to the father, who lives his own father" replied Salim sage.
after a while of thinking, I made a decision.
"let me go to the police station sir, I want to surrender myself, I can no longer live like this".please stay with Mr. Salim.
finally he was delivered by Mr. Salim to the police station, where he told him all his crimes.
a week later he was sent back to his native village to be tried and detained there.
once in his village, he apologized to all the Johar family and also to the villagers for doing injustice.Some people scorned some of them again to accept the apology, including the Johar family.
Maya is happy Jaya or Jain wants to surrender and get the punishment in accordance with his actions, so he hopes that Johar's spirit can be calm and not disturb the villagers again.
