"duh..Hungry..!!"

The Day That Noven's Stomach Beeped, Signs of Hunger Are Having It .

"Dam..My Money Is Over, Where It Doesn't Work Anymore, Savings Also Doesn't Exist .Yep..Allah..!!"

Noven No Longer Has A Dime Of Money .

Because Ever Since He Was Fired From Cleaning Service Jobs On A Campus, He Became Unemployed Long Enough ,And His Last Salary As Cleaning Service Also His Savings Have Been Done To Send Money To His Parents Also Make Job Applications And To Eat It Everyday .

Noven Also Works As A Building Kenek With Kiris, But Only For A Few Days Only .

After That He No Longer Worked In The Building, Now He Returns To Being An Unemployed, And Salary From Building Work That Also Exhausts .

"duh..How Can I Eat !? Hungry Once From Yesterday Not Eating !"

Kuluh Noven Yang From Yesterday He Did Not Eat, Then Noven Keep Thinking To Eat Something .

"Oh..Yes !! Try Checking All Pockets Pants And Jacket Pockets, There May Still Be Money Tucked !"

Then Noven Sneakily Checked Every Pouch Of His Pants And Jackets With Huge Expectations of Finding His Remaining Money .

And Surely He Found Money Worth Five Thousand Rupiahs That Looked Shabby In His Trouser Pouch .

"Alhamdulillah..Thank You God, You have Helped Me !"

Saying Noven With Gratitude And So Joyful, Finding Money Worth Five Thousand Rupiahs That Looked Shabby .

☆

Then Noven Directly Go To Buy White Rice for Five Thousand Rupiah Which Of course Does Not Have Lauk Secuil Pun .

Then The Rice Was Also Located Inside A Kiris Giving Plate .

"Although Only White Rice, Just Eat With Chicken Lauk Burn, Must Feel Good !

Reveals Noven l, Then Noven Also Eat Rice White Without Secuil Lauk .

Noven Eats The White Rice Very Slowly Because of His Imagination That Makes It Like Eating White Rice With Chicken Lauk Burn His Favorite Food ,Although Actually What He Eats No More Than Just White Rice .

☆

"duh..It Doesn't Feel Good to Banget After Eating No Smoking ! The Money Was Just Five Thousand, Has Also Been Over ! How Can I Smoke !?"

It Turns Out Noven Problem Is Not Enough to Be There .

He Feels Dazed Because He Usually Smokes After Eating, But This Time He Does Not Have Cigarettes Or Even Money Percent .

"Oh..Yes ! In Ashtray There Are Still Many !!"

Murmured Noven Then Towards His Smoking Ashtray And He Sees Remains of Cigarette Butts In His Ashtray .

Without Thinking Long, Noven Immediately Stir His Match Fire Into The Cigarette Butt And Suck It .

After Sucking The Cigarette Butts He Also Sleeps Soundly .

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

To The Next Day Noven Returns With A Burning Hungry .

But This Time He Really Has No Money, He Has Even Checked All Pockets Pants, His Shirt And Jacket , But He Didn't Find the Rest of Money A Dime .

☆

"duh..Hungry once ! How Can You Eat !? Money is Really Exhausted !.

Akh's..Did You Just Go Out !?

Duh..But Hungry once, No Power Makes Walking, Motor Oil Also Runs Out ! But If Ku Di Kos Continues Also Can't Do Anything, Akh..Mending Me Out Just While Looking for Work, Maybe I'll Meet Money On The Road Later !"

Rintih Noven With His Little Hope .

Then Noven Follows His Heart Voice To Get Out Of His Hostel Room To Find A Job By Hoping To Meet Money Scattered On The Street .

Noven Pun Exit His Hostel Just Walk Looking For Work, By Going to Every Dining Place, Stores Also Stores That He Passed By Foot .

☆

But As He Passes A Road, Noven Sees A Cherry Tree With Its Fruits So Thick .

"Gee..There is Cherry Tuh..! Where is the Red-Red Thicker Again .

Mm..Ambilin Sajalah !! It's Good to Make Stomach Odd"

Mumbled Noven, Then He Takes The Red Cherry Fruit And Eat As Much As Possible .

After Feeling Enough, Then Noven Go Continue His Journey Back to Visit Restaurants, Stores And Shops To Find Work .

In His Journey Noven Also Found Water Guava Trees That Fruit Also Thick With Red Color .

"Alhamdulillah..Mang Basis Rejeki !! Take Also Lah Jambunya Make Meal !"

Saying Noven In Heart, Then He Climbed That Water Bamboo Tree And Eated The Fruit With So Much .

After Feeling Satisfied Eating So Many Water Guests, Then Noven Descends From The Water Guava Tree .

☆

After Being Tired Enough To Walk To Find Work, Then Noven Decides To Return To His Costs .
