Pig Slamming
10 Mang Sarspu



"The ashes have run away, Bah! It's okay, isn't it?" asked Jana who told the existence of the boar that had attacked Mbah Abun.


"That's okay! just that Abah was shocked, the same fear of pigs is so great." replied Bah Abun brigidik horrified, recalling the events that had just happened to him.


"Let me see Abah's stomach! Who knows if there are injuries." suggested Jana who was worried about the safety of the old man.


Mbah Abun according to, he unbuttoned his clothes, there were small red scratches visible.but after careful attention, it was not a scratch caused by the fangs of the boar earlier, but after careful attention, it was not a scratch caused by the fangs of the boar, rather it was a scratch obtained, when Mbah Abun fell from the coconut tree.


After paying attention to his body, there were no heavy injuries. Abun was slowly trying to stand up.


"Where are you going, bah?" asked Jana who was astonished.


"Go home Jang! later if here long time, Abah was attacked again Pig." replied Mbah Abun. He continued walking away splitting the crowd of people surrounding him.


Seeing the departure of Mbah Abun who survived the pig attack, the residents who helped him began to disperse to return to their homes! but there are some residents who are still curious, with the development of pigs who fled.they also follow the hunters who had been chasing into the forest.Bah Abun he returned to the guard of the ticket, and, to take the goods sold. after receiving an apology from the committee, Mbah Abun also continued the journey back to the direction of Sukaraja village, while continuing to offer the goods sold.


The sun that has begun to dim, the heat is not as hot as this afternoon, making anyone would feel at home playing outside the house, to enjoy the beauty of the creator. but different from an old man who was walking on the Path, while carrying a rice cooker made of bamboo. He walked while thinking about the incident that had just happened to him, because he was very surprised, why the pig did not hurt him. long thought but the old man did not get an answer, until finally he arrived at the stall that was in the fork in the road.


"Home home again, bah! watch the babi?" Salamah asked who saw the arrival of Mbah Abun.


"Yes Bi! it's almost fucking Abah!" bah Abun replied while keeping the goods, then he sat on the bench that had been prepared.


"What fuck, bah? where do Jana and Dadun go, why don't they go home together?" tanya Salamah stared fixedly at the man who was outside her stall.


Before telling the story, Mbah Abun took the drinking water first, to relieve thirst after a long journey. After his body returned fresh, Mbah Abun took a deep breath, so that he could get rid of his thirst, then he began to tell all the events that happened to him, when he was watching a pig fight show.


"Oh God! how can it be like that, but really Abah is not hurt in the slightest?" salamah said after hearing the story of Mbah Abun which is very sad. He asked like that, probably feeling worried about the state of the person telling the story.


"No Bi! But that's it! his name is also bad, how else. Oh yea! by the way here the sale of rice is not Bi! You see Abah is hungry." asked Mbah Abun, his stomach was filled this morning before leaving his house, now sound as if asking for sajen.


"I only sell fried Mbah! I do not sell rice, there was also a little rice has been eaten by me! if Abah wants to wait, then come home to my house, because here I do not cook rice." replied Salamah, it is true that he only sells fried foods, he Rarely cook rice in his stall. usually he also if he wants to eat, likes to be ushered by his daughter who is female.


"No need, Bi! then I eat fried food!" said Mbah Abun, take fried bananas that have been cold.


"Yes already! Abah ate a whole fried meal! Abah does not have to pay. I'll close soon! Honey if there's any left." Answer the Salamah who feels pity.


Mbah Abun nodded, but if to get free, it felt He could not accept. because he also knew that the sale was using capital.


"Oh yeah, where's the house?" ask Salamah to break the silence.


"Ciandam Village!"


"Oh God! is that far away Bah? according to the news I heard, from here to Ciandam It takes three to four hours.if you are from here at this hour, maybe Isya new time huh? Nyampe to go there." said Salamah who looks surprised, after knowing the address of his customer.


"No! Abah did not want to go home, Abah had come here to see Abah's friend, in Sukaraja village. Auntie knows a guy named Sorpu! his full name is Syarifudin." explained Bah Abun.


"Why did you meet someone like that?"


"That's how, Bi!"


"No! nope! I'm sorry I spoke wrong." said Salamah, who looked away, like she was hiding something.


"How much is bi?" Ask Bah Abun who is ready to return to continue the journey.


"Already Abah does not have to pay, if you want to go to the village of Sukaraja mending Abah now depart, afraid of the kesorean. Who has a house does not exist." Salamah suggested.


"Can't be like that! Aunty is selling capital package." refused Mbah Abun who is both a seller.


"Already! do not have to pay Mbah. I want to close the shop first." said Salamah while starting to tidy up the rest of the sale.


"Really, this?" tanya Mbah Abun made sure.


"Totally Abah!" salamah answered with a glance for a moment, then continued his work without concern for Mbah Abun again.


"Yes already! thank ye. I want to ask you one more Bi!  mang sarfu's house is still there, right?" ask Mbah Abun before leaving.


"Yes bah! the biggest, and most luxurious house in Sukaraja village." obviously Salamah made Bah Abun frown, because to his knowledge Mang sarfu house, is the most ugly and smallest house in Sukaraja village.


"Don't his house used to be the smallest?"


"Yes, before he got lost, already! now Abah is leaving, later. Because the night he works." throw Salamah out with a loud tone of voice.


Getting the person to talk to seems to dodge, and corner his best friend. Mbah Abun was once again saying goodbye, then he took back his merchandise, he quickly walked towards the bottom, down the hill. Because of the location of Sukaraja Village, under Salamah stalls.


Surely what Salamah was worried about, because when Mbah Abun reached the village of Sukaraja, there was a sound of magrib bedug from the direction of the mosque that was hit, indicating that everyone must stop their activities, he said, to worship the Creator.


Mbah Abun continued to walk down the large street, heading west until he finally stopped at one of the houses that corresponded to what the shopkeeper said. the house that was once small and dilapidated even to be supported by bamboo trees, because it was tilted, now it is far different.The house looks magnificent, even though it is only made of wood. and when compared to the house is the largest house in the village of Sukaraja, but what makes Bah Abun feel surprised, the house still looks dark, no lighting comes out of the house. Other houses have turned on their damar lights.


With hesitation, Mbah Abun began to approach the magnificent house.then he said his greetings, shortly after saying his greetings, came a woman who was the same age as Mbah Abun. Maybe it's only a few years difference.


"Sorry who you're looking for?" ask the woman.


"The Sarpunya is there, Bi! I'm Mbah Abun, Marni's cook forgot, same me?" bah Abun introduced himself.


"Geez This is really Abah, sorry Marni does not recognize Abah, because it is dark, so Marni does not clearly see Abah continue to groom Abah now different from the previous one." said the woman named Marni who felt bad with her lack of welcome. But it was not entirely Marni's fault, because Mbah Abun was like that the reality, now that is much different when often playing to the house of Mang Sarpu.


"It's okay! Is Sarpunya around? I want to stay here. Can you stay here?"


Asked like that Marni seemed hesitant to answer, because there were some things that could not be explained to her guest.


"If you can't stay here!abah just wants to sleep at the patrol post." said Bah Abun after not getting an answer from the host.


"Can! can bah! come on in, my husband hasn't come home, he said he wants to go to town, but until now he hasn't come home. if you want Abah just wait!" Marni answered as if forced


After that Marni also invited her guests, to enter the house, which looks still dark. He asked permission first, to go to the kitchen, get drinking water for his guests, and turn on the Damar lights.


But long wait, Marni did not return, meet Mbah Abun. Even the situation outside is getting darker, because the time of Maghrib also passed very far.


Mbah Abun Can only resign, with the fate he experienced.the fate that was always miserable, this afternoon his life was almost lost by wild boar, now he was abandoned by the host he was visiting.


We postpone the story of Mbah Abun who again felt sad.we discuss where Marni actually went. earlier when Mbah Abun came, Actually he was reluctant to accept his guest. but given the kindness of Mbah Abun in the past, he could not refuse.when Mbah Abun was about to stay at his house, he was forced to agree with Mbah Abun's request
