"I'm sorry about my people's attitude." Said Mr. RT representing Sarman.

"It's okay, Jang! it's common, if anyone comes forward, there will be people who are envious." replied Bah Abun while sitting back down, Not the slightest look of angry look on his face.

Again busy chatting, Zuhri's wife who asked by Galih to prepare consumption.he began to deliver drinking water with other foods.he apologized because the time was very tight, he was very busy, so that the banquet was a bit late, but the residents did not bother about it, they began to enjoy the banquet held by Mbah Abun.

All residents who attended the assembly, they chatted with each other to share the experience of life, while enjoying the food served.at 21:30 finally the event was completed, one by one of the residents began to say goodbye, at the end of the day, to return to their respective homes, as well as Mbah Abun and Ranti They also say goodbye to go home.

"Well, Bah. such a person?" ranti asked as they walked home

"What-like?" asked Mbah Abun who was walking behind Ranti because she was carrying a flashlight.

"Like Mang Sarman."

"Udah ah, don't discuss people's ugliness, not good!" teach Mbah Abun to his son.

"But Ranti is still upset, Mbah!"

"No need to be upset, you just focus on your business, with your work." replied Mbah Abun although he also felt the same thing , but the name of the parents, but the parents, they are good at hiding it in front of their children. They do not want their children to have hatred for others.

Finally they continued to walk, without any chatter related to Sarman. accompanied by the sound of crickets that sounded from the left right side of the road, left side of the road, from a distance there was a sound of frogs probably from the direction of the rice field.

Arriving at the house Ranti also asked permission to enter her room first, while Mbah Abun accompanied by Abu Yayah chatted in the middle room.

"What's the bah?"

"Mom's habit, group affairs.may indeed be done like that, so that the emotional relationship between buyers is equally tightly woven craftsmen." explained Mbah abun.

"Really! we do not continue to milk his energy, but we forget his rights.Abah will occasionally give gifts to craftsmen who excel, so that other craftsmen feel motivated." suggested Abu Yaah.

"Good idea, Ambu! but Abah got a little bit of a problem."

"What problem?" abu Yayah asked while looking in wonder at her husband.

Mbah Abun also began to tell about the events in the assembly of the taklim, when Sarman cornered him. he told everything from beginning to end, so that his wife understood. "nah, once Ambu the story." bah Abun ended the story.

"The more here, the more Sarman becomes, the more Bah!" abu Yayah's response after hearing her husband's story.

"Yes Abah was confused, Abah must what the man should be."

"Not to be confused, Mbah! we don't have to deal with bad people like us, let it go! if it still spoils us with talk, it feels too waste of energy if serving people like that."

"Really ambu!" bah Abun answered who had no solution to face someone like Sarman.

After feeling the conversation between the husband and wife was finished, Mbah Abun invited Abu Yayah into the room, to rest first. readying the energy to do the activity The next morning.

A week passed from the group meeting. Sarman who still has a grudge with Mbah Abun, he increasingly feels hatred for his village neighbors because since the meeting, the citizens began to stay away from his family, so Sarman felt alienated.

"Kang!" Call Darmi in the afternoon, as usual they will enjoy the twilight by sitting on the terrace of the house.

"Why?" sarman asked after throwing smoke out of his mouth.

"Yes Akang also felt like that, now rarely people who want to talk to Akang.they always reasoned to avoid Akang." replied Sarman who felt the same way.

"Don't keep quiet dong kang! do what it is."

"Akang confused what else to do, Akang has influenced the citizens to get out of the group, but the effort failed. Akang first wanted to beat him, the hambun was saved by Mr. RT." sarman replied while taking a slow breath, then his eyes focused towards the courtyard overgrown with blooming flowers.

"It seems, if Abun's family does not exist, maybe our lives will be calm huh, kang?" darmi started to fantasize.

"How do you mean?" ask Sarman who doesn't understand.

"Yes, if Abun dies! maybe our lives will be calm." answered Darmi who is not closed again, he explained the unaklaknya clearly

"Yes but confused!"

"Don't confuse kang! because everyone has their own weaknesses. I seek that weakness to take away his life."

"I don't dare kill people!" sarman replied, who still has common sense.

"Will Akang continue to live haunted by his family, does Akang want our family life is not peaceful, because there is a family Abun that?"

Hearing his wife's words, Sarman was silent for a moment. digesting what was conveyed by his wife, while turning back the annoyance caused by Mbah Abun. starting from his son who often locked himself up because of embarrassment not to be married to Galih. until now he himself felt alienated by the villagers.

"How about Kang," asked Darmi as if impatiently.

"Yes really! if he can't make it, then we'll have to end it."

"Well so! it's just the name of Darmi's husband." replied Darmi, with a smile full of happiness, because of what her husband suggested to hear.

"Yes it starts tomorrow, I want to find his weakness." replied Sarman while sucking back the skirt0k in his hand, then throw the smoke up.

Finally, the two of them also dissolved in chat chatter disfiguring the Bah Abun family, until finally the magrib bedug was heard from the direction of the mosque, making them both enter the house. Sarman who usually goes to the mosque, has been in the last few days, he does not pray congregation in the mosque. because it feels bad with the gazes of the people who hate him.

In the days that followed, Sarman continued to stalk Mbah Abun looking for his weakness, to carry out his evil intentions.true the saying, when there is a will there must be a way. But unfortunately Sarman's will, the will to harm others.One day Mbah Abun early in the morning was getting ready to go to the city, Sarman who knew not to waste the opportunity, he devised a plan so that his evil intentions would go unnoticed by others.

After knowing Mbah abun left the village of Ciandam, he rushed home to take a machete.

"Where are you going Kang?" ask Darmi who saw her husband is getting ready.

"We're going to take the firewood into the forest. Our firewood is gone." Sarman replied that he did not want his wife to know his evil intentions, because he was afraid that one day his wife would divulge the secret that would be done

"Yes, really Kang! If you can, the firewood is dry, so it is flammable." replied Darmi.

"Yes, please pack rice, just prepare drinking water." Pinta Sarman.

"Tumben-tumben Kang! I want to take the firewood for a long time."

"Iya Akang plans to collect firewood today, tomorrow morning I will start bringing it. to make it enough for the next year" replied Sarman still lying.

After hearing the explanation from her husband. Darmi also began to prepare supplies as requested by Sarman. after the supplies were ready Sarman also asked permission to take firewood.
