The next morning, early in the morning Mbah Abun who had planned to find Ranti's whereabouts.he was ready to wear a black shirt, and pants Pangsi in line with the Color of his clothes, he was ready to wear black, don't forget his proud cowboy hat he put on his head.

"Mom, Abah wants to find the whereabouts of our child first, you at home do not forget to eat, do not forget to take care of yourself, Do not let the pain sink, do not let Abah When later home, when later on, ambu is still sleeping. You have to be healthy, you have to be strong" Bah Abun said to his wife who was in the room.

"Please Abah...! I wish Abah could find our son!."

After everything was finished, Mbah Abun who had been groomed neatly, he went out of the house and then went to the Road that connects Ciandam Village with other villages.

The morning sun was not yet visible, but it was already emitting its rays, so that in the eastern horizon looks golden yellow.roost roosters continue to crow in Sahuti with goats that ask for food.The birds began to chirp, while jumping from one branch to another, dropping dew water attached to the ends of the leaves.

Mbah Abun continued to walk to the nearest village, with Ciandam Village, until he finally arrived in Cisarua village, he began to surround the village while continuing to ask about his missing son. But unfortunately in the first village visited by Mbah Abun, no one knows.

After the village of Cisarua Habis combed not left, there is no place that was not visited by Mbah Abun. The middle-aged man then continued the journey to the village of Kebon Jati. Mbah Abun does not care about fatigue, Mbah Abun does not care about fatigue, he continues to walk to find Ranti.

Arriving at Kebon Jati Village, Mbah Abun did the same thing, asking the people he met, about the whereabouts of his son. But unfortunately in Kampung Kebon Jati is also the same as in the village of Cisarua, the people who live in the village, do not know the existence of Ranti.

Mbah Abun continued to walk from one village to another, continuing to ask from one person to another. There is no word tired for him, he said, His heart was already round he would not go home before finding the whereabouts of his son. For days Mbah Abun continued to walk, when night fell, he also rested in the stalls or hitchhiking at the homes of residents.

The days passed, so that it had been almost half a month Mbah Abun continued to walk looking for the existence of Ranti. The supplies he brought began to run out, his body began to feel very tired, let alone Mbah Abun is not as young as before, who has a very strong physique. But it was a pity that the search time was that long, with such an incredible sacrifice. Ranti son has not been found, everyone who was met just answered not to know, or said ooooh, because they just knew that there was a girl who was missing. until finally one day he arrived at one of the stalls, who did not know what the village was called. Bah Abun was sitting on a long bench made of bamboo logs, to fill his stomach that felt hungry, while spending his last provisions.

Before long ordering, a plate of rice was served, with side dishes sober, understand the stalls in the village are not in accordance with the stalls in the city. Mbah Abun, he ate so greedily that finally the one plate of rice was gone. After eating he took a sip of water in the glass, then he took a packet of cigarettes that he deliberately brought from home, a pack of cigarettes that had stayed one more stick. without a second thought, he started lighting matches and then burning the cigarette.

"Sorry Bi, I want to send a message to aunt" Bah Abun said after throwing smoke in his mouth.

Hearing his customers talking like that, the aunt shifted her seat, approaching the door. The shopkeeper was seen with Sigap about to receive what was delivered by Mbah Abun, who was not the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was the one who was speaking, as we know at that time the staller who became the spreader of accurate news. Auntie stall looked towards Mbah Abun like a journalist, who was listening to the explanation of the source.

"Include me, my name is Abun, if in my village I am famous for the call Abah or Abah Abun. I have a girl whose age has entered adolescence.not that I am proud and arrogant but the reality is that, because many people who admit that my daughter is very beautiful, because, so that many young people in my village, even the neighboring village are interested in the Princess only wayangnya."

"What is the name of the prophet?"

"My son named Ranti, now there is no. he left the house without saying goodbye first, explained my daughter ran away from home."

"Holooooooh...! How can it be like that, where are you going, how can you until your child has been caught leaving the house?"

"I was with my wife going to town, attending an invitation from a business partner who married off her child. Now I want to send a message to Auntie, whoever finds my son, please take the girl to the village of Ciandam, later I will love an infinite gift."

"If the one who delivered my daughter was a girl, I would make her my son's sibling because my son was an only child, had no older brother, no younger sister."

"How about the one who finds, who delivers a man."

"Old man, what young man?" Answer Mbah Abun reversing the question.

"Teen....!"

"If it is a teenager, then I will marry him to my daughter.if the usher is an old man, then I will make him as his brother.if the man is under the age of my child, if my child, then it will be made his sister.I will not be picky, but if the old man is a widower, then I will still marry my son."

"What if the man who delivered it, didn't like Abah's son?"

"Don't want to marry my son like that?" Mbah Abun.

"Yes yuragan...!"

"Ooooh....! If there is such a person who does not want to be raised to be my son's brother, or does not want to be married to my son, then I will give the person who delivered it, a sack of money, a gift, padi one room and sheep one cage.most importantly they want to deliver my son to the village of Ciandam.maybe that much message I convey Bi!" bah Abun explained, He spoke like that so that what he said could get to other people, at least people who shop at the aunty's stall, he said, could tell that He was looking for his son, so Abun did not have to bother to preach about the competition that was about to begin.

"Oh so....! what are the characteristics of the missing princess?"

"My son is tall, his skin color is a bit whitish yellow, just like his mother when he was young. My son's face, round like a full moon. his eyes are rather large with clean eyeballs, his eyebrows are thick with feathers, his eyes are flickering upwards, nose is sharp, cheek skin is soft. if his hair, bushy, straight with a deep black color. If my son is talking he is a bit slurred, if smiling cheek on the right looks to go a little inside, his favorite food is spicy food, if he should eat sambal. his favorite shirt is a pink shirt" explained Bah Abun at length.

"If the picture is like that, it means that the son of the boss is very beautiful...!"

"Yes Bi.....! Indeed that's how it is, even I think the child is the most beautiful woman in the world, beating the beauty of her mother hehehe..."

"Yes, I will help spread this good news as well as people who come to visit my shop. And hopefully this can be the bridge to the discovery of Princess Spirits, and now hopefully Princess Abah is in good health." Said the Aunt who looks inconsistent, sometimes calling Abah sometimes call the boss.

"Amen....! Thank you, Oh yes Bi...! It's money to pay for my food, and it's leftovers from me, all for my aunt.it's counted as down payment or city language as DP. Because Auntie already wants to help me, I'm sure, to spread the word about the loss of my child. later if anyone finds, keep that person know the news from the aunt. Then later I will give again the presentation." said Mbah Abun while giving all the money.

"Ouch.....! Thank you very much, thank you...!" The woman replied slightly shaking, because it was happy to get a lot of money, even the money given by Mbah Abun, was greater than the money spent in his stall.

"Sama-sama Bi! beware not to forget my orders."
