Reaching Dreams

Chapter 40

"Alhamdulillah yes want your work in demand, I am proud of you so hopefully this will be the beginning of your success" said Mr. Jamal

"Aamiin, yes sir hopefully. Sir how if the stall is moved so that it merges with the store will the stall be rame. People in addition to buying decorations, they can also buy the same father's food"

"But son, it's less fitting like if the grocery store blends together with the craft store. It may be more suitable for ready meals or young children's cafes. If it's more suitable"

"Yes too sir"

"Now one-on-one first, you focus on your craft first. Make many works that are many and good, good luck yes son !"

"Aamiin, yes sir if that's it"

"Friends, we'll move out !"

"Where's Yas going ?" ask Arya

When we were talking, my friends and the kids didn't know about this because we were talking at home.

"So Mr. Rudi offers shophouses, thank you later we can work there while showing off the finished artwork. Take it easy you will also get a promising advantage, for your children can occupy his shophouse you can stay overnight so do not sleep on the road again ya !"

"Really brother ? Ask Dian

"Yes, do'kan Brother yes let his business smoothly !"

"Asiiiiikk yes Brother" the children look happy

"Alhamdulillah Yas I am happy to hear that, your efforts have been fruitful" said Arya

"Cool Yas, we can eat-eat dong ! Jefri Sahut

"Wih steady now Ilyas become a successful craftsman" said Arif

"Ah haven't been successful, not me but us. We all run this business together, hopefully the business will be smooth later you can buy whatever you want as a gift"

"Alhamdulillah his horror is already seneng Yas, if I do not ask anything see our friend was successful it was enough" said Adin

"Yes right, you focus on running your business. Hopefully in the future smoothly there are no obstacles of any kind" said Tomi

"Yes but this effort we built together so you guys should enjoy it too. We share the results, all with your help"

"We are paid enough for the usual Yas, the idea is also you make. All these crafts you that make us just help, this is your sustenance Yas" said Arya

"Yes Yas do not exaggerate, just enough to mending you love your parents" said Dimas

"Thank you, you are indeed the best friends, but this time do not be rejected later we eat. Oh yes deck bring your other friends here, invite them to eat !"

After we finished praying, we all ate together, the street children gathered. I was happy to share with them, I saw them so happy while enjoying the food. After we finished eating, we chatted and offered them to work with me. After that, they went home and my friends went home. I still feel all this like a dream, when I pray tahajud I express my gratitude to Allah SWT. God has been so good and always gave me immeasurable happiness, it feels really like a dream, the money itself some of which I sent to my mother, I gave it to my friends and kids. Unbeknownst to me, Mr. Ardi and Mr. Rudi sent money he said as a down payment for making his craft. He said, if the manufacture is the basic material of the tree trunk so maybe the tree trunk should buy. It's true, the trunk of the tree will not always be there and wasted I have to buy it specially. But it's not good because the goods themselves I haven't made.

Thank God from the results, tree trunks and handicrafts decoration, houses and shops are back in possession. My father and mother returned to her home, I gathered the street children, not only giving them decent and useful work but I also taught them to write and count. Poor them no one goes to school, if only I had a lot of money, want me to school them all. The next day after school, I want to go to Dian and her friends, I go alone my friends no one knows they know I went to the store. When I arrived under the bridge, I saw their residence made of cardboard and used wood that was stacked without a roof. I really feel sorry for them, otherwise the bridge might be raining and overheating. I saw someone sleeping, I looked for Dian. Not long after he came with the sack.

"Sister... !"

"Sir, you're looking for used goods ?"

"Sir as usual"

"From now on don't be too long, you don't keep getting hot, right now you've been working with your sister"

"Yes, sister, this is me running a used plastic bottle for sister !" while showing the bottle

"Well, too many yes, brother come with you nyari bottle used can ? want to know how you work too ? Oh yeah you're alone ?"

"My friends are still looking for second-hand goods Kak, can you really Kak if you want to come but is not tired brother ? I just got home from school"

"It's okay we go to the shophouse, oh yeah you've eaten ?"

"Not Brother"

"Judah we will eat, but the others have not come yet, but later they will go to the shop brother right ?"

"Sure brother, they run out of used goods will go directly to sister's shophouse"

"Ok if that's the case, let's just go !"

"Come Brother"

Dian and I went through the city, I accompanied him to find a used bottle. This way, I know they work. I used to work like this myself, I sold newspapers and once sold cakes. I know what it was like, back when I was working when I was 7. I can feel how painful life is, but I'm still lucky because I have a place to live, both parents and still can go to school. Forgive me God, I have complained and there are more disadvantaged than me. After looking for used goods, we go to the food stall I invite Dian to eat. I personally wrapped food for Mr. Jamal, my friends and the other children. I have a desire to make a home for them, so that they live in a decent place.

"Sister, buy her a lot of food ?"

"For your friends and Big Brother's friends too"

"Thank you, Brother"

"Together deck, spend his meal ! Want to add more ?"

"So, I'm full"

After we finish eating, we go straight to the shophouse. We brought food for them, surely they haven't been on the eating.
