Job Searching..

Rainbows

Hooosh..

At last... With a breath of breath, I arrived at the front of the house.. For the sake of pedaling the bike as hard as possible, because he wanted to quickly treat the wound on my hand.

"Assalamu 'alaykum... " Greetings, when you get to the door.

"Wa'alaykumusalam.."

"Jar. punteun pleasein teteh Jar... " I shouted to my brother Dawn.

"Aya naon teeh ko screaming? " Fajr opened the door and approached me.He took the bike from my hand.

"This. plsin teteh benerin bike.rem it so ga pakem, fortunately teteh just speeding ga fall. "

"Astaghfirullah tea..that's the hand of why? " The dawn took the bike out of my hand.

"Steh fell in front of the school gate.. "

"Can I? a caliber of teteh can be jatoh? "

"What is the caliber of Jar? you understand what that means? "

"That means that it's an expert as a minor as an expert! "

"Dad but an expert here is a calibre, not a class like sekecamatan competition.. but internationally. hahaha you watch too much news.. "

Dawn held her nape, ashamed. Then he checked my bike.

Damn it Evelyn, I'll have my revenge tomorrow!

And for the first time in my entire 17-year life.

Brughs.

I threw a shawl bag over the chair in front of the house, opened my shoelaces while standing.Then sat on the floor while leaning on the bamboo chair that had started to be fragile.

"Fajar take it first to the mang Ujang workshop in front of the tea, want to ask for help in repairing.the danger if the brakes blong mah! "

"Yeah.noahun ya Jar.. "

"Tea chips.. "

After feeling not so tired, I went into the house.

"Hhhh. This is the bread of humanity yes.mubazir.where no one takes a moment." I complained, looking at the crickle bag of broken bread.

"Ehh yesah.kan Mang Sodri has a fish pond.Atar I asked akh first.may be this bread, to eat the fish!"

I talked to myself, at least one problem about the broken bread was resolved, so I wouldn't feel guilty, just throwing it in the trash.

Though.. There are more people out there than me, right? sometimes they can go for days without eating.

Now just think about how to compensate the bakery agent? 28 Pcs of bread I have to change!

Money from where? SPP is still lacking. lha this must replace the bread whose reseller price is already 4 thousand.

I have to change Rp. 112,000?

Hhh..

I took a long breath. Think about how you can make money in half a day.

Akh. have been, rather than lament. mending quickly change clothes. I will try to the terminal there or to the grocery store, can also go to the cafe - cafe on the roadside to find job vacancies.

***

"Sorry neng.just yesterday someone came in to keep the store.."

"Tea duuh. punteun.. "

"There is noah neng, vacancy so angkot driver..want neng? surely if the driver neng mah many passengers na. "

"Sorry, we do not employ a student who is still in school and underage. "

"There's tea, but the job is to be a tailor.. "

That was the answer from several places such as boutiques, cafes and grocery stores that I have been to.

It's been about 2 hours I walk down the crowded street of this shop. They mostly need a staff that can be full time.

Kruu...

Aduuuhh.Where my stomach was rumbling, thrashing and asking for food.So home from school I did not eat lunch first.

"Astaghfirullah's.. I forgot to pray Ashar. " I patted my forehead and spoke to myself.

About 10 minutes on foot, I finally found a small musholla and without a second thought went straight there. Looking for a place of ablution to carry out my duties.

After ablution, when entering the musholla, what I look for is mukeuna that I can use for prayer. Clengak-clinguk alone to find where in store the prayer tool, but there was none so I gave up.

There's no mukeuna here?

I snorted, and intended to get out of the musholla.

"Sorry tea.. Find mukeuna? " Suddenly, someone asked.

"My same? " I asked myself to point to myself.

"Dad teteh. Here the female only teteh, means the one who uses mukeuna teteh himself."

"Eh. iyah.. " I said clumsy and misbehaving.

"Before I bring you my mamah ya.. " He passed away leaving me.

"Eh but a.. " I wanted to prevent it, but the man walked quickly and in about 4 minutes came back again carrying the mukeuna in his hand.

"It's tea. Just use this.. " He thrust an instant mukeuna at me.

"Daddy gapapa. I wait in front yes.. " She said, smiling at me.

Eh?

She smile?

Yes, Pela. people smile very ordinary, if the people are friendly, surely can smile with anyone.

"Nuhun ya a. "I said shyly.

"Santaui.. " He walked out and sat on the front porch of the musholla.

After some time, I folded mukeuna.

"A. This mukeuna her already a. thank you very much "

"Father both. "

"Then I say yes." I said while sitting, busy tying my shoelaces.

Kruuukkk....

Suddenly an ultimatum came from inside my stomach and made her turn towards me.

I grinned and pretended to tidy up my waist-length hair and tie it back up.

"If I may guess, surely not this guy, huh? " Task him suddenly.

"Indeed not a. hehhe.I'm looking for a side job.. "

"His eyes are still in school. "

"A bar. is still in 11th grade.." I also stood up,"Yes already atuh. mango a. once again thank you punteun said also to his mamah aa.. "

"See wait for tea... "

"Dad? wh why? "

"If you're a pulse counter keeper, you want tea? " She suddenly.

"Hmm?? " I cringe.

"Can replace with me, sift afternoon after school.. "

"A work at the pulse counter? "

The man fell silent, then nodded. "Daddy tea, but I also while in college. sometimes clash with the schedule of lunch."

I looked at the man with a lot of light. "Mauu wants a... "

"Then follow me.. "

"Where?whereabouts? "

"To where I work, pueh there near the rice stall padang. " Sign It on a small pulse counter.

"Alhamdulillah.peak in love, ulam also arrived. " I rubbed my chest in relief.

"What tea? "

"Eehh. ng. ngga... Thank God I need a. hehhe.. "

Kruuuukkk... Kruu..

Aduuuhh ni stomach can not be invited to compromise. would be embarrassed!

"That hungry? "

I scratched my head and nodded. "Dad is planning to find food around here after praying.hehhe.." I said I lied, but I only brought Rp. 10,000 for return.

"Hayuu we eat there! " He pointed towards the rice stall of padang.

"It will be a.. I if his work starts tomorrow how a? " I asked, I thought about the fate of my stomach and want to go home soon.Besides my money is not enough to buy rice paddies.. At home there is still food, peanut sauce and sambel made me this morning.

"Steh want to go home? " We walked and crossed over to the counter across the street.

"Daddy a. already afternoon.. " I said reason.

"Yaaahhh. whereas I want to treat teteh you know. Come please enter tea! " He opened the door he had locked.

"Ga usaah.ga use a. ngerepotin.. Thank God I have been allowed to help work here.. "

"Just a minute, wait here. " The man passed, out of the counter.

A few minutes later, he brought 2 dishes containing rice padang complete with rendang meat.perkedel potatoes, lalapan cassava and sambel green typical of minang food.

"Teteh.. hayu eat first!"

"You a. I don't want to go home.. "

"Ga ngerepotin.. "

I stared at the plate filled with the most delicious food in my opinion. For a long time, I most rarely eat rice padang.other than I think the price is a little expensive, mendingan money that much I can use to buy rice 1 kg and eggs 2 grains.. can be for 2 meals, morning and afternoon.

Moreover, this with rendang. only after once I ate it, when given the sacrificial meat Eid al-Adha.It also if the mother returned to Bandung. otherwise yes wassalam..

With a feeling of unease and doubt, I began to eat it.

O Allah.. Enjoy the sustenance you give today... But how is it? let this rice be wrapped in half? Poor my brother Fajar...

But is it shame. time asked in wrapin?

Dawn... later yes Jar. teteh promise deh. if you already get a salary from work.teteh buy rice padang 2 packs all for you.
