The Father's Choice

The Father's Choice
Dad Died



We walked down the plantation and bang Parlin led one big cow and another followed, we also walked to a fairly large field close to the plantation that looks green because many are growing weeds.


After arriving at the edge of the field, Parlin also tied the cow that he had been leading since and the cows were immediately cool to find their own food.


"This is how I've been doing my twenty-two years, Dik, herding cows" said Bang Parlin. We sat under a large tree and saw the cow eating.


"Peace and quiet Bang live in the village" I said. I also rested my head on the back of the Parlin bang. And all of a sudden I heard bang Parlin play the flute that out of nowhere he got the flute.


The sound of the flute was hauntingly melodious and made the heart feel peaceful.


We were on the edge of this field until the afternoon, and when evening came we immediately brought the cow back to the cage.


Bringing the cows to the cage was not difficult, they already knew the way home just by leading one cow in front.


****Today the Jum is invited people, said bang Parlin si Jum will be brought to the slaughterhouse will be cut and taken meat, he said, I was so moved and jealous when I saw bang Parlin to tears when parting with Jum, bang Parlin stroked and kissed the cow's head when he wanted to be lifted into the truck.


"At that time the butcher asked for an account number without giving your account number only, so that it is transferred to your account" said bang Parlin m


"Why not just use your account number" I said.


"I have intended to give money from the sale of Jum to you Dik so use your account number only," said bang Parlin.


I also disturbed the pleasure of finally my account number there was the contents of the duwit all this time empty.


I feel very happy that the money from the sale of the cow was given to me by bang Parlin, I am also moved to have a husband who is not stingy, he said, actually I want to ask how much the price of a cow like that Jum But I'm afraid to say duwitan eyes when in fact I really like to see money especially if in large quantities anyway happy always, anyway, understandably so far my account is most filled three million and now will be filled with money from the sale of cows as big as Jum I can't wait to see how many duwit into my account.


Bang Parlin came out for a while to buy a tool for plantation purposes and I also stayed at home sitting on the porch with my father-in-law and again the father told me about bang Parlin which made me more amazed with my old husband.


I thought that the fields that were conjured into distance plantations and also used for cattle land were inherited from my in-laws, I thought my in-laws were rich, but I was wrong, the plantation and the farm was started from scratch by bang Parlin, he was the first to open this plantation, he said, he bought this land for the first time only one plot and it was also capitalized by a forest foreman from Sumatra who was then assigned to this village and Jum was also the first cow bang Parlin got from the foreman's son.


Even bang Parlin who paved the way and gave capital to his other brothers for distance gardening, oil palm and also cattle farming.


I'm even more amazed and proud to have husband bang Parlin, he's an amazing husband figure.


After a week of living in the village it was time for us to return to Bogor, the rental car driver that we used yesterday came back to pick us up like the agreement we had agreed.


Bang Parlin paid the car for three million he said it was a fare commensurate with the distance traveled.


"Why not buy a Fortuner or Pajero car in the village so if we want to go for a walk while in a good place there is no need for rent" I said.


"Reverse is the need or desire of Dik, if in our village we need a truck to transport crops and Alhamdulillah we have three Dik trucks and the price of the truck is not inferior to the price of Pajero loh, besides Pajero cars in the village for what Dik," said bang Parlin.


Suddenly I heard my door knock someone and I got up and walked to the door to open it.


I saw my neighbor next door standing at my door.


"What's wrong, ma'am?" my many.


"That Mbak Sinta yesterday brother Mbak came here looking for Mbak seems to be something important, he said Mbak's phone can not be contacted, he said, he left a message to me that Mbak had gone home on the phone back," said my neighbor.


"Oh yes ma'am thank you for the information" I said with a smile.


"Yes Mbak Sinta is the same, I'm sorry Ma'am," said my neighbor saying goodbye.


I closed the door and immediately went into the room, I found my phone in the bag, I forgot that for a week in my mobile village I never turned on, it turns out that life in a peaceful village made me forget about cell phones.


I also immediately charge my phone that runs out of power after being charged twenty percent I immediately call my oldest brother.


On the second ringing my phone connection was immediately lifted, before I could ask what was the matter brother looking for me I was in droves with scolding by my eldest brother.


"You this how the hell we got a disaster even your phone can not be contacted and when searched for home no neighbors do not know where you actually are anywhere," said my brother


"What is the endowment? sorry my phone doesn't have a signal "we're worried.


"Father who died Sin! whether you are what kind of child his parents died do not know," said my brother ketus.


I was shocked to hear this news that the ground that I was on suddenly felt great spinning, I also shouted calling bang Parlin while the phone I was holding had fallen.


"Bang ..dad Bang!" I screamed in the middle of crying.


"What's wrong with Dik's dad?" asked Bang Parlin while running towards me.


"Father died Bang" I said, and after that I did not know what happened because suddenly it was dark.
