The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

the beginning of a big job

“Bram, Abram really want to do the hell?” ask Adel curious.

“Before soon, really. Later abram ceritain” replied Budi.

Although not satisfied with the answer, but Adel relented. He thought a little patience would be much better than imposing a will. And true, just a matter of not two minutes, Mutia had parked his motorcycle on an empty land. Budipun parked his bike not far from Mutia's motorbike.

“This is the land, mas” Mutia said.

An old former rice field is not empowered. It measures ten times fifteen meters. Rather backward when compared to other lands for trade and resorts.

“Abram want to buy land?” ask Adel.

“Iya” replied Budi with a smile.

“Create?”

“Future we” replied Budi still while grinning.

“Can be measured again, right?” ask Mutia.

“Can, mas. If you agree, we can do that. We've prepared everything. We also contacted the village. As stated by Sandi” replied Mutia.

“Sandi?” ask Adel.

“Ya, Sandi” reply Budi.

“Yesterday I abis nengokin him. I told you I want to have a business. Bla bla bla. And he told me if there are people who are selling land around watu sack. Yes follow up dong, direct”

“Hasta works? Abram wants to make a private workshop?”

“Yap”

“Allohu Akbar”

Adel's throat was blocked. He did not continue his words. Eyes glazed. He did not expect that his request used to be really thought through deeply by his lover. And he did not expect that Budi would make it happen so soon.

“Kok cry?” tegur Budi's.

“Oh. Ee, eng, not. No, kok” is Adel. He wiped his tears.

“When can transaction?” ask Budi.

“Oh? Alhamdulillah” muttered Mutia. Replace him whose eyes are glazed.

“We hope, as soon as possible, mas” Mutia replied.

“Mr, where?” tanya Budi, referring to the location of Mr. Ahmad's house.

“There mas” replied Mutia. He showed a direction.

“Yuk!” bring Budi.

“Monggo, please” replied Mutia.

They drove again to the house of Mr. Ahmad, the landowner. There, it was seen that Mr. Ahmad was lying in bed. Although he tried to hide, but Budi could read that Ahmad was feeling pain all over his body.

Only from the sale of land, the hope of Mr. Ahmad to be able to seek treatment. Budi did not use the bid, the price submitted directly he agreed.

Mutia went out of the house crying. He went to pick up the village device and the land measurement officer. Without wasting time, land measurements were made. After finding the measurement results in accordance with those stated in the land certificate, Budi received the measurement results.

In the presence of village equipment and several witnesses, Budi carried out a purchase agreement. The village apparatus made news of the handover event in writing. Adel made the documentation in the form of video. Budi transfer the payment money to the account number of Mr Ahmad.

The cry of Haru Mutia broke instantly upon seeing the money report coming in his father's account. He immediately fell in gratitude on the floor of his house. So too with Ahmad's wife.

Adel also could not hold his own. But he remembered that Ahmad had to get treatment immediately. Witnesses stood up from their seats. The village device offered his car to take Mr. Ahmad to the hospital.

Mutia asked Adel and Budi for permission to take her father to the hospital. Of course Adel and Budi do not mind. All of them resigned, after helping to move Mr. Ahmad into the car.

“Ya Alloh, give healing to Mr. Ahmad yes Alloh” pinta Adel in his prayer. As the car moved away.

“Amin” suhut Budi.

“And protect our parents Yes Alloh. Keep them out of danger. Give them health Yes Alloh” continued Adel.

“Amin”

Adel could not help but cry. She was crying in Budi's arms. After a while, Budi invites Adel to return to the land that is now officially his.

“Bram?” call Adel.

“Ya?”

Budi who was imagining a building on his land, jolted got the call.

“Tata be kepo, nih” says Adel.

“What, money?” ask Budi.

“Iya”

“Alhamdulillah, Ta. Abram was also not expecting. Feel rich dream. Though only a week abram tahajudan, continued praying hajat. Directly diijabah with Gusti Alloh”

“Volunteers?”

“Yesterday the day after, the family of the father agreed to sell the land of the sewage heritage. Because each has their own home. While the building of the house of Mbah buyut, already fragile.mumpung no one wants, yes just take it off. The results are divided equally. And, like the mother, the part of the late father was given to Abram. Mother said, the future must be fought”

“Princess is not angry, bram?”

“Neg. Even ngedukung” replied Budi.

“Alhamdulillah” said Adel thanked.

“Yes, thank goodness. Still rich in dreams, Ta. This despicable Abram, can be granted his prayers, same Gusti Alloh”

“Hei, Bram. Who said Abram was despicable?” ask Adel. Budi gasp.

“Don't ever say that again in front of a human, Bram! Do not feel contempt in front of people! Just say it in Abram's bow!” continued Adel. Be smiling.

“Iya, dear” replied Budi.

“Terus, next how is bram?” continued Adel.

“Ya make building, lah. Just a little bit small first. The important thing can make the production of tables, chairs, knick-knacks”

“Hem, would you like this father, the story?” adel Goda.

“Ya, no, lah. The target market is different” kilah Budi.

“Eem. Tata has a handyman acquaintance, Bram”

“Who?”

“Former for his father. There were three people who came out, because they did not feel at home ngadepin mr” replied Adel.

“Mau Tata tanyain?” tawar Adel's.

“Bole” reply Budi.

“OK”

Adel took his phone. He contacted one of his father's former carpenters. The look on his face implies that the handyman was interested in Adel's initial offer. He asked to meet in person to talk further. Adel agrees. He also asked the contractor to contact two other builders. So when the meeting happens, the three are already there. And the handyman agreed.

“Bram. I think this one is interested. We wait for the confirmation of the other two builders first. If these two want, we meet them” immediately

“Alhamdulillah” replied Budi gratefully.

“Drink coconut ice again yuk, Bram! Asher as it turns”

“Walah, addictive?” sahut Budi's. Adel just laughed.

But Budi granted what Adel requested. They left the land, and went back to the young coconut ice merchant. They enjoyed the young coconut ice while enjoying the breeze this morning. They choose to sit very close to the beach, although still not covered by sea water.

“Thinking what, ta?” ask Budi, open your voice.

“Eh? Oh, that was. Make medicine until you have to sell land” replied Adel. His face looks sad.

“Oh” Comments Budi short. He rubbed Adel's hair.

“Tata fear, if later the father ngalamin rich things gitu”

“Ya don't take dong. Lots of sodara, lots of temen. Neighbors are also many, Ta” said Budi.

“Yes. Tata also prayed that, Bram. May Gusti Alloh always love them health”

“Amin”

Budi grabbed Adel's shoulder, and pulled him closer.adel leaned his head on Budi's shoulder. For a moment, Budi let Adel let out a concussion in his heart. The sound of his sobbing is heard in Budi's ears even though slowly.

Moments later, Adel's phone rang. The guy that Adel was talking to, called. The repairman said that his two friends would meet. The man made a suggestion to meet at his home. With Budi's agreement, Adel agreed. The lawyer said that the two friends could meet in the next hour. Adel agreed.

“Come, Bram” invite Adel.

“Kok so Tata the spirit of it?” budi Goda.

“Let cepet dihalalin” replied Adel.

“Ciaaa. Amiin” comments Budi.

Budi moved from his seat, following Adel who had first stepped. She was grateful, Adel was very supportive. At first he was afraid that Ade would sulk, if he knew his main purpose here was not for the holidays.

Along the way Adel continued to hug Budi. Sometimes he held that hug. And Budi always laughs when the hug is held. Because it feels like Adel is angry. Like a child who is given a toy. He could not wait to get the toy.

After passing through the contours of the road that is quite challenging, they arrived at the home of the former carpenter employee Pak Fajar. They were both greeted by the wife of the handyman. The son of the handyman also welcomed and saluted Adel. Making laughter because of the boy's cuteness.

“Loh, kirain himself, mbak” exclaimed the carpenter from the back of the house.

“Oh, no. This is Budi mas, my guy, kang” Adel replied.

“Iya. If so, who does not know. Ha ha ha”

“Loh, does Supri know Budi?” adel asked in shock.

“Some STM time is not familiar? Likes brawl together, also” sahut his wife.

For a moment Adel and Budi looked at each other. Budi tried to remember the figure in front of him.

“Oh, Sun Go Kong?” guess Budi.

“Well, the inget” exclaims kang Supri.

“Walah, meet master” comment Budi. To once again Budi salami kang Supri. Adel and his wife Kang Supri just chuckled and shook their heads.

“How's it going, Kang? Long time no see” asked Budi.

“Alhamdulillah, fine. Where are you after retirement? Nangis noh, the Sandi, you stayin”

“Assalamu’alaikum”

I heard greetings from two people at once. Their attention was distracted.

“Wa’alaikum salam” answer them.

“Kang Bejo, kang Mangil, see who our guests” said kang Supri while greeting the two guests.

“Wuih, si Satan” comments by Bejo.

“Who do we want to come to?” continued.

“Hempf. Ha ha” kang Supri laughs.

“And he retired, kang. He's here to help us open the business”

“Huh, kirain until he wants to crash the Brewok. Udah aja spirit, earlier” comments kang Bejo. Kang Supri chuckled again, they were shaking hands with Budi and Adel.

“The world is difficult to guess yes, kang” kang Mangil. He glanced at Adel.

“Iya. first whose girlfriend, now whose boyfriend” timpal kang Bejo.

“Aduuh”

Budi was surprised to get a small pinch on his waist. The actions of Adel invite laughter from all who are in the room.

“OK, okay. Well, it has been on collecting, now try to say what we can help” said kang Supri. Be smiling.

“Begini, kang” said Budi beginning his explanation.

“I want to make a handicraft business. Like a souvenir that illustrates a lot about Watu Karung beach. Not just beaded bracelets, hats or anything like that. But more interesting than that”

“For example?” cut kang Bejo.

“Sort of crab-shaped engraving bracelets. The strap itself from the legs of the crab. Like that, it can form tarantulas, or starfish. It can also be a study table, carved landscape beach watu sack, topped with acrylic. Hard cover for the book, where the pen is shaped like a beach, the pen itself is shaped like a coconut tree. That kind of”

“Wow” comments on Mangil.

“Bikin only furniture! Shades of mangrove forests are the same beach” he continued.

“The legs of the chair are mangrove root-shaped, is that it? Wrestling from bottom to top?” ask kang Bejo.

“Iya. Over him love the silhouette of dedemit. Ha ha ha” replied kang Mangil.

“Bby also tuh” sahut his wife kang Supri. Be smiling happily.

“But by the way, the workshop building already exists yet?” ask kang Supri.

“That's it, kang” says Adel. All eyes were on him.

“We also want it, there are no builders who work well, but the wages we can still reach” continued Adel.

“Oh, the Sukron aja, kang” sahut kang Mangil.

“Iya, really. Sukron works great. Same thing Adel must be, black dikit. After all, the beginning was also from Mr. Fajar, he could nukang” kang Bejo.

“I am, yes” replied kang Supri.

“When you want to start?”

“Kalo price is already deal, immediately we start designing the same estimated cost. If it is still affordable, want today also started” replied Budi.

“Wah, so suspicious, I”celtuk kang supri.

“Suspected why, kang?” ask Adel.

“It looks like Mr. Fajar has given a deadline, nih. If it does not materialize, hemm” replied kang Supri with a seductive smile. Rebellious Adel's eyes glanced at Budi. Be smiling.

“I did it, kang. Fear first mbadol” replied Budi.

“Mbadol? What is tuh?” asked Kang Bejo while chuckling.

“Tikus prematem” replied Budi while chuckling as well.

“Hempf”

“Adoow”

“Ha ha ha ha ha”

They laughed seeing Adel chuckle and pinch Budi's waist, as an expression of anxiety. The three of them also laughed while commenting on the word premature mouse. Something that had never been imagined before in their minds.

Next, they talked about cooperation. About the wages that kang Supri and kawa-comrades if joining the Budi workshop. After negotiating for some time, an agreement was reached between them. Next, the three of them went to accompany Budi and Adel to Sukron's house.

“Assalamu’alaikum” exclaims kang Supri giving greetings.

Kang Sukron who was repairing the roof of his own house was surprised to see the arrival of Supri kang, Bejo kang and Mangil kang.

“Wa’alikum salam” replied kang Sukron, who was still sitting on the roof of his terrace. He came down to greet his guests.

“Tumben. What's the matter with this rame-rame?” ask kang Sukron. He greeted one by one his guests.

“Loh, this is his daughter, Dawn sir, right?” ask kang Sukron again, to kang Supri.

“Iya, mbak Adel” reply kang Supri.

“Loh, this is it?”

“Budi, kang” reply Budi.

“Well, how can you?” asked Sukron while laughing.

“The world is full of secrets, kang” Adel said.

“Ha ha ha ha. Monggo, mongkuo. Please login!” kang said Sukron invited his guests in, after laughing. They enter.

“Please sit down, sorry-sorry, home alone ugly” said kang Sukron. Especially to Budi.

“Kang Sukron is humbling” comments Budi.

“Sorry nih ndan. While waiting for coffee, I asked! This is the story the commander wants to take over his command kang Sandi?” ask kang Sukron. Adel flinched, he turned his head towards Budi. He smiled, while the others laughed.

“Not, kang Sukron. I have a mantep for retirement” replied Budi.

“Oh. Then, this can be together with Supri kang, Bejo kang, same mangil, what is it?” kang Sukron asked, getting curious.

“Begini kang's. I want to make a building for a woodworking workshop business that I want to form” replied Budi, directly at the core.

“Oalah. Understand, understand, understand. Pantesan, can be together. Kirain for an old affair that has not been run”

“What solution, kang?” sahut Adel's.

“Ndon't know. Once again, this is sih” replied kang Sukron.

“Oh” comments Short Adel.

“Nah, this Budi mas want to help kang Sukron to make his workshop building. Want that nego-nego. Kalo deal, today also want to start the process” said kang Supri.

“Wuih, really, kang? What's the application condition?” goda kang Sukron”

“Ha ha ha, not me it means who thinks so” chirps kang Supri.

“Fear of First Mbadol” sahut kang Mangil.

“Mbadol? What is tuh?” ask kang Sukron.

“Tikus prematem” reply kang Bejo.

“Ha ha ha ha ha”

The three of them laughed. Kang Sukron laughed as well. Again Adel was anxious and pinched Budi's waist. I don't want to laugh either.

“Seru really like” reprimand someone.

From the back of the house, came out a woman of Budi's age. He came with a tray full of cups filled with coffee. I was stunned to see that woman.

“Fitri?” tegur Budi's.

“How are you, mas?” greet the woman, while serving the glasses filled with coffee wedang.

“Don't be angry ya, ndan. I asked for” said Kang Supri, distracting Budi.

“Ah, what the hell, kang” replied Budi.

“This is Fitri, my wife, mbak Adel. It was also a member of the Kang Sandi. And retired with me” said kang Sukron introduced his wife.

“Oh. Greetings, madam. Fall, my junior, dong?” sahut Adel's.

“He he's. Monggo, please drink! As it were, mbak Adel. Kang” replied Ftri, switching the subject.

“Oh. Yes, thanks. Yes Alloh, all hawker lebaran outside in” replied Adel.

“What the hell, mbak. Just crank the cave, this is sih” Fitri said.

“Fake again” timpal kang Sukron.

“Hempf” Budi chuckled at the husband-wife's claw.

“Ha ha ha” they all laughed with the cuteness that happened.

Furthermore, there was a serious discussion between Budi and Kang Sukron. Starting from the design wage, building materials, the number of builders, the nukang wage and also about the culmination.

Kang Sukron explained in detail. He gave some overview of the design of the workshop that could be built in a short time, but still sturdy and safe. He gave references to cheap building shops, as well as references to coolies whose wages were still affordable in Budi's pocket, but his work was also sprightly. After a long discussion, finally reached an agreement on wages and so forth.

“Directly move, this?” ask kang Sukron.

“Kalo kang Sukron can” replied Budi.

“Monggo” reply kang Sukron.

They immediately moved from their seats. Before starting work, Budi first gave a down payment on the wages of the four of them. Sontak kang Sukron exclaimed to say hamdalah. He seemed very happy for the fortune that came through Budi. He gave the money to his wife.

“Hayu boss! I will be the one to pick up. Mumpung is not noon” said kang Sukron excited.

Everyone smiled looking at the spirit emanating from the face of kang Sukron. Budi had time to embrace the shoulders of the kang Sukron when walking towards his motorbike. While Fitri, seemed to thank Adel. She was just as excited as her husband. Adel answered wisely, if it is the fortune of Allah.

“Hopefully lasting yes, mbak” prayer Fitri.

“Amins. Thanks, mbak Fitri” replied Adel.

They drive out of the yard. Leaving Fitri himself waving his hand.

Being in the rear position, making Adel not reluctant to hug Budi's body. He was moved again, in his heart he gave thanks for all the favors he had received. This morning he has been shown twice to people who are not as lucky as him.
