The Love of Mas Paijo

Chapter 60: Bloody But Happy

The following days Paijo still tried hard to persuade Haji Bagong. Waiting for Haji Bagong to leave in the morning or when he came home in the afternoon. Every day Paijo receives rejection. Wanting to meet Saras' mother was also difficult. The woman is like Rapunzel in her palace. It is difficult to find and rarely go out. Bribing Malik the fierce security guard with a twenty-egg martabak is also free. His credibility as the gatekeeper of Haji Bagong house is not in doubt. Although martabak in eating, but his mouth can not be invited to cooperate.

Paijo pontang-panting, take care of the construction of the factory and its licensing. On the other hand, he was always worried about Saras. Almost two weeks without seeing each other, Paijo missed. Missing heavy.

Paijo looked pitiful, the turmoil of his heart made him forget to pay attention to himself. Her hair tiwul-tiwul asked for in the prune. The brewpub that he usually never let nest in his chin grew irregularly. Paijo who is not handsome is getting older because it is not taken care of.

"Jo, have you taken a shower?" Salma who saw her son since then just change the channel tv, without any interest to watch it was sitting next to Paijo.

"Yet..."

"The more grim your face. Take a shower in the afternoon!"

"Yes, just a little more..." Salma let out a rough breath hearing Paijo's reply.

"Huh, no news from Saras yet?" Paijo just shook his head.

"Haji Bagong is indeed late, since yesterday my mother contacted Hajah Maesaroh also could not. Now even mom's number on the block too,"

"Pengen mother hitrak that Haji Bagong, if only you do not forbid mother to interfere-"

"Don't! later add existing runyam,"

Paijo shuddered in horror, when he remembered Salma's behavior that thwarted Saras's engagement plan by going to Bambang's family and saying that Saras was pregnant with Paijo's child.

"Hemm, yes mom can't help much if you're banned. By the way, it's the same hair you cut there into barbershop. Miris see, you already look like a caveman who is far from civilization! Looks old!"

"Biarin, he's old..."

"Sad, sad may be Jo, but you should also pay attention to yourself. You want when you meet Saras you'll be ugly?"

"That's not so Jo!"

"What the hell? it's getting noisy ibukkkk!"

"Sih, you are said to be gheyelan," Salma snatched away because his attention to Paijo was not welcomed.

"Important Paijo still wants to take a shower, that's enough."

"As far as Jo... Here's the remote, I want to see the gossip from nasehati you're not in terror,"

Seeing that Salma and Paijo could be that warm, Burhanuddin secretly felt happy. The family warmth that once felt impossible is now real. Paijo has changed a lot since his return to this house. Adult more. It makes Burhanuddin no longer force his will to Paijo lecture again. Especially now that Paijo has been able to prove if he can independently pioneer his own business.

"Mom, make it the father of coffee..."

Salma turned her head, only to realize that her husband had come home. "Eh, already home, kog ga to dengeran ya open the door,"

"Yes, it was because from earlier the mother was noisy," Paijo got up, though lazy he had to keep bathing.

"Brains,"

The next day Paijo went to the Sukorejo area for a field survey. From the information provided by Om Irwan, in the area there are many depots that sell sengon wood or even teak. Paijo came from one depot to another. Comparing prices, if the incoming ones are calculated to be sold or processed again according to demand later.

Paijo motor speeding splitting the road up and down and winding. Sukorejo is still one district with Paijo's hometown. However, this district is a highland area surrounded by mountains.

Paijo suddenly remembered Saras. The shadow of the girl was still thick in Paijo's mind. How Saras laughed, how he kept raving like a parrot. Paijo misses it all.

Wherever, whether in the city or on the mountain, whether sleeping or awake, in my eyes there is only your shadow, Saraswati.

After finishing his business, Paijo rushed home before evening. When he arrived at Sukorejo Paijo square stopped to stop by to buy a drink. Paijo's throat was dry. It turned out that young coconut ice tasted more tempting than young widows. You are thirsty Jo. Paijo also stopped by at one of the young coconut ice shops.

After sipping a few drinks, Paijo swept a glance around. The egg-laying chicken statue that became an icon of the city of Sukorejo caught his attention. A lot of people are interested in taking photos there. Then Paijo's gaze moved, unintentionally capturing the silhouette of an old man he recognized. The man walked over to cross.

From the other direction, an Avanza car looks to not reduce the speed. Paijo.

"Geez!!!"

Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiittttttt......!!!!!!!!!!

"Revelation!!!!"

Arakkkk!!!!

Despite falling over, Paijo managed to save the old man. The speeding car crashed into a garbage can on the side of the road. The sound of the brake squeaks and ends with the impact of the trash can, automatically inviting attention.

People flocked around Paijo who was lying side by side with the old man.

"Mas-mas, is it okay or is anyone hurt?"

"Let's help, slide aside!"

Some people helped wake Paijo and the old man, others arrested the owner of the car Avanza who was almost a suspect in the collision.

"Pakde Haji, no one was hurt, right?"

Haji Bagong choked, his waist hurt too because of falling down. But Paijo's condition is worse, both elbows look bloody.

"Mas should be more worried about his own situation, look at the hands of the mas until it bleeds so! Try in motion! Not rolling, right!" A father looks very worried about Paijo.

Paijo moved his hand, "No, just this blister..."

Then the driver of the car in the midfielder to be held accountable.

A young man is seen representing the talk, "See sir, they are injured. This is my father's responsibility!"

"Yes! it's a responsibility if we don't want to report the police!"

Naturally if everyone there is furious, the square area is always crowded with road users. Every passing vehicle should understand and reduce speed.

"I also don't want to be completely blamed!"

"This old man who crossed over is not careful, look at my car is also dented because of avoiding the two of you!" The driver was seen not accepting and instead accused of blaming Haji Bagong.

Paijo's chest heated up, his emotions were already unstoppable. "Dam!!!!" Paijo stood up instead pointing at the face of the selfless man.

"NOT CAREFUL YOUR EYES!!!"

"JUST BE CAREFUL!!"

"FAR AWAY I'VE SEEN YOUR CAR NOT REDUCE SPEED AT ALL!!!"

"YOU PICHEK!!? YOU CAN'T READ THE SIGN!!!"

Haji Bagong choked, a few seconds he felt flattered already in public defense.

"Patience, patience, talk carefully," Lerai the fathers who had paid Paijo.

Haji Bagong was silent, probably still in severe shock.

"Okay, I'm responsible. How much do I have to compensate? I paid!"

Ah, Paijo feels like he's going to stab that guy in the mouth. "Ga need sir! WE DON'T NEED ANY MONEY!"

"You should realize wrong and apologize alone is enough, but it seems like you are not learning ethics, so things like that do not understand,"

The car driver's jaw is hardened. But if he continues to argue, he could be in the future.

"Hla, did you hear me? obviously the wrong father, we also saw the car speeding. If you want to finish quickly, just do what you ask,"

"Ah, that's not fair. Kei pisan kei lessons wong koyo iki. Dumeh numpak car sak tim e dewe! wes one seh wani ngegas!" chirp the other young man. (once taught a person like this. Mobilize. It is wrong to still dare to be strong)

"Still silent? still not accept? want to go to the police station? I'm intermin, not far kog!" add wise fathers.

The driver's guts shriveled, "Okay, sir-mas, I'm sorry. Let me take you to the hospital for treatment"

"Ga! I don't need to be alone!" reject Paijo.

The driver was gawking, there was this kind of person. "Keep me how to be responsible?"

"Tomorrow more carefully if driving, do not let events like this repeat to others!"

The situation is conducive, the fathers who have been mediators since dissolved the time. "Well, if you have agreed to make peace, all thanks, you can disband all!"

"Huuuuu! yok! disperse!" the young man who had been the spirit of the fist was disperse. After making peace, the driver left because Paijo insisted he would not be taken to the hospital. Paijo and Haji Bagong live there.

"Pakde Haji, where is the sick? we go to the hospital first?" ask Paijo worriedly.

"No need! Why are you here?"

"What is Hajj here?"

"If anyone asks, it's answered first, not a change in the question!" this was the first time Paijo heard Haji Bagong speak instead of expelling. Although the tone is still the same, not soft.

"He. sorry, I just surveyed to the wood depot looking for suppliers, yes even though it is still a stage of development, but I plan to open a wood factory in Wonorejo area."

"Where did the Hajj master himself come from?"

Haji Bagong wavered, there is no way he answered after visiting Saras. After all Haji Bagong was astonished, why could it be a coincidence like this. Why Paijo can crawl in the area where Saraswati is hidden.

"Sir?" Paijo waited for Haji Bagong's reply which looked dreamy.

"Huh, I, I have business in the private bank." pointed out Haji Bagong to divert his nervousness. Paijo is just mangosteen.

"Then I go first!"

"Nothing really hurt, is it Pakde?"

"No, that's you treat your own hands!"

Although with a cold tone, but Paijo is happy not to play. Feeling the attention of the father-in-law.

"Okay Pakde... Pakde Haji be careful yes, let me drive to the car!"

Haji Bagong goosebumps hearing Paijo's hospitality. Though seconds ago he looks furious when nagging the driver who almost hit him. "Ga necessary! I still don't like you! so don't be happy to keep going then you big head!"

"Hehe. ga anything Pakde, later I make Pakde like me," replied Paijo with a cry. His heart was blooming, but both his elbows were bleeding. Haji Bagong left Paijo first.

"Oh, this hurts too!" look at Paijo on both of his injured elbows.

Then he went back to the ice shop he had left. Not paid for it yet.
