while Alek's father is a sofa craftsman who works in the city of Bandung every Sunday or two once back home

Alek has an older sister named Cintia one mother who is about 7 years old but this brother and sister are so cute and each of them does not have harmony to these two sisters..

short story Alek's mother sold instead of profit he even lost because the goods he credits were stuck while Alek's mother sold the goods were the result of taking from others essentially trust capital..alek's mother was wrapped in mounting debt which in the end she also did various ways to have borrowed interest money to cover the debt to the owner of the capital..instead of running smoothly even Alek's mother's business destroyed debts everywhere..

"sir Gimana this is a debt of mother plus many sir" said Alek's mother to her husband

"hmm.makanya ma'am do not be too brave in our usual efforts aja sada ourselves would not have capital bu..emang debt iBu to whom does Bu try total mother later father try to find a solution" said father Alek while advising

days change months change Alek's mother's debt instead of reduced even increased because of the interest so high..finally to the two parents Alek often do not live in the house Meraka sometimes go from one brother to another brother..

Alek who always stayed away by his two parents finally brought by his cousin's brother son from his father's brother named Rini

"your friend Mr. Alek again work to buy toys..Alek the same as uwa first yes" answered Rini while rubbing - rake Alek head sign of his affection for the sister

in the city of Cianjur Alek's father and mother met his father's brother Alek, just to calm the mind and avoid debt collectors. instead of being able to calm down they even thought of their two children let alone Alek who was a child at that time.

a month in Cianjur both Alek's parents decided to go home but before returning to their hometown they stopped by Alek's mother's family brother from his mother's father Alek..

coincidentally, Alek's maternal uncle, a figure in Purwa, can provide a solution to Alek's mother's problems.

Dian also tells about the problems that are in nature at this time even he tells about his fears to the collectors who every time inevitably come home

"Dian klw amang can suggest and you want.kamu so TKW aja gmna.???.incidentally amang have a sponsor acquaintance who likes to send TKW abroad ?? " uncle Dian said

" how ya mang Alek is still small while cintia also still need supervision" replied Alek's mother
