The Way to Find You

new acquaintance

Mentari peeked at the eastern horizon, revealing a cheerful-looking smile.I breathed in the morning coolness that felt loosening my chest cavity.Maybe my eyes were still damp from last night's cries, but there was a little relief in my heart. when crying is no longer withheld, and I do not need to hide the reality.I am indeed fragile and it is not the time I hide behind a pretence shield.it is time I need a backrest to share a little of this lara.

I approached the aunt who was busy in the kitchen. so early all the cooking was ready on the table. aunt did always wake up very early, because she did not want bad luck when going to the garden.

" what the hell is that bi ?" I asked when I saw the aunt who was flattening the dough on the baking sheet.

"this,gethuk lindri.your uncle wants to eat breakfast he said" said aunty, without stopping his activities.

" do you want ?"

"by bi, it looks good"

aunt cut it for me, and I greeted her enthusiastically. Just the first bite alone tastes really good, not too sweet nor too salty.

"how ?" I just gave a thumbs up while enjoying the bustling made by aunty. a smile seemed to be flicked by aunt.

After the shake is completely flat on the baking sheet aunty cut small and arrange it on a plate.

"anyone can help not bi ?" I volunteered after finishing enjoying a piece of lindri's gothuk.

" want to help?, make a drink gih. coffee for uncle is not too sweet, keep the tea fresh for aunt.if for you whatever you want to make what."

" okay bi" I waltzed away taking three cups and making drinks to order.

No longer seen bi Ifa inside, my steps are looking for those who turned out to be sitting on the front porch.

" uncle's coffee, this is aunt's tea" I said as I placed the cup in front of them.

"thank you wid" said the uncle with a sincere smile.

"sama-uncle".

the three of us enjoyed breakfast. It feels so calm so soothing.the sound of birdsong sounds earthy. The flowers in aunt's garden are also so beautiful, inviting butterflies and beetles to alight.

"where are you going today?"I asked for our breakfast.

"regular garden"

"follow the bi"

" but hot wid" uncle interrupts.

"it's okay man, the boss at home"

"yes already, follow it. later it can be shady in the hut" replied aunty.we continue breakfast.although not rice but this is filling sunnguh.

After breakfast I prepared to join them to the garden. I set off first with the aunt's motorbike maticnya. bag filled with drinking water and food in front of the aunt. while the uncle departed on his ontel bike. it didn't take long to get to the farm.

as far as my eyes could see, there was only a wide variety of vegetables. eggplant, long beans, chickpeas, kale, tomatoes, spinach and many more types of vegetables.all looked fresh.but it was not the uncle's all. belongs to some villagers here, because here is a block of palawija. so it contains various types of palawija. Bibi stopped the speed of the motor and stopped near the hut. Besides the hut there is a fairly wide expanse of chili plants.

"this is aunt's garden ?" I asked while staring at the chili plants that bear fruit and look ready for harvest.

" yes, '' short replied the aunt while standardizing the motor.

"morning Min, you start the manen also today"

"yes mbak, it's a beautiful woman who's tho. would-be ghost ?" I heard that question, but I still heard it.

"no, niece. her son kang masku" said the aunt while stepping with a bag approaching me who was sitting on the tile.

" morning mbak ?" she was friendly with a smile.I nodded, smiled and greeted back.

"yes, early in the morning also bi"

"let's see ifa, I'm the garden first"

"iya Min, take a break here later. I bring this gothuk lindri".

"that good thing, I will definitely come here. let's mbak" now that speech is fixed for me.

" oh yes please bi"

I smiled happily, the hospitality in this village is still there.

aunty prepared, with a caping in her head, sack and tote bag. For a moment I just noticed, but it didn't seem difficult, I finally followed.

"wear Wid's hat, hot" he said when I was near him, because the hat I was carrying was still hanging dicelana.

"iya bi" I also immediately tied my hair that is still scratched and wearing a hat. first experience harvesting chili, fun. not long after uncle caught up with us. work under the hot sun is quite fun especially interspersed with small chatter.sometimes there is also a joke, not only the three of us who chat but from the garden next door. they throw jokes and talk to each other.

Long time sweat flooded my body when the sun was getting hotter. I finally chose to take shelter back to the cave. I drank water, sitting relaxed enjoying the wind that reduces my anger.

"excuse me, can a passenger sit down mbak ". suddenly the voice of someone surprised me a little.

"please" I said as I stared at the handsome man with the ideal height.The clothes were neat, the dark red hem with the arms rolled around my side, the black trousers, the boot shoes.must not be a farmer.

"drink the mas" I said, offering a bottle and a glass.

" oh yeah, thank you, miss Ifa's son ?" ask while pouring water.

"no, call"

"knew Aji" thrusting a hand, I welcome.

"Widi" I replied as I glimpsed at that smiling face.

"not here, I've never seen"

"born here anyway, just the magnitude is not here. You also seem not to be here, and it does not look like a farmer ''.

" emang no, I'm here to accompany farmers, give counseling, and well, give them a little knowledge to be more developed" he explained with a smile that continues to expand.
