THE WHEEL BOY
BUJANG HOMETOWN



They immediately ate the simple menu. Only a basket of rice, warm tempeh and pecel become their sahur meal.


Finished his uncle sahur directly to surau back. He never missed the morning prayers in Surau.


"that was your uncle's cooking?" asked Anton


"yes that's what uncle cooks ."


"it's so good that your uncle Jang's cooking." praise Anton for the first time he ate pecel


"indeed my uncle is good at cooking tons ."


"but if only pecel everyone in this village can cook and eat every day." reply long bachelor


"the spiciness of the peanut sauce was balanced with the bittersweet Jang ."


"the key to the pleasure of eating pecel there ton, spicy and bitter complement each other ." Bujang


"it has become a typical food of the region here, cheap prices taste luxury." continued bujang


"that's exactly what you said, it must have gone from page ." Anton amutini says bujang


"it's good to live in the village , the ingredients are not difficult to eat" concluded bujang before leaving for surau


"i first, you already memorized the surau, right ?."


Anton just nodded


After returning from the surau Anton resumed his sleep while the bujang chose to walk around there while waiting for the sun.


"morning sir, Monggo." greet some of the gentlemen who are gathering.


"yes, please ."


"in a moment, were you the niece of Mr. fingerprint who came home last night?" it looks like she was in the mail when the bachelor was looking for his uncle.


Bujang stopped answering the question. "yes I'm a bachelor, niece of mr. priket."


"you who used to follow Randi's middleman yes." a person who began to remember about the bachelor.


"yes, I'm the one who's with Mr. Randi ."


"now you're still with Mr Randi?" he asked again


"not yet ."


"for a long time Mr. Randi was not taking vegetables here anymore" continued the residents


"means this village is lucky" said bujang lirih


"lucky how son, even had to sell our vegetables to the market itself, the price is cheap ."


"after I didn't join Mr. Randi, his confidants used thugs to buy vegetables ."


"and the thugs forced the price cheap or even they broke the vegetable." continued bujang


"so now Mr. Randi is using thugs ?."


"yes, but his right hand is now in prison ."


"to the knowledge of Mr. Randi's impromptu sales ."


Residents were shocked to hear the testimony of a bachelor.


"so now what do you do in town ?."


"kulak , but dear new to know here vegetables no one brought to town ."


"iya Jang, just take some vegetables from this village."


"yes, later I talk to my boss let someone take vegetables here ."


"means the truck in front of the house, the print is yours?" said one resident


"no, it belongs to my boss." replied the honest bachelor because indeed the bujang truck itself is still carried by another , it's a truck that just finished in service in the workshop .


In the heart of the bujang happy because later if other middlemen practice martial there is not difficult to bring home vegetables .


"the sun already seems to me saying goodbye first sir." Bujang moved back to his uncle's house.


So did the other residents return to their homes, continuing their work.


Arriving at the bachelor house wakes Anton who is still sleeping .


"wake up.hey wake up.don't sleep."


"it's not good to sleep early ."


"wake up and say no, no job." complained Anton


"yes, washing a truck can be ."


"when I had to go to the water to wash Jang's truck, I took off Jang's hand." complained Anton again.


"no need to nimba, I just saw in front there is a water faucet, maybe from the mountain spring ."


"you helped me." Anton


"can't, here you live with me so I'm the boss." Bujang chuckled


"yes boss, what are you doing ?."


"i want to nyari grass for cow feed." replied the bachelor with a sickle that he had raised.


After coming home looking for grass bujang call ajam.


"yes, what's wrong ? "


"are you busy ?."


"no, what do you want to do ?."


"don't ask much, I'm going to your house now." the bachelor immediately hung up.


"ton , do you want to come with me ?."


"follow from being alone there is no work ." Anton hurried to follow the footstep of the bachelor.


"assalamualaikum.jam ." Bujang knocked on the door.


"walaikumsalam." a hijab-wearing woman of the same age opens the door


"Rita?, you're ajam's wife?." a surprised bachelor saw Rita who used to be a tomboy turned into a hijab-wearing woman.


"yes, please come in first." Rita invited the two to sit down


"sorry who are you? and what is the purpose?." asked Rita


"i'm a bachelor little friend of stingy, and this is my friend from town ."

"and also the house has been damaged a lot, I want to renovate the house." Bujang explained his point.


"yes I may be the same as you, selling the cow to renovate the house." Sharp confirmed the bachelor's speech.


"so you're the bachelor who used to wander into the city?" chirped Rita who began to remember


"yes, at that time I had to wander to keep my father's wishes ."


"what did your father want you to leave this good friend of yours ."


"he wants me to go to school hours, and Mr. Randi promised to send me to school ."


"and now I've occupied that desire "the bachelor explained with teary eyes.

"of course I'm very grateful to you for the hour, you and Juki who became my teachers." said what she had been quieting all along.


"what's not Jang, it's your right to get knowledge." Sharp down in response to the bachelor.


"now how has Rita changed so far Jam?" the bachelor diverted the conversation


"what's changed?, you're not pangling." replied Rita


"i remember you were a tomboy how can you turn into a hijab woman now ?."


"after graduating Elementary School I entered the boarding school, so it changed 180 degrees my appearance ." Rita explained


"how can you marry the boy you used to mock this fat?." pricked bujang when you remember the stoning that used to be a material that was made because of his stock.


"i'm a handsome man, anyone would want to be my wife." so bragging


"who said I married you because of debt ." Rita denied her husband's remarks


"what debt?." chirps bujang


"we owe a tomato."


"her mother owed my mother a tomato 'then she offered it never to be returned 'as long as she married me '" joked Rita, who made everyone laugh.


"i didn't expect us to get married because a tomato was betrothed." Sharp returned his wife's joke


"if you make a good movie that's ."
