The atmosphere of the afternoon was very hot sun that had been perfectly rounded to emit heat, burning the skin of farmers who would turn it into jet black. from the direction of the tree pecking sound of birds chirping like they are luring the opposite sex to be able to continue the life of the offspring.from a distant direction there was the sound of a motor approaching towards They stood up, they stood up, the longer the sound of the motorbike was more clearly heard until it appeared a man who was riding in simple clothes, in his head there was a cowboy hat wrongly affirming that he was a vegetable croupier.
The motorbike stopped in front of the three of them, who drove it down after turning off the motorbike then invited Dadang kang to shake hands and even hug, while with Abduh and Nathan only invited to shake hands because they might not be too familiar.
"Why are you waiting for him here?" ask a new person who looks bad because the reception is not so good.
"It's okay, you see on the terrace it feels very hot. if here there is a wind that blows so the air is not too hot." Answer Dadang by smiling, saying,
"Yes, let's go in!" invite the host while walking ahead but immediately Dadang held back.
"If you can not be at the house of Kang Karsa, afraid to disturb the family who is resting.so meningan we look for another place while traveling my sister's best friend who is from out of town."
"Who?" ask Karsa who sorted his forehead.
"I'm Kang. I'm Nathan I am Abduh's college friend in Bandung."
"Oh so but why not just at home, so we can freely chat and can be served a glass of coffee."
"Dining outside Kang, If you can at the Akang harvest place so that Akang's work is not disturbed." hold Dadang for various reasons because he does not want if his plan is thwarted by his old friend's wife.
After fighting for opinion, Karsa finally agreed to invite guests to his workplace, after getting the decision, the three of them finally got into the car following the motorbike driven by the car that walked in front of the guest to go to the garden.
The road they went through, the left right side was overgrown with various vegetables.there are mustard kale, cabbage, cucumber and other vegetables, and vegetables, making Nathan more comfortable in Sagaranten village because his friend's village borders the villages of farmers who are very productive.
Long on the journey finally they arrived at one of Saung seen there are some people who are working in his field, maybe it is his workers Karsa. ketig people who followed from the car They went down and then approached Karsa who was sitting in the rainbow, his eyes pay attention to the plants that are time to harvest like being monitoring the work of his men.
"Grow what vegetables now?" ask Dadang who scans the surrounding conditions overgrown by vegetables as wide as the eye can see.
"The habit of vegetables that Kang harvest quickly such as mustard green, cucumber and others.because if you wait a long time later my kitchen can not boil." karsa replied with a smile, she shifted her seat slightly deeper, so that her guests could sit comfortably.
"Right but if the vegetables are fast harvest will certainly quickly spend capital too right?"
"Yes, that's the case, but quite we are not too confused for the risk, because the plants that quickly harvest only as a support while waiting for plants that require a long time can be harvested. so plants are quick to meet daily needs, while old plants such as tomato chili and others are for savings."
"It is great that the vegetable farmers are indeed the money No doubt."
"Indeed if the money is not in doubt, but if for rice we must buy, even though we are labeled by a farmer. Oh yes even chatted with Akang, What happened to meet me?" ask Karsa who looks close together as if ready to wait for what will be delivered by the guest.
Before answering Karsa's question, Dadang seemed to take a deep breath as if reluctant and felt heavy when conveying his wishes, but even so he had to speak so that the problem could be quickly resolved.
"Enht bother in that?" ask Karsa who sorted his forehead.
"I have a younger sister whom I used to play with when I met Kang Karsa, whose name is Jasmine. Now Jasmine is studying in California America, tomorrow she will arrive at the airport."
"Oh so, keep?"
"Actually I was very hard to come to Kang Karsa because I knew Kang Karsa also had there family who probably would not approve when I arrived. but how else I have no one to ask for help except Kang Karsa."
"Next!"
"Tomorrow my sister will arrive at the airport, I feel confused how to pick her up, because it is common knowledge that the residents of Sagaranten Village can not live quietly, because it is a secret that the people of Sagaranten Village can not live in peace, because they have enemies from the village of Cisaga. surely if our departure is known by the enemy village then our safety will be threatened, too, for that we came here to ask Kang Karsa for help in our distress."
"Help in what way Kang, try Please be clear not to be too long-winded."
"I need an Akang vegetable car, I want to rent an Akang car to pick up Jasmine, because if you use a car from outside Sagaranten Village, I want to rent an Akang car, surely the residents of Kampung Cisaga will not be suspicious so with the rental car, hopefully we can be safe on the way."
"Oh so. That's an easy problem Kang, because my car has two. please will want to use which one, do not say rent because it's not pleasant to hear, the same time the neighbors must calculate."
"Thank you very much for your willingness, I'm sure akantivv a very good person. But if I can keep renting because I also want to buy vegetables akang or if I can later let the residents of Sagaranten Village who deliver vegetables from the village of curug twins to be taken to the market so that our disguise looks so perfect."
"Easy! when will Akang leave, but if I send vegetables, I send them to Bandung not to Jakarta."
"It's okay, because we're leaving in the afternoon and Jasmine will arrive at the airport tomorrow morning, so our time is very free even though we have to go to Bandung.
"Yes, I will call my boss in Bandung, Let them know that Akang Yang will send vegetables, replace me. What better with me?"
"Ah don't! already loaned the car alone is enough, I don't want to bother going too far."
"No hassle, and don't say it like that because whatever I'm going to do is not worth what Akang gives. If there is no Kang Dadang maybe our village will struggle with hardship, because of the narrow employment.but when the people of our village will come to be a very developed village with an extraordinary agriculture. so whatever I give won't be able to repay the kindness will."
"Have not discussed what has passed I am so embarrassed." replied Dadang who never brought up his kindness.
Finally they continued chatting finalize the plan, so finally got the decision that the car to be borrowed was two cars by bringing vegetables to Bandung first, then pick up Jasmine to Tangerang. after everything was felt to be finished, Dadang finally said goodbye and would promise Later in the afternoon they would come again to pick up a car filled with vegetables.
Initially Karsa forced to stop by his house first to invite Dadang to have lunch together, but Dadang who is good at reading the situation he also does not want to cause people who are good to him to quarrel with the family, because everyone who is close to Dadang their wife will definitely refuse, because everyone who is close to Dadang their wife will definitely refuse, because the risk is very extraordinary.get permission from Karsa is more than enough for Dadang who lives in the village of conflict.
