The sun has started to come down from the crown, Maybe soon Ashar will reverberate. The sound of floating or tonggeret is heard from all over the place on the edge of the road, in Sahutj with birdsong that sounds so melodious, adding to the beautiful atmosphere of the village.


Different at that time, there were faces full of annoyance, faces full of anger that stared at the person who had admitted his mistake. Ujang has testified that all the commotion caused in the vegetable basket office or in the Fathan family, even the commotion in sukadarma village, it was his work.


"It's so brazen you jang...! mending you do not have to live, if only to disturb others," protested a resident who was seen to tighten his teeth, clenching his hands.maybe if there is nothing to hold back, he's been pouncing round Ujang's body.


"Well...! do not be brought to the authorities, mending we just bury him alive here..we must promise to keep this secret a company secret," suggested the person who digress, seen from the corner of his lips was engraved an evil smile.


"Great idea....! but before being buried we hit first until battered, let ease the task of the angel. then we put into the burrow," The other timpal so that the atmosphere under the big mahogany tree sounded boisterous with the debates of the wishes of the vegetable basket members who want to judge Ujang.


"Have....! already, already...! don't continue...! we here have parents who must be asked for their opinion, because however Kang Ujang is a resident of Kampung sukadarma, is a resident of Pak RT. What do you think of RT?"


"I do not justify the mistake of Kang Ujang, because by his actions almost lost some lives, even almost lost some livelihood.if you see from it the fault of Kang Ujang is not worth forgiving, but as good villagers, we should live in peace and tranquility."


"So Mr RT, defend kang Ujang dong?" ask one of the people.


"Not defending, but I speak as RT kampung sukadarma I do not defend anyone, but I provide the best solution."


"Keep what should we do?" ask Fathan.


"We just ask Kang Ujang first, how is his ability?"


"Please Mr. RT...!"


"Kang Ujang's....!" Call Mr. RT in a soft voice but sound firm.


"I'm Mr. RT," replied the speech without bravery raised his gaze.


"I as the head of RT, I will not defend the wrong people. but I will give an opportunity for Kang Ujang to get a lighter sentence, now what will you do?" ask Mr. RT to start interrogating.


"I'm very sorry for what I've done. I apologize to all the people of sukadarma village, especially to the family of Kang Farhan who has been disturbed peace of life. I promise I won't repeat it again."


"Seriously Kang Ujang?" ask Mr. RT.


"I'm very serious sir, if I dare to do that again.please that I go to the police station, Report me...! my legal process. I'm really sorry..!" answer Ujang.


"Well that's what Fathan said, when Ujang apologized, now he just wants to forgive or not?"


"What do you think of ustad?" Tanya Fathan did not directly answer the question from Mr. RT.


"As fellow Muslims do not spread the rope of hostility, spread the cord of kindness. I'm just like Mr. RT does not defend Kang Ujang, but it would be nice for us to give an opportunity for people who want to repent but that's just advice, accepted or not it depends on a mutual decision," said Pak ustad even though he was very upset with Kang Ujang because Zahra had fainted, had experienced trauma due to attacks by residents of Kampung sukaramah.but when in such a forum, he was very upset, he must show his capacity as a religious leader, because he must be able to reconcile the two sides who are in conflict.


"What about the citizens?" tanya Fathan now threw towards the citizens who since from the grunt felt disapproving of what was revealed by the two leaders of their Village.


"Burn alive...!"


"Don't burn pity...! Where are we going to find the firewood? let us bury it directly."


"Well, isn't that the same thing, if you want to bury you have to wear a hoe, you can't be a vigilante?"


"If you can't play judge by yourself, then you can dong if you play judge together." The other timpal so that makes the atmosphere more violent, making Ujang increasingly shrinking, fearing that the community is not strong in controlling emotions.


"If you think about Tan?" kamal asked while sticking an index finger on his lips.


"Just like what was conveyed by our two leaders, Mr. Ustadz and Mr. RT. I do not justify What Kang Ujang did, especially I am the person who was most harmed from his actions.but we need to remember that Kang Ujang is very good. that Kang Ujang is the helper god of the sukadarma villagers, before my arrival maybe Kang Ujang changed because I came to the village, so in this case I am also guilty."


"You mean how the hell, do not be confused and do not let you follow the two people who took the wrong action like Mr. RT and Mr. Ustad," asked one of the residents.


"First, Kang Ujang turned evil into vindictive and hateful after I came, meaning if I don't come to the village of sukadarma, Kang Ujang will still be good second, he said, we are members of the vegetable basket who must not forget the kindness of someone with only a small mistake.remember when we have trouble we will go to Kang Ujang, who is not a good friend, we can bring our land letters and then stored and we get help even though there must be interest, but Try to imagine if you are not Kang Ujang, we want to borrow money to whom else. want to borrow to our bank will not be easy, because it has to go through several surveys.want to minjam money to relatives or neighbors they are also the same as do not have money. only Kang Ujang is the goal we try to remember again, for example when Idan wants to finish college. Mang Kamal Takes land letters to be pawned so that idan can finish college, and work at a software engineer company, he said, the advantage we have felt thanks to the existence of eidan in the vegetable basket group we can make a Smart farming application to control agriculture, we can sell vegetables through Home Shopping vegetable baskets. this is all Kang Ujang intervention that we have felt the benefits. When there are people who are sick who need a lot of medical expenses, Kang said it will help. So I myself do not feel Vengeance And I do not have a grudge with anyone, he said, because when living in groups, neighbors will certainly be contradicted.most importantly we can still get along well, maintain wholeness and make up again!"


Hearing the explanation of their chairman everyone fell silent, justifying what was said by Fathan. because it is true that all residents of Kampung sukadarma were once helped by Ujang, even though only a form of interest-bearing loan. But it was already very helpful since no one else would be willing to help his distress, other than Kang Ujang.


While the person who was spoken of heard the defense of his enemy like that, defended himself without the slightest look of hatred and want revenge, even though Fathan had the upper hand. The Stone-Hard Tee began to be slightly knocked to tears that had never flowed for decades, now looks soaked his cheek that he unconsciously rose. then he dropped the body in front of Fathan, but Fathan quickly raised Ujang's body so as not to do the thing Outside Boundaries.


"I'm sorry...! i'm sorry....! I'm so mean to you.....!" said Ujang while crying with pleasure in the farmer's arms, his hands were tied so that only Fathan hugged him.


"Already Kang Ujang, do not grieve like that.we as men must have self-esteem" said Farhan while patting Ujang's shoulder.


But the person who patted his shoulder sounded increasingly tightened his crying voice, like a woman who was lamenting self-determination. because after thinking about it even though the evil of Ujang is not counted, but so is the goodness.How many children can finish school with the help of Ujang, so that, how many sick people have been helped by Ujang loans because almost all residents of Sukadarma Village have the same debt Ujang. only Farhan alone is separated from the bondage of the loan.
