At night at Farhan's house, the little family sat watching TV. After dinner they have not been on the move from the seat, may be lowering the rice that just entered his stomach.


"Sir, Mum..!" call Farah when there is a commercial break on television.


"Well, why?" farhan asked as he looked towards his second child.


"Farah wants to work?"


"Where work? thank God you understood. If working on the farm there is no future. The future of the farm is very bleak, as dark as night," replied Farhan the corner of his eyes glanced at Fathan.


Farhan though he was willing to accept Fathan, but he still wanted his son to return to work as an architecture, because he thought the farm could not promise, he said, though the farm run by Fathan is growing very rapidly, but it is not convincing enough for his parents, that by farming they can live properly.


"Who said sir, the farm is grim? the proof is that I can now make a contract with a supermarket vegetable supplier in Sukabumi, " replied Fathan who disagreed with what his father said.


"Yes at least a month has been terminated due to the contract, because it is not able to deliver goods in accordance with the order. All you have to know is that farming is tantamount to gambling, hoping for the uncertain" Farhan palpable.


"Deflect your voice! don't talk to old people out loud. You son don't know how to profit, you study high, not to be a farmer." Farhan did not want to lose.


"What's wrong with farming? see I can still give you monthly money according to when I work."


"Fathan....! Fathan....! Do you still not understand that farming is not as easy as you imagine. indeed now you are again on the top level, but remember that the farm will not always be smooth, but it will not always be smooth, that farm will always be haunted by crop failures."


"I've learned everything, and I'm sure with the knowledge that I have, then the failure can be overcome, especially now that Idan has made an application that can control agriculture, so that the failure of the harvest will be minimized" replied Fathan who disagreed with what his father said.


"Mr...! big sister.....! already you guys don't argue, Farah wants to say something very important, compared to your debate. Are you guys not even supposed to argue like this?" separate Farah who mediates the debate between son and father.


"Well, sorry neng...! where do you want to work?" asked Farhan who looked gentle with her daughter


"Farah tomorrow would like an interview at Sekar Wangi Cibadak hospital, Farah would like to ask permission from the Father, the same mother.maybe not if Farah works?"


"It's so good, I can...! because he sent you high, so that you have a decent life, not a farmer whose income is uncertain."


"It's Father.....! already, do not fish continue," said Sri who looks worried about the two men she loves, who always argue with their respective egos while Kirana and Sarah, who always argue with each other, they just quietly listen without giving an opinion.


"Father did not lure Mom..., indeed the reality is like that. farming is very gloomy, Try to mention Who are the rich people from agriculture, who can succeed from cultivating land? who, isn't there?"


"Mr....! Farah's not done talking."


"Yes Neng, yes, sorry...! You just want to remind that stubborn father, a pretentious kid, but not self-knowing."


"Had it then, you couldn't have a serious conversation," said badly as he was about to get up from his seat, he wanted to leave the family room.


"Don't be fast, you'll get old soon. Oh yes, tomorrow want to be delivered with father, what how? You see, from the village of sukadarma to Cibadak is very far away," hold Farhan while holding his son's hand, so that makes Farah sit back.


"If possible, Tomorrow I want to join Asep. to save costs," replied Farah explained in accordance with the plan that has been expressed with her brother. that he wanted to go to Cibadak with Asep's car when delivering vegetables to the market.


"Don't! nein! follow Asep....! Later you will be unlucky if you join the farmers, Mending tomorrow Mr. who delivered there, so that later when you want to play, you are not difficult to find."


"But Sir...! Farah wants to go alone,"


"You must not be stubborn like your brother who does not know yourself.You must obey a woman with what has been determined by your parents." Farhan said as he glanced at Fathan, who had since been silent, because of arguing with his parents he would definitely not win.


"Farah set out alone sir, not good if ngerepotin father."


"What are you saying, it's not that bad to bother? if it's like that, why don't you say from the beginning, why now you want to work, already want to have your own income, you just said troublesome?" Farhan asked as he stared intently at his son.


Getting an answer from her father like that, Farah just took a deep breath, she did not know what else to say. Because it was true to argue with such a stubborn person as Farhan, she was not, it's just a waste of time.


"Well, what time is it tomorrow?" Farhan asked after his son did not answer.


"It's dawn sir! to get there we're on time."


"Yes, now there you rest first, so that tomorrow on the journey is not sleepy and you can have more energy to start your day, which will be filled with obstacles!" exclaim Farhan gave advice.


Finally, Farah said goodbye to enter the room, want to prepare which clothes, which he wanted to wear when tomorrow doing a job interview.


After Farah's departure, the Central room looked silent again, like there was no life.just the sound of TV coming out from the front.


"No...! look at your sister, she's a girl...! but he wants to work" said Farhan as if dissatisfied with what he had said.


"Kan Fathan is also at work, and his income is more than when Fathan worked as an architect. Now Fathan already has many machines, now Fathan can pay others.


"But working is so cool, it's not like farming dirty, dirty, sweaty."


"I'm going to go out, sir...!" pamit Fathan while rising from his seat, then he was wandering out to the house of Kamal. because at his Uncle's house he would get calm.


"Look at Mom...! your son is told to play away."
