Kirana Plan

After the bean porridge had been eaten, Kirana began to tidy up all her belongings put in a suitcase.then she kept it in the corner of the room.

After everything was neat, he came out of the room and tidied up his former food into the kitchen and then he walked towards the outside of the house, on the terrace he met with Sari and Kamal who were enjoying the twilight time.

"Where are you going, ma'am?" asked Kamal who stared in wonder.

"You're seeing Asep mang, is he home?"

"I think it is, because Idan has also come home, he is bathing!' answer Kamal.

"Yes I want to go to Asep Mang's house first."

"You what?" asked Kamal who was curious.

"Office business, a little bit!" kirana answered lying.

After asking for permission, Kirana also walked to Asep's house not far from Kamal's house, only blocked by a few houses.

Arriving at a house that is not so big, Kirana also said greetings, until an old man named sabroni his father Asep.

"Eh there's Neng Kirana, what do you want?" asked the old man while looking in wonder at his guest, because Kirana Baru this time came to his house.

"Anyone is Sir?" ask Kirana.

"There, by chance, just came home, now taking a bath" replied sobani.

"May I wait for him?" kirana asked while sitting on the long bench in front of the sabroni house.

"May but not outside, let's go inside..!" invite Mr. Asep to please.

"Here Sir! while enjoying such a beautiful twilight," replied Kirana mangosteen saluting the old man.

"Yes, if Neng Kirana wants it like that, I briefly tell Asep first." Reply to the sabrony while going back inside, then she meets her bathing son to tell him that Kirana is looking for him.

That afternoon really looks very beautiful, because the yellowing twilight Lembayung gives a golden color to objects that are illuminated by its rays. Floats or tonggeret sound melodious from the direction of the garden.in Sahuti the sound of birdsong heard from the jackfruit tree in front of the house Asep. kirana's eyes continued to scan the entire courtyard of the house which was overgrown with plants that looked very fertile, because since Asep joined the vegetable basket farm, he prefers to use his free time to farm in front of the house.

"Why not in the mom?" asked Asep who was neat, his hair looks wet because he just finished bathing.

"Here alone Sep! because I really like to see plants like this, especially when illuminated by the Light of Lembayung twilight," replied Kirana.

Asep Pun came out of the house, then he sat on a long bench not far from Kirana, then he asked again.

"What's wrong, ma'am?" asked Asep who looks curious, because Kirana does not usually come to his house, Kirana is more indifferent to other men.

"There's nothing, I'd like to ask you for help."

"Please, Mom?" ask Asep.

"Oh yeah, your boss has gone home yet?" Ask Kirana.

"Not yet Ma'am, Kang Fathan these past two days, he prefers to sleep in the vegetable basket office rather than at his house. According to his confession, he prefers to stay in the vegetable basket, he prefers to stay in the vegetable basket, than staying home alone. Because he could keep thinking of finding a way to get out of the pressure of a pandemic outbreak."

"Oh yeah he didn't ask me why I didn't go into the office?" ask Kirana who is getting curious.

"No ma'am, even today we don't talk, because he is more often silent in the office room," Asep replied honestly.

Hearing Asep's words, Kirana's heart began to feel sliced back, because the person she had always admired, whom she had hoped for, Not a little care for her. let alone visiting ask the news he did not do, so Kirana was increasingly convinced by his decision to leave the village of sukadarma.

"Sorry what's wrong, ma'am, why Kang Fathan?" asep asked after not getting an answer from Kirana.

"It's okay, I just want to know the situation because just like you, I also rarely talk now. Oh yeah, you're tired of it?" kirana asked starting to discuss her goal.

"If you're not tired, please help me!"

"What help?" asep asked who was staring in wonder.

"Please take me to Jakarta, because I do not dare to bring a car alone.especially since living in the village of sukadarma I rarely use a car, even if I have to use a car Fathan more dominates driving," kirana clearly conveyed her point.

"Will you come home?" ask Asep to make sure.

"Yes Sep..! But you don't tell anyone, enough we both know."

"What about Kang Fathan?"

"Yes just like Sep! he also does not care, my time should care the same people who do not care about me."

"Kang Fathan is not that kind of person Ma'am, maybe now he's thinking a lot, so he doesn't want to burden mom with his burden, so he prefers to stay away."

"It should not be like that, he should invite me to talk more often, to find a way out of the problem he is facing, so that we can both find the right solution. Well, instead of talking about running around everywhere, what would you do?" ask Kirana firmly.

"Well ma'am," Asep replied hesitantly.

"Remember my message! don't tell anyone we're going to Jakarta."

"But Ma!"

"Nothing but, if you feel sorry for me then follow my will."

"Well ma'am, I'll keep it a secret, when are we leaving?"

"Later after the magrib, because the responsibility if the magrib on the road." Kirana replied.

"Well Ma'am then I want to ask permission first with my father, later after my maghrib to Mang Kamal's house, it's okay if I ask permission from my parents."

"It's okay, as long as your parents can be trusted. I've been waiting for you not to be late!"

"Ready ma'am!"

"Then I say goodbye. But, first thank you for helping me," Kirana said as she got up from her seat, after she said goodbye Kirana went back to Kamal's house.

The sound of children attending the mosque sounded so melodious, making Kirana's heart a little shaky, because she was already very comfortable living in the village of sukadarma. it feels very sad if you have to part with the atmosphere of Asri village.until shortly after that the sound of magrib bedug sounded beaten, followed by the sound of Adhan is so melodious.

After performing the magrib prayer, Asep who had promised Kirana he rushed home to get ready to deliver his superior, who was about to return to his hometown.

After everything felt neat, he said goodbye and asked his parents for prayers, then went out of the house to Kamal's house.

On the way to take Kirana, Asep met Kamal who had just returned from the mosque, seeing Asep who was neat kamal was staring suspiciously.

"Where are you going, tidying up like this?" ask Kamal with a smile.

"Anu Mang's.....! anu....! anu....! Uh, anuu!" asep replied who stuttered because he was not used to lying.

"Where are you going, suspicious like this?" asked Kamal who refracted his smile.

"You go to Mamang's house" Asep replied hesitantly.

"When you come to my house, put on this weasel?" Ask Kamal.

Got a question from Kamal, Asep also dizzy staring at the house that looks lonely, because the residents are solemnly doing magrib prayer.

After it was felt safe Asep pulled Kamal's hand, to hide, making the man increasingly curious about Asep who looked very stiff.
