Since my father died, Reyhan's family gathers every night in front of the TV while telling stories of their respective activities. Children deliberately reduce time outside to be able to accompany their mother. Including that night. Until a phone call surprised those who were busy seeing the ball accompanied by a favorite peyek nut.
"Hello, this is who" Reyhan said while still focusing on the TV screen.
"GOOLLLI......." Reyhan and his younger brother simultaneously scored when their football team won. Reyhan forgot that he was taking a phone call.
"God. Sorry sir, I mispronounced. Sorry sir, can be repeated again the words said earlier." Reyhan immediately rectified his speech because he was too focused on staring at the TV screen.
"Yes, I'm Reyhan Perdana Kusuma."
"WHAT? who really is sir?!"
"Oh yes sir, thank you sir. yes sir." Reyhan ended his phone call.
everyone stared at her confusion.
"Yee...... I got accepted to work." cried Reyhan gleefully.
"Alhamdulillah, where is Rey." asked her mother with a smile.
"Factored Indotex, 8 o'clock told to get there" Reyhan said with a happy smile.
"After a long wait there was finally that chance."
"Yes mom, Reyhan promised to be diligent in working so that he could help his mother pay for Bayu and Bima schools.
"AAMIIN." all compact replied.

In order to get up early and not be late to the factory, Reyhan sets the alarm, and goes to bed early. But in fact, because a mosquito attack at night makes Reyhan can not sleep well. As a result, you cannot wake up in the morning. Fortunately, his brother didn't run out of ideas to wake Reyhan up.
"Waa.. cold.." cried Reyhan and immediately sat down.
Bayu laughed out loud after the action woke up the brother by sticking ice cubes to Reyhan's face.
"Damn it you, people are good to sleep disturbed." maki Reyhan while throwing a pillow to Bayu's face.
"You should be grateful, for I you can wake up."
"But yes it should not be blocked using ice cubes all kaliii.." maki Reyhan while pointing at the ice cubes in Bayu's hand.
"Because.." Not yet finished Bayu talk already cut off with his mother.
"Udah, there's a hunt for a bath, the hunt's getting late."
Finally Reyhan immediately got up to pick up a change of clothes and rushed to the bathroom. After finishing preparing to be ready immediately say goodbye to his mother and sister.
10 Minutes before the entrance, a briefing is held. After following the briefing, employees are allowed to enter their respective rooms. As a new employee, Reyhan also tried to diligently do his duty. Until it did not feel like the break hour had arrived. The employees immediately rushed out of the room for isoma. It's not hard for Reyhan to find friends anywhere, because he's an easy guy. Lunch while exchanging stories with his new friends so that it does not feel the isoma time is up and must immediately enter the room again. Back in the busyness as a new maintenance, really should focus, because if something goes wrong can hamper the process of yarn production. Sweat splashed across Reyhan's forehead, as the blowing machine was deliberately turned off during engine repair.
"Let's be finished soon, it's already 4 and a half hours, usually we're finished and relaxed at the mosque when it's finished praying" said one of the old employees.
"Oh yes, Mas, well," Reyhan replied as he sped up his hand movements. Finally at 4 hours less 15 minutes his work is completed, immediately tidy up the tool and put it in the room that has been provided. Then rushed to clean the body, following his friend to the mushola. Initially Reyhan rarely prayed, but because there are those who invite finally want too.

"Huh.... tired of it.." Reyhan's habit of coming home from anywhere would be like that, then dropping his body on the carpet in front of the TV.
"Rey's shower school is late in the afternoon, later stay relaxed." her mother advised.
Instead of being bullied later his sister mending follow his mother said only then got up and immediately headed for the bathroom.
Day by day Reyhan passed as a factory maintenance, entering work at 8 and 4 hours home. It can blend easily among maintenance and other employees. The habit of complaining tired after coming home from work and dropping on the carpet in front of the TV continues, even with the habit of playing futsal also continues. Until it did not feel like he had a month of the activity, and the day most awaited by many people including Reyhan arrived. PAYCHECKS.
Reyhan headed to the nearest ATM after finishing his bath and dressing up, but, unexpectedly, he was so shocked, because the long queue like a cow's tail became an irritating sight for him. Fortunately he had a bath and looked fresh, if he had not yet showered after returning from work directly to the ATM, would have increased his embarrassment.
Finally, his turn came into the ATM outlet. When he saw the nominal eye immediately flowered flowers, a smile was clearly visible on his face. He realized he should not linger in such conditions, because it would look tacky. Immediately pressing the pin number, some time the sheet of paper pictured with the deadly duet of Mr. Karno and Pak Hatta was already in Reyhan's grasp, after being counted immediately secured into the wallet and came out with a satisfied heart.
"Assalamu'alaikum's chat... I went home," cried Reyhan entered the house, he then put 2 boxes of sweet martabak and egg martabak on the carpet in front of the TV, of course as usual Bayu was fun watching TV.
"Wah the aroma of the aroma is more money," said Bayu while opening the box with a typical martabak fragrance that has burst everywhere and began to chew 1 piece.
Bima who was in the room because he was busy doing schoolwork was forced to stop his activities because he could not resist the temptation of the smell of martabak, he immediately plucked 1 piece and chewed.
Be that afternoon spent watching TV together and a small thanksgiving, because it was the first time Reyhan got a salary from his hard work.
"This man my salary is 1,400,000, I took 100k to buy martabak and gasoline." Reyhan handed over all the money to his mother.
"Why was it handed over to all the mothers?" his mother asked confusedly.
"Yes, I'll arrange how good it is." Reyhan said again while taking a piece of martabak.
"It's half fair." I gave 700k to Reyhan.
"Thank you ma'am. Doain also dong let my salary can be as much as the president's salary" said Reyhan by not forgetting to insert a joke sentence.
"Yes be the president all my brother" said Bima innocently.
"There is a president whose value is only half enem." Bayu changed who said and then all laughed.
"Wait for the play date!" reyhan replied steadily then immediately devoured a piece of martabak.
