About Taste


"The Jamal can now work in the fields. Even the work is much better than the farmers who are already senior like Mr."


Hendra, who had just come from the city, this morning, frowned in surprise. When he heard his father's words, about his playmates. Who used to always stay in class, and also a coward.


"I mean Father?" asked Hendra to know.


"That's Jamal. You are that Temen! since his father died. Jamal's working in the fields..."


"Yes, Hendra also knows that it's sir. This is what you said, if Jamal can work better than seniors. What do you mean Father?"


Hendra was impatient, so cut out his father's unfinished sentence.


He wanted to know, what was the reason his father said about Jamal's current state. Even praising his stupid friend.


Even in the past, Jamal also did not dare to decide to come with him. When he took Jamal to work in the big city. To make it look cleaner than just working in the fields.


"You know Hen, Jamal's rice field is small?"


Hendra nodded at the question. Because he also knows, the location and size of Jamal's rice fields are not how big. Compared to his father's own farm.


"Well, Jamal's rice field is planted with rice. Same as Dad too. But... out of nowhere luck, it's.inya kok someone who bought very high!"


"It's Jamal who profits, or his lucky buyer huh? so can't see that. Between the paddy fields, which will affect the amount of rice produced."


Kang Kasan, who is Hendra's father, told his son. With the circumstances that happened to Jamal and his rice fields as well, at this year's harvest.


"There may be other rice, which the man bought as well. That's not just Jamal's. But the combination of several rice fields, which are nearby is also sir." Hendra tried to comment on the circumstances that existed in Jamal.


Especially in this village, the yield of rice is never high. Because it is determined by the buyer, or middleman. Not from the farmers themselves, as the owner of the rice field.


"There is no Hendra. The other rice paddies, bought the same buyers who usually do!" sahut kang Kasan shakes his head.


"Yes already. Rice buyers in the rice fields Jamal, bargain have a father as well. Let the high behavior, just like Jamal's too," said Hendra chimed in.


"Ck! Can't Hen. The buyer didn't come to the rice field yesterday at harvest time. Who harvest rice, Father also no one knows. In fact, when you asked for the person's phone number, no one had either!"


By suppressing each of his words, kang Kasan seemed to be upset. Envy with the success of Jamal, who was able to sell the results of his rice fields at a high price.


Actually, kang Kasan also wants to meet with Jamal's buyers. But apparently no one knows what the name and mobile number of the buyer.


Even Jamal doesn't know. Because at that moment, Jamal also forgot to ask.


"Try tomorrow not to see Jamal sir. Who knows, he'd say it to Hendra."


"Well, that's right, Hen. You tried a matchbook from Jamal. Let the next harvest, you can sell rice with him. Not the same as this usually."


Finally Kang Kasan smiled, hearing the words of his son. He also felt happy, because he had hopes for the next harvest later. To be able to sell his paddy, to the same buyer, with the current Jamal.


Kang Kasan imagined what it would be like to have more money, compared to the current harvest. Because it is always bought by the same person every harvest.


"That's Lina so, ask for your application?"


"Are you sure Hen, with Lina? He's kind of a matre!"


Now, kang Kasan discusses the girl who is close to Hendra. His son has just returned from the big city.


Actually, Hendra's return was also at Lina's request. This beautiful girl in her village, who was close to her for the last few months.


At first, it was Jamal who liked Lina. But Lina who feels like she is one of the beautiful girls in this village rejects Jamal.


"Got ah the same as Jamal. It's lola, smelly, dirty again. He works in the fields. A lot of mud on his clothes and body too."


Lina asks Hendra to be her lover.


"I would like to be Hendra's girlfriend. He's neat, scented. Hendra's work was in the city, not in the fields."


That's how it ended up, Hendra and Lina got into a relationship. Although Hendra actually felt bad for Jamal. But she also did not want to waste the opportunity, to be able to become Lina's beautiful boyfriend.


Even Lina herself asked him to be her lover. So, Hendra felt very lucky. Although he saw how the sad face of Jamal.


But selfishness of heart, made him forget. If Jamal is also his own friend from childhood. Their school levels are ultimately different. Because Jamal is more often staying in class, and finally just finished elementary school, or Elementary.


"How's Hen?"


Hendra awakens from his daydream, about Lina and Jamal.


"Not yet to know, sir. Try Hendra to ask Lina when I meet."


Kang Kasan heard his son's answer, which was like he was looking for an excuse. But he didn't know what happened to his son.


*****


At Jamal's house.


Umi was in the kitchen. Jamal was in the garden next to the house. Watering a freshly planted orange tree yesterday.


Jamal watered the orange tree with a small hum. A childhood song she used to love.


The song grows corn in the garden, he turns it into an orange tree.


Deep hoe hoe hoe


The loose soil my oranges planted


Give fertilizer to be fertile


Plant the tree regularly


The oranges are big with fruit


Of course useful to all


Hoe hoe I'm happy


Planting oranges in our garden


"Jammy!"


Jamal turned his head towards the voice, where someone was calling his name.


"Hi Hendra's. When are you coming home?" jamal asked Hendra who had called him.


It turns out Hendra deliberately came to visit Jamal's house. Besides, Jamal is his friend. There was something important he needed to ask his childhood friend.


"Sit come here!"


Jamal stopped his activities, then asked Hendra to sit on a long bench on the porch of the house.


The long bench, just like most of the benches on the terraces of the village people. Made of bamboo, which is arranged in such a way. So that it can be used to sit or relax the body.


"How are you doing Hen?" jamal asked, after the two of them had faced each other. Before finally sitting on the bamboo bench.
