Forcing Old Marriage
No longer have anything....

Ujang still lives in the house of Mentari's parents or rather the house of his own in-laws, that afternoon Mentari returned home early because the teachers at the school wanted to visit home to see and give a speech of sorry for the disaster that befell Mentari and Ujang. From the morning Ibu Mentari had prepared some simple snacks to welcome guests, Mentari found the children were playing so agilely. While Ujang was sitting in the shop hall while drinking coffee.

Mentari rubbed his sweat today he went alone and also went home alone with a motorbike. Ujang's unstable condition since the fire made Mentari not want to burden the man with many things. Meanwhile, Ujang who was sitting dumbstruck looked at their car. It was the only treasure left after the fire.

"Again lunch?" tanya Mentari while looking at Ujang.

"It was just now," replied Ujang as he continued to look at the private car they had bought a few years ago.

Mentari also stared at their beloved vehicle, it was the only thing left of the fire.

"What do you think?" mentari asked as soon as he saw Ujang who kept staring at the car.

Ujang immediately turned his gaze to Mentari.

"If you were me, dance. What would you do if the treasure had been lost and the wooden warehouse was also burned, while we do not have a stash of money at all, what should we do so that we can try again and work as usual?" ask Ujang while looking at Mentari.

Mentari did not answer because he also did not know how, he loved the car very much because the car was very important to them. The condition of an old motorbike does not allow transporting them and their three children, the car is not a luxury but a necessity for them.

"Do we borrow money, brother? kan Abang has many acquaintances where we can borrow money, we can borrow some money to rebuild the burned warehouse and buy equipment to reopen the furniture business, Abang," mentari said he provided a solution.

"We need a lot of money Dance, if you want to build it all because it does not cost a little" said Ujang.

"And Brother will have many friends to borrow," said Mentari again.

Ujang smiled wryly.

"I don't have the courage and my pride will be felt below if I have to raise my hand to borrow money from someone," said Ujang who knows very well even though he has many friends but there is no way they will easily lend him money, sometimes the friend will be lost when the other friend suffered a disaster.

"So what else should we do if you're pressed like this?" ask Mentari.

"What if we sell the car maybe the money is not much, but at least the money can be used to build a temporary house and a small wooden warehouse to start a business again?" said Ujang after thinking long enough when Mentari was to school.

"Date if the car is for sale, how can we go get the kids to and fro? there's no way we're gonna buy another new car, brother?" said Mentari while looking at Ujang.

"Montar more agree with Brother who does not sell the car, but borrow money to some people because many friends so it must be easy to borrow money," said Mentari again who really did not want the car sold.

Ujang turned to look at Mentari, Ujang saw the expression of Mentari's face that was so chubby to his opinion. Ujang knew very well that Mentari loved the car very much, with the car for the last few years, they went to and fro even when someone had intended to buy, Mentari was very unwilling to sell it,, even when they had the money to buy a car that was more luxurious than that, they still chose to use that car.

"How about Dance, what should we do?" ask Ujang again while looking at Mentari.

"No idea, it's up to you, brother" said Mentari.

The speech seemed very forced from the mouth of Mentari, Mentari looked like he was sulking. Yes indeed selling his favorite car is a very heavy choice but indeed what Ujang said there is a point, too, that they have nothing more now than that car. They have a lot of needs for their families.

"If this car is for sale, how much will it cost?" ask Mentari.

"This car has been a long time, of course, if the price has fallen" said Ujang.

"Em about how many brothers?" ask Mentari.

"It is certain that under a hundred million, especially when we sell it in a desperate situation, we certainly will not be able to choose who will buy it, he said, we can not play the price because we are the ones who need the money more" said Ujang.

"Yes already if there is no other way, yes what can be done," said Mentari.

"Yes may we be given the favor back with enough treasure, I hope you can be patient with what we will go through this Mentari, because this is certainly not easy, Tari. Poor life is not easy, of course there will be many things that we will go through in the future, we are no longer able to build a house, we will not be able to build a house, such money is only enough to build a cottage of wood and a warehouse that is not too big and equipment that is only makeshift. At least we can get a way to get back to work, I can't possibly count on your salary, Tari," said Ujang.

Mentari felt his heart was very sore, he was teaching not to make money because he intended to teach just to find a different experience and environment, let go of all the fatigue that is at home because of parenting. It turned out that God said otherwise, maybe in the future, he would be so hopeful with the money of six hundred thousand, which used to be worth nothing. She knew very well how much she needed for children, milk for twins, diapers for her three children, and many more that could not be mentioned one by one.

Both of them were silent to look at the car that had accompanied them in the last few years, sad it turned out to release inanimate objects that had been considered like their own family, like the forest that Ujang's parents had inherited, like a house that had been burned, and like a furniture warehouse that had become an everyday friend to the dashing and mighty man.

Well inevitably the only treasure that must be sacrificed to find a way to make a living, both daydream with their own thoughts, this is very heavy really very heavy, very heavy, they were chosen to undergo trials that did not even cross their minds all this time. They never feel the storm of marriage and they have a very perfect life. It turns out that what happened today that never crossed their brains, God chose them to accept all the destinies they could not make sense of.

"Dance in first," said Mentari who had run out of words, it felt very stifling.

His stomach that was hungry felt full, he only needed time for himself, yes they currently have nothing else.
