This time we will cover briefly to the middle of the island of Java. A city with the initials T the sky there looks cloudy.
A burly young man rode his motorcycle. The intention in his heart to go home because the sky was getting dark.
Maybe soon the splashing water from the sky will come down on the city of T. The bike is old enough. Astrea years old but still good function.
The road leading to his house passed through the rice fields. The houses stand beside the road just a distance between one house and another house.
This young man was named Andri. He works as a painter. His job is to paint wood. Paint the door of the house, paint the windows of the house and the walls of the building.
He did that job long enough. That also counts his skills. There were a lot of tasks that were assigned to him and he did quite well.
When he focused on driving. From the side, two young lovebirds appear. The jug was traveling at a fairly high speed.
The match was on his bike overtaking Andri who was driving casually. Until not long from the plantation on the right side of the road. A black cat crossed the street.
Because it is too high the speed of the motor then there is no time for the two lovebirds to stop the speed of the motor.
The cat was crushed by his motorcycle tire. Until the cat died right there with a crushed head. Some distance after hitting the cat. The two lovebirds stopped.
It seemed that the girl who was being hugged by the young man was whispering a little to the young man in front of him. It seems they are lovers.
The girl patted the back of her young man while looking at the one dead cat. He pointed and continued to say what he said.
But instead of going down, the young man revived his motorbike and left from there.
Andri seemed to be privileged to see the behavior of the two young people. Then when the motor is close to the body of the cat then Andri stopped.
Queue turned off his motor and walked up to the dead cat. It's a rural street. More dominant area of rice fields and gardens than residential residents.
Rarely does anyone pass by there. Andri did not have the cloth to wrap the dead cat. But he had the initiative to take his clothes off. And he only wears underwear.
Andri wrapped the cat in his shirt and took the body with him. Blood from the broken cat's head dripped all the way.
Until he walked long enough. He found a cassava and banana plantation. There's no one there. The plantation was deserted.
Andri stopped the bike again. He approached the plantation. There were several pieces of bamboo lying there. Andri took it and dug the ground as a tomb for the cat he was carrying.
A few minutes Andri digs then it becomes the tomb. He put the cat in there and then he hoarded it again. After that he said, too,
"Sorry, pussy! I can only help you!" he said then left from there.
When he got back on the bike. The water from the sky slowly came down. It is still not heavy but Andri is sure if he hits and does not stop maybe the rain will hit him.
So while walking Andri looking for houses that can be a place to shelter.
When he found the first house the fence was not open and the house was tightly closed. The second house is also the same position.
Third, he found a third house. The fence was a little open. Allows himself to go inside.
Andri parked his bike in front of the fence and then he entered the terrace of the house. The house is quite big and also luxurious. There on standing alone while staring at the instantly heavy rain.
Faintly from the left window where Andri was standing. He heard some activity there. He knew there was someone else there. Andri said, too,
"Excuse me, Father or Mother, who's in there! I'm allowed to stay here nggeh! It was raining heavily, I couldn't go home!" andie said politely.
"Oh Monggo! Maybe go in please!" said the old man in there.
A few seconds after that speech. The door of the house that was closed was opened. Andri looked back. The door is not open perfectly. Just a little bit of opening. Soon a voice came from inside the house,
"Look at Mas!" the voice of a man in the house.
Without hesitation, Andri went inside. There he found an old man sitting on his wheelchair. The man was wearing a white sturdy shirt with a holster.
The scarf is long enough to not show its legs. The old man smiled at Andri.
"Where's the word from?" the old man asked Andri.
"I'm coming home from work sir!" answer Andri politely.
"Oh Alhamdulillah, Mommy! If you can find out what work it is?" the old man asked Andri again.
"I'm a painter sir! Regular paint windows, doors, walls. Painting wood sir!" andri answered the old man.
"Oh incidentally Mas, the paint in this house is quite worn out already ugly everything. Maybe Masnya want to paint the windows that are already ugly I help mas! I want the front and back doors repainted. The wooden stairs were also repainted. If you may know how much you'll end up telling me!" the old man said to Andri.
"Thank God, thank you! Then I count first sir while looking at the state of the windows and doors that want to be painted can?" ask the Old Man.
"By Mas, Monggo!" said the old man.
"If you can know whose father's name nggeh, let me feel good calling a genengan?" andri asked the old man.
"I'm Joko Mas! Monggo calculated back to me. Let me prepare the wages!" said Mr. Joko.
Andri nodded. He started to go around looking at the place he wanted to repaint. There he also calculated the cost of expenses that must be incurred to renovate.
After long enough to go around while counting then Andri returned again to Pak Joko. Talk about the nominal for the renovation.
"May Mas, Masnya can work tomorrow! But, please forgive me in advance. I can't prepare drinks or banquets. But I will give you a meal every day per person one hundred thousand. Meal money and keys, along with material money I will put in the front pot! Please take! I am rarely at home. So please come straight in here to work!" mr. Joko said to Andri.
Andri nodded her head understandingly. After the agreement, the rain outside died down.
"The rain has subsided, sir! I went home first!" andri.
When he stood up and was about to approach Mr. Joko to kiss his hand and leave. Joko's sir held him down with a hand signal.
"It doesn't have to be that way, it doesn't have to be so formal! Yeah, well, Monggo's genie comes home first. The rain has stopped! Oh puggeh, this is material money huh Mas! There is also a DP for Mas! Happy working ngggeh!" said Mr. Joko put the money sheet on a small table.
"Then I want to rest!" said Mr. Joko then left Andri there.
Andri took the money. Then when he looked at the hallway really he was surprised to see Mr. Joko who was not there.
Strange if the old man went into the room. He should have heard the door open.
But Andri does not want to take a headache. He left immediately. Andri turned on his motorbike engine and he accidentally turned to the terrace of Pak Joko's house again.
There he saw two children staring at him. Andri who was surprised also immediately beristigfar.
He then smiled towards the little boy then said his greetings and left.
