LOVE BLOWS FROM REUNION
Episode 106: SAKURA IDAMAN

    After the inauguration of Taman Awang-awang, Yudi and Yuna received a visit from the Japanese consulate. Not only did the official envoy from the Japanese embassy come by driving the consulate car, but there was also a box car that went with him.  The box car brought gifts from the Japanese government for Awang-awang Park and Japanese Cave. The contents of the box car are a hundred seeds of cherry blossom plants, which are typical Japanese flowers, which flower when spring arrives. Hopefully, this cherry blossom can be used as a sign as a bond of friendship between Indonesia and Japan.

    Yuna was very happy to receive the gift. This is the biggest award from the Japanese government for him. Of course Yuna wants to immediately plant the seeds of the cherry blossoms.

    "Jude .., this is like a dream .... Cherry blossoms are the pride of the Japanese nation" Yuna told Yudi, who said that cherry blossoms are the pride of the Japanese.

    "It's cool, Yuna .... I am very grateful ..." said Yudi who was very impressed with the gift sent by the Japanese government.

    "Nihonjin wa afternoons o sakura to yonde imasu. Jinsei no saikuru to shite shocho sa reru sakura no tetsugaku. Jinsei ni wa kofuku wa kanashimi de owari, tanjo wa shi de owarimasu" Yuna told Yudi.

    "What does all that mean?" ask Yudi.

    "Jews, Japanese people are very happy when spring arrives, because the cherry blossoms will bloom, spread the charm of beauty, as well as the smell of fragrant. When the cherry blossoms bloom, as if it is a symbol of the beautiful life that will be experienced by the Japanese people. What a pleasant hope. So when the cherry blossoms bloom, the Japanese go out, to the park, to the edge of the lake, or to the hills, to welcome the beautiful flowers that bloom. But actually, there is a deep philosophy of the cherry blossoms." Yuna's story to her lover.

    "What is the philosophical meaning of this cherry blossom?" ask Yudi.

    "Sufi people in Japan believe that cherry blossoms are the symbol of life. Japanese people believe that cherry blossoms are a picture of human life on this earth that is only a short time. This cherry blossom describes the cycle of human life, where there is happiness, but there will also be sadness, where there is birth, will end with death. Life is just a delivery. In that short life, we must be able to give meaning. At least we have benefits for others" Yuna said explaining the meaning of cherry blossoms for Japanese society.

    "Hm .... Very hello to the meaning. It is like the philosophy of Javanese society that says that life is likened to just 'near dandruff', just a drink. Just for a second. But in that short life, said the Sufis in Java, 'urip iku urup', which means that life must be able to illuminate, give light, give warmth, be able to live. We should be able to benefit others" said Yudi who helped give meaning to life.

    "Yes, Honey .... I agree with that philosophy. At least, our lives have benefits for others, we can give meaning to the community in this Nirwana Village" said Yuna, who of course immediately embraced Yudi, warmly.

    Yudi was happy, having at least the same principles of life as Yuna had said. That is, the essence of their lives is to want to give meaning to the lives of others, especially for the people of Nirwana Village. They both want to advance the village that has given meaning to life for him.

    "Yes, like a cherry blossom. Although only an annual he flowers, although only a short age, but at least the cherry blossoms have given meaning, has given happiness to mankind. It has even become a symbol of beauty for the Japanese people" said Yudi who was happy to get the delivery of cherry blossom seeds.

    "Come, we plant these flowers, Yudi .." said Yuna who invited Yudi to plant them.

    "In a moment, I call Bagas, to find someone who can help us" said Yudi who immediately raised HP will call Bagas.

    "Hello, Mas Yudi .... What's up, yeah ...?" tanya Bagas upon receiving a call from Yudi.

    "Hello, Gas .... This is Ma'am Yuna getting a gift from the Japanese government for Taman Awang-awang" Yudi said replying to Bagas.

    "Vuay .... Henat, Mas Yudi .... Ma'am Yuna is great." Bagas replied on the phone.

    "Yes ..." said Yudi.

    "What gifts can you send, Mom?" ask Bagas.

    "Mbak Yuna can send cherry blossom seeds from Japan as much as one truck" replied Yudi.

    "Vuil .... A lot of it, Mommy .... That's the famous cherry blossom right, Mas ...?!" bagas.

    "Yes .... This is Ma'am Yuna wants help, Bagas find someone who can plant the cherry blossoms. Please find me, Gas ...!" Yudi conveyed to Bagas.

Evening the roots are growing, the morning the plant is fresh. No wilting .... I see, Mas Yudi ..., how to grow crops." explained Bagas.

    "OK, ready. Yes I have been waiting at home, later in the afternoon transported. That's it, yo ..." said Yudi ending his call.

    "Siaap ..." replied Bagas who turned off his phone. And of course immediately pick up the phone again, to contact people who can help plant cherry blossoms.

    Yudi and Yuna waited for the afternoon to come. He waited for Bagas and the man who would help plant the flowers of his government. Of course Yuna had imagined the beauty of sakura while blooming. It will definitely be a selfie spot for visitors to Taman Awang-awang. The sweet smile expands, Yuna imagines, as the cherry blossoms bloom in spring, as she always sees in her country.

    And, finally .... After the sun shifted in the western sky, that afternoon Bagas came with two men who were ready to bring hoes, to plant cherry blossoms in Taman Awang-awang. Then they put the seeds of cherry blossoms into Bagas car that has been opened up. The car was full of cherry blossom seeds. One person accompanied Bagas to sit next to the driver, and another person was in Yudi's car with Yuna. Then they together, towards the top of the hill, will plant cherry blossoms.

    "Well, how many ...?" ask the astonished Yudi. So did Yuna.

    "Yes, Mas Yudi, Ma'am Yuna .... These friends are all willing to help plant cherry blossoms." replied Bagas explained.

    "Lho, he said it was just two people?" ask Yudi again.

    "Yes, Mas Yudi .... Sorry, Ms. Yuna .... Upon hearing that Mbak Yuna received a gift from the Japanese government, we were all proud. We are sure this Madam Yuna is not a random person. Moreover, this cherry blossom gift sent directly by the person from the embassy, means that this is truly a special award. That's why we immediately gathered to help Ms. Yuna." explained Bagas.

    "Well, you know that this is a gift sent by the embassy?" ask Yudi again.

    "Lha was in the parking lot of people already noisily, Mas Yudi." replied Bagas.

    "What storm?" ask Yudi.

    "Yes, that's .... There are guests from the embassy looking for Mbak Yuna and Mas Yudi .... I guess ..., I guess ..." said Bagas.

    "What do you think ...?" ask Yudi.

    "I think Mas Yudi and Mbak Yuna want to be married .... Hehe ..." replied Bagas.

    "Your Emprul, Gas .." said Yudi.

    "Yes, Mas Yudi .... Cepetan nikah ..." The others follow. Yudi smiled confused.

    "Wis ..., let's just get laid ..." said Yudi distracting.

    They grow cherry blossoms. It is located on the north, east and west sides, which does not block the view to the South Sea. At least later in the north, will bloom cherry blossoms, which will certainly tether the photo spot when the flowers bloom.

    Yuna set the position to be planted. Yudi was busy directing the planters. Two men hoeing making a hole in a plant. Some people lifted flower seeds and put them near the hole that had just been dug. Two people opened the plastic polybag and put the plant seedlings into the hole. Then there are those who crave plants, then watered by employees.

    The cherry blossoms are already planted. Quite a lot, as if almost a fence on the north side hill that curved in the west and east. And some are planted in the Japanese Cave, at the bottom of the tourist attraction.

    "A lot of water, so as not to wither" said Yudi, telling the employees who were watering with a kingpin.

    "Yes, Mas Yudi .... Tomorrow morning I will flush again." said the man who raised the kingpin.

    "Instead you pull here, let's not be heroes ...." Yudi teaches his employees.

    "Oh, yes .., Mas Yudi. Stupid me ..." replied the one who watered, then pulled the water hose.

    "Wis kit mbiyen ...!" sahut.

    Yuna who likes to watch the cherry blossom trees that have been planted neatly. Of course he has begun to imagine, soon will see the beauty of cherry blossoms in Taman Awang-awang.

    "Yudi .., this is the touch of love that my country has given to Taman Awang-awang" Yuna told Yudi.

    "Yes, yeah .... Later when the cherry blossoms bloom, then the love will be approached by beetles that offer prosperity. Yes, this is a touch of love from your people for my country, dear ..." said Yudi who was also happy to watch the cherry trees that have been planted neatly.

    "I've wanted to feel that touch of love, dear .." said Yuna who had started to heat up.

    "Patience, Dear .... Hopefully it will flower soon." said Yudi.

    Yudi understood with his lover. Although it may not be the right time, but Yudi tried to ask.

    "Yuna, will the cherry blossoms in Indonesia also develop in spring like in Japan?" ask Yudi to Yuna.

    "Ah, yes .... The seasons in Japan are different from those in Indonesia. Every day in Indonesia can see the sun. But in Japan there is a change of four seasons, namely spring, hot, autumn and cold. There is no winter in India. There's only rainy and hot seasons." Yuna looked disappointed. So it looks sad.

    "Aah, don't be sad, Yuna .... We just pray to God, may the Almighty give the flowers can bloom someday. Not only spring, but it will bloom at all times." said Yudi calmed his lover.

    Yuna was very hopeful for the growth of the sakura. Not only appreciate the gift from the Japanese government, but also want to be accompanied by the dream sakura. Cherry blossoms are watered at all times. Treated and cleaned every day. It is awaited by the baktinya, longed for the colorful flowers. Sakura dream, quickly grow.
