LOVE BLOWS FROM REUNION
Episode 218: MATCHMAKING

    Rini could not deny that she was in love with Yudi. Even though they are old, but love is impossible to be removed from his heart. Especially when you know how Yudi is so good to the people of Nirwana Village. Yudi is not a kyai, not a priest, or whatever he calls to those who are the long hands of God. But witnessed the behavior and attitude of Yudi is so good, giving property and money for the prosperity of the people around him, the welfare of the people of Kampung Nirvana, the treatment of Yudi is truly selfless, and the, who does not agree that Yudi is said to be a good person. All residents of Kampung Nirwana strongly agree that Yudi is a good person.

    It felt like for Rini to always be close to Yudi. Man who does not need the goods, but God actually bestows abundant sustenance in the life of Judah. It is not that Rini intends or is interested in owning Yudi's treasure. It was not that Rini was interested in the luxury of Yudi's treasure. As a matter of fact, Yudi lives very simply. Yudi never showed off his wealth. Even Yudi rarely held excess amounts of money. For Yudi, it was inappropriate to show off the treasures to others.

    Rini was really amazed by Yudi's attitude and behavior that was very concerned with the needs of the other person. Especially the needs of the people of Nirwana Village who still need empowerment from Yudi. It is fitting that Rini often heard the words of Alex, her best friend who often refers to Yudi as a human half-God.

    Rini was more amazed at Yudi, when Rini had resigned when Yudi approached, as if she wanted to be treated like anything Rini would obey Yudi's will, as if she was willing to be, but it turns out that Yudi does not want to do things beyond his will. Yudi still maintains his love ethic. Although as a man who had just lost his wife while his romance was burning, but Yudi was still able to control the emotions of his love. Such an attitude was precisely admired by Rini.

    "Jeez .., Judi .... You're a man, but it's weird .... Unlike other men who see women immediately want to vent their male desires. Like people say, like a cat who sees a salt tie will definitely be hit immediately. Older Mas Hamdan is still able to find young leaves and able to serve them, but Yudi is really a strange person .... I am so amazed at your stance, Yudi ..." muttered Rini on her bed, while daydreaming before bed.

    "Hopefully later in my sleep, I can dream of meeting you, Yudi .... Frankly I want you to always be by my side, Yudi .... At least, you can be an example of kindness in my life." of course Rini really hopes to coexist with Yudi.

    Rini smiled. Again his daydreams always imagined how he was always with Yudi. The daydream continued to knit in his imagination, until finally the daydreams were carried in his sleep. Dreams with Yudi.

*******

    That morning the artisans had started working on the People's Market. Yudi with Mr. Lurah was present at the place to be built the People's Market. Not to forget Mr. Modin was present there. That morning there will be a show. Javanese custom that should not be abandoned, namely carrying out prayer climbing, asking for safety in carrying out development. The Javanese tradition that must be done in every starting work. Not only building, even when starting to hoe the rice fields there is also a salvation event. Yes, the salvation event is identical with the request for blessings to the Almighty, so that later in carrying out the work is always protected by his safety, and obtain good and encouraging results. That is the meaning of the ceremony performed in Kampung Nirwana. At least, later in carrying out the construction of the People's Market, the investors will be safe, not disturbed, and tomorrow if it becomes the People's Market will provide sustenance for its traders.

    Three builders along with Wawan the foreman, lowered the pile from inside the car Wawan who had just arrived. There was one large tumpeng that was lifted by three people, immediately taken to the middle, where Yudi, Pak Lurah and Pak Modin were already cross-legged there. Wawan then asked his investors to lift plates and drinks and other food, to be taken and to the middle of the building plan. While Wawan lifted a small pitcher and a package of offerings.

    After enough, everything that was brought was already in the middle of the market building plan, the artisans were all gathered, surrounding the tumpeng. Of course with Mr. Lurah, Yudi and Mr. Modin. The show begins. Mr. Modin led the prayer. While Mr. Lurah, Yudi, Wawan and the construction workers guaranteed the prayers offered.

    "Brothers of all, with us pray to God, may all our intentions be granted by God. Hopefully in the construction of the People's Market Kampung Nirwana is running smoothly, without any risks and obstacles in any form. May all jobs be given convenience, the builders be given safety, and tomorrow if it is done, this market will be a source of sustenance for the people in Kampung Nirwana." Mr. Modin expressed his prayer intention.

    "Aamiin ..." said all those in the place, hoping that his prayers would be answered.

    "And of course, I also pray that Mr. Lurah who leads this village is given health, safety and wisdom .." continued Mr. Modin.

    "Aamiin ..." again those present here confirm and confirm.

    "More for Mas Yudi .... The good man who donated his wealth, gave his money to build this People's Market .... May Allah always protect, save and give long life, and add abundant sustenance." continued Mr. Modin.

     "Aamiin ..." The sound of amen from those present sounded louder.

    After finishing praying, Mr. Modin opened the package of offerings and mounted a pitcher with water, then commute as if reading a spell. The people present were all silent, watching Mr. Modin who was concentrating on praying.

    "Please this later, this pitcher and setaman flower are placed in the middle of the building. Dig the soil a little deeper first, then put in the excavation, be given a lid, continue to be dipped into the ground again" said Mr. Modin who handed over the pitcher and flower parcel to one of the builders.

    The carpenter who was told to immediately carry out his duties, of course, invited his friend to help dig the ground.

    "The middle is here?!" ask the man who will dig the land.

    "Yes, right ...! A little deep, yeah ...!" the other sahut.

    "Read ...!!" sahut the handyman who immediately hoeed the land that will be used to bury the jug and the flower package.

    "Come ..., come ..., come .... This is his prank in the siege!" said Mr. Modin who told the artisans to eat tumpeng together.

    "Yes, Sir .... Come on, let's have breakfast .... Mr. Lurah and Mr. Modin were taken first, using this plate" said Wawan told his men.

    "Mas Yudi also ...." Mr. Lurahut.

    "Yes .., thank you. I drink first." said Yudi who already holds a glass.

    The atmosphere was immediately encouraging. The artisans scramble chicken and other side dishes. Of course for the artisans, eating this selamatan rice has its own meaning, which is the belief that if they eat selamatan rice, then later they will get safety at work.

    Not only that. The people of Kampung Nirwana believe that rice or food from the prayerful salvation, is believed to provide smooth sustenance in his life. That's why they are trying to enjoy their food.

    But Wawan is not too stingy. That's why he deliberately made the tumpeng selamatan was quite large. Of course for all the carpenters. There is nothing lacking, even overdoing it.

    Rini who heard that the construction of the People's Market had begun, then that morning she with her children, Silvy and Yayan, intended to help give small meals. So the three of them on foot from their house, carrying boxes of cakes and drinks.

    "O, yes .., Ms. Rini .... Thank ye. Wah, troublesome Ms. Rini ..." said Wawan who received the food cardboard.

    "Every once in a while, Wawan .... Cake, really ..." said Rini.

    "Oh, yes .... Eat a salute first, Ibu Rini, Mas Yayan and Mbak Silvy .... It was Mr. Lurah, Mr. Modin and Mas Yudi. Come, monggo .... Come to eat together, Mom ..." said Wawan offered Rini with his children to join.

    "Hey ...! Renee ...!! Come ...!!" suddenly Yudi shouted to him.

    Of course Rini with her son went straight to where Yudi was, and was eating rice tumpeng.

    "Let's Mother Rini .... Eat rice tumpeng, let the rezekinya more smoothly ...." Mr. Lurah immediately offered to eat.

    "Jesse ..., Silvy .... Come on, grab a plate, eat together .... This was the settlement of the construction of the People's Market" said Yudi who immediately told Yayan and Silvy to join the meal.

    "Yes, Pah .... Thank you." said Silvy.

    "Don't Yudi eat ...?" ask Yayan.

    "Lhoh ..., how do you call him Papah? Wah .., Mas Yudi is secretly ..." said Mr. Lurah who is certainly gaket when he heard the children of Rini calling Yudi with the call Papah.

    "Yes .., that is the trend of young people today ..." said Yudi relaxed.

    "Waaah .... Don't be like that, Mas Yudi .... Lest this is a sign ..." said Mr. Lurah again.

    "What sign, Mr. Lurah ...?" ask the curious Rini.

    "Yes .., later this Mas Yudi became the papa of the children of the real Mother Rini." replied Mr. Lurah.

    "I mean Mr. Lurah ...?" Rini was curious.

    "Yes, I mean .., Mas Yudi became the husband of Mother Rini .... Hehehe ..." replied Mr. Lurah who certainly with a big smile.

    "Ih, Mr. Lurah ..." of course Rini blushed in shame.

    "Yes, Rini's mother .... Same marriage Mas Yudi alone ..., let the children of Mother Rini call the same Mas Yudi papah, it is not hesitant and wrong ...." Mr. Modin is coming.

    Rini's getting embarrassed. He threw away his face despite smiling, of course, while covering his mouth in embarrassment. Likewise Yudi who lowered his head, a sign of shame.

    "Indeed, Mas Yayan and Ma'am Silvy agreed, right, if your mother married Mas Yudi again ...?" ask Mr. Lurah to Rini's children.

    "Qik .., qik ..." The two people who were questioned by Mr. Lurah laughed.

    "Lho, I laugh .... That means agree .... Hehe ..." said Mr. Lurah again.

    "Again, Mr. Lurah ..." suddenly Silvy replied firmly.

    Yayan laughed, watching his wife who immediately said she agreed with a happy face. That means Yayan agrees too.

    "Well ..., if the children have agreed ..., wait for what else .... Come Mas Yudi and Rini's mother, just marry. The sooner the better .... It's a shame that the good thing is delayed ..." said Mr. Modin who hoarded again with funny slogans.

    Rini who happened to be sitting near Yudi, immediately turned to the man who had captivated her heart. Likewise, Yudi, who from earlier looked down embarrassed, now he glanced at Rini who had already looked at him first. Yudi smiled watching Rini whose red cheeks blushed in embarrassment. Rini also smiled happily because there were already many people who hoped for a match between her and Yudi.

    "Hopefully Yudi immediately agreed with Mr. Modin's words ..." please Rini inwardly.

    "It's a salvation event to build Pasar Rakyat what on want to tease me, to ...?!" yudi said to people who are still fun to enjoy rice tumpeng.

    "Mas Yudi's matchmaking ceremony with Ms. Rini .... Hehehe ...." Mr. Lurah returned nyenges.
