LOVE BLOWS FROM REUNION
Episode 64: TAMAN ASMARA

    The crowd of Kampung Nirwana began to increase, when the news was conveyed that Taman Awang-awang was about to begin construction. The news spread from word of mouth. Starting from the tour driver, who told the passengers, the news eventually spread to various regions. Likewise the craftsmen and souvenir traders, every tourist who visited, certainly told about the construction of Taman Awang-awang. The news spread quickly. Finally, even though there is no promotion, the name of Kampung Nirwana has been widely discussed. Thankfully, the news will actually be beneficial for tourism businesses in Kampung Nirwana. Starting from tourist drivers, souvenir traders, craftsmen, traditional food baskets, and art workers.

    Bagas, as a close person to Yudi, began to be busy answering various questions about the implementation of development. Especially the villagers who want to work as a building power, on the talk and message to Bagas, ask to be included to work. Bagas was confused to answer. Again, Yudi who became the place to complain Bagas.

    Like Yuna's message, in order to work quickly, Yudi contacted Mr. Lurah, to hold meetings with people who were seen as helpful. The names have been designed by Yudi. Just call by phone, then gather at the Village Chief's Office.

    Mr. Lurah agrees. Some people who will be invited to discuss the problem of the construction of Taman Awang-awang, have been contacted by phone by Bagas, and all can. As scheduled, gathered at Mr. Lurah's office.

    "Monggo-monggo, please pinarak ..." said Mr. Lurah who invited his guests to sit in his room.

    "Jih, Sir .... Maturnuwun, Mr. Lurah.." said the guests.

    There are five people who have been sitting in the room of Mr. Lurah, namely Mas No as the leader of the tour guide, Mr. Haryadi as the chairman of the people's craft paguyuban, Bu Marno the cook of Kampung Nirwana, Bagas and Pak Lurah, and Yudi.

    "I'm sorry, Mr. Lurah, there is less .." Yudi told Mr. Lurah.

    "Who, Mas Yudi?" ask Mr. Lurah.

    "Sir Carik, where?" ask Yudi.

    "Walah iyo, lali me ..." said Mr. Lurah who next went out the door, calling Mr. Carik.

    "Nrank ...! Carike endi maui .... Karr ...! Here for a moment." shouted Mr. Lurah calling Mr. Carik.

    "Please, Mr. .." replied Mr. Carik who then sat in Pak Lurah's room.

    "Thank you, Fathers and Mothers, this is just one mother .... Look, the father of the mother was invited to gather in the Village Office room actually at the request of Mas Yudi. Frankly, who has real work Mas Yudi, but this is our work together, all the citizens of Nirwana Village. As the news has been spread, Taman Awang-awang will soon be built into a cool tourist area, which jos .... Well, this is all thanks to Mas Yudi's efforts that have been hard-earned to get to Japan, and can attract girls from beautiful Japan, and hopefully Mbak Yuna does not return to Japan, he said, but stay in our village. So, this later let Mas Yudi explain, we want to be told what, anyway I ask all of us cancut taliwondo, working together to help each other for the progress of our village. After all, if our village advances, who enjoy the results we also. So, nggih. Next, my monggo leaves it entirely to Mas Yudi" Mr. Lurah said giving an opening speech.

    "Amciain .... No, Mr. Lurah. We agree that Mbak Yuna will stay in our village, stay at Mas Yudi's house." said one of the people present.

    "Rubber .... I also agree that Mbak Yuna became his wife Mas Yudi ..." said another.

    "Amiiin ..." The others agreed.

    "Just like this, later if the construction of Taman Awang-awang is finished, we are grateful, as well as Mas Yudi Mantenan with Mbak Yuna. If we need to respond to the puppet." said Mr. Lurah.

    "Again, Mr. Lurah ..." The others say.

    "It's on what by the way, anyway ...? We want a meeting, want a discussion ..., even digress everywhere" said Yudi who felt cornered by all the guests present.

    "Hehehe .... That's our prayer, Mas Yudi .... Mas Yudi rak yo agree, to ...?!" timpal Mr. Lurah again.

    "Neggs, amiin .... Maturnuwun dongane ..." said Yudi who wanted to immediately end the temptation of the people.

    "Yo wis, monggo continued ..." said Pak Luhuh for Yudi to start his discussion.

    "Thank you, Fathers and Mothers .... I'm sorry to interrupt the work of the fathers. As mentioned by Mr. Lurah, that Taman Awang-awang will be built soon. The plan will start tomorrow. For that I ask the help of the fathers, to accompany and supervise the development of our village. Frankly, this development is all later for us, so I ask us to maintain the smoothness, security, order and comfort of everything. And what I need to emphasize, our development is assisted by foundations from Japan. What we have to understand is that the Japanese have a disciplined work ethic, are honest, orderly and work hard. So we have to follow that rule. This is what our society should understand. Do not let there be corruption, work at will, as a result of the building is not completed on time and the quality is poor. We will get a fine later. Can you understand, nggih?" yudi explained his work plan.

    "Can, Mas Yudi ..." said who was present.

    "Well, if Madam Yuna, she will be our leader here. The Japanese assigned Mbak Yuna to organize our work. Including those who pay us. So we have to follow how Yuna works" Yudi said.

    "Well, that means Ma'am Yuna's a rich man huh, Mas Yudi?" ask one of the.

    "I don't know .... What is clear is Mbak Yuna is a lot of money." replied Yudi.

    "Well, what do we do, Mas Yudi?" ask the others.

    "Well, this will be my share. That's why we are meeting today, the purpose is to divide the task. Tomorrow morning begins work. For Mr. Lurah, I asked to be the supervisor of the project. Supervise all work from A to Z. Including if there is a handyman whose work is not right, aras-arasen, lazy, it is the obligation of Mr. Lurah who reprimands." explained Yudi.

    "Waduh .., looks good, but this is heavy. Yes, okay ready, Mas Yudi." said Mr. Lurah.

    "For Mas No, because of the expertise of the driver, later I asked to regulate the flow of traffic in and out of the project vehicle. There will be no road congestion. Find people to organize at every risky crossroads. Agree, yes ..." said Yudi.

    "Agree, Mas Yudi." said the one who got the assignment.

    "Pak Haryadi, who is used to organizing employees, I asked to help organize the workers. Organize the division of people according to the needs that are done. Do not let any worker be unemployed, while there are many jobs that no one. Including absenting workers who come or permission not to leave. Ready, nggih ..." Yudi said to Mr. Haryadi.

    "Ready, Mas Yudi ..." said Mr. Haryadi.

    "Well, the heaviest one is Miss Marno. Because Bu Marno can part provide consumption. Frankly, this is said Mbak Yuna, a Japanese person if working his body must be healthy and strong. Then it should be fed a nutritious diet. Therefore I asked Ms. Marno to prepare the food of these workers, with a menu that has nutrients. Please later Miss Marno asked to be helped by mothers to prepare cooking. Be made buffet or wrapped, no problem. The important thing is that all workers are not short of food" Yudi explained to Ms. Marno.

    "Well, Iha keep the name of what nutritious food is to, Mas Yudi?" ask Miss Marno.

    "Bergizi, ki yo there are vegetables, side dishes, and fruit." said Mr. Lurah.

    "If for example, in the morning we prepare boiled eggs and milk or green beans for additional breakfast, then during the day we give rice, vegetables, side dishes and fruit, how?" ask Yudi.

    "Well, it's a good price, Mas Yudi .." said Ms. Marno.

    "How much is it per person?" ask Yudi.

    "It means eating twice, plus eggs and milk, plus daily drinking and drinking, about twenty-five thousand, that's Mas Yudi .." replied Ms. Marno.

    "OK, Miss Marno, no problem. Ready to calculate the budget." said Yudi who convinced.

    "Well, Mas Yudi. Thank you." said Ms. Marno.

    "Well, then the artisans and porters will not starve and do not go anywhere to eat. Good of it, Mas Yudi .... The Japanese way." said Mr. Lurah.

    "Later for Mr. Lurah and all of us, also included in the ration of food, sir" said Yudi.

    "God .... Lha yummy tenan, iki ..." said Mr. Lurah.

    "Well, for Bagas and Mr. Carik, I asked for help in procuring materials. All the materials needed. Please later can be arranged, the important thing is not to have material late booking. In addition, Mr. Carik helped the duties of Mr. Lurah, while supervising the work of the artisans. While Bagas helped Pak Haryadi, listing the names of workers. Including submitting a recap of absences to Mbak Yuna, for workers' salary tally every Saturday. I see, Mr. Carik and Bagas." explained Yudi.

    "Pak Carik and Bagas, tomorrow Saturday immediately shopping material. For his needs, I will give a note. Hopefully Friday I can take the money for shopping" said Yudi ordered Bagas and Mr. Carik.

    "Mas Yudi, may I ask you a question?" tanya Mas No's.

    "Sure, please .... What do you want to ask?" sahut Yudi's.

    "That's when I'll ask four friends to help me manage the traffic. Do they get any cigarette money? Hehe ..., sorry, Mas Yudi ..." said Mas No who was assigned to manage traffic.

    "Not cigarette money, Mas No .... We're in the Japanese work system, all professionals. All paid. Including tomorrow, friends who regulate this traffic also count in consumption, both breakfast and lunch. Even Mr. Lurah, Mr. Carik, Mr. Haryadi and Ms. Marno, we all pay. Don'worry. Ms. Yuna alone, who is from Japan, she also gets paid. So don't worry. All those involved, all those who work are paid, can be paid." explained Yudi.

    "Thank you, Mas Yudi .... Ayem then." said Mas No who is happy to hear will get paid.

    "This, you know .., we are .... Work in their own place, build for their own citizens, later if it has become our own, fortunately also for ourselves, lha kok still paid .... What's that bad?! Hehe ..." said Mr. Lurah who was also happy.

    "Alhamdulillah ..." said another.

    "We must mean it, ladies." said Yudi.

    "Ready, Mas Yudi ..." replied everyone present in Pak Lurah's room.

*******

    In the afternoon, after completing the business of division of labor with Pak Lurah and the people who were asked to help the implementation of the construction, Yudi invited Yuna to the top of Taman Awang-awang hill. The goal is to mark the construction site. The mark was temporary, before the measurement. Monday, along with the handyman, will only be done the actual measurement, in accordance with the design of the building that has been drawn. Faithfully, Yudi accompanied Yuna to the top of the hill. This is also to smooth the development process.

    That afternoon the hilltop was deserted. The hawker sellers are already home. Only a few young people still witness the beauty of nature that unfolds. Of course these young people are dating.

    "Yudi, look ...!" yuna said as she pointed at the young children sitting making out on their respective motorcycles.

    "Iri, did you see the boy going out?" ask Yudi.

    "Not envious .... We will build a beautiful garden for them. A garden that can give happiness. Well, this place we're gonna build for them to date, Yudi." Yuna explained.

    The wrong person guessed to be ashamed.

    "I guess ...."

    "What do you think?" ask Yuna

    "No .... I didn't think of anything." Yudi stuck.

    "Jude ...! Ah, you naughty boys ...!" Yuna immediately tried to hit Yudi.

    Yudi running. Yuna continued to chase. The two men were chasing, until they reached the edge of the hilltop on the south side. Yuna stopped chasing after Yudi, as she saw the beauty of the rolling waves in the Southern Ocean.

    "Judi .... Look ...!" Yuna showed the beauty of the South Sea.

    Then Yudi approached Yuna. Seeing the beautiful waves. Yudi's hand held Yuna's shoulder. Then Yuna's hand coiled around Yudi's waist. And of course, Yuna's head immediately leaned on Yudi's shoulder.

    "See, Yudi .... The waves are always rolling racing towards the beach, coming continuously, never stopping, alternating all the time .... Really beautiful and friendly. Like romance in my heart, Yudi ..." said Yuna.

    "My heart also says so Yuna .... I want to build a garden of romance in the hearts of both of us. Is Yuna ready?" yudi asked as he stroked Yuna's soft hair.

    "Yes, I agree. We're gonna build a romance park. Where we both love. Is that right, Yudi?" said Yuna who clenched tightly around Yudi's waist.

    The sun slowly descended, leaving an orange line on the horizon. The sound of the waves kept thumping accompanied the silence. Two people who are in love, enjoy the beauty of the garden of romance. Until dark covers the top of the hill. Just a silhouette, men and women hugging each other, hit by the appearance of the full moon.
