Rama just kept quiet while digging the ground that was near the furnace.
Diska was curious about what Rama was doing.
Seeing Rama who was just silent, did not answer his question at all, Diska finally kept silent and waited for what the husband would do.
Before long, Rama stood up, he approached his wife with a shabby wooden box in his hand.
"What is that, Bang?" tanya Diska curious.
Rama still has not answered the question from his wife.
He opened the wooden box, then showed the contents of the box to Diska.
In the box are 3 pieces of golden yellow objects, as big as 3 chickens.
"What is this, Bang?" tanya Diska was getting curious.
He tried to guess what he was seeing.
"Hold, you will know what it is" said Rama.
Diska took a lump of it, she rounded her eyes in disbelief.
"Is this gold?" tanya Diska curious.
"You think?" rama asked his wife.
Diska shook her head in disbelief.
"Where'd you get this, Bang?" tanya Diska curious.
Dimas stood up, he put the box back in its original place, then he invited Diska to sit on a long bench outside his modest cottage.
Diska waited for Rama to tell him everything that had happened.
Rama was silent for a moment, his memory returned 3 years ago, at night he left the house of Mr. Didin, Annisa's father.
"Uci, can I stay here?" rama asked Uci Desmi for permission after Mr. Didin's family left Uci Desmi's house.
"Can." Uci Desmi nodded, giving Rama permission who was still shocked to know that Mr. Didin was the killer of both his parents several years ago.
Rama sat in the long chair in the living room, Uci Desmi also participated in the chair in front of Rama.
"Now you know who killed your parents. Uci think it's time you know," said Uci Desmi suddenly.
Rama knitted his eyebrows together trying to understand what the middle-aged woman before him was saying.
"What do you mean, Uci?" rama asked curiously.
"Pak Didin has good reason to have you as a son-in-law, other than Annisa who is in love with you. He's after something from you" said Uci Desmi.
"What does that mean, Uci? I don't understand" said Rama, urging Uci Desmi to tell him everything.
"It used to be, 10 days before your parents died,-" Uci Desmi began recounting the events a few years ago.
The flash back on.
Uci Desmi and Rama's mother were resting in the cottage of the reot belonging to the parents of Rama, they had just finished planting corn seedlings in the garden owned by Rama's father.
They work together for a day (Replace work, today Uci Desmi works in the garden of Mother Rama then tomorrow Mother Rama works in the garden Uci Desmi) every time planting corn or rice in the garden.
Voting today is commonly done by Tanjung villagers for those who do not have the money to pay the laborers who work in their gardens.
"What is that, sir?" mother Rama asked when she saw her husband was struggling to step into his small cottage.
Uci Desmi and Mother Rama saw Father Rama carrying a yellow stone wrapped in a white cloth.
The two friendly women knitted both eyebrows when they saw the attitude of Rama's father.
Before long, Rama's father came out of the cabin.
"What are you carrying, sir?" ask Mother Rama curious.
"There's nothing, ma'am," replied Rama's father.
Rama's father had just come home from his garden near a tributary, Rama's father had just planted some durian stems in his garden, as he was digging the ground to plant his durian stems, his hoe hit with a hard rock.
Rama's father wanted to take the stone, and throw it away. At that moment he saw the stone glistening in the sun.
Rama's father looked at the stone, he was aghast when he realized the stone as big as a chicken egg was a piece of gold.
Rama's father again dug the land, again he found the same thing from the ground. He got 3 pieces of gold-colored stone-like objects
Finally Rama's father stopped his work and he brought 4 pieces of gold back to his cottage.
Without Rama's father realizing, there was someone who saw the incident, namely Mr. Didin.
"Have you finished planting the durian?" rama's mother asked worried that Rama's father had not finished his work.
"There is still one more trunk that has not been planted" replied Rama's father.
"Mhm, it can still be continued tomorrow," said Mother Rama.
"Yes" said Rama's father.
"It's late in the afternoon, let's go home" Mother Rama asked.
"Yes, come on" said Uci Desmi.
"You guys go first, there's still something I do." Rama's father told his wife and Uci Desmi to go home first.
Uci Desmi and Rama's mother went straight back to the village, they left Rama's father in the garden.
After the two women had left, Rama's father immediately dug the ground inside his bad cottage, in a dig beside the fireplace. Rama's father also put 4 gold pieces into the ground with a white cloth.
After that he piled firewood on the ground where he hid the items.
After that, Rama's father went home. He was sure that no one knew about the gold he had saved.
Rama's father was grateful for the findings he got, he planned to sell the gold one by one when he needed money later.
He will keep the secret alone, because if he tells this to others, then there will be many people who are also looking for the gold chunk.
He believes his life will be threatened. Not only will his life be threatened, the lives of his wife and children will also be threatened.
After completing his work, Rama's father returned to his home.
Three days after that, Uci Desmi saw Father Rama and Mr. Didin were arguing in the garden, when Mother Rama did not come to the garden.
"Where did you keep that stuff?" ask Mr. Didin to Rama's father.
"What stuff?" ask Rama's father to Mr. Didin.
Rama's father pretended not to know, the object he had found was entirely his right because he got the object on his property and he who found it was not someone else.
So that no one has the right to have this thing until now.
Moreover, the plantation land is land owned by his family of generations.
"You don't pretend you don't know, I saw you carrying a lump of gold yesterday" Didin said.
Mr. Didin hopes that by knowing that he can blackmail Rama's father to want to split two items found by Rama's father with him.
"Huh? What could it be, the thing that Rama's father hid yesterday is gold?" muttered Uci Desmi in the heart.
After that, Uci Desmi left that place. The next day, Rama's father and mother were killed in the garden, only that no eyewitnesses knew Mr. Didin killed both of Rama's parents.
The blunt law down made the murder case not investigated at all.
Flash back Off.
