Kai and Tejo's entourage arrive at an area that Kai thinks is so cool. The air felt so different. When down they have been welcomed by many children aged 3-7 years.
Kai was slightly smitten, Tejo and his group so gently treated them.
" Mas,, endi maem e dewe mas wis slaughtered kie (where the food we are already hungry this time)."
" Eh. mas not by je. Maem telo wae yes.(mas can't. Just eat yam )."
A lethargic look on the child's face. They also bowed while entering the house.
There is a joglo-shaped house. There are about 10 children in it. The house looks neat and clean even though it is very simple.
" Assalamu'alaikum nduk."
" Waalaikumsalam mas, you have guests to."
" Oh this bang bule, uh I mean bang Bhumi. I met you on the street looking for a place to stay. Bang bule introduce this to my wife Wati."
" Oh so. Please sit down bang bule. Sorry the house is a mess."
" It's okay, Wati. Thanks."
Kai sat in a bamboo chair. Wati and Tejo walked towards the kitchen. Sayup sayup Kai heard the husband and wife talk that he just met.
" Piye mas kerjone."
" I'm sorry that the harbor was deserted. I don't know what's wrong."
" Keep maem e boy piye mas?"
" Huft.. mas confused also nduk. Telo ne iseh (the yam is still)?"
" Still mas. It wasn't boiled."
Kai was moved to hear Tejo and Wati talk. Again he cursed himself who left his atm at home. Finally, Kai made a decision. He did not buy a cell phone. He'll give some of the money to Tejo.
" I'm sorry yo bang bule didn't stay. Please drink it."
" It's okay Tejo thanks. Oh, yes, the kid?"
" Oh them. They were the children we met on the street. Little pity has become homeless and they also have no parents. It just so happened that Wati and I had not been given any children so we decided to take care of them. Even though we realize you're having a hard time."
Kai thought for a moment. It was supposed to be Tejo handing this child over to a social parlour. Kai did not say that. He believes Tejo has his own reasons.
" Oh yeah, who's next to the house?"
" It's Wati mas's parent's legacy. We grow yams there."
" If I cultivate it you don't mind?"
" That bang bule."
Kai just smiled at him, then handed some hundred thousand bills to Tejo.
" Take it, let's just say it's the cost of staying here."
" Eh.. what is this bang bule. That's a lot."
Tejo who has never held that much money in his lifetime has only been confused. The one hundred thousand amounted to 30 pieces that really made him shed his tears.
" Use it as best you can."
" Thank you so much .. Thank you so much"
Tejo grabbed Kai by the hand and repeatedly thanked him. Kai was grateful all this time he lived without shortcomings and it turns out that there are still many people who need a helping hand.
Kai is welcome to rest. But previously he carried out his 4 rakaat obligation first.
In a simple room with a mattress on the floor, he laid down his body. Kai was thinking what land next to the house would be made so that it could just meet the needs of the Tejo family kitchen.
🍀🍀🍀
Adhan dawn reverberating. The cold air is so pronounced in this area. Ya Kai is currently in the house of Tejo, the location around Ungaran mountain.
After the morning prayers Kai was already sitting on the empty land next to the Tejo house. He stirred the ground with a hoe that was already outside the house. Kai made an elongated mound to plant. Kai thought he would grow vegetables there.
Although it can not be sold but at least the kitchen needs can be taken from the garden. It will also be more tidy yam plants that are only allowed to spread as they please.
The empty land is large enough to be planted with several vegetables such as kale, spinach, chilli, and leeks.
" Done."
Kai smiled satisfied with his work. He then sat on the terrace while flexing his muscle muscles.
" Let's say it's hahahah fitness."
Kai monologues. Some of the people who passed by looked in wonder at Kai. They had never seen Kai before.
" he's.. Sopo kui, ono bule handsome tenan."
" Ho o yu, sopo yo. Tenan white wine, sisan mancung."
The whispering of the passerby in front of Tejo's house went unnoticed.
" I hugged the land next to the house. It's done."
Tejo was really surprised, a city bule hoe in his garden. And amazingly the ground hoe is very neat.
" What's this doing to bang."
" I will plant vegetables who knows can help to meet the needs of the kitchen. If later mas Tejo will mas Tejo can develop itself and the results can be sold. Stop using illegal means to support children. What goes into the child's stomach will form the character later."
Tejo fell silent, all of Kai's words were right. He realizes his mistake and hopes to fix it.
" Well, is there anyone here who sells vegetable seeds?"
" There's a mas but we have to use a vehicle. Pretty far away."
" A pick up car last night?"
" Oh that I pinjem mas got temen."
" Yes let's borrow it. Let me drive later."
Tejo and Kai go to a vegetable seed seller while shopping for groceries.
Before long they had returned and called the happy face of the child. Kai was really happy to see the happy looking child's face.
Kai then lowered the seedlings and started planting them. Kai deliberately did not plant with the seeds because it would definitely be long. All because Kai won't linger there long.
From morning to evening finally all the seedlings are well planted.
" Thank God, it's over at last. Mas tejo do not forget to watered ya mas. I hope everything goes as expected."
" Bang bule want to go?"
" Yes, I've had enough here. Tomorrow morning I'll go."
Tejo nodded in understanding. Kai's arrival is like a guardian angel to him and his family. He promised to find a good job to support his family.
🍀🍀🍀
Rama's house looks sad. Just a day abandoned Kai they've been so longing.
Ana tries to call Kai's phone number but is not connected. Sita is too. Both of them leaned their bodies on the sofa in the living room.
" Why lemes?"
" Huft... contacted brother but can't be Well."
" Yes Allaah, brother just a day away. Come dong don't pity my brother later thought, mommy too."
Ana wastes her rough breathing. It was true what his father said, his brother had only been gone a day.
" Oh yeah well, last night what his family was talking about" Hendri said."
Rama sat himself next to his wife and struggled. This makes the youngest rotate his eyeballs lazily.
" Pampered fashion dad hiih…"
" Barin. Weeek. That's them asking us to match Kai with Sapphira."
" Wooah. Big no!"
Ana immediately responded to the father's words. Even he crossed his hands in disapproval.
" Why the hell An, your screams are heard to the end of the road there you know."
" This is mas, the family of Om Hendri yesterday wanted to ask the piranha fooled ma brother. Yes, I'm big no."
" Eh. Abra is also big no. This time I agree with Ana.."
" Akhza idem, not really the same model like that. Beautiful but. tck...tck…"
Rama and Sita looked at each other with the words of their three children.
" Kayaknya Kai difficult to get a wife if the model of his sister like this all."
" Yes, guys do you want a brother who gets a wife like what?"
The three of them were silent, they were busy with their thoughts looking for the criteria of her sister-in-law.
" He who is clear must be sholeha." Ana.
" Good, soft, motherly." Abra.
" Ehmm beautiful bonus anyway, which can certainly love mommy, Dad, and us." Akhza.
Sita listened with a smile. Truly these three children want his brother to get the best wife.
" You pray brother yes, let brother's soul mate be hastened and brother get a wife like you said earlier."
