Anaya and Steve's wedding day is in sight. Three more days Anaya will be holding the status as Mrs Steve. Since noon Barra has been busy with the construction of tents on the ball field that became the wedding venue Anaya and Steve, and coincidentally at night is the ration of his turn to do the night patrol.
While running the patrol, he and his family and other fathers who diligently gather impromptu, when it was Barra's turn to patrol, decided to walk around for a moment while looking at the workers who are juggling the green grass of the village ball field that already looks like the standard first-class grass of a football stadium is now being converted into a ballroom floor the hotel.
There Barra meets with Akri, who is assigned to supervise the workers.
"Where is Kri good?" Barra asked briefly to Akri his personal driver who is concurrently his personal assistant now.
"Rebes Mister, the green grass will not be damaged even though it is trampled tomorrow during the event. Even if the weather is not friendly the floor or tent will remain safe from the rain." Akri replied that made Barra goatee while sipping her cigarette.
"Master is patching again?" Ask Akri who saw Barra coming with the Fathers of almost one village.
"Yes. Please find my brother a cart of fried rice, ketoprak and satay Kri, I'm hungry. All the cigarettes in the stall near his ex's house my wife ya." Barra orders Akri along with showing proof of money transfer to buy cigarettes at the stall.
Barra deliberately bought cigarettes at the stall even though there was a stall closer than the ball field. Not only because the price was slightly skewed, but he had a certain intent behind his profiler in the stall.
Setali three money, not only want to heat up Bowo the ex-girlfriend of his wife, he also wanted to show the two arrogant families whose houses are attached to each other, he also wanted to show the two arrogant families, his home is attached to each other, if the Abhimanyu family that they have been humbling all this time has changed. Barra was sure what he was doing would reach their ears because Barra understood the character of the shopkeeper's mother.
"Ready Master," replied Akri who directly carried out Barra's orders.
The gentlemen who saw Akri leave, were already happy, because he knew for sure Akri would come back with a dozen cigarettes they wanted.
"What are we eating tonight Boss?" Asked one of the men who was the same age as Barra, he was a close friend of Barra when he patrolled, Taslim his name.
The man who spent his day raising like Barra today. Taslim is the original settlement of this area, no doubt he has hectares of land in this village. No. Oernah he sold a land of his parents' lost inheritance. His life is quite simple with many rented doors that he has enough to finance his daily life. Taslim friends Barra is often called Bandar Kontrak and Juragan Empang.
Taslim just like Barra royal and philanthropist, it's just Taslim royal and philanthropist in religious activities while Barra whatever the moment he will be royal.
"Tonight I want to eat fried rice, fried noodles, boiled noodles, kwetiau, ketoprak, and satay." Replied Barra who at once also made the faces of the Fathers who deliberately did not eat dinner at home look sumringah.
"Wehhhhh... Eat us big." Said Taslim who was smiling happily. Taslim knew very well that Barra could not eat that much. The portion he ate was just a tasting. Her friends just want to please the Fathers in this village. Taslim considered what Barra did was a worship.
From Taslim's point of view as a devout Muslim, Barra has done commendable things both in the view of Allah and His other servants. Because Barra had the opportunity to make others happy with his wealth.
"Verily the charity that Allah SWT most likes after carrying out various things that are obligatory is to encourage other Muslims.”
It did not take long fried rice, ketoprak and satay have come to them even without Akri. The trade hatchlings look happy to be called by Akri to fulfill Barra's call. They already understood that their trade would be bought out by Barra.
While waiting for food for her to be ready, Barra engaged in a serious discussion of fisheries problems with Taslim who also had the pacifier of the father's legacy fish that had been gone.
"Today I played in the next village. The House of Haji Madun. He bought my catfish seed."
"Owhh did you deliver the fish seeds directly to Lim?"
"Yes, subhanallah he's so cool Bar. He's not like we rely on pellets as food bait for our fish everyday. The way he does low budget business. But it's a big profit."
"Owh yeah? What is he wearing, Lim? Don't tell me he's got stool?"
"Hahaha.no Barr. He's wearing taro leaves. During the day the fish are fed taro leaves. He made the pool almost covered with taro leaves. In addition to protecting the fish from the scorching heat of the sun, also filling the fish. In the afternoon when the taro leaves are finished he just fed the fish with premium quality pellets."
"Then what about the fish? Nice no?"
"Good Bar, the gurame fish in its pavilion looks large densely packed. His age was not ready for harvest. He gave me one fish to try to cook at home, the meat was more savory even though I fried it without seasoning, like what he said, and you need to know, I have cultivated taro trees in my vacant land in the next village." Answer Taslim at length.
For a moment Barra thought and was interested in what Taslim did, but he did not have the land to cultivate taro trees like Taslim.
"Saa is interested, but the problem is that I have no more land for cultivation." Tukas Barra to Taslim who immediately scrunched his eyes.
"Don't buy my land, I don't intend to sell it."
"Haha... No need to worry I won't touch your land an inch, though, you please stone me again to persuade Pak Haji Juki to want to sell his remaining two hectares of land behind my in-laws house. If you can rebuke him, I'll give you my car that you like at that time." It was Barra who made Taslim round his eyes.
"Serious Bar? The spirit of these four five I become." Reply Taslim who smiled happily. He looks excited to lobby Pak Haji Juki who is the younger brother of the late father who has many wives and also children from his marriage that has broken the nine times married.
