"I thank you, and now you can leave because I don't want my daughter to see you here and watch over her." Sulastri said to the soldier beside him, then the soldier immediately returned to his hiding place.
Shortly after, Fiya returned with some earthworms he wrapped with teak leaves so that the worms did not run around here and there. When he arrived in front of his mother, Fiya showed the worm by opening the folds of teak leaves that he formed while looking for worms that were bulging the surrounding soil.
"Mother.Look at this, I've got some fat worms. Surely the fish in the river will be hungry when they see them." Fiya spoke happily and his hands extended forward to show the worms that had been caught.
Fiya's mother just laughed a little at his daughter's behavior, then he and Fiya went to the river that was not too far from their home. After walking for about fifteen minutes, Fiya and his mother had already reached the riverbank which would be where they were looking for a side dish for today.
~ Well, roughly like this yes sighting river 😉
"Mom, let's go downstairs. I can't wait to catch some fish." Take Fiya enthusiastically. While his mother is still preparing two fishing rods that he will use later.
"Wait a minute, kid, be careful, the river rocks are a little slippery." Said Bu Sulastri with a little shout because Fiya was now down and was on the edge of the river that was not too heavy.
"Yes ma'am, I will definitely be careful." Reply Fiya who now began to sit on the river bank and let his feet slightly submerged in water that is still not polluted by factory waste so that the water still feels fresh when touching the skin.
The river is usually also used to wash carpets in surau or from mosques in Fiya villages and neighboring villages. Because the water in the river is abundant and also continues to flow therefore, the river water is holy and also purifying.
"It feels very safe to soak in this river.The water is still relatively clear, although the color is a little murky because it brings mud deposits from up there." Fiya turned to the west and saw that there was a dam made to hold the river water so that if there was heavy rain and the water overflow could be anticipated with the dam.
Ms Sulastri then went down and approached her daughter who was still playing her feet in the river water.
"Let's kid, already play the water later you can be cold you know." Ms. Sulastri reminded her daughter to stop playing with water there.
"Yes Ma'am, this river is very comfortable if used for swimming. Unfortunately, today the water is not very high." Said Fiya with the currency continuing to look at the water flowing through the rock in front of him.
"Hust.don't try to swim alone Fi, it's dangerous. Moreover, this river once took a death toll." Said Bu Fiya firmly to warn his only daughter not to arbitrarily swim in the river. Because we never know what creatures are on the bottom of the river. We should always be careful, my friends. We must think twice about doing something, because we never know when danger will come.
⁇ ️It's better to prevent than to treat, right?
Bu Sulastri then gave one of his fishing rods to Fiya, and quickly Fiya put up the bait he had caught just a moment ago.
~ May you rest in peace yes cing, every living thing will surely feel dead. And it looks like the story of the journey to here first yes cing..🥺
Forgive the author who chose you to be bait 🙏 😭
~ Okay, we go back to the story.
Fiya and his mother had now started fishing in the not-so-deep river. They choose to fish in the boxes in the river, because there are many fish hiding in there.
And sure enough, it was only three minutes that Fiya threw the fishing rod. He already felt if someone pulled the hook. Of course, Fiya quickly pulled the fishing rod back and lifted up a fish that was red with a little color of orens on the head and also the fins. The fish is quite large with a width almost the same as the palms of adults.
If in the place of the fish author it is called iwak brother. And yes, "branch" here means red, because most species of fish are red and they are also predators for small fish and also shrimp in the river. So no wonder if the population is quite a lot in the river. The shape of the fish is like tilapia but on the ridge there are fins that resemble sharp spines for self-defense.
"Mom see, I've already got one!" Said Fiya happily to his mother because he quickly managed to catch a fish.
"Alhamdulillah son, you just put the fish in the container that is up there. Ati-ati karo ri ne iwak iku, landep kui rine, ojo ngasi ngeneki hand." Ms. Sulastri advised her daughter to be careful when removing the fish was touched 'thorn' the fish is sharp, and can hurt the hand if we are not careful when holding it.
"Consider Mom, I'll be careful when taking it off." Reply Fiya is now near the container used to put the fish caught earlier. But sure enough, when Fiya tried to remove the fish from the hook the red fish wriggled and accidentally slightly injured the ring finger of Fiya who was releasing the fish.
"Aw, it turns out that the thorns of this fish are indeed sharp. He should be a predator in this river ecosystem." Fiya said when he saw the ring finger of his right hand slightly bleed, the wound was not too big just like being pierced by a needle.
Fiya immediately cleaned the wound by sucking his blood, with his mouth so that the blood coming out of his finger can stop quickly.
Fiya threw the origin of his blood earlier into the grass that was beside him.
After feeling better, Fiya went down and approached his mother again to catch some other fish. Unwittingly by Fiya, something creeps in to get close to the place where Fiya threw the blood coming out of her finger. It seemed that Fiya's blood had invited the presence of an unusual creature.
