Episode 35: Kesorean deh

After half an hour riding his motorcycle, Emir stopped by for a while at a mosque in the cempaka complex. “Until also, let's get down Nan.” Emir orders to Anan. The blue-hooded girl also got off the big motorbike she was riding.

“We want to do this?” ask Anan.

Emir stroked his sister's head, “We want to give this food to those who will break the fast in this mosque. You need to know, this road is an arterial path between cities. Surely many people will break the fast and pray magrib here.” Reply Emir.

Anan nodded, “oke sis, I understand now.” Anan.

The Emir and Anan walked towards the mosque, then met with Ustadz Akbar Pratama, the administrator of the DKM Mosque.

“Assalamualaikum.” Emir and Anan.

Ustadz Akbar replied,”Waalaikumsallam, what's up Emir?”

The Emir gave the package of food, “ini sir, we both contributed a little for the road users and worshipers who break their fast and pray magrib here.”

Ustadz Akbar smiled,”Syukron, Alhamdulillah. A good that is sure the reward will be doubled, especially in the holy month of Ramadan like this.”

Emir replied,”Sama same.”

Ustadz Akbar asked,”You two want to open here?”

“Afwan, no sir.then I am the same Anan saying goodbye because soon will enter the time to break.” Gumam Emir's.

Ustadz Akbar replied,”Iya, heart be on the way.”

“Iya, let's pack.. Waasalamualaikum.” Emir said.

“Waalaikumusallam.. pak Hendra, bring this food.given from the Emirsyah mas.” command Ustadz Akbar.

“Good..” replied sir Hendra.

On the way home, the notice of the breaking time has come from the speakers of the mosque and the mosque in the region.

“Announcement, the breaking time will arrive in five minutes.”

The Emir accelerated the speed of his motorbike, when he arrived at the front alley of the Arhan house complex, the sound of the adzan roared and the Emir pulled his bike over to a shop to break his fast. Incidentally, Arfan was there and offered two mineral waters in a cup.

“Nih, want to open, right??” ask Arfan.

“OK, thanks Fan..” Emir said.

“Same..” replied Arfan who paid for three pieces of mineral water.

After breaking the fast, Emir and Anan continue on their way home.

At home, Arhan, and his extended family have already broken open. Before long, Emir and Anan had just arrived from a ngabuburit event that turned out to be blurred (kesorean).

“Assalamualaikum.” Emir said.

“Waalaikumsallam, go home too... let's quickly open!!” mama Nadhira said.

Emir and Anan replied,” Well Ma.”

After the magrib prayer, the Emir sits in the living room with Echa, Icha, Anan, Anin, Vira, Rion, Arhan, Syilla and Kiya.

"So what did you get Han??" ask the Emir to Arhan.

Arhan replied, "This is Mir, there are airplanes, helicopters, Eagle, sunset and rainbows."

"Just like me and Anan, where are you going tomorrow??" ask Emir.

Arhan replies, "We play ball want not??" ask Arhan.

"OK." replied the Emir.

"Oh yes, then we will prepare to cover the homecoming flow ahead of Lebaran later" said the Emir.

Arhan replied, "Good Mir.."

Info Brief..

Mudik (by KBBI is synonymous with the term return home) is the activity of nomads/migrant workers to return to their hometowns. Mudik in Indonesia is synonymous with annual traditions that occur before major religious holidays such as ahead of Lebaran, Christmas & New Year, Eid al-Adha and National Day. At that time there is an opportunity to gather with relatives scattered throughout the region, besides of course also sowan with parents. Transportation used include: aircraft, trains, ships, buses, and

private vehicles such as cars and motorcycles, even trucks can be used for homecoming.

The word mudik comes from the word "udik" which means south/upstream. In the past before in Jakarta there was massive urbanization, there are still many areas named the end of udik or ilir (north or downstream) and most of the suffixes were replaced with the word Malay south or north. Examples such as Meruya Udik, Meruya Ilir, Sukabumi Udik, Sukabumi Ilir, and so on.

At the time Jakarta was still named Batavia, the supply of produce in the Batavia city area was taken from areas outside the city walls in the south. Therefore, there are Jakarta area names associated with plants, such as Kebon Jeruk, Kebon Kopi, Kebon Nanas, Kemanggisan, Duren Kalibata, and so on. The farmers and traders of the produce carried their wares through the river. From there comes the term millir-mudik, which means the same as back and forth. Scabies or hickheads when returning from the city back to the fields, so continue repeatedly.
