soko Village is a village that is very remote.there is a family that lives very happy and simple.
on a clear day on Friday night, a baby boy's cry was heard.
he is Joni's younger brother named Andre who is only 5 years old, the first child of the Pendi family.
joni's mother is Sumiyati who everyday is a woven craftsman and Joni's father is a pendi whose daily life is a farmer.
brief story
10 Years have passed, and,
Joni has grown up to be a healthy and funny boy, and he is one of those kids who loves adventure.
in addition to attending school and playing almost every day filled with his father to the field even though Joni just play.
while her sister after school prefers to be at home to help her mother.
he often plays with his peers during ashar time until isya (at 4 to 7 pm)
then study and sleep after that because Joni village has no electricity.
on that night Pendi's family slept early, and as usual Joni slept with her brother.That night the weather was cloudy but the wind blew louder than usual.
making lamps that are in the family room die so that the entire house becomes pitch black.
joni's mother, as usual, woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and worship, but tonight the whole house was pitch black. so walk while touching the walls of the house to find a match to light a lamp.
"usually even though the lamp is out, it is usually still somewhat visible because there is still starlight, but tonight it is very dark" said Sumiati in his heart.
while still searching... Bu Sumiati was shocked by the blue glowing flying object that crossed the village, which made the existence of a match immediately visible while reaching for a match Bu Sumiati asked in his heart..
''what was that thing that flew across the village ?
there are no stars but no shooting stars." thought Sumiati as she turned on the lamp.
''tomorrow try to ask father ah. maybe tau. let's not be curious'' he said again.
after lighting the lamp, he did something else.
tomorrow also comes. Sumiyati said what happened last night to her husband.
hearing that her husband also did not understand because in his life Mr. Ibrahim only worked hard to support his beloved family even just a little time he had to get along with other residents, he said, so finally, Sumiati no longer asked about it, because he thought it was also meaningless if he knew.
Sunday morning as usual Joni woke up early to prepare to join his father to the garden while helping bring provisions for him and his father.
while walking beside her father Joni said.
"sir. tell me a story about a hero'' said Joni.
''later, the father of the story after we arrive will be better while sitting than while walking like this" replied Pak Pendi with a patient and affectionate tone.
a moment later they reached the cottage in the garden and began activities as usual.Joni's father took care of the garden and Joni began to play with everything in the garden.
it didn't feel like the time was near noon, and Joni's father was resting in the cottage.
"son... come here son, rest first" call pendi sir.
''yes sir'' Joni replied as usual.
''what are you playing today until it gets dirty all his clothes'' asked pak pendi.
''i work to make a dam sir there'' said Joni while pointing the direction.
''..... Joni smart yes.'' said pak pendi.
although Joni's daily life in the garden always plays mud, but he never scolded his son.
''hopefully someday you can be a successful child, son'' said pak pendi in his heart.
''here sit near the father.let the father tell a story'' said his father while giving a place next to his seat.
joni happily followed,
''father wants to tell me what sir'' said Joni looking at his father who looks exhausted.
''em.
this story is told in detail and sometimes Joni's father occasionally asks about Joni's opinion on what is described yes.in the hope that Joni can conclude and take good things from all the descriptions.
during the storytelling and interaction.Joni's father was satisfied because his son can conclude what is the subject of his understanding.
the time was getting hotter, and it was time for my father to take Joni to bathe in a small river not far from his field.
''let's take a shower first, let the body fresher as well as clean yourself.'' invite father.
''asik... come on sir.
it looked like a small rocky river that they were going to head to.
and Joni ran because she wanted to quickly get there and soak.
joni also began to reduce speed while being careful.
''cold..''. said Joni who was seen soaking in the river with a look of joy.
joni's father did not want to wait, taking off and washing Joni's clothes full of mud.
''father, I can drown this look'' said Joni calling her father.
his father laughed at Joni's innocent behavior...
after they finished they returned to the garden hut to rest and eat.
while eating Joni's father asked
''son if big then what would be....?'' ask dad
''I want to be a father, but I can fly, Joni replied excitedly.
her father laughed happily at Joni's response.
after eating they continue their routine again until ashar time arrives.
''son let's get ready to go home'' said the father.
''yes sir.'' while looking at his father.
once at home, Joni immediately took another bath because there was still mud left from the field.
''let's eat'' invite the mother who saw the father and Joni is done dressing.
finished eating Joni prepared to go play with friends of his age at the headquarters play.
''jon...here'' said a child his age calling.
''oy'' said Joni while walking over.
Endi son Joni's age who used to play while waiting for the Maghrib time to arrive.
''en what we want to play today'' asked Joni.
''em...we play ninja ninja aja'' said Endi while lifting the glove of pride.
in the courtyard of the mosque there are many children of his age who also play while waiting for the Maghrib time to arrive.
(the daily activities of Soko villagers in general are almost the same because the area is pesawahan.and the housing is surrounded by hills and rice fields so that the economy of the residents does not look lame. some young men and women of his village went out of the area to demand education both religious and other formal education
this village looks different during the holidays alone considering that some young people and many village girls are married and settled in the village of their wives or husbands. or because of work that requires living near the workplace.)
when it was over, Joni and Endi walked home from the mosque.they were always happy even when Joni did not follow my father to the field. then Endi is a friend who is always there for Joni and they are friends since childhood.
''tomorrow we play in the mango garden Yo'' invite Joni.
''you didn't go to the farm...?'' ask Ed again.
''tomorrow you will take your brother to the city of lori for school so tomorrow I do not go to the fields' said Joni.
''okay tomorrow we leave early huh'' said endi
arriving at the house Joni immediately went to the room to talk with her brother.
''brother, brother tomorrow leave yes.'' said Joni while showing a sad look.
Andre looked at his sister while smiling sadly,
''my sister just wants to study there. Joni, don't be sad. Joni should also be able to make my father proud of Joni. Joni later had to be diligent in learning yes.'' said Andre comforting his sister so as not to worry, even though his heart was sad.
the night had passed and the morning had come,
after preparing and breakfast Andre said goodbye to his mother and sister who still looked heavy to let go of his departure.
Andre took a deep breath while trying to hold back the tears so that his mother and sister did not grieve.
''Andre said yes, pray for Andre ya Bu,''
andre said, kissing his mother's hand..
''nah this is.''. his sister is a hotshot brother while kissing Joni's forehead and cheeks.
take care of mom and dad while you're gone, don't be naughty.
andre said again.
''yes brother.'' said Joni with a sad look at her brother.
while staring at the departure of her brother and father who are still seen walking away, Joni looked at her mother's face....
I may be a child but I know my sadness is nothing compared to my mother's grief, because I never once saw my mother cry.
but at this time the mother was crying, although she did not make a sound, but her tears kept flowing...
Ma'am let's go inside Joni said as she held her mother's hand.
''mom, don't be sad.
someday brother will certainly be a great person, but Joni will also not lose to brother''', said Joni to comfort her mother.
smiling, Sumiyati looked at her youngest child.
''mother's children are indeed great kok. let alone Joni.'' said Ms. Sumiyati while walking to the house.
after a while at home, Joni bids to go to Endi's house.
