Notes.
The myth of the Javanese about ulekan or muntu or cobek that can drive away unwanted people coming to the house is walahualam yes. Way like this... When you have an uninvited guest, you go to the kitchen. Take it muntu and point his head to the living room where the guest is located. Don't be seen saying "Go home... Go home..." Soon the guest will be home.
(but I tried and succeeded... Hehehehe).
Okey... We're back to God.

The Baskara Family Gold Shop
"For Frank" said Arkananta who came to his gold shop in a mall in Jakarta.
"For Arka sir. Tumben father mornings father has come.." reply Frank while arranging all the jewelry that will be displayed in the display cabinet.
"Ara asked to be delivered to Bokap's house. He said he wanted to cook together, make a boat or something. His name is also Bumil... Love him" replied Arkananta. "Eh yesterday the playboy insyaf was here?"
"God sir means sir?" Frank looked at his boss.
"Yoi. So buy her a ring?"
"So sir. Take that design from Bima's pack of diamonds from Mr. Weston."
Arkananta looked straight at Frank. "God bought an engagement ring?"
"Yes sir. Yesterday came with her boyfriend, Miss Alina. Oh my goodness, sir... Same goes with God" Frank replied innocently.
"Wait ... God wants to lammar Alina?" ask Arkananta again.
"Should... Wong was teaching yesterday."
"Frank ! When will God want to lammar Alina?" arkananta.
Frank just shut up. "Sorry Mr. Arkananta, I am forbidden to tell you. Mr. Dewa said, this is a private show."
Arkananta narrowed his eyes. "Cafrank ... Are you working with me or the gods?"
Frank just grinned. Arkananta shook his head. "I'll find out for myself !"

"Playboy sok insyaf it wants a proposal but without any news to us ? What does it mean !" valentino's tirade as Arkananta makes a video call with Hoshi's son as well as Radyta Yung.
"Said Frank, God wants to be private without us." replied Arkananta.
"Branchisement !" chirps Radyta. "Wong is silent - shut up Bae!"
"We have to find out Alina's address ... Eh but Alina is boarding and has only been to her eye house for the weekend. I don't know the exact address but said Ara's eye-popping house Grogol Petamburan area" Arkananta murmured.
"I called Ragil. Ask for Alina's eye address." Valentino called Ragil. "Gil, Mr. Valentino. Can you give me Alina's eye address?"

After lunch, Valentino and Arkananta come to the house of Eyang Daud. The two cute and handsome men saw how the blue paint fence house looked beautiful with the many plants sold.
Valentino rang the bell and an elderly man came out in a t-shirt and shorts and flip-flops. His face looked astonished looking at the two men who were slightly similar to Gods.
"Njih mas's? Find who or what?" ask the man.
"Nyuwun Sewu's. Parjo sir?" ask Valentino.
"Damn. How's mas?" parjo answered confused.
"I'm Valentino Reeves and this is Arkananta Baskara. We are cousins to God Hadiyanto. Can we come in?"
"His brother was God tho? It deserves to be similar... Monggo. Enter" Parjo smiled as he opened the gate.
The two entered while the Arkananta driver entered his Toyota Camry into the house so as not to block the road.
Parjo also walked to the house to tell Eyang Daud if there are guests.
"Sopo Jo's? Ono guests?" ask Eyang Daud as he walks with his walker.
"Assalamualaikum Eyang Daud" greetings Arkananta and Valentino together.
"Wa'alaikum salam. Sopo yo?" Eyang Daud looked puzzled by the arrival of the two handsome men.
"Include Kulo Arka, I love Valentino (i am Arka, then Valentino), his cousin Dewa.." replied Arkananta while Salim to David who followed Valentino.
"Owalaahhh dulure (his brother) Lord tho. Nek Iki ora need to be doubted, gayane podho (if this is not in doubt, the style is the same)" kekeh Eyang Daud. "Monggo." the elderly man invited Valentino and Arkananta to sit down.
"Eyang David. Nyuwun Sewu with our sudden arrival but we were curious bin penisirin.." said Arkananta make Parjo smile small because Arkananta style similar to God.
"When will the gods propose to Alina? Because the boy chose not to tell us" Valentino replied.
Eyang David laughed. "Your God is why this is so bad... Dewa and Alina were indeed about to make a proposal ... But they want to be private... Only the nuclear family."
"But it's a huge violation... When else can we see the God of application. When's the show?" arkananta.
"God will be held tomorrow morning around ten... It's so real God's son didn't tell his family?" Eyang Daud looked at Arkananta and Valentino in turn.
"Not at all."
"Woooo Kuwi's bad boy ! Calm Eyang Daud. We'll do a lot of shows" Arkananta sneers.
"Kowe arep gawe opo Ngger (what are you doing)?" eyang Daud asked with a bad feeling, as well as Parjo.
Arkananta and Valentino are just grinning.

On Saturday.
The gods, along with Bagas and Sapphira, were already on their way to Daud's house, shocked to see how the road seemed crowded with cars they knew so well.
"Lho, there's a car Hoshi, Bima, Aji... " Bagas passes one by one the car he drives.
"There are bodyguards from Ramadan Securitas as well." murmured Safira.
"What's this?" the god is confused.
They went down and saw familiar faces.
"Pak Bagas is not flabbergasted, right? Safira's mother?" ask God to his parents.
"About a !" reply Bagas judes.
"Wah who wants a proposal does not say" seduced Bima to Bagas.
"Kok you guys know?" kekeh Bagas who immediately greeted and embraced with his brother-in-law.
The god turned towards Ragil. "You told the circus squad?"
"No sir." answered Ragil but in his heart was a little afraid also because a few days before Valentino Reeves asked David's address.
Dewa just shook his head and saw the art of Tanjidor there and Arkananta acted as chairman of the committee and immediately started the event.
"This is Wong Jowo's proposal, why is there Tanjidor anyway?" sapira muttered while laughing.
The god also frowned because the circus troupe made a riot in the area of Eyang Daud's house which of course made the neighbors follow the heboh bin kepo with the Sultan's family and even made a feast of the people. "When this proposal was made." the man was a manyun.
Tanjidor (sometimes simply called tanji) is a Betawi art form of orchestra. This art has been started since the 19th century on the pioneering Augustijn Michiels or better known as Major Jantje in the Citrap or Citeureup area. The musical instruments used are usually the same as the drumben. Tanjidor art is also found in West Kalimantan, while in South Kalimantan it is extinct. There is also a function of tanjidor music for the local area that is to entertain, but sometimes it can also be as an event to enliven the proposal but who do the proposal is usually betawi people.
Before long the company arrived at the courtyard of the house of David and again God had to count to a hundred in order to restrain his emotions. And now they are faced with the family Alina represented by several neighbors and Valentino makes God gawk.
What is this thing?
"Assalamualaikum kisanak" greetings Arkananta in the style of chanting. "Fruit kedondong walnut. we flocked to come here, want to propose a girl pujaan heart ... "
"Lha? Arka like Jarjit" whispered Romeo to Juliet who had giggled because this was the most chaotic application event that occurred in his family.
"Stitch the clothes with thread, it is neat please hang, If the intention comes nak Minang, of course we send it.." Valentino's grin to the God who has been frowning holds back emotions because the show is getting riotous.
Of course the event reciprocated the pantun became boisterous especially rarely people today do it. Although the proposed wong Jowo is known but with a mixture of cultures like this makes many people become entertained.
The god saw the caterer prepared is all the small traders who often sell around such as egg crust, ketoprak, nasi ubuk, siomay, there are even putu and gandos including cendol and ice degan.
Really merakyat nih event.
Soon the Gods accompanied by Bagas and Sapphira entered the house that had been decorated beautifully and the Gods could see how the face of the sumringah Eyang Daud enjoyed the chaos made by his extended family.
Wis Wis ... Meh piyeeee maning.
