The President Enters the Village
Jono Doesn't Love Him

Some types of drugs are given using a small scraping bag. The young doctor smiled, "If the pain in his joints recur. Take this medicine, three times a day." he said to the old grandmother of the owner of the small boarding house where he contracted, two years ago.

"Thank you, grandchildren live far away, these two years you have accompanied grandma. How long you been home?" ask the old woman.

"About a month, or maybe more." Haikal answered, starting to lock the door to his room, returning the key to the old grandmother.

"May good things accompany your journey" he said, patting the young man on the shoulder.

Haikal began to step up, carrying the large bag he had tote. His eyes stared at the sunlight that pierced through the light of the trees that afternoon.

There's nothing in town. He now realized that, on his way to the village. The travel vehicle he was riding, his hair was hit by the breeze, not covering his beautiful face from the open window. There was nothing he gained after living in the city other than loss.

How did she become Hana's lover? All were still remembered by him, a thumping feeling. The beautiful girl loved him sincerely...

"Sorry.." one word of regret held back. He should not have been lulled by Zara. Finishing her studies, then accepting Hana as she is. The glitter of city life makes him forget the brightest girl in High School where they used to go to school.

13 years ago...

The beautiful girl smiled yet to take off her SMU uniform. Listing needs in his father's warehouse, fertilizers, insecticides, all did not escape his observation.

A really pretty face, white skinned, long black hair. Hana, the prettiest girl in the village in her eyes. Haikal could only stare at the dream girl from afar. Not having the courage to approach him.

His black skin, his thin body, became a porters of fertilizer and grain after he returned from school. Unaware, Hana smiled, glancing at him.

Does not have property or a beautiful face, decked out. Not having friends, unlike Hana who is admired by many people.

Until that day comes, a game in his SMU school scout group, while camping. He was sentenced to declare love to the woman he was expecting.

Until he clenched his hands ventured, staring at the woman with colored skin contrasting with his own skin.

Picking a Cambodian flower complete with leaves, the sap is still attached to the stem,"Where I like you!!" he said shut his eyes. Waiting for the slap to be obtained, followed by the cheers of the people who were there, sneering at him.

"I like you too." The answer from the dream girl was full of smiles. The other students cheered in disbelief, staring at her who managed to get Hana.

"Why like me?" haikal asked doubtfully.

"You cherish and love your father. You're like my father, hardworking and loving to his family." answered Hana's mouth, which still smiled at him.

Haikal was stunned then smiled, a feeling of welcome from the girl he loved.

***

Until things start to change, when Hana starts to always be with him in the warehouse. Eat lunch with Hana, a love that not only loves each other, without having to touch, given their age.

His father-in-law was so fond of him that he probably regarded Haikal as his own son. However, her teenage self once wanted to be given time alone with Hana. Time he never got. Colot? That was the figure of Dirga in his eyes at that time. But he still loves Hana, Dirga's precious daughter.

Until that day comes, Hana is the smartest student, while she is always ranked second. A smile rang on his face, enrolling him into a medical school scholarship in the city. Pursuing the noble ideals of a village youth. Eventually, the scholarship was won.

However, he did not have any money at all for supplies and shelter in the city later. Hana then broke one of her pottery piggy bankers, unbeknownst to Dirga. Give the contents to Haikal, "Go, then go home as a doctor.." sincere words from a young boy.

Dirga slowly intervened, financing his needs in the city. Haikal wants to graduate soon, to be able to marry his daughter who is old enough later. That's where it went, no other woman, or anything. But slowly his ego became too high.

The words of his college friends that affected him. His black skin had slowly turned white, his thin body had also grown into a proportional body.

"You're from the village? Don't tell me you're gonna marry a country woman,"

"Be a doctor soon, but still have thoughts in the village,"

"If I were you, I'd accept the women chasing me. Why have boyfriends from the village, city women are smarter and more modern..."

Words that made his ego even higher, raised his pride as a prospective doctor. The stupidity of a Haikal, he never loved women nor. However, starting to follow the words of her friends distanced her heart from Hana.

The day of the accident arrived too, Hana's face was stared at crying sobbing, screaming on the patient's bed. Her pure tears had flowed, clutching her fingers, "I'll cure you by becoming an orthopedic specialist..."

You idiot! Really stupid, he should have married Hana back then. But still, greed rules it. Not caring for the mother who always asked for money to Hana. Slowly the young doctor's heart became entangled in a lie.

Listen to the opinions of those around him...

"You became a specialist for a disabled woman. Haikal, look in the mirror, you're a handsome, aspiring specialist, rich women have a lot of interest in being your wife,"

"You're going back to the village, stay there!? Internet is hard, access roads are broken. Better just accept Vera, she comes from a family of being. He's been expressing his feelings for you a few times,"

"Have a disabled boyfriend!? You want to be like a social parlor worker, take care of his pee, what else if you poop, stay that way until old age..."

There are many more words that make her stay away from Hana. Humiliate him, exalt himself. Make it even further, especially with the presence of Zara, who promises her a better life. Started to lie, began to hurt her fragile heart deeper...

At present...

"Hana.." - She said, shedding tears, when the travel car had reached the village gate. A smile was engraved on her face, at least Hana had been happy.

This was his mistake, only a regret was left.

He began to descend on a rural road near his home. Gio greeted the older brother, running to hug him.

"Where's father?" haikal asked his sister.

"Kak Hana wants you back at the mill. If you're looking for grass for goats." replied Gio.

"I don't have any souvenirs for you. After sister shower accompany sister to the warehouse huh!? Brother wants to see Hana," he said who does have the intention to return the money considered debt.

"Sister, Jono does not like Hana's sister, wants to leave Hana's sister immediately..." Gio bowed.

Haikal tried to smile, "That's their household business. All we can do is support Hana. Brother will keep him, even if he can't make up for everything..."
