The afternoon began to refurbish in place of the scorching sunlight during the day.A young man was seen sleeping in the front role of the shop that was closed. he only ignored the sound of cars passing by noisily and disturbed the ears of anyone who heard him. Doni was still asleep with his sleep, apparently he was dreaming and sitting in a room of a luxurious and large house. in front of him there was a vaguely handsome looking man and looked young.
The young man said to Doni who was still confused by what was in front of him.
"son.., take good care of yourself. Dad will always be with you wherever you go."
"si..who are you..???" tanya doni looked at the vague form before her.The figure of the man smiled and said back.
"i'm your father, son, you don't be sad and don't despair in living this life.take this bitter incident the test of your life, son."
"dad..?! ayaaah..!! huh.huh.huh.." Doni woke up and gasped to call his father.His breath was choked because the dream he had just made him sweat cold.
The young man immediately opened his bag and took the drinking water that before him was given by a good pp satpol sir to him. after Doni drank the mineral water and put it back in his bag, he now contemplated the speech that was in his dream. he still vividly remembers that present in his dream was his father's voice and clearly vague.His father called his name as well as a message that he still remembers.
The people who passed in front of the shophouse emperor glanced at Doni who was dressed dull and dirty.he never washed his face even changed clothes.in fact, he did not, in his suitcase there are still many clothes and pants that are still good.he does not want to wear them and let the clothes he wears dull and dirty.
He sat hugging his knees and was still daydreaming about the events he had experienced in the dreamland before, without him noticing, there was a person who threw two thousand coins in his direction. Doni was shocked and saw an office employee passing three people in front of him.one of the three people threw money two thousand three pieces and left as if indifferent to Doni.
Doni took the money and nodded.
"would I be a beggar, right..???"
when Doni thought of wanting to be a beggar, a thought arose when he was a child and the memory of Asih's aunt's story to her when going to sleep.
"man has two hands, two legs, two eyes, two ears, two nostrils and a pair of lips.God created our limbs in pairs to work together, if aden Doni's nostrils are blocked one, how's his taste..???"
"chopping is difficult to breath." replied Doni little.
"hehehe is right den. the same thing with his other limbs. his function of two hands to work or do activities that can not be used by the feet.so do foot work such as walking, for example, hands can't do footwork because of different functions."
"i don't understand what aunt's talking about." grumbled Doni with her innocent face.
"his short father.if we can still have hands and both feet, work the halal with our own efforts. our steps are to walk to find the job and when we can, do it with our hands" said Asih aunty explained.
Little Doni was still pondering over Asih's aunt's words, then he asked again.
"then, if the beggar how is bi..?? Doni has seen beggars whose hands are maimed or whose streets are limping. Do they deserve to work by asking for money to others..???" asih's aunt was pensive to hear Doni's words and before long, Asih's aunt smiled and said.
said explanation aunt Asih when Doni was ten years old.
Now Doni is contemplating the memory of the past and occasionally smiles because he misses the figure of Asih's aunt who is patient and diligent in work. Doni was still considering his thoughts to be a beggar, but he was still ringing with memories of Asih's aunt's story to her first.
Then Doni woke up and put the two thousand bills into his pants pocket.he continued his journey again into the city and somehow his destination was going where he did not know clearly. whereas next to the shophouse where Doni sleeps, there is an office looking for employees to work at the place.there is a small paper attached to the wall of the shop near Doni fell asleep. Doni just saw her and he glanced at the office.in front of the office there was a security guard who was on guard and was chatting with some young women in office uniforms. Doni was embarrassed and did not ask about the job vacancy.he waited for the office employees to leave because the afternoon was soon the light of the evening sky appeared.
Before long, the employees went home with their own vehicles and the security guard was also ready to go home. Doni immediately approached the security guard and said.
"excuse me sir, I'd like to ask you.."
"oh want to ask what deck..??"
"anu, isn't there a job opening in this place..???"
"there's a deck. Why the hell..??"
"the requirement to be an employee in this place is what sir.I want to apply but do not have work experience" Doni told the security guard.
"let alone who has no work experience, who has no experience, no one escapes when interviewed by the boss here" said the security guard broke the spirit of Doni.
Doni mused at the guard's speech and he stared at the top of the office.
then the security guard spoke again.
"your deck is looking for another job just like in a restaurant or office boy. surely you are accepted if applying in such a place."
"thank you, sir, for your advice, then I continue my steps.excuse me, sir." then Doni left the security guard and walked with his shackle down the outskirts of the office shop along the road.
The security guard just nodded and he went home in the opposite direction to Doni. the young man's footsteps continued to walk and occasionally his eyes stared at the uniformed employees out of the office shophouses and took their vehicles home. there are also those who walk with their friends while chatting on the way home to their respective residences.
