The light of dawn rushes from the mouth of the cave to illuminate a small part of the room. Karso and Romlah are busy enjoying breakfast by eating bananas. Already dozens of pisan into their stomachs.This morning the faces of Karso and Romlah look like sumringah not like the previous days that seemed tense full of anxiety.
“Pak after returning from here we just look at the house or land for us to buy. To silence the ravings of all neighbors and people who always look down on us,” Romlah said on the sidelines of eating
banana.
“Sabar first ma'am, later they become suspicious. Koq suddenly we have a lot of money can buy this that,” said Karso.
“Hahhh, I can't wait sir. Tired of living poor and humiliated continue!” sumpul Romlah while throwing banana peel in any direction.
“Iya, but we also have to remember ma'am. As much as possible we avoid suspicion. They must be suspicious if we suddenly become rich,” said Karso reminded.
Amidst their chatter, suddenly there was the sound of boisterous monkeys chanting while jumping up and down while konyong was welcoming someone's arrival. Soon a shadow was seen from the light entering from the mouth of the cave. Karso and Romlah looked over
simultaneously towards the mouth of goa.
The figure of the shadow walking into the cave walked bent over. In his hand was a wooden stick.
“Mbah!” murmured Karso and Romlah in unison.
Karso and Romlah immediately remembered the words of the big monkey who met them last night, that would be picked up by Ki Sapto. Husband wife was not out of thought, why the budcen can know and in accordance with what the figure of the monkey said that this morning will be picked up. The event was apparently far from the logic in Karso's mind and it was Rom who made no sense.
“Welcome you have managed to get the blessing of the King,” said Kuncen walking closer to Karso and Romlah.
“Iya, mbah. matur nuwun,” reply Karso nodded his head.
“Come now you bring the banana peels as ordered by Maha Raja,” said the pigeon reminded.
“oh iy, iyya mbah. Almost forgot. Come sir,” said Romlah hurriedly got up from his seat followed by Karso.
With a crush and greedy look of face Romlah tried to take all the banana peels scattered. Unlike Karso, he seems ordinary not so enthusiastic Romlah.
“What do you do to go home and bring a banana peel?! Hahhh said just ask to be cleaned, pake said bring as many as all,” grumbled Karso in the heart.
Because also pick up banana skin because there is no container also to carry it. He simply put a banana on his arm which was affixed with his thin stomach. Karso piled up the banana peels that were wrinkled up to mount up to the chest.
“Take a lot of pack, only so much anyway!” aspersion Romlah.
Romlah himself uses his skirt as a container to carry banana skin. She rolled up her skirt to her knees, fortunately Romlah wear trousers as a catch ********** so
not so parno-looking.
“How to take the bu, the container mace too,” Karso's whiskers are upset.
“Open your jacket sir to bring it,” Romlah said.
With a little reluctance Karso also obeyed the words of Romlah. He took off his old jacket and piled banana skins in the middle of the back of his jacket.
The Kuncen just a head bobble looking at the behavior of a husband and wife who looks very troubled to accommodate the banana skin that accumulates.
“If it feels enough, immediately we get out of this cave. Mbah has prepared a big meal,” said the Kuncen.
Before long, Karso and Romlah had packed banana peels carried by each. It seems that the banana peel that Romlah brought was a little more than Karso brought.
“Su, already mbah,” said Romlah still looking at the surrounding banana skin that is still widely scattered.
But how else there is no place to be able to carry it because the skirt is also full and can no longer accommodate it, as well as all the pockets in his clothes are full of banana peel.
Another case with what Karso thought that did not understand with the intention of bringing home banana peels, Romlah actually had predicted that banana peels were a treasure given by the owner of the gift.
“then, let's go to the cottage,” invite the pigeon then move to leave the cave followed by Karso and Romlah behind him.
***
Some time later the pigtails, Karso and Romlah have arrived in front of the pigtail hut. The smell of a chicken grill that was so appetizing to Karso and Romlah that made him suddenly feel very hungry.
“Wah, roasted chicken noodles huh?” chirp Karso could not help his curiosity.
“Hehehe... yes, let's go in we eat first before you go back home,” said the pigeon chuckled.
Kreoots…! The sound of the cottage door opened from the outside by the budcen.
In the middle of the room that is not so big, it seems to have neatly arranged dishes that tantalize make drool dripping. There is tumpeng rice and also there is grilled chicken as well as three dishes made of zinc. Grills
the chicken still seemed to be smoking. Looks like it just finished burning.
“Let's eat,” said the bud smabil took a seat facing the dish.
Karso and Romlah immediately took a seat around the dish. Although only rice tumpeng and chicken meat but enough to arouse the appetite of both when in the cave they are so full eating bananas.
“Let's take the chicken,” said the pigeon directly twisting the head of the grill.
“Loh Mbah, kok Just take the head,” Romlah said astonished.
“Hehehe... It's okay, mbah likes the head,” replied the pigtail chuckled.
Romlah immediately cut the thigh and put it on a plate held by Karso, then he himself cut the wing.
Karso and Romlah were seen eating voraciously like hungry people. The pigeon occasionally glanced at Karso and Romlah and then revealed a satisfied smile.
“Let's go, add the rice again and spend the chicken stock not to have anything left,” said the pigeon.
“Iy, iyya mbah,” said Romlah and Karso while chewing food.
As hypnotized, the couple again added a barrel of rice and cut the chicken grill. Very greedy both of them eat up to spend the chicken cock that feels very enjoy
that dish.
“piye nice to her chicken grill?” ask the kunken.
“Wah, ueeenak once mbah. In fact until add, hehehe..” replied Romlah who asserted Karso by nodding his head.
“Yes now you are packing, put all the banana peels into the sack that has been provided in the corner,” said the pigeon pointed to a piece of sack that was lying in the corner of the room.
"You must not forget to prepare more chicks every night one Syuro!" firmly the kunken.
