Day 3 at Purnama,
Since dawn, heavy rain has poured into the village of Sukadami. The dense clouds in the sky did not in the slightest provide a gap for the sunlight to shine through. Cloudy blobs still cover the sky until before Duhur arrived.
Mahmud, Gus Harun and Kosim were already engaged in a conversation in the living room after eating together in the morning. Three cups of coffee and a plate of fried bananas are now left 4 pieces presented on the guest table. Abah Dul and Mang Ali were ready to go home first after the congregational Fajr prayer earlier and had not revealed the trunk of his nose.
While Arin and Dewi were relaxing in front of the television as well as the living room. In front of both Dede was engrossed in his own world by playing his favorite cars.
It just so happens that today is Sunday, so the Goddess of work holiday makes it more time to accompany her sister and niece who are already considered her own children.
"Rin you're still mad at Kosim?" sela Dewi asked her eyes not to turn away from television.
"Yes still Mama. Lah wong was all worried about him, eee. I'm the bad one" replied Arin ketus.
"If not Rin. Mas Mahmud has explained everything why Kosim still wants to go to Wonosobo and also Kosim has apologized and explained to Abah Dul as well, if he did not mean to forget the sacrifice of all. Kosim departed because he had sincere intentions for you and Dede," explained Dewi kalem.
Arin was stunned and then turned to her brother who was sitting next to her.
"So Mas Mahmud, Abah Dul and all of them are not upset and angry anymore?" Ask Arin.
"Yes not it. They are wise men of knowledge who can understand the position of Kosim. There is one story that Kosim had felt so that he strengthened his determination to accept Rin's work. Maybe you yourself never know because Kosim just told Mas Mahmud and Abah Dul," said Dewi.
"What story is Ma'am?!" Arin was a little surprised.
Dewi also recounted the events when his mother Kosim came to the house to borrow money to buy rice. Arin did not know because at that time Arin was driving Dede to school in PAUD.
Arin was stunned, her eyes teary after her brother finished telling her everything. A feeling of guilt immediately enveloped his heart. Arin looks so sorry, he admitted that Kosim was always the months of his angry outbursts. Kosim was never given money, all the money from the sale of his cilok handed to him.
"Oh Allah, I have been a bad man for a long time. Lord, forgive me for my harsh treatment for that long" Arin said.
Arin covered his majah with both palms. His body seemed to be shaking along with the sound of a hiccup in his cry.
The goddess immediately grabbed Arin's shoulder with affection. He understood his sister's feelings that must have been regretting her previous treatment of Kosim.
Arin's crying broke in her brother's arms. His body continued to shake while crying bitterly.
"Sir, I don't know at all about that story. Mas Kosim never revealed it, probably because he did not want me to be angry. Ma'am, I'm so mean to my husband. Even because I was also up to Mas Kosim doing desperate trying to undergo the task." Arin's crying voice was getting louder but stuck on his brother's chest so it was not so heard from the living room.
So long the brothers dissolved in novelty. The goddess let her sister spill all her guilt. At least the spill of his regretful cries can reduce the burden on his heart and hope that his sister can be more mature.
"Already, it's Rin. You understand your feelings. Hopefully you can be more mature and your mother's message must appreciate your husband and more importantly, you have to plant it firmly in your heart that you have to respect your husband no matter what his condition and under any circumstances" said Dewi whispered in Arin's mouth while rubbing her hair.
"Yes Ma'am, thank you Ma'am always reminds Arin. Ma'am is exactly the same as mother," said Arin left behind his sob.
"Well, yes I'm Rin's son.." God made Arin laugh among the rest of his stuff.
"Already, ah... Remove your tears Rin later if you see it so excited again. Shame, already have a child is still crying," joked Dewi.
"Eh, good lunch later we cook what Rin. Yes all thanks for the harvest of chili," said Dewi.
"Then just make a thank you invite neighbors around Ma'am. Yes itung-itung eat together like Ma'am, mumpung there Gus Harun asked in the doain," said Arin.
"Well, that's right Rin. Yes, we have been to the shopping market, the rain also happened to have subsided," said Dewi.
"Poo Ma'am!" Arin cried with excitement.
"Later Permission to Mas Mahmud all convey the intention of this thanksgiving," said Dewi.
......................
As the breath of Ashar time, the remnants of rain leave muddles everywhere. Although in the sky still show cloudy but the rain has stopped since 14.25 wib this afternoon.
At home Mahmud has started to get crowded. The people around Mahmud's house enthusiastically came to meet the invitation to give thanks despite having to muddle in his way.
Previously Mahmud himself did have the intention but had not had time to determine the time. Even he deliberately intended to distribute chili to be distributed to surrounding neighbors. Coincidentally with this event, all of you share it packaged in parcels other than besek of course.
The people who come are so many that lay a mat in the yard. After it was felt that there was nothing more to wait for, Mahmud immediately gave his speech.
"Assalamualaikum warohmatulli wabarokatuh" Mahmud said.
"Supernatural parents of all samoun present in my house. The purpose and purpose of inviting the fathers all just to invite a meal together, the thanksgiving of the chili harvest. Please sincerity to pray and pray for all of us to always get the protection of the Gusti of God, given healthy and abundant sustenance, amiin!"
"Amiiin.." said the invitation in unison.
"I happen to have the arrival of Abah Dul's friend from Banten, Gus Harun. He is the son of Kiyai Banten who will also be able to pray this Thanksgiving event. Let's just start, to Gus Harun monggo we welcome, wassalamualaikum warohmatullahi wabarokatuh," Mahmud closed his speech.
Some time the celebration at Mahmud's house was over. Each person who came was given a gift. The faces of the sumringah emanated from all the invitations who came home carrying besek in his hands.
Thanks to the encouragement of the Goddess who was spontaneous finally the Thanksgiving event was able to be implemented.
In the eyes of the neighbors and the people of Sukadami village, Mahmud is very well known and likes to help his neighbors who are in distress and therefore also the family of Mahmud is highly respected and respected.
Including, I don't know how many neighbors have borrowed money that does not pay. To the extent that Mahmud himself has mostly forgotten or rather forgotten it.
Mahmud never charged him, as he remembered, and his neighbors returned his loans. His intention was just one more to help. Pay or not let Allah Subhanahu Wata'ala govern it.
