Butterfly Night But Virgin
81. Drive out
In a village with a stretch of rice fields that have turned golden, the sun has almost sunk. A couple of husband and wife appeared to ride a motor matic at a slow pace, passing the road on the left right filled with a stretch of rice fields that are several days away ready for harvest.
"It's a good thing that our rice didn't collapse too much because of last night's rain, yes, sir. If it collapses, 'it will be difficult to harvest it, '" said the woman who is about fifty years old who is currently sitting in a motorbike. The woman has a sharp nose and her lips are full of volume, straight hair that is half white. But it still looks beautiful even though the skin of his face has a lot of wrinkles.
"Yes, Mom. Our rice isn't too fat, so not many have collapsed, ma'am. Because if it is too fat, it is even easy to collapse. Especially if the rain is heavy mixed with strong winds. It must be on the collapse of all, "that man with a face that still looks handsome at the age of fifty-five years. My eyes, curly hair and there is a red birthmark between the thumb and index finger.
"One more week, it's harvestable, isn't it, sir?"ask the wife.
"Yes, mom. We'll have a big harvest in a week, "that's the husband,"By the way, I'm very grateful, ma'am. Ever since Aurora came home to buy us rice fields, and gardens, we had nothing to lose. Aurora even paid off our debts at the Wirjawan estate,"
Yes, the couple were Aurora's parents. The suddenly rich one after Aurora came home a few months ago. All their debts were paid off and now they can have rice fields and gardens. Even their house that was once a reot has been renovated. The house is not too big, but looks comfortable and better than the homes of the people around the village.
"But, sir, is it true, Aurora gets all the money to pay the debt, buying the rice fields and gardens is the money from online gambling? Since when did Aurora love online gambling?"ask Aurora's mother, whose name is Miss Ella.
Ms. Ella still feels doubtful about her daughter's story that she said she earned money from winning online gambling. Aurora couldn't possibly, would she, say that she'd become a night butterfly? Then work as what can collect a lot of money in a short time? Nuyeul? Where might Aurora say that she works as a night butterfly or say she has tuyul. Therefore, Aurora finally chose to say earn money from online gambling. For that reason it made sense to Aurora. Remember, for Aurora. Not for us.
There are indeed people whose gambling work is rich. But only a few. People who like to gamble are mostly in debt, or if today they win tomorrow they lose. More to lose than to win. However, it still makes addiction, because it never wins and becomes curious to want to win again.
"Brother doesn't know, Mom. I hope it's true. Indeed, the online gambling if lucky can get a lot of money. But if the buttocks yes, can make poor and in debt. Hopefully, Aurora is not addicted to online gambling. Danger, ma'am" said Aurora's father Hamdan.
"Aurora is an adult, sir. Aren't we just getting married, sir?"asked Ms. Ella whose hands were wrapped around Mr. Hamdan's waist. It still looks beautiful even though the age is no longer young.
"Aurora used to, right, like Bima who was the soldier, Mom. The one from the village next door. But I know for myself, don't you, Bima's son's family is a rich man. They don't like to have Bima in contact with Aurora" said Mr. Hamdan.
"Yes, yes, sir..Though Bima's son was a very good son, yes, sir. Unfortunately, their parents did not agree that Bima was in a relationship with Aurora. I see, son Bima seems to like Aurora very much,"sahut Bu Ella.
"Yes, how do they want to have a daughter-in-law like our daughter, Mom? Aurora's just a tough kid like us. Especially just high school graduates. Aurora's brain is just fine. You see, Bima boy has been betrothed with the son of a soldier as well, Mom, "so that Pak Hamdan still put his motor slowly, considering that the road in the rice fields was heavily flooded after a night of heavy rain.
"It's a pity, yes, sir," said Ms. Ella, sounding disappointed.
"Yes, how about it, Mom. We were poor people who were in debt. We can't afford to raise Aurora. Aurora will even be married to the manager of Wirjawan because for a long time we cannot pay our debts. You feel like a useless father, ma'am, "that Mr. Hamdan sounds sad.
"Don't blame yourself, sir. Father, have tried hard to make your mother and Aurora happy. He became a daily worker in the rice fields of Wirjawan to meet the needs of our daily lives. At night, I still make fishing nets ordered by people. My father worked hard for us. So, don't ever feel guilty to us,"sahut Bu Ella calmed down.
"If we had stayed in the city. Maybe Aurora could go to college, ma'am, "that's Mr. Hamdan with a tone that sounds disappointed.
"Yes. yeah.. You won't talk about it anymore, "so Mr. Hamdan took a deep breath.
"We're moving here, using our savings to open a grocery store, uh, it's burned out. Make us have no livelihood and must replace the merchandise of people who are entrusted to our stores. Since then, our lives have been difficult. Until finally had to owe to the manager Wirjawan. She lent us whatever money we wanted, uh, to make Aurora a young wife. His wife has had a lot. But still less. Do you remember the age? His age is the same as my father. Ehhh. instead wants to marry Aurora who just graduated high school. Amit-amit, deh," said Bu Ella shuddering in horror.
"Importantly, now we no longer have the same debt as the manager of Wirjawan, Mom. Aurora can marry the man she likes. There is no need to be the young wife of that old bandot, "sahut Mr. Hamdan.
"Yes, sir," said Miss Ella.
