At the End of the Waiting (Love of the Soldier)
CHAPTER 39. HUT Village S
Today coincides with Sunday, Desa S is holding a race to enliven the anniversary of the village. All villagers who have the ability are required to participate and the rest are invited to participate in enlivening and enlivening the various birthday welcoming events.
Of course this opportunity is followed and glimpsed by villagers who have potential. In addition to enlivening the anniversary of the village, these competitions aim to tighten the cord of friendship and cohesiveness of fellow villagers. With this race is expected to increase the creativity and spirit of the villagers to work together and help each other.
As of now, Viara and her teacher friends also intend to take part in a cooking competition held in front of the village hall. Seen in front of the village hall is already very crowded with groups of mothers of the villagers. Now everyone is listening to the opening ceremony by the village head with the traditional chairman beside him
"In order to commemorate the 50th anniversary of HUT Village S, we leaders and village councils held various types of competitions to enliven the anniversary of our village. And for the groups of mothers, on this occasion we are holding one of the events enlivening the HUT of this village with a competition that is favored by all mothers, namely the cooking competition. Hmm, if this is all because of the proposals of the mothers, then we are ready to provide all the needs and equipment for the implementation of this race" Seru Pak Head Village received a happy call from the participants of the mother-mother group
"Hey begging, why are we called mothers well, when we are still young, not married anymore" Syifa whispered with a slightly irritated look
"You know our names that villagers often call? Mother Teacher, so it is natural that we are also called mothers" said Ila emphasized the Mother Teacher section with a voice that is also half whispered
"Dad Bu Syifa, mending call the mothers. Kan here is more dominant mothers, if the girls are not too much anyway" said Miss Elly
"Dad Bu Elly was right, try to replace the names of girls not mothers, how the response of Mothers later" whispered Ila while holding back laughter
"After that, let's listen to the welcome from the Village Chief, after that it's up to you to do what" said Viara while watching the Village Chief who was opening the event in front there
"Show if our village has a wealth of food even though the food is made from simple ingredients, namely cassava. Show the compactness and creativity of mothers all in processing the cassava into food that is ready to eat. So straight away, the cooking competition between our mothers group opened" Seru Desa head patted Mic in front of him
Prok..... Prok.... Prok... (riuh all the mothers participants and spectators of the continuity of the race).
After the reception was completed, the groups of mothers were enthusiastic and headed to their respective tents that had previously been prepared by the committee ranging from food ingredients, kitchen spices and also cooking utensils.
"What do we want to do with this cassava?" Syifa asked while holding a cassava in her hand. Hearing Syifa's question, all the 6 teachers fell silent, because at first they did not know how to process cassava.
"We make brownies cassava just friends" Viara suggested breaking the anxiety
"Huh, cassava brownies!!! can you?" Syifa did not believe
"Can dong Syifa, when I live with my grandmother in the village, my grandmother and I always make cassava brownies if there is another traditional event in the village" said Viara explained
"So how, we make cassava brownies or there are other menus that cross the minds of colleagues all?" Ask Viara
"Brownies cassava aja Viara, after all we do not know how to process cassava" Cengir Syifa was taken by his colleagues
"Yaudah, let me teach you here" Invite Viara advance to collect all the materials assisted by her co-workers. The ingredients Viara uses to make cassava brownies such as wheat flour, cassava, milk powder, sugar, vanilla, eggs, vegetable oil and others
"Viara, the next step is diapain cassava?" Ask Syifa
"the cassava is peeled and cleaned well, after it has just been shredded" Viara explained
"OK" answered the teachers simultaneously and began peeling the cassava together. Viara smiled her smile at the cooperation of her friends and refocused on her work. Viara heats the steam and provides 4 containers to put the dough, because in addition to the race, their homemade cassava brownies can also be tasted by the maker and their other friends.
"This is Viara, the cassava has been shredded. What next step?" Tanya Ila with a grated cassava container in her hand
"come here, we will process together the cassava dough" Viara invited to sit on the ground with tarpaulin followed by her friends
The first step, Viara mix the shredded cassava together with wheat and milk that has been sifted before. After that Viara added vegetable oil to the dough and re-mixed it until evenly.
"Let's put this dough in the four containers that I have prepared before" Viara ordered
"Well" answered everything simultaneously and began to arrange the dough made earlier into a mold that had been smeared with margarine before by Viara.
After the dough has been neatly arranged in the container, the teachers put it into the steamer on Viara's instructions.
40 Minutes later
"Let's guys, the brownies are ripe, lifted up immediately" said Viara softly
"Each commander" answered all of them simultaneously and began to take out the container containing the finished dough
"Wow Viara, the brownies are beautiful!!! though the basic material is made of cassava" cried Syifas sparkling
"yes Viara, only this time I saw cassava can be processed into brownies like this" exclaimed Bu Elly sparkling with her friends
"Alhamdulillah friends. Let's decorate the brownies, I've prepared chocolate cream on the table earlier" Viara asked. Viara and her colleagues also began to decorate the dough as beautiful as possible according to their expertise.
While decorating the dough, Viara saw a little boy sitting alone under a tree looking up
"Ila, please continue to decorate the brownies well, I have some business for a while. I'll be back as soon as possible" Viara asked gently
"Well Viara, finish your business before the assessment starts well" Ila said with a nod of her head with a smile. Viara immediately exited the tent and set her foot towards the little boy
"Deek, why sit and cry here? why not play with your friends?" Viara asked softly
"Hiks.. Teacher, Evan's kite got stuck in the tree. Evan can not go up because the tree is high, Evan's feet are not up to climb the tree. If Evan Suru mom buys a new one, I can't buy it because I don't have a lot of money.." The boy explained while crying.
"Calm down the deck, then help brother take it on his kite" said Viara rubbing gently the top of the little boy's head. Viara turned her head up and stared intensely at the tree in front of her
"Hmm I can definitely climb it, after all there are some branches and gaps that I can make a foothold" Viara murmured. Viara began to lift her long tok and tried to climb the tree.
After some time, Viara has now reached the top of the tree and rests on a branch large enough to take the kite of the boy who was stuck in front of him
"Alhamdulillah, finally it can" muttered Viara glad to see the kite in her hand
"daddy, this is the kite. Arrested yah" Viara ordered up there. Viara dropped the kite down and the little boy swiftly caught it
"Yeah!!!Thank you Master's mother" exclaimed the boy wiping away his tears and jumping around in excitement with a kite in his hand
Viara smiled at the joy of the child, but when Viara turned her head
Degs....
The smile on his face slowly dissipated and cold sweat instantly soaked his forehead with a spinning sensation staring at the heights below
The little boy down there stopped jumping for joy and stared at the girl who helped him still perched up there
"Master, mother why is it still on top of that? I can't go down well" the little man asked a little worriedly
"well, Iyah deck, mother can not go down" said Viara a little embarrassed to say the truth
"Mother Teacher how the hell, can you climb, why can't you go down?" Ask the boy
"Oh deck, I got this way because of you too, try not to climb a tree for you, of course you still cry down there. If you my friend I've raised your ears. Huh basic!!!" inner Viara snorted in annoyance
"Hey Dek, rather than wondering, mending to seek help to help mother down deh" Viara's orders tried to suppress her frustration and fear
"Good dad ma'am, while Evan seeks help first" exclaimed Evan began to run towards the crowd.
After some time, Evan has returned to meet Viara while pulling the hand of a man in a striped uniform
"That's a soldier, my teacher's mother is up there" Evan said anxiously as he pointed up at the tree. The man turned to look up, as soon as his crisp laughter broke to see the girl he loved was up there with the look of his face annoyed
"Oh deck, why don't you make sure he's here anyway" Viara grumbled inwardly
"Hey baby, what's up in the tree? find insects?" Andra asked while holding back a laugh
"Not looking for insects, but nyari brother" annoyed Viara
"Nyari brother? my brother's in the field, my dear, not in the tree"
"Udah bang, rather than laughing mute mending help adek down" ordered Viara from up there
"Pick the deck, you'll catch it" Andra said softly
"no bang, adek do not want to jump. adek afraid!!" lirih Viara returned terrified staring at the sensation of rotating heights below
"Just jump, baby, it's okay, brother will catch you. So you calm down well and follow brother's intrusion" Andra ordered gently
"don't want to bang, I'm afraid heavy brother can't catch adek. brother look for the stairs aja well to help adek down" pinta Viara frightened.
"Oh my God, the deck, your body is small and skinny baby, so you don't mind catching you, jump baby" said Andra trying to stay calm facing the girl above him
"come bang find my stairs" Viara pinta
"Hmmm well deck, stay up there well, brother find the stairs first" Andra said down there
"Dad bang, hurry back well bang, adek scared alone here" Viara's pinta quivered in fear. Andra nodded and started running for the stairs.
It's been three minutes Andra went to look for the stairs but signs of him coming back are not visible
"Where are you, how long?" viara muttered increasingly in fear with cold sweat drenching her forehead.
When Viara fixed her standing position, Viara accidentally stepped on her back long skirt until Viara lost her balance and fell down
"AAKHH" Shouted Viara in fear and closed her eyes
Bugh...
"Am I dead now? how come I don't feel pain?" inner Viara wondered still in a state of closing her eyes
"Maybe when I live, I always do good so when I die, I don't feel any pain" Viara said in her heart still closing her eyes
"Hhh wait, I'm not dead yet. I'm actually still breathing. The soil is so soft" Viara said in her heart. Due to her confusion, Viara slowly opened her eyes and was stunned to realize that she was in the arms of a handsome man with a look on her face that looked anxious
"Bangs.... Bang Pandu" muttered Viara was stunned for quite a long time staring at the man who was also staring at him right now
"Is it okay?" Ask a gentle Guide
"nothing bang, thank you for nolongin adek yah" said Viara smiled sweetly at her rescue man. The two looked at each other and threw smiles at each other with Viara's position still in Pandu's arms
"EKHM" Andra thundered to surprise the two until the reflex guide lowered Viara from her sling. Viara cleaned her clothes and stepped closer to Andra
"Sir, you're okay, right? no one was hurt, right?" Andra asked worriedly while cupping Viara's two cheeks
"no bang, it's okay" said Viara touching Andra's hand on her cheek while smiling.
"Why did he fall?" Ask Andra worriedly. Viara smilingly looked at the anxious face of her lover and started to tell her everything
"Luckily, Pandu was quick to catch the adek bang, otherwise it might not be in front of my brother now" said Viara smiling sweetly at Andra
"Thank God, then dAk, thank you for helping Viara yah Pandu" Andra said smiling sincerely at Pandu
"Together bang" answered Pandu trying to put his smile behind the jealousy that hit his heart again
"Let's get our deck back to the field, maybe the assessment of the cooking competition will start soon" asked Andra to hold Viara's hand.
"Let's bang" Viara replied smiling and started walking hand in hand with Andra.
Viara turned her head back and showed her smile, her most sweet and sincere smile which she rarely showed by friends except for her family
"Thank you Pandu, thank you for always protecting me at all times" Viara said in her heart while showing her smile
"Sama-sama deck. I once promised to protect you always, then I will fulfill that promise by taking care of you with all my heart because I love you always even though my life is at stake" Pandu replied to her smile seeing Viara's sincere smile for her. it occurred to Pandu to say those words, as if there was a strong inner bond between the two but both of them were not aware of it.
