Jakarta In Today
Love story


The face is getting older, there are many wrinkles from both cheeks on the face and the black hair is slowly white then changed bald, Warju has felt the bitterness of life in the city of Jakarta, Jakarta, until now it has been better.


He will certainly always remember how his life story was so cruel to survive the cruelty of the capital.


Although his hard work did not make Warju rich or an abundance of wealth to buy all kinds of luxury objects, but from that all Warju can be a person who always grateful for every rupiah from his income, but from that all Warju can be a person who always grateful for every rupiah, either as a kopaja driver, or also become the manager of the second branch of the warung warteg owned by Mak wajem.


Warju's life is now gradually better, and when he was 28 years old, that's when warju decided to marry Abah Jamroji's son, Siti maemunah.


This one man's love story is a little unique, without being realized by the warju itself, when the eyes meet each other with the gaze of Siti maemunah, who is not, Warju will automatically bow down embarrassed without talking and sometimes also because the habit makes warju fall, hit even to splash into the gutter.


Every time Siti maemunah comes to deliver food in the terminal, it will make warju wrong behavior from the upside down spoon until the galangal is wiped out. He completely forgot about what was wrong or right.


Abah Jamroji knows the strange attitude of Warju when working, how often he daydreams, even though in his daydreams just think about how to meet the girl of dreams.


As his own boss, and sometimes only to meet, although limited to talking about terminal parking fees that are not very important. Warju is always looking for a makeshift reason to visit Abah Jamroji's house.


Suppose to give an excuse for forgetting to provide a passenger deposit that is less even though it is limited to 1,500 rupiah or ask about the proposal for the addition of a passenger seat even though it is impossible to do, or lastly, or lastly, he asked about the presidential candidate in the election.


But it was all just an excuse for him to meet with Siti maemunah the idol.


Because he understood the warju feelings, including the feelings of his son Siti maemunah, therefore Abah Jamroji acted about the relationship between Warju and Siti Maemunah his son.


At rest hours, Warju was clammy like a thief who wanted to find prey. Abah Jamroji asked in four eyes.


"Ju suppose that kowe demen is with my son, are you ready to propose to him, love him and take him down the right path ." Abah Jamroji said by showing firmness.


At that question, Warju was stunned, between happy and also embarrassed... "But who am I, Abah, I'm just a poor wanderer, a graduate of Elementary School who works as a kopaja kenek."


But hearing Warju's reply, Abah Jamroji was a little upset. Rise up his anger until it hits his Kopaja door.


"Gua did not ask you what work, how you origin, want you to be a clerk, parking lot, building porters, cilok traders, as long as it's halal why confused. The cave's asking is you ready, isn't it ?." Abah Jamroji's.


But it does understand what the nature of the Warju that always humbles him, behind it all, Abah Jamroji has seen in the life of the innocent man. He always put more importance on his family in the village than on a good life in Jakarta.


Set aside more money for him to send to the village, rather than eating Padang rice every day. Often also see how dear warju to his sister and mother where when visiting.


Indeed Abah Jamroji has judged, how noble the heart of the innocent boy who is a village that is nondil.


All Abah Jamroji's statements made Warju resolve, without hesitation and only need one definitive answer..."Yeah I'm ready Bah."


Abah Jamroji smiled with a slow nod of his head... "Next night come home, and tell your family in the village that you're going to bed in Maemunah."


How happy the heart of Warju who had only thought about the interests of Mother and her sister. But now Warju finds a simple happiness to create her own family.


Every chant of the holy verse of the Quran that has been in its care sounds more melodious and piercing until the tears flow in the middle of the night after the tahajud prayer.


Until that day, in front of him, the hand of Abah Jamroji firmly became the ruler, sharp and firm expression gave meaning in the form of a hard threat.


'I wish my daughter to be your wife, but once you make her cry, I will definitely kill you.'


Perhaps such is the meaning implied on the face of Abah Jamroji during the Kabul ijab.


And now....


Reaffirm the face of Warju Bin Suherman, because it has been years craving the results of the crazy idea of the association to help each other Javanese, years of planning it is now ready all that.


Gathering all members amounted to 183 Javanese land nomads from various parts of Jakarta. But the one who served as the chairman was Abah jamroji and the executive staff was none other than Warju himself.


Siti Maemunah who faithfully accompanied her, became the reason for a person like Warju to continue trying, devoting himself as a mediator for a better life for the nomads who really need help in the course of their lives.


In a rented place for meeting places and sharing information with fellow nomads, one of the members was Jaruki, a nomad from the town of Bumiayu, just armed with a diploma SMP began a career as a seller of cold drinks in the terminal.


Warju knew him, typical of someone who was diligent and always meticulous in doing his work, so do not expect to be able to just provide payment for cold soft drinks and hope to get a discount just for buying two bottles only.


But because of his thoroughness, Jaruki was appointed as the main treasurer, which holds savings from the nomads as membership cash and sometimes becomes a capital loan for each nomad who needs a loan of funds as capital to make a business.


After all the twists and turns did not make the dream shattered, and now every dream in warju is in front of him.


Of course, everything that happens in the life of warju is a river that continues to bring all the suffering, emotions and struggles so far to the flow.


Vacillating and sometimes caught in the thickets of the banks of the river of destiny, but all this is the path chosen by the Warju.


Sitting in front of all PAPERJA members, Warju seemed happy and felt that a more swift life would come. Be ready for warju to face all obstacles, because the Warju iron soul will not be destroyed just because of a small storm in this narrow life.
