Binding Cassava Leaves
"Every human must have felt insecure (minder), if again feel insecure do not be discouraged because it does not mean you are not perfect but it is a trigger for you To Be Better Person."
"No, who are you here with?" ask mother.
"Alone, you should have lunch first" replied Ucup.
"What do you want to eat? I didn't cook for lunch this morning" she said.
"The cup had brought food for lunch for my mother's father so now I take my father to lunch first" said Ucup.
"But the work of the mother picking cassava leaves has not been completed Ucup." The mother who seemed hesitant to eat lunch because she had not finished picking her cassava leaves.
"Mother don't think about it so that Ucup who continues the work of the mother's father plucked the cassava leaves," said Ucup.

Ucup heard a voice coming from his mother's stomach. She was embarrassed to hear the sound coming from her stomach.
"Mom should have eaten there first, I would have been hungry." The smiling Ucup looked towards his mother whose head was bowed down.
"Yes, I want to take you to lunch first." Mom walks while carrying cassava leaves.
After that mom went to the father who was picking cassava leaves. The father who was busy picking cassava leaves so that he did not realize the existence of the mother who was behind him.
"Dad." Mother holds father's shoulder.
"Mother." He turned his back and saw the mother who was standing before him.
"Let's eat dad!" Bring mom.
"Is mom hungry?" I look towards my mother.
"Yes, father" answered the mother.
"Didn't you have breakfast this morning, how come you're hungry again?" ask dad.
"Dad it's noon, try to see the sun." The mother who pointed him towards the sun in the sky
"Staff God, I don't know it's mother's day." The surprised father realized that it was already noon. Father who was too cool to pluck cassava leaves so as not to realize that it was noon.
"That's why we should eat first, about this already past lunch time" said the mother.
"Would you eat cassava or cassava leaves?" ask dad.
"Dad you mean don't you understand?" Mother whose forehead is wrinkled after hearing the words of mother.
"Did you forget that it was fitting to go to the garden mother only brought two bottles filled with water. I did not bring food so I asked the mother to eat cassava fruit or cassava leaves. So what are we gonna eat, Mom?" I look towards my mother.
"Here you go, come with me!" Mom pulled out my hand and they walked towards my father's first garden.
"Where are we going, mother?" the father who keeps walking follows the mother because of the hand of the father who pulled the mother.
"The cottage" answered the mother
They had arrived at the hut which was in the first garden of father's. They sat on top of the cottage. They looked at a plastic bag in the cabin.
"That's what mom is?" I looked at the plastic bag.
Mother took a plastic bag and opened it, it turned out that the plastic bag contained a bushel. Mother opened the bushel and saw there is rice, spinach clear vegetables, fried tempeh, salted fish and terasi sambel.
"Who is this mother?" The father looked towards the table that contained food.
Before eating they first wash their hands using water in a bottle of drink and then they read the prayer before eating. They began to eat rice along with side dishes, either hunger or delicious cuisine that caused all the food in the bushel to run out unnoticed.
After finishing eating, the mother arranged the bushel and then the mother put the bushel back into a plastic bag. Mom put a plastic bag into the corner of the cottage.
I felt thirsty and held a bottle in front at the same time I also held the bottle.
"Would you like a drink?" I took a bottle from my mother's hand.
"Yes dad." The mother took her hands off the bottle so that she took the bottle.
"Drink mother." I opened the lid of a bottle and I gave my mother a bottle.
"Glug." I took a bottle of water from my father's hand, and then I drank water from it.
"Together mother." The smiling father looked at the mother.
"Now father." Mother gave a bottle of water that was half-full to father.
"Glug." I took the bottle from my mother's hand and I drank the water from the bottle.
Ucup still picking cassava leaves in the scorching sun. Ucup does not wear a hat so he is exposed to direct sunlight. Ucup's white face had turned red like a boiled crab. Ucup face flushed due to exposure to sunlight.
In addition, Ucup's forehead was covered in sweat, he wiped the sweat using his arms. Ucup clothes on the back have been wet because of the sweat that was pouring.
Picking cassava leaves is not a heavy job because it is usually done by women. But that became heavy when it had to be under the hot sun that was so hot. A cup that feels the heat of the sun.
Ucup decided to rest and take shelter first in the cottage. Ucup walked while carrying so many cassava leaves in his hands. Ucup had arrived at the cottage and he put cassava leaves in the cottage.
"Mom asked for a drink."Ucup sitting next to dad.
"It's Ucup." I gave a bottle of water to Ucup.
"Glug..glug, are the cassava leaves mother enough?" ask Ucup.
"Already, now live in a tie of cassava leaves using a rubber band," replied the mother.
"Did Zai go home from school?" ask dad.
"It's dad." Ucup who looked at father.
"Why isn't Zai brought here?" ask dad.
"Zai tired of my dad just coming home from school to take a break." Ucup that takes some cassava leaves and Ucup bind the cassava leaves using a rubber band.
"So Zai lived alone in the house" said the father.
"Mother's got her cassava leaf ties in?" Ucup leads to a cassava leaf bond.
"Yes, can Ucup bind all these cassava leaves?" ask mother.
"Mom can." Ucup put cassava leaves that have been tied on the floor of the cottage.
"Then my mother's father came home, Ucup here how?" ask dad.
"Yes let Ucup here finish tying the cassava leaves," replied Ucup.
"Continue Ucup wait for the person who wants to take this cassava leaf. Don't forget Ucup asked for the money for the man" said the mother.
