A Scavenger Heart Record
The day was approaching at dawn, it was time for the mind to get ready to make a living on the roadside. Do not forget, he performed the morning prayer first. His daily work is to collect plastic waste then he will sell it again. Sometimes he only gets a very minimal wage of ten thousand rupiah. He lives in a remote village, his father was unable to work anymore because he was hit by an irresponsible driver. Because his father was unable to walk, finally as an older brother he had to carry the burden of his family.
While his mother had to stay home to care for his father. Before leaving, Budi said goodbye to his parents first. During the trip, he saw a group of children who wanted to go to school. From the bottom of his heart he wanted to feel the school again. But that is all just hope, because he has to bear the burden and family responsibilities.
One day while he was distancing, he suddenly saw a group of young people who were drunk. Budi also asked a group of teenagers who were drinking, "It's already noon, you don't go to school." Then he replied, "What do you do about school if you only get a diploma, why do you go from here, scavenger base!"
Then Budi smiled as he left those who were drinking in a hangout on the roadside.
The more the weather gets hotter, it's time for Budi to take a short break in a shady tree. As long as he rested, he did not forget he always read the textbooks he took in the junkyard. By reading, his heart can be entertained and increasingly insightful. The book he likes the most is a foreign language textbook such as Arabic, Japanese and English. Sometimes he learns to practice it both at home or while he works. After taking a break, he finally picked up plastic waste and some items that could be sold.
When walking, he heard a voice asking for help from one of the foreign nationals. Suddenly he was hit by a man carrying a bag. Because in a hurry he finally ran away from the mind. Then the mind holds the bag, and then foreigners call Budi, "Wait!" Budi replied, "Yes, What can I do for you?" Foreigners answered, "It is my Bag, Give me please" while pleading. Budi also gave his bag to foreigners, apparently the bag was his property which had been robbed by unknown people.
They also had the chance to meet, a foreign national named Robert. Then Robert gave an ID card so that Budi immediately met him tomorrow morning. The next day, Budi was ready to meet Mr. Robert in an office. When I was met, I was evicted by one of the security guards because of the poor appearance. Then he met with Mr. Robert, with the security guard's scolding was scolded by Robert. Then he was taken into the office to discuss important matters.
Turns out Mr. Robert wants to appoint Budi as a secretary and as a translator for his employees as well as foreign investors because of his ability to speak. Budi also happily accepted the day. Since that time, his life has become better and full of luxury. Now he has a private apartment from his own business. Finally he can finance his father's treatment so that he can walk again. He wrote several fictional works that were known to everyone abroad. Because of his hard work, he finally became a famous writer.
