Do you know what?

Once upon a time, in a small and piecefull village near  a jungle, there lived a husband and a wife. They were a diligent farmer and work happily day by day. But there’s one thing that feel so uncomplete in their life. Eventhough they have already married for many years, they still didn’t have a child.(hmmm how poor they are).  Everyday, they always pray to God, that someday they will be given a trust to take care of a a child.

“Oh my Lord, we always ask for your mighty to give us trust inn taking care of a child, and we will wait till that moment happened” said the husband and her wife nod her head beside him.

One night, when the husband and the wife prayed, suddenly the rough sound was heard and there was a huge,creepy,green giant called Buto Ijo came to their house.

“HAHAHAHAHAHA......I heard you both were praying to God asking for a child, huh? HAHAHA I can give you one!” said Buto Ijo in sudden time.

Of course both of them were very shocked and surprised.

“wh..wh..wh..who.. are you? Yes, we want it of course. I’ll do everything  for you if you give me one!” begged the wife.

“HHAHAHAHA...just rilex. No need to worry and wait again, I’ll give you a child. But you must make an agreement with me. Sounds good right? HAHAHA” said Buto Ijo proudly.

“ee.eee..everything i’ll do. Just give me. I promise.” said the wife nervously.

“HAHAHAHA...oke if you want it. I’ll give you the magic cucumber seeds, just plant it and take care of it. You’ll find a magic andexactly what you want after a week. But promise me, when this child already 17 years old, you should return it back to me. I’ll have a maincourse at that time. HAHAHAHAHA” answered Buto Ijo with give them a bunch of cucumber seeds.

“I promise. Don’t worry.” Said the wife happily, without thinking any risk of loosing her child later, and the husband received it.

So, in the morning, the husband and the wife quickly planted the seeds, and taking care of it a week full.  They were very surprised because the seeds grew into a huge golden cucumber.

“whoaaa... my wife! come here and take a look of this! Come quick!” said the husband screamed

“What happen?..whoaaaa am I dreaming? This is so big. The big one I’ve ever seen. Maybe this is a magic that Buto Ijo said at that time. Lets slice it! I wonder what is inside.” replied the wife happily.

Carefully, they plucked it and carried it home. Inside the house, the husband sliced the cucumber with care and caution. Suddenly, they were very shocked in the second time because they saw a beautiful baby girl inside the golden cucumber.

“Ohhhhh my wife! Look at this. Am I dreaming too? Look at her! She is very cute, healthy and beautiful! This is our daughter, I can’t believe this. Please punch me..punch me” said the husband.

“Ooouu my dear, you’re not dreaming. This is real. Now, we’re parents. Oh my beautiful daughter, we promise we’ll keep and take care of you as long as we ive in this world. We’ll give all of our love just for you. Oh Thank God!. I’m so happy to have you, my daughter Timun Emas” said the wife.

Years passed, and Timun Emas has grew into a cheerful, smart and beautiful girl. She was also very kind.

Her parents saw her ran and played in the garden cheerfully, they were so proud to have her, and loved her very much. But besides, they were really worried about their promise to Buto Ijo.They kept thingking about it, and the solution. 

“We need to see the holy man in Mount Gundul, I don’t really want that ugly giant take our beautiful daughter” said the husband to the wife.

“mmmmm... okay. Thats a good idea. I already thingking about that too” replied the wife.

In the next day, without Timun Emas permission they went to Mount Gundul to see the holy man in order to save Timun Emas.

“I’ve already explain all to you, please help us. Help our daughter” begged the husband.

“Hmmm....this is little bit hard. I just can give you this (four littlr bags). Each of one, contains cucumber seeds, needle, salt, and shrimp paste. Becareful, and use it wisely. Just take it. Timun Emas can use this to protect herself from the giant” said the holy man.

“Timun Emas my beloved daughter, we have to talk something important with you. Listen it carefully, and even this is hard to believe. Honestly, you are not our real daughter. You just came from the golden cucumber from the giant that given us the seeds. Sooner or later, on your this 17th birthday Buto Ijo will come and chase you. So, you have to believe me, so you can run and save your life” said the husband worried.

“what...whatt do you mean dad, mom? I rreally don’t understand this. Please say that you lied to me” said Timun Emas confused and started to cry.

Then, Timun Emas ran, but Buto Ijo saw herrunning into the jungle. He was very angry. He chased Timun immediately. Her parents tried to stop Buto Ijo, but he was unstoppable.

“Timuuun Emaaaaaasss...just give up and come to me. You’ll never loose me. Just turn back and I’ll forgive you. HAHAHAHAHA” replied Buto Ijo.

Timun Emas didn’t know what should she do, and she remembered about the bags given by their parents. She opened it, and found a cucumber seeds in the firtss bag. Quickly, she threw the seeds. Instany, the seeds grew into cucumber field. 

“Oh no... what is this thing?! Ahaaaa... cucumber. Oh yess . my favorite things. Hhhmmmm.....cap..cap...capp... I’ll eat this all. Hmmmm yummyyy” said Buto Ijo ate the cucumbers.

Timun Emas didn’t know that the cucumbers made him stronger. So, Buto Ijo chased her again, closer an closer. Then, Timun reached the second bags and found needles inside. She spilled the niddles to Buto Ijo. The needles suddenly transformed into bamboo trees with sharp thorns. Buto Ijo was scratched and bled.

After that, Buto Ijo was very closed behind. Made Timun Emas more panicked and then she reached the last bag, the only option  with shrimp paste inside. 

“You are the last. Please help me. I bet on this” said Timun whished and threw it to Buto Ijo.

Pray to God if we want something, so God will help us to face everything in front  of us

Never give up even seems there is no hope anymore
