Made Crazy (Not Sane) By My Husband
Electricity at Grandma Aminah's House Deadened by PLN Officers for Riding Pay
After finishing his lunch, Tegar and Aisyah immediately went scavenged unaccompanied by the grandmother because the grandmother was sick that day. A moment after his two grandchildren left the hut to scavenge, suddenly someone knocked on the door of his little hut. “Tok...tok..tok..tok..tok” Sounded the sound of someone knocking on the door from the outside of the hut.
Hearing the door of his hut there was knocking from the outside, the grandmother of Aminah who was resting on the bed after taking the medicine she got from the puskesmas this morning, Aminah's grandmother who was resting on the bed after taking the medicine she got from the puskesmas this morning, trying to get up from his bed and walk towards the middle room to open the door immediately.
When the door of his hut was opened, it was seen in front of him a man in uniform who claimed to be a local PLN employee. The person named Mr. Hadi was around 46 years old.
“With grandma Aminah?” the officer asked while looking at a small note he had in his hand.
“Yes right, what's up nak?” Grandma Aminah asked back.
“I officer from PLN came here to charge an electric arrears on behalf of grandma.” he explained the purpose of his arrival.
“Oh,, from PLN.” said the grandmother was a little surprised.
The PLN officer was seen looking for electricity receipts belonging to Aminah's grandmother that were stacked with other receipts belonging to residents he carried in his hands.
“Mother, Asiah,, Mother Aidah,, Mother Ani.!” Mumbled the PLN officer was heard spelling one by one the names listed in the receipt he held and then he found the receipt belonging to Aminah's grandmother he was looking for.
“Nah meet A.M.I.N.A.H..This is the receipt. Here recorded grandmother has been in arrears for the past 2 months in arrears to pay electricity bills. How can you whether you want to be repaid now along with the electricity bill this month which the total amounted to Rp. 60.000?” asked the PLN officer while then giving a number of receipts to Aminah's grandmother.
Taken a number of receipts from the hands of the PLN officer that turns out there are 3 sheets with the number of bills per sheet each Rp. 20,000.
“Grandmother still has no money so can not pay now.” said grandmother Aminah to the PLN officer with a deathly pale face.
“Then we are very forced to cut off electricity to the grandmother's house until the grandmother pays off her arrears.” said the PLN officer threatened Aminah's grandmother subtly.
Grandma Aminah was instantly silent for a moment to think for a moment, then she replied, saying,
“Ya,, how else, if it must be cut off the electricity of the sincere grandmother Nak.” replied resignedly.
“Ya already then I say goodbye first Nek. Sorry starting today the power flow to our Grandma's house broke off. Thank you for the time, I say goodbye first.” limb while then hurrying to leave the place.
A few hours later the electricity that illuminated the small hut owned by the grandmother of Aminah was completely cut off by PLN so he was forced to prepare an oil lamp as lighting their hut at night.
Grandma Aminah then went to the stall which was not far from the hut was planning to owe to get 4 liters of kerosene worth Rp. 5,000/liters to be filled into the oil lamp that will be the source of lighting in his hut from that day on.
With a medium-sized jerrycan, he went to a stall not far from his hut. The warung in question is a stall owned by 36-year-old Bu Rosidah. In addition to having a stall, he also has a rice field that has begun to be harvested.
Arriving at the stall, Aminah's grandmother then asked the shopkeeper who was the son of Bu Rosidah himself named Ulfah, 12 years of age with Tegar but attended a different place, where he was, at that time he had come home from school and happened to be guarding the stall.
“Assalamualaikum, any kerosene son?" ask grandma Aminah.
"There's a granny, how many liters would you like?” ask Ulfah.
"4 litres but what's wrong first, son?" ask Grandma Aminah back.
"I asked my mom first. Buuuuuu.." Ulfah heard shouting to the mother who was not far from the place.
"What's there to call Mom!" The mother exclaimed as she walked closer to the child who was guarding the stall.
When the mother arrived at her shop, Ulfah said, Then,
"This is Ma'am, Aminah's grandmother wants to buy 4 liters of kerosene but owes first he said." said Ulfah explained.
Then Aminah's grandmother interrupted their conversation and said,
"Can't if the grandmother owes first, later after the grandmother has direct money to pay the debt?" asked Grandma Aminah looks clear.
"How about Mom?.” asked Ulfah who looked confused to answer what to the grandmother of Aminah was.
“Create what the hell nek owes kerosene a lot?” tanya Bu Rosidah ketus.
“Indeed why grandma, yesterday-yesterday I saw at a glance granny hut still has the lamp.” said Bu Rosidah.
“Yes if yesterday is still there, but today it has started to be cut off as the PLN officer nak.” replied.
“Why was cut off?” tanyanya.
“Yes, because grandma has been busy not paying electricity for 3 months including this month.” replied grandmother Aminah explained.
Feeling sorry for the grandmother of Aminah, finally the heart of Bu Rosidah softened, he then allowed the grandmother of Aminah to owe in her stall.
"It's okay, you can. Grandma can owe you here first." he said.

"About not if grandma helped Rosidah harvest rice?" asked Grandma Aminah hoping to be invited.
Hearing the question, Ms. Rosidah asked him again,
"Indeed, the ancestors are still working hard to harvest rice in the rice fields?" tanyakanya.
"Grandmother is still strong" replied Aminah's grandmother trying to convince Ms. Rosidah.
"Then grandma can help harvest with other rice harvest workers. Tomorrow just go down to my rice field over there to make ngaritin (cut) rice." he instructed.
