Two Pesky Monkey

Two Pesky Monkey

by Sumarni 

One morning Jeki wakes up from his sleep, Jeki is a male monkey who lives in a bamboo tree with his mother Jazkia. Jeki wants to find food in the garden which is a bit far from where he lives. There were lots of bananas in the garden, which were very big and sweet, which made the monkeys really want to go to the garden. His mother had forbidden him to go to the garden before because his mother was worried because the distance from where he lived to the garden was very far and he had to take human houses. Jeki still wanted to go to the garden, he finally went quietly without telling his mother. "I'll still go, I really want delicious bananas in the garden" said Jeki while settling down to get out of his house. Jazki is preparing food in the kitchen, the food she prepares is delicious bananas from the garden. "Finally I can get these bananas, Jeki must be happy because he's been wanting this delicious split for a long time" Jazkia went to wake him up and told Jeki that she had a very special dish for him. Jazki was surprised because Jeki wasn't in his room, and before that Jeki didn't tell him where he was going either.

Jeki was finally able to get out of the house without his mother knowing. "Hahahaha finally I can go to the garden without mother's hindrance" in the middle of the journey he passed the trees and hung on the tree. To go to the garden he had to pass through a human house, he was very careful so that no human would disturb him. After a long journey he finally arrived at the garden. How surprised he was to see so many large ripe bananas, his eyes were fixed on 1 banana tree that was bearing fruit. He approached the tree and took it. "Yeyyy I got a lot" Jeki's movement was apparently watched by several humans hiding in one of the banana trees there, apparently he was the owner of the banana garden. "Heyy monkey give me back my banana, or I'll shoot you" Jeki was surprised and rushed to run away by jumping from one banana tree to another. He jumped as fast as he could to dodge the human. He had fallen to the ground because he was too hasty, but he got up again. Meanwhile, the owner of the garden aimed a rifle to shoot Jeki. "Duarrrr" the shot missed. Jeki was getting scared and jumped as fast as he could. "Duarrrrrrr" the second shot from the garden owner apparently hit Jeki's leg. "Ouch!" shouted Jackie. Then Jeki lay on the ground, but he remained conscious and wanted to leave the garden even though his leg was injured. He got up and left the garden with his feet dripping with blood. His mother panicked because Jeki didn't come home, she intended to find Jeki. While on the road he saw Jeki who was jumping fast with bloodied feet "Jekii, what happened to you" shouted Jazki. "What are you doing, what happened" Jeki saw his mother panicked "I'm sorry ma'am, it's because I didn't say goodbye so I got into an accident, I went to the garden and was shot by humans" Jazki was very panicked "Mom told you not to there, it's too dangerous anyway what are you looking for there?" Jazki said while carrying Jeki to go home "I want delicious bananas in the garden mother" hearing Jeki's answer, Jazki was shocked "Jeki, mother has prepared delicious food for you earlier, delicious bananas from mother's garden picked them yesterday. But when mother wanted to wake you you not in the room" Jeki felt very guilty why could he not say goodbye to his mother even though his mother was preparing the food he was looking for "Mom, I'm sorry for not saying goodbye to mom" Jazki looked at his son and hugged him "next time you will obey what mom says and wherever you go you have to tell mom" they have arrived at their house, jazki took Jeki to his room then he took medicine for Jeki's leg. Jazki treats the wound on Jeki's leg "what do you feel, son besides the wound on your leg?" Jeki looked at his mother "no ma'am, just a wound on the leg".

Jazki is relieved that his son is home, because he is alone with his son. Jeki is the most valuable treasure for him. " Mom, I want delicious bananas " Jeki was very hungry because he did not eat any food from the moment he woke up, he wanted delicious bananas but because of the tragedy that happened to him he failed to eat the banana. "I'll get you, you stay here don't go anywhere" Jeki nodded his head. Meanwhile, jazki went to the kitchen to get the bananas she had prepared for breakfast. "This is the food you want," Jazki brought Jeki's favorite large banana. "Thanks mom, but how did you get these bananas? Where did you get them?" Jazki sat beside Jeki and said, "Mom went to the garden last night to look for the banana, while you were sleeping, Mom went, I hope that in the morning you can eat this banana." Jeki felt more and more guilty, his mother was willing to get him a banana in the garden for his sake. "Mother, go at night because at night the owner of the garden must be sleeping. So it is safe for mother to take the bananas, therefore I told you that it is very dangerous to go to the garden. Let me alone" Jazki reiterated to Jeki. "Mom, I won't go to the garden anymore. But if you go to the garden, let me come with you to take care of you." Jeki looked at his mother "Yes, you don't need to be taken care of because you are used to going to the garden and you know how to avoid humans. You just follow mom's orders not to go to the garden" Jazki said reassuring Jeki. "I don't want mom to get shot like me, humans there are really bad ma'am" Jeki was very worried if his mother went to the garden again. "They will be very dangerous when there who disturbs their garden, mother has her own way to avoid that human" Jeki looked at her confused "Never mind Jeki, rest and remember not to leave without your mother knowing again. If your feet still hurt, tell your mother" said Jazki as he came out of Jeki's room. Jeki was very grateful because he still has good parents, next time he will not repeat the same thing again, he will tell his mother wherever he goes because of parents is the main key to smooth every journey.
