KETUPEK

This story I adopt from Indonesian funny story, so there might be some part seems awkward, hehheeXD Here it goes..

A roundsman selling peanut like usual vend his peanut along the river bank.
“Nut..Nut..Peanuttttt….”he yelled. And suddenly, when he shove his wagon downhill, he tripped and get lost of his wagon to the river.

Plunk..it sank, the wagon…”Huu.. huuu…” he cried..”How am I gonna feed my wife and son later on? Huu..huuu..” He complained..

And suddenly, a kind hearted angel show up and ask him “Hieee..Ketupek?? What’s up?? Why are you crying like that??”

“Ohhh, my angel, I tripped and lost my wagon, and now my wagon sank to the river..huu..huuuu…”

“Allright, Easy, I’ll take it for you.” And then the angel disappeared and show up again with a wagon made of gold and full of bottle of diamonds.”

“Is this yours?” Asked the angel..

“No, of course not. My wagon isn’t as good as that one. How can I have a gold wagon full of diamond’s bottle if I only get 200 thousands rupiahs a month??”

Hearing this the angel disappeared again and show up with a wagon made of silver and full of bottle of bronze.”

“Is this yours??” The angel asked again..

“No. Oh kind angel, my wagon is just made of ordinary iron. So are the bottles, only made of ordinary glass..” Ketupek answered with solemn face..

Then the angel disappear once again and this time back with Ketupek’s wagon and bottles.

“Is this yours???”

“Right, right, oh my angel. Thanks, thanks for helping and taking the wagon for me.”

The angel said “You are really honest, Ketupek. For that, as a reward for your honesty, I will give you all of those wagon and bottle..“

Ketupek was so happy “Thanks god..Thanks oh my kind hearted angel..” he yelled..

One month later, Ketupek go rafting (well, you know, he is rich now) with his wife at the same river. But unfortunately, a bad unavoidable thing happened, the rowboat flipped over and his wife drifted away.

“Huu..huuuu..my wife, where are you?” he sobbed.

And suddenly, the angel, the same one show up again. “What happen again to you, Hie Ketupek???”

“My wife drifts away and sink in the river, oh angel..”

“Ohhh, chill down.. I’ll help you take her back..” Plash, the angel disappeared and suddenly show up again taking Nafa Urbach with a rose tattoo on her belly.

“Is this your wife??” asked the angel..

“Right, You are so right my angel..She is my wife!!”

“Haaaaaaaiiiiiiiii!Ketupek!!!” the angel angrily shouted at ketupek.

“Since when have you dared to lie to me? Where’s your honesty now??”

Trembling and squatting, Ketupek said :

“Oh my angel, if I keep being honest, then you will disappear and show up again bringing Luna Maya, if I say no again, again you will disappear and show up bringing who knows whom? Then if it’s not my wife and I say no again, you will disappear too and show up bringing my real wife. Then..you will say that I’m so honest and give four of them to me.”

“To feed my only wife is a problem enough, oh my angel. Then with Nafa Urbach, Luna Maya and who knows whom, how am I gonna feed them all, Oh my angel? It’s too much” Ketupek explained.

Then the angel were dazed and nodded again and again, saying “You are right Ketupek, You are realistic.”
