Father
: Calm down, honey. Come to think about it, how can we cure
our daughter?
Mother
: [no responses, cry louder]
Father
: Well...crying cannot solve the problem. Nyelip, Bepetak, Lupit!
[shout aloud]
Suddenly come three young ethnic members.
Bepetak
: Coming!
Nyelip

Then six of them went to the top of the hill to visit Tumenggung for begging a

Father
: Tumenggung...help us...our single daughter is very sick.
Tumenggung
: What? Oh...easy...easy...just lay her down, here. [point at a
place in front of him, then go inside, back with a stetoscope]
Let me examine her.
Father, mother, and the three of youngs were silent, very wonder of
Tumenggung.
Bepetak
: He is a doctor?
Nyelip
: Where did he graduate from?
Tumenggung
: [confused how to used the stetoscope] Well, ladies and
gentleman, she needs a special ceremony. Nyelip, Bepetak, Lupit,
ready the ceremony!
Bepetak
: Well, hes not a doctor.
Nyelip
:Yeah...doctor doesnt make a magic ceremony to cure his patient.
Ceremony was held, they dance primitively, the Tumenggung sais some magic
spells then splash the head of the daughter. The daughter was cured.
Father
: Thank you, thank you, Tumenggung.
Tumenggung
: [laughing] yeah, you must thank to me. But, thank you is
not enough. Bring me a big pig, okay?

Mother
: What? Big pig? We cannot find it in the market.
Tumenggung
: Who are you? S.A.D or not?
Mother
: of course Im an S.A.D.
Tumenggung
: So, just get pig in the jungle! I dont wanna know, anyway,
BIG PIG!
Father
: Im sorry, Tumenggung. Alright, a big pig.
On the way home,
Father
: Nyelip, Bepetak, Lupit, we must give Tumenggung a big pig. I trust
to you, okay?
Nyelip
: What? We?
Bepetak
: Why?
Father
: Because I love you...NOO! thats wrong, thats wrong [look at the
angry wife]. Because you have more energy than I, okay, okay?
Lupit
: Alright, sir.

Act 2
One day when hunting,
Bepetak
: [walk so furious among the woods and seriously look for a pig to
hunt]
Nyelip
: Ooooy...guys...wait for me... [dramatically] slow down, baby...
Bepetak
: What? Slow down? You eat pig or pig eat you, huh? [point at both
friends]
Lupit
: Calm down, guys. Dont fight now.
Nyelip
: What if we take a rest a few minutes? I wonder...isnt there any pig
down here? Or they have migration to the city?
Lupit
: Yeah...thats right, the pigs will be more modern than we.
Bepetak
: [dont care about what the friends are talking about, just look
around and suddenly find a pig over there] Hey, look, guys, pig!
Piggy...piggy...piggy!
Three of them ran to the dead pig, make a circle around it and then dance
again.
Bepetak
: Hey...this is dead, pig! [look at Nyelip]
Nyelip
: Dont look at me! Im so tired and better take this one than take
nothing today.
Lupit
: But...will Tumenggung like it? A dead pig?
Bepetak
: What do you expect? When we eat, we eat the dead one, right?
Nyelip
: Thats right. Lets take it!
After arrive at home,
Lupit
: Guys, what if we get something to drink before we go to
Tumenggungs house?
Bepetak
: Right! I want coffee.
Lupit
: And you, Nyelip?
Nyelip
: Just some pure water, please.
Bepetak
: Well...thats why your body is so flat, you only drink pure water.
Nyelip
: Is it a matter for you? Water is healthy, coffee is not.
Bepetak
: But coffee is heavier than water.
Nyelip
: How do you know?
Bepetak
: Lets see! Lets go to Tumenggungs house!

On the way to Tumenggungs house,

Bepetak
: Guys, what if we bet, which one is heavier, coffee or pure water?
Nyelip
: Thats not fair, water is not measured by its weight but by its
purity, like love, you know!
Bepetak
: Ho...you know about love too.
Lupit
: Guys...come on...
Bepetak
: So, you dont dare to bet with me, huh, coward?
Nyelip
: Okay if you want it!
Lupit
: Guys, can you stop that??

Act 3
Lupit
: Tumenggung? Tumenggung?
Tumenggung
: Yoohoo...hey, you, three tuyuls!
Nyelip
: And you The King of Tuyuls!
Tumenggung
: So...you bring the BIG PIG?
Nyelip
: Yeah, like you...
Lupit
: [beat Nyelips backhead] shut up!
Bepetak
: But, Tumenggung, you cannot take this one so easy. Theres
something more you have to do.
Tumenggung
: What? What??
Nyelip
: Yeah...if you know which one is heavier between coffee or pure
water, then you get your pig.
Tumenggung
: What? You challenge me? Are you sure? Of course I can do
your challenge! Here!
Bepetak and Nyelip is racing to give Tumenggung their drink. Then
Tumenggung take pure water in his right hand and coffee in his left hand.
Nyelip
: Are you sure it works?
Bepetak
: Nope, I think, its not the way to measure something.
Lupit
: Tumenggung, have you got it?
Tumenggung
: [think so hard, scratch his head]
Nyelip
: How?
Tumenggung
: Both drinks are the same, kids.
Bepetak
: No, it cannot be. Can you imagine, Tumenggung. This is water
[show a glass of water] and this is water WITH coffee [compare
with a glass of coffee]. Of course the heavier one is coffee, right?
Nyelip
: But, Tumenggung, coffee powder is just a very little in the water
[take a glass of coffee from Bepetak] and Im sure it doesnt effect
the weight of the water.
Bepetak
: Shes extremely wrong, Tumenggung. Even in a very little, we can
find that coffee is heavier than water!
Nyelip
: Oh, with what you measure it so you got an extra accuracy?
Bepetak
: I use OHauss scales in the Physics laboratory.
Tumenggung
: Oh, come on...you are smarter than me...
Nyelip
: Of course, Tumenggung, we study at SMA 1 Sarolangun.
Tumenggung
: What! So, you just wanna play me?
Lupit
: No, sir, Im sorry. Its just a little error. They are error, you know?
Tumenggung
: So you JUST wanna show how stupid I am??
Nyelip
: Yeah...exactly, sir.
Bepetak
: You cannot say which one is heavier, so, you cannot get your pig.
Sorry, sir.

Tumenggung
: WHAAAT??? Cursed you, tuyuls! [take the coffee and the
pure water then pour them together to different side]
Suddenly, at the area which was poured by coffee, there came a black stream,
and the area which was poured by pure water, there came a pure water
stream. Thats why the black stream named Air Hitam and the pure water
stream called Air Jernih.
-The End-
