The White Butterfly
An old man named Takahama lived in a little
house behind the cemetery of the temple of Sozanji. He was extremely friendly
and generally liked by his neighbours, though most of them considered him a
little mad. That was because he was very old but he did not want to get
married. He did not have the desire for intimate relationship with women.
One summer day he became very ill, so ill,
in fact, that he sent for his sister-in-law and her son. They both came and did
all they could to bring comfort during his last hours. While Takahama fell
asleep, they watched a large white butterfly flew into the room and rested on
the old man’s pillow. The young man tried to drive it away with a fan; but it
came back three times, as if it was very loath to leave the sufferer.
At last Takahama’s nephew chased it out
into the garden, through the gate, and into the cemetery beyond, where it
lingered over a woman’s tomb, and then mysteriously disappeared. On examining
the tomb the young man found the name “Akiko” written upon it, together with a
description narrating how Akiko died when she was eighteen. Though the tomb was
covered with moss and must have been erected fifty years previously, the boy
saw that it was surrounded with flowers, and that the little water tank had
been recently filled.
When the young man returned to the house he
found that Takahama had passed away, and he returned to his mother and told her
what he had seen in the cemetery.
“Akiko?” murmured his mother. “When your
uncle was young he was betrothed to Akiko. She died shortly before her wedding
day. When Akiko left this world your uncle resolved never to marry, and to live
ever near her grave. For all these years he has remained faithful to his vow,
and kept in his heart all the sweet memories of his one and only love. Every
day Takahama went to the cemetery, whether the air was fragrant with summer
breeze or thick with falling snow. Every day he went to her grave and prayed
for her happiness, swept the tomb and set flowers there. When Takahama was
dying, and he could no longer perform his loving task, Akiko came for him. That
white butterfly was her sweet and loving soul.”

My Very Best Friends
I believe that a friend is an angel who
lifts us off our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly. It
means that our friends are people who will always be there for us any time we
need them.
I’m so lucky because I have three best
friends. They are Firsty, Ronald and Jonathan. We have known each other since
we were four years old. We met in the kindergarten. Since then, we always go to
the same school. Moreover, our houses are still in the same block. We do
everything together. Our motto is “United we stand, divided we fall”. It means
“together we are stronger”. Now, let me introduce my friends one by one.
Firsty is the youngest among us because she
was born in December. We call her “The Sweety Firsty”. Her father is French.
She is tall and slim. She’s about 171 cm. She has long straight hair. Actually
the color of her hair is blonde. However, she dyed her hair black since last
year. She has beautiful blue eyes, an oval face and pointed nose. “The Sweety
Firsty” is a cheerful, confident, and determined girl. However, she is a little
bit careless and stubborn. She has many cats in her house. There are about nine
cats. She loves them all. One of her favourite is a little orange cat. She
calls her ‘Shinny’. Firsty loves to dance and sing. Nevertheless, she wants to
be a model.
Ronald’s nickname is Ron. Most of girls in
our school love and adore him. There’s no doubt about his good looking. We call
him “The Charming Ron”. His height is 176 cm. Ron has straight hair and perfect
face. He is an intelligent and introvert person. Above all, he is humble. He
was crowned as The Best Student this year. He won so many prizes on Math,
Chemistry and Physic competition. However, his favourite subject is Chemistry.
He wants to be a chemist someday.
Jonathan is a funny person. He can always
find a way to make the people around him laugh. I wonder what it is in his head
for he can create jokes spontaneously. Jonathan’s nick name is Jo. He is plump.
He’s about 168 cm tall. His weight is 80 kg. That’s why we call him “The Big
Jo”. He has a round face with brown eyes. His spiky hairstyle makes him easily
recognized. Jo is a humorous, friendly and an easy going person. He is a movie
freak. He would never miss any new movie in the cinema. He dreams of becoming a
famous actor one day.
About me? Well, my name is Hana. I’m the
shortest one among them. I’m about 160 cm tall. I have long wavy hair with
round face. My friends call me “The Chubby Hana” because I also have a chubby
check. Most people, even my parents say that I’m a careful, generous and
diligent person. They also say that I’m a bit sensitive. I love painting. I
spend much time in my small studio just painting.
That’s all about me and friends of mine.
Even though we are quite different, we love each other and will keep this
relationship for good.

Inul aims to drill after haj
JAKARTA: Dangdut singer Inul Daratista says
she will not stop performing her raunchy hip-gyrating dance, “the drill” after
recently completing a spiritual pilgrimage to Mecca.
“Uztad (cleric) advised me to run my
business as usual after the haj. He only told me to stop if I was too tired.
How am I supposed to feed my family if I don’t sing and dance?” said the singer
whose dancing was once the source of a major controversy here.
Inul said she wouldn’t be changing her
typically-tight stage outfits like many other actresses and female singers who
start wearing headscarves after coming back from the haj.
“ ….. (the costume) depends on the songs:
If I was ordered to sing qasyidah (Arabic songs). I’d have to adjust. “Inul
said quoted by Detikcom.
Inul who travelled to Mecca with her husband, Adam Suseno, said
they had been impressed by the beauty of the city and were planning to make a
return trip within the next four months.
“Next year, four months
from now, we’ll take the umroh (minor haj program), “ she said.
