1000 Days
Chapter 19's

while Sri was preparing the supplies that he would bring, Sri saw Dini standing outside the door of the room, where he rested for a while before the next trip, whatever Dini did, made Sri finally approach him, and finally, I question if there is anything he wants to say

dini's face was not guessed at all, but, after feeling that she was holding back enough, Dini said in a trembling voice.

"siji takan kene, sing will urip sampe iki mari, Sri, sepurane son I will menggelakoni opo ae ben isok keep urip"

(one of us will survive until this is over, I'm sorry, I will do anything to survive)

early speech, making Sri confused, what he said, where he heard, after Sri questioned it, Dini pointed at the ear of the defect

he said in a more confident tone.

"sak durunge kupingku pedot, Dela mbisiki me, siji sing will selamet kanggo kembang klitih"

(before my ears break, Dela whispers something to me, one of us who will survive to share the flower sari from the rest of this Santet)

a black car that Sri knew just entered the residence Atomojo, Sugik stepped out, Sri and Dini also stepped in, after saying goodbye to the Mbah Krasa, Sugik also drove Sri and Dini, respectively, towards the place where Dela is now.

"i mourn the ambiguity of Sri, mbak Din" (i mourn Sri, mbak Din) said Sugik, he did not stop to look at Sri and Dini, who from the first they entered, there was no interaction between them, as if choosing to be quiet together, it was awkward

true to Sri's earlier assumption, the road they took was not the road to the pedestal, but the road leading out of the city, towards a village, because when the car entered into a gate, the road went out, the quiet atmosphere of the village life when night, immediately welcomed them.

even humans are here, as if this is a dead village.

the car went into an alley, with the same view, hard pebbles along the way, adding to the impression that this village must be a suburban village, far from everywhere, and when the car stopped, that was, that was, Sri saw it

Mbah Tamin is standing in a house, resembling the style of a cottage building with a widened roof, a house with teak wood being the main material pattern, sekana tell Sri this is the place he promised.

mbah Tamin stood, on the terrace of the house, next to him, there was Dela.

the thing that made Sri and Dini could not stop seeing it, they seemed to be horrified by the sight, Dela stood right beside Mbah Tamin, her smile, her smile, to be the opening of a speech that Sri never imagined.

Sugik stepped out, opened the car door, Sri and Dini, came out, although with doubtful steps, they approached Mbah Tamin and Dela, who had been staring at their arrival.

"Mbak Sri ya" said Dela, her voice was like another young girl,

"Maturnuwun purun nerima niki ngih mbak's work" (thanks for accepting this job)

Sri only welcomed Dela's hand, she could still see the ulcer, and her distended stomach, nothing changed from her physical appearance that made anyone unable to see her
