A Series of Dreams
Tragedy in Pelaminan

“Mr? Mother?”

Seruni jumped down from Wisely's luxury car without further ado, provoking the wonder of the handsome man behind the wheel. He had to make sure himself that his eyesight was not wrong in the midst of the dim night and the frenzy of the invited guests.

“Ni, where are you going?” Wisely gawking. His gaze continued to follow the movements of Seruni who broke through the crowd. The sound of music mixed with the sound of people who were singing made tanya drown. “What's up, yes?” tanyakanya. A locked look at the young woman who was meeting an old couple on the sidelines of the party crowd.

Just to guess the story in plain sight, Wisely who had not had time to turn off the car engine was made surprised by the presence of Seruni who had returned with both parents. The old couple looked messy and wet. The body shivered, the face was tangled.

“What's up, Ni?” Wisely looked back as Seruni opened the passenger door.

“Log in, Sir, Mom. Why get soaked like this?” tanya Seruni, did not discuss the question Wisely intended for him. He sassy let both parents hitch a ride in the luxury car of the future husband.

“Ni, this is why it got soaked?” tanyanya, curious.

“I don't know either, Aa.” Seruni answered while helping the still-achieving Lasmi sit down. Then, the girl closed the car door and moved to the front seat.

“What's wrong? Where is Anga? Until it got soaked, what happened?” ask Wisely, still curious.

Sitting sweet while putting a seat belt on the body, both shoulders Seruni up and down a sign of not understanding. After making sure that the safety rope ran neatly across his chest, he looked back.

“Pak, why get soaked like this?”

“That, the security collapsed. Up to the tents fall. Where else is heavy rain.” Sandi told me while folding her hands on the chest to ward off the cold that had torn to the bone.

“How can it?” Seruni glanced at Wisely who was frowning. Clearly the man was harboring the same curiosity.

“So suddenly heavy rain, along with lightning and lightning. Where in the hours guests arrive. So, everyone is scrambling to find shelter.” Sandy explained.

“How can it?” Seruni asked the same question over and over again. The brain of the beautiful girl has not been able to accept the calamity that befell her parents.

“Bisale. The proof is this ...” Lasmi shows off her mud-traced shoes and lives next door. “Mana .. I owe you a stall mom. It doesn't feel fair. I still have to pay the installments, while the shoes are gone next door.”

“Yes God, Mom. Why owe it? Anyway, old shoes ‘kan still there?” Sandi shakes.

“Mana. It had already peeled off his skin, like a man scabies.” Lasmi's mother scowled.

“Already.” Seruni is not feeling well. When confined in a car, her parents debate a free spectacle for Wisely. Honestly, she was embarrassed when the future husband saw how poor they got for a shoe to owe here and there. “We're home. Later just continue at home.”

“Anga too!” Lasmi is still grumbling. “At the time when we were hit by a guarantee tent, he even laughed out loud. The princess did not know herself. Not helping, but laughing. She was busy getting into her in-laws' house, not caring about us.”

Seruni biting lips. Glancing at the stunned Wisely, the girl boasted a bashful smile. It felt like hiding from the world as the handsome man skinned some of his sad story.

“Aa, we walk now.” Not wanting to linger, she was really unwell.

The night finished its task, the morning crawled in. The dark slowly changed light, the cock crows welcomed the new day. In the simple living room of the residence Kang Sandi looks Wisely sitting while sipping coffee made Seruni accompanied by a plate of fried bananas.

“Ni, for our wedding .. should be prepared in Jakarta.” Wisely opened her voice. What he heard last night made him worry and think hard. “There is still enough time to prepare everything. End of this month .. I'll pick you up, we're going to Jakarta.”

Seruni gaped, unable to speak.
