Temurun Necklace

Two days have been about Nyai Kartika speech ringing in Ajimukti's mind and a little teasing him in every time his solitude. Even with today. Since this afternoon, the thoughts and curiosity about Nyai Kartika's words again disturbed him. That was because at noon last Dullah also Sobri had returned to Pondok Hidayah.

"Something seems to be thinking, Mas?" Ask Dullah while taking a seat not far from where Ajimukti sat.

"Oh, sampeyan, Lek. Yes, this is, Lek. Actually it's about Sibu's speech on the phone two days ago." Sahut Ajimukti later.

"Mr Yu's Speech, Mas? I'm sorry to know what that is about, Mom?" Asked Dullah who immediately looked curious.

"So yesterday on the phone, Sibu again mentioned about Bu Lek Mulatsih, Lek. And Sibu said he said Sibu and then there was a new lead. Well, I'm curious about that, Lek." Say Ajimukti later.

Dullah laughed a little after hearing the words of Ajimukti.

"Oh, about that tho, Mas. What do I think about?" Sahut Dullah afterwards.

"Yes, Lek. I'm honestly very curious. I can't wait to ask you this as well. That's why I waited until the break came first, just wanted to ask this." Say Ajimukti later.

Dullah seemed to nod his head.

"Yes, Mas. There is a new clue. Just put the possibility. It also arose from the mind of Mbak Yu and I at that time." Sahut Dullah later.

"What's the clue, Lek?" Ask Ajimukti hunt.

"Change Sukro, Mas." Sahut Dullah later.

Ajimukti slightly frowned, curiosity clearly visible on his face.

"Why could that lead be Mbah Sukrono, Lek?" Ask later.

Dullah slightly smiled, "That's because of the necklace that was wearing, Mas."

Hearing that Ajimukti was a little surprised, then took out a necklace from behind his collar.

"This canyon, Lek? Indeed this necklace I got from Mbah Sukro at that time and it turns out this necklace is a gift from the father." Say Ajimukti while looking at the necklace on his neck.

"Then what does this necklace also have to do with Mbah Sukro with instructions about Bu Lek Mulatsih, Lek?" Ask later.

"I also know from his mother, Mas. Then try to relate it as a possibility as I said earlier." Sahut Dullah afterwards.

"So, Mas. The necklace is actually descended from the Sambehan great-grandfather, Sewba Kyai Muthoriq. Then from Buyut to Kyai Muthoriq, he gave the necklace to the Grandpa sampeyan, Kyai Idris. Because Grandpa sampeyan is the only child from Buyut untilyan. Well, from Grandpa to Sampeyan then down again to his son. As we know, my. Sumpah Kyai Idris has two wives, and from both of them each have one child, Kang Salim also Bu Lek Mulatsih. Sibuya said, Mas. Which is a clue, actually the band, Mas. The pendulum in the sampeyan was at first glance similar to the flower buds, Mas. But it's actually a miniature dagger. While there is the same Miss Lek Mulatsih. It was also said Madam Yu according to what she got from Kang Salim, Mas." Dullah's story is long.

Ajimukti seemed to understand.

"Then, what does all this have to do with Mbah Sukro, Lek? I'm honestly still confused." Say Ajimukti later.

"Look, Mas. I suspect Kang Salim already had a premonition that in the end he would meet Mbah Sukro. That's the reason why the necklace he gave to Mbah Sukro, precisely titipkan. Meanwhile, the necklace, even though it was just an ordinary necklace, but it was a precious object. Of course, there is a special reason why Kang Salim entrusted it to Mbah Sukro, Mas. Besides, as we know, too, Mommy. Between Mbah Sukro and Mbah Zaini, they were good friends. Meanwhile, Mbah Zaini's relationship with Mbah Idris is also how, we all know, he is both like a brother and sister. So, I draw conclusions, maybe between Mbah Sukro and Mbah Idris there is a relationship. And if my guess is correct, ma'am. It could be that Mbah Sukro knows how Mbah Idris' life used to be, about Mbah Idris and of course about Mbak Yu Mulatsih." Dullah explained.

Ajimukti once again nodded in understanding.

"Yes, Lek. From the conclusion of my sampeyan also finally sarujuk and think the same with sampeyan." Ajimukti.

"When are we going to ask this question as Mbah Sukro, Lek?" Ask later.

"Emmm, I happened to be here not for long either, Mas. How about tomorrow?" Sahut Dullah later.

"Alright, Lek. Faster is better." Sahut Ajimukti who now expression his face already looks unsettled.

Meanwhile at the place where Sukrono was at the moment.

"What is your father doing? I noticed you seem to be thinking something." Tegur Mursini, his son, when he saw him contemplating in his backyard.

"Several night you dream of coming to Mas Gus Salim, Nduk." Sahut Sukrono.

"Kang Salim, sir?" Mursini asked a little there was a surprised expression.

"Nonsense? What's that feeling, sir?" Ask Mursini later.

"There's going to be something going on. But I don't know what it is, I hope it's not a bad feeling. Hopefully it will be like that time, Nduk. Before he met Mas Aji his son Mas Gus Salim. Mas Gus Salim also had time to come in the dream father, Nduk." Sukrono said with a sigh.

Mursini noticed Sukrono's shady face, "May it be a good sign, sir."

Sukrono just nodded.

"I remember Kang Kyai Idris, Nduk. I used to ask for mercy. Rattled smiles. Until Kang Zaini I have to bother every time I run out of a fight. After that Kang Zaini introduced me to the young Kang Kyai Idris, I was the one who was jittery at that time in prenahke, I was taught the same martial arts as Kang Kyai Idris. I who have a hobby of fighting was obviously very happy at that time. But who would have thought Kang Kyai Idris was Kyai alim. I used to call Kang Kyai Idris the anchor." Sukrono said as he chuckled revealing his toothless tooth.

"And who would have thought that when I was young I was not interested in the science of religion in my old age, I had to study with his son my childhood friend. If you remember that I sometimes want to laugh because so shy, Nduk." Sukrono continued his words.

Mursini could only listen to all Sukrono's stories even though he had heard the story repeated several times.

"Arya these few days has rarely visited here, sir." Mursini said after a while the two fell silent.

"Yes, Nduk. Usually, the child likes Jedal. Tumben is now rarely seen." Sahut Sukrono.

"Have you also rarely met your Mother Yu, Nduk?" Ask Sukrono then.

"Emmm, last met yes at that time Ma'am Sih nitip jadah for the father." Mursini later.

Sukrono laughed, "Your sister is funny. Know that you are toothless. Wes ra tedas manganese. Nitip is a fucking crap."

"Yes, maybe Ma'am Sih thinks you still like to fuck." Mursini.

"Yes, he used to be that father if you look at the junk, see the intent, Nduk. Suenenge. But now let's not eat one iris, nyokot a little bit of his teeth father is not strong really." Sukrono said as he chuckled.

"Oh, yes, sir. When you met Mas Aji, did you ask about Mbak Sih? Because as far as I know since the symbol Mbak Sih died, between Mbak Sih and Kang Salim have never met again." Mursini later said.

Sukrono nodded, "You're right, Nduk. Father forgetfulness. Wow, wes tuwo tenan mr. iki. Until senile father." Sukrono Sahut.

"When the last time Arya came here, I had mentioned about Mas Aji. E, I forgot to say that Mas Aji is Kakange Arya yo, Nduk." Sukrono continued later.

"But Arya does she know, too, sir?" Ask Mursini later.

"Well, you baby, Nduk. Try it later if you meet Arya or Mas Aji you ask that, Nduk." Sahut Sukrono.

"What do you dream about Mas Gus Salim's infatuation related to this huh, Nduk? You see, in the dream, Mas Gus Salim asked about the stigi necklace that Mas Gus Salim had entrusted to the father, Nduk." Sukrono said later.

"Didn't that necklace you gave it to Mas Aji?" Ask Mursini later.

"Yes, Nduk. Like Mas Gus Salim's message back then. That's amazing Mas Gus Salim, Nduk. His work that even his own father did not think. How Mas Gus Salim put the necklace on the same father and said one day someone will take it. As if at that time Mas Gus Salim already knew that in the end the father will be reunited with Mas Aji." Sukrono said later.

"If you think it's not there, sir."

Sukrono nodded his head, "When Mas Gus Salim left it, Mas Gus Salim said that it was the only thing left by his grandfather, Kyai Muthoriq. The necklace was actually a pair, Nduk. After the necklace reached Kang Kyai Idris' hands. By Kang Kyai Idris, the necklace was split in half. Which is like a flower bud for Mas Gus Salim which is now used Mas Aji, while the sleeve he gave the same Madam Mu Mulatsih and now in use Arya, Nduk." Sukrono said later.

"Ah, yasudah, Nduk. I want to put the chicken first." Sukrono said as he moved from his seat.

"Babone's raring again, sir?" Ask Mursini later.

"Yes, Nduk. But the other baboon is creeping. It'll be a little crunchy." Sahut Sukrono while turning his back joints.

"Soalya Mbak Sih will order if babone ngarak, Mbak Sih asked for a pair." Mursini later said.

"Yes, later if you can eat by yourself you deliver there or tell Arya to take it, Nduk."

After saying that, Sukrono immediately turned to his chicken coop cage. His busyness in Sukrono's old age, in addition to collecting ancestral antiques, he also likes to keep Javanese chickens as well as several pairs of knee birds.
