Me and Dewi ventured to go into Mami's room. Just asking for advice and opinions from him. We have felt deadlocked in finding a way out about the problem that the Goddess is facing. I didn't want to accompany her, but the others insisted because they thought I was very close to Mami. I think it's the same with them. Mommy never differentiates from each other here.
"Mommy's eating?" ask me so in.
Mami nodded. His body is a little bit thin now. His face also looked pale and his cheeks looked sunken. He tried to get up to sit when he saw us coming.
"If you're still limp, lie down, Mi!" I cried while helping him to sit down.
"Mommy's okay! Mommy's just a little dizzy if you sit too long."
"Mami should check with the doctor first! If the pain is chronic, how?"
"It's okay! Mami is okay," he said firmly. Not hard, but hard to look healthy.
"How was work last night? A lot?"
"Lumayan, Mi! As usual."
After making small talk first, finally what was our goal to come here was revealed as well. In fact, it just felt bad to say it. It seems that Mami's disease is rather severe as well, afraid of disturbing his mind and making him grow worse.
"How many months?" ask the Goddess.
"About three months, Mi!" the Goddess replied. I'm not afraid to be ashamed.
"Cualy, Mi! Say the Bucin. I don't know if he's worse." I connected the words of the Goddess.
Sttt....Mami attached her index finger to her lips. Coded me to be quiet.
"If it's still three months, it's still too young. It could be out tomorrow on its own as usual. Did you also make sure that you were actually pregnant?"
"Already, Mi! At the time of the health check yesterday, Buk Siska said I was pregnant. Lately I've been getting sick and vomiting a lot too. Dewi thought, it's just a common cold or a liquor side effect." Goddess explained.
"Yes, don't stress. Just wait a minute. Hopefully he'll come out."
"If you don't want to go out, how about Mi?" ask the goddess.
"If he doesn't want to go out, he deserves to live. So, take care and take care of him as well as possible until he grows up. After all, he is your own flesh and blood. You must take care of it," said Mami firmly.
The goddess covered her face with both palms. He really is a frustrated person.
"So, whose father?" he asked in a quiet voice, barely audible.
"What do you do yourself, how does it look like Mami." I answered with a cry, but in a slow tone so that he would not hear.
"Don't joke around like that, Ra! Don't keep blaming him. Right now he desperately needs the support of you as his closest friend. Don't bring up any mistakes that have already happened. After all, it had already passed and could not be repeated. So, just accept it with a chest and in the heart. Now our job is how to fix it so that it doesn't get worse." Mama seemed to think hard.
"Mommy said, Mami's okay, Ra! Mama is healthy. The mother should not be sick. My mom still needs a lot of people. Of course, my mom should always be healthy. Mami strong. You still need Mami, right?" He seemed to be encouraging himself. Convince her that she is okay. In fact, judging from his physical condition, it seems clear that he is not in a good state.
It is difficult to advise this old man. Very stubborn.

The work hours were just over, so tired it felt like my body and mind this morning. In addition to having to think about the state of the Goddess who is in trouble, I also think about the condition of Mami who has not recovered. Good thing last night got a rather clumsy guest. The guy rame really, especially in a drunk state. He won't shut up. He kept talking all night. All the things he talked about. From national issues to international issues he knows. I don't know if that's not what he said.
But, there was a topic that caught my attention. That is, he discussed about the mafia problem that is not far from the black world. Moreover, the mafia he discussed was covering the ruler in the ocean. Not Jack Sparrow or Captain Davy Jones as I often watch on television. The Mafia TRIAD operates in the southern China Sea.
"TRIAD is the name of the homeland band, Om! Time in the middle of the sea?" ask me innocently.
"Not that TRIAD, Bestie. This is another TRIAD. If the onoh TRIAD has disbanded. The leader is repentant now. I'm not a thug anymore. It's possible, he's probably," he explained. I smiled as I closed my mouth, feeling ashamed of having guessed wrong. But, kok must use all satirical events. He is one of my favorite artists.
"So, which TRIAD, dong?"
"TRIAD is a mafia organization from mainland China. Now they've spread everywhere. Almost all over the country, there are parts of them, although not necessarily directly related."
I just listened to the story of the big man with reverence. He seems to know a lot about it. I just found out this time that there is a TRIAD name in addition to the name of the homeland band.
"Keep, what are their jobs? Is the pirate also there?" my question is getting curious.
Suddenly I thought the same Bang Johar who every day passing buana in the middle of the ocean there. Why he never told me that the job turned out to have a big and dangerous risk as well. What if their ship was plowed and drowned by the pirates?
I feel scared myself.
"If it was old times, yes! But, if the present times are rare. There is almost no more. Because they are afraid of being caught with the country adjacent to where they operate. If they are found out, they will be hurt. They will be surrounded there and not allowed to dock to land."
"So, no harm to dong, Om?"
"If the problem is dangerous, it is still dangerous. You see, they are now more focused on carrying out a planned act of sabotage in order to reap profits. For example, they always make illegal transactions in the middle of the sea. Of course, the act harms the country because it avoids the cost of taxes and customs. Even worse, they also do drug transactions, smuggling illegal goods and doing human buying and selling transactions. Usually, they also do everything that violates the laws of a region, such as providing a gambling establishment and a place of illegal prostitution."
Hearing that, I felt a little offended. Am I not a part of that too? And isn't he part of it too. Does he not realize that he is in that place and enjoying it? Not aware, right? This guy before you talk?
Oh, yeah, I forgot she was mabok.
I patted my own teardrop.
