DEVIL SNARES
Considerations
Gladys followed the words of Revelation to remain in his home. During that week, they sent prayers to the late Lina. The Aunties started to get frightened due to the many strange sounds inside Gladys parents room.
While Revelation at home asks for consideration Ningsih and Alex. They chatted together, Lisa and Light playing in the park.
"Look, Ma, Alex ... Before his mother Gladys died, he told me I had to look after Gladys because she had no one left. Ma .... How about I marry Gladys?" ask Revelation to the two before him seriously.
"Me-married? Thank God your son wants to get married. It'sit's okay. Good intentions are better implemented immediately" Ningsih replied happily.
"Ma .. wait a minute. If you marry that woman out of pity, Alex disagrees. Marriage is no joke. Brother, what's the reason you want to get married?" Alex immediately protested the actions of Revelation that were considered rash.
"Come ... Mama ... Alex...if I don't marry her, I'm so afraid something bad happened to her. Both of his parents died because of the effects of pesugian that his father had been doing," said Wahyu who then bowed. He remembered past events. Accept the fact that his mother had also done the pesugihan and subverted others. If it were not for the benevolent Mak Sri bringing Revelation to Kyai Ridwan's pesantren, perhaps the life of Revelation could have been lost.
"I don't think .. there's no harm in me marrying Gladys. He needs help too. I'm gonna save him. He also has the right to live happily without being bound by the mistakes his parents made," Wahyu said, staring at Ningsih and Alex.
The words were as if a dagger had struck Ningsih's heart. What he did and put the life of Revelation at risk. Ningsih felt that her eyes were hot and soon tears must have dripped. His hand immediately wiped the tip of his eye. "Alex .. If it's your brother's decision, we support it and pray for the best. Revelation, your heart is glorious, son. May you be a good priest to Gladys. Amen," answered Ningsih who could not help but cry.
Alex clasped his mother's shoulders. "Patience, Ma. Alright, Sis. Alex will support whatever you decide. Alex is sure it's best for Brother's future. Brother told Om Budi too?" ask Alex to confirm what Revelation has prepared.
"It has. Om Budi actually already knew since the completion of ruqyah Mamama Gladys and also heard his last message. Om Budi also advised to ask permission to Mama and tell Alex first. If you allow me, I'll start preparing everything well. About residence ...." Not yet finished the Revelation talk, Ningsih immediately cut off his words.
"Here you go, Revelation. You just bought a house for your sister. Better you and your wife will stay with Mama and Light, yes. Mama please ..." pinta Ningsih looked at her eldest son.
The Revelation took a deep breath, and replied, "Ma .. if for that, maybe the Revelation will consider again. Currently, Wahyu has prepared a house in complex C which is being built. So, if Mama wants to stay here, maybe until the house of Revelation so yes, Ma?"
"God, have you bought another house? Why didn't you tell Mama. Yes already, later Mama help buy the furniture of your house," said Ningsih who was a bit upset his son did not talk to him first.
"Sorry, Ma. But Revelation is grown. Mama doesn't have to worry. All Revelation has thought and Revelation savings are enough. Moreover, Revelation will have income every month," said Revelation to his mother.
The conversation lasted long enough. Revelation, Alex, and Ningsih talk a lot. Although in Ningsih's heart the pain was left because of his actions first. Still it is undeniable, if there is no gift, it means there is no Alex and Light. Ningsih can only be grateful for what God has given. Ningsih's memories only arrived in terms of invigoration. He can't remember the hell, the disturbing demons and everything related to hell.
After seven days of Gladys's mother's death, they moved into a rented house. Gladys could not bear to fire three aunts, a driver, and a security guard who had been serving his parents.
"Bi, sir, how about you guys stay with Gladys? Although Gladys could not promise how much salary Gladys could give. Moreover, all businesses and companies Papa bankrupt. This house will be sold for employee severance pay due to work termination. How about Aunt and Dad?" gladys asked expectantly.
"Sorry, Non. You just want to go back to the village" replied the driver.
"I'm sorry, too, Non. Aunty wants to go back to the village. Pity Non if it's Aunt's gig," said a housekeeper. Gladys looked sad no one wanted to be with him when it was difficult.
"I'm sorry, too, Non. Aunt told Auntie's son. They asked Aunt to go home."
"Bapak also apologized, could not come because there are other work from PT. You have told me the situation here. Sorry, Non," said Mr. Satpam very disappointing.
Only one aunt survived. "Non, don't be sad. Aunt will accompany Non. It's okay to start blazing. Aunt help me later." A glimmer of hope was seen when Bi Munah replied that he would come with Gladys.
The conversation was stopped and those who did not want to stay packed immediately. Bi Munah and Gladys also packed up. They will move to a rented house because the big house will be sold. Fortunately, Gladys has money savings.
"Bi Munah, thank you very much for accompanying Gladys," the girl softly hugged her domestic assistant.
"Together, Non. Spirit, yes. Although the Lord and Madam have returned to Rahmatullah, Non should not despair," said Bi Munah gave advice and encouragement to Gladys.
Gladys was grateful that there was still one employee who wanted to be with him. After everything was done and a lot of things that Gladys relented to be removed. Companies, houses, cars, all run out of bankruptcy and to pay the company's debts and severance employees. Gladys was actually very sad, but what could he do? He can only recite it all because it is the will of the Creator.
"Thank you, Bi. Only Auntie would want to be with Gladys even though she's broke."
Gladys did not continue his S2 studies for a while. He took a semester off. He was looking for a rented house near the highway so he could sell there. Start a new life because there are so many things to improve. Gladys began to think, so all this time all the ease was due to pesugihan. He was grateful to be alive, despite having to pioneer everything from scratch.
"Mr ... Mama .. May Allah forgive your sins. Pray for me to be a useful person and be a better woman than ever before" Gladys said as she cleaned her room and stared at the family photo.
