"One week after Jelita I found and stayed here, Jelita was always crying. Yeah, I don't want to eat. Even if only one bribe two bribes. I tried to persuade him. Until in the end I was forced to lie to your son mistress. I said if you want to eat it will heal faster and will be quick to go home to your home in the city" Mbok Darmi told Miana.
"after that? " Miana was still curious about what happened to her daughter.
"After that, Jelita just wanted to eat and not cry all day. Makes me relieved and able to live life as normal as ever" explained Mbok Darmi was able to make miana re-moved. Without waiting for long, Miana hugged Mbok Darmi. The gratitude in his heart could not be expressed by proverbs or by words. Miana is very grateful to Mbok Darmi for taking care of Jelita for more than 3 months.
" Mbok Darmi is a very good man. Mbok Darmi always gives what Jelita asks if he can" Jelita told Miana in front of everyone.
" Mama, if Mbok Darmi can come with us. Kasian if Mbok Darmi is here alone. There is no one here except the two of us. If Jelita goes back to the city, it means Mbok Darmi will be alone again. May ma Mbok Darmi we take him home" Jelita pleaded with his mother to take mbok Darmi away from this remote place. Because Jelita felt how difficult it was to live in the middle of the forest without anyone. Even Mbok Darmi's neighbors don't have any. Only the livestock he had in this forest. That is also if you are not being eaten by wild animals such as wolves, snakes and others.
" It's a pity my mom will not invite Mbok Darmi to stay in our house. Pity her if she has to live alone here" Miana nuruti what she wants. Because when he looked around the house, there were only trees. There was no television there. But for lighting, Mbok Darmi uses a Solar-powered electricity.
" Jelita, don't ask your Mama like that. Mbok Darmi is delighted to be staying at this place. And lady miana, Thank you for your availability to accommodate Me in the house you live with the beautiful. To be honest, I can't leave this house. This house is full of memories with my late husband. I promise to remain faithful until death brings us back together" Mbok Darmi who heard Jelita's request this time said that he could not leave the house that had been in his place for many years.
" Mbok Darmi, where we are there are many places to live. Mbok better live with us than to live in the middle of the forest without anyone here. Mbok Darmi is getting old. If there's anything, we can help. We do not wish for what is not. But for the sake of convenience Mbok Darmi himself. Mbok Darmi has to live a normal life like everyone else" Miana explained to the woman, who is over 45.
" But in this house so many stories and memories about my husband's mistress. How can I leave everything" looks sadness on the look of old face Mbok Darmi who already looks there is a wrinkle. Once again, Miana hugged Mbok Darmi without cue.
" I promise I'll make you the same house as this. Mbok Darmi can stay alone according to your wishes. Mbok Darmi can bring everything here. I'll take care of everything. Mbok Darmi should live a decent life not like this" while hugging Miana said that to Mbok Darmi with tears that kept dripping.
" But there's another reason why I don't want to leave here, Miana" Mbok Darmi wants to be frank about why he doesn't want to leave here.
" What is it, if you can please tell me." Miana let go of Mbok Darmi's embrace and asked.
" I actually live in this forest because I want to be completely detached from parents and in-laws who do not approve of my marriage to my deceased husband. So we decided to live in a secluded place like this, which even to this day I have never contacted my parents or in-laws." Mbok Darmi told Miana a reason that made him want to stay at the house.
" Is there no longing in Mbok Darmi's heart to leave all the family behind? " suddenly Bagas asked Mbok Darmi who was wiping his tears while telling his story.
" The longing is always there. Even now I still miss them. But I thought, if this miss doesn't have to end." Mbok Darmi said to Bagas. Makes everyone who is there feel very sorry for the fate of Mbok Darmi.
" Trying to connect the relationship back there is no harm Mbok Darmi. Even that will lead us to good." Parlan continued his words.Mbok Darmi again wiped the tears that continued to flow on his cheeks.
" What should I do, sir? " it seems like Mbok Darmi's heart has changed. His mind is no longer as dull as it was a few minutes ago. He asked Parlan what he should do.
" Connecting between families" Parlan's answer made Mbok Darmi immediately nodded.
" That means we can leave this house today. We move to the city" Miana smiled, both hands holding the hand of Mbok Darmi who already looked wrinkled.
"Thank you for everything" Mbok Darmi said as he sobbed.everybody was moved to look at this incident.
" All of you please bring all Mbok Darmi's belongings. We will bring Mbok Darmi at this time also back to the city" Bagas is so enthusiastic.fear if Mbok Darmi will change his mind again. Mbok Darmi never thought that his life would change after meeting Jelita. There was a heavy feeling about leaving the house, but he thought, what the people said was very true.
more than 20 people helped carry Mbok Darmi's belongings. Mbok Darmi was moved by the presence of miana and her entourage. Before leaving the place full of memories, Mbok Darmi once again stared at the house that had been in his place for many years.
" May I go back for a while. Some of the livestock I have to let go so that they can live in the wild.if left cooped up, they will die of starvation" Mbok Darmi opened the door of his house wide. let the livestock he had been caring for enter the house.
" Bye Memories. Goodbye all the beautiful stories" muttered Mbok Darmi quietly on his doorstep. He walked closer to Miana and the others.
Someone led Mbok Darmi to ride the ATV. Mbok Darmi, Miana, Dara, Jelita, Parlan, and Bagas are in the front row. They start turning on the ATV and walk towards the place where their helicopter is.
" Mbok Darmi with Jelita going up there." Bagas pointed to a helicopter that was at the very edge.
" Good Om Bagas. Mbok Darmi Let's go there" Jelita enthusiastically pulled Mbok Darmi's arm and took him to the end of the helicopter. Miana patiently led Jelita whose leg was still sore to walk. While Mbok Darmi was really nervous, the article after several years of living in the forest, just this time he will ride an air vehicle.
All passengers boarded the helicopter. One by one the helicopters took off. I was lucky because the weather was not raining. So that there is no muddy land in the forest. They fly to the town where Miana's family lives.
