"Eh ... Jeng Miranda has arrived, Kirain will not come." One of Miranda's socialite gang friends, Endang, has just arrived at a regular restaurant where they hang out together. Wearing a brown kebaya combined with matching color floral motif jarit, the appearance of the middle-aged woman looks glamorous. Jewelry attached to the body, gold-studded watches and famous brand handbags make anyone who sees envy made.
"It's impossible not to come. Lah wong wants to eat well when he is not present let alone know for free must be done must ride ojek online. Isn't that right, Mothers?" said Tuti, a former neighbor of Miranda when he was still living in Citra Nirwana Housing.
"That's right! Gini day, who doesn't want to be free. I also want if often free of Jeng Atikah." In an instant the restaurant where they gathered became crowded due to the booze of Bu Dini. All of Miranda's eight-member socialite gang friends laughed out loud at the remark. Their stomachs were tingling as if something was tickling their stomachs.
Meanwhile, Miranda could only put on a sullen face feeling furious over the attitude of her friends. It squeezes the palm of the hand to unravel the anger within. Damn, why are they making fun of me anyway! Do they think the bad luck that happened to me is worth laughing at? Cih, you Dajal friend! There are people in trouble who are even scorned.
Miranda did not realize that she had done the same thing to Ms. Cokro whose husband was none other than one of Jonathan's former business partners went bankrupt causing all wealth assets to be sold to pay off debt in the bank. Living with treasures, accustomed to living hedon make them forget themselves and made of worldly things.
Atikah came closer with a menu book followed by a maid in black uniform behind her. "It's ... already, no need to discuss anymore." The middle-aged woman tried to act smart in front of everyone so that they would be impressed by her kindness. Though in the heart has a rotten plan to bring down Miranda mentally. Aah ... really bad.
"I invite you all to come here to tell me that soon my youngest son is married to the daughter of the owner of the largest coal mine in Kalimantan. The wedding reception will be held in two weeks. Well, while there's still time, I'd like to share an invitation letter with all of you. Don't forget to come, yes!" Atikah took out seven rolls of white invitation letters combined with golden yellow, the middle of which was tied with hemp rope from inside the tote bag and gave one by one to his friends.
Everyone's eyes were perfectly rounded at the sight of the invitation letter. How not, the invitation letter looks luxurious and classy.
"Aduh, his son Jeng Atikah is really great to be able to match with the child of the Coal Fighter. Surely his life will be happy because he is not afraid of his property running out. In short, the Coal Fighter, Bo, the wealth will not run out of seven derivatives." Bu Endang looked so amazed when he saw each line of sentences in the invitation letter as if printed using gold ink.
"Yes, that's great. Jeng Atikah his life has always been lucky. Starting from the first child to the third, meet the soul mate of people are continuing. So envious for a long time." Bu Tuti chimed in. Compared to the others, Atikah's life seemed to have never been flawed in the least. Her husband loves Atikah very much, the three children are foreign graduates and are paired with wealthy descendants.
Atikah smiled proudly at the compliments made by her friends. This is the main purpose of inviting them, wanting to show luck in front of everyone. When else can show off wealth and be praised in such a way if not now. Although there will be a lot of money spent for treating socialite gang friends, it is okay as long as the main goal is realized, he is willing.
"Aah .. You can. All of this is nothing compared to Jeng Miranda. This friend of ours was born of noble descent, her husband was genuine, handsome and also rich. You should be jealous of Jeng Miranda, not me. I'm all right, just a grain of dust that if blown flying and no where to stop." Atikah deliberately humbled to get the sympathy of his friends.
"Yes, right. Jeng Atikah and Jeng Miranda are like heaven and earth, not to be confused. A poor man like him will forever be a loser!" continued Bu Tuti deliberately emphasized every sentence spoken by him.
I have Miranda's patience. He could no longer endure the flames that continued to burn all over his body.
"So, your words!" spray Miranda while pounding the table. Don't you have any other topic than talking about my personal life, huh? As I fell poor, you insulted me. You think I'll just shut up, don't you? No. .. no. I'm not a weak woman who would just sit idly by when insulted by you!" The woman's index finger lifted into the air and then she shook it.
Atikah smiled mockingly and sneered, "Kok Jeng Miranda was angry when Bu Endang and Bu Tuti expressed their opinions. Isn't that all in accordance with reality, if the only son of wayang Jeng Miranda has tarnished the good name of the family by marrying a poor woman and a village like your former daughter-in-law, Tania. If according to the facts, Jeng Miranda should be quiet, do not even get angry with these two friends of ours." The woman's hand was clutching the shoulders of Bu Tuti and Bu Endang almost simultaneously.
"It even seems like Jeng Miranda's son is throwing dirt again at Vincent Pramono's family" Atikah continued, which made everyone look curiously at the woman.
"Throwing shit how, Jeng Atikah?" ask Bu Afi who is only a spectator. However, for this time he was unmoved because his level of recklessness had been at the threshold of the highest level.
Atikah swept a glance around, looking closely at the faces of the seven social gang friends and then her eyes stopped right in front of Miranda. "I mean throwing dirt because it looks like Jeng Miranda will beat Tania again for the second time. The day after yesterday I saw them being friendly in the hospital, bribes like ABG children. If so, isn't it a sign that they're going to refer back? And that means ... Jeng Miranda will have a daughter-in-law of the poor again dong same as before. It's been a tough life, having a poor daughter-in-law is suffering more and more and more of her life."
Unable to resist anymore, everyone at the table let out a laugh. The five people laughed out loud while Atikah only smiled smirk when she realized Miranda's face was flushed red as if she was holding back anger.
Miranda's chest was deflated, her jaw protruding outward with white books clearly visible on the woman's fingernails. This news is able to make a time bomb in Miranda exploded suddenly.
