Today there is a cuplak puser Bida.
Bida has just experienced navel cuplak on day 39, whereas usually the baby will belly button cup detelah 7 days can even be less than that. The atmosphere of Pak Joko's house is more crowded. His father and mother Bu Joko from Banyuwangi city came.
Father and Mother Bu Joko was indeed told after the cuplak so as not to be troublesome. Given that the Father and Mother are very old, also have customs habits that are rather complicated. If the Father and Mother of Joko bu were told when the mother Joko was born then they will come soon, then come again at the cuplakan event, and the event of tampanan (40 days of birth). As planned, the power, the end of his father and mother, Joko ma'am, can come at the cuplakan event, then tomorrow the selapanan event is also held.
His father and mother, Mr. Joko, are dead. The house occupied by Mr. Joko and his family is now the legacy of his parents.
Same with Bida, actually Pak Joko is not a pure only child but is the eldest child, but his mother Pak Joko miscarried twice so that Pak Joko became an only child.
The late parents of Mr. Joko are known to be very friendly but other cases with the grandmother and grandfather of Mr. Joko are known to be quiet. Pak Joko's grandfather was named Joyosono. He was someone who trusted his advice because it was known to be wise. But for some people, Pak Joko's grandfather was feared because he thought Mr. Joyosono was a shaman. For Mr. Joko himself, his grandfather did keep his own mystery because of his quiet attitude. His grandfather liked to stay alone in the front room without being disturbed.
"Rini, come here" said her mother Bu Joko as she stood on the terrace observing the towering and heavily flowering yangka trees.
"Yes mom." Bu Joko came to his mother on the porch.
"Look at that tree! why hasn't the tree been cut down? I don't like it, the tree is too tall and looks terrible. The fragrance of the flower was too sharp, making a terrible atmosphere at night." now Bu Joko's mother turned her gaze to her daughter.
Bu Joko smiled and took her mother to sit on a bench in the yard. Now they were sitting not far from the tree.
"Mom, try to feel the air here, ylang ylang plants that grow thick it produces refreshing oxygen. The aroma is also very fragrant, adding to the freshness of the haw." Bu Joko closed her eyes, breathing deeply in the air.
"You don't get scared when the fragrance spreads all over the house at night?" Joko's mother waited for her daughter's answer by wrinkling her forehead.
"No ma'am, not at all. I actually like the smell. Maybe you just don't get used to it." Bu Joko declared it with great earnestness.
His mother, Joko, sighed, his daughter was not the cowardly type.
While on the tree of yangka, without them knowing. There were a pair of eyes that did not stop staring fixedly at his mother Bu Joko.
"Mbak Rini, Bida cried. Looks thirsty." Suddenly Sulis appeared from inside the house. But soon enter the house again because you want to continue cooking. Ulis though somewhat irritating but very light hand helps cooking if there is any blasphemy. The cooking is good too. Since morning, Mrs Sulis has been helping at Bu Joko's house.
"Let's go in, ma'am." joko helped her mother stand up and took her to the house.
"Hmmm......"There was a groaning sound from the top of the tree. The sound of the groan surprised some birds who were perching on the leaves of the yangana to fly away.
"ooe ooe ooe..." Bida looked impatient and continued to cry.
"Mbak Rini, it's crybaby so it's given a name that doesn't fit anyway. The angel was besides beautiful, gentle and patient. That's Bida, thirsty is already crying kepiyer (hard cry) impatient. Change the name ! mumpung is a kid.". Fortunately Bida's crying was very loud and Mrs Sulis approached her in the room. If not for sure, Joko's mother has heard it and will be furious. Bu Joko's mother is patient but do not look for things with him. If angry, Bu Joko believes, Mrs Sulis who always wanted to be called mbak will soon run away from her mother's presence.
"Sst patient dear, Bida patient yes....." Bu Joko started tricking Bida. Bida was silent.
Ms. Sulis will step out of the room to continue cooking. But suddenly "Ow.." screamed Bu Sulis, his feet tripped something up to almost fall, fortunately did not hit the door frame.
"Bak Rini ndk papa?" asked Bu Joko while continuing to trick Bida.
"Ndak papa really." Mrs Sulis checked the floor where she had tripped. "Squeaky inward." He really felt that something was blocking his legs like someone was nailing him.
The middle-aged female figure stood beside Bu Sulis with a dislike look. His eyes were bright red. But no one saw it. He then got closer to Mrs Sulis and blew her nape.
"Hi iii "Mum Sulis shuddered as she felt her nape blowing. A cold chill ran down his neck to his arm. His body is getting creepy.
After the cuplak an event held after the issue was completed. It was eight o'clock at night. The invited gentlemen, some are still chatting in the living room. Mr. Joko was overwhelmed with happiness, as guests congratulated Bida on her birth.
Mrs Sulis who helped clean up in the kitchen. Password permit, "Mr Rini, I'm home yes, I brought some food yes, the show is over."
"Yes, Mrs Sulis, thank you for your help. Help again tomorrow. Precisely tomorrow, the invited guests will be more because tomorrow is a tasting event."
"I'll make a good cook tomorrow, and I'll bring more food home from now. I'm saying yes." Mrs Sulis exited the house through the back door because it would be closer to her house if through the back door. Sulis' house was even seen from Bu Joko's back door.
Mrs Sulis walked while carrying a crackle filled with food, she walked cheerfully. Actually, this morning and afternoon, Ms. Sulis had brought food for her family from Bu Joko's house but not as much as it was brought tonight.
The wind feels cold. Makes Mrs Sulis goosebumps. While walking on the grass in the yard next to Pak Joko's house, Mrs Sulis heard another step that was not the sound of her steps as if right behind her. Ms. Sulis stopped for a moment and looked back, but no one even Bu Joko had closed the back door of her house.
"Ah may be a rat." Inner Bu Sulis.
But when he began to step foot, again the voice was heard even the sound of the step now in front of him was not behind him anymore. Under the bright moonlight due to the full moon, it was clear that the grass movement was visible that someone was passing through.
Ms. Sulis started to get scared and accelerated her steps half-run towards her house.
