Indigo Girl Match
Where's Wowo

Mr. Joko still closed his eyes beside his wife who had been slumbering since. But Mr. Joko's mind is still everywhere. Bida's grim face when Levi left him made Mr. Joko's heart as if it was very painful.

Tomorrow morning I will take my cows at Mr. Ridwan's house. The cows are not mine anymore but Levi's. I have to take care of him.

Not long after, Mr. Joko fell asleep entering his dreamland.

Mr. Joko was in a vast green meadow. He sat with Bida on a large rock. Not far from them, two cows grazed.

"The grass is green and fresh, the cows seem to enjoy it very much." Bida directed her gaze towards the grazing cow. Her hair was braided backwards, a few strands of hair were detached from her braids, fluttering in the wind.

Pak Joko observed Bida's fresh radiant face. Bida's view cannot be separated from the cows. It was as if Bida thought the big cows were like cute little bunnies.

A smile occasionally decorated his face.

" Bida. When you were born, we only had 3 cows and then the cow gave birth." Joko sir told me the cow.

"Try if you don't sell our cows, then let it go on, surely our cows are many." Bida turned her head while pursing her lips.

"Father is only able to take care of a maximum.4 cows. Does Bida want to help you take care of cows?" Mr. Joko teases his smiling daughter looking at her cows grazing.

What makes Bida smile like that? What's the funny thing about that big horned cow? Mr. Joko tried to pay attention to the cows but did not find anything special in the cows other than the big fat body sign the price will be high so it will be quite worth adding to the lack of rehap costs the house to Levi that Mr. Joko does not know for sure nominally.

"Can. Bida is ready to help take care of the cows. All those cows we let the latch until Levi comes." Bida smiled broadly.

From a distance, came someone Mr. Joko knew. The closer, the clearer his face. It was his grandfather named Joyosono. He wears a black shirt with a black turban. His face was the same when he was a child.

"Grandfather... " Pak Joko was stunned and greeted his grandfather. Mr. Joko kissed the back of the man's hand.

Bida watched the first man she saw questioningly.

Who her? Why do you call him Grandpa? Is he Bida's grandfather?

"Bida... Salimlah (shake hands) to your great-grandfather." Mr. Joko nudged his arm on Bida's body.

Bida reached out and kissed the back of the man's hand as his father did.

Pak Joko's grandfather looked at Bida's face. The position of Pak Joko and Bida who were sitting on a large rock made it unnecessary to bother looking down to straighten his gaze to Bida's face.

Bida was silent, when his great-grandfather's hand raised his chin and looked at Bida's lips long ago.

"What's her name? Pak Joko's grandfather asked with his eyes still fixed on Bida's lips.

"Name Bida". Joko answered his grandfather's question.

"I asked the name of the man who left a trace on her?" Pak Joko's grandfather still hasn't removed his hand from Bida's chin, he's still staring at Bida's lips.

Traces, traces what did grandfather mean? Grandpa observed Bida's lips. There was no trace of anything on Bida's lips. I also don't use lisptics. Mr. Joko then remembered the event when Bida and Levi were hit by a branch of a yangka tree. Back then there were traces of Bida's lipstick on Levi's lips and cheeks as well. But why does grandfather question who left his mark on Bida's lips. Wasn't the trace on Levi's lips and cheeks. Lipstick red brick makeup Bida when graduation was attached to Levi. This led to a stirring event that brought Bida and Levi to the marriage stage at the insistence of the provocateur named Bu Sulis.

"Name Levi." Joko said it clearly.

Pak Joko's grandfather took his hand off Bida's chin and smiled.

Bida looked down embarrassed, remembering Levi's kiss in his bibirmya. The two brief kisses still felt on his lips. Every time he remembered it, Bida felt as if Levi was peeping at him at that moment. Bida's face was red.

"Joko don't worry too much about Bida, the trail prevents her from frightening the view. He will only see his friends. There comes a time when he will never see or be seen by their nation again."

Grandfather took a few steps back from where he was standing and then turned around to leave them. With a short time, his body already seemed to shrink due to the distance that was getting further away and then disappeared from his sight. Mr. Joko looked at Bida who was also still staring at his great-grandfather disappearing.

"Wake up sir." Mr. Joko felt something shake his shoulder slowly. He opened his eyes, his wife was already sitting on the bed with wet hair.

"Mom just had a shower?" Mr. Joko got up to sit and stroked his wife's wet hair.

"Yes Sir. True Bida said, soaking in a bath with warm water and abundant foam is very pleasant. I woke up early and took a long soak. Wake up sir, I'll prepare the bath up for you."

"No need ma'am. I take a shower. But if the next time you take a bath, take the father yes. Looks like the bath up's enough for both of us."

Mr. Joko rushed to take a shower because the dawn of the Musholla was heard.

*****

Bida just finished sweeping the porch, he put his broom and then headed to the yard, He raised his head up the tree of ylang, looking for Wowo's whereabouts there. But Wowo is invisible.

Wowo where are you?

Bida went back inside the house. Take the broom and put it on a nail stuck in the kitchen of the back room of his house.

Bida observed her mother who was washing the eating utensils after breakfast. His mother looks beautiful using a negligee batik green color bottle with unraveled hair that looks still wet.

Bida approached her mother.

"Mom, why don't you cook in the new kitchen?"

"Mom's used to cooking in this kitchen. Besides the kitchen looks so clean, I'm worried about dirtying it. Bida's the one who's using that kitchen. I'm gonna use that kitchen to make drinks."

"As for mom. I prefer to use the kitchen. Mother, ... Why doesn't Bida see Wowo huh?"

Bida plays her fingernails.

"really? It's good that Bida doesn't see it. Bida said, Wowo is a terrible figure, right?" Bu Joko was happy to hear Bida didn't see Wowo.

Bu Joko wants to tell Bida's statement to Mr. Joko.

Bida must now be free from the world of subtle creatures. I'm going to see the poultice to tell him. Bu Joko dried her hands with her negligent haste.

"Grandmother, aunt... You guys finally met me. Levi left yesterday. It's good to see you again." Bida's carefree voice stopped Bu Joko's steps who intended to go to the cow pen to tell Bida's statement because Pak Joko was preparing a cow pen before taking the cow he entrusted to Pak Ridwan.

Bu Joko turned to look at Bida now. Bida raised her gaze towards the top of the kitchen. Bu Joko spread her gaze to all corners of the kitchen room. There's nobody there. Bida often tells that grandmothers and aunts like to hover.

Is Bida looking at grandma and aunt?

The face of Bu Joko who was sumringah looked back moody. He wants to take Bida out of the kitchen. Hope Bida doesn't communicate with the subtle creatures.

"Let's talk in the living room."

Bida stepped lightly towards the middle room.

Bu Joko followed Bida. Bu Joko sits on the chair that is in the new kitchen, observing Bida from there.

"Sir, my bedroom and bathroom are great. But I didn't let grandma and aunty see it because Levi said..."

"Mas Levi won't give any chance to the demon that will enter this room to accompany you and Levi's mas, before you graduate. If you graduate, Levi will come. Mas Levi will sleep in this room. But before that time comes, sleep alone, let the Levi mas sleep in the front room!"

Bida looked silent, her eyes staring straight at the empty chair in front of her.

"Mas Levi turned out to be fierce as well. Whereas at that time Bida only offered to mas Levi who slept in Bida's room. Bida slept in the front room. As long as there are no mothers and fathers, Levi likes to avoid Bida and be fierce to Bida."

Bida fell silent again, What did Bida talk to them about ? Bu Joko felt his gaze foggy. Groping the surface of the table in a sparkling kitchen set.

O Allah, give Levi back to Bida in time. Bu Joko rubbed her eyes before her tears managed to drip.

"So Wowo is still on top of the tree? How come Bida didn't see it."

Bida spoke again, his gaze towards the top of the middle space wall.

Bu Joko often observes Bida when communicating with the one Bida calls her grandmother and aunt. Bu Joko did not dare to leave Bida when that happened. The night before going to bed, Ms. Joko would tell her husband everything.
