MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
CHAPTER 22: SEDUCING
I have no choice but to agree to Mr. RT's invitation of course later I will not go alone, but I will invite Mas Diki to accompany me. And Mr. RT apparently did not mind it.
"It's good that you also invite the man who broke my heart" said Mr. RT.
"This incident, Mr. RT. Don't talk about it. We are now adults and we have a family together. It's not worth talking about it anymore" I replied.
"Yes .. yes, Brother. I was just kidding, really. That's when Dik Sinta was angry. Don't-Don't even Dik Sinta who carried the feeling," ledek Pak RT.
"Loh! Already ... already .. I want to pray Isya. There's nothing to talk about anymore, right?" cut me.
"OK .. okay .. I apologize if it is too presumptuous. Okay, tomorrow so yeah eight in the morning, huh? I'm waiting for you two in the big junction ahead. I asked the merchant pulse in front, he said the memory on CCTV Pak Seno was only able to save until tomorrow. So, if we do not meet Mr. Seno until tomorrow, wassalam already," replied Mr. RT.
"OK .. thank you" I replied briefly.
"Assalamualaikum, Dik Sinta ..," he said.
"Waalaikumsalam" I replied.
I hung up before Mr. RT hung up. I do not usually do it to maintain ethics, but somehow with Mr. RT it feels lazy to linger responding to it.
I took a deep breath while thinking how to convey that to Mas Diki? Will Mas Diki accompany me tomorrow to go to Mr Seno's house? Or will he be angry with me? I was confused, but I had no choice but to accept Mr. RT's offer because I was eager to find out the contents of the CCTV footage in Mr. Seno's house. After being able to calm down, I immediately ablaze and perform Isha prayers in the room.
I was pensively pensively above the bed while thinking about the circumstances at Madam Ning's house. I immediately sent WA to Mbak Ning to find out his latest condition.
"Assalamualaikum .. has the show finished, Ma'am?" I sent a message.
Shortly after, my message was read and Ms. Ning immediately replied to her.
"Just finished, Brother. These guys just finished cleaning up in the kitchen. All I leave to Bu Dibyo and Mbak Srintil to take care of the kitchen. They both just got home," replied Sister Ning.
"No more fighting the two of them, ma'am?" my many.
"Stay still, brother. Like Tom and Jerry they were. I don't know, if next week Sister Srintil has come with you, maybe they can both miss each other" replied Ms. Ning.
"Have Ms Ning delivered my message to Ms Srintil?" my many.
"Already," replied Sister Ning.
"So far, how is Srintil's reaction? Will he accept my offer, ma'am?" manya curious.
"Mbak Srintil is very happy, Sister. He said for a while his son would be cared for by one of his relatives here. Later if Mbak Srintil is already at home there, then his son wants to be invited to live there. His son had already gone to school here. So, the move also needs a process," replied Ms. Ning.
"Yes, Mother. After all, later Sister Srintil can have Sunday off, Ma'am. He can go home on Sunday" I said.
"Yes. Thank you very much, Dik, for his help against Mbak Srintil," replied Mbak Ning.
"Everything. Oh, yeah, how's Madam Ning doing now?" my many.
"Alhamdulillah, after I just took the medicine, the body has started to sweat. The head is no longer dizzy. Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to recover, Sister," replied Ms. Ning.
"Aamaii. Thank God, then, ma'am. Oh, yes, Ma'am, Mr. RT called me. He invited me to Mr. Seno's house to request CCTV footage at Mr. Seno's house" I replied.
"Oh yeah? Did Mr Seno install CCTV in front of his house? Hasn't the house been occupied for a long time?" ask Ms. Ning.
"Yes, Mother. He said his CCTV was still active even though his house was not occupied. It's for safety, "I answered.
"When do you want to go to RT? With anyone?" ask Ms. Ning.
"The plan is tomorrow morning, Ma'am. Memory on CCTV is limited. If the day after tomorrow, most likely the video recording at that night has been erased automatically by the system. I will probably leave with Mas Diki. You see, I also told Mr. RT that Ms. Ning was not feeling well so could not come," I replied.
"Yes, you should indeed go with your husband to avoid slander" replied Ms. Ning.
"Oh yes, Ma'am. Does Sister Srintil have a mobile number?" my many.
"It's okay, Ma'am. Just send me the number so it's good that I'll call her at any time" I replied.
"OK," replied Sister Ning.
Then Ma'am Ning sent a card containing the contact number of Mbak Srintil. I immediately saved Sister Srintil's number on my phone.
"Rest yes, Ma'am. Let it heal quickly. It looks like Mas Diki has come from Isya prayer. Assalamualaikum ...," the last message I sent to Ms. Ning that night.
"OKAY. Waalaikumsalam," replied Sister Ning.
I also welcomed the arrival of Mas Diki and by opening the front door.
"Assalamualaikum" hail Mas Diki
"Waalaikumsalam" I replied.
"Have you prayed, brother?" ask Mas Diki.
"Here you go, my mom" I replied.
Mas Diki also put the peci and prayer mat that he brought on the sideboard. Nur went straight into his room. Maybe he wants to study or prepare a textbook that will be brought tomorrow to school. Afterwards, Mas Diki sat on a chair in front of the television he turned on. I sat next to Mas Diki.
"Mas, can I make tea or coffee?" tanyaku.
"White water only, Sister. It is not good to drink sugar at night, not diabetes," replied Mas Diki.
"Okay, wait a minute, Honey!" I answered mischievously while walking to get a glass of water at the dinner table.
Mas Diki seemed to smile at my naughty call.
"This, Mas, the white water." I said as I placed the glass filled with water on the table right in front of Mas Diki.
"Dik Sinta tumben well, huh? Don't you want it?" guess Mas Diki's.
"Ah, Mas Diki did say that, anyway? Can't I be good with my husband?" my protest.
"Yes, I can, anyway. But, usually if it's good gini, the ending will be nothing, right?" guess again.
"Mas, how do you know, anyway?" grumbling.
"Well, really, right? What do you need, honey? Come on, talk to Mas," said Mas Diki friendly.
"Hm ... Anu, Mum. Tomorrow after dropping off Nur, Mas Diki can not nganterin me?" my many.
"Where to go, brother?" ask Mas Diki.
"That, Mas. My delapanan hour has someone's appointment. But I can't go alone. I need the company of Mas diki. Can you?" my rayuku.
"Hour eight? Hm ... Looks like I'm empty at that hour, brother. After the new Zuhur I have an agreement with a new colleague. Okay if it's eight," replied Mas Diki.
"Horeeeeeee ... Thanks, yes, Mas. Mas Diki already wants to bring me. Mas emang best deh," I replied while kissing Mas Diki's cheek.
"But there are conditions!" answer Mas Diki later.
"What's the condition, Mom?" I asked.
Mas Diki suddenly turned off the television. After that he locked the door and closed the curtains.
"Duh, if it's like this, I will understand the conditions he proposed," I thought in my heart.
