MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
CHAPTER 23: BREAKFAST
An earthquake with more than nine magnitude was inevitable that night and was followed by a tsunami wave that was almighty. After both things happened, the beach was ravaged poranda and the sea was calm again. I lay on Mas Diki's shoulder.
"Thank you, dear," said softly Mas Diki as he stroked my hair.
"Mas, tomorrow I go with Mas to Nur's school or Mas back home after dropping off Nur?" my many.
"What's it like, brother?" ask back to Mas Diki.
"If we go together, yes, of course I do not have time to wash dishes and clean the house. And of course we have to stop by first to Jeng Fitri's house, he was WA to me to take clothes ordered by the mothers of the village next door. But, if Mas left alone to take Nur, of course all the homework will be done and we do not need to stop by Jeng Fitri's house," I replied.
"That little Fitri jerk, isn't it?" ask husband.
"Not a baffle, Mas. He was a pinter by the way. He's the best reseller in my boutique, you know," I replied.
"Mas ogah met him, brother. If he meets you always ask questions. I am worried about it" replied Mas Diki.
"Well, how are you, Mom?" my many.
"Yes, let me take Nur first to school, then just back home to pick you up. Okay?" said Mas Diki with a smile.
"Yes, then" I replied.
"Oh yes, Brother. Where are we going tomorrow, anyway?" tanya Mas Diki suddenly surprised me.
I took a breath and then exhaled slowly.
"Look, Mas. And remember no, the strange incident I had told Mas Diki a few days ago at Mbak Ning's house about a strange object in front of Mbak Ning's house that appeared in the middle of the night and left no trace of a trace and the next day?" I said while looking into my husband's shady eyes.
"Yes. Why, Dik?" tanya Mas Diki was curious.
I confirmed my sleeping position so that I could face the man who had eyes as sharp as this eagle.
"Look, Mas. After the incident, Ms. Ning and I will go to Mr. RT's house to check the CCTV installed in his house. Perhaps the CCTV recorded suspicious movements of someone at those hours. After I checked the contents of the CCTV footage although not 100 percent, but I have not found anything. Well, it turns out that there are others who installed CCTV that highlights closer to the page of Ms. Ning. The person was the owner of the house near Madam Ning's house. His name is Mr. Seno whose house is always closed because the person does not live there anymore. Well, tomorrow that Mr. RT invites me to go to Mr. Seno's house to ask for his CCTV footage. That is why I asked for the company of Mas Diki. Want to ask for the company of Ms. Ning, Ms. Ning is sick," I replied with a strong tone I was afraid Mas Diki was angry.
"Can't another day, brother?" Diki turned around asking. There was a less palatable look from Mas Diki's aorot's eyes back then.
"Can't do it, Mom. The memory used in the CCTV of Mr. Seno's house was limited. If we go there tomorrow, the possibility of recording on that day has been erased" I replied.
"Can't we ask Mr Seno for help over the phone?" asked Mas Diki exactly my question at that time to Mr. RT.
"Can't do it, Mom. All of us have not known Mr. Seno's personal number since he moved house" I replied calmly.
"Hm ... what if we ask for the address to Mr. RT and we leave alone so as not to trouble Mr. RT?" asked Mas Diki again exactly with my question at that time to Mr. RT.
"Pak RT does not memorize the location, Mas. He said the road to Mr. Seno's house was turning and difficult to explain in words or writing. How, Mas? Can I come with you tomorrow at eight? If you can't, I'm not leaving" I replied.
"What is it?" I asked with a sharp look towards Mas Diki.
"There are aftershocks and tsunamis, Dik ..," Mas Diki replied lightly with a smile at me.
"Mas, the earthquake and tsunami that had destroyed the beach, there must be an aftershock earthquake and tsunami, Mas?" my whine tried to refuse
"You usually do that, brother. Every time there's an earthquake and a tsunami, there's usually an aftershock and tsunami?" answer Mas Diki.
"Yes, Mas. But-" I replied.
I have not finished speaking, Mas Diko hastily launched his action on me so that I can not do much. Finally, the beach that was originally torn apart was again shaken by aftershocks and tsunamis which turned out to be the frequency beyond my expectations. Instead of declining, juateru is more powerful than major earthquakes and tsunamis. Basic, his sister Yu Darmi ...

The next day we almost woke up. Fortunately the alarm clock on my phone went off so we did not miss the time for the Fajr prayer, although Mas Diki could not attend the congregational prayer in the mosque because he had to take a shower first. Only Nur prayed in the mosque. I took turns showering and dawn prayers after Mas Diki finished. My body hurts everything after last night's war. Mas Diki smiled as I rubbed my joints in front of him. I replied with a smile.
After the prayer, I went straight to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. Mas Diki usually fiddles with his agenda book and also reports files from his men. I put a cup of coffee in front of him so he could focus more on checking the files. About an hour later, the food I made was in order. Mas Diki and Nur had prepared with their own clothes and equipment.
"Come on, breakfast first!" call me to both of them.
"Yahoo!!!" answer them both and immediately take their seats.
"Wah, my favorite vegetable lodeh. Thank you, Mom, it's already this masakin," said Nur.
"Yes. Mother did deliberately cook vegetable lodeh today so that you eat a lot of it," I replied while stroking my son's hair.
"Well, it turns out there's sambel terasi same fried tofu as well. This is my favorite," said Mas Diki.
"Yes. Coincidentally, there was Mang Karyo who brought to know the size of a jumbo. I'm curious, huh," I replied.
"Thank you, brother. Already tired of cooking for me and Nur," replied Mas Diki with a smile and one of his eyes blinked.
I understand Mas Diki is teasing me with the word 'cappies' that. He wanted to remind me of last night that made me tired. This time I will not give up again.
"It's okay, Mom. 'Capek' is a worship of many merits. Besides, I'm happy to cook for both of you," I replied with a deliberate voice and also with a facial expression that I also made up to tease Mas Diki.
Mas Diki also became furious with me. I smiled at the look on his face that looked furious. He gave me a code that he would reply to later. I pretended to be indifferent and enjoyed my victory this time. Yes, in front of Nur, Mas Diki certainly could not do much. He he ...
SERIATE
No baper yes ....
