MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
CHAPTER 29: THE FORCED
I squinted to focus my eyes on the windshield in front of me.
"P-a-k R-T?" pekikku can't believe it.
I was quite surprised by the presence of this man in front of me. I really didn't think this car belonged to that guy. As far as I know, the car in his house is different brand with this one. This guy was on time too. Maybe he had even come a few minutes earlier at a place we had agreed.
'Well, where Sister Srintil hasn't come yet!'
"Sik Sinta came alone? Where's Dikinta's husband?" ask Mr. RT while getting off his car which is classified as luxury.
I am still shocked by the sudden appearance of this man became misbehaved.
"E .... Anu, Sir ... Uh, my husband suddenly had a sudden affair," I stammered.
The man who was currently wearing a short-sleeved shirt and matching material pants walked towards me. The fragrance of his expensive perfume smelled from a distance of several meters in front of him.
"Would we just go alone?" ask when it is right in front of me.
Honestly, the question seemed to be annoying, but at that time there was no strange aura in the question. He took it in a serious tone.
"Of course not, sir. I've contacted someone to come with us" I replied trying to calm down.
"Someone?" ask him curiously.
His thick brows seemed to be wrinkled as he spoke that.
Just this time I communicate with a fairly close distance with Mr. RT of course after a long time we are both separated by time and the journey of each other's lives. A shadow of the past came back to my mind when me and Mr. RT were both teenagers. Yes, actually Mr. RT is a good person. And he is also much pursued by girls both in his school and around his residence. That said, Ms. Ning Pak RT said it was a little late to get married because she was still expecting me.
'Well, why did I think of that stupid thing, huh?'
I hurriedly dispelled those strange thoughts. I don't want to dissolve in feelings that I don't deserve to express anymore. Doesn't Mr RT have a family of his own? And I also have a much more perfect husband than Mr. RT. My meeting with Mr. RT was not to destroy each of us' happiness, but because there were important things I had to do in order to uncover the peculiarities in Ms. Ning's house.
"Yes, Mr. RT. I've asked Sister Srintil to accompany us" I replied in a flat tone.
"Srintiles? Oh, no!" the handsome man suddenly.
He held his head while cursing himself.
"Why, Sir? It doesn't matter, does it, I invite Sister Srintil?" I was curious to see the action that made me confused.
"Srintil came home confused. It seemed he had been there to ask for help, but to no avail. He asked me to take him somewhere. Because I felt there was an appointment with Dikinta automatically I refused to help Srintil. Stupidly, I did not ask Srintil where he was going. I was also in a hurry, anyway, afraid of being late," replied Mr. RT with a regretful expression.
"Well, how could that be, anyway? But, why didn't Sister Srintil contact me, yes, if she didn't get a ride?" gruntuku confusion.
"Try calling him. Perhaps he is on the road and is on his way here" ordered Mr. RT.
I rushed to make a phone call to Sister Srintil through my gawa. But, Sister Srintil's number is out of reach.
"Duh, the number's off, sir. Earlier, Sister Srintil did say that her cellphone battery dropped," I replied rather annoyed.
"Maybe he's on the road" RT said.
"Can be. But, what if Mbak Srintil's phone error because the battery is too drop?" my word.
"Try you call Ms. Ningmu to ask Ms. Srintil," said Mr. RT.
"All right" I replied.
I also directly contacted Ms. Ning's number and directly connected.
"Sir, don't you see Sister Srintil? He promised to come with me" I asked.
"OK, Mommy. Thank you," I replied.
After I hung up, Mr. RT asked again.
"Where, Sinta?"
"Maybe Sister Srintil is on the road, sir. Let's wait, "I replied.
"All right then. Can I sit over here?" ask Mr. RT politely.
"Sir RT just wait in the car, let me wait here," I replied.
"What if you just have to wait in the car? I'm waiting here?" reply Pak RT.
"No, Sir. I'll just wait here" I replied.
"Yes already. We both wait here" replied Mr. RT.
Mr. RT was sitting next to me at a considerable distance. Honestly, it is a bit uncomfortable also if you have to sit close to Mr. RT. For a few minutes we just sat quietly while waiting anxiously. I actually didn't hesitate to talk to Mr. RT, but I just didn't want to get too familiar with that guy.
After waiting for about half an hour, then Mr. RT greeted me.
"Dik Sin, why hasn't Srintil come yet, huh?" ask Mr. RT.
"Yes, Sir. Try to call again," I replied while making a call back to Mbak Srintil's number.
"Where, Brother?" ask Mr. RT later.
"It's still the same as before, sir," I replied listlessly.
"Dik ... should we just cancel our departure?" ask Mr. RT suddenly.
"Well, why, sir? Is Mr RT any other event? If so, yes, that's okay" I replied.
"It's not so, Dik Sin. I'm afraid Mr. Seno will leave his house if we are too late to go there. Mr. Seno is a busy man, Dik Sin," he replied.
"Well, what, huh, sir?" I voiced my confusion.
"While we're just going alone, I don't feel good about Dik Sinta and also Dik Sinta's husband." Finally came out the sentence that was also on my mind.
Hearing Mr. RT's sincere words, I so rethink to thwart this plan. Doesn't the person who says honestly the bad taste means there is sincerity there and that means nothing will happen if me and Mr. RT go both to Mr. Seno's house.
'Come on, Sin, decide quickly? Isn't it daytime? Safe, really, even though you have to go alone with Mr. RT, ' the voice from my heart.
I took a deep breath and then said.
"Sir, what if we still go to Mr Seno's house?" my spoken.
"You mean, we're both leaving?" tanyakanya.
I nodded slowly.
"Are you okay?" ask Mr. RT.
"We have no other choice, sir. I need a lot with the contents of the CCTV footage," I replied.
"Alright, then, Dik Sin. Come, we leave immediately so that we can meet with Mr. Seno," replied Mr. RT while opening the car door for me.
