MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
EPISODE 61: KEZEL

Jamila came home sad. His heart was broken at that moment. It turns out that Mr. Ratno who he craved is nothing more than a man who likes to spread charm and conquer the feelings of women. Destroyed by Jamila's feelings when remembering how Mr. Ratno embraced Minul in the banana garden earlier. Jamila's mangkelnya so much that he did not reply when greeted by the villagers of Pomegranate who passed by him.

At about ten o'clock in the afternoon, Jamila arrived at her house. The woman hurriedly took a shower to cool off her feelings. The woman languished in the bathroom so she finally heard the voice of her son who was calling her.

“Bu, there are guests,” call his son who is still in 1st grade SD it.

“Who?” ask Jamila from the room.

“Mother just come out let me see for yourself. I want to eat ice cream,” replied the little boy.

“Loh, where did you get that ice cream? I haven't given you any pocket money?” jamila protested while hastily finishing her bath.

After that Jamila hurriedly entered the room to change her clothes. Then Jamila combed her hair and just went straight out to the living room to meet the guest reported by her son just now.

In the living room, Jamila only saw Gio eating his ice cream and she did not see a single person there.

“Loh, where's the guest, Gio?” jamila asked her son.

“Assalamualaikum ..” says someone from homepage.

The voice of Jamila who asked Gio seemed to be heard by the person. So he dared to say hello because he already knew the existence of Jamila.

“Waalaikumsalam .. P-Pak Ratno?” greet Jamila with stammering.

Jamila was quite surprised by the presence of the old man in her house because she had just been angry at the man, but in fact the man suddenly appeared before her directly. Jamila's mind became confused for a moment. Expelling Mr. Ratno is impossible because Mr. Ratno does not know the reason he expelled him. If Jamila said honestly that she was angry that Mr. Ratno was making out in the banana garden with Minul, it would be tantamount to uncovering a secret that he made himself.

“Iya, Miles. Its me. Sorry if I was sassy to come to your house without permission first,” said Mr. Ratno.

“We chat in front only yes, sir. It's not good for people to talk inside. Fearing to cause slander,” replied Jamila as she walked outside the living room.

“Eh, yes, Mil,” replied Mr Ratno kalem.

Mr. Ratno was finally invited to sit by Jamila. They sat in chairs facing each other and were separated by an oval-shaped table.

“Pak Ratno who gives ice cream to Gio?” ask Jamila in a flat tone.

“Iya. Why, Mil? I bought it at Bu Yana's store just before leaving here,” Mr. Ratno politely replied.

“Other times do not need to give anything to my son. Let alone ice cream,” said Jamila with a ketus tone.

“What's the matter, Mil? I see your son loves ice cream,” said Mr. Ratno with curiosity.

“Gio is often sick, sir. She was her ASI was not complete because I had a lot of problems with my ex-husband. He cannot be fed carelessly. Her child is often strep throat,” replied Jamila in a flat tone.

“I'm sorry then, Mil. But your son already ate it. How on?” asked Mr. Ratno with a guilty feeling.

“Biarin. That's my business. It's not Mr. Ratno's business. Better Mr Ratno now directly convey the purpose of coming here what? I have a lot of work behind,” replied Jamila firmly.

Jamila's attitude is a bit tighter like that is very much different than usual. Mr. Ratno felt it was awkward for him, but he did not dare to ask her directly to the woman. Afraid Jamila was angry with him. Mr. Ratno chose to say his purpose directly to Jamila.

“Anu, Miles. I just went to the house of the Goddess Mother. He wants to ask you for help,” said Mr. Ratno smoothly to the woman in front of him.

“Bu Goddess? He wants to ask for help what is the same as me?” tanya Jamila is enthusiastic.

Mr. Ratno was happy to see the joy that was painted on the face of the beautiful woman in front of him.

“Bu Dewi would like to ask for help with you to buy cartons, crackles, mica, and others for the purpose of closing ceremony tahlilan Mbak Laras. Can you, Mil?” replied Mr. Ratno in a flat tone. He knew for sure Jamila would not be able to refuse the request of the best women in the hamlet of Pomegranate.

Jamila watched every syllable thrown by Mr. Ratno.

“Why did Lady Goddess ask me for help, sir? Usually did he send Mr Ratno or Mr Salihun?” Jamila asked. This time it wasn't as fast as it was.

“You don't want to know, Mil? Ntar, I told Bu Dewi that you can't,” said Mr. Ratno in repressive sentences. The man knew for sure that Jamila would not if he reported to Madam Dewi for her refusal.

“That's not what I mean, sir! I want to. But, I was curious about the tumben-tumbenan Bu Dewi asked me for help. Usually previously asked by him if not Mr Ratno yes Mr Salihun?” reply Jamila.

“Oh that's your question. Look, Mil. Didn't you hear the news? In a moment the body of Mr. Dimas came from the hospital and will soon be buried in this Pomegranate hamlet. You know for yourself, right? It was me and Mr. Salihun who would dig a grave for every citizen buried here. Maybe Madam Dewi thought she felt sorry for the two of us if we had to go again after tired of digging the tomb. After all, there are still others who can be asked for help by him other than the two of us to buy the last rescue equipment,”, replied Mr. Ratno at length to smooth his lie.

“Alright then, sir. Means I have to walk forward, yeah, later?” ask Jamila.

“Iya, Miles. It's okay, right?” ask Mr. Ratno.

“Nothing, Sir. I'm a regular,” replied Jamila.

“This is the money from Bu Dewi,” said Mr. Ratno while handing over some money and a note of the purchase list he requested from Bu Dewi before.

“This is it, sir? No other need?” jamila asked in a tone back to ketus after receiving money from Mr. Ratno.

“Already, Mil. Oh yeah, you're leaving at what time?” ask Mr. Ratno.

“OK. Then I say goodbye,” said Mr. Ratno as he stood up from his seat while sticking his hand to Jamila to shake hands.

“OK. I'm in first, huh?” sahut Jamila while turning around and closing the door of his house from the inside without caring about the feelings of Mr. Ratno who was confused because the attitude of Jamila who was getting here was getting strange, he said.

  “I'm sorry, Mr. Ratno. I shouldn't have acted that way towards you, but you've already hurt my heart too much. I don't want to feel the second heartache. It's not your fault, Mr. Ratno. I was wrong. I was wrong because I love you too much. I'm expecting too much from you. You never expressed your feelings to me either. You're just paying attention to me, but I'm too Baper. Well, it's all my fault. I shouldn't be in a hurry to put deep feelings on you. After all, it turns out that you are doing this not only to me, but to every woman you meet,” Jamila said in her heart while hugging her favorite bolster.

The same with Mr. Ratno. The man's heart also felt pain due to Jamila's insistent attitude towards him.

“Jamila. Why are you acting like that to me? Are you worried about me? You were acting so sweet towards me before. Don't-Don't be right about my guess. If you don't really like me. You just used me to get close to Salihun? God, why did this have to happen to me? Why should there be such a feeling of love in my heart that I should be disappointed in the end? Nah! I can't give up! Maybe Jamila was like that to me just because she was PMS. Isn't a girl if she is PMS that her attitude is like that?” mr. Ratno said in his heart.

A few minutes later, a motorcade arrived carrying Mr. Dimas' body. All the residents of Pomegranate hamlet crowded to take care of the body of the man who is famous for being polite and calm. They did not expect that it turned out that Mr. Dimas was secretly a junkie of illicit goods. Bu Dewi was also present to watch the management of Mr. Dimas' body. People who have been gossiping Laras behind Bu Dewi did not dare to approach Bu Dewi because they felt ashamed of themselves.

Mr. Ratno and Mr. Salihun became the busiest people among the other grave diggers because they are both famous for being the most proficient in the business of digging tombs. The funeral was held at eleven o'clock in the afternoon, witnessed by the entire population of Pomegranate hamlet. Bu Dimas and Niko could not control his tears watching Mr. Dimas must be gnawing the ground. Ms. Jefri and Mr. Jefri who tried to calm the feelings of Mr. Dimas' wife and children at that time. Madam Dewi who helped deliver the body of Mr. Dimas to the tomb was also sad. However, the woman was sad because she was the only one who knew that Mr. Dimas had been killed by Laras. Miss Dewi did not linger at the funeral because she thought of Panji. He came last and went home before the funeral was over. That's how it is to live in the village. Any serepot must still show concern to the neighbors so as not to be gossiped by the neighbors. But, is Miss Dewi safe from the gossip of her neighbors? Nah! Although Lady Dewi has often given alms to her neighbors, it does not mean she will be free one hundred percent of the whispers of the neighbors. There is always a gap for the residents of Pomegranate hamlet to look for the faults of others. If the mistake was not obtained from the family of the Lady Goddess, then the mistake could come from another family, such as Laras.

After the funeral was over, Mr. Ratno chased after Mr. Salihun who was walking towards a small river in the hamlet of Pomegranate. They both wanted to wash their shovels and dirty parts of their bodies before entering their homes. Mr. Salihun is no longer upset with Mr. Ratno. So he felt guilty to his friend because he secretly disguised himself as Mr. Ratno and met Jamila at his friend's house in a state of lights off.

“Why are you running, Rat?” greet Mr. Salihun while looking back because he heard the sound of thumping oang who was running.

Mr. Ratno did not answer immediately because he adjusted his breath first after running after his friend.

“Hun, Madam Dewi told you to buy equipment for the last tahlilan event Mbak Laras,” replied Mr. Ratno after managing to catch his breath again.

“OK. Same with you, right?” Mr. Salihun asked back.

“Hm .. No, Hun. I can not come because I was asked to help Miss Dimas to help at the house of Ms. Dimas,” replied Mr. Ratno lying.

“You want to help around the house of Mr Ade and Bu Nisa? You do not remember how they treated the family of Bu Dewi?” mr. Salihun.

“It's about death, Hun. Not a show. What are we doing now? We helped dig Mr. Dimas's grave which was clearly an accomplice of Mr. Ade's family. Yes, right?” mr Ratno's Protest.

“Iya, true Rat. Forgive my mistake just now. After all, even though the others are not so we like, but Mrs Dimas himself is calm and has never been involved in gossip like the others,” replied Mr. Salihun.

“Still yes, Hun,” said Mr. Ratno as he descended into the stream and washed his hoe.

“Means who am I going with, Rat?” ask Mr. Salihun later.

“You just wait in the T-junction, Hun. Later after Zuhur there will be a messenger from Bu Dewi who goes there,” replied Mr. Ratno while smiling with bitterness.

“Who's the guy, Rat? Just make me curious. Let me stop by Miss Dewi's house after this,” replied Mr. Salihun to make Mr. Ratno scared.

“Eh, no, Hun! Madam Dewi these hours are complicated by Panji. Just right there, Miss Dewi kayak hassles so fitting greetings with you,” said Mr. Ratno lying.

“Ya already then out of Zuhur prayer I will go directly to the T-junction to wait for the person who will accompany me to the market to buy the tahlilan equipment

“Nah, so dong! New my friend,” said Mr. Ratno.

“Oh yes Rat, I'm sorry, yes?” said Mr. Salihun suddenly.

“What's sorry, Hun?” ask Mr. Ratno curious.

“Hm .. I'm sorry because  …. Yeah, just apologize. Time can't?” said Mr. Salihun.

“While you are, Hun. Time has nothing wrong, I apologize all!”gerutu Mr. Ratno.

“Ya already, Rat. Just sorry. Just bother. Yes, right?” answer Mr. Salihun.

“Ya I'm sorryin. Basic wong jerky!” ledek Mr. Ratno while riding on the bull.

“Well, that's dong! Thanks to my friend?” sahut Pak Salihun was happy because Mr. Ratno's words made his guilt less.

“Come! You don't want to go home?” asked Mr. Ratno while sticking out his hand to help Mr. Salihun climb onto the bull.

“Oke,” says Mr. Salihun happy.

They both went home to bathe and get ready to perform Zuhr prayer. After the Zuhur prayer, Mr. Salihun will immediately go to the T-junction to meet the people who will accompany him to go to the market.
