MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
EPISODE 79: SUSPICIOUS
So surprised, Miss Dewi woke up from her sleep in the middle of the night. Cold sweat flooded the body of the woman who still looked beautiful at her ripe age. The anger still controls the mind and heart of Madam Dewi when she just woke up from her sleep. The eyes of the Goddess Mother stared at the ceiling sharply while trying to unravel her consciousness.
“Luckily only dream ...,” said Bu Dewi to himself.
The woman rubbed her face that was flooded with sweat. He caught his own breath gasping. Although Miss Dewi realized that what she experienced just now was a dream, but she could not deny herself that it was very disturbing to her mind. After calming herself, Miss Dewi looked at Panji who was fast asleep beside her. He looked at the face of his adopted son with great affection.
“Why can I dream like that, huh? If you look around, there is a little resemblance between Panji and Mas Herman. But, how could Mas Herman marry Laras secretly behind my back? Can't Laras marry Mas Herman? Ah, I'm sure it was all just a dream. They can't possibly do that. I've never seen anything suspicious of either of them. Even at Laras' funeral, Mas Herman could not come because of his busy life outside the city. I'm sure this is all just a dream,” said Miss Dewi in her heart.
Kletek .. Kletek .. Kletek …
There was a sound of people opening the front door of the house of Bu Dewi.
“Well, that's Mas Herman has come,” said Ms. Dewi.
After that, someone stepped into the house and heard the sound of a bag slammed onto the table. It's a habit for Mr. Herman. Every time he came home in the middle of the night, he slept in the living room chair because he did not want to disturb his wife and Panji yan was asleep.
“Mas, sleep inside only!” greet Bu Dewi to her husband who surprised the mature old man.
“You haven't slept, Dik?” ask Mr. Herman standing up again.
“It's done, Mas. Just happened to wake up,” replied Miss Dewi as she stepped out of the room towards the living room table.
“Sorry, just open my door too hard to disturb your rest, Dik,” said Mr. Herman.
“No, Mas. I usually don't wake up. Maybe now it just happens that Mas Herman came, when I woke up,” replied Miss Dewi.
“Let me bring my own bag, Dik!” said Mr. Herman while seizing the bag from the hand of Miss Dewi.
“Nothing, Mas. Let me just bring you Mas Herman's backpack for once. Plis, just this once ..” pinta Bu Dewi.
“Do not, Dik. Heavy bag. I don't want you to do anything. You are tired all day doing housework. Oh yeah, how's the banner all day?” said Mr. Herman.
“Alhamdulillah, Panji is healthy and not fussy at all,” replied Bu Dewi with a slightly tingled feeling when her husband asked the state of Panji.
After entering the room, Mr. Herman looked at Panji who was asleep.
“Duh, funny father if you sleep again. That banner is cute huh, Dik?” said Mr. Herman with a glowing face.
“Customize to put the word ‘MasyaAllah’ every praise creature, Mas. So that our praise does not have a bad impact on the people we praise,” replied Ms. Dewi.
“Iya, Dik's. Sorry, I forgot,” replied Mr. Herman.
“Yes, Cute pennant as his mother,” replied Bu Dewi with jealousy.
“Ih, his mother wants to join his son,” replied Mr. Herman as he touched the chin of Bu Dewi and threw a crisp smile
Bu Dewi who initially wanted to insinuate her husband by calling ‘Laras’ which she meant as her mother Panji, instead became cool because her husband thought that Bu Dewi was meant ‘ibu’ by Mr. Herman. The feeling of being a mother really made the woman's heart cool, even though she knew that Panji was not born from her own womb. Lady Dewi replied to her husband's joke with a fluffy smile. He was jealous of Baras. Mr. Herman is a good man who really understands how to make a wife happy who has supported her career and life at home. Could a man like Mr Herman be having an affair behind his wife?
“Mas, I made you warm tea first, yes?” ask Miss Goddess to Mr. Herman.
“You're not tired?” ask Mr. Herman.
“No, Mas. I also find it difficult to go to sleep again,” replied Miss Dewi while walking from the room to the kitchen.
I don't know why tonight Miss Dewi just enjoy walking alone to the kitchen. Maybe it's the effect of Mr. Herman in his house. After Miss Dewi arrived at the kitchen, she immediately lit the stove and heated the water using a pot. Meanwhile Mr. Herman was busy watching Panji. Of course, after he washed his hands using a special cleaning fluid because he did not want to go home to bring the disease virus to his family.
While waiting for the water to boil, Madam Dewi prepared her tea in an antique cup that has been dozens of years in their kitchen. The beautiful woman poured hot water into a cup containing a pendulum-shaped tea. Since long ago she never switched to other brands because her husband really likes the legendary. Madam Dewi stirred her tea so that the sugar mixed evenly. Ms. Dew smelled a different smell when she was about to finish brewing the drink.
“You what is this?” ask the Goddess herself.
The woman felt strange at that time because she never smelled it in her house. He was well known to be neat and clean, so there could not be a strange smell in his house. The woman snorted to find the source of the smell that stung the nose. However, he did not find any suspicious objects such as rat carcasses and so on.
After Miss Dewi was looking for nothing, she finally thought to look for it tomorrow because it was night. And she also intended to bring her finished hot tea to the living room to be drunk by her husband. However, he felt that someone was standing behind the woman. She thought it was her husband who was following her to the kitchen.
“Tehnya is done, Mas! Here, I am looking for something-“ said Miss Dewi while looking back.
And how surprised the woman was because the one standing behind her was not Mr. Herman. But a creature dressed in white and long hair with a face very creepy.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!” shouted the Goddess Mother with fear.
SERIATE
