MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)
EPISODE 86: MANAGER

Cintia stared at the guest data book with a feeling of uneasiness. The main purpose of coming to this hotel and acting this crazy was for the sake of that guest data book. But, once the thing he was looking for was in front of his eyes, his conscience spoke that he could not possibly take an item that was not his own. In such a giddy state, suddenly sounding deheman from the side.

“Ehem …. Welcome to the Flower hotel, Mak!” greet a man.

Cintia turned her head towards the source of the voice. How surprised the woman was because she saw the two men had come carrying a handsome and neat man in front of her. To eliminate his panic, he also pulled out his death.

“Wong liwang liweng, tekoo mrene genderuwo .. pocong .. kuntilanak .. ono boy sing ngenteni your crew …,” Cintia said the Javanese sentence while pointing at the neatly dressed man who had just arrived.

“Stop, Mom! Don't continue! Forgive my two employees who have been disrespectful to Mak!” shouted the man politely as he approached Cintia.

“Pak ... we are afraid. Please tell that granny to stop the spell!” regek Togar's.

“Nek, geez .. don't Grandma invite those ghosts here!” yell out Early too with fear.

Cintia stopped her activities for a moment. However, a few seconds later he repeated his sentence again to provide shock therapy for the two people who had wanted to drive him away from the hotel.

“Wong liang liweng ...” Cintia said with a facial expression deliberately made spooky.

“Tidaaaaak!!!” togar shouted increasingly frightened.

“Ampuuuun, Neeeeek!!!” shouted Dini while holding the hand of her manager.

The manager with a name tag that says ‘Permadi’ was also casually approaching Cintia who was staring intently at the three of them.

“Mak, once again I apologize for the impoliteness of my employees earlier. If Mak is still angry, please Mak punish me. I will be ready to bear the mistakes of my two subordinates,” Permadi said as he bowed in front of Cintia.

Cintia was quite amazed by the gentle attitude of the Flower Hotel manager who dared to bear the mistakes of his men. In this day and age, it is difficult to find such a leader. There they often enslave their subordinates and when there is a mistake, everything is delegated to their subordinates by giving witnesses or even firing them.

“Alright, Permadi. This time I forgive the mistakes of these two lashings,” replied Cintia in a voice deliberately ordered to convince them that he was indeed a powerful shaman.

“Thank you, Mom. Now, my mother comes with me to my room. So Mak can rest for a while in my room. Mak must be tired after traveling all the way here. By the way Mak ride what was it?” ask Permadi.

“I walk!” replied Cintia with a heavy and firm voice.

“Iya, Mother. I should not ask that because Mak is always walking anywhere,” replied Permadi.

“Come, take Mak to your room. Mak wants to drink a glass of warm tea after a long trip,” said Cintia took advantage of the precious opportunity.

“Teh warm? I have provided my favorite Luwak coffee Mak in my room,” sahut Permadi.

“Oh so .. I don't think you know my favorite. Yes already, you just make me a cup!” cintia answered spontaneously because she did not want her disguise to be known by Permadi.

“Alright, Mak. Monggo, Mom! We're very happy that Mak can come here soon. You see, we were confused when Jatmiko told me that Mak could not come in the near future. In fact, we really need the help of Mak,” said Permadi as he walked to his private room behind the reception room.

“Jatmiko?” Cintia unintentionally muttered.

“Iya, Jatmiko Mak's son. Why, Mak?” tanya Permadi slightly scrunched her forehead because of the wonder the shaman in front of her did not remember her own child.

“The child has always been so. Forgive Jatmiko yes, Permadi. He was always careless in his decisions. Lah wong I loose why he said bother, do not pity you are confused if not immediately helped by me,” timpal Cintia with confidence.

“Iya, Mother. Its alright. Maybe Jatmiko doesn't want to see Mak exhausted. Doesn't it seem like it's old now?” Permadi.

“What? You said I was old? Don't you think even though I'm old, my energy is no longer strong enough to help people?” Cintia pretended to protest to further reinforce her identity as a seasoned shaman.

“M-forgive my sass, Mak!” answer Permadi with a bow.

Cintia laughed in her heart at the ridiculous manner of the manager of the Flower Hotel that she managed to trick.

“Already. Next time do not repeat. I don't like being called weak. You understand that!” Cintia.

“Iya, Mak,” sahut Permadi.

Meanwhile, Herman who was listening to their conversation through a communication tool installed by Cintia in his disguise also laughed out loud since then. It can also see the visual appearance of the three people Cintia met. Their high attitude Cintia makes Herman not strong enough to withstand stomach pain due to constantly laughing in the room he rented to monitor Cintia.

After walking for a few minutes, Cintia arrived in the Permadi's private room. Cintia clucked in amazement at the manager's extremely luxurious room.

“Please sit, Mak!” said Permadi to the old woman in front of him.

Cintia was immediately sitting on the soft chair. He was really amazed by the interior design of the manager's room. He really did not expect there to be an office room but as luxurious as a palace like that.

“Din, please prepare bitter coffee for Mak and warm tea for me!” permadi's orders to his men.

“Good, Sir!” answer Early while walking towards the mini bar which is also located inside the room.

“Togar, you're back to the front. Keep in the reception room replace Early position for a while!” permadi's orders on the security that followed him earlier.

“Ready, Sir!” togar replied as he walked away from the luxurious room.

Not until a few minutes, the drinks ordered by Permadi have been completed by Dini. Dini brought the two cups to the table in the middle of Permadi and Cintia.

“There's more I can help you with, Sir?” ask Dini politely.

“For while no. Please go back to your desk. Fear no guests coming,” Permadi orders.

“Good, I'm sorry, sir .. Mak ..” said Dini while staring at Permadi and Cintia.

Cintia deliberately glared her eyes when Dini looked at her face. He wanted to scare the young girl. Sure enough, Dini again ducked when her eyes met Cintia's eyes because she was frightened to see Cintia's eyes glaring at her.

“Please drink first, Mak!” said Permadi to Cintia.

Cintia just nodded, even though in her heart was raging.

“Duh, why did I say when I wanted to make hot coffee, huh? I have mag disease. Usually my stomach hurts when I force myself to drink coffee. Duh, stupid me! But, what else. This is a risk that I have to bear,” Cintia told herself.

Permadi poured hot tea over the blisters so that the temperature of the tea slightly dropped and can be drunk by him. Cintia also followed Permadi poured coffee on the lepek. After that both of them both lifted his blisters and sipped them from above the blisters.

Sreng!!!

“How, Mak? Enough hooks already?” ask Permadi to Cintia.

Cintia who never drank coffee let alone bitter coffee was surprised when her tongue came into contact with the coffee. If Permadi was not in front of him, maybe Cintia had melted back the coffee water that he absorbed it. However, Cintia must be forced to pretend to drink the bitter coffee in front of Permadi so as not to invite the suspicion of the Flower Hotel manager in front of him.

“The taste is suitable for me,” replied Cintia while enduring the pain in her stomach due to the high caffeine contained in the bitter coffee.

“Thank God that the coffee taste is suitable for Mak. I have been looking for it in advance to please Mak,” said Permadi.

Cintia only smiles at a glance because she believes a shaman does not need to be too friendly to her clients.

“Please have the cake eaten, Mak! Sorry I only have stock of this cake at resto,” said Permadi.

“This is my favorite cake, Pugilist!” answer Cintia while taking a piece of moci cake from a famous brand served on the table.

Intention cintia only one time that wanted to neutralize the bitter taste in his mouth due to drinking the bitter coffee.

“Mak likes moci cake?” tanya Permadi did not believe.

“Lumayan, Permadi. Mak clients often bring this cake to Mak,” replied cintia ngasal.

“Wah, this Mak is indeed amazing. Please eat the cake. Spending is okay too. And don't forget Mak's favorite bitter coffee is also a spent stream,” said Permadi happily.

Cintia felt bitter when Permadi mentioned ‘The bitter’ coffee. He had to pretend to be happy drinking bitter coffee when he did not like to drink coffee, let alone bitter coffee.

After finishing the coffee show, Permadi began to tell his complaints to Cintia.

“Mak, lately in this hotel there are often sightings,” said Permadi began his complaints.

“What kind of sighting, Permadi?” ask Cintia.

“If you have entered magrib time, employees here and even guests have also been bullied by a female ghost,” replied Permadi.

“Girl ghost?” ask Cintia.

“Iya. Sometimes she shows up in the kitchen disturbing the cooks on night duty, sometimes appearing around the receptionist, and sometimes even in the hotel room. Almost all employees in this hotel have been bullied by the female ghost. There were even some employees who resigned out of fear. Hotel visitors were once there who checked out early for fear of being bullied by the female ghost,” Permadi replied at length.

Cintia listened to the manager's story with enthusiasm.

“Can you show me the room where the female ghost annoys this hotel guest?” ask Cintia.

“Come, take me to that room!” answer Cintia.

Permadi got up from his seat and invited Cintia to walk to the room intended by him. Cintia posed back pain when she just got up from her seat to convince Permadi. After that they both took the elevator to the second floor where the position of room 204 was located. Herman who did not want anything to happen to Cintia came out of his room to follow the movements of the two people. Herman deliberately pretended to stand on the second floor emergency stairs while observing the movements of Cintia and Herman on the 204th floor. Cintia felt calmer because there was Herman on the same floor as her.

When Permadi opened the 204th room, Cintia felt an air of discomfort in the room.

“Come, we go inside, Permadi!” bring Cintia.

“What need we go inside, Mak?” ask Permadi.

“Why? You scared?” ask Cintia.

“Iya, Mother. It has been quite a long time this room has been vacated since there was a complaint from the hotel guest,” replied Permadi.

“Come on, you have nothing to fear. There I am here!” answer Cintia.

By venturing out, Permadi also entered to accompany Cintia into room 204. Actually it was outside the screenplay of Cintia and Herman, but Cintia had to do to convince Permadi of his ability to clean the Flower Hotel from the interference of subtle creatures.

Cintia checked the entire contents of the room accompanied by a frightened Permadi. The entire space was inspected by Cintia without exception. Starting from the room and also the bathroom.

“Permadi, is this room rutn cleaned?” ask Cintia.

“I-iya, Mak!” reply Permadi.

“Who cleans it?” ask Cintia.

“We pay cleaning service partners every two weeks to specifically clean this room,” replied Permadi.

“Why not have cleaning service here?” ask Cintia.

“They no one dared, Mak. Even every two weeks, we have to replace the new Cleaning Service company partner because the old partner refused to be invited to cooperate,” Permadi replied.

“Why did they refuse?” ask Cintia.

“The reason is not clear, but I suspect they are also bullied by-,” Permadi replied stammeredly.

“You just turned on the bathroom faucet, Permadi?” cintia asked because suddenly the sound of water came from the bathroom.

“No, Mother. I did not turn on the water at all,” replied Permadi.

“Try us to check there!” bring Cintia.

Permadi walked behind Cintia as the woman slowly stepped in to check the bathroom. And once the two of them had reached the front door of the bathroom, they were shocked because the sound of the water suddenly disappeared from hearing.

“Loh, how come his voice suddenly disappeared, Mak?” tanya Permadi was terrified.

“Custom, Permadi. His ghost ngajak acquaintance,” replied Cintia with ease.

“Mak, let's get out of this room immediately! Before he acted again,” invite Permadi with a frightened face expression.

Cintia also took Permadi out of the bathroom. Cintia was also careless to be in there because she felt her hair began to creep. The two of them finally left the second floor and walked towards the lobby. There's a chair there. The two of them sat facing each other to continue the conversation.

“Mak, how? Can Mak help us?” tanya Permadi who is still trying to neutralize his fear of entering into room 204 earlier.

Cintia at that time began to develop plans to get visitor data at the hotel. But, because he has already entered into the role he played, then he cannot immediately let go of it.

“What happened in room 204? Is there a murder or suicide there?” ask Cintia to Permadi.

Permadi was stunned to get the sevulgar question from the old psychic.

“Ti-never, Mak. There has never been a suicide or murder at this hotel, ” replied Permadi.

“OK. Guess what amazing event ever happened in room 204 it?” ask Cintia again.

Permadi tried to remember the incident in room 204 before the operation was stopped.

“Some time ago, we got a call from our jasmine hotel also in the suburbs to provide one room for two people. We also vacated room 204. An hour later came a man with his female partner who was ngefly into the room 204,” said Permadi.

“You received that guest overflow? Are you not suspicious of them?” ask Cintia.

“No! That is so common that it happens. Usually they are drunk on the discount and end of the stay at the hotel. We think the woman the man brought in was his date. After all we also could not refuse orders from our own superiors at that time,” replied Permadi.

“Lantas, what happens next?” ask Cintia.

After that we did not pay much attention to the couple of guests. It turned out from CCTV footage in the hotel lobby, half an hour later the man came out from inside room 204 and handed over his room keys to another man. So, who stayed in the room was the new person who came it,” continued the story of Permadi.

“Keep, what about the fate of the woman?” ask Cintia.

“Tomorrow, the man checked out first while the woman left her room at about one noon,” replied Permadi.

“Nothing happened to that woman?” ask Cintia.

“No!” reply Permadi.

Cintia closed her eyes at that moment as if she was thinking of something.

“How, Mak? Can Mak help us expel the spirits from this hotel?” ask Permadi again.

“Quiet, Permadi. I will try to help you. But, from the results of my recent exploration. Looks like I can't do it now,” replied Cintia.

“Continue, if it can't be as small, when?” tanya Permadi was a little disappointed.

“I need guest data of this hotel first because I have to repeat one by one that name so that the results are more optimal,” replied Cintia.

“If it's easy, Mom. I can give it to Mak right now. The book is on standby there. Does that mean Mak can do the ritual right now?” press Permadi.

“Can't, Permadi. I still have to take the names one by one at home. It takes a long time. If in the form of a file does it have data?” ask Cintia.

“File? Can you operate a computer?” tanya Permadi.

“You are troubling Mak? Mak taught one of Mak's students,” replied Cintia lying.

“OK, Mom. In addition to being written in the ledger, visitor data is also typed on the computer. Let Dini copy for Mak into the flash,” replied Permadi.

“Alright, Permadi. Come on, let's get the data now. Coincidentally I have to go somewhere else,” take Cintia.

“Come, Mak!” answer Permadi limp.

After that Permadi also told Dini to copy the data of the hotel visitors from the computer to the flash to be given to Cintia. Cintia was happy because he did not have to bother to get the data from Permadi. Once he got what he wanted, Cintia also paid to Permadi. Permadi, Dini, and Togar shake hands and kiss Cintia's hand. Cintia to feel uncomfortable with the attitude of the three of them are excessive.

Permadi drove Cintia forward.

“Mak, I wait for Mak's presence soon, yes?” permadi.

“Iya, Permadi. After I finish checking these data, I will soon hold a ritual at this hotel. Oh yes, tell his friend Early that do not be arrogant,” said Cintia.

“Which Early Theme, Mak? Togar?” ask Permadi.

“Not. The girl standing next to Dini,” replied Cintia.

“Chick??” The jewel was astonished by Cintia's reply as Dini was standing alone in the reception room.

Permadi wanted to cross-check Cintia's words, but Cintia had already walked a long way away from the Flower Hotel. The man looked towards Dini who was alone in his room. Realizing the irregularity, Permadi hurriedly left the hotel towards the parking lot.

“I'd better go to the hotel jasmine branch first. Than here I can overcome fear.” The lady spoke to herself in the car.

Just as the man was about to start the engine of his car, he saw a beautiful woman from the glass dashboard.

“loh, how come there's a girl in my car?” think Permadi.

Out of curiosity he turned to the back seat and how surprised the man was because he saw no one there.

“Ha-ha-ha-haaantuuuuuuuu ...,” screamed Permadi as he left his car.
