MARRIED THIRTEEN WOMEN
The Same Car
The tense atmosphere is so felt in the living room in a house. Four men and one woman appeared to be talking stale for a moment to melt the atmosphere. Meanwhile in the living room, thirteen young women and one old woman were silent while watching the conversation from the living room.
"So you're from the embassy?" tanya Jiwo finally began to lead to the core discussion of the arrival of two guests, men and women. It is very clear from the attitude shown by Jiwo, if the man is impatient to dig up further information.
"Yes right, we are from the embassy" replied the woman, who was named Anita.
"And you're going to pick up my wife's wife to go back to her country?" jiwo asked again still in a relaxed mode.
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, as I informed your wife this morning, sir. Do you need a more accurate explanation?"
Jiwo looks mangosteen mangosteen then he shook his head. "No need, I understand enough. Then how do you know they're here?"
The woman again commented on her friendly smile and picked up the phone and showed Jiwo something. A post from no one on a social media account. The post was recorded the date where Jiwo at that time did a contract with his wife.
"Initially we didn't believe that any refugees were missing. After we investigated, we were convinced after several people informed about the fate of the woman. Of course we have people looking for the info until we see the post, and the rest of you will know what happened until we got to this place" Anita explained casually and convincingly. While the man named Ridwan only nodded his head as support if what his partner told him was the truth.
Jiwo also seemed to nod several times. The woman's words did look convincing but somehow Jiwo still hesitated to believe it. Jiwo looked at Mr. Lurah and Mr. Rt who had been silent. With the look in his eyes, Jiwo seemed to tell him that he needed the opinion of the person.
Mr. Lurah and Mr. Rt looked at each other and it seemed they also had no idea to just give an opinion. Anita's words are very convincing. They gave a sign that all the decision is in the hands of Jiwo.
"When do you plan to bring them home?" jiwo asked as if he would let his wife go home.
Anita and Ridwan immediately looked at each other and threw a smile for a moment and then looked back at Jiwo. Of course, the attitude of the two guests made Jiwo doubtful about this news. Jiwo really tried to find a gap that could be used as a tool to reject them.
"The plan is one week from now, because we also have to deal with other refugees, let it go the same way," this time Ridwan who spoke out loud and looked very confident.
Again Ridwan and Anita immediately reviewed the smile, then one of them opened his voice, "The conflict is still there but not as bad as it used to be, the government has also prepared a safe and secure place for the refugees. So you don't have to worry about their safety."
Jiwo, Mr. Lurah and Mr. Rt listened to the explanation of his guests carefully. Although Jiwo still hesitates, but he thinks his mind is completely dead-end. He found no gaps at all.
"Well, I'll talk to my wife first. In any case they are still my responsibility here," said Jiwo sound resigned.
Ridwan and Anita smiled. Then they got back into another conversation.
When the atmosphere of the living room was tense, in the living room, Mother told her daughter-in-law to go to the stall because the sugar was running out. Arum, Aluna and Alifa decide to go to the stall. Not only buy sugar, Mother also told them to buy gas, rice and some other needs.
Arum, Aluna and Alifa came out from the side door. When they saw the car parked in front of Jiwo's house, Arum's forehead immediately wrinkled.
"I think I know this car, like I've seen it," Arum said as he continued to stare at the car used by two of his guests.
"See where? On road? Naturally, this car is a lot," said Alifa.
But Arum kept thinking until a while later his eyes turned. "Lun, isn't that the car the boss used to kidnap us? We saw that car in the market, remember?"
"Well!"
