The smell of summer. The smell of grass that has just been cut, children who cheerfully play traditional games, mothers who joke with a discussion that is notoriously cravings of course. A view full of typical rural tranquility. But not with me. Because it was a little shaken by the incident I just experienced. Without a second thought I dragged the foot that still lost half of its strength to catch up with the only person I could trust.
"Ju yu ayu.". I screamed gasps at a woman with a navy-colored long blouse.
"Why did you come here??.". Tanya ayu astonishment.
I can barely answer even a single question. Do not talk, the breath feels cringe. Immediately I set the breath that had exploded to try to arrange the words per word. Meanwhile, across from this simple stall, there are several pairs of middle-aged women's eyes that narrow like journalists looking for news, by trying to read the atmosphere to make a story that they think is fun to spread.
After feeling a bit calmed down, I began to string words together. I sipped a bottle of mineral water given ayu. Enough to make my wet throat that had dried up because of panic. Stupid time with the old braggart on the opposite end who was staring at us both cynically. Until one of them crossed the road to get to us. I don't know what the woman with the face judes even seem annoying it from us.
"God! Lackeys. You don't know yourself. Returning from college in the city instead of bringing benefits even bring lanangan (men) who are not muhrim. Her style is wearing hijab but her behavior nggilani (disgusting) !!,". Hardik those mothers.
His words were sharp beyond daggers. It's so itchy I heard it. I want to sew her mouth that hurts that feeling.
"This is Temen ayu from the city of Bu RT, he who passed out in the coffee garden owned by the late Bu dance. It's also the mother's husband who howled she kept brought to the house ayu.". Answer ayu calmly without looking at the person who rebuked her.
"Chhhh" the mother replied as her eyes were red as if she wanted to be dislodged from her place.
I was amazed by the answer. Really did not want to reply to such hurtful words, and again he answered them very dexterously. But the answer that seems not to make him satisfied, making the mothers who turned out to be the mother of RT is getting heated up.
"Basic hypocrite chick! Watch out for you when you get pregnant first. I will drive your family out of this village !.". His face with a high tone and red eyes like a lion intimidation that is threatening its prey.
"Look Mom, my mom never taught me such bad things. God willing I will take good care of my character,". Answer ayu with a wry smile.
"Based son of a maid ja..." The hardship is not finished because it was cut because I was tired of hearing it.
"Stop!!! Dear Mother, I hope you can sort and choose what you say. Even if I intend to be evil with ayu let me be responsible. But I beg you to keep your dirty mouth so as not to arise slander !!!.". Serakku jerk with a tone that is no less high.seraya kicked down the table in front of me made all buyers of food stalls that at the same time sell coffee is shocked and immediately look towards the commotion we made.
Looks like my hardship worked. The proof is that he fell silent and went to pitch by still putting on a face. What a shitty face. Heading towards the horde who had been hungry waiting for the hot news from their leader.
"Son, you.". said ayu lirih. I haven't finished the sentence before.
"Enough. Let's go home.". Cut me while walking away with a hand that tightly grasps the tiny finger of ayu.
After that there were no words from me or from Ayu. We dissolve in each other's minds. Especially I am still very hurt with sharp scorn from mothers who turned out to be true she is RT's mother in the area. After entering the house we continued to sit on the living room sofa. Stay in silent mode. Until I finally couldn't stand it...
"You're why the hell was it. That old Bangka has gone too far, but you are so rich. You're just as comfortable as that rich smile.". My words that dare to hold back want to voice my frustration at ayu who is just silent in being treated like that.
"Sssstttt don't get rich, no crime can be avenged. Let them want gosipin whatever it is up to them. Remember educated people can see from the way they talk and solve problems. The important thing is that we are not rich in their words. Really no,". He answered while sticking his index finger on my lips in addition to his smile that nourishes the heart, instantly lost all my emotions like a loss of nothing. Well damn why suddenly become mute again me, my inner.
"Assalamualaikum mbul, the prince Didik come so welcome with festive,". Greetings from strangers disperse the romance of both of us. Why is there always a disruption. No human being does not like to see me happy, I grumbled in my heart.
"Eh, waalaikumsalam, come in here sit down first.". Sayu let his guests in.
"Son, this is ayu's cousin who was this morning ayu storyain. His name is a cricket.". Ayu continued accompanied by a small laugh.
"This is his candidate the pennant? The handsome is also, uh but still the handsome I nding, hehehehe.". The drill.
Ayu reflex pinched the shoulder of the protege. The owner of the shoulder seemed to grimace in pain. I frowned hearing his words. A candidate? Is it as soon as news spreads? How exactly did the news of my match and ayu spread? Ah instead of thinking unimportant thoughts right now I better try to enjoy all this.
"Oh yes Didik, I am the son of mahesa. Call me son.". My reply introduced himself.
"Hehehe started later deck malem son sleeping in my house huh. I am also at home alone so if there are new friends so there are people to talk to. Hehehe, man,". Said Mas Didik.
"I'm sorry it's a hassle.". My answer is a little sad.
"Kok you call him deck anyway dik? What is your sister. Your son is older than you.". Sayu interrupts not accept by the way you call me. Hehehehe Actually I do not mind it but ayu who seems not to accept it.
"Lho forgot to you mbul, you are my cousin's sister so automatically your candidate is also my cousin's sister. Piye knows?,". Obviously with Didik.
"Beselah Kowe aja dik, I want to finish his clothes mas men first,". Tukas ayu while glancing at me.
A shirt? I might have a shirt here. I'm also stranded here not because of purpose. Lho? I didn't even realize that the shirt I was wearing wasn't my shirt the last time I came home from here and passed out in the middle of the wilderness. Is it possible that ayu is replacing my clothes ?? Hiiiiii, it's stupid why my shadow is so messy like this. Maybe I'll ask you next time.
"This is your dress, I'm ready, but are you strong enough to take it?", asked me with a backpack.
"I'm strong if it's only this way, but I don't have any clothes here?, yu?,". Tukasku.
"Yesterday fit in the market ayu buyin you a few sets for you. You know you need to. And also, do not need to be replaced, ayu sincere.". Sneakily.
"Our mosquito repellent.". The student who had just listened to the chatter of the two of us.
"God, I'm sorry I forgot you were there, hehehe.". Sayu was interspersed with laughter from the three of us.
"Please New partner, want to continue uwu uwu his? No wait,". Ask the protege with a flirtatious smile teasing us.
"Don't look at it, I'm amused myself hahahaha,". I said a little bit. It turns out that the person is very cool to make me who in fact other regional people quickly familiar with it.
"Yowes, let's go to my place. Yu I'm going to take your husband first. Oh yes greetings also for budhe Tutik.". He nudged my shoulder a code mark. Ayu who heard that only chuckled a little by clenching her hands towards the crybaby Didik mas.
"Come on, man,". My answer is to say that Didik. Which followed a nod by him.
"Assalamualaikum". our greetings together while walking away from the house ayu.
"Waalaikumsalam, dadaaa.", replied ayu waving her hand while throwing a smile. The most beautiful smile that always keeps me clingy.
We finally went to the house of Didik. The house that will shade me for a while as I think of a way to uncover everything. That is uncovering the betrayal that one of the parasites did there. I'll finish your mission first, Dad. Definitely !!! just wait for my arrival fake family.!!!
Seriate....
