Silence Cupu, It's the Queen
Chapter 41 Meet the man

Ratih Prameswari goes to the night market with Dimas,

They walked both through the path in the village which is still in the form of soil and rocks. The sound of crickets sounded loud and melodious like the singing of nature. Sometimes the two joked about how their childhood used to be who often spent time playing in the dam Mr. Salam.

"remember not Tih when we were found out, Mr. Salam was about to steal a catfish in a pool that was being cleaned ?" said Dimas jokingly.

"very big dong, and not the catfish we get but our feet are sick because of catfish patil "Ratih replied while laughing amusedly because of their childhood innocence.

"Trus pak Salam chased us until we had to meet under the bridge." said Dimas again

"Where's the stench again hahaa..." Ratih laughed amusedly remembering the memory of the time.

Ratih and Dimas as a child are two of the most violent mohibs in the village, Actually Dimas is the culprit but Ratih is always dragged in every idea of Dimas's naughty ideas, the introverted base of Ratih is very difficult to blend with the social environment, but Dimas can make Ratih feel free to express.

***

Two sohibs who became warehouses confided in each other. When Dimas was scolded by his father, he often ngajak Ratih fled to the hill behind the village and then poured out all his uneg-uneg, he said, and the character of Ratih makes Dimas entertained because the word Ratih when advising is very soft but firm, so Dimas only according to the words and suggestions input from Ratih.

Ratih feels most comfortable when hanging out with his childhood peers in the village. When at school or outside the village Ratih more often feel inferior (lower self) because of his appearance is very cute plus introvert personality (closed) that makes the impression Ratih is a girl kuper (less association), which makes the impression that Ratih is a girl,

Whereas Ratih includes up to date, silent Ratih following the development of music today, following the development of viral news as well, it's just that Ratih's taste is very conventional aka that's it. Dressing doesn't have to follow fashion trends but that makes it comfortable .

***

Even Ratih understands very well what his college friends discuss when they are gathering or hanging out, but Ratih chooses to just listen without feeling the need to hang out, because if the existing Ratih nimbrung will only be more and more bully because of the appearance of a cupu that does not support the intelligence of his brain.

Only a handful of people can see the real beauty of Ratih behind the appearance of cupu when on campus and that makes Ratih have many secret admirers. Although Ratih himself was unaware of that.

Arrive at the market at night after walking for 10 minutes,

Ratih and Dimas first bought grilled corn, then went around looking at the entire night market while enjoying the warmth of corn burned with butter and smeared with spicy sauce.

"Eh Ratih, we bought a couple yuk bracelet !" Invite Dimas when he sees a seller who sells a variety of young accessories such as name carving rings, pair bracelets, pair necklaces with pendants that can be divided into two.

"Can. but you pay xixixi.." said Ratih .

Then the two decided to buy a pair bracelet engraved with the word "Best friend".

After buying a bracelet and trying out various rides of the game, Ratih and Dimas decided to go home soon because they had shown at 21:40 and according to their promises when saying goodbye with father and mother that both would go home on time.

***

On the way home, Ratih realized that tonight is the night of the full moon, immediately the mind bounced back to the old days when performing ritual ceremonies with the Syailendra dynasty..

"Dimas... do you believe that the moon has not changed since antiquity until now ?" ask Ratih.

"Of course the moon has changed a lot Tih, the moon that is now too often hit by a meteor so it must be different from the moon in the past that may still be smooth hehehe .." answer Dimas according to his logic.

"Ish you know, I mean the Moon is always present with the same position in all dimensions of life, so it could be when we look at the current moon our ancestors are also looking at the same thing.. You know what I mean, right ?" said Ratih turned to Dimas who was walking to his right.

"Don't understand haha." said Dimas laughing.

But what was said by Ratih is true, because now in a different era dimension there is a husband and wife who are looking at the moon from the ritual place of the night of the full moon.

***

After Dimas came home, Ratih did not go to sleep but fell on a long bench in the front yard of the house. Somehow the atmosphere of the night feels very cool and shady.

A bright moon and a sprinkling of stars dotted the sky, momentarily sinking Ratih Prameswari into questions about his destiny.

"Where do I know when to start fixing destiny ?" muttered..

Klesak klesik himself in his mind, without realizing there are three men standing near him..

"Excuse me deck.. Is there a father ?" said one of the men startled Ratih.

Traini scanned quickly the three men. Two men with the same appearance, a stout body, sturdy, athletic, with a serious look that is like a hard smile (similar to a dry kanebo.) wear all-black clothes like a bodybguard.

While one man stood in the middle, he was very dignified, handsome, dashing, hair restored with dark brown eyes, a sharp nose and a firm lip line, highlight the eagle-like sharp eyes with masculine eyebrows. Like his man was also diligent shaving his mustache, Klimis maximum plus his body is huggable wrapped in a collar t-shirt with a blue jeans jacket wearing pants material and slippers of leather.

In Ratih's assessment the man in the middle was definitely the big boss.

"There are om. for a moment I call the father " said Ratih hurry into the house.

***

The man's gaze could not be separated from Ratih Prameswari, his bead followed the movement of Ratih Prameswari from the yard to enter the house.

The man just remained silent expressionlessly, yet in his heart felt something strange.

"As if I've seen him." murmured softly.

"Is there anything strange ?" ask one of the guards.

"Ah no. It's just my guess" a brief smile as she answered the bodyguard's question.

***

After the three men sat in the guest room facing Mr. Yitno, Ratih immediately entered his room, he immediately cleaned his body and tried to rest..

Ratih Prameswari's heart beat like dancing nari tickle but I don't know what the name of the feeling is and why he felt it when his bead locked a split second with a foreign man guest his father.

Ratih does not want to think about things that are uncertain. But to be honest I figure the foreign man is quite disturbing his mind..

"He's like a family so you can't." murmured Ratih Prameswari.

"It's only been this once, right ? there's no way I'll ever see that guy again." still talking to myself in his daydreams

"I'd better focus on education alone so I can become a graduate and successful woman.." Determining his determination when the eyes began to close brought Ratih Prameswari to dreamland.
