Sundari's Return

The next morning after breakfast, Doni and Lisa were preparing to go to Hendra's house.

“Come Mah we leave?” doni.

“Iya Pah wait a minute,” said Lisa who was polishing her face with makeup 

After dressing up, Lisa was ready to go to Hendra's house.

“Come on Pah, Mamah is ready,” invite Lisa.

They both came out of the room to their cars.

Arriving in front of the car, Doni and Lisa get into the car accompanied by their personal driver.

“Pak to Hendra's house,” said Doni who told the destination of the pedestrian.

“Good Sir,” said Mr. Soleh who started running the car.

The three of them went to Hendra's house.

On the way, Doni and his wife were having a casual conversation in the car.

“Pah, Mamah heard the doctor's explanation about the condition of Hendra's corpse. Why did Hendra die with a charade around his neck?” Lisa who re-digested Doctor's remarks on Hendra's death.

“Entah Mah, Papah did not understand why Hendra was like that, let's just say it was God's rebuke for him,” said Doni.

“Already Pah, you must eliminate your hatred of Hendra, however Hendra is the husband of Dina and now Hendra has received his punishment.”

“Iya Mah, forgive Papah. Papah was only upset when he heard Hendra's story from the cruel Toni Hendra to our son even though with all his heart Dina always helped Hendra, he said, Papah is very upset if my beloved daughter is hurt by an irresponsible man.

“Iya Mamah understood, I as her mother did not accept if my son was treated like that.”

“Already Mah, lazy papah to discuss the rottenness of Hendra.”

Not long ago they had arrived in front of the fence of Hendra's house.

Mr. Soleh pressed on the car horn, hoping Sundari came out to open the gate that was locked by him.

 After pressing the car horn repeatedly then Sundari out of Hendra's house.

Sundari walked towards the gate and opened the door for her parents.

After the gate was opened by Sundari Pak Soleh also run his car into the yard of the house.

Mr. Soleh also parked his car in the yard of Hendra's house after that Doni and Lisa also got off.

“Let's go in Sir and Mother,” said Sundari let them enter Hendra's house.

They both entered Hendra's house and sat in the living room.

Doni opened the conversation first.

“Begini Bi, there's something I want to ask Auntie. Did Bibi know Mr. Hendra closely.”

“What's wrong sir Doni,” said Sundari who pretended not to know.

“Begini Bi, oh yes if I may know Aunt's name, it's better to call her.

“Ya Sir, just call Bi Sun.”

Doni continued his intention to meet Sundari.

“Begini Bi Sun, maybe Bi Sun has not heard from Mr. Hendra himself, mr. Hendra was treated in a mental hospital because said the doctor who treated Hendra's attitude changed when he often went berserk and could even hurt people near him the hospital itself had contacted we are the closest family to Mr. Hendra. And we both agreed that Mr. Hendra be treated to RSJ. But a day in the care of a mental hospital pak Hendra died until now the hospital did not know why Mr. Hendra died. There is a charred scar on the neck of Mr. Hendra, well we mean to come here to ask if Mr. Hendra has a close family, he said, because Mr. Hendra himself who spoke to us did not have a family father and his mother has long died does Bi Sun know?” 

Doni who told me at length about Hendra and his heart's intention to meet Sundari.

Sundari began to answer questions from Doni.

“Truely by chance I know Mr. Hendra. Driver Mr. Hendra himself named Iwan is my neighbor in the village first, sir Hendra told Iwan to find a housekeeper and I happen to need a job. It turned out that after arriving here I met Mr. Hendra the son of the owner of the tea plantation that used to–,” Sundari story that stalled.

“Then Bi Sun parents sir Hendra himself is still alive?”

“Iya Pak Doni, Mr. Hendra's own parents are still alive in my village, coincidentally the father of Mr. Hendra, Mr. Gunawan is sick.”

“Alright if so, I've got information with Bi Sun. We as Dina's parents want to return the body of Mr. Hendra to the family and now the body of Mr. Hendra is still in the hospital,” explained again Doni.

 “We want to ask bi Sun to accompany us to bring the body of Pak Hendra to his village,” pinta Doni.

“Iya pak Doni I will help plan tomorrow I will go home to the village, want to meet my family,” 

“What is not today Bi Sun went home to the village and later Bi Sun will we deliver home with the body of Mr. Hendra in an ambulance,” advice from Doni.

Sundari did not give details about who he was, seeing Mr. Doni as Hendra's father-in-law who asked for help to him, Sundari finally agreed to their request to help them bring Hendra's body home to his parents.

“Then excuse me first to tidy up my clothes in the room sir,” Sundari said.

“Oh please Bi Sun we will wait here,” said Doni.

Sundari left the two of them in the living room and immediately went to his room to clean up everything he wanted to bring back to the village.  

An hour has passed Sundari was ready with his bag containing clothes and equipment himself.

“Pak Doni, I'm ready,” Sundari said carrying his bag.

“Then so let us take Bi Sun home,” Lisa said.

Sundari also walked to Doni's family car to pick up Hendra's body in the hospital.

Sundari who was already in the courtyard of the house locked Hendra's house and gave the key to Dina's parents.

Sundari started riding in Doni's car.

“Come Mr. Soleh we way to the hospital!” doni's orders.

“Good Sir.”

Finally they left Hendra's house and Sundari would not step on Hendra's house again for good.

On the way to the hospital, Doni opened a chat he was very curious about Hendra in his youth.

Sundari did not tell much about Hendra to Doni, because he realized that all their deaths were the work of Sundari himself.

Exactly 1 hour from Hendra's house they had arrived at the hospital that kept Hendra's body.

Doni and his wife entered the hospital, while Sundari and Soleh waited for the two of them in the car.

After waiting for some time in the car, Doni and his wife came back to them in the car.

“Come sir Soleh we leave,” said Doni.

“Good Sir,” sahut pak Soleh.

Mr. Soleh also turned on the engine of the car to go to the village, while Hendra's body was in the ambulance both cars went to the village.

The journey to the Hendra family place itself is not too far only takes approximately three hours.

Especially Mr. Doni who opened the conversation.

“Mbak Sun is indeed a neighbor sir Hendra? Ask Doni.

“Iya pack time first.”

“Oh yes means, Hendra is the son of a prominent person in his village?”

“Iya pack time first,” Sundari said briefly.

Doni who was not satisfied to know the information about Hendra also tried to ask for details with Sundari.

“What if I may know?”

“Pak Hendra sold all of his father's wealth to others, after which Hendra went from the village somewhere, to where, since that incident Mr. Gunawan's parents from Mr. Hendra sickly until now Mr. Gunawan suffered a stroke that caused him to be unable to walk only in a wheelchair,” Sundari explaining to Doni.

“Astagfirullah, it is really barbaric Hendra to his parents. So what does Aunt Sun know about Hendra? Doni asked back to Sundari.

“Actually sir Hendra once raped me when I was 17 years old know,” Sundari who told them both to fugitive Hendra.

“Astagfirullah, it's worth it now he's like this, this is karma from his past deeds. Already bi Sun Hendra has got his reward,” said Doni who was calming Sundari to tears.

  Inexhaustible to tell the ugliness of Hendra in his youth.

Three hours had passed and they had reached Sundari village, heading to Hendra's parents' house.

But in the middle of the road Sundari asked to be dropped here.

“My pack is down here only,” said Sundari.

“No papa Bi Sun we deliver Bi Sun to home,” Lisa said.

“No need Mom and Sir I get off here only my house is not far from here,” Sundari who refused to be known by others. 

Because Sundari continuously asked to be dropped there, they finally obeyed Sundari's request.

“Pak and Ma'am I say thank you first, just follow this road later father and mother will see a green house, that's the home of Hendra's parents, and,” Sundari who tells where Hendra's parents are.

“Good Bi Sun, has delivered us,” Lisa said.

Sundari walked into the forest, while the three of them continued their journey to Hendra's parents' house.

After traveling about 15 minutes to Hendra's parents' house.

Finally they reached Hendra's parents' house.

Initially both of Hendra's parents were surprised to hear ambulance sirens, but Doni as Hendra's father-in-law also explained his intention and purpose of coming to Gunawan's house.

After explaining the length and width of the people Hendra was very hit now Hendra came home only in the form of a body.

The crying at Gunawan's house was further broken when Hendra's body was removed from the ambulance.

All the villagers were very surprised because they had not heard from Hendra for a long time when he left this village.

Hendra's body was put in his house before the buried Hendra's body in the bath first, after that in the caravan and then sholatkan then buried.

An hour has passed stage by stage has been completed in the end Hendra was brought to his resting place.

Doni and his wife also participated in Hendra's funeral.

The villagers helped Hendra's funeral process, they brought Hendra services using keranda in the mosque.

After arriving at the local cemetery Hendra's body was then input keliang lahat.

Cries broke again by his mother Hendra saw their only child's wish had now been gone for good.

“After Ms. Hendra's departure, you know very well how mom felt when our only daughter left us, the heart of which parents are not broken and sad if the child he loves leaves us first,” said Lisa who tried to calm the heart of Hendra's mother.

Lisa hugged Hendra's mother, encouraged her and tried to calm her heart.

After the funeral was over, the two returned to the city.

While Sundari has been at his house in warm welcome by his small family.

Now Adit is two years old, Adit is very clever and can already call the word mother.

Saw eyeballs Sundari who glazed to see his son, his longing for Adit was not able to hold Sundari while riding Adit, Sundari also shed tears.

At that time Sundari was releasing longing with his son in the courtyard of the house accompanied by Baskoro.

“Kek thanks for taking care of Adit, as long as I go,” Sundari said.

“Iya Sundari, no need to thank, Adit was from a long time ago I considered as my own grandson, how is your task Sundari what has been completed?” ask Baskoro.

“Sundari is not ready Kek, just let everything run later on time that will answer all this, whether Sundari is with Rian or vice versa Sundari will be alone,” said Sundari.

Yellow dusk began to turn into ashes the sounds of nocturnal animals began to appear.

The quiet night in the hut house that Sundari was living in brought her own peace.

Even though only three in the small house made Sundari very happy.

That night Sundari invited Baskoro to talk while Adit was asleep.

“Sundari would like to say thank you very much to grandfather, if at that time Sundari did not meet with grandfather, I don't know maybe Sundari no longer exists in this world anymore.”

“Ndri my son maybe our meeting was arranged and only you were chosen to have even managed to learn the science of mangkijiwa itself. Because this science is not an arbitrary science many people who study this science but none of them managed to die, because this science relies on the inner strength that can control Durmo, because this science can control Durmo, the strongest is he who wins. That's how Sundari,” said Baskoro explained the origin of black magic mangkujiwa.

“And you were chosen to learn this black magic,” said back Baskoro.

“Iya kek Sundari will always remember messages from grandfather.”

“Let's sleep late tomorrow you'll go back to work on the tea plantation.”

“Good cake,” Sundari said go to his room. 

They both began to fall asleep in the middle of the night in the wilderness.

Only the sound of nocturnal animals accompanied their night in the hut house.
