The Fortitude of a Mother
Ratna lost part 1

By noon, now Mirah was busy in the kitchen to prepare lunch, deftly he immediately prepared the ingredients to be cooked, this afternoon the mother of one child was going to cook potato chicken soup,tahu isi, and sambel wild mushrooms, which happen to be brought out of the mountain, wild mushrooms commonly called (supa rampak) in Sundanese, are very delicious when made sambal, indeed,the natural savory taste is very suitable cooked like that.

Mirah took the chicken breast, and then filtered after that the meat is finely chopped, then later Mirah took the carrot that has been peeled and then cut into small small dice, not forgetting the onion leaves are on display,then he mixed all the ingredients with seasonings that had been mashed before, which consisted of garlic, pepper and salt and a little flavoring and sugar, respectively,

The fingers lentiknya nimbly take a spoonful after a spoonful of minced meat dough and put it into tofu pong, after everything is finished then he steamed it, and then he steamed it,while waiting to know the contents are ripe and turned to ingredients to make soup, and that's how Mirah's activities this afternoon are busy, she did everything herself until it was finished and arranged neatly on the table eating, and so on,and just wait for everyone to have lunch together, usually after performing the Dzuhur prayer they will just eat.

"Have entered the time of Dzuhur, why Ratna has not returned 'yes," muttered Mirah, who continued to look back and forth towards the road that Ratna usually passed when she returned to school,Now his heart felt so restless because it was not usual for the child to come home late like this.

When Mirah was agitated, Moses and disah and Herman had finished performing Dzuhur prayer, while Rohanah? do not ask, the woman since a week ago has returned to the house of Mak nenah after the incident of persecution by her husband, the wife of the series Herman went without saying goodbye with a rumble of hatred in his chest, he said,as Herman grew more and more indifferent to himself, even he aggressively approached his legitimate wife, Mirah, and the man was also very busy seducing Ratna who now felt Herman was always away from him.

"You why 'mir?" seeing Mirah who continues to pacing back and forth turns out to arouse curiosity in the heart of the disah

"Emm..., this is my sister, Nana hasn't come home yet, when usually if the clock is like this the child is already with us, right,?" Mirah looked on disah, as if asking the good woman to acknowledge her words just now.

"Hmm, you're right" Gumam was cursed, whose heart was now troubled.

"Try on asking Neneng 'mir, '" Moses said

"Today Neneng did not go to school, but in the morning his mother came here to leave a letter for the teacher, he said the boy had a fever all night," said Mirah lethargic

"We better eat first now, Nana's problem later will follow him to school, who knows the child is having additional lessons," Herman gave advice

"Yes 'mir, dear to his food, later to the cold," disah added

With lethargy and uncertain feelings, finally Mirah took a meal, but in vain her taste is now gone, she just ate a bite even forced.

"I'm done, pamit ya 'sak, Mirah wants to go to school first Nana," with haste Mirah immediately went to school following Ratna

"Tu-wait mir!, I'm coming," Herman hurriedly finished his meal, then soon followed Mirah

***

With a quick step Mirah walked towards the school, so Herman who followed behind was overwhelmed by the footsteps of his wife

"Just as soon as you walk, wait for me,!"

"Why are you following me? let me take care of Ratna, I'm used to doing it alone" said Mirah ketus,

"Don't do it, Ratna is also my daughter" replied Herman curiously

"Give up" said Mirah at the end, it was not the time to argue! think Mirah.

Half an hour later the couple was forced to arrive at school, immediately they looked into the classroom Ratna, but it turned out to be nil, because all classes were empty, the more panic became, and the more,now we are heading to the teacher room.

"I'm looking over there 'yes, '" Herman said, asking his wife's approval

"It's up to you" replied Mirah short

With a quick step Mirah immediately headed towards the teacher's room...

"Assalamu'alaikum,"

"Wa'alaikumussalam" answered from within

"Eh,buk Mirah, come on in, please" said the friendly teacher, who happened to be the only one who had not returned

After being invited to sit down, without ado Mirah immediately spoke to the point.

"Once sir..," said Mirah after a long talk.

"And besides, for now there are no additional lessons," said the teacher added

Mirah bit her lip, she now felt really worried and very scared, not afraid of something bad befalling her beloved daughter.

"Sir, thank you for the time.Then I'll excuse you first," said Mirah, now he was really confused to find Ratna where else.

"Where else is Herman? he said he wanted to find Nana, but it was not clear that it was a person," muttered Mirah sebal

"Don't you...?"

Rush Mirah to where Herman is thought to be there

And it turned out that the assumption was very precise, he saw Herman's sandals outside Rohanah's house, the door was not tightly closed.

"Assalamu'alaikum, kang herman, Johanah!" Mirah called out the names of the two men but there was no answer

Mirah went inside, inside the house was very quiet.

"Where is Herman? he said he wanted to find Ratna," muttered Mirah annoyed

Mirah looked inward, but there was no one there, and then she decided not to care about what her husband did and refocused her search for Ratna,in a hurry he immediately came out of the house and again asked the surrounding residents, perhaps seeing Ratna.

However, Mirah did not get any information, because they did not see Ratna on average.

Is.deg...deg!

Mirah's heart was pounding, her legs were shaking she felt weak and unable to walk, she said,

Bruck...

Mirah collapsed sitting languidly on a vast expanse of grass behind the school

"Ratnaaaa, where are you naaak?" he said softly, with tears that had been welled up in the eyes.

When Mirah was trying to calm her heart a faint faint faintly heard the extremely crisp laughing voice of a woman, and it was like from the direction of the bush behind the mirah.

Mirah stood up then she stepped slowly, towards the bush

When she arrived, Mirah closed her mouth in disbelief, what she saw made her own shame

"Based on human beings there is no shame" he murmured

cynically

What Mirah saw was indeed a very embarrassing thing, there were two lovebirds, namely Herman and the middle spirit fondled, linking each other's fingers, the view was successful in making Mirah feel fed up.

"At this time, you had time to do perverted," Mirah sneered and then stepped foot away from there, without intending to disturb them at all,this time he was already masabodo with papun done by the man and Rohanah.
