The Treaty of Invisibility

The Treaty of Invisibility
Clammy


Life in the village is good, peaceful, peaceful lohjinawi. Culture, customs and culture are still very thick people live with respect, mutual respect, mutual help to create the meaning of gotong royong. Therefore, the phrase gotong royong was created from community life in the village.


In the city whose name gotong royong is almost no longer seen, the citizens are each busy with their world and rarely socialize with neighbors especially with other residents. Lah wong fence his house alone high and closed as if the right front neighbor left should not see it, hikhikhik...


In the city there are times when neighbors and citizens gather face to face only when there is one of the residents of the house who died or when invited to know the rest they are more fun to stay silent in the city home instead of sitting chatting in a patrol post.


But maybe not all of the culture is like that, maybe there are still city residents whose lives still have gotong royongnya but somewhere.


Even if there are still gotong-royong in the city, the settlement may still be dominated by local residents. Is there still gotong royong in your town?


\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=


........... But unfortunately the worst conditions live in the village in terms of gunjing-gunjing residents in the village are the most superior than the residents in the city. In the village do not need to use social media anymore, just from mouth to mouth also in a day the village already knows all. Usually while nyari flea tuh!


As in the village where he lived Kosim, starting from the one-man shop in the stall, now the whole community finally heard the news about Kosim doing monkey dispensation.


And unfortunately again the news along with real events that befall the citizens. Some people feel that they have lost money mysteriously.


"I lost money last night when it was stored in a locked drawer, the next morning when you want to shop fitting counted less than two hundred thousand sheets." Said the mothers while shopping at the stall.


"Lah, that means the same thing last night. The night before going to bed my husband gave me five hundred for shopping, I put it on a violet table, uh the next morning when I took only four pieces," said the other mothers.


"If I had just been discovered last night. I remember the money from the results of selling two tons of grain and just received five million pas no kuran and no more. And obviously the money I have counted again before I save it. When you want to use every less than five sheets, who else turns if not people mengepet?!" Said Ibu Denok ketus.


As a result, inhumane accusations were crowded towards Kosim who had previously been rumored to perform the pranks. Now the news of Kosim undergoing a monkey bug breezes faster. The name Kosim went viral in the middle of society despite being secretly and hidden.


His conscience again in the village did not know the news "HOAX" his people will swallow the news as sure and true news. Though if traced they will answer, he said, said the anu, the anunya asked said the anu again and so on until the anunya anu again.


Like falling on a ladder, the names Kosim and Arin as included in the list of exiled villagers. Finally Kosim and Arin also heard the news is no longer from Arin when in the shop but heard it directly from Mak Ijah if he was being the talk of the surrounding neighbors who accused him of being doing a betrothed.


"Sim, I heard from people saying that you were having a monkey trip, is it really Sim?!" Tanya Mak Ijah held her sewot.


Kosim sighed heavily, himself also angrily feeling vilified like that. Then inevitably Kosim also explained everything to Mak Ijah who had been considered as his own parents.


"For God's sake, Mommy, I tried, I would do it, but the ritual failed. And until now I've never made money that way, Mom..." Emotional Emotional Empty Light.


Arin who was sitting next to him just quietly listened. Wanting to defend her husband but not doing it because she felt entitled to explain and knew everything was only Kosim himself.


Arin, who was also initially consumed by the gossip of the people in the stall until he left the house, was finally able to understand the truth after his brother explained and gave him understanding when meeting him at Lulu's house while on his escape.


"If you believe in Sim, but how to explain it to them. Mum is also angry if someone accuses you of mopping, because she knows exactly how you are." Said Mak Ijah starting to glaze over.


"It could be yes, Sim!" Sergeah Mak Ijah was a little flabbergasted as getting an answer from the slander against Kosim.


"How can you prove it? While people know you did," asked Mak Ijah in a trembling voice.


Kosim was silent for a while, his mind floated around guessing there must be people who really do undergoing the exercise but who, he thought.


Kosim leaned his head and looked up at the ceiling of the living room imagining the houses around him that look suddenly bright and suspicious in a few weeks. But dead-end, he is unlikely to suspect or accuse without any evidence.


"Change Dul, Mas. Yes ask Abah Dul for help!" Suddenly Arin exclaimed a hopeful sumringah.


"This must be revealed immediately by Sim, before the citizens really accuse you and are angry" said Mak Ijah.


Although widespread news outlets accused Kosim of performing the bribery, no one has come to his house to hold him accountable for a charge he never committed.


"If allowed to drag on it is not impossible the unrest of the citizens will be easily ignited into emotions when there is someone who provokes it. And it could very well turn into an anarchist that could even threaten the safety of my life" Kosim thought.


A few moments of silence. The look on Mak Ijah's face still looks sad worrying about Kosim and his family.


"Sim, if according to your mother you should, Arin and Dede temporarily stay at Mahmud's house again until the susana here returns to normal," Mak Ijah said breaking the silence.


"Yes Mas, right advice mom should we stay there first," said Arin.


Kosim was silent for a while, looking like an objection to Mak Ijah's suggestion. Though deep in his inner advice Mak Ijah was right, but somehow he felt very heavy and reluctant to stay at his sister-in-law's house. There was a feeling like preventing him from being strong enough to not stay there.


"Yes Mak, later I will talk again with Madam Dewi and Mas Mahmud," said Kosim did not want to make Mak Ijah disappointed.


"Yes, my mother came home first, yes" said the mother standing up.


"Dedeee.. let's salim first with Uyut. The mouth wants to go home," Arin said to Dede as he reached out with Dede's hand leading him to salim.


Now the complexity faced by Kosim changed again to face the slander of the village. So many problems happened to him it seemed like all those problems to make him despair and kill himself.

Musings:


Desperation is an emotion or feeling characterized by a lack of hope, optimism, and passion. A person who experiences this condition often has no hope in life, he has given up and does not have the confidence again to change for the better.
