Back to Valeria
"Guard!"
There was a cry of a courier delivering a small cardboard wrapped in black plastic in front of the house. I frowned, feeling like I wasn't buying anything online, but I would try to see it. Half-run I walked to the front door.
The courier was standing in front of the house, looking at me for a moment and looking at the cardboard, "With Princess, here is Ma'am, the address?"
"Oh, that's right, Mom."
He handed me the little package, then told me to sign a paper as proof of receipt. I took the pen and put my signature on the paper.
"Thank you, Mom," I said.
"Yes, Mommy. Let's." Let's."
He continued the journey. There were many packages he had brought at the time.
I went back in holding Cantika's small cardboard box. My eyes were moved to see what the evidence was. Some medicine? Wh-wh-what for? Isn't she pregnant? If you need medication, should you go to the gynecologist? I suspect.
I looked at the sender of the package, then opened the internet, hoping to find his online store. A moment later the name of the store, matching the sender address.
This shop sells gynecological drugs, besides there is nothing he sells. I was surprised, there was also a seller who sold drugs like this. My stomach ached reading it. Is that Cantika to herself and her baby? It was true what Denis told me.
My heart rippled, annoyed. What does he mean he often wants to abort his contents? This package may have been mis-addressed, he must have forgotten. He's using an app that's already got an address, but it's God's way of showing me.
All right, tomorrow I'll drive you to his house. Justjust look. I kept the little cardboard in my room.
"There was a guest, who was Val?" Mom came out of the kitchen.
"Packaged sender, Ma. There's a package for Cantika."
"Ohh, yes, kirain Bu Rudi."
"Mom Rudi? Why would Miss Rudi come here, Ma?" I just want to know.
"Bu Rudi yesterday messages the same risoles Mama made arisan. When Mama tried to make it, she never tasted. He said it was good, so he ordered and Mama responded. Only 40 seeds. So light, assisted Bik Nah," explained Mama.
"Wuih, first order dong, Ma?" my words sparkle.
"Yes, here. I hope it fits on their tongue."
Mama took a large cardboard mica in the closet.
I know Mama just made an order for busyness, but just so happy. His hobbies are also shared.
"Val, Mama forgot to buy her sauces, the small ones, please dong buyin at the front minimarket," cried Mama from the kitchen.
"Yes, Ma." I took my motorcycle key and wallet.
Then, go to the minimarket and it turns out to be closed. I drove back to the supermarket a bit away from home. I want to buy soap and all. Arriving there, in front of the supermarket I saw a mother selling bananas while carrying her child sitting in the supermarket. I watched for a moment, then I continued my step inside. I remember Cantika, she had been given a responsible husband, and a child entrusted by God who was not grateful as well.
After finishing shopping, I approached the mother who was stroking her baby who was sleeping in a sling.
"Mother, how many bananas are there?" my question made him flinch.
"It's cheap Ma'am, twenty-five thousand" said the mother, calming her whining baby.
"Ooh, how many did you bring?"
"Just five combs, Ma'am. Heavy, so I just carry a little."
"I took all of them, huh?" I see the banana is nice.
Hopefully enough to carry on my motorcycle.
The mother was wide-eyed, "Oh, yes, Ma'am. Soon he wrapped the bananas into two big plastics."
I gave him three blue notes, and,
"The return, Ma'am," he said hastily opened his wallet.
"Ga got ma'am, make it adeknya," I said quickly.
"Oh, yes, Ma'am. How thanks. My sales have not been sold out all day muter-muter. Thank you, Ma'am," she said, stroking her baby who returned soundly after whining.
I nodded. I brought two big crackles, lucky to fit on my motorcycle. My heart was glad to help him a little.
At home, I put the bananas down. I don't want to be confused, I'm confused too.
"Is there a sauce, son?" Mama saw me coming.
"Now, Ma." I thrust a plastic filled sausage at Mama.
"Thank you, Son. Mama go into mika first."
I nodded then saw that their work was over. Now just wait for Bu Rudi to come.
Mama sat in the guest chair, unwind. He opened two large crackles on the table.
"Cock there are a lot of bananas? What's Val doing?" ask Mama wonder.
"So there's a sales person, Val pity me, so Val bought all of them."
Mama shook her head, "Yes already, Mama came out first, so it's not easy to rot."
"Excuse me....!"
"Bu Rudi, please come in. I'll get you the risoles first, it's already so."
"Emm that, Valeria bought it earlier. You're not doing anything, Miss Rudi?" said Mama while putting the cardboard mika.
"If I could buy bananas too, because I forgot to buy fruit." Ma Rudi smiled hoping.
"Ohh, hold on, Mom. I asked my son. How, Val? Miss Rudi wants to buy the banana?"
"Can" I replied.
"How much?" ask Mama to approach me.
"Whatever, Ma, how much." My flesh soul has not come out.
"How much does Bu Rudi usually buy." Mama also does not know apparently the price of bananas now.
"The sissy thirty thousand yes, ma'am. I'll just take four combs."
Mama nodded, then Bu Rudi opened his wallet, handed some money to Mama.
"Thank you, Miss Rudi."
"Together, Miss Reta, tomorrow I'll order again sometime. Bu Reta's made delicious, cheap."
Ms. Rudi said goodbye, then went home.
God answered me directly today.

The next day, after work, I headed to Denis' house with a cardboard package. I saw a lot of kids crowding around Denis' garage, what's up?
I got off the car. I approached the garage and read the banner.
Denis seemed happy to serve the children and some students who were there. He noticed my presence, then raised his palm telling me to wait for him. I nodded, I saw Denis's spirit wrapped the food, so that the ludes were not left, even some children looked disappointed because they ran out.
"Sorry Val, make you wait." Denis closed the garage.
"Ga nothing, Denis. Long time selling?" my many.
"Just yesterday it started, Val. Well, a little bit of part-time."
"Good, good selling too." I encouraged.
I didn't see Cantika helping Denis.
"Val, I'm sorry I haven't been able to return your money."
"Udah, don't think, tomorrow is easy about that," I said.
"Where's logic? I want to talk to you guys," I continued.
"Oh, yeah Val for a second."
He went in for a while, then Cantika came out from the inside, with Denis.
"I'm here to show you something."
I took the cardboard package, and I showed it to them. Cantika looks pias, surprised to see it, then looked down.
"What medicine is this, Cantika?!" I almost snapped it.
He just kept quiet, annoying me. Denis looked confused because he did not know the problem, but he just kept waiting for us.
"Say or do I open here?" my words gave him a difficult choice that was quite cornering.
He's still quiet, down.
"All right," I said.
I took the scissors in the bag and then I opened the cardboard. The contents are indeed a bottle of medicine with a description of the drug late to the moon.
"Aren't you pregnant? Why did you order drugs like this? What do you mean Cantika?" tanyaku.
"Cantika, you're outrageous!" Denis was angry.
"Pedications like these can make your womb defect," I said trying to give him understanding.
His eyes glazed over, then ran into the room.
"Sorry, Val." Denis apologized for his wife's behavior.
"Ga nothing, Denis. I'm the one who's sorry, my sister is like that, bothering you. From now on, keep an eye on him, will you, Denis?"
"Yes, Val. Thanks for reminding him."
"It's a good thing this drug was delivered to a previous home address, Denis."
Denis nodded slowly.
"Patiently, may Cantika change with your patience." I tried to give Denis a little hope.
"Yes, Val."
"I'll go home first, Denis. I want the afternoon. I'm out of the office, not home yet."
"Yes, Val. Thanks for taking the time."
I took the medicine bottle and went home.
