BUNCHES

CHAPTER 27

"Yes.....!!!"

Mori's shout sounded very loud, as his body was pushed very strongly on the rocks located not far from the waterfall of her husband's old mansion.

Making Ujang flinch at his wife, "Mori....!!!"

Ujang jumped instantly, running fast looking from which direction the screeching sound just now, making him realize that he did not pay attention to his wife since arriving at his family residence.

"Mori..... Mori....!!!" yelled Ujang frantically looking for the whereabouts of his wife.

"Morii.....! Mak, sir, where was Ujang's wife?" tanyanya looked worried.

**

"Mr....! Amak....!! Ujang home....!!"

Ujang yelled from under the stairs calling Sida who was busy cooking in the kitchen.

His son's voice sounded faint-sayup until from the front of the rumah gadang who continued to call Sida.

"Maz.... Come home, Mom!" yell Ujang.

Sida stopped her activities in the kitchen, running towards the front through two rooms that looked very messy because of the dirty and clean cloth mingled.

Sida's footsteps were heard from the inside of the house with shiny vanyl wood floors. She looked for the whereabouts of her husband Datuk Uman who had not seen the top of her nose since.

"You are Uda!" (Where is my brother!) said Sida as she passed through their room.

Sida stepped out, down the stairs that were lined with paint without looking very shabby, which became the support of a rowdy house that looked like it would collapse if seen from the outside.

Sida's eyes were fixed on the figure of a beautiful woman, white smooth and clean. The oriental woman standing before him was 24 years old, turning her head with a smile.

Sida knitted her eyebrows together, looking fixedly at the beautiful girl standing before her, while asking, "Have you got up?" (Who are you girls?)

The beautiful woman took good hand of Sida, kissed respectfully the back of the hand that felt rough and wrinkled, while smiling kindly.

"I'm Nohara Edogawa. Just call me Mori, I'm Ujang's wife's son, Mother" he said politely.

React to the presence of the beautiful woman who claimed to be the wife of her bachelor child she rejected very rudely.

Sida's face that initially will smile, because it feels happy after hearing news from some of their relatives who reported that her bachelor child will return in a few days again makes her become disappointed.

Sida sat on a wooden reot chair located on the porch of the rumah gadang, just looking at the woman who was standing waiting for the existence of Ujang.

"Mano den's son?" (Where is my son?) ask Sida in a loud voice.

Mori looked nervous, seeing Sida who showed her dislike. He bowed, waiting for the presence of Ujang who left him to look for the existence of the Father.

Sida looked back at Mori, again asking, "Sia Namo you were?" (What's your name?)

Mori answered again with his head lowered, "Nohara Edogawa, Mother. Just call me, Mori."

Sida breathed a long sigh, grumbling in her heart, mourning Ujang who was the only child puppet for her family.

Sida's face that was no longer young, showed a very slick wrinkled line. Life is very mediocre as a farmer in a wide hilly area, even like a village left behind.

Arau, the name of Sida village that is very far from the city has extraordinary natural beauty, waterfalls, even known by various kinds of mystique and mystery. From tiger stealth, to honey bears that come out at certain times.

Sida is still waiting for her favorite son, without giving room for Mori, because he does not allow the foreign woman to enter his house.

Not long after they stayed, Ujang brought Uman who only used a torn shirt, even using a shabby hat, which was very dirty, shouldered hoe and sickle tied around his waist with a loop of rapia rope.

Sida saw the face of Ujang from a distance, stood up and then ran to welcome the beloved son with longing.

"Ujaaang dear child Amak....!!!" sida shouted while tightly hugging her son's body.

Ujang hugged Sida's body, kissed the Mother's forehead with great affection and longing. How not, it has been almost five years he did not return to leave the family to wander in the country of people.

Sida pinched the small belly of Ujang that was getting denser, even looking more handsome than before she went to Japan.

"Amak kiro and lupo jo, Amak! Supo Malin Kundang Hotel. Lah kayo ndakana jo Amak!" (Amak thinks you've forgotten the same, Amak! Like Malin Kundang, already rich forgot his mother) said Sida whispering.

Ujang laughed, heard Sida's speech, then approached Mori who had been standing in front of his family's residence.

Ujang introduced Mori to Sida, smiling faintly, "Include, Mak. This is Wife, Ujang. The real Japanese woman from Hiroshima" she said.

Sida smiled softly, neither welcoming nor giving her hand back to Mori.

"Masuak is Amak's bachelor son! But jan padiaan batino ko masuak ka your home! Rorak lo umah ko beko in bomb deck cimori ko!" (Enter the young son of Amak! But do not let this woman into our house, collapsed also our house later because it was bombed by Cimori) said Sida brought his son into his house that already looks very old.

Mori was just waiting for her husband Ujang who brought her into the house, without wanting to mince words or greet people who passed by the residence of Sida and Uman, without saying hello, because he saw a new person standing in front of the family home.

Mori's eyes were fixed on the figure of a very strange person, looking at him from behind the wall, seen since earlier looking at him with a sharp gaze.

"Who is he? Why is he like a thief? This is what I am lazy to come to a new area that looks calm but horror. How am I supposed to calm down if it's like this?" mori was still sitting waiting for her husband's presence.

Mori sings small in heart, looking at the village where her husband's family lives, and the natural beauty is very cool even very calm.

Back Mori's eyes felt someone following him, even felt closer so as to make his hair goosebumps.

"Aaagh. What was? Are there many ghosts? Hmm, where is that ghost. Also a prankster who wants to attract my attention. Or maybe it's the crazy guy who's never met a woman like me!" mori's laughter, a little comforting to yourself.

Mori walked down the road not far from the Ujang residence, heard the sound of the river flow that sounded from a distance, and very attracted his attention as a newcomer there, "Hmm.... it seems like my husband's hometown is very pleasant, and makes me feel at home here."

How surprised Mori when he saw the beauty of the waterfall is very refreshing, making him more comfortable there.

However, Mori unintentionally turned his head back for a moment....
