Doctor Naura
Chapter 38 Searching for the Infidelity
The time Annisa was waiting for arrived. She had been bathing since an hour ago and was wearing a beautiful, white beaded ping dress, pocketed in front. Heloo Kitty's character cloth mask hangs around her neck. He immediately stood up from the terrace seat when he saw the car bang Zamy into the yard.
"Oom home, om home hore om pulaaang...." He cheered cheerfully.
"Nisa don't come near, you won't see." Nindya's mother pulls Nisa who is walking closer to Zamy's bang car. Bang Zamy down. Nisa picked him up cheerfully. I'm starting to have rivals now. The cheerful little girl kissed the hand of bang Zamy, bang Zamy stroked her head.
"Have taken a shower, the thing is, it's so pretty in a beautiful dress." Bang Zamy clasped Annisa's hand walking towards me.
"Wait with aunty yes, om shower first later we'll look for takjil...." Bang Zamy spoke to Nisa and kissed me on my forehead.
"Hi dear, you are so beautiful.." I just smiled pretty. Bang Zamy then went inside the house. I braided Nisa's long hair.
"What will you buy to open the fast?" I asked Nisa who was humming small in joy.
"Many aunts. Want to buy gelatin same chocolate, same pempek, same ice cendol..., samaaa... let alone yes?" He paused for a moment looking at me.
"Nisa likes to eat a lot of food that is often delivered oom time in the garden, but do not know what its name is. Nisa just used to eat mother's dishes, boiled bananas, boiled sweet potatoes, fried breadfruit or bala." The five-year-old explained. I immediately finished braiding her hair, then hugged her tightly once.
"Now if Nisa wants something just say the same aunt." I whispered in his ear.
"Thank you aunt...." Nisa smiled happily.

Five minutes waiting for bang Zamy has come out with a fresh face again. He dressed in a long Chino creampie with a white collared shirt.
"Let's buy some takjil." Nisa stood up to see the presence of bang Zamy. Bang Zamy smiled at me.
"okay.... Looks like she's hungry already, kid?" Bang Zamy reaches Nisa's hand towards the car. I went back to the room to get my wallet, then came out again and closed the door. Before riding in the car I called Nindya saying goodbye.
"Hemzzz..., if there's already om, the tantenya left behind ya...." I glanced at Annisa who was already sitting sweetly smiling widely.
"Hihiiii.., sorry aunt. Haha...." Nisa laughed in silence as she closed her mouth. He was embarrassed to show his toothless three as a result of mostly biting sugar cane time in the garden.
"Tomorrow if you work, auntie no longer wants to play with Nisa ah." I pretended to sulk.
"Who would play with a chatty aunt." Joking, bang Zamy ganged towards me. I pinched her left arm, she grimaced a little and then raised a smile.

It did not feel like we had finally reached the front street of the Jamik Pangkalpinang mosque, although in a covid-19 atmosphere, various nondescript snacks still filled the streets of this city. Bang Zamy parking near the pharmacy 24 hours. Then we walked quite far towards the Jamik mosque because the road was jammed. Left right there are many irregular parking vehicles. The parking attendant only appears when the driver wants to leave, not when parking. Bang Zamy swiftly held Nisa's hand in the crowd, yet he did not forget me. I let him walk in front. Sometimes I hold my finger or my arm.
"We're looking for lemang tape baby." Bang Zamy talk to me. I just nodded. From season to season food made from glutinous rice, onion seasoning and coconut milk, baked in bamboo with coated banana leaves become the mainstay menu when breaking. In addition to lemang bang Zamy very fond of martabak Indian curry.
"How many glue are there?" I asked when it came to the lemang seller.
"Twenty-five thousand sir. Uh new hostess huh? Usually the newlyweds are still there inai inai so...." The seventy-year-old seller replied, asking when he saw this in both of our hands. Some visitors to this roadside ramadan market were also many who noticed us. Probably because it still appears in both our palms and fingers. Some people who knew him immediately greeted him kindly.
"Yes, wait, eh newlyweds right?" Mother's curious.
"Yes buk." Bang Zamy replied briefly. She looked at me, smiling.
"This is her sister? Her sister is beautiful...." The mother was still talking while cutting both sides of the bamboo with her agility.
"Victory buk." I'm the one who answered.
"Owh yes niece. Pantes is like a girl. Eh this is a double limp, how many packs do you want?" The mother of the seller asked again.
"Same." Bang Zamy replied. The grandmother then wrapped two sticks of lemang that had been cut with two packs of glutinous rice tape, then packed in a food box. After we finished paying, we looked for another menu. Nisa actually bought quite a lot of snacks. I followed his wish to remember he rarely got a lot of food and delicious. If he grows up, he will change.
"Nisaa.... Nisa yaa....? Annisa's son Nindya and Rio huh....?" Suddenly while we were waiting for the ulek pecel, came a middle-aged woman approaching.
"Nisa's a big girl now, son. It's for a snack." The woman gave him twenty thousand dollars. But Nisa bengong looks at me and bang Zamy alternately. Because Nisa did not budge to take the money, the woman slipped into the front pocket of the dress that the beautiful girl was wearing.
"You don't recognize grandma? You were a kid then. And grandma could never meet you. Your mother won't let you continue." The mother spoke with hospitality which in my view was 'too forced'.
"Sorry mom, whose mom?" I hugged Nisa. His head touched my chin.
"Oh yeah this must be Naura's doctor and this is Zamy's doctor who owns Honey Bee Clinic huh? I'm Rio's mother, Nisa's grandmother." The woman seemed to be shaking hands with bang Zamy. Bang Zamy cupped both palms together.
"Sorry mom, virus season."
"Eh yes.
"When will we go to Grandma's house?" The woman returned again. Me and bang Zamy looked at. Pecel ulek is done. Bang Zamy paid for it.
"Sorry ma'am, excuse me we're going home." I clasped the hand of Nisa who was still walking while looking at the old woman earlier.
"Shortly a doctor. Is it true that Nindy's real son, Mr. Ram, director of the general hospital?" The woman I didn't know her name was walking quickly.
"Lacking to know mom. I'll just ask the director." Bang Zamy started to dislike me, he clasped my right hand and took over holding Annisa. We passed towards the car ignoring the pretentious lady just now. There are many modes of crime in this day and age.
"Who's om, auntie? Whose grandma was that?" Nisa asked with a puzzled look.
"Maybe people misunderstand you dear." I answered. We're back in the car. But when I was sitting in the car, I briefly saw Irwan talking to the woman who was familiar earlier. It was impossible, he should have been in prison, and I got out of the car immediately, but no one saw the man anymore. Is he so similar? I'm ingrained.
"It looks good to see Irwan earlier." I explained to bang Zamy who was astonished to see me suddenly get out of the car.
"Maybe I saw it wrong." Bang Zamy spoke to calm me down.
"Maybe bang." I sit back. My brain is still reflected in the flash of a male face that is very similar to Irwan. I tried to shake it off. But the shadow appeared many times. Then still in my confusion, we finally came home with our first fasting tipster. Annisa started humming cheerfully. She holds a beautiful gelatin with the character of a fish and a turtle. Bang Zamy and I felt his happiness.
