Before the dawn of the adhan reverberated, Bi Eni got up and went out to go to the bathroom. After that, he did not sleep anymore. But went to see Karina in her room. After making sure Karina was still sleeping soundly, Bi Eni again closed the door carefully. Afraid that a small sound would wake Karina up because during her stay in the village, Karina had trouble sleeping.
Bi Eni was surprised when she saw the black shadow that stuck out on the sofa seen in the living room. Bi Eni calmed her chest which was beating very fast as her hair was goosebumps. His mouth shut with his own hands so as not to make a sound that would wake Karina up.
Because the living room is dark, it is not so obvious that it is visible there. In a single glance, it would look like something dangling from the sofa. Only after paying close attention in a few moments did it finally appear that it was a pair of legs with dark brown material pants with shiny black pantofel shoes on both feet.
After successfully calming himself that what he saw was really a human body, bi Eni walked over and picked up the wooden stick that was in the basket on the side of the door. He lifted the wooden stick with both hands and prepared to strike it hard at the target that had been locked in his eyes from the beginning.
Bi Eni could clearly hear the sound of a smooth snoring. That means the owner of the leg is sleeping soundly. Bi Eni finally decided to go back to the room to pick up the cell phone to find out who was asleep on the sofa. Joni said that the house is safe from burglars because it uses the best keys that are very difficult to pry.
After getting her phone, bi Eni returned to the living room. He carefully highlighted the person's face with his phone screen. His wooden stick he held with one hand.
"Mr Bhishma?" Bi Eni muttered in surprise when she recognized Bhishma's face. He stopped and looked. Will he choose to tell about the coming of Bhishma or pretend not to know?
Cellphone ringing. And a message from Joni explains it all.
Bhishma could be in that house because Nadia had allowed it. Nadia has made sure that Bisma has received the appropriate lesson. With that eventually Bi Eni could take the decision to help out this time around. After all, Karina actually also needed her husband at times like this. Both are young, of course still need to learn a lot bitter sweetness of life.
Carefully Bi Eni woke up the Bhishma.
"Bi Eni." Bisma was surprised to see Bi Eni.
"The mood for Karina is still not good. If you meet him at this time won't be good." Say Bi Eni slowly.
"Then I have to how bi?"
"Sir better go to Joni's house first. I'll arrange to meet you at the right time." Bisma did not feel surprised when bi Eni mentioned Joni's name casually. He had heard from Nadia that bi Eni was his childhood friend, so Joni was also a friend of Joni in the past.
"When bi?" Bisma asked impatiently.
Bi Eni smiled. He knew that Bhishma actually loved Karina. But why did Bisma dodge him in front of others and also hide a woman behind Karina? Bi Eni really could not think of the reason for Bhishma.
"Every morning Karina would go for a walk. Yesterday we were walking in the fields and son Karina was very happy. Sir can wait for us there. When the time is right, I'll leave Karina's son with you. You can apologize and give him an explanation. I hope that reason is pretty good." Said Bi Eni staring seriously at Bhishma.
At first, Bisma rejected the idea. He couldn't wait to explain to Karina. But after he thought about it, bi Eni's idea was better.
At least, the distance between the house and the swah is quite far. And Karina definitely had nowhere to avoid it. So how much Karina refused to listen to her explanation, Karina still had to hear it because Karina had ears that were still functioning properly even though those ears were covered with hands. Different again he forced Karina in this house at this time. Karina obviously avoided it and locked the room in the end. That's not gonna be good.
"All right then. I'm going to Uncle Joni's house." Bhishma stood up and dragged her body out of the house. Then start the car and go je Joni's house.
After Bisma left, Bi Eni immediately went to the kitchen to cook. He had to make sure that Karina had breakfast before going for a walk this morning.
Bi Eni understands if eating rice early in the morning sometimes does not taste good. Maybe because you are not hungry or because you have not sweat. So Bi Eni makes sweet porridge.
First of all Bi Eni prepares coconut milk. Boil it by using scented pandan leaves. While waiting for the coconut milk to boil, bi Eni dissolved the rice flour with a little water. Then after the coconut milk boils and the fragrant smell of pandan leaves is smelled, slowly put the thick rice flour solution into the boiling coconut milk and put a little salt before continuing to stir until the water sniffs and the rice flour matures perfectly.
Karina wakes up when the brown sugar water is ripe. Smelling her sweet and savory aroma, Karina's stomach was rumbling.
"While making what bi? Ya?" Karina asked with a hoarse voice of waking up. He thought it was compote because of the aromas of educated coconut milk and also the brown sugar water mixed with pandan leaves.
"No son. It's sweet porridge." Bi Eni replied with a smile.
"It looks good bi. It smells good." Karina rubbed her rumbling stomach. His saliva had even gone up and down in the throat.
"It's ready soon."
"alright. I'll go to the bathroom and pray first." Karina replied as she walked towards the bathroom in the kitchen. Actually every room in this house already has its own bathroom, but this morning Karina rushed out after kissing the fragrant arima that teased her tongue. So he decided to go to the kitchen bathroom and pray in the prayer room next to the kitchen.
When Karina was done with her affairs, everything was ripe. Bi Eni had even prepared a bowl full of porridge and his friends. Karina immediately sat down at the dinner table and inhaled deeply the sweet and savory aroma of the porridge.
"These porridge is good to eat while it is warm in the morning. And it's also nice to be cold with an extra ice cube on a hot day." Clearly bi Eni when she saw Karina enjoying her porridge with a satisfied expression.
"It's really good for bi." Karina held her thumb. This porridge is delicious. The most commonly enjoyed is savory chicken porridge. So eating this sweet porridge really produces a completely different taste. These porridge rarely sell.
After finishing her hope, Karina got ready to go for a walk. The few days of living in the village really made Karina feel very fresh. His lungs were very clean. It reminded him of his distant hometown.
Bi Eni walked beside Karina. The two of them simply walked on without anyone starting a conversation. Merkea prefers to enjoy a peaceful countryside atmosphere. Although it was still early morning, the atmosphere of the village was already quite crowded. Most of the people have already started their activities.
In the village, cooperation and gotong royong applied mai from the household. Each occupant of the house has his own duties. The mothers who swarmed the vegetable merchants. Some others walked towards him and some also carried groceries in their hands and walked home. These mothers obviously have cooking duties at home. Providing food for his family.
While his fathers, they are tasked to find sustenance for the family. Someone has gone to the fields. There are also those who drive motorcycles providing motorcycle services. And for the men who go to the office and the like will help as much as possible before going to work.
The kids are not left behind either. They were taught to accept responsibility. In this village, it will not be difficult to find children both men and women from the age of six years already holding a broomstick and sweeping their dirty yard because of the leaves of their plants.
Karina smiled watching the beautiful sight. Telling it to his hometown.
"In the city, we may never see a scene like this." Ucao Karina as they reached the edge of the vast rice field stretched out in front there. But the Karina Speech does not refer to the natural scenery alone, but the scenery of how the villagers live their simple lives.
"Bi. bi Eni." Call Karina when you don't find the voice bi eni telling her. Karina turned around and was surprised to find Bhishma standing not far in front of her.
