Girl Without Nasab & Ningrat Son

Bu Karti's Figure & Origin of Yudha

"Bus ... Karta?"

Satria asked in a soft manner. Satria felt familiar with the figure of a middle-aged woman with her tan skin. If not wrong, the woman was named Bu Karti.

"Den Satria yah?" ask Bu Karti.

It was surprising that Bu Karti also recognized Satria. That made Yudha very confused of course. What is the relationship between the two? How can the two know each other.

When Satria wanted to say hello again, Yudha actually spoke first and left the middle-aged woman.

"Ngapain nyamperin Yudha here! Yudha's gone!"

"Yud, Yudha .. wait for Mother, Jud."

Bu Karti tried to chase after Yudha, but in vain because Yudha had already left. While Satria and Indi then helped Bu Karti who had a look on his face to cry because of being left behind by Yudha.

"Mother Karti, I apologize in advance, do you know Yudha?" ask Satria by inviting Bu Karti to pull over and take shelter.

Indi certainly followed her husband. Her medical stand was handed to the officers who attended that afternoon. Bu Karti sat with a breath of breath and almost cried.

"Den Satria knows Yudha?" asked Bu Karti by turning to look at Satria for a moment.

"Yes, of course Satria knew Yudha. We were a class first when we were in college" Satria replied.

No need to tell the relationship between Indi and Yudha first. What is certain Satria knows Yudha, students of one generation only differ from faculty. Bu Karti was previously silent.

"Oh, so Den Satria is a force with Yudha?"

"True, different faculties, ma'am. Call me Satria, ma'am. No need to wear Den or Aden anymore" Satria replied.

Bu Karti smiled faintly. It was customary for him to call Satria by the call of Den or Aden. Bu Karti also knew that Satria was of noble descent. Even his great-grandfather Satria was still related to the palace in Solo.

"However Den Satria is a descendant of Ningrat. Distinct from Mother, whose term was once batur," he replied.

In Javanese terms, Batur is a maid. In Ngoko (a Javanese with a rough level, people of rank to people who do not have rank) helpers are often called Batur. The host is called Ndoro. The children of the host are called Den or Aden.

"Have forgotten about the past, Miss Karti. Is this mother Yudha?"

Bu Karti was silent for a moment then he told at length about his story and his relationship with Yudha. Indi and Satria also listened to everything attentively.

Pause for a moment of his speech, Bu Karti then told me again."Pregnant mother at that time, the mother's child remains the mother was born even though she did not have a father. What's more, Den .. the man doesn't want to take responsibility. What I'm grateful for is the mother's son's man. At least when she gets married, she doesn't need a guardian. If the mother's daughter, inevitably must need a guardian. If his father is not responsible, he must use a judge. However, it is all fate. When Mom's son was 3 years old, the man who impregnated her was looking for us. He married Mom, so he could be responsible for the boy. Until finally, the wedding was just a ceremony, because after that the mother was divorced and custody of the child fell to her biological father. The child was Yudha. We've been separated for ten years. I came looking for Yudha a few times because Yudha would not see me."

For Indi itself, what Bu Karti experienced was much sadder than what Mother Ervita experienced. If Mother Ervita immediately met Dad Pandu and after that tasted happiness. However, the story of Bu Karti is more tragic. Pregnant himself, giving birth alone, and after that married for only a few moments, then divorced and custody of his child taken away. That's a tragic story. As if there was no happiness for him.

"So, Yudha is Mom's son?" ask Satria.

"Yes, Den Satria. Only Yudha might be ashamed because her mother was only a batur. Yes, this batur used to mupload mattresses. Ever been in the bed of the master's son. However, it did not last long. After I got divorced, I went back to work. Mother returned to be a maid in the family's home. Take care of Den Satria and then take care of Den Sitha."

Apparently that's the dark story of Bu Karti. She had previously worked as a maid in the State family home. After a few years passed, after bitter and bitter problems in his life, Bu Karti returned to work at the home of his former employer, the State family by taking care of Satria and Sitha. Therefore, Satria knew Bu Karti, but did not know Yudha at all.

"Mother's been out a long time. Satria passed SD at that time. Satria still remembers Bu Karti, there is still a picture of her mother who took care of Satria and Sitha at home" the story goes.

"At that time, Mother returned to Cilacap because Father and Biyung (Mother) were aging, Mother took care of both parents and tandur in the rice fields. While looking for Yudha, his son his only mother."

Indi has since only listened even though he looks more emotional because his story is very sad for Indi. While Satria was happy to also meet her nanny when she was a child.

"Den Satria is an adult now. Must be married?"

Satria nodded her head. "Already, Mother. The one sitting next to Mother was Satria's handkerchief."

Garwa in Javanese term is for our life partner. The word Garwa when parsed means Sigaring Lives, or Half Lives. A husband or wife is half the life of each spouse.

"The gravity is ayu tenan, Den," said Bu Karti by holding Indi's delicate hand.

"Boanings, Mom. His wife Mas Satria" replied Indi.

"Tene. Her hands are rough mommy yeah, Ma'am. It is common to carve rice in rice fields and plant in fields," said Bu Karti.

"It's okay, Mother. The important thing is that a healthy mother is always nggih, Mom."

Hearing Indi's soft words, Bu Karti's eyes glazed over. "Satur nuwun, Ma'am. Pancen Den Satria iki pinter milih garwa." (Thank you, Den Satria is good at choosing a life partner)

"Mother here what ride? Will we take you home?" ask Satria.

Miss Karti shook her head. "No, Den Satria. I'm staying near here, at my brother's house. It was his intention to seek and meet Yudha first."

Long enough they chat and after Bu Karti say goodbye. I will seek Yudha again. Hopefully Yudha can soften her heart and meet Bu Karti who is actually her own birth mother.
