Girl Without Nasab & Ningrat Son

Sharing Stories

In the afternoon, Hadinata's extended family and the State family returned to Jogjakarta, at Satria's house. Nakula and Sadewa who are tired of playing now relax looking at children's songs on a YouTube channel. Adults gather in the living room.

Satria remembered the figure of Bu Karti and then told about Bu Karti to Rama and his mother. Because, Satria every time he wanted to tell a story even forgot. Now, then Satria can tell her parents.

"Rama and Mom remember with Bu Karti no?" tanyakanya.

Rama Bima and Bu Galuh seemed to remember first. Until finally both of them nodded.

"Bu Karti who used to take care of you and Sitha didn't?" ask Miss Galuh.

"Yes, Mother. Yes, Bu Karti who used to take care of Satria and Sitha. A few months ago, Satria met Bu Karti. Want to tell Mom and Rama, Satria even forget to continue," Satria's story now.

"Can I see you, Sat?" ask Miss Galuh.

"Meet the festival booth time on campus first, ma'am. He's looking for his son, happened to meet us" he replied.

Ma'am Galuh nodded his head again. Apparently an unexpected meeting. The figure of Bu Karti for the family of the State is already considered a family or a relative of his own. Even though they had not met for years.

"Bu Karti where now, Sat?" ask Rama Bima.

"Living in his village in Cilacap, Rama. It is sad to be Bu Karti, the son who was born and raised by her husband's family, but does not want to admit his mother. In front of us, we heard how his son said something that was not about Bu Karti" Satria said.

In this context Dad Pandu and Mother Ervita do not know anything. What kind of figure Bu Karti looks like, they also do not know. They certainly listen.

Ma'am Galuh took a long breath. He returned pity. Because, how the sad story of Bu Karti, Bu Galuh very know.

"At first Miss Karti worked for a while in our house. Before you were born, only briefly Bu Karti returned to his hometown. After two years, Bu Karti returned to Solo and worked again at our home. Well, that's when Bu Karti took care of you and Sitha. But I also know her sad story. When she returned to Cilacap, Bu Karti worked at a rich man's house and there she was harassed and finally Bu Karti gave birth to a baby boy. Containing and giving birth to her own, until finally the male family came to be responsible, but only a trick somehow her son taken custody. Children under the age of 17 usually have custody in the hands of their mother. However, it could be the child who is considered a baby, taken custody by the male family."

Long-term, Miss Galuh told me all that. Mother Ervita who just listened became full. If you get pregnant and give birth without a husband, she experiences it. However, Indi's full custody is hers.

"I am listening to you sad. My story used to be sad, it turns out there are still more sad," said Mother Ervita.

"Yes, Mom. His story is so providing. In the past, Bu Karti if taking care of Satria he said while imagining his son. The age difference is not too far away," replied Galuh.

"Everyone who works with us we will consider the brothers Bu Ervi and Pak Pandu. Glad to hear the news, even though it is also pity," said Rama Bima.

A few moments Rama Bima was silent. Then, Rama Bima spoke again to Satria.

"Other time we go to Cilacap would not, Sat?" bring Rama Bima.

"Mother come along? I miss you too, Miss Karti. Remember first, he always belain Satria if Satria naughty," said Bu Galuh.

"What was Satria like, Mom?" ask Dad Pandu.

"Yes naughty, sir. He likes to look for snails and snails in the rice fields. It has been told not to look for snails and snails in the rice fields, even the hot afternoon go to the rice fields. His feet are all dirty. Later Bu Karti that clean Satria, before Rama came home, dirty clothes with mud has been washed first with Bu Karti," story Bu Galuh.

Pandu's father and Mother Ervita laughed at the story of Galuh about the childhood of her daughter-in-law. Even so, for Dad Pandu it is actually only natural. His name is a boy and Satria's house is close to the rice fields.

"Wow, if Nang-Nang in Solo can-can find snails and snails in the rice field tuh," said Dad Pandu.

"It could be, Mr. Pandu. Water flows from the top down. It can be like Satria. We can not play in the rice fields because the mud is dirty, there could be rice rats or rice snakes. Dirty is good, but must pay attention to the environment as well as Mr. Pandu," said Bu Galuh.

"What is feared is indeed a rice snake and a rice field mouse, Mom. Sometimes kids don't know. The dangerous even approached," replied Dad Pandu.

Satria was smiling listening to stories when she was a child. His name is also children, but it is also true that Dad Pandu said that what is dangerous is precisely what the child approached. Need supervision from his parents.

"This weekend to Cilacap, how? Mumpung this week Rama and Bunda in Jogja," asked Rama Bima.

"By, Rama. Must be Bu Karti happy when he could meet Rama and Mother again" said Satria.

Rama Bima and Bu Galuh nodded their heads. After a dozen years and then to meet again, it must be a pleasure. Moreover, Bu Karti is already considered like his own family.

"Mbak Indi if you come, Nang-Nang is entrusted to the house of Mother. Let Mother take care of them. Jogja to Cilacap is also quite far away," said Mother Ervita.

"Panjenengan so diligently ngasuh grandchild, ma'am ...." Galuh said so to Mother Ervita. According to Bu Galuh, even Mother Ervita was very excited to nurture Nakula and Sadewa. Both of his grandchildren are very active.

"Eyang Kayak gini's consolation, ma'am. Ngasuh grandchildren invited to sing, invited to watch fish, already happy. Especially now we, me and his father Indi just the two. Look for busyness, Mom," said Mother Ervita.

"Home so quiet huh, Mom?" ask Miss Galuh again.

"Yes, Irene in Jakarta. Especially our daughter girls, she said girls will be brought by her husband. Well, the youngest has not had a husband alone is far away to Jakarta. However, it's okay Irene is studying," replied Mother Ervita.

"Yes, Mom. We have to get ready later if Sitha wants to get out of town. It's like being a parent, Mom."

There were many stories that afternoon. The two besan can sit together and share their stories without covering up a few things. In addition, also the relationship of two besan just like a big family.
