Hello Bella's

Episode 8: Catch In The Act (2)

Lidya kept trying to calm Bella. "Istighfar Bel, come on. If you face them in a state of anger like this, you will not be real, you will be angry and they will deny" said Lidya.

"You're the same they're going to make a fuss so the spectacle of mothers here" continued Lidya.

"This is why Bella's so angry?" ask Rena. "Relax Bel... calm down, do not get angry for no reason, okay... yes, get angry in place," Rena also tried to calm Bella.

"Who the hell are those gosipin moms right now, you know who Bell is?" ask Rena again.

Lidya rolled her eyeballs, she thought from earlier Rena knew who the gossip victims of Bu Ratih and friends turned out she did not know.

"They're talking to me again" said Bella.

"Wah can not be allowed this, let's Bel let's go tuh julid mothers, what the hell he wants, can't what if the conversation is useful," rena exclaimed as she prepared to move from where they stood.

Pock

"Oh.... What the hell is Ma'am?" while stroking his arm that Lidya patted, Rena asked Lidya.

Although new to Bella, Rena has a sense of empathy for Bella, yes, she and her family have felt the ferocity of the mouths of their neighbors' julid.

"Don't follow Bella instead ngajak Bella for a commotion," said Lidya.

"Sir, they were caught again talking about Bella so they couldn't dodge, besides there were other mothers who could be our witnesses," Rena tried to convince Lidya.

Rena thinks this is their chance to rebuke the mothers.

"From the time they were talking, did you hear him say Bella's name or Bella's name?" ask Lidya later.

Bella and Rena try to remember and it turns out there is no Bella name or the name of her mother Bella in the chat.

"But from the content of the chat one can immediately draw conclusions who they mean, residents here who have a pulse counter on Jalan Arjuna only Bella, Ma'am," said Bella.

"Bel, if we go to them now, they will deny, and they are good at turning back the talk, I have been afraid of their behavior," Lidya tried to explain why they should not confront the mothers at this time.

"When the gossip about Me and Mas Bagas was getting louder, we tried to find out the source of the gossip, and some of the people we asked answered they heard from Mrs Ratih and her friends."

"With the news, we went to Mrs Ratih's house to ask for an explanation about this, Mas Bagas actually asked us to let it go anyway we were not like that, let it be their business with God later."

"But my mother, who was already angry, wanted to continue this matter, however this rumor was very detrimental to the good name of our family, Bella knew my father was the village secretary, almost all of our villagers know my father."

"When we met and talked about this with Mrs Ratih and her husband, Mrs Ratih, she felt like we were being arbitrary with her, she said we were accusing her without evidence, speaking of the village official's father and all the other accusations against us, "Lidya again told me about his family's experience when facing Bu Ratih.

"Yes.iya.... I remember the incident Ma'am," Rena remembered the incident.

"Bu Ratih to roar did not accept he was accused like that, duh until dizzy I see him, cry while adoring him, so much drama."

"Know not the most annoying, there were people who recorded the incident and the recording was shared in our RW group."

Bella who just knew this story until stunned to hear it. There are models of people like this, Bella thought.

"That's why you remember Ren, finally our family was labeled ugly by the residents, who he said pretended to be rich, to be opposed by village officials, just like residents like Bu Ratih," Lidya could still feel the sadness of her heart every time she remembered this incident.

Lidya and his family have tried to forget this, mengikhlaskan and try to make this a valuable experience so that in the future they are wiser in dealing with any problem.

But the bad label has already been obtained from some residents and slanted speech that sometimes reaches their hearing makes them unable to forget this.

"Bella just heard yes, this is when it happened Ma'am," asked Bella curious, there is an incident like this can be missed by her.

"It's not long before Bel" replied Lidya.

"I think the mending We just let them first yes, patience first, they if served instead of introspection there even feel given a stage to appear as a victim," Lidya sighed, he said, can Bella see there's some irritation on Lidya's pretty face.

"OK deh Mbak, this time Bella relented but I don't know if later," finally Bella accepted Lidya's advice.

" Ho oh Bel, who is sane mending relented," said Rena.

"Here you go, Bella hit the mothers" Lidya sneered at Rena.

The mocked even grimace, "So yes, now yes now," replied Rena.

"Yes, we've entered yuk, just close your ears shut your eyes if there is a bad chat, okay?" take Lidya while not forgetting to remind Bella and Rena not to care just in case there is an unpleasant chat.

They left the place and immediately went inside Bu Mayang's house after saying their greetings. The mothers who were present first answered their greetings and asked them to join.

The living room that is used as a place for the ceremony is lined with thick red carpet with a rose motif.

Everyone present sat on the carpet around the dishes in the form of cakes and soft drinks. It seems that not all the arisan participants have come.

Bella looked around looking for a place for them to sit down, as her eyes were fixed on that of Mrs Ratih.

"Eh.ada Bella," said Mrs Ratih to Bella very kindly while Lidya and Rena did not greet her at all.

"Here..ayo here sit near mom," invited Mrs Ratih while patting the place next to her.

It could be that Mrs Ratih is so friendly when not long ago gossiped about Bella.

Don't want Mom.lazy near Mom, Bella said in her heart. "Yes ma'am," Bella replied as she forced herself to smile.

Lidya and Rena follow Bella sitting near Bu Ratih. While greeting Madam Ratih and her comrades with polite smiles, Lidya and Rena had to increase their patience level, they were ignored.

Bella who saw that was upset, Lidya just signaled to her to be patient.

An hour ahead maybe more, Bella should sit next to Mrs Ratih. It doesn't feel very comfortable. Hopefully none of their behavior or speech can ignite back Bella's frustration. I hope...
