Hello Bella's

Episode 9: Catch In The Act (3)

Fifteen minutes passed, and the show had not yet begun. Only about ten or eleven people were present. The show was supposed to start half an hour ago.

Bella was feeling bad because she was late, uh it turns out that there was someone more late than her. This habit of congregational ngaret turned out to be difficult to eliminate among the community.

On campus too, when there is an appointment either to do a joint task or an appointment to go together there is always something ngaret and ngaretnya sometimes more than an hour.

Really annoying habits. Make others who arrive on time have to wait and the event becomes delayed.

During these fifteen minutes, the mothers who were present were busy chatting while eating the cakes presented.

Accidentally Bella looks at Bu Ratih and his friends, they are seen enjoying this chatting and snacking event.

"Bu Mayang, the cake is delicious, you know," said Ms. Mar.

"It's delicious, it's a nice banana sponge, the texture is soft and the banana feels really, the Salsa likes you like this sponge, I bring it to Salsa ya Bu," said Bu Ratih while taking a tissue and wrapping two pieces of banana sponge with the tissue.

"It's a delicious soy cake, the father of the children likes it too" Ms. Dian also took and wrapped her in a tissue and put it in the bag she was carrying.

While Bu Mar who was sitting right next to Bu Dian looked solemn with the cake he was eating while occasionally mangosteen like a jury was assessing the cuisine that was being contested.

"Buy where's Ma'am what's the cake for yourself?" ask Mrs Ratih.

"I ordered from the cake shop, this morning Miss Beautiful who brought it here?" Bu Mayang replied as he added the cake to the dishes in front of him.

"Recommended really for arisan or other events, the cake is delicious, from traditional cakes to current ones, the price is also affordable," Bu Mayang promotes the cakes he buys.

"Eh... Bu Indah who inter, how can, Bu Indah now sells cakes, has a store he, instead of just making a meal he is difficult, can capital from where to open a store?" a series of questions slid from Bu Ratih's mouth when Bu Indah's name sounded. Curiosity about his neighbor began thrashing about not knowing the place.

"The most important thing is that she works, where she has capital, her husband is unemployed" Ms Mar chimed in the words of Mrs Ratih.

"Yes well, it's good that he has worked, if there is income he does not have to go here and look for a loan to eat," Mrs Ratih looks happy because she feels she has a chance to channel her hobby, he said, reviewing the lives of others.

"The day when he came home to borrow money from me, he said his son had not eaten from morning" continued Bu Ratih.

The other mothers began to notice Mrs Ratih, while Ms Mayang looked uncomfortable.

"Let's have the mothers eat the cakes, please" Ms. Mayang tried to control the situation so that this conversation did not continue.

"Like the other mothers are not present, how about 10 minutes we just start the procession," said Bu Mayang later.

"Yes Ma'am, I agree," Lidya expressed her agreement. It seems like the sooner the better is done, Lidya thought. He started to feel annoyed with the conversation just now. He also realizes that Bella and Rena are the same as him feeling dislike.

"Lho can't do that dong, pity the mothers who have not come, this is our chance to gather with neighbors, events like this we can make as a place to tighten the friendship rope with fellow citizens," bu Ratih protest does not agree that the event is accelerated.

Strengthening the friendship rope what Mom, the feeling from earlier mother talking people continues, Inner Bella nagged Bu Ratih.

"Alright then, we wait another 30 minutes yes, after that we start the broadcast, I think the other mothers still have work or other business today," forced Bu Mayang relented.

"Say I want to borrow 100 thousand, I don't love it, small money so much for me but if I love it later becomes a habit, just borrow money, and pay it from where to try, borrow money continues not paid will be a sin for those who borrow it, yes mothers, I am sorry for the Beautiful Mom, already poor eh many sins," Bu Ratih at length explained the reason for his reluctance to help Bu Indah.

One hundred thousand small money yes for mother, that's what's the same news of debt at the counter Bella, until this second has not been paid as well, thought Bella.

Unknowingly Bella rolled her eyeballs, Lidya who saw that, patted Bella's thigh slowly as if warning not to be like that, not polite.

Bella glanced at Lidya and gave the invitation code home. Lidya shook her head slowly while saying slowly. "Yet soon."

"Tuh Bu, yes we do not feel sorry for the neighbors, but she has her husband, ask her husband dong work, if I am a Beautiful Bu I have kicked the unemployed husband like that, I know, not useful either," this time Bu Mar responded.

"That's really true, I did not end up thinking the same Ms. Lovely, unemployed husband, light hands are still maintained, what because her husband is handsome, useless Bu handsome but empty pockets," the thick mocking tone felt in the words of Bu Dian.

"Mending my husband, looks mediocre, but the bag is always there, this yesterday I just bought a 10 gram gold bracelet, our wedding gift," continued Bu Dian while showing the gold bracelet on her wrist.

Miss Mayang, Bella hitchhiked to the toilet, couldn't stand to vomit, Bella's mind.

From that moment he was busy babbling only these three mothers, the others were secretly alone, no one responded, there was an occasional like paying attention, there was a fun playing mobile phone, there was a fun phone, which doesn't seem to care there is either.

"Mayang, the cakes in the dining room I have arranged on the plate, want to be served now," suddenly a voice sounded.

Not only did Ms. Mayang turn her head towards the source of the voice, but almost all of them turned to her.

Some people looked surprised to see the figure who was now standing in front of them.

"Yes Bu Indah, we just present everything," replied Bu Mayang while standing and walking towards Bu Indah.

"Lho Bu Indah is here?" after muffling his surprise, Bu Ratih asked Bu Indah.

"From this morning I was here, Ms. Mayang ordered a cake from the Bu Alya cake shop where I worked, so I helped Ms. Mayang before going back to the store again," replied Beautiful Ma.

"Mom Alya... Bella's mother?" curiosity seemed to get rid of the shock and embarrassment of Bu Dian who was clearly caught red-handed gossiping Bu Indah. Is it possible that this mother is so numb that she has no shame, I don't know.

"Yes Mom, Beautiful Bu works in the shop now, it turns out that Beautiful Bu is good at making the cake," said Bella while praising Bu Indah.

"Thank God when I was in trouble God helped me through Bu Alya when we were not so close but Bu Alya when I knew I needed a job, Bu Alya helped me," Bu Indah still feels overwhelmed by every thought of this.

"Before I tried to ask for help to some neighbors that I have known for a long time but yes it, helped not spoken yes, yes, but it's okay at least now I know the quality of the people around me," calmly Bu Indah said.

Madam Ratih, Bu Mar and Bu Dian were silent to hear it.

Why in silence ma'am, did cat's get your tongue? bella's teasing in the heart.

"Mom-mom let's just start the show yes, Ms. Lovely asked Camila to help Ms. Lovely yes, I had told her to help Mother," Ms. Mayang immediately tried to control the situation, do not get any commotion in his house.

And the arisan event was soon started without much chatter here and there. Everyone talks when needed to talk.
