IRENG NIRMALA CANTILE

Part 43: Foster Children

As much as any collision that Nirmala sacrificed was not able to make her heart feel satisfied. There was one side of space in Nirmala's heart that she could not fill. The emptiness made Nirmala even more miserable and lonely however Nirmala was a mother. Mother who greatly protected her daughter.

In order to fulfill his longing, Nirmala made straw dolls that were placed in his yard. Every day the number of Nirmala's straw dolls is increasing.

As the number of Nirmala dolls increased, one by one the children in the village died. And the spirit of the dead child will inhabit the dolls of Nirmala. Not infrequently people who accidentally pass in front of Nirmala's house hear the sound of small children crying, or laughing. Also the voices of the children were playing.

This situation makes residents restless, how not Nirmala became a scourge for every citizen who lives in the village. There's no way out to stop Nirmala. All efforts made ended in death.

Cantilever skewers like a creeping plant that cannot be broken off the root chain, unless the main root is removed and left to die. But against Nirmala alone, no one is capable of how to fight the root.

Dathuk the village elder finally took part in this matter, before he never wanted to interfere. Seeing the root of this problem has spread everywhere and takes a lot of casualties.

“kang dhewe kareke mung anake, nanging wake dhewe ora ngerti ing endi anake ana”(all she wants is her son, but we don't know where his son is)

“continue what kang kudu awake dhewe dokake dathuk”( hold what we should do dathuk)

“dalan siji-sijine wake dhewe kudu ngorbanake siji son kanggo dadi adopted son Nirmala”(the only way we have to sacrifice a child to become Nirmala's adopted child)

“anake sapa kang arep dikorbanake dathuk, mesthi kabehing wong tuwa ola peing anake dening Nirmala”(whose child will be sacrificed dathuk, surely all parents do not want their children taken care of by Nirmala)

“wis iku ben dadi my business, ben I thinkake sapa kang arep dadi Nirmala” foster children(it's my business, let me think about who will be Nirmala's foster child)

After isya’ Dathuk asked Kanthi to come to his house. Kanthi is an orphaned girl, the age of Kanthi is the same as the age of Nirmala's biological son. So Dathuk thought that Kanthi was the right person to be Nirmala's foster child.

“my son kowe knows geneya kowe don't call me kanggo nemoni?”( My son you know why you I called to see me) Kanthi shook her head slowly

“apa kowe gelem kanggo dadi nirmala foster children?”(( are you willing to be Nirmala's foster child?)

“kepriye tegese dathuk foster children?”( foster children how does dathuk mean?) Kanthi asked confused

“kowe knows what nirmala is?”( do you know who Nirmala is?) Kanthi nodded

“nanging dathuk nirmala wadon nasty”(but dathuk Nirmala evil woman)

“dhaweke ora arep hurt you believe me, what kang wis dadi duwene ora arep dheweke jorke dead mangkono wae. kowe mung prelu wait to press nirmala son nirmala taka nemoni yours”(he will not hurt you believe me, what is already his will not he let die just like that. You just have to wait until Nirmala's real son comes to see you)

Dathuk's gaze made Kanthi give a rejection. In the morning around five in the morning Dathuk drove Kanthi to the house of Nirmala, Kanthi initially refused this is still too early for people to visit but again Dathuk gave a gesture for Kanthi to follow only.

The distance from Nirmala's house from the dathuk house takes almost an hour on foot. After several times dathuk knocked on the door, a woman opened the door.The woman was very cute and also graceful, her smile was so friendly. It turns out Nirmala is more beautiful than people tell.

“nirmala mesthi kowe wis ngerti surasa and my destination teka mrene” (Nirmala surely you already know my intention and purpose of coming here)

“anak iki jenenge kanthi, dheweke kang arep dadi foster childrenmu” (this child is called kanthi, he will be your foster child)

“tell me what kang kowe karepake press kowe tega adol anak iki karo I”(say what you want until you have the heart to sell this child to me)

“nirmala lawase iki I ora tau melu jero your business, jero, I understand kowe kangen your daughter ndean karo ngopenine because your son can sathithik reduce your sadness”(Nirmala all this time I have never interfered in your affairs, I know you miss your daughter maybe by nurturing her into your child can reduce your sadness a little)

“please I trima anak iki dadi my foster child, sapa wae kang wis karo karo I ora arep tau can ucul lan wrapped in bali” (well I accept this child to be my foster child, anyone who is already attached to me can never be let off and asked back)

“nanging kowe kudu ngandheg crimemu lawase iki, lan aja kowe dadekake son iki dadi your successor. your relationship karo kae may be worthy of dhewe-dhewe treatment among kowe kabeh without kudu ana kang patha-patha ngorbanake”(but you have to stop your evil all this time, and do not make this child as your successor. Your relationship with him only deserves the treatment of each of you without having to sacrifice each other)

“menawa kowe nglanggar kowe arep kowe kelangan dhewe tour your biological daughter, amarga dhewe yaku kreteg dadi kowe liaison watara and your biological daughter. kowe lan your biological daughter ora arep can meet mangkono wae watara kowe kowe kabeh arep ana kang lost, iku mergane kowe kabeh need a liaison. take care dheweke karo sakepriye mosthine Nirmala”(if you break you will lose him and also your biological daughter, because she is a bridge as a link between you and your biological daughter. you and your biological daughter won't be able to just meet between you there will be losers, that's why you need a liaison. Take care of him as Nirmala should)

After the dathuk and Nirmala made a covenant that should not be broken with each other, it meant that the dathuk had surrendered Kanthi completely to Nirmala.

Kanthi can only submit to following what the dathuk commands. Previously dathuk had given kanthi wejangan not to find out anything done by Nirmala, besides that it was a disrespectful act.

So what do you mean by kanthi is a bridge for Nirmala to meet with Qaeda????
