Jamu Gendong - Young Widow Gebetan Brondong

Chapter 58. A Family

Five people were seen exiting the climbing post via Baturaden. Baturaden is the fifth post of the climbing route they came to. Hope there's a speck of information about someone they're looking for. But even in this post there is no news that makes them happy. From the look of their faces emanated feeling tired, disappointed and want to give up. As if increasingly asserting that in this search effort has a lot that they spend. Starting from time, energy, mind, money and so forth.

For a moment, they chose to rest in a food stall. In addition to resting, they also had to discuss to decide what they would do after this.

"This is the fifth post we've come to, Ma. Is Mama still not willing to give up on finding Banyu's whereabouts?" asked Herlambang to the wife sitting in front of him.

Soto Sokaraja's menu is on the table. The distinctive aroma of soto began to pour into the sense of smell. The broth of cows with ketupat and peanut pieces seems to make this menu even more delicious. But alas, how delicious the menu is, absolutely can not make happy a middle-aged woman who had chosen to be silent a thousand languages.

"There's still one more post we haven't been to Pa. And Mama still chose to go there to find Banyu's whereabouts. Mama's sure that Mama's son survived and she's still alive."

"But between the climbing route that Banyu took at the beginning of climbing via Jurn with via Bambangan it is very unlikely Ma. It is impossible for Banyu to climb via Juci and down via Bambangan. It was an impossible and unacceptable thing with Ma's common sense."

"It may sound impossible, but Mama has confidence that Banyu is still alive today. If in the post Bambangan later we do not find any information, then Mama will choose to give up and assume Banyu is dead."

Kinanti said with an empty eye view and glare. Her tears did not stop going down every curve of her face. It may sound impossible that the son is still alive and safe. But as the woman who gave birth to Banyu, she still had that belief.

Banyu and his three friends climbed Mount Slamet two months ago via the post Guci. After being reported missing, several teams made a search effort, but the search was stopped and Banyu was declared insecure after two weeks.

Indeed, it made Herlambang and Kinanti so devastated. The three friends of the son can return home safely but apparently not with Banyu. Even the existence of Banyu was not sniffed at all. If indeed Banyu is dead, at least Kinanti wants to be reunited with his body. To this day, his body was not found.

After the search was stopped and declared dead, the Banyu family chose to conduct the search independently. If previously the search only focused around the climbing route via the Jurn, Herlambang and family tried other roads by finding information about the whereabouts of Banyu via other climbing posts. Post Cemara Sakti, Pos Dipajaya, Pos Kaliwadas, and Pos Baturaden they have explored with zero results. And there is only one more post that they have not visited, the Bambangan post.

"But Auntie, the location of the post of Juci and the post of Bambangan is quite far I think it is impossible if there is information about Banyu there. Even if you get lost, it's impossible if Banyu gets lost that far."

Aldo, a young man of Banyu's age who was then the leader in his climb with Banyu also accompanied the Herlambang family to find the whereabouts of Banyu. Since Banyu was declared missing, he could have concluded that the loss of Banyu was not purely because he was lost but there was something unreasonable that happened to him. He remembered the blue stone he had placed in the pocket of Banyu's trousers. And he can conclude that Banyu's disappearance has something to do with the stone.

"It's all because of you, Al. You are the one who took my sister up but you just left her. What an attitude that is not worth having by the leader in a climb. You're selfish Al. You're selfish!" timpal Pandu who is none other than Banyu's older brother.

"But Brother, I am innocent because me and the others just walked slowly while waiting for Banyu to rest," elak Aldo defended himself.

"Everywhere the leader must understand the physical condition of its members. If you stop, you have to stop all. If the road must be all road. What are you doing, huh? You left Banyu and ended up separated."

"But Brother..."

"Already, already, already .. You guys don't fight anymore. Better now we follow the words of aunt Kinan. We proceed to the Bambangan post. I also believe that my lover survived and she is still alive today" said a girl of Banyu's age who stopped the debate between Aldo and Pandu.

He shifted the chair he was sitting in to get closer to Kinanti. He hugged the middle-aged woman tightly and rubbed her back.

"Villia also believes that Banyu is still alive Tan. Before Banyu's body is found, Villia still thinks that Banyu is alive."

Kinanti nodded her head. "Tante also hopes that way Vi. Sorry about this incident, your engagement to Banyu has to be pushed back."

"It's okay Auntie. What is certain is that after Banyu managed to find, the engagement event can be continued immediately."
