Love Smells

Chapter 89 Healing Rituals

Hearing the words of Mbah Ijah, Arjuna and Dhita looked at each other.

Likewise with Mr. Setyo and Bu Safitri, they look very worried to hear the words of Mbah Ijah, because every speech Mbah Ijah is not without reason, Mbah Ijah has the ability to explore far into the future, and every word will come true.

" How to deal with it?" tanya Bu Safitri full to worry.

" Love, and piety to the almighty!" answer Mbah Ijah with confidence.

" Dhita boy, now close your eyes" Mbah Ijah ordered.

Dhita also said, he closed his eyes and let Mbah Ijah who held his crown, while his lips were muttering.

I don't know what he read, which is clear Dhita feels strange with the reading may be this is called MANTRA.

Then Mbah Ijah departed from the place, and returned with a jug and a white cloth in his hand.

" Let's join Mbah," Mbah Ijah walked by holding his staff.

Dhita and the others followed behind.

They walked through the darkness, but for Mbah Ijah it was not a problem for him.

Evidently even though he was very old, he was able to walk quickly far ahead. Dhita and Arjuna walk hand in hand. Mr. Setyo and Mr. Safitri walked behind them.

Apparently Mbah Ijah walked towards the river, heard from a distance the sound of the river flow so loud, indicating the river was very deep and swift.

" wear!" mbah Ijah cried while giving a white cloth that he brought.

" What is mbah for?" tanya Dhita felt strange.

" Why change clothes here?" batin Dhita was a bit doubtful.

" To bathe, in that river!" Mbah Ijah answered Dhita's question, apparently Mbah IJah is able to read the minds of others with his knowledge.

Hearing the words of Mbah Ijah, Dhita also complied.

He changed his clothes in the prepared place, an ancient hut with coconut leaves.

Accompanied by Mbah Ijah, Dhita went into the river, the river water was so cold it immediately touched his skin.

But strange happened, Dhita did not feel cold at all, on the contrary he felt very comfortable and calm in the river.

While Arjuna and the parents of Dhita, waiting by the river, because Mbah Ijah did not allow them to enter the river.

By reading the do'a, Mbah Ijah filled the pitcher he held. Then pour the water jug towards the crown of Dhita.

" Drink!" exclaim Mbah Ijah while thrusting the jug.

Without asking anything, Dhita according to it and what he felt after drinking the jug water.

He felt his whole body become fit again, and the pain that usually whack his body, now completely gone.

As if he had never experienced it.

" What do you feel?" ask mbah Ijah.

" My whole body feels fresh, and there is no more pain like I often experience" replied Dhita.

" Now think of your husband!" mbah Ijah's orders again.

Dhita closed her eyes, trying to imagine Arjuna's face in her memory.

" Imagine he's here right now, your husband is hugging you, and he's asking for something from you!" mbah Ijah said again.

And what's going on?.

Dhita's body was immediately helpless, lucky Mbah Ijah was able to sustain it. Mbah Ijah embraces Dhita while waving his hand for help.

Seeing that, Arjuna swiftly entered the water following Dhita and Mbah Ijah.

" Good Mbah!" replied Arjuna, without thinking long Arjuna immediately grabbed the body

Dhita with affection.

Arriving inside the hut, Arjuna immediately changed his wife's clothes.

Glug.

Arjuna had difficulty swallowing his saliva, as he saw his wife's body without being covered by a thread.

As a normal man, Arjuna was very tempted to see him. But as promised he would never do that without the permission of his wife.

Arjuna quickly changed Dhita's clothes, and took his wife out of the hut.

" What's going on?" mr. Setyo asked so worriedly that his daughter suddenly fainted.

" It's okay just a small reaction given dhohirnya." replied Mbah Ijah calmly.

The word Dhohir is the same as the word physical.

" Let's quickly take him to Mbah's house." Mbah Ijah ordered.

Without saying anything more, they brought Dhita back to the old house belonging to Mbah Ijah.

Arriving there, Dhita was immediately laid on the floor, Mbah Ijah took the incense and burned it, then he prayed for Dhita's recovery.

A few minutes later, Dhita opened her eyes, apparently conscious of her stupor.

Mbah Ijah immediately offered a glass of homemade herbal concoction.

" What is this mbah?" dhita asked as she smelled the pungent aroma of the potion.

" Drink, this is just a potion to restore the spirit of your body" replied Mbah Ijah.

" For your healing, drink up!" the Mbah Ijah.

" Drink son, this is all for your recovery, don't you want to get well soon" said Safitri, who gave his daughter support.

Hearing the words of his mother, Dhita slowly immediately drank the herb.

The taste is bitter to shake the tongue, but the herb has many powerful properties.

In addition to restoring endurance, the herb is also useful to repair damaged cells in the body even slowly able to restore the sense of sensitivity that has been lost from Dhita.

" Give him encouragement, always support what he wants, and never let him down, let alone hurt physically or mentally." Mbah Ijah gave advice, he understood how heavy the burden of life that Dhita has been under so far, to make it have to experience all this.

" Will our daughter be able to recover Mbah?" tanya Bu Safitri was hopeful.

" As soon as your daughter will be healed as before" replied Mbah Ijah to make everyone including Arjuna smile happily.

Ms. Safitri rubbed her daughter's head affectionately, hoping that soon their daughter could carry out her mandate as a full-fledged wife.

" Take this," Mbah Ijah said as he thrust two small parcels in his hand.

" What is this mbah?" asked Mr. Setyo, he happened to receive the package.

" It's sugar, drink it twice a day, and this incense burn every afternoon before the Maghreb by asking for ridho from the almighty." Mbah Ijah explained the two small parcels.

Hearing Mbah Ijah's words, Pak Setyo and Bu Safitri nodded their heads, a sign they understood.

While Arjuna who can not understand, just nodded his head.

After it was finished and Dhita's condition had recovered, they finally said goodbye.

Arjuna gave her a rather thick envelope. But Mbah Ijah refused, he did not receive any payment, his sincere intention to help others who needed his help.

Arjuna, Mr. Setyo and Ms. Safitri said many thanks, before they left the place.
