MARANTI (FOOD OF THE DEAD)

PART 6 FAMILY HERITAGE

Nur shook his head, his eyes looked confused

"I rarely see Ms. De Painem, Mom. After meeting him, he never spoke. Most just coughing" said my son then.

I am not surprised by the words of my son, Yu Painem is famous for being introverted and not having much contact with other people. I alone have long lived in this village only occasionally to his house, delivering zakat fitrah.

"What happened to Mrs De Painem?" ask that bachelor

"Oh, it's okay, Nur. He found the body of the sweet" I replied

"Ooo .. " cried my son

"Yes, then let's pray Isya' and have dinner first!" said husband. From his tone of speech it seems that my husband does not really like our conversation that leads to the supernatural.

"Yes, sir" he answered

We took turns to the bathroom to wash and perform prayers of Islamic prayer' congregate in Nur's room. Nur is most happy if his room is used for prayer, he said. After praying, we and our family had dinner at the dinner table, I deliberately turned on the stove to make flat eggs and warm tea as a dinner menu. After finishing dinner, we headed to each other's party. Don't forget I told Nur,

"Nur, if you hear something, you don't have to go outside the room?" say

"Yes, ma'am" she answered, closing the door to her room.

🕙🕙🕙

Tonight my eyes are difficult to close, the mind still continues to be imagined with the death of the sweet who is still mysterious, besides that I also think of strange events experienced by Nur. Who are the grandmothers who are always bothering my child? Long thought about it, I unconsciously fell asleep as well.

[BLEP] My eyes suddenly opened.

I woke up from sleep apparently. This is common to me when exhausted or with many thoughts. Usually when I wake up in the middle of the night, I use to pray tahajud to calm the mind, but tonight I have a bit of goosebumps who want to go to the bathroom. Waking up my sleeping husband is also kasiyan. I'm sleeping again, who knows if I can sleep again.

[SRET SRET SRET ... ]

There were footsteps in front of the door leading to the dining table. The sound of water being poured into the glass. Maybe it was Nur who was thirsty in the middle of the night, so he drank, as the story goes yesterday the day after tomorrow. I had to leave the room with her, so she wouldn't be bothered by the mysterious grandmother anymore. Or at least if the mysterious grandmother shows up tonight, I can tell who the real identity is that is bothering my son these few days.

I got out of bed and walked to the door. I turned the handle and pulled it inside. From the direction of the room door, the view in the dining room was clearly visible. We never turn off the lights in the dining room because we don't like the dark. Only the living room was turned off, even if we were going to sleep.

"You thirsty, Nur?" I asked while rubbing my eyes

There's no answer. There was no one in the dining room either. I looked left and right, maybe my son just left the dining table. But, there's nobody. Strange ... I thought. Since there was no one outside, I planned to close the door of the room back and continue my sleep. Not perfect yet I closed the door of the room, from the corner of the door that was still open, I accidentally caught a glimpse of the figure of Yu Darmi with her pale face sitting on the dining table chair staring intently at me.

"O MY GOD!!!!" peekikku while slamming the door of the room hard and ran towards the bed. I stepped over the body of my husband who was sleeping. I immediately sufficiency on the side of the mattress attached to the wall. Every now and then I peeked under the covers, afraid that Yu Darmi would come into the room. Thank goodness until dawn there were no more disturbances.

😱😱😱

The next day the husband could not accompany me to the market because there were other needs, while Nur I told him to bring a change of clothes, so later after school do not have to go home first, but I did not have to go home, but go straight to the house of the deceased budenya only. Nur agreed, maybe he is still traumatized by the presence of a mysterious grandmother at home.

After I finished shopping, I did not leave the market. I'm driving around the market looking for wild kittens. After I met him, I gave him a salted fish. Maybe it's his soul mate, the kitten didn't rebel when I brought it home. I stopped by in front of the house to put the kitten on the porch, I gave him enough salted fish before I left for Yu Darmi's house.

Apparently Bu Titi and Bu Mimin have not come to Yu Darmi's house. After parking the bike in front of Yu Darmi's house, I also walked to Bu Titi's house.

"Assalamualaikum" I said hello

there's no answer

"Assalamualaikum" I repeated with a slight shout

"Waalaikumsalam" There was an answer coming from behind me.

"Where's Titi from?" ask to Ms. Titi who only wrapped in a towel.

"Regular, Ma. Out of the public bathhouse" he answered

"Ooooo ... "

"I change clothes first, Ma'am. Please sit down!" Said Ms. Titi while opening the door for me

Ms. Titi carries a bucket of soap before entering her house.

"What's up, Sister Sin?" replied Lady Titi while looking.

"Em, that's okay" I replied later

"Yes, wait a minute yes" said Bu Titi as she gawked into the back room of her house.

It was not without reason that I called her just now, I saw my family's necklace coiled around her neck that was not covered in clothes. I wanted to ask him I felt bad. Afraid he's misrepresented. It could be that the necklace is just like our family necklace. If he is offended, I will bother myself later.

No more than ten minutes, he was done changing clothes and we went straight to Yu Darmi's house.

Fifteen minutes working in the kitchen, Ms. Mimin came to help.

"I had to pass in front of Yu Painem's house, Ms Sin" said Bu Mimin

"Is there a man?" ask Mrs Titi

"There, again, sitting in his living room. I think there's a guest?" answer Ms. Mimin

"Who's the guest, Ma'am? I'll go through the cover of his house. Every meal went to his house, there was never anyone" I replied

"Not seen, Sister Sin. The curtain is closed sich" replied Bu Mimin

"Basic old woman freak. Lights sometimes go off during the night. Sometimes life goes on. If you are reminded to be angry. Males I want to remind again" said Ms Titi

"Patience, Mom. His name is also old man" I said

At one o'clock Nur came, an hour later my husband also came. At four o'clock in the afternoon, the food was ripe. Both of Yu Darmi's neighbors were also allowed to go home and could not help his evening because they had to attend the mother's studies. I can't help it, but today there is Nur I can accompany in the kitchen. After the two of them died, I went to my husband who was cleaning in the living room,

"Mas, if you may know. Where's Yu Darmi's jewelry?" much

"The whole thing is in the closet, in Yu Dar's room" my husband replied

"The same canyon as mine is there, right?" ask me again

"I think there are too. Why, Dik?" turn my husband inquiring

"Rrr ... It's okay, Mom. Just want to know" I doubt

"Later if Yuli or her sister need a fee for her studies, the jewelry can be sold. Except for that necklace, don't. It's a hereditary family legacy" my husband replied again

💍💍💍

After getting an explanation from my husband, I also walked to Yuli's room, wanting to see Nur there. Last time, finished lunch and prayer, he immediately fell asleep, he said tired. The plan now wants me to wake up to take a bath and pray ashar, as well as accompany me in the kitchen. It doesn't feel good to be alone in Yu Darmi's kitchen. Singup.

I saw that my son was still soundly asleep facing the wall, just as usual, sleeping well. Just make a screech this child has told me many times do not sleep enough, still repeated.

"nr ... Nur ... Wake up Le, it's afternoon" I'm shaking Nur's body

There was no reaction from the boy, he was really soundly asleep. It has become a habit of the child, if it is enough, he will not wake up, unless the adequacy is opened. And I also parno if you have to open the adequacy. I feel like I'm opening up enough bodies. When Yu Darmi died, I did not dare to open up enough, just to blow a prayer or sholawat into his ear.

I had to get on the bed to open up my son's sufficiency. Once on the bed, I held the edge of the blanket over his face, preparing to open up enough, when suddenly ...

"Mom, is his new toothbrush there?" someone shouted from the bathroom. I sharpened my hearing to ascertain whose voice it was.

"Mom, is his new toothbrush there?" Shouted that someone again whose voice was one hundred percent similar to my son's.

I gasp. If that one in the bathroom is my son. Who is lying in front of me? Not long after I thought, the figure in front of me suddenly turned around and opened up his own adequacy. The smell of corpse soap gushed sharply into my nose, just as the pale face was wide open beneath me, his red eyes were staring at me, his cotton-clogged nose adding to the horror of his face.

"WUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" I shouted that choked in my throat.

His bulging eyes were ringing with my glaring eyes as well. The difference is, if he glares to scare me, while my eyes glare so surprised by the sight before me. Yu Darmi's pale hand held my hand, I couldn't escape at that moment.

SERIATE
