Around one o'clock in the afternoon we had entered the yellow Bamboo village. My husband and I stopped at the mosque first to perform the prayer. Some villagers who were going to pray looked at us who had just got off the car at the mosque parking lot.
"The MBA and the mas don't seem to be citizens here, do they?"
Sapa a mother with a maroon-colored robe, it seems she is the person who is well-regarded in this village looks how the style of dress and how other mothers treat it.
"Mom, I come from the city to visit the house of his daughter Rabi grandmother, "my answer told me.
For a moment the mothers looked at each other and whispered after that they all looked at me closely and they looked at each other and nodded their heads no matter what.
"If you look at your face like Edwan, the man who was involved in a scandal with Rabi's grandmother, is it true that you are Edwan's son. Oh yeah meet me mother Dina his wife Pak Kades in this village.
The words of Dina's mother, his wife, sir Kades, really make my heart sad because from the words of the lady, it shows as if the father is a cheap man who is a woman. But, again, the rice has become porridge. People talk like that because they don't know what the real problem is.
"I did not think with Edwan the handsome man who was smart really able to be in a relationship with ma'am le Rabi, even though obviously Edwan's wife was younger, beautiful and educated," said ma kades.
I just smiled in response to his words and immediately excuse me to ask for a break to pray. In addition to the time of prayer has arrived in time, I also cannot tell what really happened to just anyone.
"Oh. please mba, we also want to pray, let's just be together. Later if you need to be accompanied to the house of ma'am le Rabi, I will accompany. Mba has never been to the house of ma'am le Rabi.
Coincidentally a few hours ago the rabbi just came home he said from the police station picked up by his two children, Rahmat and Dayat, ", said Bu Kades as he stepped towards the mosque where the women were performing prayers
"So let's just say you're Edwan's son, "ask mom kades again.
I just answered the lady's question with a nod of my head. Smile amused in the heart when you hear the question ma'am kades.
As I recall I have nothing to deny that I am a father's son, doesn't that mean I am Edwan's father's son as they thought.
After finishing my prayer, my husband and I were accompanied by ma'am kades and some residents headed to the house of Mr. Rahmat and Mr. Dayat, the son of Rabi's grandmother, who happened to be next door.
Along the way, Mr. Kades and some of the residents kept telling stories about their teenage years. According to mom kades my father lived next door. there used to be many who wanted to be the wife of the father including Grandma Rabi who was then old and my mother who was still in high school.
We continued walking, a while later we arrived at two simple houses as simple as other houses in the village that stood side by side. According to the lady, it was Rahmat's house and Dayat Rabi's grandmother's son with their wife and child.
We all entered the yard without a fence, in the house saw two little boys playing.
"His father is dear" said bu kades to the two children. But the two children instead of answering, he ran into one of the houses, shouting.
"Well, there's an orangggg"
"Why did bu kades bring them kasini?, surely bu kades had heard their lies. Beware ma'am kades don't easily trust the townspeople!"
The man exclaimed at the lady, but the lady only smiled and sat down in the house, then gestured for us to sit down too.
"This is Mr. Grace, I am just doing my duty as a good citizen. There are people who are looking for a father, we happened to meet in the mosque so yes I helped him meet the father. If he lies or we will not see first, do not just accuse.
Let's sit down sir, let's talk with a cool head," said ma'am kades, inviting us all to talk to convey the meaning of our arrival.
Hearing the words of Ms. Kades who was very polite and friendly, the man who turned out to be Mr. Grace sat down, even though his face still looks unfriendly.
I feel grateful to be reunited with the lady who cares so much for others and seems to be respected by the people here. If we had just come alone with my husband, maybe we would not have been accepted and immediately expelled from here.
My husband immediately conveyed our intention to visit them, which is to want to congratulate us and apologize for our behavior.
Anggara then told in detail what happened in our family who used Rabi grandmother who liked father to heat mother.
We and our family admitted wrong and apologized profusely for our actions that did not think long considering how Rabi's grandmother would feel later," said my husband.
"Just want to apologize, sorry is easy. But what about my mother who was already crazy and kept asking to be married to your father.
Now you listen carefully. I will not forgive your family's mistakes if your father does not want to marry our mother.
there is no apology for you. You feel good to apologise, the problem is finished, against us poor people who are unable to go forward with this problem to the authorities.
You know because of your mistakes, now my mother often goes berserk asking for marriage. Have your father kasini later after heals and marry our mother immediately, then we forgive your mistakes, I see! "
I, brother Anggara and ma'am kades looked at each other. Frankly we were confused what else to say to persuade Mr. Rahmat to sincerely forgive us.
"Patience yes, do not be so hard, Mr. Grace, if the Edwan must marry your mother, the kasian Dinda who must be combined. Maybe you as a man can never feel how broken your heart is when another woman becomes the wife of the husband she loves. I as a woman can feel you know, if the sakiitnya is still here," said bu kades touch his chest.
Ms. Kades tried to mediate, it seems she also did not agree that my father who does not love Rabi's grandmother should marry her. Especially if my mother is still alive. As a good man, getting married again is not easy.
"I don't want to know anyway, Mr. Edwan should marry my mother. Kasian's mother has long been left by her father, of course as a normal woman she would want to live again. I await your arrival with your father to propose to mother," said Mr. Grace as he passed away leaving us all, the man entered the house and then slammed the door.
