MARY
10. Mournfully
"Suf... Joseph... Who are you talking to?"
Suddenly the voice of the Father called and chanted,
Joseph and Mary looked at him,
Mary who would not be caught wet with Joseph in the room seemed to run away quickly,
Tuiii...
Mary climbed to the top of the closet, and quickly clung to the wall like a lizard,
Yusuf, who was also afraid that his father was suspicious, seemed to quickly pretend to lie down again while delirious,
"Suf...Joseph..."
The Father called again, and the curtain on the door of Joseph's room was opened from the outside, where his Father Joseph looked in,
"Hmmm..."
His father Yusuf shook his head, he thought that his son Joseph was talking to himself, but the boy was still sleeping soundly and was just delirious,
"Again war he can still sleep to delirious, not acceptable to be a soldier,"
His father Yusuf said as he closed the curtains of the child's room,
Just as he turned around, suddenly a woman stood looking at him,
His father Yusuf who did not think there was someone behind him of course immediately jumped in shock, he even almost fell because he wanted to run away,
Fortunately the figure quickly voiced out in a clear voice, though,
"What's up, sir?"
The voice that his Father Yusuf knew well was the voice of his wife, making his Father Yusuf was quick to act as if he was the bravest man in the universe,
"Oh.. There's nothing Mak, there's nothing,"
Said his father Yusuf,
"So I heard someone knocking at the door, who's meeting at this hour of the night? don't know the rules for once visiting a midnight house, like a ghost,"
Joseph's mother nagged at length,
Mary who was still in the closet was seen listening to her mother Joseph nagging,
"Yes Mak, maybe it's a ghost, opened no one outside, even cats just no one passing by, let alone cats riding a motorbike, walking alone is not there,"
"When you knock on the door like there is something important, it turns out that even nongol just not,"
His Father Joseph again,
"Ah fortunately also not nongol, if it is opened like in the house of Mr. Wirjo how, nyakar face of his wife and finally his wife died and died,"
Mom shudders,
Just a week ago the incident occurred, which is an uproar isyu wife of Mr. Wirjo the Landlord in the village of Yusuf lived reportedly sick due to clawed ghosts, he said,
"We should go back to sleep, who knows tomorrow suddenly there is news of this country being independent, we should be ready to raise the flag,"
Said his father Yusuf,
"Lho, is it certain that our country will be liberated by the Japanese army sir?"
Ask Mom,
"Well, hopefully, the Dutch had surrendered in Kalijati, they were in a very short time messed up by an old brother,"
His father Joseph was so excited, did not feel that in the room Mary who came down from the closet looked sad,
Yes, it is no secret that Mary is considered a parasite in this country,
A disturbing parasite, one that is evil and should be burned,
Maria is also aware that many of the people of her country who live on the land of the archipelago are arrogant and arbitrary, even enslaving, and even enslaving,
Three hundred years already, the nation lives in this country, Maria has even entered somehow generations kewega who were born in the archipelago, Nusantara,
But, blood is still blood, even though he was born on the earth Nusantara, in fact he still can not be a native, who finally now inevitably have to accept the fate of being finished off,
Joseph on the bed looked at Mary who was now drifting slowly near the curtain of Joseph's room, peering at his Father Yusuf and his Mother Yusuf who were increasingly excited about the greatness of the Japanese army in expelling the Dutch,
Mary looked with a very sad look at her Father Joseph,
The middle-aged man, who he thought was a loyal servant to his family, was also still a native who wanted independence,
A native who in his heart still feels that the Maria Nation is an occupier who should not have the right to live on the land of the archipelago as a ruler,
Yep... This is the truth, and Mary must accept.
