Not as Beautiful as Angan

Loss of Cempaka wedding dowry

"Cempaka Ayo! Do not hesitate any more, for Karmin is now your husband" Cempaka took Cempaka by the hand, and guided him to kiss Karmin by the hand.

"Mom, sir" Before leaving, Cempaka asked permission first to his parents.

Bu Sekar and Pak Jati did not comment much, they agreed while nodding their heads.

In a state still affected by his spells the old Grandpa, Cempaka obeyed his orders Kenari.

"Come, sit in front of him" said

Walnuts while sitting his sister right in front of Karmin, who from that moment his lips continued to develop his smile.

A triumphant smile, full of happiness.

Lha! which men will not be happy? Getting the wife of a beautiful girl who is Solehah and highly educated again, also the son of a rich and respected person in his village, by not spending a penny!

Really am! Karmin's like the one getting the durian collapsed.

"Come, take your husband's hand! And kiss, that's a sign you're devoted to him" the Canary Commandments. Karmin has thrust his hand towards Cempaka, not separated from his smile.

Doubtfully Cempaka took Karmin's hand, and he kissed her hesitantly as well.

Like there was something in his heart Cempaka at that time.

Either Grandpa's spell starts fading or what? Nobody knows yet.

"block! Plok! Plocke!" Walnuts raised both hands and applauded festively, after Cempaka finished kissing her hand Karmin.

"block! Plok!Plok! Huuh, hooray!" Unknowingly, everyone immediately followed him.

"His ring is putin on Cempaka's finger!" Shouted bi Ijah in the hope that he and all the people who were there could find out.

"Yes, the ring is out! Let's put it on the bride's finger!" Shouted the other.

"Yes pair! Put it!" The screams are getting boisterous.

Karmin looked at Kenari, asking for her approval.

"How's it?" His whisper.

"Don't! Danger, it could be later found out if it belongs to my mother" Whisper Walnuts in Karmin's ear.

"Why do you whisper that?" Cempaka doesn't understand.

"Well, no, nothing" said the nervous Walnut.

"Yes, let's get the ring and the bracelet out! We all want to know. The wedding dowry must be known by many people. Time in the umpetin continues? Even the bride does not know what it looks like?" The words of Bu Sekar felt stuck into his heart Walnuts.

He looked at each other with Karmin.

Quickly, Walnut immediately took the red jewelry box, then put it in his pocket.

"Where's the jewelry box? Let's open and get the jewelry out!" Mr. Penghulu asked for it.

"So, right, Mr. Penghulu already knows and has seen the contents" said Kenari doubtful.

" I already know, but Cempaka did not know. While the wife of Karmin's brother is not me" Mr. Penghulu dodged.

"Emh, um, this is the jewelry box" Walnuts are getting nervous.

"Now where? Who took it? There's no way a jewelry box can walk on its own" Mr. Ustadz asked.

"Let's get me the jewelry box!" Called Kenari, she pretended to be busy looking for her jewelry box.

"So the box is here" said Kenari hiding his cheating.

Everyone was busy looking for the jewelry box that became the wedding dowry of Cempaka and Karmin.

"Try on the carpet!" Jati sir's orders.

Bi Nani immediately took the broom.

The whole carpet rolled back, the whole room on the broom. The jewelry box did not meet either.

Everyone was astonished, everyone was panicked by the incident.

All excited and busy looking for the jewelry box. Only Walnuts and Karmin smiled in his heart.

"Her jewelry box we didn't find, this became a pr for us. We need to investigate until the jewelry box is found. Now the title again the carpet, because the bride has been martyred, how about now we enjoy the first dish that we have provided since dawn? Everyone agrees, right? Everyone agrees because everyone must be hungry, right?" Again Canary spoke up.

He tried to distract everyone who was there.

"Then, what about Cempaka? He doesn't know what the dowry is?" Bi Nani disagrees.

"Yes, we've put off the search for the jewelry box, now we title the carpet again and we eat this delicious dish together" Karmin said.

Cempaka mendelik.

Finally the carpet was in the title back in its original place.

One by one they took the dishes and filled them with rice and various kinds of side dishes that had been available on the table.

"What kind of auntie? How come! His eyes looking that way?" Someone reprimanded bi Ijah who was beside him.

"That's see! Like a red box, who knows it's the gold jewelry box we're looking for" Bisik bi Ijah, his index finger leads to his pocket Walnuts.

There it looks like a box that looms in his blazer pouch, it happens that the blazer material is not too thick. So the shape in the blazer bag is visible.

"Don't - don't accidentally in the same umpetin Walnuts?"

"It could be, bi. He was forcing Bu Sekar to minjam his ring for his wedding dowry Cempaka"

"If it were true?" Bi Ijah was flabbergasted with wide eyes.

"Pipetan bi Ijah! It's in the back already on the craze!" Someone reminded bi Ijah who was nyentong rice but, did not move also because he was busy chatting with people who were beside him.

"Eh, ma'af everyone" Bi Ijah became embarrassed himself.

The bag of Kenari's clothes disappeared from his sight.

Bi Ijah and Ceu Karni who were stalking his pockets Kenari, trying not to get far from the Walnuts.

His eyes were sharpened so he could see them again. However, it looks like Walnuts are more shrewd. He moved the jewelry box into his bag which he always carried with him wherever he went, he never left it.

"Mom, there seems to be something strange about our son's marriage. Didn't you feel it?" On the sidelines of his feed Jati asked his wife.

"Mother feels the same strange thing, but mother herself does not know what the strange thing is?"

Sahut bu Sekar's.

"Did you see the gold jewelry that Karmin made? Did Karmin ever tell mom about the dowry?" Ask Mr. Jati in confusion.

"Not at all, all I know is that Karmin brought nothing! He did not bring his dowry, he only brought one stel of clothes to change, no more" Sahut bu Sekar.

"Where is that fifteen grams of gold jewelry from? Also the five hundred thousand rupiah, whose money? And where are you from?" Bu Sekar frowned.

"Did the walnut use his own money, did it? But who does the jewelry have? She doesn't have that much jewelry. As far as mother knows she only has a one gram ring on her" Ms. Sekar stopped her mouthful.

His mind was looking around about the gold jewelry that became the wedding dowry Cempaka, and he said now the jewelry box was out of nowhere, it was gone.

Apparently the spells and incantations that were spread by the mysterious Grandfather had begun to fall out of his mind Bu Sekar and Pak Jati, but not completely lost.

While Cempaka since then he was like a person who was in confusion himself. His eyes were either staring at what, no one knew.

Cempaka who had been sitting next to Karmin, after he was told by Canary to kiss his hand, now shuffled away from him.

"Where's the deck going?" Ask Karmin.

Cempaka shook his head.

Not long after the meal was over.

Everyone was sitting back where they were, no one had intended to go home yet. Because, they want to find out where the gold jewelry box is missing.

"How's this? I have been waiting elsewhere, but the box has not been found" Mr. Penghulu was confused.

"We will try to find him, sir" said Mr. Jati.

"But, our son's wedding is how about Mr Penghulu?"

Bu Sekar became worried.

"God willing, may the dowry be found soon. Because the time has passed, and in the village next door there are already waiting for me, they are ready to carry out ijab qobul as well, not that I do not want to participate in finding the missing dowry. However, there was another bride and groom waiting and needing my presence. For that I excuse everyone, Assalamualaikum" Mr. Penghulu said goodbye.

"Yes sir, please and we thank him for his presence, waalaikumsalam" Mr. Jati drove him to the end of the front porch.

"Let's find that jewelry box again! We want to know and want to see his ring put on his ring finger Cempaka!" Shouted someone after Mr. Penghulu away from his house Bu Sekar.

Walnuts and Karmin were confused, his face looked panicked as it was extremely frightened.

They looked at each other like they were looking for a way to calm the atmosphere.

Because to escape is impossible.
