"Mom-mother, you realize that she's not in her stomach Emma, our new neighbor who lives at number 70," said Ms. Retno to three neighbors who were shopping at a mobile vegetable maker.
Ms. Heri turned towards Ms. Retno. "What the hell, Mom? What's with Emma's stomach?"
"Tales dong, ma'am, same us. Don't make us curious." This time, Bu Utami chimed in on the words of his next-door neighbor.
Ms. Retno handed one plastic vegetable tamarind, salted fish chicken feather, tempe one board and chili to the presence of vegetable brother. "Ck, means that as long as he stays here, you guys really don't pay attention to the woman's appearance carefully?"
"No, Mom!" sahut Bu Utami and Bu Heri almost simultaneously.
Retno snorted angrily because everyone in her village was not one person who was sensitive to Emma's womb. Either they are too indifferent or because it is Retno who is always looking for the ugliness of others to be used as gossip material in front of the crowd only the author knows.
"Look, Mom. Three months ago, Emma and her husband came here. They claim they just got married. Coincidentally, yesterday I was with Emma Ma's mom shopping at Bu Saodah's shop and I noticed that Emma's mother was like a person who was pregnant for four months. Bigger than the age of their marriage" said Ms Retno. He expressed his suspicions in front of two of his fellow prisoners.
Bu Heri and bu Utami looked at each other, then they turned to look at Retno who was busy choosing other vegetables.
"It could be because Emma's sister is pregnant with twins so it looks bigger."
Ms. Retno moved her lips a few centis forward and rolled the eyeball lazily. "No way, Mothers. My daughter-in-law was pregnant with twins, but not that. I'm sure the woman must have been pregnant out of wedlock so now her stomach is bigger than her gestational age."
Mom Utami and Heri fell silent. Retno's words have a point as well. Several times they accidentally saw Emma wearing a tight t-shirt while drying clothes on the side yard of the house. The woman's stomach looks already enlarged from the age of the womb in general.
Ms. Retno spread her eyes around making sure no Emma or anyone else eavesdropped on their conversation. The middle-aged woman approached the bodies of the two companions and stood between them. "You remember no news about the divorce of the two conglomerate children that had been splashing some time ago. Rumors of their marriage run aground due to the presence of people when. I tried to prank on their wedding video on youtube last night and how surprised I was when I saw the face of the groom is very similar to Pak Bima, her husband Madam Emma."
"My suspicion is getting bigger when I know the name of Pak Bima's extension is ... Bimantara Danendra's. And that means Pak Bima who lives at number 70 is the son of Irawan Danendra, the owner of the famous company, said Bu Retno.
"So .. meant Ms Retno, if Emma's mother was actually pregnant out of wedlock?" said Bu Utami stammered. He still did not believe the reality that had just been conveyed by his fellow artist because of the neighborly life, the attitude of Bimantara looks so friendly, polite and so loving Emma. There is no look of a bastard husband let alone a cheating man.
Retno nodded quickly as she said, "And also an actor!" The middle-aged woman deliberately confirmed the sentence spoken on her lips.
Shortly after, people who were being the subject of their conversation came over. Carrying a plastic basket made of webbing, Emma walked up to the vegetable cart that was running under the mango tree owned by local RT.
"Eh, there's Emma's sister. Shopping, Mommy?" said Bu Utami.
Ms. Retno did not accept if someone else said rudely to her fellow artist. "Heh, Madam Emma, if you say the same old man who is polite dong. Don't sniff it like that! After all, Bu Utami is older than you, so respect her," he said no less.
Instead of apologizing for being rude in front of older people, Emma turned a sharp gaze toward Retno's mom. "Like me dong, Mom, want to say rude or soft, anyway not the business of Mom. After all, is there any right Miss Retno to reprimand me? We're just strangers, no blood relation at all. So, don't interfere in my affairs!"
One tie of Retno bu kale just throw in front of the vegetable mamang to make a young man aged twenty-four years jumped in shock. "Heh, arrogant and haughty woman! I am not a nobody, we have no relationship, but that doesn't mean I can't rebuke you. You're dealing with someone older than you, you should be polite to us, not even feel powerless."
"Oh yes, speaking of blood relations, I am am sorry to have a child like you. So women really do kegatelan. The husband of the man is gilded, as there is no other man in the world. That is, willing to conceive an illegitimate child in order to gain power. But it turned out to be a badass. That's really disgusting!" the Sindir Bu Retno.
The roar of hunting breath, the chest of fireworks accompanied by anger within the increasingly peaked. Emma ruffled her waist as she unsheathed a sharp look. "Don't tell me, Mom, if you don't have proof!"
Ms. Retno folded both hands in front of her chest while smiling cynically. "We are indeed villagers, but that doesn't mean it's stupid to not be able to find out what happened to your past." He stepped closer to Emma and stood in front of the woman. "Your husband is Bimantara Danendra, ex-husband of Tsamara Asyifa Gibran. They separated because there was allegedly a third person in the household who was new for corn. Then you come to this village and confess to a newlywed but your vehicle is like four months old. And that means you're pregnant out of wedlock, while your husband's still in the state of one's husband."
Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, Emma was made to shut up instantly. The tongue feels incapable of saying anything. He did not expect that anyone would find out all the information about his past with Bimantara.
"Why be quiet? You must be surprised, right, why do I know everything?" Ms. Retno raised both eyebrows. "I was a class champion at school. For this business mah, small." He flicked his little finger with his thumb into the air.
Emma was still silent, some neighbors did not like it since the first time she and Bimantara moved to the village after selling apartment units owned by Tsamara's ex-husband.
Both hands are perfectly clenched beside the body. Wanted to avenge the accusation, but he was unable to. His body felt weak and powerless.
Not wanting to be increasingly sorted and her disgrace spread everywhere, Emma chose to leave as soon as she was empty-handed. "Excuse me!"
"Hj ... Retno. That's why people don't be pretentious. The turn of his US card was exposed, crying!" cibir Bu Retno while grinning. He was quite satisfied because he managed to teach Emma a lesson, while Utami and Heri's mother was only a spectator.
