PELLET THE MIDWIFE

Manichaeans

Puspa packed the whole outfit in a big bag. Seeing Satya's closeness with Pamela made her take a decision. According to the mother to go back to the village.

Regarding marriage he did not take it seriously, which he certainly wanted to take a break from the endless love story. Falling in love is sick.

Never mind, savings are enough to just build a stall in the home empire. After all, the contract that Satya had been talking about had already crossed the agreement limit.

"Where are you going?"

Puspa pulled the suitcase slowly towards the employer who looked at him full of wonder.

"I want to go home, sir. Thanks, you've helped me and my mom a lot."

"What's this about? Why so suddenly?"

"It's not sudden, Mom said it yesterday, maybe you're too focused on Pamela, so don't hear what my mom says!"

Flat expression without a smile, clearly visible on Puspa's face.

Anita stared fixedly, why Puspa even went home when he just got a job. What would he do without Puspa?

"You calm down first, Puspa! No hurry!" Marni.

"I've thought about everything, Mom."

"alright. Go away and never come back!" Emotions make Satya unaware of the words that come out of her mouth.

"Alright, you also don't ever come to my village again!"

Puspa dragged his mother's hand while one hand dragged a suitcase containing her clothes.

"Keep me piye, Pus?"

Anita blocked the roads of Puspa and Ningrum.

"Find the contract, Nit! Keep working. If you need help, you can call Raka!"

Puspa no longer paid attention to the people around. Footsteps walk with confidence while holding the scar that still leaves pain.

"Tejo Piye, Pus?"

"Let him, Mom

Tejo can go home alone. Didn't Mom say she wanted a job so let it go!"

Puspa lowered his head in the taxi following Ningrum.

'Here it is, I must know myself. This is the last time I set foot in this place, hopefully.'

***

Since the departure of Puspa, Satya's mansion became quiet. No more laughter. Anita has also received a contract around the residence of Raka.

While Tejo, hearing Puspa back to the village he moved quickly to follow the steps of the two women to immediately go home as well.

Puspa shopping in the morning with Ningrum buy some necessities for them to sell rice pecel and sit on the terrace of the house.

"Mom, is that enough?" Puspa arranged several snacks between rows of ketchup bottles on the table.

"Already, pus. You don't papa help Mom sell like this?"

"No Popo, Mom. It's halal."

Puspa's life was back to how it was, the morning woke up with the voice of the mother's cry. There was no meaningful change other than a cheerful nature that began to disappear.

Fadli repeatedly met with, divorce papers had gone out Her marriage to Yasmin ended legally in the country. However, everything has no effect on Puspa.

Almost every day, Ningrum persuaded his daughter to accept Fadli's proposal, but Puspa was not a submissive child who would agree immediately.

What else is he thinking? Fadli has become a widower, his parents have also given their blessing. For Pak lurah and his wife the happiness of the son is more than anything.

Fadli takes off Yasmin and all the lure of living comfortably on her side. Now he is building a small business in the village. Of course, both parents support so that the son can live close to them.

One unresolved issue in Fadli's life, the approval of Puspa.

"What else do you think, Pus?" Currently Fadli is sitting on the terrace of Puspa house. So easy is the man to seduce. He forgot his rude attitude at that time.

For Fadli it was only a khilaf but for Puspa Fadli's attitude to him that night cut off the love in the heart to its roots.

"Puspa, I'll keep seeing you until you agree!"

For more than half an hour, Fadli left his job, without the spirit of the man stepping away and intending to come back again.

"Rum, is Puspa still resisting?" Entin gently nudged his best friend's shoulder. Both are sitting on the bench at home.

"You can see for yourself?"

Ningrum was not out of thought with his daughter. Why refuse the Fadli he once wanted?

"Is it possible that Puspa loves another man, Rum?"

"Sopo? Tejo?"

"Yourge ... Fadli did not want to let alone Tojo. Not in your right mind!" Entin's a little upset.

***

In the city, Satya was attending a wedding invitation of one of her friends. There is also Rio the human playboy.

Satya was flabbergasted when she saw Rio not coming alone but with a woman who was no stranger to her. Anita, the girl looks graceful with thin makeup on her face. He remembered Pispa. The village girls instantly became princesses with just a little makeup polish on their faces.

"Why can you be together?" tanya Satya was full of search.

Rio and Anita looked at each other and smiled. "You're here first yes, I have to talk to Satya,"

Anita nodded slowly then sat down in one of the guest chairs.

"Don't mess with Anita! I won't stay silent until you hurt her!" Satya stared intently at the man before her.

Meanwhile, Rio was laughing instead. The shoulder of Satya. "I'm not like you, Sat! At least I dared to express my feelings to her, and this time I was serious, I even intended to make Anita a wife."

"What?" Satya took off Rio's rough arm.

"So that guy has to be gentle! Don't Plin-plan!" Rio patted Satya on the shoulder then left the man and walked over to Anita.

"What does he mean? Who's he calling plin-plan?"

feeling upset Satya left the party that had not even started.

***

"Puspa, I don't want to know you have to marry Fadli!"

That afternoon Ningrum came home with a panicked face.

"Aren't you bosen opo? Keep talking!"

"Bah Slamet said you should get married soon otherwise our family will be affected by a disaster!"

The more strange and beyond reason the talk of Mbah Slamet. However, Ningrum was growing more and more trusting. Because for him there was no reason for the shaman to lie, even if Puspa married Fadli there was no benefit for the old man.

"Mom doesn't want to know you have to agree!" Ningrum did not want to be denied the woman entered the room and locked herself.

"Bu ...! Why be like a kid?" did not find his mother open the door Puspa also gave up and left his mother's room.

The day Ningrum did not come out of the room, Puspa began to worry. Don't let her mother do anything that's not.

"Bu ...! Don't be like this! You can get sick if you don't eat."

"Let it go .. You'll be sick when you're sick. Let it be .. Let me not let you be satisfied!"

"Mom say opo to?"

"Half an hour Puspa sat at the door of his mother's room. However, the lady was clammy not going out.

"Yowes, Puspa manut. "

"Dan?"

"Let's go, ma'am .. open the door to her room!"

Hearing Puspa agree, Ningrum also opened the room door. But not until the door is wide open. Suddenly the woman's body staggered and fell to the floor.

"Mother ...!"
