Sumiati
On the edge of the river where the water flowed profusely, sat a beautiful girl leaning against a boulder. Ayu-faced with shady eyes and staring straight at the rippling water.
His eyes were blank, his lips pale with white skin to blue veins clearly visible on his hands and fingers.
He sat alone, enjoying the rustling of the water and also the sound of forest insects that were mutually unpretentious.
Under the glowing moonlight, the rolling water looked beautiful. Water froths look like snow in the distance.
He was so enjoying the atmosphere of solitude that was so soothing while waiting for the mother to come home.
Srak-srak!
The girl's eyes suddenly moved and instantly rose. Both of his hands rested on the ground, rising from the side of the huge rock and swinging his legs, stepping away from the side of the river.
"Mother!" call him to the old woman who stepped closer. The woman's steps were so fast even with her body bent.
"Sorry to wait a long time, Nduk. Mother had a hard time taking food for you, "the woman gasped in front of her daughter.
The girl shook her head and looked sadly at the old woman who was still fighting for her.
"Mom, when can Sumi find her own food? Sumi pity look at mom, let Sumi help, Mom," muttered the long-haired girl as she touched her mother's soft arms.
The already wrinkled face was instantly moody. His thin hands he lifted and clasped the hands of his beloved daughter.
"This is what we've been talking about a lot, Nduk. Now that we go home and you eat this, you must be very hungry" he said, to which his son was immediately taken.
They then walked side by side to a hut house made of woven bamboo and roofed rumbia not far from the river side.
The simple house that was still plastered looked deserted when the woman opened it.
A stuffy aroma instantly burst out as the door opened. Not only stuffy, the smell of carcasses also pierces the olfactory cavity.
For ordinary people, the smell must have made vomiting, but not for Sumiati and her mother.
The two women who lived together were so happy with the smell of the house and also the condition of the house full of dust and cobwebs. For them it is the most comfortable place.
"Sumi take the plate first, Mom," said the slim girl as she stepped into the kitchen.
His mother just nodded slowly. His eyes were riled up as he looked at his daughter from a distance.
Sumi grabbed a plate made of clay made by her mother's hand and herself to become a food base carried by her parents.
So hasty that he almost forgot to bring water from the jug to wet his mother's esophagus.
He turned around and grabbed the cup on the wooden table and took the water from inside the jug with a centong made of coconut shells and teak sticks.
After the cup was filled, he carried the two objects with a gasp, as his right leg was shorter than his left, he drew closer towards the old woman who was still standing mutely.
"Alon-alon wae Nduk, ngko tibo," (slowly, son, will fall)
He stared worriedly and pityfully at the beautiful girl whose steps were limping because her right leg was smaller and did not grow perfectly.
Every time he saw the lack of his son, his heart always felt pain and like pierced daggers.
The hunchbacked woman with a wrinkle on her face nodded. He also moved towards the wooden chair whose weathered legs were eaten by termites and sat there, along with Sumi.
"It's Sum, tonight we're eating something special, not the usual meat that I brought. This is certainly more delicious," said the old woman while unwrapping the cloth and putting something on the plate that Sumi brought.
Pluck up!
A lump of meat was still bleeding and fibrous with a very distinctive fishy smell that immediately made Sumi's taste increase.
"Mom ... Let's eat, aren't you hungry?" sumi asked as her hands began to cut the meat with the knife they had placed on the dining table.
The old woman nodded slowly. He ate meat before going home to increase his energy.
"You just eat first, Mother had already eaten, sorry was mom ate first, it's because mom ran out of energy when fighting with prospective prey," he explained.
"Yes Ma'am, then Sumi eat yes, ma'am," said the girl politely.
The woman nodded. As usual, the obedient Sumi always ate after getting permission from her mother.
That girl is like a bird. Eat when the mother comes home with food, and wait for the return of the mother with a cautious heart.
After receiving permission from her mother, Sumi scooped up pieces of flesh the size of two palms and tore them apart with her tight teeth.
He chews with gusto. The crumble of delicious meat that tastes sweet and smells fishy, the aroma that he loves so much.
Every now and then as he pressed the flesh with his teeth, the liquid that came out from the flesh spurted out and filled the entire cavity of his mouth. Sumi so enjoyed the bite and chew of the flesh that melted and slowly destroyed.
"How's Sumi? do you like this meat?"
Sumi stopped her chewing and her eyes blinked as if assenting.
"What meat is this, Mom? this ... very delicious," he said as he continued his dinner that had been delayed.
The old woman was silent for a while, but then she preferred to hide the truth from her child.
"Young boar meat. She's a snare mom and she wears her skin off before she takes it home" she explained.
"Eumh, Sumi's coming for dinner tomorrow, ma'am. Can ya? let me not be tired again. Sumi bored Bu at home continue and shut herself," Pinta Sumi. He put the piece of meat on the plate and looked at his mother expectantly.
The woman nodded slowly. "You should never leave the house in the afternoon. Just late, and don't be away from home,"
"The outside world is bad. I can't imagine if you meet bad people, you'll die if something happens to you, son," the old man's cry broke, making Sumi's appetite disappear instantly and she feels guilty.
"Mother ..," Sumi was about to approach but her hand was immediately raised, a sign that the woman wanted Sumi to listen to her words.
"Please promise me you won't leave my mother,"
Not yet Sumi spoke, his ears heard the footsteps of horses approaching towards his house.
"Mom! there are horses around our house! let's see, Mom. We can make it the next meal!" Sumi excitedly ran towards the door.
"Sumy! don't open the door!"
