Red Hooded Girl

Travelling Opi

Monday morning

At the residence of the Rizal and Aya families.

Aya was feeding her two children, Ai and Ea while humming with the rhythm of the child's song 'Are you sleeping'.

Eat porridge, eat porridge.

A lot, a lot of.

Let the stomach be full, let the stomach be full

And healthy and strong.

While Rizal was busy watering some kinds of ornamental plants in pots neatly arranged on the terrace next to his house.

Fever of ornamental plants that hit the community lately, also hit this couple. Aya and Rizal who do not understand about ornamental plants, a week ago bought several types of ornamental plants at once. The reason besides wanting to be like people, following the trend is also to beautify the house to look more beautiful.

"Mii... Umi's... How come these leaves are just like that?" asked Rizal while paying attention to one type of plant.

"It's Bi" replied Aya.

"Yes Umi... Here look geh! I think it's eaten by a caterpillar or a grasshopper on its leaves."

Aya who was feeding her two children also approached Rizal. "Ih Abi's... It was a hole from there. It's called Widow Bolong" he explained.

"Herems are called Sundel Bolong."

"Not Sundel Bolong Bi... Widow Bolong."

"Well... Dowager Bolong?!"

"Yes, Abi."

"Keep Umi ain't buying Duda Bolong all of you."

"There is no Abi."

"What the heck Aya Tea is the same A Ijal how to talk that way. What's a hole?" ask Rahma who joined the tour.

"Now again the Widow Bolong" replied Aya.

"Oh. This is Widow Bolong. The justification is yes, it turns out," said Rahma enthusiastically while touching the Widow Bolong plant.

Not long after, when they were still discussing about Widow Bolong, Bi Inah who used to help at the family home Rizal Aya came.

"Assalamualaikum" said Bi Inah.

"Waalaikum salam" answered everyone.

"Bi Inah, why did the tumben come during the day? Usually six o'clock has come," asked Aya.

"Yes sorry Nong Aya. I woke up bad luck. You know, last night he slept," replied Bi Inah.

"Currently... Aihs... After doing Bik," Rizal's tease.

"Wah.. had finished staying up Bi Inah," said Rahma.

"So it was last night after attending the wedding of the Mimin," said Bi Inah.

"What??" sahut Aya, Rizal and Rahma.

"Married married??" sahut the three back compact.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Who did you marry, Bik?" ask the three together.

"Waitwait... This is why we can be very compact, yes" said Rizal.

"Continue Bi Inah," said Aya.

"Mimin married the same who contracted in the contract of Pak Haji RW. The guy who is handsome, his hair is shabby. Her name's...." Bi Inah scratched her head as a sign of being thinking.

"God" said Rahma.

"His name is God."

"Can I get married suddenly?" ask Aya.

"So the story, last night people caught God at the house of Pak Haji RW with Mimin. While Pak Haji RW and his family are going to Malingping if it is not wrong. Continue to be visited lanang it does not wear clothes, just use a color doang. So, the people accuse God and Mimin that has done so. Continues to... "

"Mimin can't be like that" Rahma said.

"That's why Auntie Geh thought so. But people have misunderstood. The god was beaten up by the citizens. Keep fitting Haji Zaenudin come, finally Mimin same God married."

"Astagfirullah. Rahma wants to go to Mimin's house first yes," said Rahma.

"Teteh come, Ma," said Aya.

"Wood."

"Umi don't have to come, just here," Rizal said.

"Why Bi?"

"If the story is really like what Bi Inah said earlier, it means that Mimin is currently in shock. Let enough Rahma go there. Rahma is Mimin's best friend. Don't go there."

"Hmmm.yes."

"Ma, tell Mimin. if today you want permission not to enter work first, Aa allow it so."

"Ready A,"

Rahma passed by to Mimin's house.

*****

Mimin just finished telling Rahma about last night. He poured out all the burdens of his heart and his feelings for Rahma.

"Patience is Min. It may be a test. Believe me, the people who have accused you must be in his heart also he doubted and thought that you might not do the act of blasphemy," said Rahma, holding Mimin's hand.

"You just explain. Their accusation and their material will be a field of reward for you, right" Rahma continued later.

Mimin smiled and hugged Rahma. "Thank you Rahma. Believe me," he said.

"Yes Neng Mimin geulis. Who is now the Madam of God," continued Rahma.

Mimin releases a hug and pinches Rahma. "Oh, Rahma. Hobby is so bad at me."

Rahma smiled. "Smile at Min."

"Yes a smile" Mimin said, ending with a smile.

"Min. I'm sorry I can't take long. Want to work, afraid of bad luck," said Rahma.

"Ma.. please tell me Ijal dong today I'm not allowed to enter work."

"Silent... Before you ask permission. My brother the handsome boss has already given permission first."

Mimim smiling. "Thank you, Rahma."

"OKs. I'm going home yes. Assalamualaikum."

"Waalaikum salam. I'm sorry, ma, I'm not moving forward."

"No problemo" said Rahma, holding her right thumb and blinking one eye. Then it passed leaving Mimin.

When Rahma reached the terrace, she passed by God and Sol.

"Mina?? Mimin mean??" Rahma asked back.

"Yes Mina... Mimin" replied the Lord.

"Yes, I'm a friend of Mimin" Rahma said.

"How Mina is doing. Is it better?" ask the Lord to worry.

Rahma smiled. "God is better. But preferably, let Mimin himself first," he said.

"Thank God that Mina is better" said Dewa.

"You're Mimin's friend?" asked Sol who had been staring at Rahma's amazement. And obviously this is an unfortunate question because at the beginning God had asked with the exact same sentence.

Rahma nodded while smiling. "Yes Kang, I'm Mimin's friend."

"Oh... What's name?" sol asked with a smile of his best.

"I'm Rahma."

"Not your name, but. the names of our children later."

Rahma laughed stifledly while covering her mouth with both hands. Indeed, he had heard a conversation with a sentence exactly like this. But because who threw a fight was a guy with a cheek cubby with a look of a witty face made him unable to help laugh.

God is the head of Sol. "Yes... Even the bigger."

"The name is also Wa's business," Sol murmured.

"Neng Rahma introduced my name to Soleh Munawar. Salken yes," said Sol as she extended her hand.

Rahma clasped her hands on her chest. "Yes Kang Soleh. Greetings, "he said.

"Can Neng Rahma help with my problem?"

Rahma knitted her two eyebrows. "ee... What's the problem with Kang?"

"I'm on state duty."

"Oh, yeah. What country's Kang in charge?"

"Task noting WhatsApp contact number. But strangely your number is not in my contact list. Can Neng Rahma help me by giving her WA contact number?"

The gods returned to guard Sol's head. "Conscious Munawar!!"

"Chihara..." Rahma giggled amusedly. "I'm sorry. Going to work, afraid of bad luck. Assalamualaikum," he said.

"Greetings" answered the two.

"Sorry my friend who tada konslet ya Neng," continued the God before Rahma passed.

"Well... I haven't got the phone number yet" lamented Sol who stared at Rahma's departure.

"Lo didn't get Rahma's phone number... Emm... The cave gave me Rahmat's phone number??" ledek Dewa's.

Sol hit the arm of the God. "I'm a fencer!!"

"Hahahahaha." the two laughed together.

 ******

Monday night.

The night sky was so beautiful with the appearance of a half moon and a sprinkling of stars. Mimin was in his room. He spent all his time in his room. Last night left a deep trauma. He was embarrassed to even leave the house. Although he did nothing wrong.

“Bah... Opi hasn't come home yet. Already want nine.” From inside the room he heard the chatter of Mami and Abah.

“Try calling,” says Abah.

“Udah.. but the number is not active,” replied Mami.

Mimin who heard it from inside the room immediately grabbed the phone and then made a call to the number “Adikku Manis” but instead the phone operator who answered his call. He leaves the room to join Mami and Abah.

“Opi hasn't come home yet, Mih?” ask Mimin.

“Before Tea, the number is also not active,” replied Mami.

“Tadi Opi no message with Mami, afraid to stay at home who,” said Abah.

“Neg, Bah. That morning, Opi diem. Tumben didn't say much. Pas Mami asked ‘Opi why?’ uh even gababan, diem aja,” said Mami.

Hearing Mami's words, Mimin rushed to meet someone.

“Teteh where to go?” ask Mami.

“Mau to next door,” Mimin replied.

“You'll see Husband?”

Mami's words made him stop his steps for a moment.  He was hesitant to continue the step because the word “Suami”. But his concern for Opi convinced him to meet “Suami”.

Geck... Geck.. Geck..

Mimin knocked on the door of the number one contract. Not long after, God opened the door.

“Mina.”

Mimin fused his eyebrows at a name that felt foreign to him.

“Your name is Jasmina right? I call Mina, can I? “

Mimin hesitated. “Ya,” said short.

“What's Mina?”

“Opi has not returned... Can you help find Opi?”

“Of course. Can I have an Opi phone number?”

“Opi number is active. He turned off his phone. But just try it.. This is the number 08181234xxxx.”

“Ok. I'll try to find Opi. Can I have her friend Opi's phone number?”

Mimin shook his head. “I don't know.”

“Oh, Ok.”

“Can I have your phone number??”
