The Charm Behind the Mist

Suspicions.

~Happy Reading~

Miss Nancy and Carren have been waiting on the terrace, which has become a storage area for decorating supplies. Because Carren had locked the door of the house, so that when the driver Parry came they just left for the funeral home.

Not long after, Carren exits seeing that Parry's car has stopped in front of his house. "Yoo, Ma. That's Parry's car." Said Carren, while picking up one of the flower baskets. Because her mother held the other flower basket.

All their luggage was placed by driver Parry in the trunk of the car, and Carren opened the car door for Mama. He came back to lock the gate. After they had boarded the car, driver Parry looked back.

"Miss Carren, where are we going?" Ask Parry's driver, because Parry just told him to pick up Carren at his house and drive him to the grave.

"Ooh yes, sir. Sorry, I forgot." Carren said as he patted her on the forehead, then conveyed their purpose as well as the address of the funeral home. Driver Parry nodded in understanding, then ran his car to the destination.

After exiting on the highway, driver Parry felt suspicious there was a car following him. Because he felt a black car behind him, it seemed to have been seen when he was about to stop at Carren's house.

Mr. Husin, the driver of Parry ignored the car and focused on the road that was rather crowded with vehicles. Because to the funeral home, they have to pass the area that is famous for traffic without seeing rush hour.

When he arrived at the funeral home, there were already many cars parked and Mr. Husin did not get parking close to the funeral home. It makes Mr. Husin a bit confused looking for a good and safe parking space.

"Ngga papa, sir. We'll just get down here, let's walk to the funeral home." Carren said, when he saw the driver Parry still wanted to find the parking closest to the funeral home.

"Good, Miss. Call me when the show is over. I'd like to find a safer parking space." Said Mr. Husin, then went down to open the car door for Carren and Miss Nancy.

"Thank you, Sir. Next time if it's us, you don't have to open the car door, yeah. Let us open it ourselves." Carren said, because he felt bad to be treated that way. Mr. Husin nodded in understanding, but in his heart would report to his boss. Mr. Husin was worried, his boss did not accept and was angry with him.

Because during being a driver Parry, the first time Mr. Husin was asked to deliver or pick up Carren, in addition to his family. Therefore, Mr. Husin was very careful and maintained his attitude towards Carren.

While looking for parking, Mr. Husin saw again the black car that had been seen before, was looking for parking as well. This made him suspicious and kept looking inside the car.

After seeing there is a good parking lot, Mr. Husin parked his car. Because Parry had told Pak Husin to take him to the tomb, so Mr. Husin parked the car in a safe place to get out easily.

Mr. Husin again looked at the black car he suspected, to see who came out of the car. Because it could be that he thinks wrong, maybe the car of people who will be served also.

But for a long time waiting, no one came out of the car, Mr. Husin again felt suspicious. He wondered if it would be told to his boss about his suspicions.

On the other hand; Carren and Miss Nancy have reached the funeral home and are already full of mourners. Because Ms. Florens has a large family and there are also mourners from her children's friends and her husband.

Carren is grateful, seeing Rosna, Ichad and Akri have come and have prepared a seat for him and his mother. Because they've talked about it in the WA group, if you want to come to the funeral home together.

Carren walked up to their seats to give the sow baskets, to be held by Rosna and Ichad. As Miss Nancy stood waiting for Carren while holding a chrysanthemum arrangement that Carren made to be placed near the coffin of Ms. Florens.

When he saw the bouquet that Carren was carrying placed near the coffin, Ms. Florens' son took it and placed it in the coffin. She thanked Carren and Miss Nancy for giving her Mama's beautiful flower arrangements.

Ms. Nancy and Carren greeted Ms. Florens' children and husband with teary eyes. After greeting the bereaved family, Carren and Miss Nancy came out and sat down near Rosna, Ichad and Akri

Carren ignored Sisil's dislike of him, as he regretted his condolences. Especially when the child Bu Florens took a bouquet of flowers underneath, Sisil immediately looked at her with a face that did not like.

"Sister Ichad, Brother Akri and Ros want to come to the tomb as well?" Carren asked after sitting down with them. Then the three of them nodded.

"Then come with us, yes. We're taking the car together to the tomb." Carren said, because he wanted to ride in the car with them.

"I'm on the bike, Carren. Let all of you from the tomb go straight home." Ichad. The same thing was said by Akri, because they used the motor to the funeral home.

"Then Ros's with us in the car." Carren said, and Rosna nodded her head.

"I'm coming with Kak Carren to the tomb, but I'm coming home with Kak Akri, yes." Said Rosna, because she had promised to follow Akri to the tomb and also went straight home with him.

Akri and Carren nodded in understanding, because Rosna and Akri were in line to go home. They are both one lane, Akri will pass through the area where Rosna lives.

Not long after, they saw Sisil and the three employees of Bu Florens were busy organizing the mourners who came. They also help tidy up the bouquets that arrive, sent by colleagues and family. Ichad, Akri and Rosna are not invited by Sisil, so they remain seated with Carren.

"Sister Ichad, it turns out that Sisil is Aunt Florens' nephew from her husband, anyway. I thought Aunt Florens' own nephew." Carren said, after seeing the resemblance of the face of Sisil with the face of her husband Bu Florens.

"Yes, Carren. Pantesan Aunt Florens could do nothing to him if he did anything wrong. Aunt Florens could only murmur and temper herself." Ichad recalled what happened while they were still working with Bu Florens.

Ichad and Rosna look at the faces of Sisil and Florens' husband after hearing what Carren has to say. Realizing the resemblance, they nodded in agreement.

"Yes, yeah. But why does he not like Carren so much? Does Brother Carren have made him the same?" Rosna asked, who noticed Sisil's face and attitude towards Carren.

"Indeed Carren didn't do anything to him. But Carren's face and heart did it. Try to remember again, his heart always itching to be scratched if there is Carren nearby." Ichad said softly, making them smile. Carren directly hit Ichad's shoulder.

"Yes, Sister Ichad. If you remember all that, I want to scratch the guy with the hoe." Said Rosna slowly, remembering the face and speech of Sisil who was always cynical if adjacent to Carren. Rosna's words made them smile.

"You think, Sisil kebon?" Akri asked, making Rosna hit Akri's hand, as the mourner sitting in front of them looked up with a smile. Carren and Miss Nancy just smiled and were grateful, they were sitting in the back row of seats. If in the middle, many people will smile at their jabs.

After finishing the service, Carren contacted Mr. Husin to ask for his parking space, as they were going to the tomb. When he finished the call with Carren, Mr. Husin saw the car he suspected was no longer in his parking lot. It made his heart a little relieved and reduced his sense of curiosity.
