The Ruler And The Upik Abu
Part 7 Who is Melati????



It turned out to be the day before noon, when Mbak Rini came.


" Hi... are you okay Dek?? " ask Rini's mother to me..


" Yes Ma'am, is adek okay, Mommy from where?? "


"Bak went to the consul to the gynecologist earlier, all shopping for some baby equipment needs. Mumpung can get out the Deck! " he said while putting his groceries in his prison room.


" Yes Ma'am" I said without asking much more.


" Yes, take a shower first. Dah sour smell ne sweat, sticky again feel on the body". Grutu Mbak Rini himself.


" Yes Ma'am" I said as usual.


Rini went to her bathroom.


For a moment I was just silent myself, my mind drifting far out of nowhere. Until the name Melati crossed my mind.


Who is Melati??


What is the relationship between Melati and Mr Rey?


How close is Melati, Mbak Rini, Mbak Dian, and Alm Rini's own husband??


A lot of questions about jasmine in my head. I have to ask Rini later.


Not long after I woke up from my daydream, I heard footsteps heading towards our room.


Who is this person who came to our room.??


My head was raised waiting for the direction of the voice and it turned out that the person who came was Mr Rey, what. who brought him here???


He opened the door to my room and forcibly pulled my hand, I don't want to fight him. Because no matter how hard I fight, he will never give up and give up. He will still be the strongest champion here.


With a little run I followed where Mr. Rey was taking me, my hand in his grip so firmly, that it could not be for me to run from him.


He took me to his vacant lot.


With all his strength he pushed me so that it made me fall into the ground mixed with sharp pebbles.


Of course it made my palm bleed.


"Listen to me, I want this land you work on. Since I will plant roses on this land, work them as quickly as possible. I want tomorrow afternoon done, do you understand what I want heh???!!! "


" Good sir, I'll work on it quickly".


" Good, if you don't finish tomorrow. I'll teach you a lesson, keep it!!! "


What is my God, what this man really wants. Why is he so cold and cruel to me. What is my fault with her that she hates me so much???


I don't know what else to do, with all my might try to stand up and start my job. This land is not too broad, but if only I work on it, it will definitely not be finished tomorrow. It's hard to understand what Mr. Rey wants. Why would he plant roses in this place??


Never mind, the longer I daydream and ask myself, the longer this garden will be finished.


I must hurry, so as not to get punishment from Master Rey.


I began to gather my strength and my new job began.


Withstanding the pain in both palms of my hands I began to hold the hoe and began to hoe making beds for planting roses.


Slowly but surely I'm starting to make what Mr. Rey wants.


Seriously hoeing the ground, I was startled by the sound of others laughing at me.


Turns out that guy is Elsy, Mr. Rey's new favorite girl. What more did he want so he came to this place.


" Hey.. What did you see heh?? Hurry up and do what Rey told you, don't just look that way! Strange shit, not done.


Denger yes, I will make your life suffer here. So don't mess with me, okay???!!! "


One more thing that makes me more confused, it feels new 2 times with this we met. Why does Elsy hate me so much?? What is my fault with her that she is so cold and angry with me??


Elsy just gave a fierce smile to me as it passed from before me. My head is filled with question marks, now it's not just Mr. Rey who hates me. But Elsy also followed by not liking me, it feels like I have never made a mistake on them both. For a moment I forgot my curiosity in the figure of Melati, but as far as I was in my head was just a question about the figure of Melati.


I went back to the hoe, the scoop and the ground that was in front of my eyes.


Slowly I started digging up the ground to make a bed and forgot what made me curious.


The sun was already on top of my head, I paused for a moment to rest. Dahaga began to haunt me, I was thirsty and wanted to run towards the source of the water to gulp it to my satisfaction. But where can I get it...


Waving my hand on my face just to create the wind, I heard Si Mbok nagging from the kitchen.


I just smiled when I saw it coming, what I was waiting for finally came. Si Mbok came up with a tray containing drinks and meals, ah... Mbok knew I was almost dead of thirst! I murmured in my heart...


" Oh ndok, ndok, long ago did Mbok come?? "


" Yes Mbok, I'm really thirsty! I almost died of thirst, I can't stand it! "


"The ndok... Mbok does not know that you are here, if you do not listen to Elsy talking to his friends earlier could not be found out if you are behind."


I just smiled hearing Si Mbok nagging.


" But now you know I'm here, don't nag anymore. Tar is getting older you. "my god to Mbok who still nagging slang while pouring water and preparing the food he brought for me.


" Here, drink and eat. Do not get you sick, let alone the Master told you to make his rose garden. "


" Yes Mbok, thank you for watching me during my time here. I don't know who else to share with, I'm new here and I don't know anyone. But Mbok is willing to accept and pay attention to me, it has made me happy and feel appreciated. "


Mbok just smiled and stroked my hair gently.


" Eat, don't get sick. Mbok will help you and pay attention to you, so be healthy always. "


" Yes Mbok. I am happy because I have Mbok here, I am happy because Mbok, Mbak Rini and Mbak Dian are watching me like family. That's enough for me and it's keeping me calm."


" Yes, we are happy that you accepted us and have great respect for us. Although it's only been a few days we met but Mbok really likes your attitude, be good here, be healthy and hopefully Mr. Rey can be fair and accept and treat you just like Elsy"


" Amin Mbok, hopefully. Because I don't know what my fault was so fatal to her that she acted cold and hated me so much. What sin did I commit that I should receive such an unpleasant treatment from him. The look in his eyes, his smile, his gestures when he saw me was so clear that he hated me so much."


" You have to be strong, you have to be patient and pray a lot so that he can accept you and treat you like everyone else. Get him to like you and accept you."


I have to make sure Mbok can accept me, I've tried to obey what he wants. But it was always wrong in his eyes. "


" Patience to Ndok, ease2and his hard and petrified heart will melt and melt. Yes, eat and drink. It is time for lunch, so that later you can continue your duties. "


" Yes Mbok, thanks for being nice to me! "


" Yes Ndok, same. "
