The Sound of Tears

The show will start

While mom and dad went to work, I went with bi Siska to go to the market to buy all the necessities for the event later in the day. Actually the mother asked aunt to shop at the supermarket in the city center, but I proposed to buy ingredients in traditional markets only. Because in addition to cheap, by shopping in traditional markets, we can also help the economy of traders who are there.

The atmosphere of the market this morning has not seen many buyers. But the traders were already busy holding their trading stalls. Hmmm.I think I am currently in the city of the field, where I was raised by a very kind woman and took care of me from childhood.

Hustle and bustle of the voices of the traders who were offering their merchandise sounded so excited.

"kang, how much beef is there?" ask bi Siska when buying meat.

"one hundred and sixty thousand mbak, how many kilos would you buy?" ask the merchant.

"buy two kilo kang" Bi Siska said.

Then the butcher picked up our order.

"this is mba, so the total of all is one hundred and twenty thousand" said the akang.

"this is kang" said bi Siska while giving three hundred thousand bills and one fifty thousand bills.

"this is mba" added the akang while returning fifty thousand bills to bi Siska.

"lho. but the total is three hundred and twenty thousand kang, this is the return of kang's advantages"

"that's a discount mba, think of it as my trader, early in the morning there is a clear buy" added the trader.

Then bi Siska took me to go to a spice merchant, vegetables, and there was one thing I just knew. It turns out that bi Siska has a lot of contacts in this traditional market.

"non Shella, don't tell mistress.. "

"why bi?"

"yes, because aunty is afraid, later the mistress knows that her aunt is shopping in this traditional market"

"lho.. Why bi? it's good we shop here bi, all the merchandise here looks fresh and seems to be free from harmful substances"

"yes non, you're angry that aunt is shopping in this market"

"auntie less know also non, anyway do not let the master and mistress know if we buy it here"

"iya bi. oh yes, after this we go where bi?"

"aibi Taste all the groceries on the list we have bought non" said bi Siska while looking at the list of groceries that had been given by mama.

"yes, now we should just go home bi. when we stay two hours bi"

By booking a ride through the G-Car app, we immediately returned to the luxury apartment.

Arriving at the apartment bi Siska immediately washed the vegetables and prepared all the necessities for the event to be held at one noon.

"Non Shella should just take a break, let auntie do all this" said bi Siska when she saw me kecapean after touring the market earlier.

"Good bi.. Shella entered the room first huh bi" I said as I stepped into the room.

"good non" said bi Siska.

Finally the long-awaited time arrived, mom and dad had also come home from their office.

"Shella, get ready for the show to start soon" exclaimed mama from my doorstep.

"iya ma.." answered me, who was listening to music on my phone. Then I immediately got out of bed and stepped into the bathroom, after which I dressed up and changed my clothes with a white dress that papa bought last night.

A beautiful white dress, decorated with beautiful pearls on her hands. 'This dress must be very expensive' I muttered while watching my appearance in front of the mirror. 'Shella... Is this you? oh my God, this dress is so pretty, ' I said as if I couldn't believe what I was wearing right now.

TOK TOK TOK

"Shella. The show is about to start, son, the Cathlin family has come, come quickly here son" exclaimed mama from my doorstep.

"Yes ma" I replied, who was still lost in happiness. Then I immediately rushed out of my room.
