"Assalamu'alaikum" said Mang Ibing.
Ratmi heard the voice of people greeting from outside, soon she quickly opened the door.
"Wa alaikumsalam, uh sir, has gone home, is that sir?" ratmi asked, seeing Mang Ibing carrying a plastic package.
"Oh, this is ma'am, corn, Mr. in love with Bidin, was the same father in front of the Sukasif stall. Actually he wants to come here, but not good, he feels awkward, uh really fit to meet the Father, yes already, all he loves this to the Father," replied mang Ibing.
Mang Ibing handed Ratmi a plastic package, then sat down in the dining room.
Ratmi kept the package containing the corn in the kitchen. Then offer hitampa coffee to her husband, "Father want coffee?"
"You atuh, Tumben Ibu kape nawarin everything, usually directly in the tattoo in front of the Father."
Mang Ibing fanned his body on his hat, a hat made of woven bamboo, able to provide comfort when fanning.
"The father of the asar prayer first yes ma'am, take a bath later, afraid of kssorean," said mang Ibing.
"Yes sir, the ominous mother earlier, just finished praying, eh Father came home. There was prayer, later I made coffee with boiled corn," said Ratmi.
Mang Ibing knows his wife very well. He smelled a strange gurgle at Ratmi, his attitude was not as usual.
Because usually, without offering, Ratmi directly put black coffee on the table, or in a bamboo bale located in front of the house.
But now, he offered it first.
Mang Ibing stepped foot into the bathroom. He looked around his house, there seemed to be something strange, Mang Ibing thought.
But mang Ibing deliberately kept quiet, so that his emotions could be controlled.
He also saw his wife as tired, because now he was the one who brought her lunch and Ratmi also had to walk a considerable distance.
After the Asar prayer, mang Ibing sat in front of the house, precisely on a bamboo bale, while enjoying black coffee and boiled jangung.
At that time, Ratmi sat there. The atmosphere was silent, Ibing deliberately did not start the conversation.
He saw his wife looking agitated, but Mang Ibing let him.
Finally, Ratmi ventured to talk about what really happened.
"Sir, there's something I want to talk about" Ratmi said.
"Yes ma'am, just talk, what's going on?" sahut mang Ibing flat. Mang Ibing at that time while rolling a cigarette.
"Sir, Yati Pak, Yati ran away again," Ratmi said, her voice very soft.
Hearing that, Mang Ibing took a deep breath, then corrected his seat.
Mang Ibing's eyes straight ahead, he tried to hold back his emotions. But over time, Mang Ibing realized that Yati's business was his responsibility, not his wife's.
"Yes, Ma'am, from earlier you have expected it, because from earlier the room was closed, and you are sure if the room is locked," said Mang Ibing.
Then Mang Ibing sighed deeply and corrected his seat.
Mang Ibing again said, "Later if Ytak come home, better just shut up, not be angry, we also do not know Bubapa who actually he feels, will be quiet, will be quiet, will be silent, we see what Yati wants, when she talks, yankita listen, but don't ask her once in a while what she's done outside."
Seeing her husband's wise attitude, Ratmi was very surprised and felt very surprised.
Then Ratmi approached while holding her husband's shoulder,
"Sir, are you okay? Why has your attitude changed? Are you angry with Mom?"
Ratmi was speechless, she sighed deeply. Her heart was relieved to see the wise attitude of her husband, though rarely seen.
Ratmi's heart was not only relieved, but also moved to hear the words of her husband, how not? Usually, Ibing always blamed herself as a mother who could not educate children, always protesting with all the policies Ratmi did.
Suddenly Ratmi felt touched, and her two eyeballs began to expand. Ratmi's eyes began to be blocked by the grains of water that pooled in her eyelids.
In order to cover up her feelings, Redmi immediately switched the conversation,
" it's late in the afternoon, sir, I'm taking a shower first."
Without waiting for an answer from Mang Ibing, Ratmi immediately moved from her seat, her legs stepping into the house.
Moments later when Ratmi was in the shower, someone came over.
The man was riding a motorbike by piggybacking a woman.
At that time Ibing was busy enjoying black coffee and boiled corn provided by Ratmi, therefore Ibing did not pay too much attention to Who came.
Then suddenly there was a voice greeting, "Assalamualaikum."
It was then that Mang Ibing turned his head towards the source of the voice, then was surprised to have Mang Ibing see Who was coming.
Mang Ibing said as he shouted,
" Yati!!!"
Yati looked up and looked down. He was so scared of his father. Yati was afraid that Mang Ibing would be angry with her, and would drive out Ujang who was escorting Yati at that time.
Immediately Mang Ibing got off the bamboo bale, and walked towards the bamboo fence then opened it for Yati.
" who are you?" Ask Mang Ibing.
Yati nervously turned to Ujang who was still standing there, precisely Ujang standing about a meter from where Yati was standing.
" with Yati Pak's friend" replied Yati.
Then Ujang walked over, and introduced himself,
"I'm Ujang Sir, Yati's friend."
Mang Ibing nodded, then invited Ujang to enter.
"Let's go in, we can make coffee first," invited Ibing to Ujang.
Seeing the response of the Ibing man, Ujang also became a big head. With a bright smile, Ujang also replied to the invitation of Mang Ibing, "Well, it can be sir, all I also want to approach the Father."
Mang Ibing scrunched his forehead, "That fast?!" mang Ibing in his heart.
"Let's go in and in, don't hesitate, we can talk here," said Mang Ibing.
They sat in a bamboo bale, while Yati went inside to make coffee for Ujang.
"What a strange father, why are you not angry with Yati? What's up, huh? Though from earlier this heart dag dig dug, Jacob really Father will be angry Sin front kang Ujang, uh this is not even, even tell kang Ujang in, really this strange!" yati said in her heart.
Yati also made black coffee for Ujang. Once so, Yati also brought it to the front of the terrace, precisely placed on a bamboo bale.
After laying the coffee for Ujang, Yati rushed inside.
Yati sat behind the curtain, her hearing was sharpened.
