Chapter 25. Visit the contract of Yudi.



While Yudi is doing delicious in his rented house along with other women, unlike Alin who is busy making cooking spices to sell cooked vegetables tomorrow morning.


If previously Alin always complained in his heart because he faced the wrong behavior from her husband, especially when he was busy working as he is today. Unlike what the woman was feeling now, she felt calmer and her mind seemed lighter after returning from the place of worship this afternoon.


Alin always remembered the words of Romo when speaking at the place, which made him more able to control himself so as not to complain in living daily life.


"Truely said by the Father, this world is Anicca (Non-eternal). Born, sick, old and dead. It all includes Dukkha (Suffering) and we as living beings, will certainly experience all that. Abundant treasures will not be brought to death and he who has a beautiful face will all be lost inedible age"


"Then what can we be proud of when we are in this impermanent world?" muttered Alin recalled a piece of the speaker's words today.


Alin let out a long sigh, if he remembered Yudi's cruel behavior to him for several years, he was very emotional and always angry. It was very desirable to curse her husband's unkind nature, there was even a desire of the heart to eliminate him from this world.


But soon Alin realized something, where anger can damage himself and anger also gives the burden of thought that can reduce his health.


Because the disease actually comes from unhealthy thoughts and also a dirty heart.


In addition, Alin believed that there is a result of Karma or the result of actions during life, which happens to anyone creature in the world. Be it good Karma, or bad Karma and sooner or later, all of it will bear fruit if it comes in time.


"Huft finally sorted out also make seasonings, stay cooked vegetables tomorrow morning."


Alin cleaned all kitchen utensils after use, then put them back to their original place to be neat. And then he went into the room to rest.


...----------------...


Next morning.


School.


As usual, Alin brought his wares in the form of cooked vegetables that he made himself when driving Yuan to school, while holding baby Marlina in his cradle.


The mothers who drove their children to school began to come to Alin and they began to make trade transactions.


"Sir, bring the chicken ngohiong?" ask a mother.


"There's Miss," Alin replied and then pulled out a bag of crackles filled with ngohiong.


Ngohiong itself is a food from the skin of tofu, which is filled with finely chopped meat (can chicken, shrimp or ba-bi meat) then mixed with some vegetables such as carrots and chives, onion, then added ngohiong seasoning or powder five spices/five spice powder.


Five-spice spice powder/ngohiong is a mixture of five spices that include all five flavors, namely sweet, salty, spicy, bitter and also sour.


The ingredients to make this ngohiong seasoning there are various variants, but the most commonly used are lawang flowers, cloves, cinnamon, pepper/pepper and fennel seeds pounded until smooth into one.


In addition to the typical cooking aroma enhancer, the use of this spice powder is also useful to reduce the fishy odor of the meat used.



"I want 5 ya ngohiong chicken," said the mother.


"Yes Miss," replied Alin put 5 ngohiong chicken into the bag.


"Okay, the fragrance is very ngohiongnya. I want 2!" other mothers.


"Yes Miss," Alin replied in spirit.


After a quiet condition, Yulan appeared to approach Alin who was cleaning up the remnants of his merchandise.


"Yes, thank God," said Alin, refusing to say much.


"Eh Alin, kemaren malem cave see your man bring young girl into the contract, saucy dah! Keep just this morning tuh chick out the same guy you're shaking by riding a motorbike, don't know where to go. But it seems they are both happy, end laughing together. It's so friendly again," said Yulan began to heat up.


Alin felt a pain in his heart, but soon he took a breath and exhaled slowly. "Well, who's he going to go with, it's not Alin's business anymore!"


"It's none of your business anymore? Kan you bini legit Lin, your time does not want to crash hit a girl anyway! Cave if you are you, already cave run-and-tuh girls keep hitting cave he all-out!" gaol Yulan.


Alin looked at Yulan. "Sir, Alin is ready to split with Koh Yudi. He went from home, it was his own will and he wanted to go along with the girl whom he was entitled to. Alin don't want to be dizzy!" rigid reply.


Yulan screeched. "Curtain! You are so patient bini very, but it's up to you deh, the important cave already nyampein what the cave saw ya. And if you want to know where Yudi lakik you live right now, he's contracted again at his house, koh Herman!" reply and leave.


Alin gulped down his choked saliva, while holding his chest which was in pain sliced open. For a moment she thought, what is the need to go to her husband's rented house and ask for an explanation about his current relationship.


But will he be able to face the harsh reality? Where is the news of her husband who is now living together with other women.


But no matter how sad it was, he would still go to ask her.


"Right, I have to go there tonight as well," Inner Alin was determined.


...***...


Her night.


After leaving Yuan and Marlina to Melan, Alin finally ventured to a rented house without a fence, which is believed to be the shelter of her current husband after leaving the house.


And it is reinforced by the existence of a motorcycle owned by Yudi that is parked in the front yard.


Alin took a deep breath and ventured to knock on the rented door, but his steps came to a halt, when his sense of sight caught something by mistake.


Where there is a pair of sandals of a woman next to her husband's sandals.


At once Alin's body felt trembling and limp, and the heart beat faster than usual. He swallowed his salivary coarsely and decided to continue his desire.


Geck! Geck! Geck!


The door was knocked and soon a voice from inside said.


"Yes wait a minute!" tell someone from within.


And that voice sounded like a woman, which added to Alin's unease upon hearing it. His heart was so furious, especially if the Yulan story proved to be true.


She could never forgive her husband if he was found guilty, but what happened after he decided to do this?


"Who are you looking for?" ask a woman from behind the door. The woman who is none other than Tina, Yudi's new lover or arguably his future wife.


"Where is Yudi?" ask Alin back with her face and both eyes reddened.
