The Origin of the Mardani Family 8

Ratmi then got up, she headed for the door but still hesitated to open it. Because Bu'de's words were told that he would not open the door still ringing in his ears.

"mas.. Is that Darso??"

Ratmi said slowly.

"yes baby.. It's me, come out..!!"

Ratmi was silent for a moment, she was really weighing, whether behind the door was her husband or not.

Instantly he scrunched his forehead.

"no, he's not my husband. Darso never called me dear."

ratmi lirih.

He then retreated back to the bed. Because Ratmi did not open the door, finally the voice of the Darso master turned very heavy, and the pounding from the door grew louder.

"open..!! Open..!!"

Brugh.. Brugh.. Brugh..

Ratmi went back up on the mattress, she covered her entire body with a blanket and covered her ears tightly.

He could only cry and for the morning to come soon.

Until he finally fell asleep.

The door is opened, bu'de dasimah scans around the room, and finds Ratmi asleep with her body covered in a blanket all over her.

Bu'de dasimah Manarik blankets it violently, so Ratmi was surprised and woke up just like that..

"buyde.. Last night I heard.."

Not yet after Ratmi told her what she had experienced last night, ma'de dasimah immediately put his index finger between her lips, gesturing for Ratmi to be quiet.

"now you're ready.."

"get ready.. Where's bu'de going??"

Ratmi asked innocently.

"just follow my orders, nduk. If that's what you want, it's all realized."

answer bu'de dasimah with a flat face mimic.

After Ratmi finished cleaning his body, he rushed to the daimah bu'de on the front porch.

it appears that bu'de dasimah was sitting on a mat, while chewing betel chalk.

"ready ready??"

said bu'de dasimah smile and show his teeth reddened, as a result of chewing betel chalk.

"mum'de"

Reply to ratmi who is now sitting next to Bu'de dasimah.

"all right, now we're there."

"where's bu'de??"

"kan bu'de already said, just follow bu'de's orders if you want everything to happen."

Ratmi shook her head.

Then he followed the footsteps of bu'de dasimah, until his footsteps stopped right in front of the CAVE.

"nadura, nduk. We go inside."

Not wanting to make bu'de dasimah angry again, he was rushing behind bu'de dasimah.

"before proceeding, ma'de will explain what tasks you have to do. The first one, the ascetic on the sacred bed, is only one day and one night only. After that second, you must give the first sacrifice.The third, you must prepare a place to place the sacred bed."

Said bu'de dasimah explain all the rituals that will be done by Ratmi.

"sesajen and others, already bu'de prepared. You just do everything. Whatever you see later, stay focused with your hermitage. Bu'de will stand guard in front of the CAVE"

Ratmi nodded steadily.

...****************...

Harjo, who was very worried about Ratmi's situation, without thinking anymore, Harjo accompanied by Hartini, rushed to visit the residence of the draconian Darso to see Ratmi.

Arriving at the grand house of the Darso manager, the sari was sitting pensively with a flat face, in the front seat of the house.

"mas, it's no mistress sari..!!"

"yes, deck. Yuk, we're approaching the sari mistress."

"assalamualaik... Lady sari.!!"

Hartini.

But the sari was still pensive sitting on a chair, making Harjo frown.

It seems clear that Sari was thinking about something.

"what's wrong with Miss Sari??"

Tanya Harjo astonished.

"assalamualaik... Madam, lady sari...!!"

Shouted Hartini once again.

"waalaikums.. This is hartini.!!"

Answer the sari with sparkling eyes.

with a little running, the sari approached Hartini who had been standing outside the gate earlier.

"I miss you so much, Hartini."

Say the sari while opening the gate, then let them in.

"mistress, is darso's boss at home.?"

Tanya Hartini, while walking towards the front seat of the Darso mansion.

"mas Darso, it's been three days out of town. Sit down, I'll make you a drink."

Answer the sari to let the guest sit.

Fifteen minutes later, the sari brought two glasses of warm tea. And presenting her.

"what's your arrival here, to meet with ratmi.??"

"yes, right lady. We came here very eager to meet my sister Ratmi. I miss him so much, we haven't seen each other in over a year, ma'am."

Harjo replied with teary eyes. Harjo did not want to say that he already knew about Ratmi's condition.

"Ratmi, he..."

Sari stopped her speech.

"is Ratmi not at home, madam.??"

Hartini Sahut.

"yes. Ratmi's not home, Harjo. He went to the forbidden leweung forest near the river next to our plantation."

sari explains the truth.

Harjo was so shocked that he rounded his eyes.

he knew the forest was haunted.

"i want Ratmi there"

Harjo answered spontaneously.

"but, mas... There's danger. Wait till Ratmi comes back."

hartini said trying to prevent her husband from following Ratmi.

"right Harjo, just wait until Ratmi comes back. I think in two or three days he'll be back. In the meantime, you can stay in the pavilion."

not answering anything, Harjo just lowered his head.

"while waiting for Ratmi to return, we try to visit Dito, mas."

bring Hartini.

"ah, yes.you're right, I almost forgot about Dito."

Harjo said with a small smile.

...****************...

The ascetic begins. It seemed that the offerings and so on were ready in front of Ratmi, to summon the figure of a head creature and a face similar to a wolf. In front of the CAVE bu'de dasimah was chanting something.

It's been almost a day, one night Ratmi was imprisoned in that CAVE.

Suddenly the wind began to blow hard on the face of Ayu Ratmi.

A black shadow surrounded Ratmi. Not wanting his asceticism to fail, Ratmi tried to ignore the figure.

Now the figure of a wolf-faced creature with a row of pointed black teeth, standing right in front of Ratmi.

The figure appears to be eating greedily the offerings provided by bu'de dasimah. There are heads of man*sia, venison liver, and water that has been mixed with seven forms of flowers.

the session was gone, not left.

"THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORSHIP, I WILL GIVE YOU ALL YOUR REQUESTS. JUST SO YOU GIVE ALL THE RIGHT OFFERINGS EVERY FULL MOON."

Say the creepy creature with a heavy tone of voice.

Ratmi who heard her, then developed a triumphant smile.

After the figure of the creepy creature disappeared somewhere.

Ratmi ggas approached bu'de dasimah.

"frank..."

Ratmi called bu'de dasimah with a glowing face.

"congratulations, Ratmi. You managed to conquer that figure. Go home with that sacred bed, meet your husband. And look how it's changing."

"but... How do I bring her bu'de?"

"don't need you to take her, just go home. He'll be in your house."

Ratmi frowned, not understanding what bu'de dasimah meant.

But Ratmi impatiently wanted to immediately see the change in attitude of her husband, then he rushed away to leave bu'de dasimah in the CAVE.

while bu'de dasimah just smiled wryly looking at it.
