WOMEN WITHOUT TEARS

Dpo Dance

Then when pushing Anton's body in front of the photo.

"Kneel !" the orders when on Anton.

Anton obeys Bila's orders, kneeling before the photo of their parents.

"Consider your actions to papi and mami !. Accountable !"

When I snapped at Anton. His voice trembled withstanding the cries and anger.

"Responsibility Anton !" when said again and immediately burst out his cry.

"You killed the stars. You killed my sister. You don't know yourself !. You're nobody in this house. You're just a foster child !. Remember that !... Wicked you are !" bila said on the sidelines of her cry. He poured his anger on Anton.

Neighbors who heard confessions when it was aghast. Especially the Ipeh. I didn't know Anton was a foster kid. All this time they didn't know.

Neighbors, colleagues and families were far away; not knowing. Even the closest family does not know. Only the late papi and mami, the late Theo and his wife. Danu the lawyer and the late orphanage manager. Anton's place was raised to be a child by papi and mami.

So be the whispers of the neighbors who sneered at Anton. Calling Anton a child who does not know the return of the favor.

"Dogs only know to return the favor, to the person who takes care of them" said a neighbor. Anton heard the curse and confirmed it.

Until Anton fell down and bowed in front of the photo of their parents. Then it exploded, her crying. Until his back shook strongly. The sound of his voice pleading for mercy to his parents.

Just looking at Anton's back. Pity and anger at Anton, raging in his heart and mind. Making tears when it drops very hard.

Consolation from Edhi, the husband; unable to stop his crying. In fact, her crying grew louder and buried her face in her husband's chest. But just for a moment.

For a moment, Bila looked back angrily at Anton who was still bowed and fell in front of the photo papi and their mami.

"If the life of the Star is not saved. I'll make sure you and your wife are in jail for a long time !. All your life !. Until you rot !. Remember it's Anton !" bila said on his sobs.

Then when you leave. Half-run left Anton. While wailing bitterly.

Meanwhile, in the house of Tari's parents who had always been quiet, now suddenly crowded by the police and neighbors. Do not miss Mbak Ipeh present the crowd. Rela came only to know the next development.

But Aunt Hombing did not enliven the already crowded situation. Her story is still in shock and doesn't want to see Dance. There was only Om Hombing among the crowd to make sure that Dari was caught and did not show up again at their home.

All those people and the cops, they're still out the fence with Tari's parents. Because the gate is locked. The police repeatedly called out the names of my mother and father to open the door. But there is no answer yet.

The tightening of the voices of the police who called, also the sound of sirens from the police car that caused the neighbors to be curious. Then they ran out of each other's homes. Now crowded in front of the front fence of the house of the parents of the Dance.

Almost after midnight, then the mother appeared from the outside of the house. Looks like I just came home from nowhere.

When she saw the crowd in front of her house, she looked a little shocked and more upset. Seeing the crowd swarming around the gate. He blocked his way into the house and was forced to stop his motorbike in front of the gate of his house.

"What is this !?... Ha !. What's up !" asked the mother in a loud and sassy voice, from the top of her motorbike; to Commander Kabila DF. Without the slightest fear.

"Uuuuuu.." the crowd cheered, in unison; shouted at mother.

"I'm sorry...Mom lives in this house ?" ask Commander Kabila DF.

Because Commander Kabila DF did not answer his question. But even back to asking. It made my mother angry and almost rebuked the commander.

"Yes !...Why is it !" challenge mom with sharp eyes.

"We're from the police. Carrying a warrant to search mom's house. So please cooperate. Please open this door right now"

"Just son !. If the cave doesn't want..lo want what !"

"Uuuuuuuu.." the crowd cheered again. Hearing the mother's rejection very loud.

"He!.heard ya !... I open *******. Don't ask for permission to enter !"

"Then, our stone mother. There's a mother's son named Tari, right ?"

"He's a bad boy !. I don't think of him as a child !" answer mom cuek.

Then open the gate of his house is not wide. Enough of her body could enter.

Then she came in and would shut the gate back. But Commander Kabila held the door with one hand.

"We're looking for a dance at this mother's house. Maybe he's hiding here"

"He !...You're a bitch, yeah !. I told you, I don't think of him as my son !. Find her at her husband's house !. Don't come in my house !...I chopped him up, if he dared to come to my house !. Go you guys !"

"We have to go in !. We already have this mother's home search warrant"

Commander Kabila DF forced his way in and gestured for his men to enter immediately.

"Turn the cat your warrant !. Go you guys !"

"Owuuuu...."

"Shut up !" snapped mother to those crowds who always cheered her.

"What are you looking for him for !"

"He stabbed Bintang, her husband's sister"

"Ooo.dead the Star" asked the mother with a cynical smile, expanding wide.

Irrespective of the explanation of Commander Kabila DF it makes mother so curious to follow the continuation. Mom immediately turned friendly to the police by letting the police in and ransacking her house.

"Please get ransacked, mother. Please.please.." said the mother invited Commander Kabila DF to enter.

Even the crowd was invited by mother to enter.

"Please enter everything. If any of my belongings are missing, it's the responsibility of the police. Come on in.please..."

But police banned the crowd from entering. Several policemen were ordered to stand guard at the entrance of the mother's house.

"Find him until he gets. Capture it...Imprison him for life. He is a useless child. He's a fucking carrier !. Brazen child!.." cried mother to the police who spread in her house to look for Dance.

Mother gave support and eagerness to look to the police. Open the doors of every room in the house. Includes a special room Mbah Kahpok.

"Shelf !" mother opened the door of Mbah Kahpok's room violently. Until it makes a noise. Because the edge of the door hit the wall of the room.

It looks like Mbak Kahpok is not surprised, not budging. Stay focused on meditating.

"Remember him.. and throw him away!." said the mother. When several police officers forcibly brought Mbah Kahpok out of his room.

Mbah Kahpok is still unmoved. Still in a mediated position and eyes closed tightly.

Several more police officers were still searching Mbah Kahpok's room. But there was no finding of Dance.

"Who is he" Commander Kabila DF asked his mother.

"The poor beggar !..What as a shaman !. Just torture him !. Surely he will tell the whereabouts of the ungodly boy. The two of them often do bawdy at this house. Just take him and torture him !"continued the mother at length with a happy voice.

"This house is bad weather" said one of the police, whispering to a friend who was next to him.

"Yes.cry. Make my fur goosebumps" replied the friend in a whisper too.

"Percis as the citizen said earlier. They hold talismans. Maintain the jin"

"It could be that the star is falling"

The two policemen were still whispering not far from the front of Mbah Kahpok who was sitting cross-legged on a sofa, in the family room.

Mbah Kahpok opened his eyes. Stare at the two policemen. The two policemen were nervous. Looking at Mbah Kahpok's sharp eyes like that.

Their bodies suddenly go limp. Like it's gonna fall down on the floor. Fortunately, another policeman came and stood in front of them. Blocking Mbah Kahpok's gaze at them. Then it recovers again.

But fear attacked them suddenly. It was as if a sinister creature was about to enter their bodies, one by one. Makes them very nervous. Trying to fight the creature by reading prayers. In accordance with their respective religions.

The newly arrived policeman brought along Anton and Mbak Ipeh with Anton's arm. As soon as Mbak Ipeh meets Mbah Kahpok...
