Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapter 86. Everything So Not Same Again
Nearly an hour or so they were in that market. Bulek Ratih only asked to buy green vegetables when Asti called him. Because just yesterday Bulek Ratih shopping quite a lot, because escorted Yu Asni.
" You didn't say to Ratih if I wanted to come, did you ?"
"No, Bude. Just make a surprise ! Because Bulek Ratih is as excited as Ninuk!"
Since then the young man kept an eye on Asti who went to take the group of mothers out of the market with his red car. Now Asti is getting further and unattainable by him. Well, that guy is Kusno!
The young man who tried to get close to Asti a long time ago. But there are many obstacles that hinder them. From the attitude and way Asti dressed shows that the way she obeyed the teachings of Islam is more serious than other girls who are the same age. While he is a non-Muslim man, has been betrothed to a family with close relatives despite living in a very far-flung city.
Yesterday alone, she had a hard fight when she tried to reject the match. Especially if he left the trust of his extended family who had been hereditary to become a convert. Not all successfully he run, Asti has been betrothed to another man. Even her dream woman had even spread wedding invitations. Before he fought....
Until she heard about Asti's divorce with her husband. Kusno never expected that to happen. But seen not long ago, Asti again take care of a Muslim clothing store next to her sister's cousin's shop.
Now Asti seems to be closing itself off from the view of men. Moreover, he already has a young boy. The child who is responsible in his life.
The trip to the village takes less than fifteen minutes from the market. Maybe because he thought Asti was just stopping by the house as usual, Bulek Ratih was still struggling in his kitchen.
" Asalamu'alaikum!" shakah was followed by Akbar. In front of the door of the joglo-shaped house.
Bu Jum and Bude Diah laughed. Akbar is a true copycat. Asti held his son's hand to enter the house. The boy tried to call Bulek Ratih back.
Hearing the voices on his doorstep, Bulek Ratih came out. She was shocked to see her little guest. Not yet had time to hold Akbar, Bude Diah also appeared at the door.
" Mr Diah? Oh God! Long and healthy life always. I kept thinking last night..."
They hugged tightly. During the event 40 days ago, to commemorate the death of Mbah Sanjaya, Bulek Ratih was absent. Because he's not feeling well. Be Lek No and Joko who came to Mbah Sanjaya's house in Sendang Ranti Village.
The two men brought a lot of Asti's souvenirs. From sugar, cookies and one big basket of sweet oranges. Though Bude Diah actually wanted to see the faces of his relatives who were present. It looks like Asti is starting to keep her distance and away from her late grandmother's relatives.
They chatted in the living room with Akbar held by Bulek Ratih. As usual, Ms. Jum helped cook in the kitchen. Some of this food will be put in containers and taken to the rice fields.
Asti has made as many as four cups of warm sweet tea. Akbar really likes to drink the sweet tea from his mother's glass using a small spoon.
" Slowly, Deck. That wet shirt!"
Akbar looked at his mother's face rather sadly. How sensitive is this child. Asti smiles. Maybe thought his mother was scolding him. " It's wet! Akbar will change with Bu Jum, yes?" Soft words.
The two women continued to talk to many people. Especially after the two young women who were in the kitchen helped Batur Bulek finish cooking, they joined in.
" You didn't say that Bude Diah was staying at your house!"
tegur Bulek Ratih's.
"Bude Diah is late in the afternoon. Yeah, we've been talking a lot."
" Must be a lot of the latest gossip, yeah. So Bulek's the height again..."
" Train! You don't know Asti. Where would he want to hear news that is not qualified. I had a story about the beginning of the divorce of Mas Cahyadi and Ms Widya."
Bulek Ratih was silent. " We had heard ourselves from the talk of Mbah Sanjaya at that time. For Bude Ayu it was not a big deal either. There are parents who are divorced, their child's marriage life can last. But Satrio is different! He met a young, beautiful girl instantly forgot son and wife!"
Everyone was shocked to hear those magic terms coming out of his mouth. Bude Diah gaul also said.
"Yes, geez! Mom, know that term too!" Shouted Mbah Mah tickled. The woman has been married to Kang Kasat for two years and has not had any children!
The woman's talk was about Zahra. The young woman who destroyed Asti and Satrio's marriage. The news also reached her ear, Madam Sanjaya. The old man until looking for the names of both parents Zahra, his family background to the village where his parents lived.
The person who helped Mbah Sanjaya search for Information also managed to get a video of Satrio and Zahra's engagement event. Si Mbah until shocked and shortness of breath relapsed. His granddaughter is still tied to marriage with Asti even engaged to another woman. The news shocked relatives and families of Mbah Sanjaya who lived in Sendang Ranti, as well as to several other areas.
" So Mbah Sanjaya knows everything?"
" Already, instead ask for the transfer of his Father Santo to Wates Yogyakarta. It turned out that their family had also not lived there for long, only five years. Formerly Grandma Zahra was known as a shaman or psychic in her village in the Gunung Kidul area."
"Zahra was given a captivating study from his grandmother. So many men are interested in him. Just the message of the Mbahnya, Zahra must choose a man who has a job established, rich and honorable to be his life companion. Well, that Satrio fell into Zahra's trap because of that study!"
All the women who heard Bude Diah's story were confused. If the matter of pellets, mounting stacking, or winnows and charmers study they quite understand. Black magic is widely used by women to conquer the man they are looking for.
Bude Diah is silent. " Mbah Sanjaya to ask the same Mr. Kyai Sentot who he strongly believes because it is very high in religious knowledge. Zahra's grandmother wears the treat on her grandson's body, with the aim of the man who hooked her first time, always tied up to the wedding ropes! Maybe Satrio did it with Zahra, look at Satrio until he forgot his son and his wife..."
" When there was such a study? I just heard 'em, you know!" Said Asni
" Yes, there is! Mr. Kyai only suggested to Mbah Sanjaya that Satrio's wife give up. Because that study has devastating consequences for people who get in the way!"
Asti sat down to look. Deserving Satrio's attitude and way of thinking turned 180 degrees since he came into contact with Zahra.. Maybe Satrio did just that with Zahra. Because at that time Asti spent 40 days after giving birth!
" What's the name of the study is a roll, yes. Bude ? " ask Mar again. Because the woman was experienced enough to migrate to various cities in Central Java to work.
"Lack of understanding, I. Ma'am! You just saw it, right? How much we dislike the presence of Mba Widya, Satrio and Zahra at Mbah Sanjaya's funeral!"
" It used to be a friend who also worked, near my employer's house also used the study to snatch her employer's husband. His employer divorced his wife. So my friend was married by her former male employer . The child my friend was born with physical disability, there was a miscarriage. In fact, there are teenagers, physicalv normal but experiencing mental disorders!" Said Mar again.
" Oh..." Jerit Bu Jum and Bulek Ratih together. " Kok so serem so the reply!" continued Bu Jum.
" All the black magic asked for the fall of Bu Jum! Especially if there are unfulfilled conditions may have to be paid with the life that holds the study..."
Asti nodded in agreement. " But the story is true, isn't it Mar?'
" Yes, Right. Ma'am!"
" Cause if the story is only in the film, someone will be afraid and definitely ask to sleep in the lower room again the same Sister Ning." Answer Asti casually.
Everyone laughed at Asti. But they looked at the face of Bu Jum who was flushed with embarrassment!
" Mum Jum is a coward? you know, said Ms. Ning often watch soap operas about doom or Suzanna's movie that is!" Ledek Mbak Asni again.
" Not to be fooled! Remember that all good and bad deeds are accountable to God. Especially using black magic. What a quick reply! Don't wait another year!"
Everyone fell silent as Bude Diah said those words. Asti smiled widely. How about where else. There are a lot of people talking about this.
Their area is indeed located in the interior and since the beginning was built full of various myths and historical stories from the relics of the ancestors,
There are even some tombs of kyai or ulama who used to broadcast Islam there, not properly ziarahi as a Muslim. It is even guarded and worshiped with a purpose that violates the rules of religion. Not to mention places that are considered sacred, become places where the ascetic asks for various pleasures of the world. From wealth, position, to fame and big names in several fields.
