"It seems that I should ask my teacher Rampe for help!!" Desis that person who turned out to be Sartika aka Seketi.
After all these years she was looking for traces of her husband and child but it was precisely what she saw today a woman who was in that house.
"Who is that woman??" Sartika's murmur began to be filled with jealousy.
"Are you now married again? You're the same Sartika kang!!" It seemed that figure was shrinking her tears.
"But where's my son Sukardi? If he were alive now, he would be about three years old!!" She muttered as her eyes could not be seen staring at the family home Saribud ex-husband.
"I need to find out who the woman who was holding the baby was!!" He continued muttering as his eyes could not be seen the house.
For a moment his tears flowed again on his flesh-like cheeks that were shredded because he had not found the baby for him to eat.
"I used to have a family and had dreams of living together raising our children until we got older, but my dream had to run aground because of the three evil men, now I have fallen deep into a circle of sin that may be unforgivable, but my love for kang Ibud is still too great for my son Sukardi!!" Hissing slowly.
"But if you can't blame me then don't blame me if your wife's wife and children will kill me!!" Fizz Seketi.
"But it seems like the baby in the lady's arms I was able to make my dinner!! Why would I bother looking elsewhere if it was available before my eyes." His his hiss again grinned.
"Well, it's 9 pm why hasn't Ibud come home yet? Rimbi was worried!!" Arimbi said while holding Sumi who had been home since last afternoon fussing continuously while Kardi who was 3 years old played with Sukir who was still a year and a half old.
Ki Saman was silent. At that time in their village only certain people who have a cell phone, suddenly the tuned phone in Arimbi's hand rang.
Ddrrtt....
"Assynnya!!"
"Yes kang Ibud? What time do I come home? It's 9 o'clock in the night?"
"Waalaikum Greetings, sorry deck!! Here the rain is heavy since this afternoon if kang Ibud forced then the bike kang Ibud bus can hit the water, die in the middle of the forest in this atmosphere even make things worse!!"
"If the rain hasn't stopped yet, maybe tomorrow morning I'll go home!!"
"Oh yes already.the important thing is to know so do not worry anymore!!"
"Try where you want to talk to me for a minute!!"
Arimbi immediately gave the phone in his hand to ki Saman.
Ki Saman welcomed his phone because Sumi was fussy so Arimbi immediately invited his son to play in the room.
"Dad, Ibud's feelings aren't calm are you guys in there okay?"
Ki Saman was silent for a moment to hear the words of his son, he wanted to say something but he did not want to make Saribud think there, let alone the distance of the city to their village took approximately three hours.
"Well then, dad and Arimbi at home are fine first huh...God willing, I'm home tomorrow!! Assalamualaikum..."
"Greetings Waalaikum!!"
But somehow Saribud's feelings grew more uncertain, she knew there was something her father had hidden from her.
"It's raining stop..I want to go home!!" Ratap Saribud slowly.
His friends who live not far from their job location have many who come home to their homes!! Only a few of those who lived far away including Saribud could not go home because the rain poured so heavy since this afternoon.
As he heard his request, the rain gradually began to subside and at half-time the rain stopped.
Saribud prepared to bring his backpack and some groceries for people at home.
"Do you want to go home at this hour? Don't you wait until tomorrow morning?" Said a friend of the same village Ibud.
"Yes, I can't wait to go home, how are you? Ask Ibud.
"I'm tomorrow morning, what am I chasing after, I don't have a wife!!" Said his friend with a smile.
After heating the engine, Saribud began to drive home. Throughout the journey his heart pounded uncharacteristically.
"What is this feeling??" Bisik Saribud's.
Meanwhile, in the village where Arimbi's residence since dusk, the wind blew strong. There was no dark sky there.
A dog's salute in the distance seemed to see something that could not be seen by ordinary human eyes.
"The kids are sleeping Rimbi?" Said ki Saman who was sitting in the middle room.
"It's been, it's just been!!" Answer Arimbi.
"Did you feel like tonight was a little weird?" Ask Arimbi.
"Feel what? I just felt that it was cold tonight because the wind was blowing so hard while the night sky was blacker and stiffer." Answer aki Saman.
