Miss Ella just finished frying a banana and making coffee for Mr. Hamdan. Ms. Ella brought the fried banana and coffee that was still steaming the smoke to the terrace of her house.
"Here, the coffee ordered by the father and his mother, the fried horn banana," said Bu Ella putting a plate of fried bananas and black coffee on the terrace table where Mr. Hamdan was sitting.
"Wahh. steady this, ma'am. Kok, cepet, yes, ma'am, banana cook," said Mr. Hamdan while taking a fried banana.
"The knife, right, is old, really, sir. So quickly matured, "sahut Bu Ella while sitting on the chair next to the table. The position of the table was flanked by chairs that were sat by Mr. Hamdan and Ms. Ella.
..."Nice, yes, ma'am, if you have your own garden. Not too much more to buy," said Mr. Hamdan while enjoying fried bananas....
"Yes, Sir. The garden that Aurora bought was a lot of plants. There are bananas, breadfruit, mango, rambutan, avocado, cassava, ketella, even plants for kitchen spices there. People who have been diligent in gardening, "sahut Bu Ella took a fried banana.
Mr. Hamdan and Ms. Ella's attention was diverted when they heard the ringing of mobile phones from inside the house.
"Someone called, ma'am," said Mr. Hamdan.
"Attent, Sir. Let's see who's calling" said Ms. Ella to get up from her seat and pick up her phone inside the house.
After seeing who called her, Miss Ella immediately received the incoming call.
"Hello, Ra!"sahut Bu Ella as he walked out to the terrace where Mr. Parman was.
"Mom, can't mom and dad get to town early? I want to spend time with my mom and dad. I want to take my mom and dad for a walk" Aurora said from a phone call.
"Can't, Ra. Father and mother were harvesting soybeans, "sahut Bu again sat on the chair on the terrace with Mr. Hamdan.
"Why don't you tell people, ma'am? Or just sell. I'll compensate you for the losses of mother and father" Aurora said.
Miss Ella sighed looking at Mr. Hamdan, "It's not a matter of money, Ra! People in this village on the harvest all. So it is difficult to find people to help the father and mother harvest. If the soybeans are not harvested as well, they will not be able to be harvested again. It's a pity that it was wasted, Ra, "that Miss Ella reasoned.
"When, I wish we could hang out for longer, ma'am," Sahut Aurora sounded sad.
"Sorry, yes, Ra!"miss Ella said she was not feeling well.
"alright. Its alright. I wait for mom and dad before my wedding reception day" Aurora said later.
"Yes. Mom and dad will come, "that's why Miss Ella and the phone call ended.
"Did Aurora ask us to get to town early, ma'am?"asked Mr. Hamdan after Ms. Ella put her phone on the table.
"Yes, sir," said Bu Ella a long sigh.
"Mother is actually lazy to go to town, Mom. But Aurora must be very disappointed if we don't come to her wedding reception. Aurora's husband is a rich man. At the Aurora wedding reception later, there will definitely be many rich people as well, Mom. I was afraid to meet that man's family. It seems, at that time what caught you was one of their family members, Mom," said Mr. Hamdan in a rough breath.
"Yes..how else, sir? Our time didn't come at our daughter's wedding reception?"ma'am Ella let out a long breath.
"Father feels guilty for making the lives of others disappear, Ma'am" said Mr. Hamdan with a sad face.
"Alright, Sir! Why do you still think about it. Forgetit! Even though you regret it a thousand times, you will not be able to change what has happened, sir," said Bu Ella who did not want Mr. Hamdan always haunted by guilt.
"Father can't forget that, Mom. A patient died because of his father" said Mr. Hamdan regretfully.
"It's not because of dad. I just do my job as a nurse. You don't know if something like that will happen" said Ms. Ella.
Ms. Ella was concerned about Mr. Hamdan. For years her husband lived a life of guilt, but could do nothing to correct his guilt.
"But still, what made the patient die was the father, Ma'am," said Hamdan in a rough breath.
"Father did not know, Mom at that time, it was Heru who was supposed to give the patient medicine. But suddenly he said he was having a stomachache and asked the father to replace him doing his job. You feel sorry for him, and then you help him. Father replaced doing his duty, but even things happened that you did not expect. In fact, only that day he worked at the hospital, "sahut Mr. Hamdan who remembered the events that made him afraid and finally chose to leave the city where he sought fortune. Mr. Hamdan chose to live in a rural area like today.
"Is it possible, Heru did it, sir? It is possible, Heru paid people to eliminate the person and deliberately asked the father to do the work he should have done so that he was not suspected of people. I'm suspicious of him, sir. You see when the mother drove Aurora to the city first, the mother stopped by a large dispensary to buy wind oil. But I was surprised when I saw Heru come to the pharmacy using a nice car. Especially when knowing that the owner of the pharmacy is Heru. Now you think first! His economic situation is no better than ours. Because he had to bear two parents, his wife and two children. But a few years later, he could have a big dispensary and a nice car. Although not a luxury car, but it's a good car, sir," said Ms. Ella at length.
"We can't accuse people without evidence. The slander is his name" said Mr. Hamdan.
"Mom's just suspicious, sir. Yes, a nurse whose economy is no better than ours can have a large dispensary and also a good car in a few years? It doesn't feel like much, sir," said Ms. Ella.
"We don't know anyone's fortune, ma'am. Don't be prejudiced by others,"
"Mother is not prejudiced against others, sir. Just, according to mom, Heru's drastic changes are absurd, sir! Out of reason. Not knowing that she's doing the pranks, I can believe she could get rich all of a sudden if she's doing the pranks,"
"Mother is just there. In modern times that technology is growing rapidly like this, mothers still believe the same. I thought that Heru became a piggy, kept his wife in the house waiting for the candle? After that, if the candle is unstable Heru's wife must immediately blow it. Didn't he? I watch too many old school movies" said Mr. Hamdan with a faint smile shaking his head slowly.
"Father don't assume that kind of thing doesn't exist! Although it's modern times and everything is sophisticated, things beyond that logic still exist, sir. Believe me not believe it, the mystical thing exists, sir. Not lost even though the times are advancing,"
"Yes, there might be such a thing, ma'am. But I never found anything like that in my life. Until now, never once have you met the name of the devil, tuyul, genderuwo, kuntilanak, pocong or the like,"
"Ihh. amit-amit, sir! Don't you meet! Enough I heard from people's stories and from television alone, "that Bu Ella so shuddered in horror. The middle-aged woman became goosebumps after observing the circumstances surrounding her house which was quite dark and quiet.The sound of owls and some sounds of night stars were heard, making the atmosphere grow spooky.
"Come, just come in, sir! Mother was so afraid, "that Bu Ella moved from her seat, then pulled Mr. Hamdan's hand to enter the house.
"Eh, first, Mom! Dad's coffee with his fried banana brought in first,"
"Yes. Come on, come on in, sir!"sahut Bu Ella let go of Mr. Hamdan's hand, then took a cup of coffee and a plate of fried bananas on the terrace table, then rushed in.
"Basic mom! He himself spoke of the mystical thing, he himself was also frightened," muttered Mr. Hamdan sighed longly while shaking his head slowly, coming into the house.

Why can't everyone write? Because writing and pouring ideas and making it a work is not easy. So if you do not like my work, do not give 4, 3, 2 stars, let alone 1. Really, it feels like my heart hurts so much but it doesn't bleed πππ€§π€§.
I took the time to write on the sidelines of the busy real life. I even stay up almost every night to write.
But this FREE READING I gave with all my heart was not appreciated and thrown so hard by giving a star that made my heart hurt but did not bleed and my mood so ambyaaarrrr....πππ€§π€§π€§
It is better not to give stars, than to give stars, but only 4, 3, 2 stars, let alone 1.
Pardon me! I conveyed the uneasiness in my heart that felt tight in this chest.
