Mbak Ukha was thrashed out of the house following Lukman who had been waiting outside on his bike.


"Kha... Kha..."


Bibik Nur followed from behind Mbak Ukha out of the house, Mbak Ukha stopped his steps for a moment to then look towards Bibik Nur, Nur,


"Why Bik?"


Ask Mommy Ukha,


"Request prayer water for Tita,"


Bibik Nur said in a slightly whispered voice,


"Tita?"


Sister Ukha glanced at the door, then looked at Bibik Nur again,


"She likes to talk alone sometimes, like her mom,"


Bibik Nur, Nur,


"Oh, yes..."


Ma'am Ukha nodded in understanding,


Then Mbak Ukha continued walking closer to Lukman on his bike, which now looks ready.


"Be careful, hopefully Nyi Parijem will help."


Bibik said,


Ukha ma'am riding into the bollard of a motorbike,


"Go Bik first."


Says Mbak Ukha, the,


Bibik Nur nodded.


"Where the hell is Man?"


Ask Mbak Ukha also when the bike is preparing to go, then,


"Don't know, it was saying good to Mom, like going home to pick up clothes, it was delivered Mas Munir."


Said Lukman,


"Oh."


Ms. Ukha.


Bibik Nur accompanies the departure of Lukman and Mbak Ukha to the front fence,


Until the motorbike driven by Lukman away and then no longer seen in the corner crossroads near the mosque there.


A new mother from the stall looks through the front of the house, she greets Bibik Nur with a smile but the road is fast.


Bibik Nur sighed, lately it has been common, many residents are afraid just passing by the front of the house,


Lukman walked through the village streets through the mosque and houses of the people, the road to the public cemetery that will lead them to the road that will be many gardens where the house of Nyi Parijem is located.


Some residents who were passing in the street seemed to greet, some were just silent.


In fact, since the death of Yanto's wife, their family has seemed to be the subject of daily village discussions, and every time they pass by or in one place, many people act as if they feel uncomfortable.


"May Nyi Parijem be at home."


Until then the house of Nyi Parijem was seen, Mbak Ukha still remained unsettled for fear Nyi Parijem was not at home.


Lukman took his motorbike into the courtyard of Nyi Parijem's house, the old fence seems to have been torn down, and now the yard is not fenced at all, although there is also a lot of bamboo in front of the house, but there is also a lot of bamboo in front, that possibility later to create a new fence.


Lukman stopped the bike, then looked Mbak Ukha down from the bonfire, he said,


"I'm coming in. Ma'am."


Lukman.


This time, he wanted to come along because there were so many questions he wanted to convey to Nyi Parijem,


Mbak Ukha seemed to nod, he then walked ahead of Lukman towards the door of Nyi Parijem's house,


Yet...


Krieeeit...


Not to mention that Madam Ukha arrived at the terrace of Nyi Parijem's house, the door of the house suddenly opened on its own,


Of course, Madam Ukha who saw him so stop his steps, he was stunned for a moment staring at the door that opened itself, he said,


Waiting for who really opened the door,


But...


Slender.


There's nobody there.


Mbak Ukha shuddered,


"What Ma'am?"


Lukman who had come down from the bike approached his brother, Mbak Ukha at a glance turned towards Lukman.


"The door opens itself."


Mbak Ukha lirih said,


Lukman was about to say something, when suddenly from behind they heard a voice,


"Oh, just come in, please come in."


Lukman and Mbak Ukha looked at each other for a moment, then looked back, looking back,


There, Nyi Parijem's grandson stood, carrying a small crackle,


"Ad.. somebody open the door, Ma'am, that's..."


Madam Ukha is a bit nervous, though,


Nyi Parijem's grandson seemed to walk past the two,


"It's okay, they already know you're coming, come in."


Said Nyi Parijem's grandson, making Mbak Ukha and Lukman look back, he said,


"They're who's Man?"


Ask Mbak Ukha in a whispering voice,


Lukman shook his head, though his heart seemed to guess, but did not dare to say.
