The marni?
Who tuh?
Lukman and Mbak Ukha are confused, both wailing.
(Bakul Lombok Mbak, whispered othor)
The smell of frankincense mixed with grave flowers now smells thick, Madam Ukha who felt her body getting goosebumps seemed his hand trying to reach Lukman's arm again.
Lukman and Mbak Ukha stared at Nyi Parijem who was limping closer, and then sat in front of them.
Nyi Parijem's grandson who helped Nyi Parijem sat on a mat, facing a basin filled with seven-figure flower water.
After Nyi Parijem sat down, the grandson placed the betel container, the shroud, the kapok, pandan leaves, and camphor.
Nyi Parijem opened his betel container, arranged it slowly, making Mbak Ukha and Lukman feel more heart sports because the atmosphere felt very uncomfortable.
Meanwhile, Nyi Parijem's grandson seemed to be burning incense in a corner of the room, carrying it out, but leaving a distinctive aroma in the room.
Till...
"It hasn't been forty days, but you've come back."
Nyi Parijem said,
Mbak Ukha and Lukman momentarily exchanged views, then Lukman who finally ventured to answer Nyi Parijem, then Lukman,
"Sorry Nyi, we knew we should come after forty days Mirna finished, but what happens almost every day makes us start to fear and worry, especially since the citizens are increasingly gossiping outside about the appearance of Mas Yanto's wife."
Lukman.
Nyi Parijem sighed, saying,
"It's all your sister's fault."
Nyi Parijem said,
Hearing Nyi Parijem say an affair, of course Mpa Ukha and Lukman looked surprised, he said,
"Sir... means how Nyi?"
Ask Mommy Ukha,
"He asked a shaman to prank your brother, this is what made Mirna's ghost come, they invited a ghost that should have been buried long ago."
Nyi Parijem said, and of course Mbak Ukha and Lukman looked increasingly confused,
"ghosts... Ma'am Mirna's ghost, or what is Nyi?"
Ask Lukman,
Nyi Parijem chewed his betel, then spit with a red spit into a container that his grandson always provided with a betel container, then spit with a betel,
"Yes Mirna, but the woman you've known all along is not Mirna, but Marni."
Nyi Parijem said later,
"She's sitting next to you, Ma'am."
Nyi Parijem again looked at Mbak Ukha who almost jumped while turning to his empty left, because Lukman sat to his right.
Nyi Parijem shook his head,
"Marni, she just doesn't want her kids to have evil stepmom, she never bothers the citizens. She just wants to go home, but her house is dominated by her husband's stupid mistress who instead calls the ghost of her twin."
"Aps... What is Nyi Parijem talking about? Marni, who is she?"
Madam Ukha really doesn't understand.
Nyi Parijem said slightly angrily,
Ukha looked at Lukman,
"Try me to call Man, tell him to come here, Yanto."
Says Mbak Ukha.
Lukman who was busy thinking about his brother-in-law was named Marni, and he had a twin who turned out to be an evil ghost who came because of the intervention of a shaman on someone's orders, finally not so heard the words of Mbak Ukha, Ukha,
"Man, Lukman."
Sister Ukha shook Lukman's arm, and only then did Lukman wake up,
"Why Mother?"
Ask Lukman,
"Yanto, call him, tell him to come here, get everything done, the child doesn't know it's lucky, how can he cheat!"
Ukha's madam is not playing, not playing,
Nyi Parijem was seen chewing betel again, while beside Mbak Ukha a female figure named Marni looked at her brother-in-law who had always looked cynical to her.
The figure's face looks sad, but at the same time haru, saw that his brother-in-law seemed to defend himself who had been wronged by his sister during life.
"Yanto, it's all because of him, tell him to come here."
Says Mbak Ukha, the,
"Mas Yanto since the supermarket didn't bring me Ma'am, he's still scared."
Said Lukman,
"Did I just pick it up?"
Ask Lukman anyway,
Mbak Ukha who is afraid of being left, of course, immediately shook his head to disagree,
"Telfon Munir alone, what Grace."
Said Mbak Ukha ordered,
Lukman finally nodded according, he excused for a moment to come out because he had to call, but Nyi Parijem told Lukman to go behind the house only.
"Why Nyi?"
Ask Lukman wonder,
"Just obey, don't ask why, this is definitely so that your problems quickly settle."
Omel Nyi Parijem, made Lukman finally quickly nod his head and rush according to walking to the back of the house only.
Sister Ukha himself, after Lukman seemed to shift his seat more to the right, because he did not want to be too close to the ghost of his sister-in-law.
Ah who said Nyi Parijem?
The marni?
Why is her name Mirna?
Mother Ukha's mind is confused.
