The Three Chosen
349. Women in the Kingdom
The chatter of Tinah, Ulfa and Ratih continued until the time of the Maghreb.
“ Chat ngalor ga feel already want Maghrib aja..,” said Ratih.
“ Yes. You guys pray Maghrib here aja yes.” said Tinah offers.
“ Me again M, Ceu. Maybe Ratih tuh who want to pray here.” Ulfa said.
“ I pray at kost an aja Bu..,” says Ratih.
“ But you want Maghrib. Time to go back now..?” tinah asked when she saw that Ratih was preparing to go home.
“ Gapapa, deket kok from here..,” says Ratih.
“ But not good if Maghrib girls are still in the middle of the road, worried followed by ghosts..,” said Tinah origin even though only want to make Ratih undo his intentions.
Hearing Tinah's words made Ratih afraid and sat back down. He even agreed to Maghrib prayers at the house of Tinah. Ratih's attitude made Tinah and Ulfa laugh.
“ You do not know if I am traumatized if you are horrified said ghost..,” Inner Ratih while rubbing his face.
When the adhan reverberated Tinah invites Ratih berwudhu in the bathroom alternately. While waiting for Tinah to wudhu, Ratih saw a woman who was rich and batik in clothes passing in the kitchen. Thinking it was Tinah's domestic assistant, Ratih smiled as the woman turned her head towards him.
“ Smile the same as who is Ma'am.?” ask Tinah.
“ Sama...,” Ratih's speech was interrupted because Ulfa yelled at him to rush the Maghrib prayer because outside the sky looks cloudy.
Ratih rushed into the bathroom for ablution. After that he and Tinah prayed together in the room.
After performing the Maghrib prayer, Tinah again heard a knock on her door. Tinah rushed to leave Ratih who was still folding his face in the room. At that time Ratih again saw the woman who was a rich man passing in front of the room and seemed to be walking following Tinah.
“ Sorry Ceu, I dare not open the door..,” said Ulfa while standing from his seat.
“ Gapapa Ul, let me aja..,” sahut Tinah.
Ulfa frowned when she saw Tinah silent for a moment in front of the door. Instead of opening the door directly, Tinah muttered while sticking her palm to the door, causing Ulfa to be confused.
H.h., tok....
“ Assalamualaikum Tinah, this is Abang Tin..,” said Usep to make Tinah breathe a sigh of relief and then rushed to open
doorway.
“ Wa alaikumsalam, sorry Bang. I just finished praying in the room.” said Tinah while opening the door.
At that time Tinah was a little surprised when she saw Usep coming with two handsome and handsome men who were none other than
Iyaz and Izar.
“ This Mas Iyaz and Mas Izar. Their Project Manager Tin....,” said Usep introduced Tinah to two of his guests.
“ Oh yes, let's please enter Mas. Sorry small house...,” said Tinah.
“ Gapapa, thanks Mom...,” say Iyaz and Izar together with a smile.
“ You are here also Ul, it has been a long time.?” ask Usep friendly.
“ Pretty Kang. Abis humpang eat this same baso temen earlier..,” said Ulfa who also knew Usep.
“ Wow very good afternoon-afternoon baso meal. I am in ga..?” ask Usep.
“ Sorry Kang, took only three packs earlier..,” Ulfa said to everyone's laughter.
Shortly thereafter Ratih came out to make Usep, Iyaz and Izar surprised.
“ Lho there is Mas Izar same Mas Iyaz also here..,” greet Ratih with a smile.
“ Yes. So you're boarding in this area huh..?” ask Izar.
“ Yes Mas. Nah Bu Tinah is the one who takes care of the boarding house. I want to know his house, so if there is anything I can go directly here..,” said Ratih.
Izar's friendly attitude made Ratih misunderstand. He thought Izar liked him too and Ratih shamelessly showed interest in Izar. While Iyaz who was calling his wife was only able to observe the interaction of Izar and Ratih.
Suddenly it rained down hard. Ulfa sighed in annoyance because for him Ratih was too slow.
“ Tuh tuh ujan. Lo really long Rat...,” said Ulfa annoyed.
“ Sorry, I can't pray in a hurry Ul..,” said Ratih while smiling wryly.
“ If rich gini his business is I who bothered. Nganterin Lo, keep coming back home. Where's theujan again..,” says
Ulfa while clucking.
“ Don't be confused. Ntar Mbak Ulfa usherin same Bang Usep only, so you can go straight home Ul. Yes Bang..?” tinah asked while looking at her husband.
“ Yes, so can also...,” said Usep while nodding.
“ Let Ratih be with Us later Sir..,” said Iyaz suddenly.
“ Gapapa nih Mas, what ga ngerepotin.?” ask Usep.
“ Gapapa Pak...,” says Iyaz.
“ Well if Ratih already has something to do, I say goodbye first yes..,” said Ulfa.
All assented. Then Ratih and Tinah drove Ulfa to the terrace of the house.after they entered the house but did not see Usep, Iyaz and Izar in the living room. When looking inside it turned out that the three men were standing in the middle of the room while talking about something seriously. Tinah and Ratih joined in out of curiosity.
“ What's the matter Bang..?” ask Tinah.
“ Mmm, You don't be surprised ya Tin. Mas Izar said here there are subtle creatures that try to disturb the harmony of our household.
“ Yes Allah, Time is Bang. What fine creature Mas..?” tinah asked while looking at Izar.
“ Do not panic dong Tin..,” says Usep tried to calm his wife.
“ Is Not That Bang. I was also bullied by the same knock on the door today. Every time it opened, there was nobody.
Even then when I took a shower, there was a door. I know you, but when it opened there was nobody. I was looking around the house but there was no one else. That's why when you hit the door, I didn't open it right away. I prayed first so that those who knock on the door are actually humans not ghosts. Kan serem Bang if there are nights that hit the door but right look at it turns out ghost..,” said Tinah at length.
Tinah's story surprised Usep but Iyaz and Izar looked relaxed. Ratih who also heard the story of Tinah also felt the need to convey what he saw earlier.
“ Kalo said Bu Tinah in this house there was no one else besides Bu Tinah earlier, so who I saw dong.?” ask Ratih.
“ Ma'am Ratih writhing what was it..?” tanya Tinah was curious.
“ Waiting time Bu Tinah wudhu earlier I squirm girls wear green kebaya and batik cloth way to the kitchen. I'm the assistant of the household Bu Tinah, so it's fitting that he look yes I smile. I also saw him follow Bu Tinah just want to open the door earlier.” said Ratih.
Hearing Ratih's words made Tinah and Usep look at each other anxiously. Tinah also docked towards Usep because she realized that the knock on the door might be the ghost of the woman that Ratih saw earlier.
“ Gimana nih Mas. My Wife is also bullied..?” usep asked while staring at Iyaz and Izar alternately.
“ So tonight you guys don't stay here first huh. Insha Allah tomorrow We come back here to neutralize this house. And Mrs Tinah, may I borrow her ring..?” Izar asked as he stared at the ring that was coiling on Tinah's ring finger.
“ Love first yes Tin, ntar if it has been neutralized must be reversed. Brother's ring was also brought the same Mas Izar earlier.” Usep said when he saw the doubt in Tinah's eyes.
“ Yes Bang...,” sahut Tinah while handing the green stone-eyed cinci she wore.
“ So we go to the house of Doni yukTin. We hitchhiked last night there..,” take Usep.
“ Don't Bang. We go to the boarding house. There is one empty room that we can place for a while..,” said Tinah.
“ Ok, Brother agrees...” Usep said with a smile.
That night, Iyaz and Izar drove Usep, Tinah and Ratih to the boarding house. Usep and Tinah decided to sleep in one of the boarding rooms while waiting for Iyaz and Izar to finish meruqyah their house tomorrow.
