Film Pendek - TILIK (2018)

<i>To whom this ten thousand belong?</i>

<i>I feel sorry for our Mayoress (Bu Lurah).</i>

<i>She seemed sick for so long.</i>

<i>Is this all?</i>

<i>Yes.</i>

<i>I'll put it in the envelope, then.</i>

<i>Okay.</i>

<i>You are all the witness. </i>

<i>Yes.</i>

Is it true that Fikri and Dian are in a relationship?

I heard that he brought Mrs. Mayoress to the hospital with her.

- Really? - Yes!

- Are you sure? - Yes, I am.

Who said that?

Her!

Dian called me

saying that our Mayoress (Bu Lurah) passed out.

That's why they bring her to the hospital immidiately.

That's why I told you all about it

through our <i>WhatsApp</i> group.

<i>Oh that's why.</i>

<i>It'll be a long ride then.</i>

I wonder what Dian does for living.

I heard that

she does inappropriate job.

Poor our Mayoress

if she's going to have that kind of in law.

Someone said that

she often rents a room

and going to the mall with different guys.

What kind of job is that?

Really?

Maybe she is accompanying tourists, who knows?

Hmmm, no wonder.

Dian is such a really

friendly and bubbly girl.

That's what she does here, though.

Try take a look at this now.

- What is that? - Guys come here, look at this.

She poses like that?

<i>(disgusted)</i> May God forgive her.

<i>(Everybody's gossiping)</i>

You need to learn to use your phone not only to show off,

but to find some information, okay?

<i>My body is shivering just by looking at her picture.</i>

What is it?

Nothing.

Are you sure?

I'm sure it's fine.

Fine then.

<i>I'm sure she has plenty of side jobs, right?</i>

<i>It's impossible she just got one job.</i>

<i>But what's the other we don't know. </i>

<i>A girl...</i>

just got a job, suddenly got that much money.

Of course people asking around.

Bu (Mrs.) Tejo, can you please not say something unreasonable?

Unreasonable?

Everybody's talking about her on <i>Facebook</i> already.

Just look at those comments.

Of course everyone talks about her.

Just think about it.

I'm not saying anything about their family.

Her father left her when she was a child,

her mother just has a little plot of rice field.

That's why she didn't go to college.

She just started working, suddenly

her phone is new, so does her motorcycle.

Where does that money come from?

Those are very expensive.

I know branded things.

Bu (Mrs.) Tejo, Yu (Mrs.) Sam,

in my opinion,

if she had appropriate job,

it would be impossible to own those things. Right?

Of course.

That's right.

You guys, are you detectives now?

Your job seems to investigate other's live.

That's why

it's time for you to upgrade your reading skill through internet.

- Okay? - True that, Sister.

So you know what we are talking about.

<i>But not all of them are true.</i>

<i>We have to double check them first</i>

<i>don't take it so blatantly.</i>

<i>Remember when one of us being tricked</i>

<i>by herbal medicine ad from the internet.</i>

<i>It happened.</i>

Which one of us ever fall down the hole?

You did, didn't you?

Are you okay?

Who got a sick bag?

<i>(Everybody's panicking)</i>

Oh God, how could this happen.

<i>(Panicking)</i>

<i>(Wondering) What happen, Yu Nah?</i>

<i>You are going to see the world</i>

<i>but choose to throwing up instead.</i>

<i>Leave her alone, Bu Tri.</i>

<i>That's not how to behave when someone is throwing up so hard.</i>

Hey,

I just remember something,

I once caught Dian

throwing up at night.

Really?

Yes.

That night I was on my way home from Qur'an recitation.

Near Mbah Dar's house, in the dark junction,

There was someone throwing up

when I went closer, turns out

it was Dian.

<i>Instead of saying hello,</i>

<i>she just ran away.</i>

If it was not morning sickness,

why would she ran away from me?

<i>True that.</i>

I got her right there.

- Bu Tejo - What?

Are you sure pregnant is

the only reason for someone throw up?

Look at her

she was throwing up hard

and not pregnant.

Come on now, Yu Sam.

I've been pregnant too,

of course it's different.

Morning sickness and throwing up

are completely different cases.

It is very different.

Yes, that's right.

I've been pregnant too.

During my first pregnancy,

I want to throw up, but it felt like...

Like there's nothing to throw up?

- Yes that's right. - That's why I remember

when I saw Dian that night.

Come on guys,

why do you act like a doctor?

We can't even see any changes

with Dian's body.

There are so many ways to hide pregnancy.

Teenegers are more cunning nowadays.

Yes, that's right.

Really?

Yes.

Are you okay?

Wait a minute, could it be...

Could it be what? I want to take a pee.

Where are we?

We are still a far.

Still very far.

Here, here.

Tie your thumb with this rubber band.

It'd hold your pee.

What do you mean?

Hold onto me.

Did you do it?

Is it done?

I'll hold it.

Hold it longer.

Oh, God. Could we ask Gotrek to stop for awhile?

I can't hold it any longer.

Trek! Stop here!

Here, your rubber band didn't work at all.

Hold it little bit longer.

See? We are stopping now.

What is it?

Bu Tejo wants to take a pee.

Tell her to get out.

You could get out now.

Are you kidding me?

Do you want me to take a pee in the middle of rice field?

I don't want to get bitten by a snake!

But, you are not scared of your husband's snake, right?

<i>(Wooing)</i>

It's so much more comfortable here.

Who else want to take a pee?

I do!

I want to go too.

Hold on, one by one please.

Could you do it fast, Trek?

It's opened. Relax.

Come on, guys.

You open it so slow.

Wait.

Be careful, don't rush.

Is this all?

- Wait for me, Yu Sam. - Faster, Bu Tri.

Go.

Wait a minute.

What time is it? I haven't pray Dhuhr.

It's 2 p.m.

Don't you want to take a pee too, baby?

No, I am not feeling it.

How is it, Trek? All good?

All clear, I'll handle it. Don't worry.

Hello?

How is it, Yan?

Is that Dian?

It's... Hello?

I can't hear you.

We are at the... Where is it?

We are at a mosque. Some people are taking a pee.

Hello?

Yan?

I can't hear you.

- What happen with my phone - How is Dian?

Oh, my phone is dying.

<i>Oh God!</i>

Where is Yu Sam and Bu Tri?

They are praying Dhuhr.

They haven't done it at home prior time.

Trek,

I have something

my husband asked me to give it to you.

What is it? It's already taken care by the others.

It's okay, it's for you. Don't you want it?

How is it, Yu Ning?

Just take it.

Count it as a gift from Mr. Tejo.

- He is running for the district mayor. - He's not!

I see, so Mr. Tejo is going to be the district Mayor.

It's not about that.

Well, if the people want to,

you know,

elect him to be the district mayor,

let's say, you, or Yu Ning,

would want to be the campaign team,

it'd be disrespectful to say no.

See? That was a bribe.

Return the money before it harms you.

Here it is.

No, it's okay. Really.

My husband principle is talk less do more.

I am sure about this.

- This isn't bribe? - In the name of God, no.

It's not a bribe.

Anyway,

let's think a second about our Mayoress,

she is getting sick often.

Give her a break.

<i>What are you guys talking about?</i>

On top of that, she's living by herself.

Her only son couldn't be counted on.

Don't you agree?

It is the time for her to get some rest.

I feel sorry for her.

That's you wanting your husband to replace her, isn't it?

No, it's not. I just feel sorry about her.

Beside, it's the time,

our village to have a handy mayor.

But not the single one,

because they can't even get their lives together.

Okay, let's settle this,

how if we elect Dian to be the Mayor?

Ew, no way in hell!

All men would pick her for sure.

Don't you dare to think about that.

- Plese don't let her. - Knock on woods.

Our village would come to an end.

Yes, I agree with you, Bu Tejo.

Don't pick Dian.

Yes.

My husband is so flirty,

he always glancing at that filthy woman.

Do you want more?

Don't you dare, Trek.

But it's true, Ladies,

I once caught my husband

talking to Dian so intimately.

Oh My God, really?

I don't say a word to him for three days. I was furious.

I'm not worried my husband would get on Dian.

Why is that?

Because he can't even get it on.

Oh God, go see a doctor!

It can't be done.

Enough, guys.

What are we talking about now?

Let's continue our trip.

The other are waiting on the truck.

Okay. Let's go.

Why is it always about Dian?

She's just a single woman.

It was Gotrek's fault.

How it becomes my fault?

You are born wrong indeed.

Yu Nah, you could move to the front.

Is it okay, Trek?

No problem.

Okay, hurry up, guys.

<i>(Gotrek honking)</i>

Yu Sam, get down.

Yu Ning,

why didn't we take the bus

instead of this truck.

The bus we are usually take was occupied.

Besides, we can't take it so suddenly.

Thank God, Gotrek can take us with his truck.

If it were the case,

I could talk to my husband.

He has a friend who got a bus.

So we don't have to struggle like this.

It was an emergency.

If you don't want to go with this truck, it's no biggie.

The important thing is we get there

to the hospital

and make sure if our Mayoress is okay.

Poor her, nobody is taking care of her.

She has no one, no husband,

and unreliable son.

<i>(Gotrek honking)</i>

Now I get it.

What?

Why Bu Lurah passed out again.

Why?

It musts be about she knows

her son is dating Dian.

- Right? - I agree.

Bu Tejo, why are you always talking about Dian?

Aren't you bored with that?

It's her fault.

She should've get married in her age.

All of her friends already married.

What if she wants to focus on her career first?

We don't know what is her real deal.

Like she has one.

Enough, no need to slander about her.

I agree with Yu Ning.

Bu Tejo, slandering

kills a thousand times.

I am not slandering about anything,

I just want to take a precaution.

From what?

From the fact that Dian is

actually not a noble woman.

She loves to flirt with our husbands.

That could be happening.

Guys, Panjul once told me that

Panjul whose house in the south of floodgate?

Panjul told me that he caught Dian

hang out with someone at the mall.

At the mall?

With whom?

With a sugar daddy.

Seriously?!

That man's old enough to be her father,

but he was her date instead.

Bu Tri,

what is wrong with walking together at the mall?

She was clearly going on a date with a daddy.

Isn't it right, Bu Tejo?

It's no way that they were just walking together.

They must have done something after all.

Yu Sam,

do you think that Dian has a charm?

I think so.

It could be yes, it could be no.

She is pretty after all.

Many eyes are on her.

If it were just about a pretty face, it's nonsense.

All men are in love with her, it musts be because of her charm.

You took it too far, guys.

How could you think that Dian has a charm?

What happen with you, Yu Ning?

What is happening?

Why are we stopping?

What happen, Gotrek?

Trek!

Gotrek!

What is happening?

Are we ran out of gas?

What is it, Trek?

I don't know, I'll check it out.

Okay.

How is it?

It must be pushed, Sis.

Oh God...

1... 2... 3... Go!

Thank God!

What's your problem?

Why are you suddenly being so quite?

You didn't even bother to help us pushed the truck

and now you are being so quite.

I wonder that was a bribe that you gave Gotrek.

It is, isn't it?

<i>Astaghfirullah,</i> may God forgive you.

You were saying that Dian has a charm.

That was the reason the truck got stuck.

Yu Ning,

watch your mouth.

My husband is a good man

he is working properly.

I am the wife, I am the one who knows all about him.

I'm upset when someone talk lies about my husband.

Just because now he is a successful contractor,

befriended with a lot of politicians,

people talk lies and gossip about it.

Like what you do right now.

So, you are upset if someone talks about your husband.

Why did you do that to Dian then?

All of that, no proof whatsoever.

Yu Sam, let me ask you this,

when I ask around about Dian,

was Yu Ning always make a big deal about it?

Yes, she was.

So when I give info about Dian,

was it wrong?

You are not wrong at all.

In my opinion,

any info about Dian are useful.

Now,

if her life is miserable,

that's her problem.

But doesn't she dare to ruin our households.

That's right.

It's okay if the info is valid,

what if it's not?

Yu Ning,

what's your problem? Internet is created by smart people.

It's impossible to be wrong.

You are a fool. Is that right, Sis?

Of course.

Dumb people would not capable to do such thing.

I don't mean to judge her or anything,

and I know you are still related to her, right?

That's why you are on her side all the time.

I just want to tell them to take precautions

that Dian is a threat. Right, ladies?

You are right, Bu Tejo.

Dian is disturbing our people,

she could be a home wrecker.

That's so dangerous.

Your info is not clear where it came from.

All of them are from <i>Facebook</i> comment section and internet.

Why are you still at denial?

Any info from internet are legit.

There are photos, there are pictures.

I'll repeat it once more,

I just want to take precaution.

But not like this,

if info about Dian

are not true like what you talked about,

wouldn't it be a slander as well?

Slander is a heavy sin.

Of course it's not, I'm not the only one who talks about it.

Wake up!

I don't get along well with people who loves to show off and defame other people.

What did you say? Show off?!

<i>(Gotrek honking)</i>

How could you say that I love to show off?

Watch your mouth.

That's the reality.

No, you can't do that!

You are the one who say that Dian is not a noble woman.

How could you say that? I'm not the only one testify about it!

That's a slander, you are making up stories that are not true.

That's bullshit!

See? If so that's a slander as well!

No, other people talk about it too.

You are defaming me!

No, you are! You are so hardheaded. You don't want to listen!

<i>(Continue arguing)</i>

What is it? Why are we stopping again?

What happen, Trek?

Gotrek!

Here's the thing,

you should have known the rule.

You can't carry people on a truck.

That's violating Government Regulation

number 55 year 2012 article 5 section 4.

So, I'm sorry. I have to give you a ticket.

Excuse me officer!

We are going to visit our Mayoress.

That's true, officer! We are running late. It's getting dark.

It's an emergency, officer. Please, let us go!

Use your heart. Give us some empathy.

Hold on, hold on.

Do you want me to call my police officer relation?

He has five badges, do you dare to meet him?!

Ladies, you understand the law, right?

We are going to visit our Mayoress! Case closed.

If you don't let us go, I'll bite you off.

That's it, let's go down and get him.

What do you want from us, Sir?!

Do you want me to bite you off? Use your heart.

See you later, officer!

<i>Arrived, at last.</i>

<i>Hold on, wait for Gotrek first.</i>

<i>Come on, Trek. Speed up.</i>

<i>Let's go guys.</i>

<i>There is Dian.</i>

How's Bu Lurah condition, Yan?

Actually, you don't need to come here.

What do you mean? We are already here, Yan.

So how is her condition?

Bu Lurah is still in the ICU,

she's not allowed to get visitors.

Why didn't you tell me before?

I couldn't reach you at all.

My phone is dead.

Excuse me.

You all are here already. Thank you.

How is it, Fikri? What's happening?

I apologize, Mam. Actually my mom can't get visited yet.

Mom is still in the ICU.

But the doctor say that she is going to be good.

No need to keeping eye on her, just need to accompany her.

Okay then, it's okay.

Yes, I apologize, Mam.

Wait a minute, so Dian took Fikri

and his mom to the hospital, right?

You guys are not official yet but act like it already.

Why don't you get married now?

Why are you back at it again?

What are you talking about?

Fikri, stay beside your mom, don't go anywhere.

We hope everything goes better.

Wait a second.

What is it, Mam?

It's from us.

You don't need to.

It's fine, just accept it.

We hope for the best of your mom.

Don't forget to give us updates about it.

Of course, thank you so much.

Dian, don't let Fikri slip away.

Okay then. We are going back in.

Thank you so much for coming.

We apologize once more.

It's fine. Take care!

What now?

Enough.

The important thing is

we know that our Mayoress is fine.

Whether we can't visit her

it's not worth being a problem.

Let's go back home now.

It's enough, let's go home now.

Watch your step.

Be careful, let's go.

We are already here and can't even get in.

What can we do? It's settled.

How can it be like this, I wonder?

Come up, Yu Ning.

Is it wrong,

if I care about Bu Lurah?

Is it also wrong,

if I want to know how is she as soon as possible?

It's fine, Sis.

No one is at fault.

We know that you have good intention, right?

Trek, Gotrek,

we are already go this far,

what if we stop by the central market while we are here?

No problem, but how about the others?

What do you think, ladies?

Let's go there.

Okay then, Trek, let's stop by the central market.

That's how it's done, always offer a solution.

Let's roll.

So, is talking around about something that is not certain yet is an act of slander?

<i>(In unison)</i> How about that?

What do you want to buy, ladies?

Hon,

I think I can't handle it anymore.

Living under the radar like this.

When would it be the time Fikri accept

that his father is going to remarried?

Calm down, dear.

I need you to be patient.

Take a leap of faith in me.
