After tidying up her prayer kit, Raina rushed to the kitchen to make breakfast and provisions for her husband and made MPASI for Al.
Raina deliberately made MPASI for Al to be healthier. From the beginning Al began to learn to eat, Raina had made her own MPASI for her children and never introduced Al to the instant porridge babies are sold in the market.
While Raina was struggling in the kitchen, Satria helped clean the house to reduce the burden of Raina's work. After everything was clean, Satria went to the bathroom to clean her body because she had to go to work that morning.
"Ehm .. the aroma is tantalizing. It seems good, nih." said Satria who was neatly dressed in her work uniform and sat in front of a dish that had been neatly arranged at the table to eat.
Raina who heard the praise from Satria just smiled and approached the man to serve his breakfast.
"You're not having breakfast, Dek?" ask Satria.
"Mas, go first. Raina finish this first." replied Raina while showing the food packed in the lunch box.
"That's for what, Deck?" ask Satria again.
"Yes, to bring it. It's stock for, Mas." replied Raina.
"Thank you, yes." said Satria while smiling.
Raina smiled and nodded her head.
After finishing his breakfast, Satria rushed to prepare himself for work.
"Dec, Mas go to work first, yeah. You're fine at home with Al. If there's anything, contact Mas directly." said Satria
"Yes, Mas." Raina replied while handing over the bag that Satria usually carries if working and did not forget Raina also kissed Satria's hands full of reverence.
"Mas left first, assalamualaikum" said Satria.
"Walaikumsalam ..." Reply Raina.
Satria's motorcycle has disappeared from Raina's view, Raina goes back inside the house to see Al.
"Well, my mother's son is awake" said Raina, who saw Al opening her eyes, stomping her feet on the bed and also gave her hand to ask to be lifted.
Raina understood her son's intentions and lifted Al's body into his carry.
"Come, we boil water first for a bath adek" said Raina while kissing Al's cheek and taking him to the kitchen.
Raina painstakingly takes care of her son, a day full of tireless herself actually doing her duty as a wife and also a mother. With sincerity and pleasure he did. Although occasionally, he had to return to face situations that made his emotions peak, but he quickly tried to control himself.
And do not forget also he took the drugs that have been given by his psychiatrist to calm himself.
********
Day after day passed, just like the days before Raina just doing her routine at home as usual. Until the feeling of boredom and bored sometimes often ambush his mind.
Today, exactly a month had they occupied the rented house. That afternoon, Raina and Al play in the house while waiting for Satria's return.
Half an hour later, there was a roar of motorcycles driven by Satria approaching the house. From a distance Al had recognized if it was Satria, Al was holding on to the tralis who fenced the porch of his house and peeked Satria from behind the crevices of the tralis while jumping around baby-style.
How happy Al when he saw Satria who had approached and parked his motorcycle. Al yelling and babbling is unclear.
"Assalamualaikum, father's handsome son ..." said Satria who opened the porch fence of his house.
"Walaikumsalam, father ..." Raina replied with a smile and kissed the back of Satria's hand.
Satria immediately took Al and carried the boy.
"Dad's son is already fragrant, has a bath, huh?" satria said while kissing Al's cheek.
"Yes dong, it is the father who still stinks" said Raina chimed in Satria's speech.
They went into the house, and Satria sent Al down from his trunk.
"Al get down first, yeah. I want to shower first, play later." said Satria put Al in the living room.
Satria went to the bathroom to clean her body that felt sticky because of the sweat that had dried up. Raina, meanwhile, makes warm drinks for Satria and also warms the food, because usually Satria will eat first without waiting for dinner.
Right, after finishing bathing and wearing house clothes, Satria immediately sat in the dining room and took the food that had been provided by Raina because of the hunger that had been afflicted by her stomach.
"Al, dad's payday today. Later I will buy whatever Al wants." said Satria, who was Satria's payday.
"Is that really dad?" raina asked by lowering the voice of the little boy.
"Yes, dong. Kan, I'm looking for money for Al. So, whatever Al wants you to do. Well, if this mother alone." replied Satria while taking out a piece of blue money and handed it to Raina.
Somehow Raina felt offended by the words spoken by Satria. Raina was still in her place without taking the money given by Satria.
"Kok, bengong. Here's the salary for you. Don't want to, huh? Yeah, it's in again, in the wallet. Don't ask for money tomorrow, okay?" canda Satria's.
However, the joke turned out to make Raina feel offended. Raina only smiled bitterly as Satria said that.
"Hahaha, yes. You are, his master. I'm here just hitchhiking and being babu for you. Still mending to be a real maid out there can pay more than you love" Raina said with a forced laugh.
"Eh, what the hell, Dek? How, what's that talking about?" reply Satria.
Raina immediately took Al and hugged her son.
"Wait for work too, son. Al later same grandma if mother work. Let the mother can also give whatever is best for Al." said Raina.
Indeed, during this time, Raina never knew how much the salary of Satria. Even Satria does not give full confidence to Raina to manage her salary like a wife in general. Satria just rationed the daily shopping money for Raina. And Raina will complain to him if something is exhausted and needed. In fact, Satria never asked Raina anything she wanted. Satria seemed to only attach importance to Al, it made Raina think more if only Al who is indeed Satria fight.
"Dek, what's wrong with you, anyway?" satria asked who was beginning to be confused by Raina's attitude.
"You should have realized it yourself, Mom. What has made me this way. I take care of the house every day and take care of your needs willingly, but you don't seem to understand what I'm feeling. What the hell does that mean to you? What do you think of me as, anyway?" Raina just keeps babbling.
Satria just silently heard the ravings of Raina and did not answer the question from Raina that was thrown for her.
"Why are you silent? You can't answer. Hem, I'm pretty self-conscious about who I am. I'm just you as a nanny for Al and just a maid for you. If Al's getting close to you, you'll take Al, won't you, from me?" Raina continues to pursue Satria with her opinions.
"No, Deck. I never thought of you that way. You are my wife and her mother Al." replied Satria.
"Hef, wife? If you really think of me as your wife, do your duty as a real husband, not just a status. Give me my full rights as a wife. Fulfill the living that you have to fulfill for me, which you call a wife." ketus Raina with an increasingly high tone.
Satria went silent digesting all of Raina's words.
"Almost a year already, Mom. I wait patiently for your certainty. I'm just demanding my rights as a wife, I'm not demanding you more than that. I hope you understand what I mean." Raina said with a trembling tone holding back tears and hugged Al tightly.
"Sorry Mas, Dek." Satria replied softly.
"Sorry for what else, Mom? Sorry, if you still can't fulfill my request. Until when, Mom? Until when should I wait for this uncertain certainty. Instead of you hurting me more and damaging me mentally, we better separate, Mas." Raina said with tears beginning to flow.
"If your reasons, pity Al who will lack parental affection. What about my heart getting hurt? We better split up, Mom. We can take care of Al even if we don't live in the house." Raina said with a sobbing.
Don't know where all those words came from, they just came out. Raina felt that she could not stand what was weighing on her heart and mind. Which made him dare to say what he had been silent about.
Satria was still speechless, Raina's words actually slapped her. Satria was unable to speak, her heart was also slashed when she saw Raina and Al who also cried in Raina's arms.
Satria did not expect, if his jokes would make Raina offended and make the woman angry with him.
Feeling that she did not get an answer, Raina stood up from her seat still holding Al. Raina enters the room, leaving Satria still in the guest room.
Raina stuffed some of her clothes and also Al's clothes into a sizable bag of baby gear. Raina thought about leaving Satria at that time by bringing her son. Not to forget Raina brought the money she had saved from the results of setting aside her spending money.
His heart truly felt his heart ache, his wait and patience all this time did not bear fruit. The decision was already unanimous to part with Satria, if the man still did not give a definite decision.
