A Reply to My Husband

Everyday Eats

Rania was taking care of the laundry behind the house, but the voice of the in-laws from the kitchen was still heard to her ears. He was tired of hearing it, but he couldn't do anything. Every day that comes out of his mouth is just a curse for him, it is like a daily meal. None of the homework that Rania did was considered right. Everything was wrong in his eyes.

This is because until now Rania has not been pregnant even though she has been married for five years to Barra, the only child of her mother-in-law. After marriage Rania lived one house with her mother-in-law because her husband was dead and Barra was the only child she had.

"Have a long time of laundry, what are you doing?!" nagging her in-laws while walking closer to Rania.

Rania simply took a deep breath to hold back her frustration. This was common to him, his ears immune to the sound of his in-laws barely pausing as soon as he started nagging him.

"It's cleaning the kitchen!" Her hands in-laws lightly pointed towards the kitchen even though since waking up Rania has not stopped working for a while. Sweeping, mopping, washing, cooking and all the home affairs he does. Desiring to devote herself to her husband, Rania is willing to do all the housework without a maid even though her husband is more than able to afford the services of a housekeeper.

"Good Mom." Rania only took the orders of her in-laws, there was no point in refuting because it actually made her in-laws increasingly nagging her. Rania immediately finished her work and walked towards the kitchen. With a heavy heart he cleaned again the kitchen that he had previously cleaned. I don't know what her in-laws did to make the kitchen fall apart again.

After marrying Rania who already has a well-established job willing to quit her job because asked to stop by Barra so that she can focus on taking care of the house and soon get pregnant. Rania and Barra were co-workers before they got married. It's just that Barra's position was a little higher so Rania chose to give up and quit her job. Marrying an established man makes Rania think her life will be guaranteed and happy.

In reality, Rania's life is economically secure, but happy? It seems that it is still far away he feels. Her husband is the king of this house, but Rania is not considered to be his queen. She was only considered a maid in this house.

Her mother-in-law went back to the kitchen to find Rania.

"This is my shirt iron! I'll wear it to go arisan with my friends any minute." Not finished cleaning the kitchen, her mother-in-law has given the order again. He thrust his clothes in front of Rania.

"Yes... Mom, after I finish cleaning the kitchen," replied Rania.

"A really old kitchen machine?! Udah can not give offspring, do not wear anything catfish! How did Barra fall in love with you?! There are no other women!" Sadistic words just came out of his in-laws mouth.

Rania was silent even though her chest rumbled to feel the insults from her in-laws.

"Try Barra married another woman, I must have held a grandchild by now. Darling Barra chose a barren woman like you!"

Rania couldn't stand it. Every day her mother-in-law always call her a barren woman and blame her because until now she and Barra have not had children.

"Mother ... I'm not barren! I have been to the doctor many times and the results are fine. My uterus is healthy, the quality of my eggs is also good. Don't keep blaming me!"

"Do you want to say that barren Barra is?! Where possible?! Barra was a healthy kid! Her body was healthy and fit like that where it might be barren!!" Her tone of voice was already intolerable.

"That's not what I mean Miss ... "

"Don't find a reason to defend yourself! You barren woman don't know herself!"

"Quick iron my shirt! I don't want to come late to Arisan because you're willing to do it! Show me you're useful in this house!" Her mother-in-law passed from before Rania.

"Turn that shirt to my room when you're done ironing it! I'll take a shower!" said her in-laws while walking without looking at Rania.

Rania grabbed the clothes her in-laws brought and immediately did her in-laws despite being upset. Sometimes anger and sadness enveloped his heart to hear the insults and scolding of the in-laws that never had to end. Her only hope in this house is Barra, her husband. Right now she is eager to see her husband come home and calm her heart, defend him and give understanding to her mother if all this is not her fault. But it's only noon, her husband will only come home later in the afternoon, even if he's not overtime.

Rania remembers the sweet memories of how she used to fall in love with Barra. Every day they met at the office, not to mention if there was an out-of-town assignment that required them both to come along. Barra, who is higher than Rania, often gives Rania a lot of tasks just to work on it. Unbeknownst to Rania, Barra deliberately did to make Rania late and she could spend time alone with Rania in the office. Frequently spending time together making the seeds of love appear in Rania's heart.

"Propar Rania .. Patience ..." Many times Rania calmed herself down. "If it wasn't for me loving Barra, I would have left this house!" rania Gumam.

The task is done. Rania rushed to deliver the shirt to the room of the in-laws. Rania thought after this her mother-in-law would not bother her anymore. Then he knocked on his in-laws room door.

"Mother ... Her clothes are ready," exclaimed Rania from behind the door. Her mother-in-law opened the door immediately. She was only wearing a kimono towel to cover her body. Rania was about to leave after handing over the clothes.

"Rania .. "call the in-laws. Rania's feeling was already uneasy to hear her in-laws calling her name in a slightly soft voice. There must be something else he wants.

"What's wrong, ma'am?"

"Do you have cash? I'd like to ask for a little."

"Hasn't Barra already transferred Mom's monthly allowance to her own mother's account?"

"Yes, but yesterday I used the money to buy clothes. I need more money now."

"But Ma'am ... "

"Not much, five million. Get me! I know you've got it that way, "cut the in-laws without thinking.

Rania is about to walk away.

"One more thing ..." Rania stopped her steps. "Don't tell Barra I'm asking you for money!"

Rania is really fed up with her in-laws. But her love for her husband kept her from the torment of the in-laws. Rania passed from before her in-laws without saying a word. He was forced to take the money his parents-in-law asked for. Rania already knew that otherwise she did not obey him, her in-laws would string up a fake story in front of Barra as if she was a disobedient son-in-law for Barra to scold her.
