A Reply to My Husband

Returnees

Hanna and Herra were standing in front of their house. Apparently Malik's men did not play games while driving them out of the house. They don't even give time. Herra had begged them to give a week to be able to pack his things but Malik's men did not want to negotiate.

Then Herra tried to contact Malik directly with him.

"Hello ..."

"What's Auntie doing?"

"Malikn ... Can you help Auntie? This there are people from the company coming to confiscate Aunt's house and car and also others. Please tell them to cancel. You're the owner of the company, they'll listen to you."

"Sorry Aunt, I can't. I told them to do it."

"What??? What do you mean Malik???"

"I told them to take everything the aunt has now. I also told them to put Uncle Affandi in jail."

"But why Malik? What's my husband's fault? Hasn't he done much for your company?!"

"Tante could ask Aaron's uncle what he had done. I definitely wouldn't have done this if Uncle Aaron hadn't gone too far!"

"But Malik .... " Herra couldn't continue because Malik had already hung up.

"Your father must have made such a big mistake that Malik was so angry with him. He was the one who sent these people" Herra told Hanna. Malik is unlikely to help her make Herra even more desperate.

"So now we're poor Mah?" Hanna sat down. Malik's threat that he had only considered as

the bluff has been proven.

"I don't want poor Mah, I can't live poor ... How is this Mah? How should we?" hanna's crying broke.

He saw the suitcases lined up in front and also his left right damping. It's just part of her clothes and stuff and her Mama. Not to mention their shoes and bags. All this time the two of them had only wasted money on such items. They shop as if their money would be endless. But within hours their fate changed drastically. And only then did they realize these items in front of him were useless.

It can't be delayed anymore. Today, this very second they had to leave the house they had occupied for so many years.

"How is this Hanna? Where are we going?" asked Herra in despair.

"We can stay at the hotel for a while Mah, come on ... " Hanna stood up and took her Mama away from the place.

"We? Are you going with your mom?"

"Let me explain to Mama."

They also carry their suitcases as they can. As they were about to stuff their suitcases into Hanna's car, one of Malik's men prevented her.

"Sorry Miss Hanna, you can't take this car. This car was purchased using Mr. Affandi's account. All items purchased using Mr. Affandi's account must be confiscated" said the person.

Hanna was in disbelief.

"What do you mean?! This is my car, you have no right to take it!!!" snapped Hanna.

"I'm sorry, that's the truth. We also have to take over Miss Hanna's car."

"Dam!!! You guys don't want to take someone's!!! Tell your superiors I won't give up my car!!" snarl Hanna again. He did not care what the man said and kept his suitcases in the trunk of his car.

"Sorry Miss Hanna, don't fight or do anything that will do you harm yourself. We can be rude if you keep throwing a tantrum!" One of them tried to block Hanna.

"Please get that suitcase out of Miss's car. This car must be returned to the company!"

"I don't want to!!! this car is my car!!! You have no right to take it!!!" Hanna screamed back to make the others see her.

Then another came near them. Without getting stale, the man immediately took the suitcases that were already in the trunk and threw them. Then he also forcibly snatched the car keys from Hanna's hands.

"Hey ... What the fuck?!!" Hanna pulled the hand of the person who had thrown her suitcase. He tried to get his car keys back.

"Come away from here or I'll throw you into the streets like I threw you those suitcases!!!" snatch that guy.

"Don't waste time being soft on them!" the man said to his friend who had been facing Hanna and Herra. Then he left them.

"Hanna, don't fight anymore! They can be rude to you!" persuade Hera.

"You do evil what else Mah?! See what I've been through today?!" Hanna pointed at her battered face that Barra had beaten earlier. "What else should I be afraid of?" Hanna was about to approach the person who had thrown her suitcases but Herra held her back.

"Hanna ...! enough already! We won't win against them!" Herra pulls Hanna's hand.

"Take off me Mah! Don't block me! I want to take back my rights!" Hanna tried to let go of Herra's hand.

"Hanna is enough!!!" snapped Herra finally. If he obeys Hanna then this business is not finished and Hanna who might be doomed.

"Let's get out of here!" Back Herra pulled Hanna's hand away from those people. "You want to scream no matter how it doesn't change things. They're still gonna take this house."

"How are we gonna get Mah's suitcase?" hanna asked who finally gave up. "Our stuff isn't a little."

"Bring what we could have. Others we take again if we have a place to live." Herra gathered some suitcases that had to be carried.

"What if Mom stays at your house for a while?" Hanna quiet.

"Until Mama gets a place to stay?" added Herra who saw Hanna hesitant to answer.

"I'm on the run from Barra, where might I take Mama to stay at my house?"

"Snow?"

"Look at my face Mah, look at what he's done to me. Can I still stay with him?"

"This is what he did?" ask Herra not to believe it. "Where could he possibly do this to you, dear?"

"Better we stay at the hotel, I'll call a taxi" Hanna said, turning her questions to Mama.

* * *

Hanna stood in her place. He tried so hard to get out of this house and was determined not to come back. But fate says something else. Hanna and Herra had to swallow the shame after she was rejected at the hotel because both the debit and credit cards they had could not be used. And all the money they have has been frozen. Inevitably she brought Mama and her son back to this house, Barra's house.

They were still standing across the street after getting off the taxi. Since then Hanna hesitated to return to this house but she had no choice.

"There's no other choice Hanna. While we lived here first. Mama's sure she won't be rude to you as long as there's Mama" Herra persuaded.

With a heavy heart, Hanna finally set her foot. Aided by Imah who was still holding Alicia, they dragged their luggage in.

"Tomorrow Mama will sell all the remaining Mama's jewelry and the money we can use to find a place to live" said Herra.
