After Party

After Party
Pondok Indah Mertua



On a clear morning, the sunlight had burst into a room.


Geck... Geck... Geck...


"June... Junnaa's... Juno!" The voice called out loudly while knocking on the door of the room.


Tok...


"June... Juno!"


Juna blinked his eyes. The first thing he remembered was the incredible tiredness. Then after seeing the interior of his room, he realized that he had agreed to enter another world that was foreign to him. The world lives with in-laws.


At first Juna still objected, if he had to live with his in-laws. However, he re-thought with a cold head, putting aside his ego and thinking of the best option for them at the moment. For the safety and health of the wife and child in the womb of Luna.


Juna has agreed with Luna to stay temporarily at Luna's mother and father's house until Luna gives birth.


And last night, they had brought some important items from their home. It turns out that the item that is called important there are many and various forms. So they really like moving house. In fact, the space provided by her in-laws is just a bedroom measuring 4 x 5 square meters.


The room was once occupied by Luna. Throughout their courtship, Juna was actually quite familiar with the room. However, in order to properly occupy him, he still felt awkward.


He still felt uncomfortable about something he could not explain. This room is comfortable. It was still the same as when Luna had occupied it.


Photos of the two of them, rows of books, reading couches, posters of Justin Bieber in various poses. Luna can still display her idol posters, in return, Juna can smoke in the room with the window open.


Everything is still in its place. However, for some reason, Juna still felt alien in that place.


"JUNE...!" The voice called back his name.


Suddenly Juna gasped to his senses from his beautiful dream.


From now on, the call was like just a faint-faced echo in his ear. That's her mother-in-law's voice. Juna asked what Luna's mother wanted that morning.


Juna got up from the bed, and lazily, he approached the door of the room and turned the handle.


"Yes, Mom?" Juna opened the door a little. His face looks wrinkled and his hair is disheveled. He did not intend to let Mom see more chaos in her room so as not to get excited.


"Have eight o'clock? You're not having breakfast?" Ask Juna's mother-in-law. Mom's face is neat with thin make up. His clothes were like people going out on the street. Even though Mom is only at home. The woman is devoted to the born and inner family. However, Juna currently did not need any attention from Mother.


Juna growled in his heart. He deliberately asked permission to enter his office during the day, because he was still a bit exhausted after the transfer process last night.


Of course, he asked for such permission in order to continue his sleep until ten. But now, it's still eight in the morning. Her parents screamed to wake her up.


It felt like Juna wanted to yell in annoyance right then and there.


His mind asked him why his mother-in-law could not let him sleep. He is no longer a child at this time.


He will eat when he needs to eat, he will wake up, if he has to get up. And will go to the office, if it's time.


He blamed Luna a little, for not telling his mother about this. But, perhaps, his wife forgot.


Earlier this morning I sayup Juna heard that Luna had to rush to leave this morning. Because there is another meeting with the management of his office.


Mother still looked at him in full search.


"I've asked permission from the office, to come in around one o'clock, ma'am." Imbuh Juna explained to his mother-in-law.


Mother of mangosteen with gamang. His eyes looked as if he could not believe Juna said at that moment.


"But it's still important for you to get up early." Say Mother firmly.


"Let's you run away if you don't wake up in the morning!" Imbuh Mother while walking away from Juna and Luna's room.


Juna sighed deeply, while closing the door to his room.


"God...The drama! Morning is drama! And, it's just his first day, stay here!" Juna grouse in the heart.


Juna silently prayed to God to be launched his life while in Pondok Indah Mertua. At least, for the next nine months. When Luna gave birth to their baby.


Juna breathed a heavy breath. He held his breath while talking to his mother-in-law. Sweat pouring. His mouth felt so dry that his throat. And he felt very sick this time.


With a shunt step he tried to find a towel in a pile of clothes, in a suitcase that had not been disassembled.


It is currently highly unlikely that he will resume his sleep again. Sleeping again, means which one is her mother-in-law. And, Juna still did not dare to make the wrong move on her first day of staying at her in-laws' house.


It is like a new officer entering work. He wants to look in accordance with the will of his superiors. Trying every way to get through probation.


Juna has found the towel. Then he rushed into the bathroom to take a shower. And as soon as possible go to his office. A long way from this house. Stay away from her in-laws.


Juna prepares to leave for the office, then puts on his work boots and defies his briefcase.


He opened an online motorcycle taxi app on his phone and ordered to take him to work.


"Wow... Jun, you look so pathetic!" Rey said when she met Juna in the office elevator.


Juna's face looked extremely chaotic and gloomy. In his eyes were wrinkles and dark circles. Her hair looks random. His work shirt was tangled because it was piled up in a mess in the suitcase.


Juna told me a little about his first day at the house of in-laws. Rey laughs amusedly at Juna's curse.


Juna also told about the bad taste that occurred when he met his in-laws this morning.


"Wow, you seem to have pentheraphobia, or phobia of in-laws!" Rey is sure.


"Huh? Is there really? Phobia in-law?" Juna looked up, and asked Rey back.


"Yes, not specifically for in-laws, anyway. This is a phobia of things that are actually harmless. It's just our thoughts, which make us alert and afraid of this." Rey chuckled and laughed at Juna.


Juna was still silent, even though Rey had gotten out of the elevator and gone to a meeting.


"Huh? Phobia in-law? How humiliating!" The curse in the heart.
