Against Julid's In-laws

Ill

"We, your stomach is getting bigger, but I see Adit is getting negligent in giving you a living. How do you keep doing for you later ? You know your own mother and father are also now in trouble."

"Don't know, Mom, Dita's dizzy ! What if we look for Bagas with Ayu to Jakarta ? I'm sure they'll help. If we don't, we force it. How, Mom ?"

"Well, when ?"

In the midst of the conversation between me and my mother, suddenly my father came home.

"Lho, how come you've come home ?

There is something strange about my father. His lips were deathly pale, his face looked weak, tired and lethargic, like people had not eaten all day. But, instead of answering, he went straight to the kitchen. Mom and I were worried that something might happen, so we just followed her into the kitchen and watched her behavior. I drank a glass of water until it ran out. My mother and I kept asking her how she was, but she didn't answer right away. His behavior is like that of a dazed man.

"Sir, why the hell ? Like a kuntilanak mute kesambet people !"

"Mom, please make some warm tea. My head feels so dizzy."

Without asking any questions from us, he went into the room. Meanwhile, Mom made tea for you, I followed you to the room first. It was seen that the father laid his body on the bed and wrapped his entire body in a thick blanket like a cold person.

"Sick father ?"

"Dita, please call Doctor Eko. Your head hurts like in a prick. Cold but hot body."

I hold your hand, sure, his hand is hot like a frying pan. I rushed to Doctor Eko Karen's house usually at this hour she hasn't been to the clinic.

...

"How is my Father, Doctor ?" I asked when the Doctor finished checking on Mr.

"Pak Ramli's condition is less stable. His blood pressure is very high. Please keep the diet, do not be too tired, and do not think too much. I've given you a recipe, please drink as recommended. His father is guarded, Ma'am. High blood pressure is dangerous if left unchecked. It can trigger a heart attack or even a stroke."

"Gosh, bad, too, Doc."

"Yes, that's why it should be considered really. This recipe can be taken at my clinic. Just show me the recipe."

"Good, Doc. Thank you." Thank you."

Doctor Eko was very pleased. Luckily in this village, there are Doctors like Doctor Eko who apply the system to visit patients at home, if the condition is an emergency like Mr. currently.

...

"Mom, where's the money to pay for your recipe."

"Mom doesn't have any money, Dit."

"Task me, you know how to hold money."

Without much talking the mother went into the room, and after waiting for a while the mother returned empty-handed. It seems like you don't have any money either. How is this ? I don't hold money either. The allotment from Mas Adit a week is only fifty thousand. If you ask again, he must have many reasons and it will definitely not be loved.

"Where is this, Dit ? If the medicine is not redeemed, I'm afraid you're getting worse. You heard it yourself, said Doctor Eko."

"Okay, Mom. Make it dizzy. Yes already, mending I'm looking for a loan with the neighbors. That's the only solution now. Ihh, life is so hard like this ?!"

Mom hasn't been back in a while. I who began to be frustrated can only go back and forth to the front of the room to see the condition of the Father. Come to think of it, it's been hard for our lives. Eating is hard, getting sick is also difficult. Anyway, there is only the Father, the condition is difficult again this way, you use all the pain. Make it harder.

"Dit, here's the money. You canned the recipe, Father." Mother handed me a hundred thousand bills.

"It's a long time, Mom ?! Who got minjem from, ma'am ?"

"From The Diamond."

"Ih, what is Ma'am, minjem money with him ? The Diamond is like a gambreng grandmother and her mouth is. kayak razor, tajem !"

"Well, who else would borrow it from ? our neighbors here are the average poor. Only Si Intan aja good economy, her husband is actually a cruise. Forget it, forget about it. What matters now is that you can take your medicine first. Get paid and get the cure."

Oh, never mind, I let it go. Later if I meet Si Intan I pretend never use his money. After all, that minjem mother is not me.

"Mom, what is Father ? Did you not work nearly two weeks ? Where we eat only the same eggs, sometimes only the same vegetables doang. If you don't keep working, we can't eat, Mom ! Mother does not feel sorry for me who is pregnant this way but eating is not nutritious, not regular anyway !"

"Mom thought it was like that too, Dit. But what do you want ? Mom can't do anything. Side work also has no call from Ms. Fatimah. Mmm, or try to call Ayu or Bagas again. Who knows if they can be contacted, Dit."

"Those are no news, ma'am. Difficult sonorous. Want us to find until the ant hole will not meet if they are not willing to meet with us. After all, the condition of the father again sick, where can be left to find them."

"Yes, yeah. How are we supposed to do this, Dit ? Where you ask for money first with Adit. You are also his wife, not given money. I have no money to buy vegetables. In the kitchen there is nothing else. Poor Dad hasn't eaten yet. It's not healthy, it's sicker."

"Hhmm, actually Dita lazy to rented, Mom. I'm gonna have to see that Bella chick. But what else do you want ? Yes, it is !"

For the sake of filling an empty stomach this afternoon, I would willingly have to walk to Mas Adit's contract and the actor. But, just stepping out of the house, suddenly my stomach feels bad.

"Oh, ma'am. Well, sick ma'am !"

"Mules why, Dit ?

"Ouch... Mom, it hurts ! I think Dita wants to be born, ma'am !"

"Huh ? Want a lahiran ?"

"Oh, ma'am..it hurts a lot !"

"Oh Allah, Dita...why should be born now, anyway ? Your father was sick when my mother stayed ?"

"Ihh, Mother ! Which fields can be predicted, ma'am ! Ouch... It hurts, my stomach. Seek help, Mom ! I can't stand the pain, Mom !'

Prang !

"The sound of the glass breaking ! Why your father, Dit ?"

"Duh, I'm gonna go get help first. My son wants brojol, here's !" My screams were ignored by my mother. The woman who gave birth to me went into the room. I can't stand this pain.

"Please !"
