Beautiful House of In-Law



Sakinah family is the desire of every person in entering the household ark. Many people who crave sakinah family, including Rahma who has always tried to maintain her honor and glory as a woman to be presented to her halal lover. Rahma believes and believes, if the sakinah family starts from two people who take care of each other and make the rido of God as a vision of marriage.


One of the goals of the establishment of a sakinah family is to create a cautious person. Sakinah family becomes fertile land for the growth and development of children in order to become pious people.


Even one indicator of the trustworthiness of a family can be for some couples is because of the presence of children between them as evidence of love between the two.


Two years already the household that Rahma and Anggara lived. The past year has been a wonderful moment for both of them in living life as a married couple in general.


The ridiculous deal that ever happened at the beginning of the marriage has been thrown away especially by Anggara. The change in attitude that Anggara showed was even more convincing to Rahma if her choice to give her husband a chance to improve their household was not wrong.


Anggara's past life has been alienated in a dark room forget. He tries hard to prove to Rahma that he deserves a second chance to be a good husband for her.


Ever since her lover decided to leave she was determined and promised Rahma never to remember her again and made her love story in the past a dark record that should have been forgotten.


Household life is both going as well as it should be. Not infrequently Anggara asked Rahma who came to the official house when the wife had a holiday to teach. The relationship between the two families is getting more harmonious.


Rahma's father-in-law who now serves more often in Bandung makes them meet more often. On holidays, Rahma often spends her time at her in-laws' house and even the kitchen at her in-laws' house as if turning into her territory when visiting there.


The happiness and well-being of family life is truly Rahma felt. The hope of becoming a sakinah family, mawadah wa rahmah, once in a lifetime, a heaven is more clearly displayed in front of the eyes.


"Son, your cousin's getting married next week. Tantemu wants you to attend and be his groom's companion" Mama Anggara spoke while enjoying a cup of tea prepared by his beloved daughter-in-law.


This is the weekend, Anggara and Rahma are visiting Anggara's parents' house. Friday night Rahma went to Bandung by train and picked up her husband at the station. The dewy morning, Anggara and her parents were enjoying the tea provided by Rahma, while the girl as usual the kitchen became her favorite area. She was preparing a special breakfast for her husband and father-in-law, assisted by Bi Ijah, who has been devoted to serving in the family for a long time.


"Who wants to marry Ma?" ask Anggara does not know if one of his cousins will hold a wedding. Busyness and differences in profession become one of the causes of their relationship rarely occurs. Anggara was not very active in the big family whatsapp group, occasionally he commented if what was the discussion was on him.


"Andrea, Alhamdulillah finally the twins both have found their soul mate" replied Mama Anggara without looking, her gaze focused on the magazine that had been in her hands since. Not much different from Anggara who also focus on his phone.


"Ouh, Thank God I'm happy" Anggara replied briefly, saying,


"Yes, your aunt and omm are also very happy because Andrea finally wants to accept the girl he was betrothed to. She's your ommm friend's relationship child" Mama Anggara told me unsolicitedly, this rare moment doesn't seem to want her wasted.


"I haven't seen him in a long time" Anggara said,


"Yes, that's why you have to attend so we can have a family reunion. Adiya also often asks you" said Mama Anggara,


"Adiya already wants two children, his wife is pregnant old now" Mama gave information about Anggara's cousin who used to be very close to him, he said,


"Oh yeah? just found out about me" Anggara replied flatly,


"Yes, that's why you really want to have more grandchildren" said mama,


"How's rahma? are there any signs?" mama Anggara shifted the focus of the conversation, the focus of the conversation,


"What signs are you? " ask Anggara pretending not to understand,


"Signs of pregnancy, you've been married long enough. Mama has missed carrying a grandchild" continued mama Anggara, anggara,


Anggara who heard his mother's words immediately stopped his activities, he looked towards the mother and then took a deep breath.


"Ma, we're not trusted yet. Later also, if it is time for God to give Rahma confidence to get pregnant" replied Anggara gently, he does not want this conversation to continue. Because the mother has asked him several times without the knowledge of Rahma, his mother is very hopeful to soon have a grandchild from him.


"Yes my mother knew that it was not our will. But try dong his efforts are considered again. Have you asked Rahma to check yet?" continued mama Anggara who still did not want to end the discussion about it, said Anggara,


"Not Ma, yes later" Anggara replied briefly,


"So soon, son, who knows there's a problem between the two of you. But I'm sure you're healthy, right then and there." mama stopped her words when she saw Anggara staring intently at her, almost saying what she shouldn't have said.


"What time is Ma?" papa who had just been silent listening while reading the newspaper finally made a sound when he no longer heard his mother continue to speak.


"That time Pa, Angga once said that he had been examined and declared healthy" replied the nervous mama, his face turned tense when he saw the gaze of the child who was getting sharp looking at him.


Mama took a deep breath, trying to shake off her nervousness. He also returned the gaze of the child with the meaning of a gaze that only the two of them knew.


"Don't put too much pressure on them Ma, everyone has arranged" exclaimed the wise papa, he stopped reading and took the cup on the table right next to him to enjoy the green tea that Rahma used to provide when visiting her home.


Unbeknownst to them, Rahma was already standing in the doorway connecting the back room with the terrace where the three people were sitting and talking. Rahma was about to tell them breakfast was ready but her steps came to a halt when she heard her mother-in-law speak seriously.


She heard all the talk of her in-laws and husband about children. There was something that suddenly burst into his chest. It is something that makes his heart pinch, the discussion about children is now a sensitive thing for him.
