Chapters. 72 Markets

All of Arsya's strange attitudes continue. After going home last night and going straight to bed not even greeting him, the man also left again after the dawn prayer. I don't know where, because Arsya just said to rush away.

Alisha fears that her marriage will be the same as her previous one. Arsya's nonchalant attitude makes Alisha prejudiced.

"Astaghfirullah." Alisha rubbed her own chest. Pray in his heart that what he fears will not come true.

The ringing of the cell phone captured Alisha's attention. He left behind all prejudice and immediately approached the flat white object he placed on the nightstand.

"Asnalamaikum, Salwa. How are you?" greet Alisha so shifted the green icon that plastered on the phone screen.

There Salwa answered Alisha's greetings cheerfully while answering the news that Alisha asked. Initially wanted to tell a story about the Muslim fashion store Alisha but Salwa unraveled because the question about her best friend's first night was more interesting curiosity. It would be very exciting to tease Alisha about it even though Salwa could not see the reddish face of Alisha who was embarrassed.

"You're still a child and you don't deserve to know about adult affairs" Alisha replied with a laugh.

From his voice, there was a disappointed and ostensibly sulking tone from Salwa. He was very curious but Alisha teased him by not speaking a bit. But Salwa was not angry. He knew exactly how Alisha and her friend were keeping the word.

Salwa understands that the attitude Alisha takes is correct, because it is not appropriate to also tell intimate things between husband and wife to others unless it is necessary. Not as a joke.

"Please handle it first, while looking for someone who can be trusted to help you. For a while maybe I haven't been able to go to Solo," Alisha said in response to Salwa's words about her Muslim fashion store.

After talking about the store, Salwa and Alisha chat about Jimmy. Salwa asks a few questions about her husband's manager and Alisha answers as long as she knows.

About fifteen minutes Salwa and Alisha were talking on the phone. Alisha ended the call first because Bi Sumi called her.

"Yes ... Bi, why?"

"Mbak Alisha wants what masakin, this Aunt wants to go to the vegetable shopping market. Let's have Aunt go shopping."

Alisha put the end of the phone she was holding onto her chin. Seemed to think with Bi Sumi's question. "I want to pepes of catfish, but I'm coming to the market can I, Bi?"

Slightly flinched but Bi Sumi assented as well. "Byeah, Ma'am."

Bi Sumi's permission immediately brought Alisha running to take a change of clothes. Meanwhile, Bi Sumi waited for Alisha below.

It only takes less than five minutes Alisha has come down with a gray robe and black hijab. It was also a wallet he held.

"We're taking an angkot or taxi, Ma'am?" Bi Sumi was confused because she asked Alisha. If long ago when Arsya's parents were still alive, he was escorted by a driver even though he only shopped to the market. But since living alone with her husband guarding the large house owned by the late Surya Bagaspati, Bi Sumi prefers to take an angkot only if it goes to the market.

"Normally what does Bi Sumi ride?"

"If Auntie ya usually just ride the angkot, Ma'am."

"Then we ride the angkot as usual."

Agreeing to take the angkot, Alisha and Bi Sumi depart. Bi Sumi took Alisha to the market closest to Alisha's in-laws' residence. Where he always shopped for basic necessities.

The bus stops right in front of the market. Alisha goes out first to pay the freight on the driver.

"Mother Alisha really want to come in?" Sumi doubtful.

"Yes, but ... right?"

"Bi, going to the market is not a strange thing for me. Bi Sumi forgot where I came from?" Alisha seemed to remind the late-in-law's domestic assistant about her identity from the lower classes. Therefore, going to the market is a common thing that he does.

"Sorry Ma'am, Bibi didn't mean to___"

"That's okay, let's go," cut Alisha quick.

Bi Sumi just according. They came in and started shopping. Starting from buying vegetables and kitchen spices. I just bought meat and fish.

"Mr Alisha, isn't this mostly?" Sumi was astonished by the large number of items that Alisha bought. If it used to be like this shopping feels ordinary, but since living alone with Bi Sumi's husband only a little shopping.

"No, Bi. Let's get to the next three days." Alisha pat Bi Sumi on the shoulder.

"It could be a week Ma'am."

Alisha smiled. "Is there anything else you're willing to buy?"

"No, that's enough."

Feeling that there was nothing else to buy, Alisha and Bi Sumi decided to go straight home. Can't wait to execute the pepes patin that Alisha wants.

They were waiting for the angkot in the same place he was taken down. Just about to cross the street, Alisha and Bi Sumi are approached by an unknown young man. With a quick movement the young man took the wallet in Alisha's hand.

Alisha who was cool chatting with Bi Sumi was unable to maintain her wallet. In an instant, his chocolate wallet changed hands and was taken away.

"Drug!" yell Alisha reflex.

"Drug!" Bi Sumi also shouted when she realized Alisha's wallet was taken by someone.

The attention of the people around them was immediately drawn to Alisha. Then a young man who was running away carried Alisha's wallet. Some people who saw were chasing.

Alisha and Bi Sumi try to catch up. They ran after the young man hoping his wallet could come back. But when the young man was no longer seen Alisha and Bi Sumi stopped.

Their breaths went up and down so tired. Alisha is resigned if her wallet is destined to be lost.

"Already, Bi. No need to be chased anymore. Let's just say it's money, no letters or cards are important." Alisha chose to give up the amount of money left in the wallet rather than running back. He felt sorry for Bi Sumi who helped him pursue the pickpocket.

"But the money, Ma'am?"

"Let's go, Bi. Let's just go home." Alisha and Bi Sumi started to turn around. Thinking about going home.

Not far away, someone from behind called out. "Mom, wait!"

Hearing someone calling, Alisha and Bi Sumi compactly turned their heads.

"Alisha?" A young man was shocked to see Alisha's face. Didn't expect that the wallet he saved from the pickpocket belonged to someone he had known for a long time.
