Aunt Melinda

The Existing Cases

The events experienced by Linda, she continues to accept. But he did not dare to complain to his mother or father.

Especially at this time, his father is in a state of pain.

It made Linda even quieter with how she felt.

Until one day, she was no longer able to hold back for the pain, as a result of the blow after blow she received from her own husband, the Ferry police.

Linda left home, along with her six-month-old son.

"Linda?"

Linda's arrival, of course, made her mother surprised. Moreover, his arrival was with his son, on foot and without her husband who drove her home.

"Yet. Linda couldn't take it anymore. Look Buk. Hiks hyks..."

Linda showed me some parts of her body, which was clearly visible if she had just been hit.

In fact, some already looked like old bruises, as they began to fade.

"This is who did it Linda. Why are you keeping quiet? Why not complain to your husband?"

Linda's mother, in fact, misunderstood what happened to her son. He thought if, someone else did all this, to his son. And her husband, the Ferry cop, knows nothing about the state of his wife.

Fortunately, Linda's baby is sleeping. Once inside the house, Linda immediately put the baby into the room, so as not to hear her voice that was trying to complain about her husband's actions all this time to her.

"What's up Lin? what's going on?"

His mother kept asking Linda.

"Hiks... Buk. This is what Mas Ferry Buk did!"

Finally, Linda told me about her condition, from a few months ago, when she was pregnant.

Linda's mother, of course, felt very surprised, by what Linda just said.

He never thought that, his son-in-law who seemed polite and loving to his son, would do all that to his own wife.

Moreover, at the time Linda was in a state of old pregnancy as well.

"You're not making this up, are you Lin?" ask Linda's mother, who still doesn't believe that this is what Ferry's police did.

Linda, who was still in a state of tears, nodded in agreement to the question from her mother.

"If it goes on like this, Linda can't survive Buk. His son Linda's father, too, if he had grown up to see his mother, who was like this, because it was from his own father."

Linda shook her head, looking at her mother's face, who still felt that none of this was true.

"Is your husband in trouble? Or is it because of your own fault?"

Linda's mother asked in probing. And it seems she still doubts that, what she saw and heard from Linda, never happened.

"Mom still can't believe what Linda's going through?"

"If so, let Linda go also from this house. Linda would not if, Ferry came and asked Linda back again. But he had no change in his attitude and behavior."

Linda is determined to leave her mother's house, if she can't believe what she said earlier, about her husband's behavior, Ferry police.

"It's not so Linda. You are patient. It's possible that your husband is in trouble, or whatever," said Linda's mother, who eventually softened as well.

Perhaps, her mother also felt afraid if, Linda really went away from home and did not return to her husband.

In fact, all this time Linda's mother, always talked about the virtues, from her daughter-in-law, who works as a police officer.

If people knew, he would be ridiculed and ridiculed, for having a temperamental son-in-law who mistreated his own wife.

Because it's getting dark Linda said to go take a shower. She asked her mother to take care of her son, who was still asleep in his room, when he was not married.

That room, it hasn't been occupied by Linda in a long time. There are many memories that Linda cannot forget, if she is in the room.

In addition to the memories of Romi, he also remembered something, which he used to often do to make himself feel satisfied.

And it's been a long time since he's done it again.

*****

At the police station. The place where Ferry police are on duty.

He was facing the boss, to account for his actions, who yesterday beat up his own friend, a fellow policeman.

Ferry police also do not know if, his wife at home, has gone to the house of his parents, because they can not stand it anymore, with his behavior and his abusive behavior.

"I'm just defending myself Ndan."

Ferry police, trying to provide an explanation for his self-defense, from questions raised by his commander.

So yesterday, at about eleven o'clock in the afternoon, there was a fight between police officers. That's the Ferry cop with one of his colleagues, a fellow cop as well.

I don't know what they were arguing about, so there was a dispute between the two of them.

And the policeman Ferry, who was known to be a little more temperamental, hit his friend with a wooden stick that was not far from where he was.

His friend, who suffered serious injuries, was hospitalized.

Ferry police, rampaging without being prevented by his other friends. And it results in considerable amounts of injuries and needs medical treatment.

Currently, in addition to getting a special call from his commander, Ferry police must also be detained, until the case is tried militarily.

Moreover, this case is not only the first time, it was carried out by Ferry police.

A few years ago, when he was not married, and served in a police station in another city, also had a ban.

And one year ago, he got a warning letter, for his habit of drinking, while on a night vigil at the police station.

He was warned often. Already had a pay cut, for the cost of repairing equipment, which was accidentally broken when he was drunk.

Never also in fines, when hitting others, who accidentally nudged his car, while in the parking lot.

And all this time, his wife, Linda, can only be silent and never protest.

Because if Linda protested, there would be a gift of slaps, or free kicks, to Linda's body.

That is why, Linda did not dare to ask or comment, if her husband was coming home under any circumstances.

She was only obedient to what her husband said, even though there were many things that she herself was craving, and could explode at any time until later.

Perhaps now is the time, where the fate of the Ferry police is determined.

Good for his career as a cop, and his housewife, along with Linda.

The village flower, which has withered without getting the attention and rays of happiness, was once promised by Ferry police.
