Aunt Melinda

All Are No Longer the Same

Arriving home, Linda immediately prepared everything, which was requested by the recipient of the new employee.

"The real one in the kumpulin Darling?" ask her husband, Ferry.

Ferry was surprised, because he saw Linda who was so coming, went straight into the room and collected all the original files, which were copied yesterday.

"The HRD asked for the original file to match the application file that was a copy of the photo," Linda replied, giving an explanation to her husband.

"Not asked for the original to be a cover file, right?" Ferry asked again with a search.

"So. Just to match, really," said Linda, repeating her answer earlier.

Although actually Ferry did not really like what the company's HRD asked for, but he could not go with anything. Because his wife, Linda, does need a job for now.

A few days ago, Ferry was negotiating with the rice mill, to ask for a place, for his business in buying and selling rice and rice.

The real effort has been done by Ferry, since he was a police officer.

But because it used to be done with nothing serious, and managed by others, the results still do not exist.

Even so the loss, because the business capital issued by Ferry, can not return. That is why, his previous efforts in rice milling are no longer continued.

And now, when he's no longer a cop, Ferry wants to build his business again. Managed by himself.

Ferry chose this venture because, his family who were out of town, also worked in the same field. Selling rice and rice.

While the side can sell bran or bran, for fodder.

Bran is a byproduct of rice milling in producing rice. Rice bran is used as fodder, because it has a high nutritional content, the price is relatively cheap, easy to obtain, and its use does not compete with humans.

Most people do not eat bran. Although recent research in America states that, bran is a source of nutrition in the future.

**Will anyone try to prove it by eating bran?

But, for the time being, Ferry did not tell Linda. He wanted to try first, and if he succeeded, he would tell his wife.

"Where's Erli Mas?" asked Linda, who had not seen Erli's whereabouts since she had come home earlier.

"So she was taken to the house of the same mother Danang."

"Take Danang home?" Linda repeated the answer given by her husband, with a question.

He felt that, he had misheard or interpreted the answer given by Ferry earlier.

But as it turned out, Ferry nodded in agreement to his question.

"Cooky Mas can?" linda asked again, looking at her husband.

"Why? What's wrong with Erli being invited by Danang to return to his home?" tanya Ferry, who was confused by Linda's attitude this time.

Normally, Linda would not behave like this, when it came to her own family.

"But Mas, Linda does not want if Erli does not want to be brought home later," said Linda, who apparently worried if, her son, Erli, will be difficult to bring home to their own home. Because it's been a long time, Erli was not invited to visit his symbiotic house.

Since Linda decided to keep her marriage with Ferry police, even though now her husband is no longer a police officer.

And his mother and sister, Danang, did not really like what Linda decided.

That's why Linda never came to her mother's house again. She did not want her mother, who would give her input, to part with her own husband.

Though in the past, her mother was also the most excited, to unite Linda with the Ferry police.

But now, her mother also wants her son, Linda, to be separated from her husband as well.

So, according to Linda's mother, Linda should be able to live a good life, by marrying a rich person, or at least be able to support Linda materially.

Linda's mother, of course, thinks the same as people in general, if the beauty of a woman, can bring their lives in the future for the better. Even though it is only seen in terms of material.

But because Linda does not have the same thoughts as her mother's mind, eventually their relationship becomes no longer the same as before.

There was a kind of partition, which made the two of them unable to have one goal and one thought.

But this time Linda did not want to lose to her mother. She did not obey her mother's words, to part with her husband.

Although Linda was uncomfortable with her marriage as well. But this was made Linda as evidence also to her mother that, if her judgment and decision in the past, when asking Linda to accept Ferry police as her husband, it was the wrong decision.

Linda made herself in response, to what her mother wanted at the time.

And Linda is very satisfied, with what she is doing right now. She saw her mother disappointed and regretted her decision.

But this is what Linda did for her son, Erli. Not his selfishness.

*****

At Linda's mother's house.

Danang, who had just come, took his nephew down from the rickshaw.

So, Danang came to Ferry's house, to take Erli by using a rickshaw vehicle.

The rickshaw he borrowed from his neighbor, who happened to be on a work holiday.

"Assynoltom..."

Danang said his greetings, when he opened the door.

"Wallaikumsalam..."

From inside the house, there was the voice of his father, who was more often at home than going to work outside the house.

"Eh. there's Erli. Come on, honey, same Mbah Kung!"

Erli happily, asked to move from Danang's sling. He instead wants to be carried with his feet, because it has not met for a long time.

Now, her father Linda is taking her granddaughter, to play in the living room.

"This is Erli's toy there are still many in the sewage house," said his father Linda, bringing some toys Erli, who was in his house.

"Chap... Mbah," called Erli, who could not continue his sentence, because he was hard to mention one by one the toys he wanted.

"What Honey? Which toy do you want?" ask the sembahnya feet, by choosing the toys in the cardboard.

It was possible, there was a toy he could find, and it was liked by Erli.

"Nang, you didn't say anything!" ask her father Linda, who wants to know how her son is doing.

"Mbak Linda is not at home sir" Danang said, answering a question from her father.

"Well, how come you're not home? Where'd you go, anyway?"

The question asked by his father was like someone who was worried.

Of course, her father Linda felt very worried, with the state of the child. He wouldn't want anything to happen to Linda.

Events that had been experienced by Linda, consciously or not, had made her father traumatized. Even though he never said it, and just kept quiet more.
