Because of Lent

Chapter 7. Brother Fahri and Brother Fauzi

*****

"Who's divorced?"

I turned my head when I heard my first brother's voice. I ran and ran into his arms.

"Sorry, Vina, Brother."

"What's the problem? why get divorced?" My brother's face turned red when he asked me.

"We sit down first, brother. I'll tell you everything." Brother Fahri, my eldest brother finally walked ahead of me and sat in the living room chair.

"Hurry up tell me, you were here because you wanted to rent this house, but who would have thought you would give your sister a surprise like this."

"Sorry, Brother. Vina is no longer able to defend Vina's household."

"Why?" fahri's face was very disappointed. He was silent after asking why. Miss Risma went inside. Maybe he's making drinks for Fahri.

"They wronged me, brother. Every day my mother-in-law would corner me. He always said I am barren, even mas Pras is also forbidden to give me a living, just because I work." After saying that, I immediately lowered my head. I did not dare to look at my first brother.

"Why?... Why don't you ever say this to your sister?"

"Vina doesn't want to make Fahri's sister or Fauzi's brother think."

"Me and Fauzi are the surrogates of father and mother. If you only bear it yourself, what will you tell our parents? How can you face them, if your only daughter lives miserable."

"Sister.... " I finally shed my tears hearing Fahri's words. My brother finally came and hugged me tightly.

"I'm sorry, sister. Brother never noticed you."

"No, it's not the brother's fault, Vina who has failed, sister. Forgive Vina."

"So you've never been given a living?" ask brother Fahri as if he was convincing what he heard was not wrong.

"Yes, once Pras gave money 1 million. After 2 months of our marriage, but the next day my mother-in-law accused me of brainwashing mas Pras to make mas Pras reduce my mother's spending money. Because I was always blamed and accused, I gave the money to my mother-in-law. Even when I complained to Mas Pras he seemed ordinary there was no response or intention to change the money, he instead told me to be patient."

"Sister will take care of your divorce papers. Although divorce is very hated by God but maybe your soul mate and Pras just got here," said brother Fahri.

"Yes, Brother."

"Son't call Fauzi first, you take a break first."

"But, brother... I haven't given Kang Dudung the car rental fee."

"Let's just brother."

I finally obeyed the words of my first brother, because I knew he loved me so much, he must be sad at this time also for what happened to me.

I went into my room on the 2nd floor. When opening the door as fragrant as the room so much as to poke my sense of smell. I sat on the edge of the bed and slowly rubbed it. The mattress that I wear when at the Mas Pras house is nothing on the appeal of my mattress. But I don't know why I feel empty. I also spread my body with my legs dangling to the floor. I spread my eyes around the room. On the table was a picture of my parents smiling happily. I smiled too even though my tears were pouring down.

...***...

Sayup-sayup I heard the voice of brother Fahri, he was talking to someone, from his voice sounded full of anger. I also opened my eyes. I can't remember when I fell asleep. It turns out that Mr. Fahri was having a conversation with Mr. Fauzi.

"No need to go to him, he's wasted, Vina. That means we don't have to deal with Pras's family anymore."

"But, brother... "

"Now the most important thing is how we entertain our sister, not even take care of that crazy family. Just one year of marriage they've been arbitrarily on Vina. I can't imagine Vina being there any longer."

"Sister.... "

"Vina." Brother Fauzi came over and hugged me. I just kept quiet and said nothing. Brother Fauzi immediately took off his embrace and rubbed my face.

"What is true that Fahri told you? they wronged you? Why are you keeping quiet? you are a descendant of Adiatirta, why are you softer like a cracker soaked in water?"

"Sorry, Brother. At first I thought that I could solve my own problems without involving you, but I couldn't. I can't stand it."

"It's okay. Brother and sister Fahri will always be around you. We'll support you."

"I will support you too."

"I am too."

"Kendra too, Auntie."

My two in-laws went in with Kendra, Fahri's 9-year-old first child.

"Thank you, Mr. Hani, Rita."

"Sama Kendra didn't thank you?" said the boy sulking.

"Yes Kendra, honey, thank you."

I was amused by my two brothers and my two sisters-in-law. Maybe even under my other nephews.

"Let's go down. The kids are waiting." Take Rita, Fahri's wife.

"Come, Vin. We're going downstairs. You haven't seen Davin in almost a year, have you? said Kak Hani, Kak Fauzi's wife.

I nodded, then I walked to the bathroom first to wash my face. Both my brother and his wives walked out of my room first. I was shocked to find Kendra still waiting for me.

"Lho, Ken, why are you still here?" my many.

"Kendra will wait, Auntie. Aunt Vina, if there's a nasty aunt, don't forget to tell Ken, yes, then let them be a bull Ken."

I laughed at Kendra's words, even though she was a child she was very attentive to me. I ruffled her curly hair, she smiled sweetly and took my hand. We finally went down to the other one.

Below it turns out to be crowded because my two brothers brought all their troops. Fahri has 2 children, while Fauzi has 3 children. Although Fahri got married first, but it seems that the more frequent production is Fauzi's brother.

"Aunty." all my nieces greeted me with their warm smiles.

"Hi, you guys, how are you?"

"We're all fine."

"Davin, now you can draw dong, Aunt."

"Yet you can too, even Kemala yesterday the coloring champion" said second daughter Kak Fahri who is 6 years old.

"Duh, aunt's niece is great all, yeah."

I was really amused by the presence of my brothers' extended family. Without feeling these tears flow back. Brother Fahri clasped my hand with a smile, I rubbed my tears rough, with no sound I thanked him.
