BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL

BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL
86. Gathering



My mom finally got a reply for that patience.


"You know Ra, you don't have a son, but after Ken's daughter-in-law, you can feel how happy it is to have a son who is devoted to his mother. Ken not only put himself as a son-in-law, but also played a childlike role in his mother.


You know how good Ken is, as well as his family. They treated my mom like family. Ken's parents did not visit because they were still in Australia taking care of his grandson who was also sick, but they always asked about the news.


Ken also, almost every day contact and even visit mama by bringing a variety of simple things but it could be proof that he considers mama as his own mother.


All that feels amazing for mama Ra and makes mama happy so mama thinks maybe this is the fruit of your patience when papa does evil to mama. Not all evil must be avenged, son, sometimes God will avenge it" said Mama.

As Ken and I guessed, Papa and his family didn't just stay quiet. They are still fighting for the money and stuff we confiscated. We realized, the name of the problem must be faced, can not continue to be avoided, so we met again at the home of the mother, therefore the request of the mother who wants to be involved in solving this problem. My mom felt that everything was related to her.


Early in the morning they came to my mother's house, fortunately we came first. From the look on his face I know papa, Aunt Wira and Elsa still hold anger. Naturally, the money and goods we hold.


Actually, I told Ken to just get his things back, because we didn't know what to do either. But mama forbid because Mama said they should have a deterrent effect. It's nice to spend money with other people.


"We're going to take this matter into legal custody if Ken doesn't return our money and belongings!" said Aunt Wira firmly.


"Please Aunt report, I'm ready to meet at the green table!" said Ken with a firm tone. "Papa did not forget, with the documents that have been signed, about the agreement that will not sell the goods I give. Remember the Pa? We will have to live the whole thing. How's it?"


Ken's expression made papa and his wife speechless. They look at each other.


"Then how?" ask papa. "when we have to go home with nothing, you really have no feelings. The money belongs to my wife, as well as to our living expenses. Because it was confiscated with Ken, we became experiencing economic difficulties" said papa.


Ken and I were about to answer, but my mom, who had been listening to me from the beginning, asked Ken and me to shut up.


"Ra, kiddo Ken .. Let mama do the talking. All these problems started because my mother did not solve our past problems, so now everything is so complicated like this" said Mama. "Mas, Mrs Wira .. I really don't like your attitude towards my son and my daughter-in-law."


"Eh Rahayu, Rara and Ken are also my daughters-in-law!" papa said, in a high tone, making all of us shocked, even Dinda who was sitting waiting inside came straight out.


I used my son and my daughter-in-law, extorting them so badly. Already that, lace them with vile and harsh words. I whose real mother will not have the heart to say that to him, why you who are irresponsible parents even immediately say my daughter.


Mbak Wira ... why should I cuss Rara all? Did my past mistakes not teach me a lesson? Why hasn't it changed since I have two children. Want them to mimic the nature of mbak? Is it not shameful?


After all, if it is mass-alibi that the money seized by Ken son for your life, use logic too, if you want to make excuses do not make it up. My son and my daughter-in-law may feel sorry for you and your family, but they're not stupid. Is that money for living expenses or to buy jewelry? Tell me honestly, man? After all, from the information we get, he said that Wira also wants to buy more, meaning that the money is also a lot of dong? What Ken confiscated was his right, so don't worry anymore.


I warned you, for the first and last time. If you continue to disturb my son and my daughter-in-law, then we will meet the legal path as Wira had envisioned. How's it?" challenge mama.


Papa and Aunt Wira looked at each other again. From the way they gulped, it looked right that they were frightened.


Never underestimate people who do not like to be angry because usually once he is angry it will be quite hard and can not be bargained.


"Have explained?" mama said again.


"Ra, how's this?" papa looked at me with a wailing face. "Papa has nothing. You want your aunt to divorce Papa? If we split up, who's going to take care of papa?"


"Astagfirullah, papa. When my mom and dad separated, I took care of everything myself. Even bring two young children. Papa wants to lose to mama? Don't get married just because someone is financing us. Papa's a man, how long will it depend on women?" I said.


"Rome!" Papa didn't accept my answer.


"Don't snap at my daughter, mas!" said mama.


"That's my daughter too!" said papa.


"Your daughter? Why haven't you taken care of all this time? You are the one who should be most responsible for children, your obligation to finance and support them. But you don't exist. Where is your responsibility? Don't be like a man who is not responsible, after his son succeeds, then you come back just to take advantage of them" said Mama.


"Well, why bring up the past? I guess you have no shame. If you can be a good wife, my husband will not switch. But this all happens because you also cannot serve your husband well." said Aunt Wira.


"Astagfirullah, can you still blame me? Ask your husband Wira, how I try to serve him with all my heart. But your husband does not know himself. You also took part in our household matters in the past. You're the one who cheated, aren't you?" said mama with a trembling voice because it held tightness.
