Being the Second Wife of the President
must be strong to live life
in the morning, the sunlight passed between the curtains swinging swinging swinging, woke up a beautiful woman who was sleeping soundly.I blinked my eyes to see the clock on the nightstand turned out to be morning. because most of the crying so I fall asleep. stupidly I use all sleepiness . forget to change clothes. then I walk to the bathroom in the room, which is in the room, and then I walk to the bathroom, jeez, how surprised I was to see the contents of the bathroom were so vast different from the ones in my house .
I was confused by the button in the bathtub, I pressed the red button for the warm water, I took off all my clothes and tried to soak in a very wide bath, I enjoyed the sensation of warm water hitting the pores of the skin on my body, it was so soothing that I felt so lazy to get up, I closed my eyes for a moment .
It did not feel like I had been soaking for 15 minutes, then I rubbed my body with liquid soap on the small table. Then I put on bathrobe aka bathrobe, bathrobe, aka bathing suit, then I walked to the wardrobe and put on the clothes I brought from home. After I put on the clothes, I went to the dresser to polish thin makeup and put on thin lipstick, and opening the room door to go downstairs, I went down the stairs and it turned out that my uncle, aunt and hana were already in the dining room. it doesn't feel good that I have breakfast at the dinner table because I'm being stared at cynically by my aunt and her son.
"zahra come here, we have breakfast together." uncle invited me to join breakfast with them all on the table.
"Good morning uncle,.auntie,.hana. "my nervous speech did not dare to look at the three of them.
"good morning zahra, "so my uncle smiled warmly .but only uncle greeted me, not with these 2 women in front of me. then I pulled out a chair and sat down. I turned the plate over, then uncle thrust a container of fried rice in front of me.
"eat zahra, this fried rice is very good, or you want to eat bread. please do you want to eat which one??
I took the fried rice and put it on my plate, and started putting the fried rice in my mouth. And chew slowly. Very good very similar to the cuisine of my mother.I smiled bitterly staring at the food that the smoke was still steaming.
the atmosphere seemed silent, because everything on the dining table seemed to enjoy their breakfast, I lowered my head while feeding the fried rice into my mouth until it was left, not left, I picked up the tissue in the container box and rubbed the corners of my lips.I got up from the chair wanting to carry the dirty dishes towards the kitchen but uncle kept me from doing so.
"you're sitting there enjoying dessert pudding, for dirty dishes let the waiters take her to the kitchen." He said again and I complied and sat back next to my uncle.
"let's just pa, if he wants to help bring the plate." chirped hana smiled mockingly.
"hana..," snapped my uncle with eyes that stared intently at him.
"zahra is your cousin and not someone else."he growled again holding back the annoyance of seeing his only child acting as he pleased.
"why the hell pa? papa always defended her." hana pointed at me with her cynical gaze, then she flicked the chair and ran towards her room .
my uncle let out a rough sigh, seeing his son's outrageous behavior, but I became uneasy because I and my uncle got into a fight.
"zahra you don't put it in the heart yah hana just now" said my uncle softly.
suddenly aunt Rani came and said the words that hurt my heart.
"why why the hell make our child "hana" cry, what because of him our child cried earlier. "pointing my aunt with eyes so fierce.
"already ma, you do not muddy the atmosphere. zahra is our nephew." asserted uncle tio passed away.
"it's all because of you." snapped aunt Rani and then she stomped her feet up and left me alone.
the tears that I endured, finally escaped as well. "you must be strong zahra, can not cry,"my little heart said to strengthen myself. I wiped away these tears and walked towards the park which was quite spacious.I was pensive to think of my parents.it was true uncle Tio was a kind-hearted rich man, because he was the younger brother of my mother. he was quite successful with his efforts, indeed he was the best and dear to me from childhood only aunt and son from the past very disliked me.
Because the company where papa worked went bankrupt so there was no income anymore, the old house in the city was sold, then we moved family and papa bought a house in a village far from the city. yes, I think it is quite beautiful and very cool because in mountainous areas, because my parents' savings are not much.
papa and mama eventually became hydroponic vegetable farmers and had a land that is not too large but suitable for growing chili and other vegetables. Papa and mama's business grew rapidly to eventually increase the land area, and finally increase the land area, every uncle and aunt I play at our house in the village, surely aunty will be angry and sneer with her spicy mouth.he said our house is very small, already so hot there is no AC. and so on, I smiled faintly and let out a long sigh. "until when am I here????, while aunt and hana really dislike me . do I have to leave here, but...!!! I woke up from daydreaming because someone was patting me on the shoulder.
"ehh non zahra, what is it here, how come daydreaming???"tanya bi Nur, a very kind middle-aged woman.
I turned my head and smiled, "ehh bi Nur, zahra again did not say anything, just sitting enjoying the breeze bi nur." said I honestly, I remember my late parents.
"non zahra, if the heart of non zahra alda that obstructs can tell the same story bi Nur, "said bi Nur softly.
I shook my head, "no bi Nur, just remembered the late papa and mama alone .
bi Nur rubbing my back gives strength, so that I am steadfast and patient, must sincerely not be sad. must be strong to live a long life.
I shook my head, and hugged bi Nur but unfortunately these tears escaped as well, until unstoppable again.I tried hard but what is this heart power is still hurt after what happened.
"non zahra, do not need to torture yourself or feel guilty, because it is the will of God's destiny.we can only resign and pray alone." said bi Nur heart so that I am not offended.
I wiped the corners of my eyes that had been wet with my tears and wiped them roughly.It is true what bi Nur said if I had to be strong, so I could get through it all. I give spirit to myself.
I smiled, "thank you yahh bi". I'm lirih.
same non, yes already bi Nur want to go back to want to finish the work pending. let non," said bi Nur passed away .
"you say what's here." he snapped in a shrill voice.
I turned my head, it turned out that my aunt was already in front of my eyes with her haughty style.with eyes so sharp with her hands folded in front of her chest.
"umm, Aunt Rani I just sat in the garden, "I bow my head not daring to look at her.
"it's good to sit back, you're the mistress of this house, I'm the mistress of this house." said Aunt Rani.
then tell me to take care of his favorite flower. With a sigh I did the job, I know he deliberately did this to me, after more than 30 minutes I have finished everything, I know,
"loh zahra, you are here." replied uncle tio, I turned my head and smiled kindly at him to cover my sorrow. I tried to keep smiling so that Uncle Tio didn't know I had just cried.
"yes uncle I've been watering the flowers here." I said to uncle tio.
"you want to water the flowers here, this is already working. already taro it scissors and a place to water it, come with uncle." he said again.
then I patted the remains of the leaves attached to my body, I immediately walked following the steps of uncle. Our steps stopped in the room where there were a lot of books lined up neatly.
"what's the matter uncle." I said staring at my uncle's black netra.
"you have sat down first, Zahra." he said again.
I began to sit on the sofa facing my uncle with straight eyes staring at him.
"this is zahra, do you want to go to college again??" ask uncle.
I was silent to my uncle's words, I twisted the edge of my shirt. confused to answer what. "i want to go to college but I'm not good with my uncle." I said in my heart.
"how zahra, do you want to go to college again." My uncle repeated his words to me.
"ummm.., how yahh uncle zahra is confused, and frankly zahra is not good with uncle and aunt, zahra is very grateful to be able to stay here." I said softly while holding back the tears that were almost about to fall. But as much as possible I need to be strong
"you don't have to be bad, we are family.we should have helped each other."Sighs harshly at my words.
"yes you've thought about it, just tell uncle." He said, then uncle got up from the chair rushed out of his study, I followed my uncle's steps from behind.
me and my uncle went down the stairs, it was time for lunch. I rushed to follow my uncle's steps to the dining table there was already Aunt Rani and hana. As usual they looked at me cynically and arrogantly.
I chose an empty seat away from the two next to my uncle on the left, then pulled out one of the chairs and began to sit down. I was so amazed that there was so much food on the dining table. I was confused about what to eat.I took fried chicken and sweet-sour shrimp just on my plate and put rice and side dishes into my mouth, we enjoyed lunch on the plate each no one spoke at all. After finishing the meal it seemed like uncle wanted to talk to all of us at the dinner table.
"papa wants to talk to all of you" said my uncle.
"what do you want to talk about anyway, I want to be ready to be ready to go to the campus anymore." hana grumbled with a tone that sounded sniffy.
my uncle glanced at the sharp hana, until he immediately fell silent pouting but strangely his eyes were staring sinisterly at me.
"papa will enroll in zahra college at your college hana" said my uncle to his son.
"W-did papa say, zahra one campus with me, oh my god it's impossible. I gamau one campus with the girl." Hana pointed at me with her cynical gaze.I bowed my head just don't dare to look at her.
"umm, P-paman, zahra gamau college. Z-zahra just wants to work uncle." I said honestly while looking into his eyes.
"why zahra, you don't want to be a doctor." Uncle tio.
"well he said he gamau college pa, continue why papa maksa really tell him to study at the campus hana." ketus hana sewot.
"The weird part is, why the hell are you so anxious to lecture him." pointed Aunt Rani at me with glaring eyes.
"you two why the hell can't be nice to zahra, because you're still cousins and mama, zahra's your niece too." said my uncle held back the irritation of seeing his son and wife who always disliked me.
my uncle is kneeling his temple looking at the behavior of both of them who always make the emotions of the soul. Because they both why can't be nice to zahra's cousin and nephew
"emm uncle zahra just want to work, zahra gamau nyusahin uncle and aunt." Reveal me bowing my head not daring to answer more or else.
"it's good to be self-aware, if you trouble us all" he replied no less tightly
"MAMA.."sook my uncle to his wife who was late
" why pa, the fact is that he's just a burden here." Sindir aunty Rani to me
then Aunt Rani got up from her seat and pushed her violently.so was the same.my heart ached to hear the words of Aunt Rani wanted to cry but I could bear it. my uncle pulled his hair in frustration at the way the two were behaving, took a deep breath and walked up to me.
"zahra forgive your aunt and hana yahh, they don't mean to say that" said the uncle of heart afraid I was offended.
"it's okay uncle, I can understand really. And I'm aware that I'm here just hitchhiking." I said softly.
my uncle patted me on the shoulder, "you have to be patient with your aunt's attitude and how yahh, actually they are good." said my uncle.
I nodded my head and immediately rushed up. After reaching the room and locked it tightly. The tears I held finally escaped as well, I sobbed and hiccupped. there was still a gush of contempt from aunt Rani and Hannah, "God why they both so dislike me." I cried a sigh and walked to the bed, laying my body on it. strengthen my heart to stay strong and strong to face the reality that exists.
