201. The Demon-Cared Woman

Ustadz Akbar asks Ramon and Rex to accompany him to talk to Elvira's biological mother. He does not want to be slandered if he talks alone with the woman. In addition to his status which is also no longer married, the content of the conversation to be discussed is also confidential and only known by Rex.

" Why do we talk to other people, it's our family business" Elvira's mother said.

" Not our family but about Elvira. You didn't forget that you weren't my family since you divorced Ashar...?" tanya ustadz Akbar cynical.

" Ck, Yes I know. But somehow Elvira is Mas's nephew as well..," said Elvira's mother while clucking.

" Elvira's my niece. Right. Elvira is my poor niece.", said Ustadz Akbar with a cynical smile.

" Why did Mas Akbar say that...?" ask Elvira's mom not to like it.

" Did I call it that wrong ?. Elvira has complete parents. Even if you split up, it should be able to give her the love she deserves. Elvira is a grown-up and not demanding. He knows how much love he can get from you. Elvira was not wrong, her parents made the decision but why did she have to bear it...?!" ustadz Akbar was angry.

" Why are you angry with me ?. Ashar also has to take responsibility...?!" said Elvira's mother did not lose out loud.

" I also rebuked Ashar. So you don't need to be envious..," said Ustadz Akbar.

" Surely he didn't respond Mas that's why Mas is suppressing me now..," said Elvira's mother.

" You...!" ustadz Akbar's speech was interrupted as Ramon patted his shoulder.

" Patience Ustadz.., "said Ramon.

" Athaghfirullah aladzim. Thank you for being heard, sir..," said Ustadz Akbar while wiping his chest.

" The Same Ustadz. And for Mom, it's best to keep Mom's voice down. There are still a lot of people out there. I don't want my disgrace to be known to others...?" ramon asked while looking at Elvira's mother.

" Aib what, I have no disgrace. So I'm not afraid that people will hear what they shouldn't." said Elvira's mother.

" Are you sure...?" sela Rex is impatient.

" Confidently. What is it wrong with me as Elvira ?. I just can't give him affection because I'm busy working for a living. My status is not married, so no one is responsible for supporting me. Different from the Papi Elvira who immediately sought a companion after We divorced..," said Elvira's mother relaxed.

" What about the matchmaking you arranged for Elvira ?. Not that I'm marrying Elvira to a rich old man who deserves to be her father...?" rex told me to surprise the woman.

" I just want the best for my son...!" sahut Elvira's mom fast.

" But I don't know because Elvira refused his proposal, the man terrorized Elvira and sent a kind of witchcraft that made Elvira's life normal again...?" rex asked as he looked at Elvira's mother.

" Terror what do you mean...?" ask Elvira's mother.

" Mom's choice man has sent a kind of witchcraft so that Elvira is difficult to get a partner or mate. Unfortunately the creature in the witchcraft he sent turned around. Instead of fighting Elvira so that it is difficult to get a mate, he actually falls in love with Elvira and follows Elvira everywhere. Elvira was scared, she was stressed, until she finally couldn't hold on. He died after being tired of the terror sent by the man of his choice" Rex said.

" What...?!" elvira's mother was shocked.

Seeing the reaction of Elvira's mother made ustadz Akbar annoyed. He sneered at the expression of his former sister-in-law. Ramon and Rex stared at each other for a moment and nodded.

" Why do you look so shocked...?" rex asked as he watched the woman from head to toe.

" Mmm.., I.., I just didn't think that the handouts sent could make Elvira die..," said Elvira's mother afraid.

" I mean, I know that Elvira was adopted by that man...?! " ask Rex in disbelief.

" Plakkk..," a slap sound rang out loud.

Apparently Elvira's mother's answer made ustadz Akbar surprised. He got up from his seat and slapped Elvira's mother until she fell out of the chair. Ustadz Akbar's actions surprise Elvira's mother, Ramon and Rex.

" This is my first and last slap. I didn't think there was a demon-hearted mother like you. How could you allow even helping others to hurt Elvira. He's your son, your real son. As much as that do you like Elvira to the heart of hurting your own child...?!" ustadz Akbar was angry.

" I don't hate Elvira Mas. I love her and want the best for her, " said Elvira's mother began to cry.

" You who are greedy and maruk treasure where you may have sincere affection" said Ustadz Akbar while glaring.

" I'm sorry I'm Mas. Mas Akbar should be like me because I'm the sickest here. I was also tricked by the shaman Mas..," said Elvira's mother while trying to gather in front of Ustadz Akbar.

Ustadz Akbar seemed to shake his head while continuing to move away from the reach of Elvira's mother.

" Get out of my house now. Out...!" ustadz Akbar said loudly while pointing at the door of his house.

" I'm sorry Mas..," asked Elvira's mother as she rose from her position and walked out staggering.

Residents were silent to see Mother Elvira coming out of the house of Ustadz Akbar with tears. One of his cheeks was swollen from the slap of Ustadz Akbar. Accompanied by the gazes of the citizens, Elvira's mother stopped the passing Taxi and left the house without ever looking back.

" Iris very much the fate of Elvira..," said the residents to put aside each other.

" Basic bad woman..," maki some mother.

" Ssttt.., I don't need to talk about it anymore. Kasian Mbak Elvira and Ustadz Akbar. Better now we go to the kitchen to prepare treats later tonight." invite a woman who comes with a grocery bag.

" Yes Bu..," said the residents and disbanded from the terrace of the house of Ustadz Akbar.

Meanwhile, Ustadz Akbar appears to bow his head. Although he tried not to cry, but tears fell on his old face as well.

" Is Ustadz okay...?" ask Ramon carefully.

" Yes Sir. Insha Allah I am well. I just don't think that Elvira is a victim of her own mother's greed. I thought after staying with I Elvira would be happy, but it turns out I was wrong..," said Ustadz Akbar with a raucous voice.

" Elvira has gone to Ustadz. Shouldn't it be designed to calm down...?" ramon said, making ustadz Akbar smile.

" Mister Ramon is right. When I lost My Wife, I could still be strong. But losing Elvira makes me fragile and can't think clearly.

" I understand Ustad. The unnatural way of Elvira's departure is what makes Ustadz like this..," said Ramon sage.

" Thank you for Mr. Ramon, Mas Rex..," said Ustadz Akbar sincerely.

" Together Ustadz..," said Ramon and Rex.

" Now we have a mat for tahlilan later ya Ustadz..," said Rex to divert the conversation.

" Yes Mas..," said ustadz Akbar quickly while rising to his feet.

Then Rex, Ramon and Ustadz Akbar began to prepare the room for a prayer later tonight.
