Christina's Retaliation

The Arrival of Elsa

Days passed so quickly, Willdan and Mamah Elsa had been living in a rented house for a month.

"You haven't worked for a month, so it's better to look for a job. Our savings are running low" Mamah Elsa stared cynically at Willdan.

"Willdan is also another endeavor, mah. But today's job search is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand," replied Willdan ketus.

"Yes, we go to Om Melvin's house. Who knows if he can help, change clothes. Mom is waiting for you in front of the contract," Mamah Elsa got up and stepped into the rented yard.

Willdan changed his clothes, even though he refused to go to Om Melvin's house.

Momah Elsa and Willdan arrive at Om Melvin's house.

"Auntie, Mas Willdan. Why are you here?" sherlyn asked, staring at Willdan and Mamah Elsa.

"Son, how come you're sniffing with us? not as usual, instead you will be a aunt's daughter-in-law" said Mamah Elsa.

"That was, aunt. But now I do not want to be a part of you, who are already poor and have nothing left. There I can be miserable," Sherlyn glanced cynically as she passed by.

"Well, we better go home. Mamah look, right? Sherlyn's just acting like that no more Om Melvin, I don't want to be embarrassed anymore." Willdan will step away from Om Melvin's house.

But Mamah Elsa blocked his arm.

"Wait a minute, we haven't tried. Don't be pessimistic, Sherlyn's not necessarily Melvin's like that." Mamah Elsa held Willdan to leave.

Willdan finally obeyed the will of Mamah Elsa. They walked into Om Melvin's house and met him.

"What's up here, ma'am?" ask Melvin to investigate.

"Melvin, we'd like to ask you a favor. Willdan's been looking for a job for a month, but he didn't even get one. There's a vacancy in your office, right, Melvin?" Mamah Elsa looked at Melvin wistfully.

"Sorry, madam. Incidentally in my office is full of employees, no longer need employees," said Melvin.

"Don't be like that, Melvin. Sherlyn will soon be married to Willdan. So what's wrong, you help him," again Mamah Elsa persuaded Melvin.

"Don't be smart, ma'am. Sherlyn told me she doesn't care about Willdan anymore. Anyway, what Sherlyn said is true, if my son decides to stay with Willdan, his life will be miserable. Want to put where my face is, if all my clients know my son is married to an unemployed man," Ejek Melvin smiled sarcastically at Willdan and Mamah Elsa.

"Melvin, how could you speak like that to us," slowly Mamah Elsa's eyes poked a clear circle.

"I'm talking facts, ma'am. So don't be offended like that" Melvin chuckled.

"Well, we better go home." Willdan got up from his seat, while inviting Mamah Elsa to rise from her seat.

They left Melvin's house feeling humiliated and ashamed.

"You're stubborn, just try to hear what I said! we are not insulted like this! I'm ashamed to know, mah!" Willdan snorted in annoyance.

"I'm sorry, son. Think mama, Om Melvin will help you." Mamah Elsa bowed listlessly.

Willdan just kept quiet, just kept walking towards the contract while ruffling his hair.

While Mamah Elsa, walking while thinking about how Willdan can work again.

"The only way I have to be smart is to seduce Kristin. Tomorrow morning I'm going to his office, to ask Kristin for help," said Mamah Elsa, smiling.

"I will also persuade him, that he will reconcile with Willdan, "his mind returns.

*********

"Well, where are you going?" Willdan glanced probing.

"You go to Kristin's office, you come along." Mamah Elsa gave her advice.

"No, mah. I'm ashamed to meet Kristin in this condition, "Willdan turned his gaze somewhere.

"Yes, let me go there myself. May your efforts succeed this time," Mamah Elsa passed away.

In just a few minutes, Mamah Elsa had reached Kristin's office. Even with confidence he would enter Kristin's office, but was held back by security.

"Sorry, Madam. Have you previously tied the knot with Miss Kristin?" tanya security's blocking Mamah Elsa's move.

"Let go, I haven't made an appointment with Kristin. You need to know, I am her former mother-in-law but soon will be her mother-in-law again. So don't treat me with this kind of disrespect" Mamah Elsa brushed off the security check.

"Sorry, Madam. Miss Kristin's schedule is crowded, if you don't have an appointment before you can't see our boss," said security grunt in annoyance.

But Mamah Elsa continued to force to enter the office, until finally security called Kristina and told her that in the office there was her ex-in-law.

After getting approval from Kristina, security did not hold Mamah Elsa back.

"Tok tok." Mamah Elsa knocks on Kristina's office door.

"Come in." Kristina replied from the inside.

Mamah Elsa quickly entered and sat right in front of Kristina.

"Son, you want to ask for your help" Mamah Elsa rubbed Kristina's arm.

"Tell me, auntie." Kristina replied briefly.

"Son, I want you to go back to Willdan. At least think about Mila's future, time should grow without a papah," Mamah Elsa looked down at Kristina.

"Sorry, aunt. For me it's not in my dictionary to go back to an ex who has hurt. Aunty also does not need to worry about the growth and development of Mila, as time goes on, surely Mila can understand about what I decided this" said Kristina at length.

"Anything you don't love, Willdan?" ask Mamah Elsa to investigate.

"My love is gone along with all the betrayal that Mas Willdan has done" Kristina said.

"Sorry, aunt. Soon I will have a deadline, if there is nothing else to say, please leave my room aunty" said Kristina while grunting annoyed.

"It's so arrogant of you, Kristin. Just a little success was already like this, remember the spinning wheel. It could be that one day you live a life of destitution, hardship, nothing." Mamah Elsa got up while berating Kristina.

Kristina did not reply to her former in-laws, just stared intently at herself while shaking her head and sighing deeply.

Mamah Elsa has forgotten what she came to Kristin's office for. He only realized when he was in the office yard.

"Why did I not express my heart's intention to meet Kristin, I said something else. Foolish of me, there's no way I'm going back in and seeing Kristin for help after I berate her for making a mockery." Gerrutu Mamah Elsa while kneading her own temple.
