Destiny of the Village Girl

Lupa

Adam woke up in the morning, almost all night he could not sleep. At 3am, he fell asleep. His feelings were mixed up, he was very angry with the decision of Leony who chose to leave the house.

He went to take a shower, after taking a shower he was getting ready for work. Adam took his bag and the car keys and went downstairs. Suddenly his mother called him.

"Adam, before you go to breakfast first!" said his mother in a rather loud tone.

Adam kept walking towards the exit, "i'll have breakfast outside, mah," he said indifferently.

Adam went to work, he did not even focus on driving because only his wife was always in the shadows. When he arrived at the office, he worked as usual. He was sitting in his room, suddenly Rizka came to bring food.

"Mas, here I bring you some food" he said, putting some boxes on Adam's table.

"It just so happens that Rizka, I haven't had breakfast yet. Where did you buy this food?" adam opened the rice box that Rizka had brought.

"I bought at the famous food stall mas, there the cuisine is very good in my opinion. I bought a lot for me to distribute, I happen to be looking for your mama mas, so I brought you guys rice boxes."

"You are so good Rizka" said Adam as he began to eat.

"Don't be like that, there's still something better than me, your wife. He is good at everything" Rizka said, taking a rice box and having breakfast with Adam.

"Yes, Rizka you're right. You know, lately his intelligence increased by one more thing," said Adam while eating voraciously.

"Oh yeah? what is mas?" Rizka became curious about Adam's words.

"He's smart to get out of the house, you know?"

"Oh, no." Rizka frowned.

"I'm still a lot of work, it would be best if I don't think about it for now, I'm sure he's fine in his hometown."

"Yes, mas. A wife must obey her husband, but I think she is a good wife. He will definitely come home later, you don't have to bother picking him up. There's a big head later."

Adam was silent for a moment, "what you say is true as well yes, if I pick him up later he's even big head."

"Yes dong mas, you also have self-esteem. Masa, your self-esteem wants to be trampled by a wife anyway mas? if your employees know later you are embarrassed lo mas," said Rizka while continuing to eat her food.

"Yes, you're right Rizka."

This time, Rizka felt a 1-step win. It was as if he could get what he wanted. After finishing eating, Rizka continued to be in Adam's room. He said he wanted to accompany him to work occasionally. Adam felt happy and could forget his sadness for a moment.

On a clear day, Leony was excited to go to the fields. Early in the morning, he woke up and prepared his lunch. He went on his motorcycle matic. In the field there are already 3 farm workers who work their fields.

One was spraying insecticide all over the plant, another was picking cooked vegetables into a large promontory. And the other one pulled out the grass that grew around the plant.

By midday they all went home. However Leony continued going to the affluent griya marketing office. There he was warmly welcomed by all the construction workers who were taking a break at the Bude Sum stall.

"Ndok, when are you coming? how does bude not know?" asked Bude Sum who was very happy with Leony's arrival. It was like seeing the arrival of her son.

Leony sat down to take a chair, "i came yesterday bude, ma'af haven't had time to tell."

"You're so full of sweat, where's it going?" bude Sum continued to ask while making a glass of iced tea for Leony.

"Out of the bude field, it's not been there for a long time," Leony welcomed a glass of iced tea served by Bude Sum.

"Sir, long unseen," Suddenly Bian came to say hello. He looks fatter and blacker now.

"Bian, how are you?" ask Leony.

"Good, mbak. How are you doing yourself?"

"I'm good, by the way your wife is pregnant right? how many months pregnant?" Leony was so enthusiastic about asking about Fitri's pregnancy, Bian's wife.

"My wife is 6 months pregnant" she said with a bright smile, "Sir, how? have you filled it yet?" Bian asked back.

Leony is confused as to what to answer, he wants everyone to know about his pregnancy. However, her husband until now did not know about her pregnancy at all. It becomes a dilemma and a sadness.

"There's rice," Leony smiled wryly saying, "may your wife be healthy continue to be."

"Yes, amen. Thank you," Bian sat in the long chair beside Leony, he ordered a serving of rice to bude Sum.

Shortly after, Nurin arrived in front of the marketing office and entered with some documents. He looks very well dressed. Inside he handed over all the documents to Fira. Marketing offices are mostly in pairs of translucent glass making it look transparent from the outside.

Nurin and Fira were seen chatting seriously. Then Nurin walked out of the marketing office and headed for the bude Sum stall. In the stalls became very cramped because the workers porters building that filled it.

Nurin looked tired and ordered a serving of food with a glass of hot coffee. He looks like he is eating well. Sometimes he jokes with his peers and with those older than him.

The atmosphere there was very warm, Leony again compared to his life at home in-laws. He took a deep breath. It was as if he felt there was no place for someone like him. This is where his heart is always held.

If only her mother-in-law had been nice to her, then her husband could have been softer, he would have been more comfortable there. Half his heart he regretted his passing in a bad way. But half his heart again, he just wants to be in a comfortable place, and more importantly safe for the baby he contains.

He recalled the words his mother-in-law would abort his womb. His heart ached again, like it was sliced into pieces. I don't feel her eyes glazed.

Bude Sum realized, something had happened to Leony. Fortunately, he did not ask her about Adam just now. Bude Sum tried to get her to chat and entertain him. As if he didn't realize anything.

Leony is getting sadder, even until now Adam has no intention of calling him. Or just send him a chat message. Has he really been forgotten? he buried his feelings deeply. She wished she could say what she should have told her husband all along.
