The day passed by so quickly without realizing it. Salma was getting used to the cruel words from her mother-in-law's mouth. Although his heart still often hurts because it is unable to accept his cruel treatment, but not as sick as the first time Salma moved to Burhan's parents' house.
After moving to Burhan's family home, Salma had never felt happy after marriage because of pressure from her mother-in-law who made her always cry. But Salma could only survive for the sake of her husband whom she loved so much. Because she knew that her husband was a good person who also loved her very much and would never leave her alone.
After a long wait, finally what awaited has arrived. Salma was pregnant with their first child. Burhan and Salma were very happy to know that she was pregnant.
"Darling, I'm pregnant." Salma's remarks showed the results of a pregnancy test.
"What's? You pregnant?" Burhan asked in surprise.
Salma replied with a nod. Burhan, who noticed that Salma was not joking that morning, was very happy and smiled widely. Burhan immediately hugged his wife with great affection.
Burhan and Salma leave the room for breakfast, as Burhan has to get to work soon.
"Pa, Ma, Salma's pregnant." Burhan said with a big smile.
"really?" Ask Burhan's dad happy.
Burhan nodded. Knowing Burhan's father was happy, Burhan's mother glanced sharply at her husband. Burhan's father was instantly silent.
"What's? Getting pregnant? Did ya? Not just a show?" Accuse Burhan's mother.
"No Ma. Salma is really pregnant." Answer Burhan.
"Thank God it was that." Burhan's mother was not so happy.
Although Burhan's mother did not feel happy with Salma, however Salma was currently conceived was her grandson. So he doesn't want to if anything happens with Salma. Burhan's mother always reminded Salma to take care of her fetus even with words that are not pleasant to hear as usual.
"You have to take care of the baby. I don't like you, but whatever you're carrying is Burhan's son and that means he's my grandson. If anything happens to him it's all your fault." Said Burhan's Mother.
"Good Ma." Reply Salma.
Then Burhan's mother left Salma alone. Unknowingly his tears dripped on his cheeks.
"Why are you Salma?" Burhan's father's voice from behind asked Salma.
Salma wiped her tears and held her back from coming out again.
"Ehm? I'm okay, Pa." Salma tried to smile.
But Salma's facial expression did not indicate that she was okay.
"Because Mama said again?" Ask Burhan's father.
Salma only smiled, not daring to answer.
"He is like that. He doesn't realize that you are a good person. Yes, you just rest in the room." Said his father-in-law.
Due to too much thought and pressure, Salma often felt pain and cramping in her stomach. And when he was in pain, he could only feel the pain himself and not dare to tell Burhan let alone his mother. His mother would definitely be very angry and blame him endlessly. Does not reduce the pain, it will actually make it more depressed.
Salma chose to check it out for herself. Message from the kandunga doctor, Salma should not be too stressed and depressed.
"How can I not be stressed and depressed if every day I hear the word katra from Mama. If I had chosen to move house, Burhan's mother wouldn't have agreed. I don't have a good reason to move. If the reason was because I was too stressed to hear the harsh word Mama said every day, it would only make her even more angry. And Burhan will be angry with his mother. I can't make Mom and son fight. What am I supposed to do?" Salma said in the heart.
Salma doesn't know what to do. And she couldn't possibly discuss it with her husband. All he has is in his own heart.
Since learning that Salma is pregnant, Burhan is more affectionate and attentive to Salma. Only if Burhan is home will Salma feel calm and not depressed. Because Burhan's always his furniture every time his mother rebelled.
Burhan's father did not dare to fight him, especially Salma who was only a son-in-law. Burhan's father actually wanted to defend Salma whenever his wife treated Salma badly, but it was useless.
