For the Sake of a Consecrated Word (You Ignore the Wife's Child)
Not An Angel
"So, Be careful Yesh. Maybe later or someday Dika will find you here. " Maya gave a warning to Yesha to be careful.
Degs...
Yesha's heart was pounding. She did not expect that her ex-husband would dare to look for her even though he already had his own wife. So did Abhi who listened to all of Yesha's conversations with her former brother-in-law.
"Yesh... Yesha... " Maya tried to awaken Yesha from her daydream.
"Ah, yes mbak. What's up again. "
"About, earlier. I borrow your money, or give me a job like you, Yesh. For the sake of my survival and Arum. Because we really had no money and no place to go.
Again Yesha looked at Jihan, but now Jihan was just shaking her shoulder.
"Maya mother what? from the grocery store keeper, guard the clothes shop or the diner waiter? "
"Whatever, Yesh. I will work well and will not discourage the business owner and you. "
"Cih, mbak Maya is apparently not know who mbak Yesha yes? " rich Jiihan sneered.
"Dam.... " Yesha shook her head to Jihan.
"The crime is very. Everyone here knows who Yesha is, but this person even considers mbak yesha as a servant. "
"Yesh, who the hell is he. "
"I'm Yesha's sister-in-law, why? "
"Jihan." call Yesha softly.
"You're married, Yesh" asked Maya in surprise. Because it turned out to be true about the rumors he heard.
"Yet. God willing, four more days. "
"What's with your lawyer? "
Again, Jihan and Yesha looked. But he nodded immediately.
"Thank God then. May you be happy with the man of your choice. "
"Tante Yesha, can Arum have a meal? Arum laper, from earlier has not eaten. "capped Arum.
Yesha turned to Arum. She saw the little girl holding her stomach. Then look towards Maya who is wrong.
"You two haven't eaten yet? "
Maya and Arum shook their heads together.
Then Yesha called bi Sumi, to prepare food for the two of them. Yesha is kind, but will not allow anyone to enter her house except those who have been close to her for a long time. Maya has known Yesha for a long time, but they're not that close. So, Yesha confines herself to Maya. Even though he knew Maya had changed.
"This is Yesha's mother. "bi Sumi gave two plates of rice with her side dishes to Yesha.
Then Yesha gave it to Maya and Arum.
"Eat first and we'll talk again. " Yesha then left the two of them, so as not to feel awkward while eating.
"Mr Yesha will give them work? " Task Jihan when they are inside the house.
"Come, Jihan. On the other hand I pity, but on the other hand, I am also a little annoyed. Because Maya used to insult me and weaken me even though not as bad as mother and Dila. Seeing her situation like this, I remembered the old me. But I was still very lucky. Get out of that family house, I already have the purpose of this house. " Said Yesha who remembered her past.
"Yes, if you remember the past, we have no end. If this is the case, it's up to Yesha. Whether the human spirit mbak Yesha who speaks or grudges the past ", said Jihan leave all decisions to Yesha.
"What is Yesha's mother, need to exchange ideas and ask for the opinion of Abhi mas? "
Yesha looked at Jihan. "No need for Jihan, let me decide for myself. "
"Alright, it's up to Yesha then. "
"Have you finished eating? "
"Already, aunt. Thank you, it's delicious" said Arum
"Thank you, Yesh, we have eaten."
"Where is Maya going? "
Maya shook her head. "I told you we don't have a destination. "
Yesha took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. It seems like his human soul has to move.
"I have a room at the boarding house, if I want to host a room at my place, the rent is seven hundred thousand every month. I can discount Maya and Arum to five hundred thousand every month" said Yesha who offered her boarding place.
"And for work, Maya can help at the grocery store. There's only one man to look after. Open the shop half-eight in the morning until five in the afternoon. But the pay is cheap, only a million per month. For the same grocery store, the dress shop is just that much. The evening mbak Maya if you want to take overtime, can help at the restaurant from 6 to 10 pm. The overtime is only 50k per person, we pay per day. " Yesha also offers work for Maya.
Hearing that, Maya's eyes sparkled happily. Whatever salary he must have received, especially for the boarding place he also got a hefty discount price. Yesha may have brought good luck to everyone.
"Mau, Yesh. I want as long as I can survive with Arum. Then can I meet the owner of the hostel and the owner of the shop. I want to thank him. " Maya said with enthusiasm.
Yesha and Jihan only breathed out to hear the stupidity of the person in front of her. Why did he not realize also that the owner of all the business was in front of him.
"Sir, Ma'am Maya does not realize what, who is the owner of the house and all the business? " ask Jihan with her anxiety.
Maya just shook her head not understanding.
"The owner of the hostel and all that work is the one who is in front of the current madam." said Jihan in the end, because Yesha did not want to confess either.
Maya is shocked to hear the words of Jihan.
"really? " call Maya can't believe it.
And just in Jihan's nod.
"All right, now I'm gonna show you Maya's hostel room. Come onl. " Yesha got up from her seat and went to her boarding house
Although only eight boarding rooms, but it is enough, to get income from there. Last month there was one person who came out of the boarding house, so Yesha offered the room to Maya.
In front of the post, Yesha meets Aryo and introduces her to Maya. If he was a security guard there, who would guard their boarding room as well as other Yesha businesses. After getting acquainted, Yesha then took the two of them to an empty boarding room.
"This is mbak, his room. Maya can swipe inside. Like what 'no. " said Yesha showed a room to Maya.
Maya then goes into her dormitory and looks around inside. There's a floor mattress, a closet and a fan. And a small kitchen table that has not been filled anything. The main thing is that there is a bathroom in the room.
"Alright Yesha. I'm taking these. But how do I pay for it? "
"Stay first mbak, later after payday you can pay. "
"Thank you, Yesh. You're so nice. "
"For his payment how about immediately cut the salary mbak. Because I don't give this place away for free. " Yesha said in the end. She also wanted to teach this former sister-in-law what it was like to live in deprivation.
"Ta. but. yesh, I don't have anything right now. How can Arum and I eat if only I can get a salary immediately deducted from the boarding money" said Maya who felt weak after hearing Yesha's words.
"This is mbak. I've given you a place to stay even if it's not free, and pay for it next month. It's because I feel sorry for you and Arum. Afraid you're stuck in the street. Now, if you want to be able to eat, you have to work dong. Starting tonight, you can take overtime at the diner. It could be a steward or dishwasher, anything can be done there, and tomorrow morning you can start work at my shop. That's all I can do for you right now. I'm not an angel-hearted man who wants to help someone who's been hurting me. " Yesha said with her chest closed.
"And remember this well mbak, we have no relationship anymore. Even the relationship. Because we're both divorced from those two fucking guys. So, Maya and I are just strangers here. Don't expect more from me. If you want to eat and get money, Maya must work to get it. Okay, "yesha emphasizes every word at the end of the sentence.
Maya just nodded. Because he knows, when he has no one to rely on. Yesha said, they have no relationship, they are only strangers now.It is fortunate that Yesha will help him and provide leniency for this boarding place.If not, yesha will help him, he and Arum are gonna be bums out there.
"I understand, Yesha. Thank you for helping me. " Maya could only look down saying all that.
"This is the key. And this is for Arum. " Yesha gave Mayaa the key to the boarding room with a piece of money hundreds of thousands. Then he went from there.
"Thank You Yesh. You are indeed kind. I've been willing to help you who hurt you before." Maya tears her eyes at Yesha's departure, and a piece of money that Yesha gave her.
