"The Ning, even if he is poor but he is patient and obedient to the husband," said Mother.
Hadeuuh .. muji ko nanggung! It's not my name if I can praise with all my heart.
"Man, Rishman! If you still like to be nice, I'll marry you to Si Ohah!"
"What the hell, Mother ...," Bang Risman scowled. I was astonished to see Bang Risman's expression suddenly pale and looked frightened.
"Who is that, Mom? I asked, not strong enough to hold the curiosity.
"Crazy people who like to chase Risman every time they go home from school first, while saying, I love you my darling ...," said Mother.
All of us laughed, except for Bang Risman.
"Sin, Risman is Mom's responsibility. Don't feel alone, Mother is on your side. If he's a macem again, say it to Mom!" Mom grabbed Sintia's shoulder and Sintia leaned back spoiled. 'Oh, lebay!' my inner.
Sintia is indeed a special daughter-in-law, she is closest to Mother, because said Bang Rafi, Sintia who bank officials have helped Mother a lot in developing business. Sintia also often gives luxury gifts to Mom, which of course I can not give.
Sintia was not as hysterical as earlier, Bang Risman still with a look of persecution, he felt despondent because almost everyone was more defending Sintia.
"I promise I won't macem anymore if you are Mih, promise me the same."
"What?" Sintia answered fiercely.
"If Papih wants to go to work or go home, you have to kiss his hands! don't forget about rich ducks."
Sintia's face was red. Maybe he was embarrassed and just realized his mistake so far that made Bang Risman look for another woman. A woman who can make her feel valued as a man.
It turned out to be as simple as Bang Risman's request. Bang Rafi and I looked at each other and threw smiles.
That is the importance of communication in the home. I once read a story called fifty years of misunderstanding.
About a husband and wife who always celebrate their wedding anniversary. Every year the wife serves their family's favorite fish and gives the tail to the husband. The husband gave his wife a head.
On their fiftieth wedding anniversary, the wife cried when the husband gave her a fish head. "Do you know, I don't like to eat fish heads" said the wife sobbing.
The surprised husband is not a bitch. "I really like fish heads, fish heads describe leadership. But, since I thought you liked it so much, I gave you the part I liked the most" she wrote.
The wife was no less surprised. "I am also my husband. I really like the tail of the fish but thinking you like it so much, I always give it to you."
The two laughed at each other, laughing at their misunderstandings for fifty years. And in that year, for the first time they ate according to what they liked.
Maybe so is the case with the Bang Risman and Sintia families. Simple things that are not revealed actually foster deep resentment to the point of looking for each other's pleasure outside to hurt each other.
I walked away from the negotiations on the grounds of Marisa, but actually felt no longer necessary to listen to the problems of their families who had now found a bright spot. Hopefully after this their family will be more harmonious and happy.
I'm kadi kangen Mamah. Mamah always said, "If there's no place in the world that makes you comfortable, go home. No matter what your life is, you always have a place to come back."
The age of Bang Risman and Sintia also turned out to need parents, need a family to solve his family problems are so simple. We just need to talk to each other with our hearts.
When the sky was orange, Bang Risman and Sintia came home. They will return to their routine. This time they walked more affectionately, the two joined hands and threw a friendly glance. Sincere, without imaging.
The house is back empty. Since Maghrib Mother did not leave the room. Maybe he's too tired or wants to hide. I caught the pain in her eyes, Which mother wants to be away from her children? Especially now that I have no partner, no place to share.
"Bus ... Dinner first." I called Mom from behind the door. I wish I'd have dinner like I had Ratih. But, Mother did not answer my call.
I remember Ratih. How is he doing now?
After everyone fell asleep I played Kak Lisna's mobile phone and copied the important numbers from HP Bang Rafi.
One social media account has been created, sister Lisna, I started sending friend requests to people I know. How happy my heart was when I found my old school friends. Most of my high school friends are still in college, only a few are married like me.
Another with friends during Elementary School, those who used to not continue school even already have children of Kindergarten age.
The pleasure in the virtual world made me not interested in sleeping, until Bang Rafi pulled my body and buried it in the arms. I gave up, chose a more real pleasure.

"This brings it inside" Mother asked.
Tumben, that day Mother brought the things she had just bought into the house. Usually I'll take her to the stall.
"His kiosk is being tidied up Susi. She told me to sort out the old stock to separate. Pity if it has not been settled yet plus new items," said Mother as if to read my heart.
Various models of clothing fill almost half the room. Mother used to buy parties to get cheaper prices. But there are also exclusive clothes with one model of one item, usually for clothes with a price of one million.
I gawked as Mom undressed. The game with a simple model but looks very luxurious.
"This is what is commonly used by artists," said Mother.
"How much is that, Mom?"
"Equivalent to Rafi's salary of one month."
My eyes are getting wider. My misqueen soul thrashed. Then an idea flashed through his head.
"Mom, Ning can you help me?"
"Where do you want to sell it?"
"Onlinei! Later Ning photos of her clothes continued Ning promotion to the management. Real pict buyers are usually more interested.
"Whatever, as long as nothing is broken!" mother's toilet. I'm getting excited, especially when Mom tells me that the sale of clothes is fortunately big, for large traders like Mom, when selling retail, fortunately it can be up to a hundred percent.
The clothes can be expensive due to the distribution process that passes through many hands. If we can cut that path we can get a much cheaper price.
From today, I want to learn.
