POV Mama Maryam's.
Since my argument with Bi Tini at the dinner table the other day, I now prefer to lock myself in the room.
I deliberately avoided it, I did not want to be influenced by it, and regretted my decision to hate Mas Salim.
Many times Bi Tini knocked on the door of the room, inviting me to eat. However, I still ignored it, until Rayan realized my change and came to see me.
" Mah, I brought Mama's food and medicine. Mama eat, yeah, let Rayan bribe? " persuade my eldest son.
Rayan scooped the rice and gave it to me who was sitting on the mattress by leaning on the back of the mattress, I still flinch not to open my mouth one bit, because it feels like my appetite has been lost since yesterday.
And in times like these I miss my youngest, Idris, because he is the only one who is always beside me when I come back to remember my parting with mas Salim.
Idris will calm me down he will embrace me and encourage me, in contrast to Rayan treatment of me unlike Idris, he is too busy working he is also a closed figure until he becomes a cold person.
Rayan lowered the spoon filled with rice that she wanted to give me, then she put the spoon again to the pering.
" BI Tini said, if Idris comes home, yes, mah? " I nodded in response to her question.
I heard Rayan breathing. " Why don't you tell Idris to stay, if you want to? "
I looked at my eldest son. " He no longer belongs to Mama Rayan, now Idris belongs to his wife he prefers his wife than Mama. "
" Idris has a wife? " the frown of Rayan. " When did he get married? " I shook my head weakly.
" Take Idris home from Rayan! " My words later which made Rayan quiet for quite a long time.
" I'll work on it, Mah, "he said later.
And sure enough a few days after that Idris came home again, this time he came without his wife.
Idris knocked on the door, not immediately I asked him to come in, on purpose, I was listening just in case there was another sound, or he came with his wife.
I'm still disappointed in Idris. However, however, it remains my most beloved flower.
I let him in, we talked even a little bit about arguing, of course about his wife.
Finally I want to follow his advice to eat and take medicine. Also gave his wife a chance to stay in this house, but that doesn't mean I'm giving her a chance to be my son-in-law.
I just want to make it clear that he doesn't deserve to be with my son.
Just look at it later.
***
Gts ... Gts ... Geck...
I just told bi Syifa to buy the finished kitchen ingredients, to the market.
The sound of the door knocking, what was left thought me.
Then I approached the door and turned the doorknob.
" BI Arum! " i was surprised to find out after I found out who was the one who knocked on the door, I didn't expect that Bi Arum would visit.
" How are you, Za? " the sweep was a little taut and then Bi Arum smiled, a smile that was seen forced.
" Okay, Bi. " I smiled and responded to him.
" Oh, yeah, please go in Bi! " I let him in. BI Arum also followed my steps into the house, while sitting in the living room chair.
" What to make you drink, Bi? " Remain to Bi Arum.
" It's up to you, "the answer is still in the same tone, a little tart.
I also went from Bi Arum to the kitchen, making warm tea for him. Also I took some snacks for me to treat Bi Arum.
After putting warm tea and snacks on the table I also sat on the chair.
Bi Arum drank my tea.
" Where is your husband? " Sanya while putting a glass filled with tea.
I haven't been honest with Bi Arum about Idris' work, nor have I asked Idris about telling Bi Arum about his work.
" work, Bi. "
" Where's the job? " I was silent for a while, confused to be honest or not.
If I'm honest, that's good for Idris. I don't know. I still remember what Nene said about the company that was not okay also about the reason for my match with Surya first.
" I forgot, Bi, Mas Idris' workplace name. " I'm lying.
" Sofia's not coming with Bi? " i'm turning the question so that bi Arum no longer asks about Idris' work.
" sofi is busy with her school. "
"heeh. Oh, well, Bi, I have some good news! " my words are full of twinkle.
" I'm pregnant right now, Bi, "I said, hoping that bi Arum would respond well.
However, he only had, oh, ria while drinking back the warm tea I made.
Unlike the response of Bi Syifa when she knew I was pregnant, she was very enthusiastic she also explained various things about the habits of pregnant people, as well as things that should not be done pregnant people, she said, even bi Syifa takes care of my food.
He said pregnant people should eat this is what they eat, and can't eat this. He gave me a lot of advice.
Though bi Syifa is only my neighbor, he is not a brother nor is he family, but his attitude is much warmer than my own family.
Didn't anyone say that blood is thicker than water.
And isn't it me and Bi Arum that are family. But why do we feel like we are nobody.
I saw Bi Arum seem to think, then he put the tea he just drank on the table.
" You pregnant? " ask.
Could it be that Bi Arum is thinking of paying more attention to me now.
I nodded in response to his answer.
" Good, then, it's certain that your husband will be responsible for you and your baby, right? "
What does Bi Arum mean, he feels like he is planning something.
" Yes, it must be Bi, "I replied.
" Ok, then I won't have to take you in, if he'll take full responsibility for you. "
I scrunched my eyebrows, not understanding what Bi Arum said. " I mean aunt? "
He leaned his body against the chair and then spread his gaze all over the house, then sat back straight and looked at me closely.
" Aunty found someone who wanted to buy this house. "
I gaped in disbelief if Bi Arum really wanted to sell this house.
" Aunty wants to sell this house? ". I asked, who was answered nodding by BI Arum.
" But this house is Nene's house, our house of memories bi, aunt forgot here aunt was born and grew up. No bi, don't sell this house, Za disagrees. "
" Want you agree or not, aunt will still sell this house! "
Bi Arum got up from the chair he went into my room to tear apart the contents of the closet.
" BI! BI! what's aunt looking for?"
" Don't pretend to bego Za, tell auntie where grandma keeps this ruamah certificate? "
" Athaghfirullah, Bi! "
" Say, where is Za?! " but Bi Arum.
I'm fucked. " Za, really don't know, Bi. "I follow wherever Bi Arum steps.
He paced into Nene's room as well as mine, breaking into Abrik all the places he thought had the potential to hold the certificate.
" Bi!, already bi! " My screams are not heard by him. While Bi Arum increasingly brutal ransacking rooms.
Now he turned to the middle room there is a sideboard where on the right side of his left there is a locked drawer.
BI Arum stared at the drawer and looked at me sharply. " Where's the key? " he said as he offered a hand asking for what he wanted.
" i-i. "
" Or want auntie busted!" threaten her.
I don't know if there's a certificate or not in it.
Thank goodness there are none. But what if there is?
I handed over the little thing my aunt asked for. He received it roughly and then began to turn the key that had been attached to the keyhole.
Thank God in the first drawer there wasn't any file there. BI Arum again did the same thing in the second drawer, and it looks there are various files, Bi Arum started looking for certificates, he ruffled the contents of the drawer.
And ... He found what he was looking for. I was silent, not moving behind him.
BI Arum stood while carrying the precious paper. " Hurry out of this house! " he said as he left me and got out of the house.
" BI! Arum BI! just wait! " I'm trying to chase him.
Next....
