Husband, If Your Father Is On Your Mother, Your Sins Are On Me

Episode 30's

Time goes on until unknowingly the day has passed, the month has passed, and the year has changed. Without feeling it, I have lived in this city for more than three years. The city was originally foreign but in fact gave many lessons and memories. About new people, about life's struggles, and about learning for yourself.

***

The house bought by Mas Yandri is now occupied by my in-laws and Lita. It turned out that the mother-in-law had not been able to recover one hundred percent after Ana died. The house where he lived all this time actually gave a lot of painful memories. To recuperate, the mother follows Mas Yandri's advice to move to the Yellow Lancang Earth.

"Assalamualaikum! The re! Rere open the door!"

The mother-in-law's voice sounded right at the time leading up to Isya, after I warmed up the food for Mas Yandri. Mas Yandri himself is not usually not home from the office at this hour.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Sorry mom, Neng was in the kitchen." I opened the door wide. After mom sat down, I rushed back to the kitchen to make tea. Dre had already slept after being tired of playing all day.

"Where's Yandri?!" Mother-in-law's voice sounded sniffling.

"Mas Yandri hasn't come home yet, but his car doesn't exist. Neng was also surprised, not usually until this hour has not returned home. Mother why? It's a lot of sprains" replied I, who had been sitting on the sofa in front of my mother.

"Do a lot of it! I want to talk to Yandri!"

"Yes, yes, ma'am. Relax, Mas Yandri may be on the road again," I grinned.

Live long! The sound of Mas Yandri's car was heard stopping in front of the house. Not long after, his car was seen entering the carport. Mother-in-law was already standing with a very upset face. It was obvious in my eyes that he was very angry with his son.

"Mom, sit down first or ma'am. Calm down, calm down. If you want to be angry with Mas Yandri, wait for him to finish eating first."

I opened my voice to see my mother's strange behavior. Not without reason I asked my in-laws to wait. First, if it is true that mother wants to scold Mas Yandri, my husband must be full. Second, by waiting, I hope my mother-in-law's emotions will decrease. Yes, even though I'm not sure myself.

I brought a glass of cold water to Mas Yandri right after he greeted mother. After that I told him to clean up, pray and eat right away. The mother-in-law who refused to eat stayed seated on the living room sofa.

"Mas, I'm waiting for Mas. From nyariin loh." I said to my husband who had just finished his meal.

With a nod he stood up and approached the mother.

"Rere, you're here too!"

I who intended to take care of the rest of the dinner also stepped closer to mother.

"Sit down" he ordered

"What's wrong mom? How rich are you, again?" Yandri asked.

Mom took a long breath over and over again

"So afternoon when I want to buy soto, I squirm your car out of the parking lot where soto!"

"Looky mother Yandri? Why not call?" ask Mas Yandri.

"That's not the point, Yandri! I'm squirming you're both the same woman in the car!" mother-in-law snarled

"Oh that, that's Siska, ma'am. Admin Yandri in the office. Neng also knows the person," said Mas Yandri relaxed.

I just watched the mother and daughter talk without interrupting. I'll see where this conversation is going.

"Yandri was already going home when Siska, asked to come with the bell. Yes because it is unidirectional, Yandri yesin aja. Passing in front of the soto stall, Siska asked to stop by for a while to buy," explained Mas Yandri

"Macem-macem you Yandri! How dare you both be the same person who is not a mahram! What if there is a slander? Huh uh?!" My mother-in-law is angry.

"Mom, Yandri did not mind, just nganter Siska went home and stopped by to buy soto. It was also Yandri did not come down kok Bu," Mas Yandri wavegapan.

Mom looked at him sharply.

"You want to argue with you?! Have you ever heard that a boy forever belongs to his mother?"

Mas Yandri nodded slowly.

"That means that as long as you are alive, you are still obliged to remind, advise, rebuke and educate you! Because you belong to Mom forever! Because of that sentence too, one day you will be held accountable if you cannot teach you the right thing! You belong to Mom forever!

And I don't like you bringing other women with you even if you say you don't do anything! Slander is evil, Yandri! Demons are everywhere to get people lost! Don't throw danger! You're not good to refuse but you're approaching sin! Once again this is repeated, I'm not reluctant to teach you, understand!?" My mother-in-law kicked the table until I jumped.

"Yes ma'am sorry, Yandri didn't think to be there. Because there is nothing, Yandri thought it was no problem to go home, Siska said Mas Yandri while glancing at me.

"Review ye yes, dare macem-macem! This is the first and last time I know. Keep your boundaries! You should know what you can do and what you can't do!

If you ignore it just because it is not pleasing to refuse the request of others, let alone women, your status as a husband must be questioned! Don't embarrass me as if I didn't educate you properly!"

My mother's face was completely red. This time he was really angry.

***

"Neng, aren't you angry?" ask Mas Yandri after mom gets home.

"Yes how, want to be angry also already represented by mother," I grinned.

"Sorry Neng, Mas does not mean macem-macem. Admit it, Khilaf. Mas shouldn't have to make a gap to be alone with other women for whatever reason."

I smiled at him.

"Hopefully this incident will be a reminder for the future. Be careful in acting. Don't let this happen again. Dre is now getting bigger, we are married is also not a matter of months anymore. If something like this happens again, Neng definitelyin, Neng who will intervene directly to make a lesson for Mas."
