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

Episode 52

Mas Yandri arrived home late in the afternoon. When he came, I just bathed Dre. After I put my clothes on, I went to the kitchen to get some cold water. "Directly eat, Mas?"

Mas Yandri shook his head and drank the water until it ran out. "You took a bath before Neng, Mas was still full, was to eat first on the road."

I nodded in agreement.

"Neng, why did Neng bring all the money left over from our savings? Mas shocked time on the way wriggling wallet, did Mas say the rest we divide the two make the handle Mas the same handle Neng here." Mas Yandri asked me after he took a shower. We were sitting on the couch watching Dre playing.

"Mas, Neng here also still holds the remaining sales money. After all, Neng thought, Mas needed more. Mas go far, such as Mas there is a sudden need in Jakarta and Mas money runs out, Mas want how? Neng here is safe, there is a mother, there are neighbors who can be asked for help," I said casually.

"So how?" kuanyakul curious.

Mas Yandri looked at me for a long time. "Alhamdulillah Neng, Mas accepted."

I immediately dropped my body on the floor and made a prostration of gratitude.

"Alhamdulillah, really Mas?" I looked at him after sitting on the sofa.

"Yes Neng, it turns out this company is a company that acquires the old Mas company due to bankruptcy. Some of the employees who were in phk were called back to join them. It turns out that they evaluate the results of Mas's work so far and offer a higher position. They will also be located at the headquarters. For a moment Neng," Mas Yandri picked up his backpack and took out some paper.

I was stunned to read the papers given by Mas Yandri.

"Neng did not expect Mas, could be rich gini."

Mas Yandri chuckled, "Don't Neng, Mas also didn't expect. This company is an outside company. And they need people who are competent in this field. Instead of trying to open job vacancies again for people who are not yet clear of their abilities, they prefer to call old people to return to work and occupy a decent position."

I went back to look at the details of the salary and facilities offered, as Mas Yandri said,

"Yes Neng, God gives better things, although at first I feel not fair, but God replaces it with something beautiful when it's time."

I wept, wept for all the good that God gave me. I feel inappropriate. I am used to worship. But God gave us the best things for our family.

"So, are we moving to Jakarta, Mas?" ask me with a loud voice.

"Yes Neng, starting from the 10th of next month, Mas has to enter. We should pack up from now on" Mas Yandri replied.

I nodded, "Yes Mas, Neng will start packing. So we stopped selling grilled chicken?"

"Yes Neng, we stop. Gotta get ready from now on, right? I'll tell mama about this. All of them also offer the equipment for selling grilled chicken. Can make a handle until later Mas payjian. I also want to sell motorcycles. Later Mas try to bargain to the fathers here, maybe there are interested," explained Mas Yandri at length.

"Alhamdulillah Bu Rere, so Mr Yandri already got a job? Thank God, I'm following his horror." Miss Rt said softly. I could see if his eyes started to condense.

"Yes ma'am, so I want to say to Mom, if we stop selling grilled chicken. Thank you for your help and helpful knowledge, ma'am," I hugged Bu rt.

"In addition, I also want to sell equipment sales. Maybe you know if someone needs it, tell me, Mom?"

"It just so happened that Mrs Rere. Miss Rere wants my family time there are those who come here nights, which time I pesen grilled chicken to mom?" ask rt ma'am.

I nodded, "Why Mom?"

"Well, my cousin was interested in going to the sale, because they knew that my parents also used to sell this grilled chicken. And coincidentally, she came here that night because she and her family moved to this city because her husband moved. I'll try to offer it to him later, hopefully this will be a good way out for Bu Rere and my cousin." Ms. Rt said at length.

"Aamiin," I said softly.

Truly, I am very grateful that until this moment God has made our way easier.

"Mother has also separated for Lita's tuition fees. The plan is after Lita graduates, we'll go back to Bandung, Re."

I looked at my mother in silence.

"Take it!" The mother-in-law took my hand and put down the money she had just held.

"Mother doesn't want to be rejected, doesn't want to be denied! You guys need this to hold onto Yandri's payday later."

I lowered my head, "Sorry Mom, we're always troublesome" I said softly.

"One more time talking rich that, Mother tap your mouth Re! I won't let you guys squirm! If you feel bad, wake up! Get up and get up! Show mom if you can go back to being independent! Don't keep feeling sad and bad! Mothers who will spend a lifetime if they can't do anything when you need help! Knows you!?"

I nodded, "Yes the queen's mother-in-law, Neng understands," I smiled at her.

I was in the car that was going to take me, Mas Yandri and Dre to the airport. Along the way, my memories go back to the time I first set foot on this Yellow Sassy Earth. In this town I found people I'd considered family. In this city I learned a valuable lesson to always be grateful even though I was in a position below. And in this town, I got Dre.

***

"Thank you so much, Mothers, you have received me and my family very well here. Already helped me selflessly, and already love me like family," I say goodbye to mothers at the Bu Indah stall.

Mrs Jejen and her gang and everyone present cried.

"Thank you so much for all the kindness. I cannot repay him with the same thing, may Allah repay the kindness of mothers all over again.

I'm sorry I was so wrong. Forgive all the offending words."

I wept among the good people that God had brought around me.

"Neng, send word often. I would miss Neng, let alone Dre." Bu Indah sobbed while hugging my son.

"If there is longevity and fortune, look at us here, Re" said Mrs Jejen.

"Don't be sad anymore. May the next healthy, blessing in a new place."

I nodded, kissed my hands and hugged each of the mothers present.

***

Some of my neighbors came in turns while I was packing my clothes. They brought us a hand. Their words were in a line of prayer I asked. I pray the same for them.

***

"Don't think Neng, we have to move out of this town." Mas Yandri opened his voice after a long moment of silence. It seemed like he was also twisting the memories of this city.

"Yes Mas. Never thought, we would move to this city and now we have to move from this city. The city has so many wonderful memories for Neng. Someday, I don't know when, if God allows, Neng will come back here again."

Mas Yandri nodded.

A call to enter the passenger lounge was heard. I stood with Dre following Mas Yandri. After checking the tickets and items, we waited for a while to be ready to enter the plane.

The plane slowly drove, initially slowly until then at full speed little by little airborne. I saw from the window that the longer the houses and highways were getting smaller until my position was parallel to the clouds.

'Thank you for the Sassy Yellow Earth, for all its precious experiences. I'll see you again someday, ' I said haru in my heart.
