Love Stories Overseas

Chapter 75

Finished eating a super large pizza one serving for three, until Dila and Fatma's stomach was full, as well as El who said his stomach was filled to the brim until it was difficult to move.

Initially Fatma wanted to invite the two of them to go to the mall or anywhere for refreshing, but the stomach was not full to support them for a walk. Eventually the goal changed, they went straight home to relax.

Fatma immediately walked to the side garden and sat in the gazebo, while Dila chose to lay down El who was asleep in the car when she came home earlier. Full stomach and cold AC car into the right blend makes El immediately sleep soundly.

" Didn't wake her El?", Fatma who was sitting in the gazebo moved because she saw there were withered orchid plants. " It's a pity that this must be lacking in care" murmured Fatma.

" El is still pules ma'am" said Dila." Dila did not take care of the flowers, sorry", continued Dila while tailing behind Fatma who was still looking at other plants.

" Luckily only one withered, this must be removed and replaced with new shoots, just calm down Dil, the mother was the master of caring for orchids, you see orchid plants in the mother's house, you see the orchid plants in the mother's house, so pretty".

Dila nodded in agreement, because indeed all the plants in her in-laws house were very fertile and beautiful.

Fatma sat back in the gazebo and placed the empty vase where the withered orchid was next to her. " Later fill the mother with new orchid plants, at home many more mother buds".

Dila nodded again, her mother-in-law was indeed a very good figure and rarely angry, never even once angry with Dila. It is different from the other grandmother El, Dila recalled the incident in the salon, two types of grandmothers who have a much different and opposite nature. Even the other techn /his mother Lita can not know her own grandson, unlike Bu Fatma who is so fond of El.

" Sir.", Dila wanted to ask about her mother Lita, but was afraid of offending her mother-in-law, so Dila undoes her intentions.

" Why?", Fatma turned her head and looked at Dila questioningly.

Dila finally decided to ask something else that did not make her mother-in-law offended.

" In fact Dila is still curious about the story of the mother of the time Dila was still a nanny El, at that time the mother had told me that the separation of Mas Indra and his first wife had something to do with the story of the mother's past, what story is it?, did you want to tell Dila?".

Dila tried to organize her sentences carefully so as not to mispronounce.

Fatma looked at Dila fixedly, "I think you've forgotten the story, because how many years ago I discussed it with you, it turns out you're a good listener", Fatma rubbed Dila's hair gently.

" The story was more than thirty-five years ago, when there was no Indra, even the mother was not married to her father Indra. At that time the mother was still in college, as well as Mas Rizal, who became a kating (brother level) mother of another faculty, Rizal used to be one generation with Mira his mother Keyla, Indra's ex-wife....".

Dila listened to the story of the mother-in-law silently without making a sound, trying to be a good listener, so that the mother-in-law felt comfortable when telling stories.

The flashback

" You said you were going to marry me, even without the blessing of our parents, but why...., why did you even agree to the matchmaking that your parents did?", Mira continued to follow behind Rizal who was walking home after college.

At that time Mira and Rizal were lovers who had been dating for quite a long time, they knew each other when they entered college, because they were one generation.

" So your promise to me all this time was just bullshit, do you know I really love you Zal, I'm even willing to leave my family to come with you", Mira still continues to follow not wanting to give up, even though on campus at that time a lot of students were staring at them.

But Rizal still remained silent not to serve the speech and protest that Mira was doing. Rizal does like Mira, but that was the beginning of their acquaintance, because Mira continues to pursue Rizal unyielding. Mira was the daughter of a successful merchant of her time, whose parents tried to export spices abroad.

Rizal had tried to apply for Mira to both parents, but Rizal, who was only a final-level student, and an ordinary farm boy, was immediately rejected outright by both parents, Mira, even Rizal got enough insults to hurt his heart as a man.

For Rizal women are not just one, and as a man his self-esteem is more important than anything.

Mira is so angry that Rizal remains married to Fatma, and during Rizal and Fatma's wedding, Mira is accidentally locked up by her parents in her room. Mira's plan to foil and disrupt Rizal's wedding failed miserably.

Nine months after Rizal married, Mira also married a rich man who was betrothed by Mira's parents, in the past arranged marriage became a natural thing among the children of respected people. Mira, who had no hope because she knew Rizal's wife was pregnant, finally received an arranged marriage arranged by her parents.

Mira was 3 months pregnant when Fatma gave birth to Indra, whether it was a scenario what God wrote, Rizal's son and Mira's child the same age, they went to high school and attended the same campus. And like a curse, their children fell in love with each other.

There are no problems in their relationship, until the moment they get acquainted with their partner's family, the hatred and resentment that had been buried back grew in Mira's heart.

Mira approves of her daughter's marriage to Rizal's son, but her goal is to hurt Rizal and his entire family.

When they are in a happy phase, precisely when Keyla gave birth to their first grandchild. Mira tells ART to be deliberately hired at her son's house to seduce her own son's husband, but unfortunately it does not work because her daughter-in-law named Indra really loves her daughter Kayla.

Until he made a trap to make ART his man pretend to slip when Indra was around, so that Indra was the one who helped ART. Shortly after the accident, ART was pregnant, and Indra was accused of impregnating her.

Flashback off

***

" The next story of course you've heard it, Dil, Kayla went home to her parents, where her mind continues to be washed and poisoned by her mother, Kayla, I can't see what's right and what's wrong. Actually, mom used to love Kayla, but Kayla was like a doll that was so obedient to her mommy".

" Even to the point of leaving his own flesh and blood that is still a baby, and even though he never came or asked the news of his biological son El, what kind of mother does not care about his own child".

Fatma, who has since told a story while staring blankly, now looks sad and emotional when remembering how Indra her son was so depressed when Kayla left him first.

" There was no news of Kayla, Indra was begging and came to her mother-in-law's house, because sorry for El who was still a baby, El desperately needed his mother, and she was very happy, but the answer from her in-laws said Kayla was already abroad, and had filed for divorce in court".

Indra was devastated, devastated, and so were her mother and father. What a cruel Mira, her revenge was a hundred percent.

" But the mother tried to find a way out, the mother who helped take care of El since infancy, because it was also recommended by Mas Rizal, when Indra was so unstable, to take care of himself he's not a dick".

" But as time went on Indra began to accept the situation, he was back to work and more workaholic to busy himself so as not to keep thinking about Kayla. And from then on Indra became a cold man to all women".

Fatma remembered that she had tried to introduce Indra several times with the daughter of her friends, but none of them managed to attract the attention of Indra. Of course Fatma did not tell Dila that, worried that Dila would be sad and not happy.

" But one night Indra called my mother and said that if she had made a fatal mistake against you, of course I was sad and disappointed with her actions, but at the same time I was happy, because it turns out that my mother's son is still normal, all thanks to you Dil".

Fatma grasped Dila's hand, "That's why I apologize, as well as say thank you, thanks to you, grandchildren and also the son of the mother can again be happy as now. I owe you a lot of money, Dil", Fatma's tears just dripped from her eyes.

" Mommy does not need to thank Dila, it is too excessive, because actually Dila did nothing, El and Mas Indra themselves are trying to be happy again" said Dila Menderemah.

" No Dil, they're like now since you've been in this house, I'm sure of that".

Fatma and Dila embrace each other.

Without the two women realize since some time ago Indra stood up and witnessed the novelty between his mother and wife that occurred in the garden beside the house.
