Marrying a Woman of Mother's Choice

Tenri's Concerns

Since arriving in Jakarta, to this day Tenri has been accustomed to being left alone at home by Reno. Slowly but surely he no longer felt lonely, he busied himself with many things. Some of them try new recipes. Coincidentally yesterday he had time to shop at the supermarket and Reno did not know about it at all.

Like today, Tenri was working in the kitchen to make Coto Makassar. He wants to make Reno like Coto, which is often made by Reno's mother. Very busy Tenri in the kitchen, he was very serious in processing every ingredient. The first time he made it taste not good, still excess spices and others.

Until the Maghrib congregated, Tenri finally finished with the busy cooking he did alone. He wants to surprise Reno, after work must be tired and hungry. So served food from Makassar, Reno might like.

"Fiuuhh .. is finally done as well." Tenri clapped her hands and immediately washed them in the sink.

He is satisfied with the results of his cooking today, although he should make ketupat as well but because there are no young coconut leaves, so he just makes coconut palm.

"Now just waiting for Daeng to come home, may he like my cooking."

All the food he had cooked was arranged in such a way on the dining table. He also waited because usually at 6 Reno has gone home.

Maybe because of exhaustion all day trying to make the best menu for her husband, Tenri was unable to resist the fatigue and sleepiness that suddenly attacked her. Tenri fell asleep on the table with both arms to refute his face.

Reno doesn't know where she is, she doesn't even tell Tenri that she's coming home soon. Tenri waits to fall asleep, while Reno is seen in one of the bars drinking alcohol.

Doni who had contacted Reno several times but was not appointed, became worried and immediately looked for the boss. Doni assumes about Reno's messy condition because of a lot of thoughts, he did not wrongly predict where Reno is.

Arriving at the bar, Doni had found Reno in a staggering state about to walk out of the bar.

"Jeez, Reno. Why is it like this?" said Doni who immediately caught Reno's body that almost fell. The way of the road has been staggered like leaves blown by the wind. It was fortunate that Reno's body was quickly captured by Doni, otherwise the man might have been lying on the floor.

"Nga .. pain ... You are here .. huh?" reno replied with a less clear speech. He's been drunk once.

Without saying another word, Doni immediately took Reno away. Doni plugged his car's accelerator into Reno's house when he managed to get the boss in the car. Reno sleeps on her stomach in the back seat.The position is no longer clear.

Arriving at Reno's house, Doni immediately opens the door because he finds the door unlocked.

"Teledor once, why was the door left unlocked like this?" doni's tirade was of course actually aimed at Tenri, because it could have been someone else barging into the house if left unlocked like that.

Hearing the sound of the door opening and the sound of people coming, Tenri was awakened from his sleep. He was still sitting at the dining table, he was shocked to see the clock as it had already shown twelve o'clock at night.

"Daeng ..., is that you?" ask Tenri slowly.

There was no answer, but the bodies of the two were already visible before Tenri's eyes.

"God ... daeng! Daeng ... What's wrong with her?" tenri asked worried because Reno was brought home drunk like that.

Tenri nodded and then helped Doni to have her husband climb up to the second floor to their room.

"He stinks of alcohol, is he drunk?" tanya Tenri plain.

"Looks like. You shouldn't have waited for him to fall asleep at the dinner table like that."

"It's okay, I'm just doing my job as a wife. What time is it? Thank you for bringing my husband home."

"Either. Just let him sleep like that, don't wake him up. You should also rest. I'll go home first, yeah."

"Thank you, Sir. Uh sorry, whose name are you?"

"Doni. I'm Mr. Reno's personal assistant."

"Oh. Thanks again."

Doni is not in the end of thinking about Reno's behavior lately. "The wife is beautiful, smart and painstaking and left alone at home. Should have taken his wife shopping, honeymoon vacation. It's even an obscure hangover."

Doni shook his head and got into his car and went home.

***

Tenri looked at the sleeping Reno with his prone position and his snoring heard. There was an inner upheaval in Tenri's heart, he blamed himself for this incident and Reno's current condition. She felt that her husband was like that because Reno actually did not want to marry her.

"Daeng, if it's because of our marriage. You should just talk to me, that daeng disagrees. At least I know who I'm in this house." Tenri spoke to Reno who was sleeping.

"I know, maybe you've even had a relationship with another woman. Just because you want to respect our parents and also want to be filial that's why you want to marry me, right? But this is not the way, daeng. You should be talking instead of running into a drink like this."

Tenri removed the small round that had not realized it had flowed on both cheeks. For a few days she was agitated, thinking about her marriage, thinking about her husband who had never touched her.

Tenri pulled out a blanket and covered her husband's body. She also took a sleeping position next to her husband. Not wearing a blanket and lying on her back to her husband.

Once again, he could only wipe away his tears and hope that this night would soon pass.

"I have to be strong, I have to be able to be happy, it was created not awaited. I must be able to win the heart of Daeng, however I will never give up. In the Makassar tribe divorce should not happen, it's embarrassing and heartbreaking."

Tenri tried to strengthen himself. While trying to make his eyes immediately want closed.
