Marrying an Abuser's Ex-Husband

MMSP2ND. Chapters. 45

Devi walked towards where the shadow disappeared from. In the morning around half six o'clock it still looks dark because of the tall trees around the Aris house complex.

"Who is that?! Get outside! Don't think you can scare a woman! Make no mistake, I'm not afraid of anyone!!" exclaims Devi challenging the person in hiding.

Not long after, Tia's car came into the parking lot of Aris' house.

"Assalamu 'alaikum, '" said Tia while knocking on the door of the sister's house.

"Mister Tia?"

"Astaghfirullah ...! Devi! You just surprised me!" Tia was surprised as Devi called out to her from behind.

"Sorry, Ma'am. There was something suspicious up ahead, so Devi tried to see who it was. And after Devi saw that there was no one," replied Devi, looking back at the shadow.

"really? You better pay the security guards to guard at the gate." Tia came looking in the direction where Devi was pointing. However, Tia also found nothing.

"Yes, Mother. Devi saw Devi trying to chase after her but there was no one" said Devi, shrugging her shoulders.

"Maybe you saw it wrong, but to be safe you told Aris to pay the security guard for the gate. Look at me, the gate was not closed. Later if there is a security guard who opens and closes the gate," said Tia gave advice to her sister-in-law.

"Devi can take care of himself, Ma'am. Devi is not afraid to fight criminals though. In addition, it can also be economical not to pay the salary of the guard," said Devi showing off, he felt sorry if he had to spend money to pay the security guard.

Tia shook her head, there was a slight annoyance at her sister-in-law who she thought was somewhat calculating about money.

"Devi wasn't what he meant, Ma'am. If you leave Aris, you'll feel safe if there's a security guard. Even if you are good at martial arts, when compared to the strength of a man, a woman still loses. Salary problems, let me take care of it later. Let the office pay the security guard's salary," said Tia who did not expect if the sister-in-law was too calculated in terms of finances.

"Then be well, Ma'am. I agree, later I tell mas Aris only," said Devi with a smile sumringah. Imagining himself not spending anything but can security guards who will keep his home safe.

Tia took a long breath. Understand that nothing is perfect. One side is beautiful and friendly also good at taking care of themselves. But on the other hand, calculations in financial terms. That is the nature of man, no one is perfect.

"Alright, later I will also tell Hans to agree to Aris' request" Tia said with a smile.

"Thank you, Ma'am. Oh yes, let's go in, please" said Devi with a smile because she forgot to invite Tia into her house.

Tia and Devi enter the house. "Are the kids awake?" tia asked Devi.

"It seems not yet, let me see" said Devi into the room where Hasan and Hasna slept.

Tia followed Devi from behind and looked at Tia. "Well, your mom hasn't all woken up yet?" Tia approached her son's bed.

"Mmc ... Mama's already here? Do you want to pick up Hasna?" asked Hasna with her eyes still closed.

"No ... Only mama is too upset with Hasna and sister Hasan" replied Tia as she kissed Hasna's cheek.

"But Hasna still wants to be here with Aunt Devi" Hasna said sulked.

"No, Honey. Mama didn't pick you up, mama just wanted to see if you're here to trouble Aunt Devi and om Aris not?" Tia reasoned.

"No, Ma'am. They are all independent and good at taking care of themselves as well" Devi said the truth.

"Shopping, Mommy? Vaaah ... Upholstered. Hasan and Hasna let's get up, mama invites you to go shopping" said Devi excitedly.

Tia only let out a long sigh, she could already guess surely Devi liked it when invited to shop. No problem for Tia, after all Devi was willing to take care of her child well.

"Jay ... Shopping, sister Hasan ... Let's wake!" Hasna shook Hasan's body which was still asleep. If it is a holiday, Hasan is most difficult to wake up.

"Hmmm ... I'm at home! Lazy shopping, tired ...." Hasan refused the wishes of the grandfather.

"Yeah ... Hasan is that! It would be fun if shopping with mom, everything we want must be bought," said Hasna who was disappointed with Hasan who did not want to go shopping at the mall usual mama invited them shopping.

Devi and Hasna look disappointed. Tia approached Hasan.

"Relse ... You really don't want to come, brother? Many people are disappointed if they don't come. No one will look after my brother here. If there are criminals, Hasan's brother has nothing to protect," Tia rubbed Hasan's hair.

Hasan who had been closed suddenly opened his eyes. Apparently the words of the mother he listened well.

"Alright, Ma. Hasan iku" said Hasan obediently. Hasan is a child who does not want to disappoint the mother. The woman who gave birth to him.

"Good, Son. You are indeed a devoted child to both your parents," said Tia while peeping the favorite son's forehead.

"Jay ... Finally my sister wants to too. Now Hasna wants to take a shower and get ready, " Hasna said as she got out of bed. He was most excited because if the mother invited him to shop then what he wanted would definitely be bought.

"Mhrs ... Devi had permission to shower and prepare" Devi said as she passed and returned to her room to clean up.

Tia smiled wryly, it seemed like this time her account was somewhat drained. But it does not matter if all this is for the happiness of his sister.

"Ma ... Mama just shut up? Are you not excited to shop this time? If not mending we just cancel, Ma," said Hasan who is sensitive to the mother.

Tia smiled and ruffled the son's hair. "Who is not excited? Mama is excited, but if there is one child who is not excited, of course, mama so not eager to shop," said Tia reasoned. He couldn't possibly be honest with the son about what he was feeling right now.

"Ooh ... So mommy is so because of Hasan huh? Alright then Hasan will wake up soon and prepare to go shopping," Hasan said with a meaningful smile. Little children can understand the feelings of women with a pink soft pashmina hijab and combined with a matching robe.

"Alright, mama is happy to wait for you," said Tia smiling with the child who cares so much for her. It is true what the ancients said, that no treasure is more precious than the son of Sholih and Sholihah, also cares for parents.

Tia looked at the back of the child coming out of the room to take a bath in the bathroom close to the kitchen. Hasan always succumbed to Hasna which sometimes took a long time in the bathroom.

"Ma ... Hungry," whined Hasna whose stomach was hungry because she had not been told breakfast by Devi.

"All right, now we'll all have breakfast. Do not let anyone eat late again, we can leave later after all had breakfast and drink juice," said Tia while opening the hood of food.

"Devi are you the one who cooked all this?" tanya Tia who was gawking saw what was available on the table and under the hood of the serving.

"Not really, Ma'am. All that Aris mas cuisine, Ma'am," Devi replied with a fluffy smile.

"Oh, Aris cooked all this!" tia asked, and only got a nod of the head from the sister-in-law.

"Sorry, Ma'am. At that time, Devi forgot that Devi had to prepare breakfast for Aris mas. It's not that mas Aris even serves Devi breakfast," said Devi defended herself. This time, all that is taking care of is Aris.
