Mr. Ustadku
Son-in-law



“ Umi seneng finally umi has friends in the same gender house. “ said umi while smiling and holding Selsa's hand she invited into the house. “ Elyas is too stiff to be a person. It is difficult indeed if you have a son. “ whispered and welcomed laughter by Selsa.


“ Sit down, consider your own home. Umi will make a drink for you. “ continued umi when he arrived in the middle room.


“ Umi... What is umi not wrong ? Umi told me to think of this as my own home. But if Umi wants to make me drink, doesn't that mean I'm a guest here ? “ Selsa jokes that followed umi into the kitchen.


“ You can aja. “ sahut umi chuckle.


“ Umi just show me where it is, Selsa who will make drinks for Elyas mas. “ said Selsa with his agile movements.


He realized, here, he could not rely on bi Ranti. The old woman who took care of him and took care of him from childhood. Prepare all his needs.


Here, he is a son-in-law and a wife. So he has to get used to this life. And fortunately, the last few days before he married, he had asked bi Ranti to do small homework - small, also to make drinks.


“ Alright. Elyas if you like to drink hot green tea – hours. But he doesn't like to be too sweet. “ says umi. Selsa nodded. She will learn from now on to prepare the needs of her husband. She will be the wife that Elyas expected. Perhaps, he would take cooking lessons as well starting tomorrow. Selsa smiled at the idea that popped into her brain.


“ Umi, which cup next to ? “ tanyanya.


“ Is in the top closet, number two from the left, son. “ umi gave the command. Selsa immediately opened the cupboard that was pointed at Umi. He smiled faintly, then took three cups from the cup. Then he looked for where Umi was putting the sugar. Without having to ask, Selsa found what she was looking for.


“ Umi, usually, how much sugar does Elyas use ? “ ask Selsa. “ Sorry, umi if Selsa asks too many questions. Selsa did not know Elyas. And also there are still many things that Selsa must learn again. “ he continued a little condolence.


Umi smiled warmly, then approached Selsa. “ Your husband likes if the sugar is half a teaspoon only. “ he said.


“ As soon as enough, umi ? “ asked Selsa while showing the amount of sugar he took from inside the jar. Umi nodded with a smile. He stroked Selsa's back from the side. Umi felt, Selsa was not like a rich man's son who only wanted – foot barges.


“ Umi, how much sugar do you want ? “ asked Selsa again when about to take sugar for the next glass.


“ No need, Selsa. Let umi make it yourself. “ suhut umi.


Selsa. “ No umi. Selsa is here now. Umi's son too right ? “ asked while looking at umi. Umi nodded with a smile. “ So from now on, let Selsa take care of umi. “ her door, then she grabbed the left hand of umi who was on the kitchen table, then kissed the back of her hand.


Umi smiled and was moved to see Selsa. Right – right beyond umi's expectations. Umi is happy, her son brings a daughter-in-law like Selsa. He doesn't want another daughter-in-law. Just a few minutes together, Umi feels comfortable with her new daughter-in-law.


“ Umi one spoon only. “ say umi and Selsa nod and smile. He poured the sugar according to the dose desired by Umi into the umi glass. Then he poured another spoonful of sugar in the third glass.


They talked – saying while drinking the tea that Selsa made earlier. Shortly after, Elyas joined in.


“ Assalamu’alaikum, umi. “ greet Elyas. He kissed the back of Umi's hand.


“ Waalaikum greetings. “ reply umi. “ You must be tired. Drink first, Yas. “


Elyas sat down next to Umi, and took the green tea made by Selsa earlier. “ Umi made tea is always addictive. “ said Elyas after he sipped the still hot tea.


“ Delicious Yas ? “ ask umi while smiling thinly. “ Does it feel like changing ? “ he frowned.


Elyas shook his head quickly. “ It always feels the same and fits in the mouth of Elyas. “ he replied back sipping the.


“ Wow, it looks like your wife can be relied on. “ said umi while looking at the daughter-in-law who looks embarrassed by her praise. “ That's your wife's tea. “


Bruusshhh


Elyas spouted the tea in his mouth, surprised to find that the one he thought was made by his wife. It feels right – is right just like his wish.


“ Ih, mas. How dirty ! “ upset Selsa because of the tea that Elyas sprinkles fitting in the direction of her skirt.


“ Yes yes. Elyas you are so dirty. Not polite this is his name. “ umi reminded.


“ On lap first son. Skirt. “ umi gives tissue to Selsa.


“ Yes, umi. No, pa really. “ Selsa instead displays his grinning smile.


“ Oh, umi. Elyas wants to go to the room first. Want ready – ready to mosque. I want to dohur. “ saying goodbye to Elyas which happens to be almost the time of Duhur. He had a reason to get out of that condition.


“ Iyakah ? Well, it does not feel yes if at home there is a fun chat gini. “ suhut umi. “ Yes already, you are ready – ready there spit. Umi wants to talk to your wife in a moment. “


Elyas nodded and immediately went to his room. Umi and Selsa continued their conversation.


Before long, Elyas came out of his room. “ Umi, Elyas to mosque now. “ farewell Elyas.


Umi nodded.


“ Selsa, you should rest first in the room. You must be tired. “ said umi. Actually he wanted to invite Selsa to pray together. But he was not brave. Afraid of saying wrong.


Selsa nodded then stood up and stepped in doubt. He looked confused as to where. Sometimes he scratches his head that does not itch.


“ Mmm... Umi,,” call it. Umi. “ Which Selsa Room ? “ tanyanya.


Umi chuckles at her daughter-in-law. “ Sorry, umi forgot. Come, umi show Elyas room. “ invite him.


“ Ka-room mas Elyas ? What is Elyas' room ? “ parrot selsa.


“ Yes Yes dong. Elyas room is also your room son. “ replied umi while continuing to walk to Elyas room.


“ Mmm…. Umi... Is there no other room ? Besides Elyas's room ? “ ask Selsa liver – hearts. Will he sleep in one room with Elyas forever ?


Umi scrunched her forehead. “ Why should another room ? “


“ Bu-not so umi. “ Selsa looks wrong.


“ Umi has only three rooms. One room Elyas, one room umi, and another, room dirty, son. Because it was never occupied. So better, go to your husband's room. “ umi know what this daughter-in-law means. She must be uncomfortable staying in a room with her husband. But umi should make them good – is fine. Don't let there be a split word or anything like that.


Inevitably, Selsa finally nodded. When he opened Elyas' room, he stopped. “ Umi. “ call it. Umi turned body. “ What umi is also going to the mosque ? “ tanyanya lirih.


“ You want to join usi to the mosque ? “ tanya umi sparkling.


Selsa quickly shook her head. “ No umi. Selsa .. Selsa is ashamed to pray in the mosque. Selsa .. Selsa asked, if umi does not pray in the mosque, Selsa wants to pray together umi. “ he said afraid.


Both corners of the umi Titin lips are back pulled upwards. “ Subhanallah. Umi will pray at home. Same you. “ he said happy. “ Now, take ablution. Umi wait in the back mushola yes. “

^^^Hai hai hai .....^^^


^^^^ Just info and clarification for all readers....^^^


^^^In the previous bab², there is a comment that the nature of Elyas is not very for an ustadz...^^^


^^^So in this othor story, deliberately the attitude of Elyas othor make it like that. othor want to show the struggle of a Selsa who incidentally is a girl who does not understand religion, can change.... A Selsa's struggle to conquer Elyas...^^^


^^^If for example Elyas' attitude immediately welcome to Selsa, the story becomes monotonous... Straight like a toll road that is not open...After all, even though Elyas was an ustadz, Elyas was also an ordinary man???^^^
