My Prayer From Forbidden Places

Chapter 2: When My Husband Is Unresponsible

At the time, I had two ATMs. The balance in my other ATM is zero rupiah. While at the ATM specifically for my efforts has been drained 30 million for the cost of my daughter's treatment of brain inflammation symptoms.

Therefore, I had to start all over again to set aside some spending money for the future of our family.

Meanwhile, the threat of renting to extend the home contract is in sight. We need 9 million. Although it is still less than 6 months, but, as a wife I have to think about it far away.

Aside from my husband's income, I have a small business selling credit goods. After the calamity of the sick child symptoms of inflammation of the brain, my turnover decreased drastically and even nearly collapsed.

Practically, our only cost of living hangers are from the employment of a husband who works for his sister-in-law.

One time my husband came home from work to a rented house with a restless face. "I quit my job, Mom!"

Hearing my husband's words, my emotions burst out and wanted to shout for a moment, but I held it in my heart. "Patience, patience, give your husband a chance to defend himself" my heart whispered.

"Why did you decide to quit your job? Kan, have you done enough work with brother-in-law? It has been made a handyman supervisor and the pay is very good, "quote me with patience, because, who knows my husband is in the right position.

"I'm offended by what he said, sister, Mom!"

Huh..!

Just an offended question my husband decided to quit work?

This means that he is more concerned with his personal ego than his responsibility to support his wife's children.

"Where do you want to work? Working is hard, sir?" Tanyaku. Finally, my tears could no longer hold me.

Hearing my voice rise, my husband simply fell silent not daring to answer.

***************************

Ever since my husband became unemployed, my temper turned into a chatty wife. This is because I can't stand to see his daily life relaxing. It seems he is not burdened as the head of the family who must have responsibilities.

I must be a cheerleader to him, for I am the last refuge of my daughter's life.

I told him to apologize to his brother-in-law, so he could work there again, but he didn't want to. My husband has a high prestige. He did not want to look troubled before the eyes of his family.

"Where sich, sir. Just calm down. No thinking of wife's children! If this continues, we can starve to death, sir!"

Already repeatedly, such talk I target to my husband, so that there greget out of the house looking for work. If my words came out that pressured him, then he went out of the house to find work. But, coming home always carries empty hands.

Seeing my husband's behavior like that, it's very difficult not to be a chatty wife for him.

Not to mention the treatment of my in-laws who still looked at me one eye. In fact, I have been so devoted to my husband and my in-laws, but, still, I am said to be a wasteful wife. I love showing off new stuff on Facebook.

Though what I show off is my merchandise that I post so that someone is interested.

**************************

One day my husband came home with good news. " I have a project with my friend, Mom!. The project is just like big brother-in-law did, it's a loh!"

"Alhamdulillah!"

Hearing my husband get a job I was happily carefree. I hugged my husband with the warmest hug I had.

"But, Mom!" He interrupted my joy with his sad look.

"But what, sir?"

"To carry out the project requires an initial capital of 25 million an. Buy materials and tools. Only later if the work is completed, the results can be 3 times, Mom!"

"Where does the initial capital of the project go from, sir?"

"Linjami put money in your savings first!"

After deducting the cost of pain symptoms of inflammation of my daughter's brain, the nominal savings became much reduced. If, my husband's desire to borrow 25 million I follow, then I'm betting. If it turns out to miss, then me and my daughter will get worse.

"Alright, Sir!"

I decided to give my husband an initial capital of 25 million even though this heart was very doubtful to him. Who knows if he has been successful with his project.

After a week, he asked for 10 million more money on the grounds to pay the rent of his place of business. I approved his request, because, the reason makes sense. Although I know, if minus 10 million more, then, the rest of my savings is only 2 million.

In the middle of the road when taking money at the Bank, I became hopeful to be anxious. My heart prays, may my husband's project work be successful. If it fails, then it's me and my daughter.

When I got home I gave the 10 million to my husband.

...................

Not for a month, my husband wanted to borrow more money to pay his men.

'The project is a loss, ma'am! It turns out the friend who worked together, the con man! All aluminum is unpaid. Now the guy's gone nowhere." He said he hoped for my help.

I'm stuck hearing it. I can only stare with my eyes glaring. My emotions have really reached the crown. My hands were shaking in clenching.

'If the fare of my men is not paid, what is my fate, mother? I can be reported to the Police station!" My husband said. He thought I still had money in the savings of tens of millions.

Faced with the fact that my 35 million dollars spent on business capital, I panicked. My mouth can't fuss anymore. I can only cry hard.

A moment later I entered the room to pick up the savings book.

"Look at the contents of his savings, how much is left? Looky!" The savings book I threw right in his face.

" We haven't paid the contract. Your child if the recurrence of the shock, where else can it cost? The savings are only 2 million, sir!" I screamed with tears.

" What will our son eat, sir? Where will we stay, when the contract is up?" I cried with a voice of sorrow.

My husband just fell silent. I can't say another word to him. My anger can't be contained anymore. Some home furniture, I slam.

"Apes I'm your wife, sir!" my screams at him.

I don't know what came to his mind, my husband rushed on a motorcycle and went somewhere.

"Astagfirefull!" I reflexively mentioned the name of God when I saw my daughter crying loudly in the room.

I hugged my daughter with deep sadness.

*****************************

Ever since that fight, my husband never came to our contract.

I waited two weeks for his arrival, but did not come. I saw the comments on his facebokk status, it turns out he went home to his parents.

Maybe her parents were happy, seeing my husband without me again. I closed my Facebook account, I blocked his HP number. I closed the communication access with him.

For two months, he never came to my rented house.

While the two million in my savings was already drained for my living expenses and the cost of buying medicine for my daughter.

Every day, the cost of my life and my daughter's I take from my mortgage. To survive I became a washerman scrubbing his neighbor's clothes.

Yes, God!

Having exhausted my son's future savings, my irresponsible husband left me and my daughter.

I am really desperate. I was at the nadir of life. I was so upset, confused, between going home to my parents or staying on the land with my daughter? Connect ...
