It was an agreement between Ronald and Nia that once a month should stay at Mama Sri's house. Actually Nia was a bit heavy-hearted, but as a good wife she had to obey her husband's will.
Honestly, last night Nia was a bit hurt with Mama Sri who had bought martabak but just stored it in the refrigerator, eaten not a bit. But Nia tried to understand and be patient with the attitude of Mama Sri.
Returning to work with Jakarta congestion and office distance with Mama Sri's house which is quite far away makes Nia want to immediately rest. If at home first, when Nia came home a little night Mama had prepared hot water for a bath and a glass of warm milk to drink before going to bed, do not forget a delicious dinner has been served at the dining table.
It's different tonight at Mama Sri's house. Let alone dinner, a glass of water was not served, even Mama Sri rather bete because not invited to dinner outside because Nia's arrival was late. "Ah, I miss Mama" Inner Nia in heart.
Nia tied her hair, ready for her duties as a housewife. Mama Sri has entered the room and does not want to go out again, maybe still bete, so be it. Nia then cooks water for a warm bath, Ronald used to take a warm bath if he came home at night. Nia's stomach sounds clammy, a sign asking to be filled. Nia last ate at lunch at 11 o'clock due to the ration of 1 hour 11 shift meal. He saw the clock on the wall, it was 9 pm, which means 10 hours ago he last ate, just deserved the stomach sounds to be filled.
"What to eat?"nia murmured in the heart. Want to eat martabak that He bought, not good to fear elbow ulcers. What did her mother-in-law say later. Soon a satay man called out in front of the house. "Te.. satay...." . Nia immediately rushed out of the house and called the saturator.
"Bang satay." The satay man stopped in front of Mama Sri's house.
"Bang buy 30 pricks" said Nia.
"Yes neng. A lot of Neng. Don't you neng Suzanna huh?"
"What the hell is Bang. I humans know. I was a laper fortunately Abang passed by. The patch is separate yes" Nia said with a smile. "Abang Sate, you are my saviour" Nia murmured in her heart.
Ronald, who was looking for Nia at home but did not find her, finally came out because he saw the kitchen door open. The wife ordered satay.
"Well you know I'm hungry. How many pricks did you order?" ask Ronald
"I'm hungry too. I ordered 30 pricks. Enough ga?" ask Nia back.
"Enough. If it's better tomorrow. Yehudah I entered, yea, as if hot water were boiling, let me turn it off"
"Yes please, baby. Thanks" Ronald went inside and left Nia waiting for the order to mature.
Nia paid for the satellite order and brought the satellite inside. Sate is served at the dinner table along with rice and drinking water. Nia then called Ronald and Mama Sri to eat together. Rena still hasn't come home. Mama Sri refused to participate she said she was full, I don't know if she might still not eat outside. Nia was enjoying her dinner so well. Finish eating Nia a warm bath and sleep well.
******
The next day Nia woke up. Understand the hp alarm only distel if working only, during the weekend time to wake up during the day. Nia also woke up in the afternoon. At 8am he just woke up. Ronald was sleeping well too.
Not good as a guest who woke up during the day, Nia rushed to take a shower and rushed to help Mama Sri. Finished bathing Nia directly approached Mama Sri who was cooking in the kitchen.
"Is there anything Nia can help Ma? Sorry Nia's bad luck"
"Ga. I want to finish cooking" replied Mama Sri.
"Ga. Mama has done it all" Mama Sri replied without looking at Nia. Nia felt bad.
"I'm sorry Ma, Nia woke up late, so can't help Mama" Nia apologized with regret
Mama Sri just kept quiet. Nia knew that Mama Sri was angry with her. So Nia just kept quiet without doing anything. Then he saw the dining table had no plates and spoons. Nia then took it in the cupboard and arranged it on the dining table. Mama Sri glanced at what Nia was doing and then muttered softly but still could be heard by Nia.
"Wedlock marriage wake up during the day, how will fit to have children, want to be told what their children if the mother is lazy"
Deg. Mama Sri's words felt so deeply piercing her heart. Nia knew that she had been wrong to wake up during the day, but could Mama Sri not advise her well? a speck of clear water filled his eyes but he was held back. Soon Ronald who was awake immediately approached Mama Sri in the kitchen.
"Ma, Onald laper. What's your mom cooking?"
"Mama cook your favorite vegetable lodeh, son. Let's eat together. Dear Nia please call Rena yes we eat together" Mama Sri talked sweetly with Nia.
"Kok his attitude is different yes the same" muttered Nia but he just said "He Ma, Nia call Rena first" Before long Nia called Rena in her room and invited her to eat together. They walked to the dining table together and told stories.
Breakfast at noon took place while chatting between the mother and child. But Nia was silent. Nia feels an outsider among their relationships. Nia forced her to swallow her food when she did not have an appetite. Nia was engrossed in her own daydream until suddenly Ronald nudged her arm and startled her.
"Yes what's wrong?"
"You daydream, baby. Mama nanya tuh. Have you got any signs yet?" Ronald says.
"What signs?" Nia was confused by the question asked for her.
"Sign that you've filled in, baby"
"Fillies? Pregnant mean?" ask Nia again to make sure.
"Yes. Have you had any signs of pregnancy yet?" ask Mama Sri.
"Yet Ma. Just yesterday Nia was able to menstruate" replied Nia.
"You should try more so quickly to have a baby. Mom wants to have a grandchild soon. Let's like Mama's arisan friends" pinta Mama Sri.
"Silence Ma. Later Onald continued to make efforts to be cepet so" said Ronald while glancing mischievously towards Nia. Nia just smiled flatly in response to her husband's words.
"May you guys be loved momongan ya. Mama did not wait to become a grandmother" the three mothers and children continued their conversation. Nia was silent, engrossed in her own thoughts.
