Silent...
The atmosphere of the kitchen room in the morning was really very gripping. Rival could no longer tolerate his mother's disrespectful attitude.
His appetite suddenly disappeared, his mouth choked, the rice he had chewed could no longer be swallowed. Finally He gulped down a lot of water to launch the food in his mouth so that it could move into the esophagus and continue to the stomach.
Rival left the kitchen room so upset. Starting from dawn to breakfast his mother as if looking for his wife's fault.
Yeah, Rival knows exactly why his mom hates Rili.
The reason is, Rival's mother wants Rival to marry Rayati. A girl who likes Rival, but Rival doesn't like her.
Rayati type of woman who is barbaric, flirtatious and still many ugly traits. So Rival does not sreg to Rayati. Rival only considers Rayati as a friend.
Rayati and Rival both work on market levy quotes. Rayati often messes around to Rival's house to take Rival's mother's heart.
The frontal nature of Mother Rival was used by Rayati to influence her Mother, So that the Rival Household was destroyed, so that She would try to seduce Rival and his Mother to be able to marry Rival.
Rayati once spoke to Rival's mother during Rival's wedding at Rili's House.
"Mom, if Abang Rival is married to that girl from that town. Then Mother will be left Abang Rival because He will follow his wife.
"Surely Abang Rival will forget about Mother, He will also never again give money to Mother, like all this time. But, If I were Mom's daughter-in-law, I'd be happy to make you. I'll often love Mom money, and Brother Rival stays here with us." Rayati said in the afternoon on Sunday on Rival and Rili's wedding day.
It is Rayati's desire that makes the nature of Mother Rival more so-so. Although the nature of Rival's mother is very annoying. Even in a village that is a bit of a citizen it often avoids conversations with Rival Mother.
People in the village, still appreciate the Rival family because Father Rival is a wise custom shop. Rival is also very respected village people. Because of his good nature and Sholeh.
After Rival left the kitchen, Rival's father and mother left the kitchen after finishing breakfast.
Rili cleaned the kitchen and prepared the Rival bontot and filled the drinking water to a white plastic jerrycan with a volume of 5 liters.
Rival is seen waiting for his two co-workers. In bale-bale's yard. Ready for her work costume. Wear a hat and boots.
Yeah, they're 3 guys on one team. Where two people will be in charge of harvesting palm oil (Dodos) and one person is in charge of launching TBS palm into the production road.
Working wages to harvest oil palm fruit are paid by garden owners on average Rp 200/Kg or Rp 200 thousand/ton, or Rp, and the cost is included with the cost of TBS from the garden is issued to the production road body.
After harvesting, the TBS was transported again to the road by motorcycle. If the weather is good then the Rival team will be able to harvest 6 tons of palm oil in one day. So one day they will get a wage of 200 rb/person.
But, the call to oil palm does not exist every day, one Sunday Rival only twice.
2 More days in a week. That is Wednesday and Saturday Rival work citing market retribution services. And the other 3 days he used to garden vegetables and rice fields with his mother. Rival and his mother rent people's paddy fields, and if the harvest will then share the produce.
Sometimes he also takes a job for the services of a driver. Because he can take a car. He can also work in buildings.
Rival from childhood is used to working. He is a hard working man. So that He could help his father make a living and educate his younger brothers.
Sometimes at night Rival goes to shoot fish in the river. It only takes 2 hours if the sustenance is good. He can get river fish as much as 3-4 kg.
The fish is sometimes sold by his mother and also as their side dish. Rice does not buy, because they are rice fields, vegetables do not buy because Rival likes gardening. Tired of freshwater fish, sometimes his mother bought sea fish from the alongs that pass by every day. Stock of salted fish such as anchovies are also always in baskets that are hung near the furnace.
Rili came to Rival who was sitting in the bale-bale and brought Rival lunch.
"Thank you deck! don't take heart of Mom's words?" she said softly while looking at Rili and holding her hand.
Rili nodded
"Again a little late in the afternoon. Be careful at home!" said Rival and took off his hand from Rili's hand, because his friend had come by riding a motorcycle.
Rili kissed her husband's hand, where Rival immediately thrust his hand so that Rili could not digress.
Rival smiled as he responded to the chattering of his friend. While Rili quietly lowered her head.
Rival got on his bike and then they drove the bike to the oil palm plantation, which was almost an hour from Rival's house.
Rili was still sitting in the bamboo bale-bale.
He thought for a moment of his fate trapped in this country.
He deliberately took 3 weeks off. He wants to calm down. Because it is said He spent 3 Weeks in the village will be very pleasant and reassuring. But, everything did not match expectations.
It turned out that He entered the cage of the female tiger, which terrorized him every day.
"Emmmmmmm..... My life!" say it slowly.
Kring..kring...kring. Yes, in front of the Rival House is a cross road for villagers to activities.
Rili smiled at the mothers who reprimanded him.
Looks like the mothers will go to the rice fields or to the fields, because there are those who bring spray.
The road is half concrete. Although not smooth, but can already be passed by two and four-wheeled vehicles and even trucks. During drought. The road will bring out a lot of ash. The house in Rival village is only composed of one layer lined on the left and right side of the road.
Rili enjoys the cool air in the morning, the time still shows at 07.30 Wib.
Rili sat in a bale-bale with both legs hanging. He clenched his hands together and raised his head slightly. He breathed the morning air deeply. He closed his eyes.
He breathed repeatedly until he felt himself relaxed.
The sun is shining. The sky was clear, without a cloud. In addition, birds chirp unpretentious in the wild.
Just opening her eyes, her mother-in-law was already standing right in front of her.
"Waaahhh... Do you like this place?" said Ms. Rival and sat her ass in the bale-bale on Rili's right.
"Yes Bou, u...udaaraa..it's cold Bou!" rili said nervously.
"Bou wants to go to the rice field, because Rival does not allow you to go to the rice field. Then you take me to the fields on that bike." Said Mother Rival firmly and pointed to the bicycle trunk that nangkring next to the house.
Rili was surprised to hear Bou's request, She was afraid to piggyback with her Bou. But if he refuses. Then it would be a mistake for him.
"Yes Bou," said Rili softly.
"This is the key to the house, you hold."
Rili grabbed it from her in-laws hand.
Rili huddled her in-laws with a chaotic feeling, her heart skipping a beat as her Boumana let out a sound. Yes, the Bou said, because Rili doesn't know the way to the rice fields. So that her Bou gave instructions.
"Turn Left!" said Bou nya ketus.
Rili turned left trembling with gratitude they did not fall into the trench as Rili turned over a small bridge with no barriers. He's scared, he's traumatized. Hearing Bou's voice, his heart was about to be dislodged.
