Neighbors Become Households

Stay at Mother's House

Eps. 23

Arga had arrived at the house of the in-laws, before he had brought Tofa home.

Without much behavior, Arga immediately broke the young coconut and took the water. After that pour it into the glass and give it to Jihan.

Jihan received the glass and drank the young coconut water, it tasted fresh and sweet.

''How's nim? Not been out yet?'' ask mother.

Jihan nodded, Mas Arga why is it so long? Where are you looking anyway?''

Waduh, if I told Jihan, she must have spewed her black water.

Instead of answering, Arga was silent looking for the right answer. For now he understands very well if the mood of the wife is not good, the hormones in his body can change every second.

"Mas!" call again. While the mother sat still and listened to the interaction of the two.

"Eh? Yes baby?" jerks.

"Where's the sheep? Why long? Are you abroad?"

"Haha where possible," pinched Jihan's nose squash. "So the muter-muter was not met so ask at a friend's house."

"Isn't he? I'm sorry, but because I'm a hassle."

Arga smiled, "No dear, I don't feel bothered at all. Quite the contrary, if you again in pain immediately say yes, do not hold it alone."

Aaaa mas Arga, I think I want to fly I want to fly this.

Jihan smiled as Arga's hand gently stroked her hair.

"Thank you, ma'am" Jihan smiled.

''Same dear, quickly spend." Arga's hand rubbed his wife's stomach.

Mother who witnessed the harmony of this couple warmed her heart. Now he is fully convinced that Arga can be trusted to take care of Jihan and guide her. It is true that the choice of the husband is never wrong, inwardly.

"Mas, can't I sleep at mom's?" pinta Jihan, while her hand moved Arga's hand that was attached to her stomach.

The base of Arga's naughty hands, can't be conditioned. Like I'm a pregnant person just being rubbed on his stomach.

Arga's face changed pias, "Why dear? Did I make a mistake?" feeling uneasy because this time Jihan asked to stay away from him.

Jihan laughed, "This one why is so anxious? I just want to sleep at my mom's. Why is my face panicking?" Stopped saying. "Emm? Or do I make mistakes I don't know?"

Getting such a probing gaze made Arga shrink. Afraid if caught out dealing with a widow who becomes his wife's rival.

"No dear. Tumben aja so want to sleep at home mom," scratching his nape that does not itch.

"If Arga wants to stay too, it's okay, son. Some distance of your house is close, if you need goods can go home for a while, take" bargained mother.

"Actually I want Ma'am, but there's work that Arga has to finish, so Arga has to cut the equipment here, Mom's weight."

"Is that so, son?"

Jihan replied, "But I want to sleep here mas," staring with cute panda eyes.

Arga looked behind his wife, a sharp move that was able to shake Arga's defense to not be able to resist the desire of the wife.

"You may linger here, dear, but don't be long, yes" a sentence of resignation is finally spoken.

Seeing Arga's facial expression which according to him is very adorable, making Jihan so unable to resist teasing him.

"Ah is real? I will not sleep on the side. Could not sleep, "painting the chin of the husband.

"Darling! Don't tease me, or I won't come home to you, but you're actually the one who can't sleep without me, right?" flirt back.

"Where there is," refuted.

"Yes there! if you don't infiltrate my armpits, you won't sleep, "hold a laugh. "Wait to finish sniffing the scent of my armpits just get some sleep, won't you."

Satisfied to make the wife blush. Hearing Jihan and Arga's conversation, Miss Diana laughed.

"Owlah Nim, it turns out that your father's habits descend on you huh. Your father also sleeps like to sneak into the armpits of the mother, haha," mother laughs cheerfully, to the point of wiping tears that drip from the tip of the eyelid.

Jihan was moved to see her mother could laugh as well as that back. The usually moody mother is now slowly starting to open again. And that's thanks to Arga mas also who always try to entertain us.

Jihan smiled, "I'm glad to see you laughing again" looking at her mother's face.

Mom smiled, "Without your relationship, you have to be fine, yeah! If there is a problem or misunderstanding resolve it well and find a way out the same.''

''Mother take it easy, I will guide the mother's daughter to become a mature and independent woman but also to remain herself, who is spoiled and cute." Arga smile. While grabbing the hands of jihan and his mother-in-law and then grasping warmly.

After the eye-eye-eyelan session, in the end Arga really went home alone, and let his wife stay at home mother for just one night no more.

Actually, he also wanted to come with his wife, but was constrained by the work he had to finish because tomorrow he had to go back to work.

That night Arga still completed his duties. The time had shown at eleven o'clock in the evening, and outside there was the sound of rain that began to fall without any rumbling.

"It's a good thing it didn't rain with lightning, or I wasn't really worried about being scared."

His mind again remembered the first time married first when it rained. Jihan is very afraid of the sound of lightning and asks him not to leave her from the room.

"Ckk, deserted is also far from my wife. Don't know if I can sleep or not tonight," his face really looks lethargic.

There is an intention to contact his wife but is afraid to sleep and even disturb his rest.

"May my dear sleep well, even without inhaling the smell of my armpits."

That night Arga did not stop mengedumel alone, accompanied by the sound of rain.

Outside there is still a rain that is not too heavy. After finishing the job, Arga felt thirsty. He went to the kitchen to get water.

''Oiya, the key of my motorbike have I taken yet from the motor?'' suddenly he remembered. And went out to check it out.

''Oh my goodness I remember, the habit if not reminded Jihan must continue forgetfulness, '' he said while pulling the key that still hangs on the bike.

Arga rolled a glance at the front yard of his house, he rubbed his eyes. When looking at a shadow under the rain.

He wanted to not care but that person looked very pityful, instead of immediately leaving that person was instead sitting crouching down like enduring pain.

''What if he needs help? Aihh I am not a human being who is inhuman.''

His heart moved to help him, Arga went into the house first to take an umbrella, after which went out again to approach the person.

''Excuse me? can I help you?''

It was a woman who was bowing her face. When she heard Arga's voice, she looked up and looked up.

''Mba Mutia?'' Arga jerks. ''Ngapain mba here at midnight like this, rain rain rain anyway.''

Arga took pity and shared an umbrella with him.

Mutia's face looked pale, and was enduring the pain.

''My stomach hurts bang, it hurts so much, '' she groaned with a raucous voice.

''Where are you going?'' asked Arga worriedly. He also helps Mutia to stand up but the woman is unable to because her stomach hurts too much.

''I want to go to the clinic bang, but not strong way. So hurt. Aww.. ouch.." she groaned.

Arga so not to the heart, indeed sometimes this woman can be annoying and impolite. Always looking for trouble with his wife. But seeing her alone limping under the rain made Arga feel sorry. He is not one who sees others in distress.

''She was alone, right?''

''Yes bang, ask who else? I just live alone.''

Arga weighed the decision that made his heart in a dilemma. On one side I want to help. But restless if Jihan finds out and misunderstands.

''Mr Arga, can I please take you to the clinic? I couldn't stand it anymore, it hurt so much, '' she asked with a pleading look.

Not rushing to get an answer Mutia continued to speak again, For just this once Bang, I really cannot afford to go alone. Come on bang help me!''

''For a while, I asked my wife's permission.''

Mutia chose to nod in resignation, because the pain she could not bear anymore.

Arga grabs the phone in her pants pocket and wants to contact Jihan. But when he saw that the clock had shown almost midnight he undoed his intentions.

''Jihan must have been sleeping, pity also if I disturb her is sick.''

''Where is jehan?'' ask Mutia.

''There, she's staying at mom's house. Yasudah let me just take it. Tomorrow morning I explain to him. Hopefully not misunderstood.''

Hehe good chance to come to me too, you're too arrogant boy. Then wait for me to destroy that arrogance of yours!

Mutia had planned a scheming.

Arga immediately put his phone in his pocket and stood guiding Mutia.

"Please hold the umbrella, yeah! I'll get the bike first."

Mutia nodded and pulled over slightly under the umbrella.

I'm sorry, honey, I didn't betray. If someone else were in Mutia's position, I would do the same. Tomorrow I'll be honest with you.

Arga immediately launched his motorbike to cut down the rain that fell that night with Mutia who he held back.

The shameless woman, instead of keeping her distance from her husband people actually hold tightly to embrace Arga's waist.

''Mba don't hold it too tightly!" pitched annoyed.

"I'm afraid of falling down Arga bang, my stomach hurts. It hurts so bad bang.'' It was not Mutia his name if it did not take the opportunity even in any conscious state.

Arga breathed a rough breath, "Alright! We'll be there soon."

The man increased the speed of his motorcycle to immediately arrive because he did not feel at home lingering with women who could be a trigger for his wife's anger.

Finally, the motorcycle they ride has arrived at a clinic that is always open 24 hours in case of an emergency.

Arga immediately went down and led Mutia inside and registered with the administration.

No wait for a long time the doctor immediately took her to the examination room. Arga breathed a little. I don't know what time it is tonight. The only fear in Arga's mind is, pray that tomorrow morning when he explains to Jihan will not be angry or misunderstood.

A few minutes later Mutia came out, her face seemed to improve.

"Already mba?" ask Arga.

"Yes bang is good, thank you sorry to bother."

"It's okay mba, here let me redeem the medicine. Mba wait here!" taking the prescription medicine that Mutia was holding and heading to the pharmacist's table.

Mutia nodded and chose to sit in the waiting chair.

Not far from where Mutia and Arga were, apparently there was someone who was watching their movements.

"Isn't that right, it's Dek Jihan's husband but is it the same widow huh? nights like this together. Does deck Jihan don't know ya?"

Who else if not Miss Rida. Neighbors who live near Jihan's mother's house. Ms. Rida was also in the same clinic as Mutia. Because check the condition of his son who suddenly hot fever.

Arga has arrived at Mutia's house. Deliver Mutia home, because she remembers her Mama's word if it is helping people then do it to completion not half.

"Well, if you meet my wife, don't talk about tonight. I really don't want any misunderstandings between us. Tomorrow after he returns from mom's house, I'll explain everything. Please Mutia understand!" emphatically.

"Sorry to bother Bang Arga. I promise I won't find trouble to Abang's wife,'' get off the bike while carrying a crackle containing drugs.

Arga nodded, "I hold the promise mba. Then I'll go home. Have a good rest mba."

After the departure of Arga. "I'm sorry I promised her a lie," while raising one of her hands whose fingers she linked between the middle finger and index finger to form a cross (🤞).

"But not completely disavow the bang, indeed I will not tell you but your wife will know from others," smiled cunningly.
