Not a Thorn in a Wedding

The Arrival of In-Law

"Mom's hiding something from me? Calvina met Mom? Tell me where, Mom? Where's wife?" press Zayn impatiently.

Instantly his emotions overflowed to see the food he was so sorry for. My mother always cooked Calvina's favorite meal. How could Zayn stay calm. Irene continued to shake anxiously.

"No, Zayn. I don't cook for Calvina. I just want to give it to Rista. I just want to know if Rista likes that dish?" irene's lie carries the name of the second daughter-in-law.

Even while cooking it was not the slightest bit that middle-aged woman was intending to give it to Rista. Obviously their taste must be different. Rista will love whatever cuisine he brings but not as much as Calvina who will eat it.

Zayn who heard the mother's reply suddenly stepped into the room. He was reluctant to argue anything more with his mother if not Calvina. Until this moment Zayn has not improved with Rista. His apology to his second wife has not been fruitful to this day.

Here Irene rubbed her chest relieved to see the departure of the child. "Forced to be dismantled again. I can't possibly love Rista all of this." - inner irene.

He looked back in a hurry and left home. That afternoon Irene rushed to bring her two daughters-in-law. Rista certainly still welcomed him warmly even though he looked so wary. Afraid that Irene would talk about Calvina again.

"Loh Ma'am why is it so fast? Why not just have lunch together? Tuh Restu also wants lunch" said Rista pointed at the child on the dining table chair.

"Mother has a mutual agreement with Mother's friends, Ris. You eat it, hopefully like Mom's cooking. Restu, Grandma's home, baby." Irene's gentle swabs gave the grandchild instead of the birth.

His departure between Rista arrived at the main door of his house. Even the absence of Zayn in the house was not a question for Irene. Rista thought that the in-laws only knew that Zayn was in the office. While Irene did not ask about Zayn of course because she knew where the child was at the moment.

"Huh hopefully Zayn doesn't talk much to Rista. All I know is that they haven't struggled to date." Irene muttered on the way to Calvina's house.

No matter how strict Calvina said that Irene should not go to her house at this time. However, Irene insisted on visiting the daughter-in-law. He won't lose track of Calvina again.

"If Zayn can't get Calvina back, then I'll bring my daughter-in-law back. Calvina is my son-in-law and also my son. Between Rista and Calvina there's nothing I'm different about. But, I don't know why Rista's words while in the hospital made me have an unpleasant feeling? What exactly happened to Rista? Why did I decide so quickly?" unfortunately in the past where he only thought of Zayn's life that would be destroyed if it continued to fall like that.

And now he could feel the awkwardness of Rista's tone. Hopefully with a big heart Rista will give Zayn the decision of who to choose. However, what he heard from Rista's lips was different. The woman said she would not give the door to anyone including Calvina to enter her home life.

"Welcome, madam." said the waiter who works in the house.

They did not dare to say anything including about the existence of the Miss in the house. As his master commanded.

"I'm going to eat for my daughter-in-law. Excuse me, Bi." said Irene.

The middle-aged woman breezed into the magnificent house that she had not visited for a long time. The daughter-in-law's room was still very he had memorized in his mind.

"Cal, it's Mom." she exclaimed. Hands turn the door handle and open it. A beautiful face without make up is seen staring at him with puffy eye bags. Obviously Irene knew if it was because she cried so much.

"Calvina.." call her again. Irene walked over to Calvina hugging and kissing her beloved daughter-in-law.

There was no response Calvina showed him. The heart that was already in pain was numb. However, there was warmth when getting a hug from a woman who was so sincere to her.

"Mom, I'm fine." said Calvina.

Irene simply shook her head in rejecting the words of the daughter-in-law. He knew Calvina wasn't okay at the moment. Where her heart continues to feel pain if forced to give up her husband with another woman.

"No, Honey. You're not okay, Cal. I know you don't have to lie to me. I know you're sick, Cal." said Irene and Calvina were out of control. He cried loudly hugging the body of the in-law.

The quiet room since yesterday suddenly became silent. The sound of sobbing that Calvina was enduring finally broke out as well. Irene also felt pain in the heart of the daughter-in-law.

"I'm sorry, Cal. Mom was completely wrong about this. What do you have to do to make up for everything, son? What you asked me to do."

When the words were said, Calvina stopped her crying. He looked at her in the face as if he wanted to say something.
