“I'm just being lazy.”
“Cannot be! There must be another cause. Oh come on tell me.”
“No Neni.”
“You don't lie!” Neni's eyes narrowed at me, a sense of disbelief lingering in her heart.
Hows it? Should I tell you? Ck! What if he leaks later?
“Have you waited here for me. I'll be accompanied.”
Silent.
Neni looked at me sharply from the tail of her eyes, her face pouting for a hit. Okay, okay, I guess I should tell you.
“But you promise not to tell anyone yes.”
“You think I'm an SD boy!”
“So like this.” I said as I took a deep breath. “Today Aren chased me even to the point of forcing me to be his wife. He was also very fond of Pricilia, but one night he forced him to come out with a sentence that at that time really scratched my heart. I was angry, I was hurt and since then I lost respect for him.”
“Hah really?” Neni's eyes grew bigger, fortunately not to be separated from the place.
“Iya. And worse yet he came to my in-laws' house when I was outside.”
“Then how did your in-laws react?”
“You already know that Grandma's attached is so cruel? But that time was not. He just glanced at me snidely while saying ‘just go with your girlfriend it.’ I was also so shocked that his reaction was just like that, I thought he would kick me out of the house.”
“If the Aren is really in love even to the point of forcing you to be his wife, then why is he now married to another woman?”
“That's him that's been my question until now. The night Aren forced me to be his wife and the next morning also heard the news that he was going to marry a girl.”
“It looks like something is strange.”
“You mean?” I scrunched my forehead a sign of not understanding.
“If it is true that Aren will marry a girl one day after you refuse it means that it has been far from the day the man will intend to get married. There's no way that once you refuse he can get a replacement and go to the reception. Impossible! Ah or lest he is planning something to you.”
“Hah? What plan?”
“Yes where do I know.”
Quiescent.
There is no more discussion between us. Both me and Neni were all immersed in their respective guesses. What happened to Aren? Is it true that he has a plan for me? Butwhy? The feeling I never did anything wrong to that fat kibo.
Long we were silent until I realized and immediately pulled Neni's arm to enter the house. Do not want to linger finally mother of three children was involved to help me clean the entire house so as not to rest. Alhamdulillah deh count-calculate reduce back pain.
I'm getting confused. Come not come not? It's a little embarrassed to not come to Aren's wedding. But on the other hand I still hurt because of his indecent remarks about me that would not be able to support Pricil.
Uh yes Pricil. How is he doing, huh? Hopefully there will be good news today from the police about my missing son.

I lay my body on the bed, so tired. All this day my work was just around the ria around Batam City with the Neni. Many shops that we have entered but there is no one that fits, whether to look for how the mother-emak-embong that one. Not to mention the Repha who was busy asking for a sling because he was tired of walking. The vow! My kidneys are rich enough to take off her rich baby rhino.
We also had a call to Elin earlier but the woman said that she would buy a parcel for Aren with her husband tonight. It's good if there is a husband, everywhere can be picked up, there is always something cool. Not rich me! Let not my husband and even my son disappear from my life. Hahahaha miris!
Is there any suffering worse than this?
I guess it's just me hahaha.
Who knows, there is already a great waiting ahead.
I went to the small room to clean myself before going to bed. Brushing my teeth and washing my face is what I do every night. I can't imagine that I'm sleeping in a state of food scraps that are still stuck in the mouth. Wow could be a nest of germs later on, the smell of waste disposal too surely.
After my cleaning ritual was over, I went back to bed and began to close my eyes. My mind must be empty, I want to calm down.
Huaaaa huaaaa hiks huu huaaa.
Hey who's that?
Is there a baby in this place?
Ck shit! My eyes are back.
Immediately I awakened the body and moved to the doorway. Whose son is this night still opening his eyes? Or maybe he's at my door. Oh can't! I need to see it right now.
Chequek.
“Loh?”
Blank.
Niente. There's nobody here but the baby's voice is still very loud teasing the snail inside my ear. I stepped slowly forward, listening to the noise that had disturbed my sleep tonight.
And it turns…
Oh My God!
His voice is next door.
Ou turns out my neighbor has a little boy.
But something's weird. The more I heard that voice as if it was familiar to my ears. I often hear cries like that. The vow! His voice was similar to that of Pricilia.
Ah but yes, after all, everywhere the baby's voice is always the same. I better continue my sleep that was delayed earlier. Could be bad luck later if you stay up late.
23:00 WIB
“Aduuuuh ck!”
I'm upset. Why has it been almost two hours but the crying has not gone away? Where are her parents? Is it possible that the child is sick so that he cannot be silent? My butterflies are hot. I don't know why my heart was also sliced to hear the baby's voice from across there. I really want to knock on the neighbor's door and scold his parents or just make sure how the child is. Oh or maybe I'll carry it and put it to sleep in my arms.
It's fate if we live in a rented house that is lined up. Anything for sure people can know, talking a little must be a whack especially if until the sound of crying rich banter so. Eum fortunately also I gapunya husband yes, ga kebayang if again anu-anuan and the same astonishment of kikik neighbors.
