Sri's marriage has already had two years of marriage. But Sri is not yet pregnant, even though with an effort to go to a child shaman or go to the obstetrician. Sri is still not pregnant, even Sri also often drinks traditional herbs for fertility of her uterus.
With all the prayers and efforts, Sri tries to be patient when every month Sri always comes the guest of the red.
Every Sri the arrival of red guests Mother-in-law always angry increasingly become-so treat Sri like a maid in the house. And Yanto who was also affected by the nature of his mother also judged Sri who could not give him a child.
Sri then returned to his village, only by using a shirt attached to his body Sri was escorted home to his parents. The jewelry on her body was removed and all the gifts from Yanto were taken by her mother-in-law without leaving a single item.
Sri was ushered home by her mother-in-law's man. Without saying goodbye to her husband Yanto, Sri was expelled without any honor in her.
for months without clarity Sri was at his parents' house without any word of divorce or talak from Yanto's mouth. And Sri was never blessed while there in her parents' house.
Sri needs money to connect her life and her parents to meet her daily needs Sri works as a odd job at her neighbor's house. Even when there are no neighbors who need his energy Sri went around peddling cakes with a profit of 500 rupiah per cake.
When Sri went around to peddle the cake, there was a neighbor who told him that Yanto had married again and Yanto married a close friend of Sri, Tati.
How heartbroken Sri heard the news, even with the heart of her own friend took her husband. But anyway this has become his life's destiny. Early marriage is forced by the difficult circumstances of his life.
The marriage of Yanto and Tati was held so lavishly different when Sri and Yanto married. The show is so simple and what it is.
Sri continued to walk around the village peddling her cakes. With a feeling that is not okay. Sri tried to toughen up for the sake of both parents.
Sri almost shed her tears when she met Uncle Herman. Uncle Herman is the younger brother of Sri's mother. He was always kind to him, even since Sri's father was sick. Uncle Herman always gave us money to treat and eat at home. Uncle Herman was very different from Uncle Pur and the other Uncle Sri.
Other Sri Uncles, they come only when Father Sri is still healthy. Now that Sri's father is sick, none of them come or visit Sri's father. They were afraid that we might come in debt or ask them for help.
Sri told Uncle Herman about what had happened. And about the coercion done by Uncle from his father's side. A marriage that Sri never wanted.
Uncle Herman who heard the story was sad about the fate of his nephew Sri. Uncle Herman was in Jakarta.
Uncle Herman himself worked odd jobs in Jakarta.
Uncle Herman who worked there since his business in the village fell bankrupt found it easier to find money in Jakarta.
"Sri do you want to join Uncle working in Jakarta? " Uncle Herman invites Sri to follow in his footsteps looking for money in Jakarta.
"i'll think about it first Uncle, and ask Mom." Sri replied, to Uncle Herman.
Sri thought carefully to go wandering again. And asked his mother for her opinion.
"What if Sri went to Jakarta to find a job like Uncle Herman mom?" ask Sri to her mother.
" If you feel confident Sri, please pray Mother always with you, May success be in your hands son," replied Mother Sri.
Ibu Sri deliberately did not immediately give an answer yes or no. Sri's mother told her son to think again about what he had talked about.
Sri who had intended to go to Jakarta considered his mother's answer, that it was a sign of permissibility.
The next morning Sri went to the house of Uncle Herman, while peddling his cakes in the street Sri was impatient to meet his Uncle Itu.
Sri arrived at her uncle's house. But his uncle was not home. Sri who waited long enough, went to sell her cakes again, when by late afternoon and the sale was running out, Sri stopped by again to Uncle Herman's house.
This time Sri met with Uncle Herman and said that she wanted to go to Jakarta.
"Uncle Herman, I want to join Uncle to Jakarta," Sri told Uncle Herman.
"Well Sri in 2 days we'll be gone" said Uncle Herman.
Sri who heard it immediately permission to go home to Uncle Herman and told his mother that Sri and Uncle Herman would leave in 2 days.
That night Sri packed the items she would carry into a dull black bag, and the black color had turned gray. The clothes that Sri brought were used clothes given by her neighbors. For pity.
Sri who tried to say goodbye to his father, sewn his father's hand, while talking.
"Dad in two days Sri will go to Jakarta. Sri followed Herman's uncle there, "Sri tried to hold back her tears while saying goodbye to her father.
Sri's father just nodded which meant Father Sri agreed. And believe that his son will be successful in Jakarta.
The day of departure has arrived Sri was picked up by Uncle Herman at his home by using a car rented to the airport. the cost of his own departure is borne by Uncle Herman and later Sri will change when he has got a job there.
Sri's mother stood in front of the house and her sisters to accompany Sri's departure to Jakarta. After Sri was ready to put her bag and luggage into Sri's car came to her mother and hugged and kissed her mother's hand. And Sri's sisters also embraced her brother.
Uncle Herman told Sri to hurry as they chased the flight hours. Sri also took a car with her eyes still swollen. Uncle Herman stroked Sri's head. Uncle Herman knows how sad it is when we part with our parents. But all this for the sake of our happiness.
Sri looked at the scenery on the road through the car window. Sri is so tense when she sees an airplane, she usually only sees an airplane in the sky. And when it was close it turned out that the aircraft was very large.
