Remember Me, My Husband!

Chili Powder

After the embarrassing incident just now, Laura simply stared at the dish before her and did not touch it at all. His appetite suddenly disappeared because of the action of Bik Wiwin who dismantled his boast.

“Why not eat?” ask Arlan. After finding Laura silent since.

“Iya, Mas. This is just eating.” Laura smiled doubtfully, then grabbed the spoon beside the soup bowl. For a moment the look in his eyes turned to Arlan and Maysha in turn. The annoyance peaked when Arlan occasionally stole a glance at Maysha.

In Laura's view, she is much prettier, younger and more modern than Maysha. The all-covered clothes Maysha wore also impressed tacky. Then what was so interesting that Arlan had to steal a chance to look at her?

Laura was completely inexhaustible. However, a moment later he reviewed the smirk, while spooning the soup into the mouth. Suddenly his pair of eyes bulged, both sides of his cheeks were red. The soup that had just entered his mouth gushed out. The woman coughed with a hot sensation that burned her tongue.

“It's so spicy the soup!” He shook his hands in front of his mouth. Then with a very fast movement grabbing a glass of water.

Arlan and Maysha looked at him slightly in wonder.

“Why, Laura?” arlan asked looking at the grimacing Laura.

“Why does this soup taste so spicy? My tongue's about to burn, Mas!”

Arlan stared at the bowl of soup before Laura, then glanced at Maysha questioningly. “But the soup is not spicy at all. Maybe it's just you, Laura.”

“But the soup I ate was indeed spicy, Mas. If you don't believe just try it yourself!” Laura returned to drink a glass of water. His eyes were red and watery. Also with her lips looking thickened in a matter of minutes.

“But I don't use chili powder or pepper. So it's impossible if the soup is spicy,” Maysha denies.

“If you don't use chili powder why does it taste like this?” Laura squealed in disbelief. “Mas, you know that I'm allergic to chili powder, right?”

Seeing his wife's panic, Arlan tries to calm down. "Please calm down, Laura."

"How am I supposed to calm down under these circumstances, Mom? Try tasting the soup!"

Arlan grabbed Laura's bowl of soup and tasted it. Sure enough, the taste of the soup was indeed very spicy, even too spicy. Arlan immediately grabbed a glass of water and sipped it.

“Yes right, spicy, Mas?” laura asked annoyed.

A suspicious look was immediately directed at Arlan and Laura to Maysha. Laura who felt unfairly treated immediately stood right in front of Maysha.

“Did Mbak Maysha accidentally put a lot of chili powder into my food?” the accusation is full of wrath.

“I did not put anything into your food,” reply Maysha, still with a calm attitude. Because I don't feel like adding anything to Laura's food at all. Especially chili powder.

Instead of being calm, Laura was even more fiery. Next to his hand moved rubbing the clear liquid flowing on the cheeks. “Then why my food can be spicy? Ah, I know! Ma'am Maysha doesn't like me being here, does she? If it is like that there is no need to expel me in this way!”

Hearing the accusatory sentence, Maysha stood up and left the chair. As much as possible, he refrained from getting angry.

“You don't just accuse, yes!”

"I am just accusing? There's clearly evidence. Ma'am Maysha's cooking this soup, right?" Laura laughed with tears. "I didn't expect Maysha to be this bad. Free Ma'am wear a hijab if his heart is rotten!"

The atmosphere is getting tense. Arlan who had heard the debate had stood up. “Enough! Laura, Maysha, you guys shut up!” peekkik Arlan's.

Silence dominated for a few seconds. All hunch. Only Laura's sobs could be heard in the dining room.

As much as possible Arlan held back. “Who cooked this soup?”

“I, Mom! But I didn't add anything at all to his soup.”

"Bull$hitt! If it's not Maysha's mother, then who's going to put the chili powder in?" sambar Laura's.

"You shut up, Laura!" Arlan pressed the sound. Then highlight Maysha suspiciously. “Maysha, if you don't put anything into Laura's food, then why is the soup spicy?”

That question left Maysha silent. He took a deep breath in order to unravel the anger and disappointment lodged in the heart. Arlan's words seemed to have cornered her as well.
