Should Change Husband

Money tree

Jasmine was stunned for a few minutes in front of the ATM machine.

Seeing the amount of balance he has more and more days the number is getting thin.

Finally, he abandoned his intention to take his money.

With slow steps, Melati walked home.

In his mixed mind. He could only ponder, too much of a burden he had to carry on his own shoulders. Soon Gea will have to enter the Children's Park. Next month the baby he contains will be born but his savings balance does not seem to support.

Melati had to turn her brain so that Gea could get her right to go to school.

When he got home he saw Leo sitting down. Melati also approached him.

"Where else? It was early in the morning!" omelette Leo.

"Leo ..., this year Gea has to enter the Children's Park." Melati tried to open the conversation.

"Well quick too yeah.it looks like just yesterday she was born. Oh yes if this little one predicted the doctor when he was born?."

"Next month." replied Melati briefly.

"Oh. I'm out first." Leo kissed Melati's forehead and left.

Melati could only be speechless in a thousand languages not knowing anymore how to start a true conversation with her husband.

"Why the hell Leo is insensitive to the purpose of his speech.At that pretend insensitive?." upset mind Melati.

It felt like screaming and crying out loud.To release all the uneg-uneg buried in his heart.

Melati finally snatched her little bag. "Gea played it a long time ago. Come with mom for a minute." Then Gea deftly tidied up his toys first and walked over to Melati.

Melati smiled."Smart kid! " Jasmine squatted down a bit then kissed Gea. Then holding Gea waiting for the online ojek.

"Where are we going ma?" ask Gea.

"Guess where we're going?"

With his lips and index finger put on his temple Gea tried to think.

Melati who saw Gea's funny behavior laughed amusedly in her heart.

"Gea knows ma! Where we going."

Melati raised both her eyebrows.

"Oh yeah? Where's try?" ask Melati.

"Mommy must be going to Aunt Velly's house.' Guess Gea.

Melati also smiled bitterly.

How can you not guess it all this time we just go if not to the house of grandma ya to the house of Velly. But most often yes to the house of Velly.Be with Velly they go to the mall or to the park just buy Gea ice cream or play in the playground of children in the mall.

Never once did Leo invite his wife to have fun to just refresh or gather with the family to do something fun together .

Miris it feels like Melati's heart sees the condition of her wedding looks but feels foreign. Even Gea was like dealing with a stranger when there was his papa at home.

"Ma..mrs ... Gea is right, ma? Ma!" Gea tries to figure out the truth of his guess.

Awakened from his daydreams Melatipun replied "Yes! gea's guess is right. Gea is a great boy." replied Melati.

"Yeahh Gea's guess is right. We're going to Aunt Velly's! Later from the house of Aunt Velly buy ice cream yes ma?!" Gea was very excited to go to Velly's house

Melati just smiled bitterly.

At this time only Velly is where he complained only Velly who understands what is really happening in his household.

.....................................................

Arriving at Velly's house.

"Attante Velly... Aunt Velly!" get Gea while running to see Velly.

Troubled due to her distended stomach. Melati walked following her son who was so agile to move places.

"Good morning Vell.Sorry Gea has made noise early in the morning" said Melati.

The next second Melati was stunned. In front of him turned out to have stood Velly who was holding Gea and beside him stood a figure of a handsome man tall and slightly dirty term Melati called a thin brewok.

"Hi you ... Tian's? IPA kid, right ?" ask Melati.

Christian just smiled faintly and nodded.

"Hi Mel, how are you ? " ask Christian while extending his hand.

"Well." replied Melati welcoming Christian's hand.

" Sit Mel ... Tian." Velly invited his two guests to sit down .

"Gea play first with bi Tari. Later when the affairs of Aunt and Mama finished we buy ice cream. Okay, pretty boy." With a high five on Gea

"Okay Aunt Velly!" Then Gea also ran to play with bi Tari.

"Sweet and smart kid" Christian said.

"Mel, Tian is planning to open a dance sanggar but he is confused to start it.I said just cooperation with you.Because you also once managed a dance sanggar right?" explained Velly.

"Lho Tian is also a Vell dancer."

"Yes he was a little bit of a story about that . So you guys know each other, right? It's better if you can work together to build a dream studio." explained Velly

"Yes Mel I have long had the ambition of having my own dance studio but if to take care of it myself honestly I can't I need someone like you who has experience also in taking care of a hangar." tian said.

Melati looks doubtful. "Work and dance again. Actually this is the most fun thing to be able to work while channeling a hobby . Moreover, I'm in need of a lot of money but...Will Leo agree?" inner Jasmine.

"You think Mel used to, don't need to be answered now. This is my business card. If you have the answer, call me yes. Hopefully the good news I will receive later" Christian gave his business card to Melati.

"Well, I'll think about it." replied Melati.

"Okay then I say yes.I wait for the good news .Vell thanks ya.'" Then Christian steps away from Velly's house.

Christian's After. Velly saw his best friend was thinking seriously while holding a business card given by Christian.

"What are you thinking?" ask Velly.

"This seems to be the answer to my prayer this morning. But .."

"What else is it? Did your husband do it again?" ask Velly furious with various acts of Leo.

Then Melatipun recounted the state of his salt that began to thin. Her husband never gave her a living both for himself and his son. Though soon their household needs will increase with the birth of his sister Gea.

"Nah means this is the answer to all your turmoil. This is your path. Take Mel a chance won't come a second time. This job is suitable for you. In accordance with your skills and your hobbies and also you can bring children to the studio while you work.Tian no problem for it will be prepared a special room that you can use for the room where the baby you and Gea will take a day's rest" said Velly

"But Leo..."

"Why else with him?"

"He forbids me to work."

"Mell! Wake up! You realize no?! Forgetting who will meet all your needs and who will your children need? Is she? Or you alone? Huh!"

"If your husband is able to fulfill all his responsibilities as a good husband and father. May he forbid you to work, but the truth is that he is negligent right?Remember the future of your children." said Velly.

Melatipun nodded. Then he went back to look at Tian's business card.

Then he pressed several numbers according to what was listed on the business card.

.................................................

The first day Melati started her work. Melati asked for help Velly tipped Gea at his house because Sanggar is still renovating in some rooms.

With passion and hope for a better life while working with totality.

"For Mel, how is it today?" greet Christian.

"Alhamdulillah smoothly ! There's already ten kids signed up." Melati reported.

"Wow cool! Thank you Mel" said Christian.

" Tian Together."

"Oh yeah where's Gea?" ask Christian.

"Gea I left while at Velly's house." explained Melati.

"Lho pity Mel. How not to be invited all over here." said Tian.

"It's still a renovation. There is still a lot of dust" said Melati

"Oh yes, sorry Mel has not had the experience" Tian said as he scratched his non-itchy hair.

"It's okay Tian. Learn a little bit first, especially if you are married and have your own children to know." joked Melati.

Christian just smiled haggardly .

..........................................................

(Evening at Melati's house)

*Where all day? I came home this afternoon You're not home.?" leo asked suspiciously.

"I work in the sanggar now my money is running low. Next month his younger brother Gea was born. And Gea is also time for school.You never thought of it all. Where can we get enough of all that." Melati tries to open her husband's mind

"By what the hell are you.Suami go home instead of made coffee or what cake. Even nyerocos like a train.Bikin not just hard." Then take his jacket and leave.

"Oh yeah tomorrow I need 500 grand. Prepare yes!' Leo's orders.

"Crazy you Leo. I told you my money was thinning.Make the needs of children less! It's your money anywhere.Never once you meet our needs but always ask for money and money again. You realize you are not the husband and father of children!' jasmine Protest.

Leo pushed Melati's body violently until it was cornered on the wall.

"Look yeah! if I need money, you have to prepare! Don't talk too much! Especially if you are already working, right? if you want to keep working prepare the money I asked for earlier. Don't be stingy with your husband!" Then Leo just left Melati.

Melati could only sigh.And cried lamenting her fate.
