"oalaaahh yesa gapapa kok Bu, we understand.we also if we have a daughter-in-law as good as Rita we will certainly take care of her when approaching the lahiran, are not the mothers?" answer one of the other mothers.
"iyaa Bu, Alhamdulillah hope the delivery will be smooth" said Saidah's mother made me and her mother simultaneously guaranteed.
the mothers of the area here are rarely gathered in the houses of nearby residents, most of them will gather only when there are official activities or events held by local RT.
"thank you, ladies, for the prayer" I replied after listening silently to their conversation.
"iyaa both mbak Rita. mari Bu, mbak Rita we say back home first it's noon" said Bu Saidah who was embraced by others.
"iyaiyaa ma'am, come" the mother replied with a smile showing her rows of white teeth after the mothers had left, saying, my mother and I still enjoy the morning sun by sunbathing while massaging my feet slowly which began to feel sore.
"what about rit?" mother asked me, I who heard it turned my eyes to face my mother.
"iyaa Bu, started to feel sore even though the road is a little" I replied as I continued to massage my feet.
"iyaa gapapa, it's still natural really. until our house soaks warm water yes let it be more relaxed" replied the mother made me nod my head assenting.
"lucky Rita has in-laws as good as mother, not wrong Rita chose the Bayu mas.thank you ma'am" said Rita hugged her mother-in-law with affection.
"sama-sama rit, mother is also lucky Bayu chose a gentle and kind woman like you" replied the mother-in-law returning Rita's embrace by rubbing Rita's back.
"you know rit, used to be the same mother of two daughters mother was never compact not like boyfriend Bayu. you know why?" mother asked me who shook my head after letting go of our embrace.
"ngga ma'am" I replied with a look of astonishment.
"hehehe we both don't like women because she's not much better than you" replied the mother-in-law making Rita smile.
"why is Mom?"ask Rita curiously.
"once, Bayu's girlfriend once blatantly surged the presence of Bayu's mother and two sisters. did not even hesitate to tell this and that when she was invited to play at home by Bayu, she was invited to play by Bayu, the mother who does not like the nature of the woman also forbids Bayu to continue their relationship.even the mother to threaten Bayu will match her with the woman's choice if she does not want to let go of the woman" answered the mother-in-law telling me when the Bayu mas ever brought a woman to his house.
"in the past, our house was not the house we currently live in. we used to live in the city next door, then moved here following Bayu who also moved to work here. mom sold mom's house there and bought this house, coupled with Bayu's savings.and we know what rhythm Bayu's decision?" asked the mother-in-law to look at me who shook my head.
"Bayu actually got disappointed when he met his girlfriend in the apartment that his girlfriend had, Bayu caught his girlfriend cheating on him with another man." replied the mother-in-law who made me stunned for a moment. I widened my eyes make the mother-in-law chuckle.
"hehehe why do your eyes widen like that rit?" asked the mother-in-law for a moment to get me back into early fashion.
"gapapa Ma, just surprised. then how did the response of Bayu when it was Mom?" rita asked curiously.
"yes, like that, who does not get angry and disappointed his lover mingled with others? even Bayu had a trauma before he met you" replied the mother-in-law.
"it seems that when Bayu mas met me, he was an ordinary person aja Bu. not neko-neko and also yes like people in general" I replied in wonder.
"iyaa that's Bayu, he is good at hiding his wounds alone, even though at that time he did not like the name of a partner after he knew it felt betrayed, even though at that time he did not like his name, but after he met you he slowly began to change.no longer show resist with a sense in his heart that is present again, you who accidentally healed the wounds that exist in the rhythmic Bayu. even though the mother had resigned if Bayu would be alone forever, because he was very anti-love at that time" replied the mother-in-law looking straight ahead with teary eyes.
"Thank God, it may be God's destiny, ma'am, shouldn't there be a painful failure for happiness? it was fate that was outlined Bu, Alhamdulillah mas Bayu met Rita who was an ordinary person but Bayu mas able to accept Rita even I love Rita very much. Thanks to you Mom" I replied hugging my mother-in-law.
"iyaa equally dear, may your household and baby sakinah mawadah and warahmah. mother is also grateful because soon there will be additional members of our family" said the mother-in-law with an expanding smile.
"iyaa Bu Alhamdulillah, forgive Rita or mas Bayu if there is a mistake Bu. forgive Rita if she has not become a good daughter-in-law for mother" said Rita with teary eyes facing her mother-in-law.
"my dear, a mother will always forgive her children's mistakes" replied the mother-in-law who made me smile.
"it seems like it's getting late Mom, we go home yuk.
