SUFFERING WITH IN-LAWS

Using External Rules

"But if the Princess lives with her mother, I can also give her money for all her needs?" said Mas Bima.

"Yes could have been, my mom. But you're sure your ex-wife won't manipulate Princess's needs?" I asked.

"Yes he means to manipulate it, for example, for the school fee of the Princess should be one million rupiah, but your ex-wife said her one million five hundred thousand rupiah. Do you want to be like that? not that I'm bad at it, but honestly I don't accept that. Because I have rights with your money too. Because I'm your wife, mas."

"Do you understand what I mean, Bima?" I asked.

Mas Bima nodded his head, I'm sure he was also very familiar with what I said earlier.

"Better now you take a shower, keep us eating. Because I'm so hungry." I said, stroking my stomach.

"Yes, Sarah." Mas Bima immediately stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

"Oh yes, one more. You'd better take it after this and ask him why he doesn't like me." And Mas Bima nodded his head again.

Now he has flushed his body with water, because from here the water from the shower rattled.

I also prepared a change of clothes and towels for Bima mas. And immediately go out to prepare clean dishes on the dining table.

"Kean, hungry already, right?, this abis dad finished bathing, we ate together huh?," Kean looks still fun with his colored pencil.

"Yes amma. It just so happens that Kean is also hungry." Kean replied while holding his stomach.

And now mas Bima has come out of the room, has changed her clothes with the clothes that I had prepared earlier.

"Which kids, baby?" asked Bima.

"Before a while, Sarah called." I replied in a step to Kean's room. Because from my current position, Kean's room is the closest.

"Darling, let's eat. I've been waiting for you." take me.

"Ready amma. Kean clean this up first." Kean replied as he tidied up his drawing book and color pencil. After being organized, he went to the dining table.

"Put, let's eat. I'm waiting for you." I knocked on the door of his tightly closed room.

"Kenyang!!," replied the Princess without opening her bedroom door.

"Basar has no manners" I murmured inwardly. Honestly, her behavior made me very angry.

Without a word, I left him. Whatever he is, eat or not.

And it turns out Kean has been sitting sweetly on the dining table chair with mas Bima. From where I stood, they both seemed to enjoy the food I served.

Instantly when I saw the two of them enjoying my cooking, my aggravation instantly disappeared.

"Where's amma cooking, son?" I asked Kean as I shifted my chair.

"Enak amma's. Amma Ter the Best Deh." Kean raised two thumbs up his hand, and pointed it at me.

"Thank you, baby." I replied as I kissed the tip of Kean's head.

"But baby, there is no comment from my father." I whispered but deliberately whispered to be heard by Bima.

"My dear son, when the hell did your cooking ever fail?!," said mas Bima while glancing and smiling at me.

"Where is the Princess?" asked Bima.

"She was full, my mother." I replied.

"Kok full?, did he not complain of hunger?" muttered Bima.

Mas Bima left her food, and she stood up and walked towards the Princess' room.

Geck!

Geck!

Geck!

"Daughter, let's eat!!, he said was hungry." call Bima mas while knocking on the door of his room.

"Yes, dad. Wait for the Princess, the Princess will eat soon." the Princess' reply was clearly heard in my ears. What a different attitude he showed to Bima.

Then the Princess opened her bedroom door and walked out towards the dining table.

Again, the irritation in the heart came out. This is all because of the attitude of the girls of Bima.

"Eating a lot Put!, did not you complain of hunger" said Mas Bima again feed the food into his mouth.

"Yes, yeah." answered the Princess very sweet on Bima mas.

Now the four of us ate very quietly, there was only the sound of plates, spoons and forks colliding with each other.

Because it feels so lazy, if I have to mince words to the Princess.

Now everyone has finished eating, and Bima asked the Princess to stay in her chair. While Kean was told to go into the room to continue coloring his pictures.

"Put, I want to talk to you. So you stay sitting there and you are also Sarah" said mas Bima by looking into the eyes of the Princess. The princess was frightened by the look of her father's eyes. And at the end of his sentence he looked at my face.

"Yes" replied the Princess, looking down on her head.

I'm the one who's piled up dirty dishes, I put them in the sink immediately. And immediately return to the dining table, in accordance with the request of Bima mas earlier.

"Daughter, explain to me! Why do you behave like people have no manners to Mama Sarah?,"

"And why every mother Sarah who told you, you must reject her violently!," continued Bima.

"That's because the Princess. It seems like he is scared. It seems there is something he is hiding. So that he does not continue his words.

"Tell me because of what, Put?, Mama Sarah's been so kind to you. But why do you behave like a man who has no such manners!!,"

"Please don't embarrass me for Sarah's mom. Because with your attitude like this to mama Sarah, as if this father never taught you about manners." continued Bima.

Here I deliberately silent, because I want to know how to mas Bima advise the daughter of his child.

"That's because of the Princess..... The princess is afraid that the mother does not love the Princess." replied the Princess with her face still down.

"meaning? what does it have to do with being polite in fear that your mother doesn't love you?, I really don't understand."

"Mother said to the Princess, if the Princess did not comply with her words. All the access that the Princess uses to contact the mother will be blocked" said the Princess in a soft voice.

"So that's your mother's threat?" Bima looks very emotional.

"And actually, the Princess is also forbidden to live here with Sarah's mother. She said it hurt her heart to see father and daughter living with another woman."

"Therefore, my mother forbade me to obey Sarah's mother." he continued.

"Keep, you obey your mother's words?" asked Bima. And the Princess nodded her head.
