SUFFERING WITH IN-LAWS

SUFFERING WITH IN-LAWS
#319



 And finally the taxi arrived in front of the salon owned by Siska.


The salon looked deserted from the outside, probably because it was already night. There are no visitors anymore.


Some of the lights are dead. The gate was closed, but not all closed.


"Tante, whose house is this?" asked Kay with a frightened face. Obviously, a kid Kay's age is scared. Because this huge building was so quiet, there was no one to pass by there once, with dim lighting.


Kay woke up from her sleep, after the taxi stopped, because it had reached its destination.


"Don't Auntie say you want to take Kay home, come home?, this isn't Kay's home." Kay continued.


"We go down first yuk, baby. Later Aunty will be clear inside." said Sarah.


"But Kay was afraid of Auntie." whined Kay, refusing to be invited out of the taxi.


"Kay g can be afraid.Kqn there is aunty. Yuk, we're going down." take Sarah.


Want to not want to, Kay also came down with a forced. The tiny hand will not be out of Sarah's hand. Kay clasped Sarah's hand.


"Are you sure you want to get off?" asked the taxi driver.


"His salon's closed, ma'am. Just look at a lot of lights that are dead." continued the taxi driver.


"Yes, sir. We keep going down, because there's a friend inside." Kay replied with a smile. Then Sarah offered money for her taxi fare.


"Then I stay, Mom. And I'm careful" said the taxi driver.


"Thank you, Mom." continued the taxi driver after receiving the fare from Sarah.


Now Sarah and Kay walked towards the gate that was only slightly open. Sarah hoped there would still be a security guard.


Sarah tried to peek inside, to see the inside.


Sarah's heart was relieved, when she saw there was a Veni car inside.


"It means that Veni is right inside." murmured Sarah as she stroked her chest. Not denied, actually Sarah is also afraid and worried. He was afraid it was only the wits of Veni and Laras to trap him.


"What's Auntie doing?" asked Kay, who saw Sarah stroking her chest.


"There's nothing, Kay. That's my mom's car inside." said Sarah, pointing at Veni's car parked in the yard of Siska's salon.


With a definite step, Sarah held Kay's hand as she walked into the salon.


But Sarah's move this time to the security guard post. Because when he circulated the view to the security guard post, visible in the post there were still people.


The closer to the security guard station, the more clearly Sarah saw two men on guard.


"Assalamualaikum, sir." said Sarah.


"Waalaikumsalam" answered the two men simultaneously.


"Is there anything we can help you with, ma'am?" asked the security guard who was sitting on the bench. While the other was crouching on the floor and stood up because of the arrival of Sarah.


"I want to see Miss Siska, sir. Is Miss Siska inside?" asked Sarah with a polite smile.


"Oos... Ms Siska?" said the security guard, who was now standing from his squat.


"Like tonight Miss Siska can't be seen, Mom. Because tonight Miss Siska has an important meeting "the security guard continued.


"What brings the car to Siska's guest?" asked Sarah again, pointing at Veni's car. Sarah did indeed ask clearly, as all this was done solely for the sake of little Kay.


"Yes, Mom. But Ms. Siska had told us, If there should be no salon visitors who enter because .there is this meeting." Answer one of the guards.


"But actually, I came here, just to meet the owner of the car, sir. Can you take me there?' asked Sarah in a very polite voice.


While carrying a small flashlight, the security guard walked towards the main door of the salon.


Then when he opened the door, there were already a few people gathered inside.


To be sure, those people are in Veni's custody. Because Veni is currently sitting in the middle of some people who are circling it.


Veni is like a patient who is being adjudicated. Like a patient being held accountable.


"Now, I don't want to know Ven!!, you have to return my home certificate." Laras said in a very loud voice, so Sarah heard it.


"But the house certificate is not in me, Mom!, the certificate is in Siska." said Veni no less loud with Laras.


Veni was indeed very brave against Laras, he was like there was no fear of his fighting against his in-laws.


"Yes, you are responsible for all that. Take the certificate from Siska." Laras replied.


"The problem is, where might Siska give the certificate if there is no ransom" said Veni smoothly.


While Kay, very frightened to see and hear a loud voice that is mutually simple to corner and blame her mami.


"Mami...," Kay whined to Veni as her tears streamed down her cheeks.


Actually Sarah did not have the heart to see Kay witness events that should not be watched by children her age. Because it can be a lifelong trauma. But how else, Kay kept asking him that he would deliver her to his mother.


"Kay.!," said Veni as he turned toward the voice that called out to him.


All eyes are on Sarah and Kay.


"Sarah..," murmured Cloud. It was not her son who was called, but it was Sarah's name that came out of her mouth.


"Whether are you here?!!," the sound of Laras was very shrill in the ears of the person who was in that place.


"Are you here to laugh at me?!," Laras always thought badly of Sarah. When Sarah came here there was no such intention at all.


"I'm just here to take Kay with me" Sarah replied with a trembling mouth. Sarah was very angry to hear the allegations made by her former in-laws.


"That's just your excuse!!, I know you're here just to clap your hands, don't you see what happened to my family?!," Laras constantly accused Sarah.


"But you know, Sarah!!. I am not poor, money is nothing." Laras continued, smiling arrogantly at Sarah.


"Thank God then, Mom. I came here lazy, too. If it wasn't for Kay, there wouldn't have been the slightest bit in my mind to come here!!," Sarah replied with a jutek look.


"Mbak, this is Kay. I'm just here to take Kay. Now Kay is with you, ma'am. So I'm saying goodbye." Sarah told Veni.


Then Sarah walked to the exit. Sarah doesn't want to linger there.


"Sarah wait!!," called the Clouds.


Veni, who saw and heard the clouds calling Sarah, felt his heart ache.


Sarah stopped her steps, then looked back where the source of the voice came from.


"Who are you going home with?" asked Awan.


"Yourself" answered Sarah briefly, then turned her back and walked to the door.


"Wait!!," again the clouds stopped Sarah's footsteps.


"Do I need to drive you?" asked Awan.


"Mas ..!!," called Veni with feelings of jealousy and anger.
