" Dad, let's go to the park. Adam's brother went to the garden. I also want to go" Pinta Ilmi
" You don't know if you don't have any money. Don't follow them they're rich you're poor." Ketus Galang's.
Yumna who heard Galang's words, immediately felt like her heart was showered with thousands of daggers.
If he did not want to take Ilmi there could not he say good.
" Don't talk to Ilmi like that, she's a kid. He still doesn't understand." Yumna.
" It is precisely because he is a child, so it must be taught so that he understands if his parents, are people who have nothing aka poor." Galang.
Yumna fell silent it was useless to also argue with Galang.
Galang will certainly have his own arguments, because Galang never wanted to lose if arguing.
" Yuk Ilmi we buy snacks in front of this will."
Ilmi pouting.
" Let's go tomorrow if you already have our money in the park." Yumna Woo
" Not be promised so that he doesn't become spoiled." Galang.
Yumna still seduced Ilmi to buy snacks in the store in front, so that Ilmi no longer grieved because her father did not invite her to the park.
After hard work persuaded finally Ilmi want.
On the way to the front stall, Yumna tried to hold back her tears, so as not to fall.
A few days after that incident,
" It's 300 grand, saved up until I get some more money. I'm tired of looking for money so don't waste it."
" I've been trying to save money but I want to do it again, sometimes the price of groceries goes up."
" Yes smart you set it up."
Yumna fell silent, she chose not to argue.
" Let's go to the park." Take Galang to Ilmi.
" Nooray..."
Ilmi was very enthusiastic.The three of them then walked towards the park.
At night, after Ilmi slept, Galang approached Yumna. And ask for his rights.
With mixed feelings Yumna served her husband. That unification, no longer made Yumna excited.
..
" If you have more sustenance buy bed linen, I only have two sheets and one color has faded. Kan bed linen that was left in Jember " Yumna said.
Steady just silence.
Until a few weeks later Galang handed over 5 pieces of money to Yumna.
" Can I spend this money on bed linen?"
" It's up to you."
Yumna then started looking for cheap bed linen in the orange app, after finding cheap bed linen Yumna bought 2 pcs bed linen in different stores in the orange app.
" Ilmi would love it if I bought her a bedsheet with animal pictures."
" Mother.." Call Ilmi.
" Yes, baby?"
" Will you pay?"
" Yes, later the gadget is taken yes, because later the mother wants Istighosah, so we do not have to go home and pray magrib in the mosque only. Later Ilmi can accompany Azriel playing lying waiting for mother and aunt Eka praying."
" Good mother."
" I want a fishing race first." Galang.
" I'll put the key on the meter. Because I'm going straight to Istighosah, so I don't go home first."
" Yes." Yeah."
In the afternoon, as usual, Yumna always prepared the needs of Ilmi to go njai.
" Where's the husband?, any progress?" Ask Eka at the break.
" Yes still, sometimes good sometimes relapse of the disease."
" Haha, the cake our husband asked for in rukiyah ya." Kekeh Eka's.
" Yes it seems so. Can it be done in Rukiyah?"
" Maybe. Eh, come with Istighosah, right."
" Follow. I think I'm waiting here for you."
" Good dong So we can pray Maghrib congregation."
" Yes." Yeah."
In the evening, after performing Maghrib prayers.
Yumna and Eka prepared to take part in a weekly ceremony held at the mosque where Ilmi taught.
Yumna's heart was so calm, reciting the holy verse and listening to the chanting of the holy verse. Makes his mind feel clearer.
On the sidelines, the recitation of the holy verse. Yumna held out her hands in prayer.
" O Allah give our families ample sustenance. Open the door of my husband's heart, make his heart soft. Give me infinite patience and fortitude, strengthen Me in the face of every trial you give."
A few days later...
" I borrowed 200,000 to send it to the village, later after the work is done I'll replace it immediately." Galang
" It's not that I don't want to lend but that my money is only 200,000. If I lend it to you then my money runs out altogether and I have no money to shop for, and also for Ilmi's snacks." replied Yumna.
" You're the way it is, the feeling just yesterday I gave you 500,000 is now up. That's why if you have the money don't always buy something."
" What did I buy?, I didn't buy anything, did I?"
" That's what you bought those sheets?"
" Don't I ask you for permission before, why am I angry now?"
" Well, there's no point arguing with you. You're always wasteful you can't save."
Then go somewhere.
God, what's my fault.didn't I ask permission whether I should buy bed linen or not?, besides if it wasn't for the old bed sheet, I wouldn't buy anymore. Inner Yumna.
After the incident, Yumna restarted the online sales business as a dropship that he had once abandoned.
Yumna began to play social media, until one night..
" Just keep playing HP but don't make money for anything."
" I'm trying too."
" Find a job there what kek sales kek that make money.was at your job just sleep and play HP only."
" If I work outside then who will accompany Ilmi?"
" Who am I, of course?"
" You've always scolded science, you're willing to take care of it." Yumna.
" Huh, by the way, you're always complicated. People talking about work can talk about something else."
Then he started to get busy with his own device.
The next day, when Galang just came home from fishing.
" Yes, the rice is gone." Yumna.
" Lo, what else can be sold to buy rice. Work is lonely. My debt to my sister is also a lot."
Yumna. Go to the bathroom, and take a shower.
Until a short time later, Galang's brother came to give work to Galang.
Galang left Yumna without speaking.
Drrtt drrttt drrrtt
Yumna's phone rang, a video call from her mother.
" Hello my grandson Ilmi?"
" Immi was playing at her friend's house.."
" why are you crying?"
Yumna.
" A fight with your husband again?"
Yumna never told her husband about her problems to his mother, maybe her mother knew from Yumna's grandfather.
Yumna's grandfather may have heard frequent bickering between Yumna and Galang, while Yumna and Galang were staying at Jember's house.
" Say what makes you cry?" Ask the mother.
Yumna, who could not hold back her tears, immediately cried and told her what had happened a few days before and today.
" You were told to go home just don't want to, you've been at home alone your sister's friendin let me work for you and Ilmi."
Yumna was silent, still crying.
" Yes tomorrow I will send to buy rice. Don't cry anymore. I just hang up the phone, call again if Ilmi has come "
" Okay, ma'am.."
Tut, video call is turned off.
" It's not that I don't want to go home, but I want to go home. But I'm afraid that if I go home Ilmi will be taken from me. Meanwhile, I have no parents to defend me." Lirih Yumna's.
Then Yumna tries to communicate with Rimba, and the other friend. Joking with her.
That's what Yumna used to do to eliminate her disappointment. And eliminate red eyes due to too much crying
A few months earlier...
" Well, should we move the cost, it's very hot. pity Ilmi."
" Yes, we plan to find a new cost, but must be patient. You know my job is quiet. Eating is hard."
" Sell me my necklace."
" But you won't have any more jewelry."
" Hmm, okay."
After Galang drove Yumna to sell her jewelry, they decided to stop by the boarding house of Brother Galang.
" Where are you?" Say sister-in-law when Yumna, get to her boarding house.
" By buying Ilmi's needs."
They also talked until...
" She said there was an empty cost, belonging to this boarding mother as well, only on the xxx street."
" Really?"
" Yes, do you want to see it?"
" Come on." Yumna Enthusiastic.
" Here, let Ilmi be here, while you go see the boarding room." Said brother-in-law.
Galang and Yumna also, directly to the address given by Mr. Wayan, an accomplice, as well as a confidant of the boarding mother.
" How do you like it?" Ask Galang when they have arrived at the boarding house.
" Good, broad. The place is cold too"
" So?, do you want to move here?" Ask Galang.
" Can."
"Later in the afternoon we come again to clean it up."
****************
Today is a busy day. After packing the goods² in the old place, and arrange it in a new place.
Yumna and Galang decided to eat outside, so that they could quickly rest.
Convenient boarding places, and of course there are some neighbors who are deaf, and like to be troublemakers. But that's a problem for Yumna while they're not overdoing it.
Until it does not feel baby Ilmi is 13 months old. This means that it has been almost 6 months they occupy a new boarding house.
" Well, the rice's out, the gas's out." Yumna.
" What else do I want to sell?, I can't possibly owe my brother any more, I owe 5 million, just for the meal." Ketus Galang
" Oh yes, this necklace is for sale. To eat." Yumna na took off one of her remaining jewelry and gave it up for sale to her 2x.
" Yes come on, I'll take you."
After going to the jewelry store, Yumna and Galang went to one of the supermarkets, to buy basic necessities.
" I'm going fishing." Galang.
" why do you always fish."
" Of course to eliminate the saturated." Speak of the Galang who then passed away from home.
" Where is Ilmi's father?, fishing again." Said Hepi, next door neighbor to Yumna's room.
" Yes, every day is fishing." Yumna.
Hepi was a neighbor and a shared friend of Yumna.
Hepi's son who is also the same age as Ilmi makes his two become close quickly.
" Is there no work?" Ask Hepi
" I don't know, all I know is that he's always turned down a job on the grounds that it's cheap, the boss is chatty, this one is, that's it."
" Patience.."
" Hmm, yes, yes."
Soon, Eka, the new resident of the boarding house, arrives and joins Yumna and Hepi.
" Hey, where are Ilmi and Akbar?" Eka asked the son of Yumna and Hepi.
" They're playing inside" Hepi said pointing to her room.
They also talk, exchange stories about each other, talk about life experiences still. Its content is not much different from the life of Yumna.
..........
" Nda, let's go play to my sister's." Speak at night.
" For what?, we just got from there 2 days ago."
" Of course to ask for a job."
"All right."
After returning from the house of his sister-in-law, Yumna and Galang stopped at a cafe across the street, because there was someone calling Galang.
" Hello boss, how are you." Sapa Galang's.
" Hey Galang. I'm looking for you, it turns out you've moved costs ya." Say that man.
" Yes, I moved on Jalan xxx"
" Oh yeah, get out of here."
" What's the matter boss?" Ask Galang.
" This, I want to make this ring, can I?" Showing pictures to Galang.
" I'm sorry boss, I work a lot."
" Ah, cooking can't be done for that." Pinta the man.
" I'm sorry boss, if the job is from the store, I don't dare to procrastinate."
" Yes already then."
" OKay okay. Excuse me boss. Again sorry." Galang said then passed away leaving the man.
" why not take it?" Ask Yumna on the way home.
" Huh, make it difficult, the cost is cheap. not balanced as tired." Grumpy Galang.
" But alhamdulilah no income, rather than 'no."
" You've been quiet. You know my job, you know it's just spending my money."
Yumna chose silence instead of continuing to argue, which would make her even more hurt.
A few days later...
" This, money for shopping." Galang gave Yumna three pieces of red money.
" Can I buy bed linen?, we only have 2 sheets, the one color is also faded.
" It's up to you."
After getting permission to use the money given by Galang, Yumna began looking for cheap bed linen through the orange application.
Three days later....
" Well the pempes same token his list runs out, when he buys."
" Yes, buy it."
" The money."
" Don't you give me the money, why ask again." Ketus Galang's.
" Lo, then buy bed linen. The rest is for shopping"
" Huh, basic. Make it not wasteful. You always have been. Just got the money already spent. Nought.. In thrift, don't spend it." Galang gave 2 pieces of red money.
" This sent it to my mother. Ilmi let me take care of her account number I sent to your phone." Galang said while giving some more money to Yumna.
Hix....
Yumna cried on the way, Galang even willingly gave some money to his mother, but a little lecture when giving money to her.
Yumna remembered very well, how the attitude of Galang changed, when Yumna wanted to send money to her sister. Though it is Yumna's own money from the results of saving when selling online. Galang thinks Yumna used her money to send it to her sister.
" This.." Yumna gave proof of delivery to Galang.
" I'm going fishing."
Galang..
Drtt...
" Hello ma'am?"
" Have you bought a bike?, I've sent you some money." The voice that was none other than Yumna's mother.
" Yes mom, I'll buy it."
" Don't be long, then hunt the money into use for shopping."
" Yes ma'am, after this I'm looking for a bike." Yumna then turned off the phone.
The flashback
" Hello grandma's granddaughter how are you?" Mother's voice through video call.
" It's fine. ohya today I'm exactly 1 year old lo." Yumna spoke by imitating the voice of a child.
" What do you want for a gift?"
" Anything." If I can buy a bike, I can take him on the road, without having to carry it."
" How much is a bike?"
" Maybe 500thousand."
" Wish grandma a lot of windfall yes, later grandma send money to buy a bike."
" Amin, thank you, Grandma."
flashback off's.
...
" Immi's hot baby." Yumna said as she touched Ilmi's forehead.
" Let's buy a fever compress, then we buy a bike"
While riding Ilmi, Yumna walked towards the bicycle shop which was approximately 700 meters from her boarding house.
