Surviving Although Difficult

Chapter 9: he is told to cook

"just enter?" he answered again and I opened the door.

It's always like that, it's easy to talk, and it's hard to laugh.

"how do you sleep," he asked as I began to tidy up his bed, while the mas tiyas were already sitting in wheelchairs.

"god is so unique to this one of your creatures, asking expressionlessly makes me want to just run."

"Alhamdulillah good, mas, the wake was not bad." answered I tried to busy myself, I was not strong if I saw his gaze, he said,

"what did you cook?" ask again, solid, short and clear.

"cuman yyur kale same fried tempe mas, because the existence is also just that."

"is that good too?" he said it made me stop for a moment.

"did you already eat, do you know that vegetables are good?" my brother is still staring at him.

"have I eaten with mom and zean, sorry the vegetables ran out,?"

"it's okay, thank God if you like it." I smile at him.

"you'll cook again,! It was less vegetables,"

"when only kale, kok samapi ask for more."

"yes mas, but in the refrigerator was finished, so I was just cooking it," I said honestly, because it was all that was decorating the refrigerator.

"mother is shopping in front, later if mom comes in, you can cook again with mom, if you need to just cook, then it feels different if mom is cooking."

Obviously, then out of the room.

"what's wrong with that frozen man, what's so good about my cooking that he doesn't want his mom to cook, well, the cold man got me in trouble" I muttered back to clean up his room.

I went back to the kitchen when it was done cleaning, I saw my mother was already in the kitchen, I approached her because mas tiyas had asked me to cook, I was in the kitchen,

"mom let sulis cook, mother just sit," I said take over the vegetables in her hand.

"alright, mom wants to eat your cooking too" he replied smiling kindly at me.

"lis, you can ask, but you can't wait." said mom sitting next to me.

"cool mom,! What do you want to ask?" I said I was still cleaning vegetables.

"why do you want to marry a mother's child, is she not paralyzed, you are still a girl and still young too, while tiyas have been married, do you not want to find a better soul mate, at least look for the perfect guy who can stand up straight for you in the mopaminan."

I stopped my activity to clear up every word mom said, there was pain that I felt remembering how difficult times I was during my time at the bude house.

There, let alone ask what I want, no one even cares about my screams and cries, only the pact always strengthens me hoping that one day his wife and son can see my whereabouts.

In fact, they were closing their eyes when this proposal came and deliberately made me an exchange.

But different in this house, the mother actually thought about whether my decision was right or not.

"make what a mother who is able to stand, not necessarily he is good, if mas tiyas can make me a queen in his heart, then I ridho be his legs to walk, and walk, after all, perfection belongs only to God, people who are able to stand are not necessarily without flaws, and people who are paralyzed are not necessarily far from the word perfect, for example, mas tiyas, despite sitting in a wheelchair does she always make things difficult for mom."

Mother was silent without answering my words,

"your mother came to the house with the permission of Allah, and I received with the permission of Allah as well, in fact until now God has not presented a raza hesitant to refuse."

After feeling calmer mom returned to smiling, ah really is an amazing woman,

"thank you."

"what's mom for?" come back with vegetables in front of me.

"for accepting the mother's child and not taking issue with the condition of our house" she said, almost crying.

"sama ma'am, I also thank my mother and family for receiving me here before becoming a wife of mas tiyas" I said as gently as possible I was afraid to make her cry again.

"yes, I'm just as happy as you are, so I have a talk,."

I just smiled in response with a nod.

"mother? Sulis wants to ask too, actually since last night I want to ask, but Sulis is still embarrassed,"

"you want to ask lis, why worry so."

I do feel worried about my arrival, I am afraid if the citizens are angry I live here.

"would you just contract, ma'am,?"

"contract? Why do you want to contract if you don't like living here, is it because mom's house is ugly."

I shook my head quickly before I misunderstood too far.

"mom..isn't that so mom? Sulis just not nice in the eyes of the citizens here, in this house there are two single men, if sulis lives in?"

"stay here quietly, no one will dare to tease you let alone speak ill of you"

Not finished talking, mas tiyas already cut me first,

"but mas?"

"don't think of anything. We're getting married in two days, so as soon as possible you'll be part of this family."

"two days, huh,? not too fast, though,! how the tiyas make preparations, even if the show is not too grand, it will still take time."

My lyrics mom, mom's the same! just nodding in agreement to mas tiyas, I just resigned what would happen if the citizens did a demo on this family.

"yes it's up to you guys, Sulis is only afraid if there's a problem coming from outside there."

"everything will be fine, just trust your future husband so he gets it right, you just need to get ready to get married."

Said my mother and I nodded.

Vegetables that I have cleaned directly my cucumber again as before, the difference was now kale vegetables broccoli and mushrooms, both I mixed to have a different taste.

While waiting for the vegetables to ripen, I beat five grains and then add leeks and some spices, I mix also with long beans that have been sliced thin.

All I stir until mixed well, finished with the vegetable eggs were cooked, I move it to another place and wash the pan because I want to use again to fry the eggs.

Mother and mas tiyas were still at the table watching me from earlier, until both dishes were cooked and I put on the dining table where mom and mas tiyas could not be seen me.

"wha.mom became hungry again see the omlet of eggs, the wealth is good there are vegetables" said the mother took the plate that I had prepared first.
