Take me home to Makassar



"Vano why hasn't the food been eaten, dear?" ask Mother Hesti to her son who from earlier only pitted, the food on his plate.


"Did Mas El, not like the food that Yumna cooked,?" yumna asked, glancing at her husband.


Instead of answering Yumna's question, Vano wanted to get away from the table by running his own wheelchair, because he did not want to linger beside his wife.


"Let me help Mas" said Yumna to stand up.


"No, I can do it myself" he refused.


"Vano, if you don't like it, at least you appreciate your wife's effort to wake up early and cook for all of us." Hesti's mother rebuked her son because he felt really bad about his daughter-in-law.


"It's okay Ma.. next time I'll ask Mas's favorite menu, El, first." Tasya.


"You heard that Vano, what your wife said,!" scold the Mama again.


But Vano can only be silent without saying a word he only focuses on his Goal, Ntag what makes.


Yumna also stopped her meal and said goodbye to accompany her husband, although with a dislike feeling Vano was forced to agree to Yumna's invitation to go out for a walk around the backyard, which is indeed the scenery is so beautiful with the view of green rice fields, yes because Yumna house is adjacent to the rice fields of residents, and do not forget the various colors of colorful flowers, living stalls, and, and the pharmacy lives in the courtyard, making the scenery in that place look so beautiful.


"We'd better just sit here, Mas, because you can see this beautiful scenery, and wait for me, I'll bring you a warm drink." Yumna said she was leaving.


"Wait,! you don't have to go get me anything, you better get ready now because you're coming home with me to Makassar."


"What's to Makassar, go home?" sahut Yumna was shocked.


"Yes why? Don't you want to come with me? because I'm a disabled husband, so you mean? I know you're the same as everyone else you'd be ashamed to have a disabled husband like me,"


"You can't just accuse me, I'm not that kind of woman, as you'd expect."


"OK, we'll see later how it ends," said Vano Datar.


"But Father and Mother, huh,?"


"Papa, Mama's been talking about it so you're ready to go at 10:00 we're leaving Papa Mama will stay here first for one week Only you and I will go home, only you and I will, if you don't want to come along it's okay I don't mind,"


"Of course I want to come with you Mas, you are my husband, I will go wherever Mas goes," said Yumna in a heavy tone because Because for the first time he will leave his hometown, he said, where he was born and raised with love and affection from those around him.


And at exactly 10:00 in the morning Yumna had finished cleaning up all what would be needed and carried along on the way.


"You don't have to bring anything, because it's all going to be troublesome" Vano said as he watched Yumna flap her shirt.


"But Mas, What if we need something on the way, won't we be in the car for a long time,"


"Who said we will use the car we will take a plane from Tampa Padang airport.


"yes why? Are you afraid of getting on a plane? if you're afraid of getting on a plane you'd better get in the car, then when you get there there there'll be a driver to pick you up,"


"Vano! you fuck? having your wife ride in her own car is the first time Yumna is going to the city" said the mother.


"Out of the village still my village also did not understand why Mama married me to him," grumbled Vano annoyed.


"Vano watch how you speak,!" Tegur the Papa.


"Yes, what your father said was Vano, you don't talk carelessly about your wife." Sela the Mama is back


"Here you are, Whatever I Say, you will defend her, and you will regard her as your own child, not Me" Vano said, Because her Mom and Dad defended Yumna more, that's the one she doesn't like.


"Mom, Papa, Brother, Never mind. Are you guys not ashamed to fuss in front of sister-in-law let alone this is the house of sister-in-law How if both parents hear nothing yet Brother has made her feel offended," Timpal Alysaa who had seen Yumna just lowered his head with the debate between his parents and brother.


"Know if you're a child, you don't have to take care of my business if you shut up,!" sergeant Vano.


Tok to tok.


There was a knock on the door from outside Yumna rushed to open it.


"Assalamualaikum Ma'am, Father,!" "Waalaikumsalam Yumna Are you ready, son?" ask the mother.


"Have Ma'am, sir, soon we will leave, Ma'am, sir, forgive Yumna's mistake if all this time Yumna has been a lot of trouble Mother and Father," said Yumna who now has tears because for the first time he will be away from his parents.


"Darling, you know we've been a lot of trouble for you all this time, even we can't make you high school like your peers, happy at your husband's house remember your message, Father, devote yourself to your husband and your two in-laws, be a devoted wife" Yumna's parents, who have also been tearful, said, for this is the first time that Yumna will be far from them.


Seeing her son-in-law who was crying sobbing Bu Hesti also approached Yumna.


"Yum, you don't worry, if mama comes home mama will bring both of your parents along because your father has to undergo serious treatment in the city" said Ms. Hesti.


"Is that really Ma,?" Yumna's voice began to shine.


"honey, it's true that Mama will stay a week first here, because your father has business in several branch companies here" explained the Mama-in-law.


"And papa will also punish Alyssa, he will stay here in your place to help your mother work, he will take your mother back to the market.


Even he will also do what has been your job, and Kayla who will be responsible for being his supervisor," Timpal Pak Adiaksa.


"But Pah__"


"follow what Papa's decision has been, and do not argue, otherwise Papa will make you stay here forever," said Mr. Adiaksa gave his threat with a serious face mimic.
