Maryati's condition improved after a massage, she can walk even slowly. He forced himself to go to the kitchen for lunch, his stomach forced him to walk over to the food. No problem with cold side dishes, which is important the rice is hot because it is in the rice cooker.
Maryati enjoyed the food while complaining, her legs were not able to walk quickly. Even though he was bored and wanted to go even though just shopping for sweet foods at the front stall. Maryati does like snacks, her age is no longer young even makes her stomach often hungry, even though she does not do any sports.
The woman is now sitting on the terrace, in front of her contract there is a small table and also a chair to just relax. Some neighbors passed through his contract, but instead of greeting, they were in a hurry and did not see Maryati.
"Polite. I am older than them" he murmured.
Feeling that there was nothing attractive, the woman intended to enter. But suddenly Miss Nina came with a cake in her hand. Looks like I want to see a sick Maryati.
"How's her leg?" Ask Ms. Nina.
"It's better, sit down here..!" Answer Maryati. Although he did not smile but he was actually happy when there were people who cared about him. Supporting her and on her side, Maryati is looking for a friend to work with.
"This is my food for Miss Maryati, although not much, please accept ma'am," said Ms. Nina.
"Thank you" Maryati answered, received the hand, and then kept it on a small table on the front porch.
"Either. Oh yes Ma'am, yesterday my mother was helped by Riki, Bu Ani's grandson. She was so concerned, did mom have any family connection with Bu Ani whose house was in front of it? the big one is Mom, the owner of this contract. Bu Ani is quite famous because he is a new citizen who is quite active in providing some assistance," asked Nina.
"Riki, my granddaughter, she chose to live with her richer grandmother. Do you think a spoiled teenager would want to live in a small contract like this? Even Riki seemed to forget his mother who lives here. It seems like someone has it," answered Maryati.
"Jeez, really Mom? Well, it must have hurt a lot the feeling of Nita tea when her son was away. You better not let this happen Mom! You must teach a lesson! uh Riki's understanding love, so you know which things are good and bad, don't be affected so..!" Said Miss Nina upset.
"Oh, my besan is too arrogant. Though their property is also from Liana's future husband, mending if so married. If not, they will be expelled the most. What lesson and understanding do you mean Nin?" Maryati asked to lure her interlocutor.
As if getting a friend, Maryati and Nina instead chatted until they forgot the time, I don't know what plan they were talking about.

That afternoon Arman and Nita had returned home, Arman brought the side dishes he bought at the food stall on the way home. "You don't have to cook again Dek, I've bought side dishes for this afternoon and later tonight..!" Arman.
"Yes," answered Nita. The woman was happy, she rushed to clean herself up and lay down her body for a moment. Not yet asleep, Nita could hear the voices of her mother-in-law and husband arguing.
Nita wakes up and tries to eavesdrop, she wants to know what else makes her husband disagree with her mother. It feels like the household he built so far there is no calm at all, but behind it Nita must be sincere and patient. He should be able to assume this was his household test.
There is no easy road, right? Sometimes there are small pebbles, large stones, holes, derivatives and climbs. Life is so colorful, so-so, wouldn't it be so boring? Hm…
How inappropriate, if every day Maryati will protest if Nita's cooking is salty or sweet. Maryati also prefers that the food is not too crisp. Nita could be like now after she got thousands of comments from her mother-in-law.
"Not manjain Ma'am. But Nita and I work together. I know the tiredness of working, surely Nita also when going home wants to rest instead of cooking and working again at home. Nita has helped the family finances, I should be able to ease the homework. I hope you understand, after all I do not mind it, the family finances are still safe" replied Arman.
"You know that there is always a reason. You used to be obedient, but since you knew the woman you became disobedient like a mother," said Maryati.
"Astagfirullahaladzim Ma'am, I didn't mean that" replied Arman. The man began to get frustrated, he felt constantly wrong. He who did not want to get dizzy, he chose to go for a bath. Although it was only an excuse, but he better avoid his mother first.
When Arman entered, Nita was sitting at the bedside with a sharp look. There was a flash of anger but it seemed to remain in custody, because until this moment the woman was silent without a word. Precisely it makes Arman more worried, he better be scolded by his wife rather than just silenced, let alone for days.
Looks like I just entered the lion's den after escaping from the crocodile enclosure, Inner Arman.
"I thought you were taking a nap on the Deck" said Arman. He drew closer to his wife, the atmosphere becoming increasingly gripping. There was no answer, Nita just rounded her eyes and kept silent.
"Dek...," call Arman again slowly.
"Hmm, yeah I'm not sleeping. We better not have to buy food again tomorrow, just buy raw materials, let me cook. Let's not wasteful..!" Nita said flatly but was able to stab into Arman's heart. Guilt also arises, Arman realized that if Nita always relented, Nita was not comfortable with the attitude of her mother.
But if he wants to separate his wife and mother, then where should he go? Obviously all his siblings refused to take care of his mother, only he was willing. Only Nita wants to, but her mother still can't melt with their kindness.
"Don't be the Deck. You do not have to think about mother's words, consider the wind then. His name is also old man..! We are old, sometimes we test our patience. You are patient, baby..!" Arman. The man tried to persuade and calm his wife.

Liana only wants an event at the time of her wedding, she also hopes that over time, she can accept Daffa with all her heart.
Nita is ready with the uniform Liana gave her, as well as Arman and Maryati. Although Maryati had previously insulted the shirt, she ended up wearing it. Nita was relieved, she did not want if there was a misunderstanding arising from her neighbors.
When the show has not reached its point. Maryati looking for the figure of Riki and Nabila. After he found one of them and stood among the crowd of his target. Maryati approached Riki, hugged the man's body tightly, and was adorned with sobs.
Riki who was shocked, he was confused to react to it. He was in a position never imagined before. Until Maryati's voice that issued word for word, made Riki hate her even more and it felt like wanting to release the grandmother's embrace by force and brute force.
