Giselle was quite scared when she had to go back to her in-laws' house. However, Gibran asks Giselle to calm down. According to Gibran, Giselle had nothing to fear from her mother-in-law. The important thing is that Giselle still pays respect to her mother-in-law.
Respect is not the same as fear. During this time, people tend to be afraid of others. Like Giselle who was afraid that her mother-in-law would be angry with her. He could respect his mother-in-law. Because, respect there is a sense of responsibility and also reluctant. While fearing it will be more intimidating.
"Mas Gibran didn't try to apologize to Mom?" ask Giselle now.
It was late in the afternoon, but Giselle was still in the room. Since coming up to now, Giselle has chosen not to get off her room. For he also took a moment off from every scathing speech of his mother.
"It's okay, honey. Let me calm down first" Gibran replied.
Yes, according to Gibran if he calms his mother now it will feel the same. So, it is better to give his mother time to calm down, and unravel all her anger and frustration first. Then later or tomorrow Gibran will apologize to his mother. Gibran did not yell at his mother at all. The one he snapped was Annisa. Gibran did not feel like he was hurting his mother. Instead, Gibran tried to give understanding so that his mother could love Giselle more than Annisa.
"Tomorrow I'll also apologize to Mom, Mas" said Giselle.
"Why? It's not you that Mom always hurts. As long as I bring you here, you apologize to Mom many times. For mistakes you didn't make, you want to apologize" Gibran said.
Although sometimes silent and seems to have no power, but Gibran noticed Giselle. His wife often apologized to her mother. When she was wronged, Giselle apologized. Precisely, when his mother who finished berating and talking spicy to Giselle, his mother who never tried to apologize.
"She's your mother, Mas .. daughter-in-law will honor her in-laws. Either way, I'll apologize to Mom. Form my respect for my husband as well, what does it all mean if I can't pay respect to my mother-in-law" Giselle replied.
Giselle is a well-mannered woman. Although from a wealthy family, but he paid respect to his mother-in-law. He knows that compassion must be accompanied by respect. Devotion to her husband was also accompanied with respect to the in-laws. In these two years, Giselle had already done so. However, it seems that her own mother-in-law always saw Giselle from the bad side. His incompetence in the kitchen, as well as his self who had not been able to give offspring.
Even if only see blemish, forever also only looks woe. Will not be able to see the other side or the goodness of Giselle in the other field, which can cover her incompetence. However, if you initially do not like it, so most likely Miss Rosa herself is also difficult to accept Giselle to be a daughter-in-law.
"Here hugged Mas aja .. was almost crazy when you went from home. What was in my mind at that time, just have to pursue you. Have to apologize and bring you home" Gibran said.
Yes, the man hugged Giselle. He was like a madman, running up and down the stairs. In addition, Gibran also spurred his car to be able to walk faster because indeed he did not want to lose track of Giselle.
"I'm in love with you, honey .. I don't want to lose you. Whatever happens, we will always be together" Gibran said.
"I'm sorry, too, Mas .. was a blur. I should have thought long. But just a month, my. I think if the condition of the house is not conducive like this, also I can not continue to live here," I Giselle.
"Well, I'll think about it" Gibran replied.

The next day ....
Giselle set her alarm early. It was also because he wanted to wake up not oversleeping and could cook first for his family's breakfast. Last night at dinner, her mother-in-law didn't come to dinner. When Gibran knocked on the door, his mother said she would not eat. Therefore, now Giselle took the initiative to wake up early and immediately make a dish.
Chicken and vegetable soup has been served. Tea was also served. Giselle chose to go upstairs again to take a shower. After taking a shower, he hurried to go down to the kitchen. Setting the dining table. However, until now her mother-in-law was also still not out of the room. Though usually, his mother-in-law will wake up the morning at home. If Giselle has not yet come down to the kitchen, Miss Rosa will deliberately make dishes by sauteing hard, until there is friction from a stir-fry tool with a frying pan or pan. If not, there must be equipment that has fallen. It was like a distinctive sound so that Giselle could immediately go down to the kitchen. However, now the house was very quiet.
On time for breakfast. Then Miss Rosa came out of the room. He should be sitting at the dining table. There was Giselle and Gibran as well who were already sitting at the dining table.
"For Mom," said Giselle ahead to say good morning.
However, Giselle's greeting was not answered by her mother-in-law. Choose silence and enjoy a cup of tea with the aroma of jasmine that has been presented in front of him.
"Morning, Mum ...."
Turn Gibran greeting. However, Miss Rosa was still silent. That's a sign that Miss Rosa is angry. Reluctant to talk to Giselle and Gibran. At the same time, Giselle looked at her husband. As if he wanted to talk with just his eyes.
Gibran nodded his head faintly. It is better to eat breakfast and then go to work. It was also impossible to wait for his mother to speak. If so, both of them will not go to work.
It only takes 15 minutes to eat. After that, Gibran helped Giselle to wash the cutlery after use. Then the two said goodbye to his angry mother.
"We go first, Mother," said Giselle again.
Quiescent. Yes, Miss Rosa still chose to be quiet and throw her face away. When our efforts to do good, but not welcomed, to be honest in the heart, it feels bad. However, Giselle had to get used to everything. He has been treated this way often. Now, he must calm his own heart.
As soon as Gibran left the house, Gibran opened the door for Giselle. Usually the couple will go to work alone, but Gibran has asked Giselle to go to work with him, and later Gibran can pick her up. In the car, Giselle asked her husband.
"The angry mother, Mas ... has been quiet since then," said Giselle.
"Yes, if you're angry you'll be quiet like that. Its alright. Later if it's back again," reply Gibran.
"I feel guilty about it" replied Giselle.
"Do we have to wait all day at home, wait for Mom to talk, don't we, honey? We also have to work. Its alright. Later in the afternoon try again," said Gibran.
"In my mother's house when angry usually nagging anyway. An hour at most and angry. Not angry anymore. If you face the angry diem is even confused," said Giselle now.
"And people are different too, dear. It's okay" Gibran replied.
The morning was completely quiet. His mother who seemed to be imprisoned not to speak. Also, Giselle and Gibran are also reluctant to make a sound. It is also better to be quiet first.
