Secretly, Miss Rosa chose to follow Rani into her room. His heart as an older brother was really pity to see Rani being treated like this by her own son-in-law. There was no respect from Amel as a daughter-in-law to Aunt Rani, as her father-in-law.
"Ran, can I come in?" ask Miss Rosa to her sister. Now Miss Rosa is still standing at the door. Last saw her sister crying and went into the room, it felt like Miss Rosa wanted to catch up with her sister immediately.
"Come in, Tea," replied Aunt Rani.
Entering her sister's bedroom, Ms. Rosa sat on the edge of the bed, right next to her crying sister. He then spoke softly to Rani there.
"Sorry, Ran .. instead of me interfering. However, what you have experienced is not true at all" replied Miss Rosa.
Still sobbing, Aunt Rosa wiped away the clear circles that had soaked her cheeks. Honestly, she felt embarrassed when her brother saw how the mess was going on in his house. During this time, Aunt Rani tried to hide her tears from anyone. However, now his own brother saw how his household was far from harmonious. Especially when her brother had already assumed, it felt like it was embarrassing for her.
"It's okay, Tea," Rani replies by trying to calm down.
"I have a daughter-in-law too, Ran .. never did she speak rudely to me. Never did he ask for something to be cooked" Miss Rosa replied.
Now Miss Rosa opened her voice and compared Giselle to Amel. She and her sister Rani both ask for a single son and have a daughter-in-law. However, his daughter-in-law never spoke harshly to him. Never asked for anything to cook. To the extent that it has been two more years, where Miss Rosa knows Giselle's favorite food. So silent and accepting Giselle, all the food she cooked, Giselle must have eaten.
"Yes, that household has many stories, Tea. There is a son-in-law who is brash, there are also his parents-in-law who judges and makes his son-in-law not at home. Yeah, look at it again," she replied.
"Yes, really. However, children and daughters-in-law must respect the parents" Ms. Rosa replied again.
Aunt Rani sighed harshly. His palms occasionally stroked his own chest, gesturing for him to be more patient. Can accept the situation and also not easily angry when looking at his daughter-in-law. After that, then Aunt Rani avenged her brother.
"I've tried to be a good in-law, Teh .. I always get up early, cook for my son and daughter-in-law, I wash their clothes, until ********** I am the one who cleans. Less what, Tea? Well, maybe it was me who didn't have good luck. If you can, you want to have a good daughter-in-law, soft, beautiful, and well educated like Neng Giselle. However, the fate of people alone, right?"
Frankly Aunt Rani judged that Giselle was a good daughter-in-law. Although minimal interaction, but Aunt Rani knows that Giselle is a good daughter-in-law, very contracted with Amel. Unfortunately, he gets a daughter-in-law who is as opposed as the character of Giselle. If, having a daughter-in-law like Giselle, surely Aunt Rani feels good.
"Wash in her too? It's too much" Miss Rosa replied in annoyance.
"Yes, that's tea. Even though it was put into the washing machine, who dried it? I am too, right?"
What Aunty Rani experienced was her reality. Not infrequently, the son-in-law actually acts and treats his own in-laws like servants. Asked to cook, wash, sunbathe, until ironing clothes. Not later when there are children, the in-laws who have to take care of the grandchildren, while the son-in-law works. Just like Aunt Rani, the morning when Amel and Shandy were still hugging warmly in bed, she was already awake. How the kitchen is already steaming, the washing machine has grinded dirty clothes, sweeping the house. That is his routine every day.
"Astagfirullah .. disobey your son-in-law. Gibran and Giselle use the day off to wash their own clothes. Where ever troubled parents," replied Miss Rosa.
"Gibran and Giselle are good, Tea. Thankful that Teteh has a good child, daughter-in-law is also good. Neng Giselle is not like a daughter-in-law, even a child. He looks very affectionate" replied Aunt Rani.
"What is it?" ask Miss Rosa.
Aunt Rani nodded her head. "Behind her silence, she has a soft heart. Rani has met a lot of people, can judge people. Giselle is good. Tetuh is lucky and grateful to have a son-in-law who is like his own child. Now rarely Tea, there is such a daughter-in-law. Just look and feel it. Yes, if not his poor daughter-in-law, and his opposite father-in-law" replied Aunt Rani.
In her heart, Miss Rosa was still wondering. She still felt Giselle was not right. Women from among the ranks, very rich in fact, but do not like to depend on the wealth of their parents. Gibran has to work hard. If only Giselle would make her Papa give a strategic position in the company, surely Gibran's economic life would be better.
"Amel's attitude is so because he's from a family of being, while Shandy is just the son of a widow. He is much more. The income is also high. Deserve Amel so, because the money a month to cook is also part of him. Yes, I was wrong" replied Aunt Rani.
"Giselle gives a lot every month. Where ever Giselle snapped at me. Dare to snatch, I tear his mouth," Miss Rosa replied furiously.
"Neng Giselle would never do that, Teh. Just trust. Today's high-income wife wants her to be, her husband to be her servant, anything she wants to be served. That's normal" replied Aunt Rani.
"Yes, no .. wife of any rank, degree, and income must submit to her husband. The husband is the head of the household, must obey the husband," replied Miss Rosa.
"Is there still, Tea?" ask Aunt Rani again.
"Giselle."
The answer came out on its own. Yes, Giselle is a woman from a wealthy, high-income, overseas-educated family, but where Giselle was once acting arbitrarily with Gibran. There, Giselle always follows Gibran's decision. That's what Giselle's been doing all along.
"Everything, Rani wants to have a daughter-in-law like Neng Giselle" he replied with a bitter smile.
For a moment, if only having a daughter-in-law like Giselle would have been a peaceful household. No son-in-laws. There were no in-laws in her own home. Always visit the high tolerance between in-laws and daughters-in-law.
"But .. he ...."
Miss Rosa was about to answer again, but the answer broke in the middle of the road because Rani immediately denied it.
"He's perfect, Tea. Do you want a daughter-in-law's week?" hail Aunt Rani with a laugh. Of course it's just a joke.
"No, I can die standing up" Miss Rosa replied quickly.
Until finally Aunt Rani chuckles slowly. "Yes, that. Grateful Tea ... She had a good son, a good daughter-in-law, and soon she would have grandchildren. Which other delights do you lie about? A prosperous and happy family is a major blessing for parents" she said.
Miss Rosa fell silent and nodded her head. If only he had been more receptive to Giselle, perhaps his home would still be crowded with Gibran and Giselle. In addition, there was a baby cry that would perfect his hut. Unfortunately, all happened. Is it true that he who is less grateful cannot be a jewel among the haystack?
