The Enchantment of the Pelintrik

Hot Wind

Irma took a deep breath before meeting her mother who was standing guard at the stall. Strengthened himself so that his mother did not be burdened with the problem.

The woman who gave birth to him had suffered enough because of his unfaithful father. Irma did not want to add to her mother's suffering with the same case.

Irma had enough tears for herself. After all he had benefited to go home in good health and survived despite the influence of daze on the way. Bruises caused by slapping asphalt near the elbow are covered with long-sleeved clothes.

Irma walked into the stall with a firm heart. No sad mimicry or hurt is shown. There was only a flat face with a slight smile. At least its clean and neat appearance after bathing can slightly hide the inner upheaval that is going on.

“Buany, Bu?” irma asked with a mediocre expression, as if nothing sad was happening to her life.

“Lumayan, today many people buy eggs. He said he wanted to use one Suro. I forgot to tell you this morning. Now call the egg man, ask for two more crates as soon as possible!”

Irma did not delay work, her egg stock was indeed thin. He contacted the egg supplier while checking other stocks. Looking for busyness so that his mother does not ask much about the results of his surveillance.

After all, the stall was his source of income. He must really pay attention to the goods that must be added immediately and sold quickly.

Irma gave thanks when she saw the money drawer. His mother had separated the money sheet according to nominal, and that counted a lot. Twice as much as yesterday.

Surprising indeed, even though the salon managed by Beni is no longer operational, Irma's finances remain stable. The shooting shop was better than usual. God is good, not one bit reduce the ration of sustenance of both his children.

"I got three crates of eggs, Mom! There is a special order for one crate for Jeng Meme, later the man who took it! He's the same take fifty kilos of rice" said Irma.

"Taken at what time?"

"Two hours."

“Oh same eggs shipment coming! How did you ... meet your husband?” ask Irma's mother to know. For a week the son-in-law has not come home, for a week his mother Irma refrained from asking questions, or meddling in the household affairs of her son.

“Me, Mom!” answer Irma bitterly.

“Where? Is she the same as other women?”

Irma gulped roughly, then nodded, “In the Salon of the village next door. Same other woman. They ... they said they were married!”

“How can Beni remarry without your consent, Ir? Means Beni divorced you without talking to mom? You were left out, but you didn't talk about this matter to mom?"

"I'm still trying to make Mas Beni remember to come home, Mom!"

"It's good that your husband's behavior .. does he not remember marrying you is just a snoring capital? Now pretend handsome by marrying another woman and forget to go home?”

Irma did not answer her mother's question. Had enough of his heart ached today, he did not want to add to the wound by discussing Beni with his mother. Let's just say everything her mother said was true! And the reality is so ….

"Alright, Mom! Help pray Mas Beni remember to come home! Pity Novan and Novia if up to Mas Beni also do not remember with his son."

“Basic men don't know lucky!”

Irma looked up at her mother's words. Is it true that her husband is a man who does not know to be lucky?

Irma objected to the predicate her mother had pinned. Beni is not so bad. Beni was just being tempted by another woman. And that too with magical causes. Not purely from the heart of Beni who deliberately wants to be double let alone leave his children and wife.

But Irma did not dare to deny her mother's frontal sentences. He was silent and silent without defending the father of his two children. Hoping his mother would pray for his household to be back intact.

"Mom rest now! Let me guard the shop!" Irma deliberately asked her mother to rest so that her high blood does not recur.

"Yes, I'm staying, later if the hassles call me mother!"

"Novan and Novia told the shop, Mom! Make my friend!"

"Yes!"

And for the next hours, Irma busied herself with her two children while looking after the store. Tired, Irma closed the shop after dusk changed.

Irma still had time to joke with her two children in front of the television until dinner time. He even showed Beni an incoming message to little Novia who said that her father would come home soon.

"So papa come home tomorrow, Ma?"

"Yes!"

"Hore, we go swimming to the water park!" sahut Novan happy.

Irma smiled. He concluded that Beni must have overstepped the conditions laid out in front of the salon door. The proof is Beni directly sent Irma a short message. Only, Irma one hundred percent sure that Madam Suzan did not give time to Beni to leave the house.

The naughty woman must have grabbed Beni with her body charm. It keeps Beni busy with her passion, so there is no chance to think about Irma and her two children.

WHOOS!!!

The night was getting late, Irma began to feel unusually tired. His head suddenly throbbed pain and something clanked in it. Something that just went through the ear hole. Not a small object or beast, but more akin to a hot wind being blown by someone invisible to his eyes.

Irma held her head, massaged and closed her eyes to endure the sudden pain. “Novia ... Get mom a headache medicine, mom dizzy once!”
