The In-Law Choices

Chapter 71 Fatimah's explanation

Aisyah put her foot into her own foundation with a bad feeling. He was also confused as to why he could be upset by Zack's attitude, instead of answering his question the man asked back.

"Didn't he understand that if I came here it brought a cocky feeling to Ummi, he was being insensitive". His omelnya down the hallway to Fatimah's room. Some people greeted him kindly, he only returned with a smile and kept stepping foot with no intention of stopping.

Upon entering Fatimah's room, Aisyah knew the woman was inside because usually at the present hour the woman was resting in her room. Without knocking first Aisyah directly barged in after opening the door.

Fatimah was astonished that someone was not polite to go into the room without knocking on the door first, but after seeing who came her face which initially looked shocked changed. He missed the woman he had raised.

"Dear baby, come sit down!". Fatimah is warm. Aisyah was now sitting in front of him, separated by her desk. "How are you doing? It's been a few months that you didn't come to visit here, for fear that Ummi might have rode your husband's house last week but your judes-in-law kicked Ummi out, she said you no longer lived there". Reciprocity.

Fatimah was actually astonished by Aisyah's face that did not look happy at all, even her lips were not engraved with the smile she used to see. But Fatimah tried to be calm, "maybe she was having severe problems, so only now she came to visit to vent". Inner Fatimah.

" How's your household with Rehan? All is well, why did your in-laws say you no longer lived there, surely he just wanted to throw it out". Guess Fatimah.

"If you have a problem tell me the same ummi, baby! Ummi knows you are now an adult and already have your own household but what is wrong we are the same - the same story about our problems, the same, ummi also has something to say to you, but you better first". Persuade Fatimah when Aisha did not answer her greeting at all just a sharp look that she received.

"I've met my parents". Finally Aisyah opened her mouth still with a flat face. Fatimah who heard him immediately rounded her eyes in shock.

"congratulations to you, baby". Said Fatimah, He was silent again waiting for Aisyah to continue her words. Confused to respond what if Aisyah's face alone was flat like that.

After a few moments of silence with each other staring, Aisyah again uttered words that further cornered Fatimah. "Why haven't you allowed me to be adopted? Even from the first you were impressed to hide me from others". Ask Aisyah ketus.

Fatimah's tongue is murky, he was increasingly confused to tell all that from where because of the incident he played a few years until Aisyah forced to be independent and look for work outside when she was 18 years old. He allowed it because he thought the circumstances outside were safe for him even the man who asked for his cooperation had long since not appeared and no longer sent money like an agreement.

"Why bengong? Answer it!". Snapped Aisyah, the woman in front of her had jumped from her seat. "For so long I have always glorified the kindness of Ummi, very grateful for getting more affection than others, ummi said do not get out of the room if anyone is looking for an adopted child, it is said that I am not taken by others because ummi is very dear to me, but in fact what? You hid me for profit". So Aisyah took out her grandfathers.

Aisyah had lost respect for the woman before her now, but she was the only one that Aisyah had and was proud to be half dead but in fact she only took advantage of Aisyah's presence.

"Listen Aisha! Ummi is very fond of you and indeed ummi intends not to give you to others not hide you dear". Buuk Fatimah tried to approach Aisyah who looked very furious at her.

Aisyah was only silent, she was still waiting for the explanation that Fatimah wanted to convey but because she had already believed the words of Mr. Santo when in the hospital so she was reluctant to be touched by the woman, but because she had not been able to touch him, whenever Fatimah tried to hold her hand, she quickly brushed aside and slightly dodged.

"But to blame Ummi for receiving the help of someone who is very much in need for the survival of all of us, ummi was forced to work with the man so that we can eat". Fatimah is now in tears. The story of his struggle to maintain the continuity of his home and also the survival of all the children in it is so heavy he bore himself until the circumstances urge him to accept the offer, he will bear his own sins.

"That's the same way you feed us from money that is not halal". Read Aisyah getting upset. The reason given by Fatimah is heartbreaking, but all that does not close the crime even looks more wrong in the eyes of Aisyah.

"Yes Ummi knows, but what else? After all the money that the man gave was not ummi use to buy food, Ummi use to buy clothes and repair the damage to this building, that's all". Fatimah was sad.

"You knew? if you don't listen to the man's words and prefer to find out who my parents really are, it's definitely more in your favor". Aisha Imbuh.

"Ummi was fooled by all his words, he said if you are not hidden then you are in danger, not you even we will all die. So many are after your life, because ummi loves you so much Ummi was forced to obey his words. Ummi never asked for anything in return but he gladly provided help". Honestly Fatimah felt sorry.

Not yet had Aisha approached Fatimah to calm the woman, the door was knocked by someone. Fatimah quickly wiped away her tears even though her face still looked very sad and felt guilty.

"Come in". Fatimah.

Aisyah and Fatimah were equally surprised to see who stood opening the door.

"Good afternoon, with Fatimah Az zahra's mother?". Ask mr. Sambo. Next to him were two police women.

"I - yes afternoon, myself". Fatimah answered with a feeling of uncertainty.

From the outside, there was a faint sound - sayup some Fatimah employees were confused by the arrival of several police officers to the room Fatimah was sent by one of her employees.

"Sorry if we interrupt, we came here to take Ms. Fatimah to the police station for questioning, please come with us ma'am!". Imbuh Mr Sambok.

Fatimah looked at Aisyah with a guilty face, she then approached the policeman resignedly without a word. The two policewomen handcuffed Fatimah and held her.

The employees looked sad to see their superiors wanted to be brought by the police. So did Aisyah, after hearing Fatimah's explanation earlier she now became worried about her adoptive mother's narratives.

"Ummi take it easy, if the ummi story was true, Aisyah promised to try to free the ummi". Aisyah Pledge. Fatimah just smiled warmly at him.

As he stepped out Fatimah asked permission to speak to her trusted employee, "Lana".

"Yes buk". Javan Lana is sad.

"For a while you handle the foundation first well, sorry to trouble you again". The Fatimah Pinta on Lana.

"No kok buk, this foundation is half my life, I will always channel filial piety without feeling bothered buk". Lirih Lana, she is a child who was also raised in this home but only a few years back after traveling far with her husband, who was, but after the husband returned to mercy he returned alone until finally decided to return to the orphanage to channel filial piety sincerely.

After giving the trust to Lana to guard the Foundation, Fatima was taken away to the police station leaving a million grief in the hearts of the orphanage's foundation residents. Aisha could not help but cry, in Fatimah's room she wept bitterly - and felt guilty for the woman who had raised her.

All the employees returned to continue their duties that had paused after greeting and asking Aisyah's situation. But the woman was just silent not budging until they chose to leave her to calm the mind first.

"I'm sorry Ummi". His murmur felt dizzy while hugging the Fatimah photo. His head became more painful and his eyes darkened until he finally became unconscious.
