Three days hospitalized for recovery, Habibah was finally allowed to go home. With a note from the doctor that he should really relax and not much thought. So that events like a few days ago do not happen again. Qodir who was outside the city could do nothing but pray that his wife and child were fine. Qodir who could not go home during Habibah's hospitalization continued to ask news from his mother about his wife's condition. He can't go home because he's been out of town for a week. He could not leave his job even though he was eager to accompany his wife in the hospital. But his mother tried to calm him down so that Qodir focused on his work only.
Arriving at home, Habibah just sat on the side of his bed. He hasn't said a word since he got out of the hospital. He just stared at the phone he was holding. I don't know what he was thinking at the time. Either he wants to contact someone or wait for someone to contact him. What is certain is that his facial expression showed shock.
" dear... What the hell are you thinking? Don't think too much about things you don't have to think about.. Remember the doctor's message before we go home earlier, do not let you stress again. Because it's dangerous for your baby. If there's something you can talk to your mom, right? Don't keep it to herself." her mother-in-law suddenly appeared in the doorway of her room and walked up to her and gently rubbed her head.
" The bibah is okay... Bibah just wants to go home to the Bibah contract. Old Mas Qodir outside the city must be a very dirty house because no one cleaned it." Habibah tried to give a reasonable excuse. Although that's not really the real reason. She just didn't want to make her mother-in-law worry.
" Let's eat first, you haven't eaten yet baby.. Pity your child if you eat slowly, he may be malnourished later. Mama was cooking your favorite spicy sweet-sour crab, you know. "take her in-laws while reaching for her favorite daughter-in-law's hand so she wakes up from her seat. Habibahpun had to follow his mother-in-law to the dining table, even though he really did not want to. He didn't want to hurt his mother-in-law if she refused.
After lunch, Habibah sat in the living room and watched television. Tired of the show he watched, he grabbed the remote control on the table and looked for a channel that aired a good show according to Habibah. Suddenly he saw a special channel of a children's show that aired a cartoon. Well, he ended up watching the cartoon until the ashar prayer arrived. Her in-laws who saw could only smile happily watching her daughter-in-law finally smile and laugh after watching a cartoon.
When Habibah just stood up from his seat to take water ablution, suddenly one of the wives of his sister-in-law passed him to the kitchen.
" Has right to behave like a child, it turns out he was a child. The spectacle is a cartoon film that.." he said cynically to Habibah. Habibah just silently heard the insinuation of his sister-in-law's wife.
" Rina..you are nothing Rin.." scolded her mother-in-law.
" Mama tuh yes, she is always defended and pampered.. She's not a little girl ma, is it because she's pregnant and mom wants to keep her? Ma, I'm also my mother's daughter-in-law, but my mother never managed me like her mama. My mom chose to tell me.. He's always been a golden boy, so dear daughter-in-law, can't I be jealous?" sahut Rina cut off her mother-in-law's speech
Habibah and her mother-in-law just silently heard Rina's chatter. Rina really could no longer hold back her feelings of jealousy towards Habibah. Habibah left Rina and her mother-in-law to perform the Ashar prayer without speaking. His heart that had been comforted had returned depressed because of the words of his sister-in-law's wife. After the Ashar prayer Habibah did not come out of his room again. He grabbed his phone and stared at a name that was plastered on the phone screen. She seemed hesitant to call the number, not knowing what made her hesitate. When Habibah was confused by his doubts, suddenly his phone rang making Habibah surprised by it. He saw a call from the name he had been looking at, for some reason he suddenly cried after finding out who had contacted him at that moment.
" Assalamu'alaykum.." greeting from the other end of the phone.
" Wa'alaykumussalam.." replied Habibah while holding back his tears.
" Why are you? You cry, huh? What was? Where are you now? Which mama?" tanyanya long.
" Well, why did you just call me? Mom, I want to go home. I do not want to give birth here, I want to be at home." said Habibah without answering a single question from her husband.
" What's wrong, honey? If there will be nothing to take care of you. If in the place of mom there are many people who can take care of you if you give birth. If there you bother yourself if I go to work..."
"I want to go home.. Soon pick me home.." cried Habibah who was detained since then finally broke also. Qodir, who heard Habibah's unusual cry, panicked.
" okay.. Okay.. You. You calm down first, I'll pick you up as soon as possible. But you don't cry anymore.. I will try to pick you up as soon as possible." replied Qodir trying to calm his wife.
" When do you want to pick him up?" ask Habibah .
" Yes." answered Habibah briefly.
" Yes, now you rest first. I still have a little work to do, if I have time to call you again" Qodir said, ending his call.
Apparently Qodir called his mother, he was very curious what made his wife to force to go home to their rented house. Even his wife cried like that, she was sure there must be something going on in his mother's house.
" Assalamu'alaykum." said Qodir his mother received a call from him.
" Wa'alaykumussalam.." said his mother.
"Ma, how are you?" ask Qodir.
" Thank God, son, how are you?"ask mother.
" Thank God be good, ma, don't worry about me. Oh, ma'am, is there something going on there?" ask Qodir finally.
" What happened?"his mother seemed confused by the question of his son.
" So ma, my wife suddenly asked to be picked up back to our rented house. I thought something was going on there. I asked my mother, because she insisted on going home ma. ", Qodir explained.
" Maybe he's not comfortable here, son, pregnant people can't be likened to normal people who are not pregnant. It must be understood that there are many things that are out of habit. Do not be a problem, because the nature of pregnant people is different. So don't be upset if there are things you don't like about your wife during her pregnancy. You have to take care of her feelings, because pregnant people feel more sensitive. If he asks to go home, then you must follow his wishes. Because if forced she is here later will not be good for your wife. Your wife may be depressed again. Mama doesn't want your wife and child so why would she be forced to live here. Even if you want your wife to give birth here, but if she wants to go home then you have to pick her up to go home." her mother advised Qodir.
" Well then ma. two more days I just finished with the work here. While I tipped my wife first yes ma.. Sorry to bother you." replied Qodir.
" Mommy doesn't feel bothered, son.. Mama's glad she's here. But what can be done if he has asked to go home, mama only wants the best for him." replied his mother.
"Thank you for understanding mom. Yes, yes ma.. Assalamu'title.." Said Qodir ending the chat.
"Wa'alaykumussalam." replied his mother as she closed the call. So this is what makes him moody every day? Why don't I think about getting there... She must have been annoyed by Rina's attitude.. I don't know how to deal with Rina. O God, give you this greater patience in my heart...
