The Neglected Pearl
Part 104 Feeling disappointed
“And when your in-laws are rich, but why is the wedding done in a simple way?” marlina asked her daughter.
“Come on Ma'am, I don't know,” Defi replied with a slight whisper.
“Means, your in-laws are stingy people.”
“Sst, I don't just talk, it will sound the same to them, we are also difficult.”
Marlina was really disappointed at that time, because Zaki's wedding was not in accordance with the condition of her luxurious and magnificent home.
Until the show was over, Marlina still showed her sour face. Defi who sees the face of his mother is never sweet, trying to ask.
“Why the hell, Mom? how does it look unhappy?”
“How happy Def, you know yourself, if your in-laws are the richest people, but why is his son's wedding just like this!”
“Sst! Mother yes, if you like hurt the feelings of people. This is their party anyway, why Mother is a sewot."
Must be any way, if the rich man is having a party, yes festive, not like this Defi.”
“Udah-already, later sounds the same brand again.”
Marlina, who is happy to get a conglomerate, is actually eager to show off to her unprofessional friends, if luck is on her side.
But because Mang Ojo did not want to show his luxury in front of Defi's parents, that's why Marlina's heart hurt so much.
After the reception was held, Marlina immediately invited her husband to return to the city of Padang.
“Why rush anyway, Bun?” ask Defi wonder.
“Do what linger here try, if they are afraid to show their luxury to everyone.”
“This mundane why? I don't understand.”
“Do you not see, they deliberately held a reception like that.”
“Mother, it is their event, anyways we are here only as invited guests, not hosts, so please Mother to understand about it.”
Well, for this time, Mommy tries to understand, but today also Mommy will go home to Padang.
Seeing his Mother's attitude that was a little harsh, Defi could only stay still, while Feri who saw his daughter was sad, he was immediately angry at Marlina who could not keep his daughter's feelings.
“What the hell, you mean like this?”
“I don't mean anything, Da.”
“So, why from yesterday, you always talk about it?”
“I'm annoyed at them Da, because they've humbled us.”
“When do they demean us?”
“Try Uda see, the time of the house is as big and luxurious as this, they only carry out reception events like that.”
“That's their business, why the hell did you interfere,” Feri said a little annoyed.
“Udah, already! I was lazy to discuss it with Uda, because there is no way out.”
While they were fighting, Zakia suddenly came into the room.
“Mothers and Mothers in wait at the dining table!”
“Alright, soon we will come.”
After Mr. Feri agreed to Zakia's remarks, the woman left the room.
“Come, Dad, Mom! we ate there!” take Defi to both of his parents.
Upon the arrival of the three of them in the dining room, it turned out that the entire Mang Ojo family had been waiting for them to eat, there Marlina also saw Zakia and the others, sitting the same at the dining table.
After everyone sat down and prepared to eat, Alhuda stood up and distributed the rice on each plate, while Marlina, who was not used to it, tried to refuse it.
“Let Mother herself take it nak,” said Marlina while holding her plate.
“Let go aja Bu,” Defi said in a soft voice.
With a heavy heart, Marlina removed the plate from her hand. And Alhuda immediately filled his plate with rice.
At the meal, Marlina who did not know anything, immediately spoke before all family members.
“We want to go home tomorrow to Padang Pak, it is not good to leave the house for too long,” Marlina said in a loud voice.
When Marlina spoke, all eyes were on Mang Ojo, not Marlina who was talking.
Even though the voice was very clear in Mang Ojo's ears, but he was silent, not a word came out of his lips, Defi who saw it, said, immediately put his mother's hand out and told her to be quiet.
Meanwhile Feri who saw the family eating noiseless, he also felt wrong, his breathing felt so tight at that time, because Feri who had always been eating without serving, he said, not comfortable with that.
His hands looked a little stiff, the meat on his plate was difficult to cut, so the fork he was holding fell down on the dining table.
Feri attempts to retrieve it, but Alhuda arrives to deliver a new spoon for him.
“Sorry to me,” Feri told Alhuda.
Alhuda did not answer him he just smiled sweetly in front of Feri who looked a little pale on his face.
After finishing eating, Marlina immediately stood up and left the dining table, while others closed it by reading do’a thanks to God, for having been given abundant sustenance and blessings.
“weird family!” marlina said in a loud voice.
“Fatma who listened to the words from Marlina just answered her, her heart was not happy with her new words.
“What mother mean?” ask Fatma to know.
Defi who felt bad about the small debate, he immediately invited his Mother to go into the room.
“What is Defi, how to tug at the hand of Mother?”
“It looks like Mommy does not fit yes with this family.”
“if yes, why?”
“If yes, Mother does not need to show the attitude of the Mother to them. Remember Bun, we are only guests here no,” Defi explained to the Mother.
“Mother knows, but the reality is not, if they are a strange family group!”
“They are all not strange Bun, only Mother who is not used to their ways.”
“If their attitude is like that, who wants to get used to their way.”
“Buktinya me, I used to think like that, but in fact, I can really adjust to them, Mang Ojo, do not want anyone to talk when again eating Bun, they have accustomed themselves to discipline since childhood.”
“Aah, Mommy does not believe, basically they are a strange family.”
“Yes already, if Mommy thinks like that, it's okay,” said Defi who did not want his mother to be hurt.
“Tomorrow Mother wants to go home! Ogah Mommy linger here.”
“Well, I will send Bang Zaki to the airport to buy tickets for Daddy and Mommy.”
Marlina did not like to see the Mang Ojo family who was considered so stingy and strange, for that she wanted to leave the luxury house owned by Mang Ojo as soon as possible.
