This morning after my dawn, I gathered my clothes and my husband. I took it to the wash and soaked it with the detergent available there. Seeing my activities, Bi Tijah forbids.
“Leave it there, Ms. Risa. Let Sindi wash it.”
“Not Bi. Please don't wash this bath. Let me do it.”
“Mbak . . . in this house there are already many helpers with their respective tasks. So Risa's not gonna have to wash. “ Bi Tijah once again grabbed my hand so as not to touch my laundry again. Hearing the commotion in the laundry room, Aditya, my husband came and did the same with Bi Tijah.
“True what Bik Tijah said, Darling, let the shirt be washed Sindi.” I'm pouting.
“Honey, you can do something else for me, yeah. Let's go to the kitchen. A cooking mom needs help. In this house all the helpers do, except cooking. I don't want to eat food except for mom's cooking. I am the same. I won't let anyone else serve me food except my wife.”
“I also have principles. Anyone can't enjoy the smell of my husband's clothes, so no one can wash my husband's clothes except me.” Aditya stunned. He never thought I could be so strong.
“Like it?”
“Never think that washing has no sharia in Islam. From the laundry, our prayers can be legitimate and illegitimate. I don't want to take any chances. It's not that I don't believe in Sindi, but please, your wife is really not willing when someone else is enjoying the smell of my husband's clothes.”
“Sayang . .I'm sorry ! I didn't know that my wife turned out to be that possessive.” Aditya hugged me tight. “ Okay, starting today, my wife will wash my clothes.” I smiled at her words. “But you still have to let me help you.” Reciprocity.
“Son't ever work, which might help wash. Let me just.”
“If you forbid, let Sindi wash it.” My husband pulled my hand.
“OK, okay, Brother can see me”
My husband ruffled my hood. Finally we both finished the laundry together, then sunbathe together and enjoy the morning together by cooking our favorite meal in the kitchen.
“Since you serve salted egg gourami at Bi Ijah's house, I've wanted to eat salted egg fish gourami every day, honey. Will my wife cook it for me today?”
I opened the fridge and I saw the contents, but I didn't find any fish there.
“There is only chicken and meat. Taka da fish here, Kak.”
“Yes already, today as it is. Next time you cook me a salted egg gourami.” I took the chicken out of the freezer, and I buried it so that the chicken would not freeze again. Smoothen the pepper-rica seasoning and steam the chicken that is not frozen by cutting small. Pour the water with panic presto, then I put the chicken pieces there. I put the lid on and I turn on the stove and I'll raise the chicken.
While waiting for the chicken to ripen, weed the green spinach and then I kiss and boil it in boiling water that I have given salt. Ten minutes later, the presto pot hissed. I turned off the stove and I poured steam in the panic by installing a spoon on the small button at the top of the panic presto lid. I lift the boiled spinach and put it on an oval plate that I have prepared since. I put pieces of carrots and sprouts into the water from the spinach stew for five minutes. After five minutes, I put it together with the spinach.
I prepared a skillet and I fried the pepper-rica seasoning then I put the tender chicken in the rica-rica seasoning that has been cooked.after all is ready, I arranged my cooking on the dinner table. My husband prepared plates and spoons and arranged them on the dinner table.
“God's love, amazing cooperation !” My mother-in-law was surprised to see the activities of both of us. Father-in-law and grandmother smiled at Mom's behavior.
“Everything looks perfect, dear,” said the grandmother who had been looking at me since.
“Thank you, Grandma. I didn't actually allow Brother Adit to help, but Kak Adit insisted, Grandma. Sorry for my sassness.” I said while holding in shame. I'm worried that the three of them won't be pleased with everything we've done.
“No darling. Let him help you. “Mother's words while hugging my body. “Mother believes you can change its potent nature.”
“I'm not a spoiled child, My dear mother.” Said Adit while hugging his mother. We just smile
“Yes, ever since you knew Marissa, you've turned one hundred and eighty degrees,”. All laughed at Aditya's attitude which patted his forehead.
“You don't trust them, baby. Since the first is actually an independent child Brother, only my parents often spoil me, so this is me.”
“Already, let's have breakfast !” Take Grandma while pushing her wheelchair towards the dining table. I served my husband and I served my grandmother. After that, I took the plate my husband had prepared, and we ate in silence.

“Honey, today Big Brother wants to show you something,”
I just scrunched my forehead. I don't understand what Adit said to me.
“Kakak want to show palagi to me?”
“Be beautiful dress up because I will introduce my wife to my friends.” He said while wearing the shirt I had prepared. After taking a shower I changed my clothes to a blue robe. I put on the motif veil and I rubbed my face with a little moisturizer. I applied a thin powder and I smeared lipstick red color. Without trying to show anyone my face, I ended up wearing a face mask.
“You don't wear veils, Darling ?” my husband's words made me doubt. Whether he's not pleased with my mask or he really wants me to wear a veil.
I immediately went to the bathroom and washed my face and went out to meet Aditya. Seeing all the makeup I cleaned, she scrunched her face.
“Yuk we leave !” I went ahead of my husband down the stairs.
“Wait !” I stopped my steps without looking.
“This time dress up ! I will introduce you to all my friends at my workplace.” she said while holding me and sitting me in the front seat of my dresser.
“I'm already beautiful, no need make up at all.” I'm upset.
“Solihah woman will never refuse her husband's wishes.” I finally got my moisturizer, and I put a little in my palm. I applied it slowly to my face, after dry I polished a little powder and lipstick like the one I just removed.
When all is done, I stand up.
“This is what I like about you. You always obey all my orders. Thank you, My Wife.” He took my hand and we walked to the back porch to meet my in-laws and grandmother. After saying goodbye, we left with Honda Jazz silver.
The car stopped at a restaurant on the ring road that became the main road to the capital of my province.Restauran nuanced young people. With selvi corner and beautiful garden in every corner. There is a fish pond, and a kambang hall, which can be used for fishing as well as cooking by visitors. The restaurant started getting crowded at lunchtime. We went in and sat down at the table that Aditya had ordered.
“Please see every corner of this restaurant!” her word. I was reluctant of what he was instructing. I felt like I needed to see it because from the very beginning my eyes had surrounded it.
“Why are you silent, dear ? Does my wife not like this place ?”
I saw his face for a moment.
“Why would you like to show me something, then why would Big Brother take me out to eat ? Risa is not wanting to eat, Kak.” Husband approaching. He grabbed my head and started to turn to the right, where I saw many people standing in different uniforms. Then he turned my head around to surround all corners of the angina eyes, and all I found was the same. A lot of people are standing around me. Their number was about fifty. I still don't understand what my husband has shown me.
After a few minutes around the corner of the room, finally some people opened a banner that read “Welcome Mrs Irawan Adityawarman”
I looked at my husband's face questioningly.
“We are ready to cooperate with you Mrs Aditya.” As they speak. I'm not getting the hang of what they just said.
“What does it mean?”
Aditya smile. He held my hands and kissed them many times.
“You just tell me, what is less than this restaurant ?” I just shook my head.
“All is perfect. You guys are perfect to make me confused, do not understand everything.”
“Sayang. It's yours !”I was surprised to hear everything.
“If you're joking don't overdo it, brother. How could this be mine.”
“Honey, this business has been built since five years ago. Mom and Dad don't know. If they find out, they'll get in my way. Because dad wanted me to inherit his business in the field of urban spatial design. Will my wife promise me to help me develop this ?”
I can't say anything. I never thought my husband would have more wealth than I've seen since yesterday. I never even thought that he was starting a business.
“Honey, are you mad at me?” he looked at me worriedly. His face was pale and to cover his nervousness he lowered his head.
“I really don't know what to say.”
“I'm sorry for never being honest all this time. I do this purely because I want to have a wife who really loves me for who I am, and nothing. Please promise to help me grow this business. Brother wants our children to be able to enjoy a better life, and have the best education, dear.”
“Thank you, Brother. This wife of yours cannot say anything seeing how much my husband is a very responsible person. I'm grateful God has sent Brother into my life.”
“Sister who should thank God, because He has sent an angel who is ready to accompany any Brother and whatever his circumstances. Did not see the amount of property she had and did not see her husband's caste.”
After visiting the restaurant, my husband once again took me to a place. This time arag Gebang rejo. I'm glad he took me to where we first met. But it turns out my guess was wrong. Before heading to the river with beautiful terracing, Aditya took me to a farm. He gave me a mask. Again I saw some people welcoming us.
“Welcome Mrs Irawan Adityawarman, we are ready to cooperate with you.”
I pulled my husband's arm and moved away from the people who had just welcomed me.
“Don't say that this is Sister's farm!”
“It does have us, darling. Forgive your husband!”
Once again I'm syock, with what I just saw.
“Yes Rabb, thank you for sending a husband who hid his wealth to others. Even though he is rich, may he still carry out all obligations as Your servant.”
“Aamiin. I promise you to keep it as simple as Mrs Adityawarman.” wishes
“Do not according to the wishes of Mrs Adityawarman, but according to the guidance of the Sharia of Allah.”
“Yes, according to the Messenger of Allah's commandment. Insha Allah”
