The Sugar Mommy

Money Shipped For Rian

It's been a month since Rian went to town to work. During their separation, their communication is normal as the husband and wife are separated. It is not uncommon for Elsa to complain of missing Rian every day. Faqih who is sometimes fussy since there is no Rian at home. But Rian continued to persuade Elsa, giving understanding to his wife. That this is only temporary until their financial condition improves. At least Rian and Elsa have future savings for their only son.

That afternoon, Elsa was cooking for herself. Elsa buys tempeh and eggs at Bu Marni's shop. Speaking of the cost of eating Elsa daily given by Rian—ia borrowed money to the Judge before leaving. Because other than Rian, Elsa doesn't work. Therefore, the judge agreed by lending a sum of money that would later be deducted the first salary of Rian while working in the city.

Outside Elsa's courtyard, Mak Ratih walks quickly to deliver the happy news to Elsa. Mak Ratih almost fell if he did not have a good body balance. Understandably, Mak Ratih has worked hard since a young age.

"Generic, Elsa ..." Mak Ratih has reached the door of Elsa's house. His hand raised up and knocked on the thing before him.

Elsa's daydream fell apart instantly upon hearing a familiar voice outside. Elsa answered Mak Ratih's greeting. "Waalaikumsalam, Mother. Come in," said Elsa stepped near the door to welcome the arrival of Mak Ratih.

"Sa, there is good news for you and Faqih!" exclaim Mak Ratih enthusiastic.

"What's the news, Mama?" elsa asked confusedly. The two women of different ages were talking to each other in the doorway. Elsa soon realized, she then invited Mak Ratih into the house so that she could talk more comfortably.

"I'll get you a drink first, Mom. Mak's breath to ngosan kayak that." Mak Ratih nodded. He lets Elsa leave herself to take a glass of water to the kitchen.

Mak Ratih breathing. Several times he took a breath, then exhaled slowly on a regular basis.

Mak Ratih is too happy with the news that he will tell Elsa soon.

She thinks Elsa is like her own daughter. Mak Ratih will be sad if Elsa is sad. And vice versa.

Not long after, Elsa returned with a glass of water in her hand. Elsa immediately thrust her glass in front of Mak Ratih.

"Thank you, Sa." Mak Ratih sipped the water bit by bit.

Elsa takes a seat next to Mak Ratih. Elsa was confused as to why the middle-aged woman came here while running. Mak Ratih was a calm, relaxed figure, hence Elsa's astonishment.

Mak Ratih's breathing slowly began to settle down after drinking the water. Elsa then rebukes Mak Ratih. "What's up to running around here? You're okay, right?" ask Elsa to worry.

"Mak is happy, Sa!" Elsa frowned. "You know, this morning Rian sent money to Mak through the Judge's account number. He's already sent his first paycheck, Sa!"

"Mak Ratih didn't lie, did he?" Elsa was silent for a moment. "But .. instead of Mas Rian's salary is up to pay the debt to the Judge huh, Mak? Mas Rian shouldn't have been able to send money to the village."

Mak Ratih held Elsa's hand. "You should give thanks a lot, Sa! In town, Rian got a really good boss! Because Rian's work is also good, so Rian's bonus during work can be liquid on the same day he pays!" mak Ratih exclaims.

"Mom, really?" elsa's pair of eyes stared at the twinkle. His lips were gaping, his hands were clenching his lips in disbelief.

"Really, Sa! How could Mak lie to you." Mak Ratih was so happy that he hugged Elsa. The two women laughed happily, Elsa even shed her tears.

"O Allah, Mak .. alhamdulillah ..." Elsa hugs Mak Ratih.

"Whatever the number is, Mom, I'm so grateful. Mas Rian has been working hard in the city," said Elsa giving thanks. "Thank you very much, Mom. If there were no Judge and Mak Ratih, maybe Mas Rian could not have gotten a better job like now. We owe a lot of gratitude to Mak Ratih, and the Judge." Elsa hugged Mak Ratih once again.

"Already, Sa. It's been. Mom go home and get the ATM, yeah. You will go straight to the house. We leave from there," said Mak Ratih, then stood up from his seat.

Elsa put on a knit hat for Faqih. Because the weather lately is erratic. Sometimes it's hot, it's cloudy, and then it's raining. Elsa takes care of Faqih's health. Elsa also wears a jacket to her son's body.

Finished wearing a jacket and hat so that the son's body remains warm, Elsa carried Faqih out of the house. Not to forget Elsa locked the door of her house first.

Since Elsa and Mak Ratih had made a pact to depart from the middle-aged woman's house, Elsa went there. Mak Ratih must have been waiting for him.

At the same time Elsa came, Mak Ratih was locking the door of her house. Elsa greeted the middle-aged woman. "Mom, are you ready?" tanyakanya. "I think I'm gonna be late. But good, so that Mak Ratih is not too long waiting for me. I'm not good with Mak, because it's been a lot of trouble."

Mak Ratih finished locking the door of his house. The middle-aged woman stuffed the keys to her house into her dress pocket. "Okay, Sa! Like whoever you are ..." Mak Ratih held Elsa's arm towards the courtyard.

"But really, Mom. I'm getting worse and worse. When can I return the favor to Mak Ratih?" muttered Elsa.

"Don't tell me that, Sa. There is no debt between us. Mak same Judge sincerely helps you and Rian ..." Mak Ratih looked at Elsa with the look of a mother who loved her daughter. "As long as you and Rian are happy, Mak is happy."

The distance to the ATM is quite far. Mak Ratih and Elsa have to take public transport to get there.

Elsa holds the door when Mak Ratih will enter the ATM booth. Because Elsa does not have her own ATM, therefore during Rian payday, it will be transferred to Mak Ratih's account.

Elsa's heart was racing. This is how it feels to receive a husband's salary, huh? During this time Elsa only received Rian's salary as a pelvic porters, or handyman. This is the first time Elsa feels Rian's pay as a permanent worker.

Elsa stared at the screen—contains the nominal money Mak Ratih himself. Either way, Rian sent Elsa the amount.

Mak Ratih is pulling in quite a lot of money. At least ten million rupiahs. Elsa thought, Mak Ratih all took money for her. However, the money to actually belong to Elsa.

"Here, it's all money sent from Rian." Mak Ratih disbursed the money to Elsa.

"Mak .. This is not wrong, right?" Elsa doesn't believe it. His eyes bought wide.
