The Sugar Mommy

Neighbors Want to

The more days it feels better, that's what Elsa feels after what she received from Rian makes her no longer need to be confused to eat and buy other necessities.

Yes, the worry she felt was replaced with happiness from her husband because obviously thanks to Rian all the debts can be paid off without making Elsa confused how to pay her like before.

Seeing what happened to Elsa obviously made Mak Ratih happy, she was even told by Elsa to drive to the gold shop because the woman wanted to buy gold from her husband's hard work.

"It's good no, Mom? Is it suitable for me to wear?" Elsa wears a luxurious necklace that costs of course expensive, but instead of envy Mak Ratih even looks happy if Elsa can rise from her slump.

"Good for you, Elsa. You fit in any necklace."

"really?" Hearing that of course Elsa was happy, praise from Mak Ratih even almost she heard every day, it felt like Elsa was getting better because she was surrounded by people who did not envy at all what she got from the results of her husband's efforts.

It might sound wrong if Elsa thought so simply. People are not not jealous unless they do not know if Elsa's life has changed, she is no longer economically troubled.

Right after he came home from the gold shop, Elsa and Mak Ratih found people staring at them with envious gazes every once in a while they were whispering.

Realizing that Elsa was feeling a little uneasy what else their limelight was the necklace she had just bought in the gold shop with Mak Ratih earlier.

"How is this, Mama? Why are people looking at me with that kind of look?" elsa lowered her head and tried to ignore what those people were doing to her.

"Just leave it, Elsa. You don't have to worry about such unimportant things, just assume they don't exist" Mak Ratih replied earnestly because after all being Elsa wasn't an easy thing to do.

"But their gazes really made me feel uneasy, were they envious? It's all the result of my husband working in the city, Mom," Elsa said as if defending herself, but that's what people were talking about. Yes, about the figure of Rian who can quickly send money to Elsa even though she only worked in the city for a few days.

Despite that, Elsa is not willing to think about it at all because she thinks that everything she wears is the result of her husband's efforts, she thinks Rian is working hard in the city, making Elsa not want to think anything about her husband.

Faqih continued to cry, what else Elsa felt if her child was in a fever, obviously she felt panic because the day was getting night and there was no way that public transportation could take her to the hospital.

Several times Elsa patted Faqih's back slowly, her fever was getting higher so she had to turn the way in order to take her child to the hospital.

Hearing the cry of Elsa's son makes Mak Ratih instantly come even though he has to wake up from his sleep, seeing Elsa who only lives with her son makes Mak Ratih unable to not care.

"Why, Elsa? Is Faqih okay?" ask Mak Ratih who just came.

Elsa shook her head then replied, "Faqih has a fever, Mak. I don't know how to get him to the hospital because it's getting late, there's no way a vehicle can get through."

"Wouldn't we ask a neighbor for help to bring Faqih to the hospital?" The idea of Mak Ratih clearly made Elsa instantly shake her head, she knew that the neighbors next to her house did not like her at all.

"Therefore we have no other choice, Elsa. Don't think about it, think about Faqih's health." Doubtfully Elsa stared at the door of her house, she was very hesitant to ask for help from neighbors next to or in front of her house, let alone making her sure that no one would help her.

But there is no harm in trying, right? Elsa ventured because of everything she did for Faqih, she did not want her son why-why.

He knocked one door to the other, but no one was willing to open the door for Elsa to make the woman immediately shed her tears.

"How is this, Mama? No one's gonna help me." Elsa almost gives up, but suddenly one neighbor opens the door for Elsa and lets her in.

"What's up, Elsa? Why are nights like this knocking on our door?" ask Elsa's neighbor kindly.

"Look, Mom. I want to ask Mom for help to take my son to the hospital in your car, I will pay whatever origin my child can be handled quickly by the doctor" Elsa explained.

"Why with Faqih? Is he sick?"

Elsa nodded her head. "Fever, what else is the fever is not down, ma'am. I'm very worried."

"Well, I'll take you to the hospital, quickly prepare Faqih's belongings." Elsa, who heard this, smiled, hoping that her son would be okay.

***

Elsa was almost desperate because no neighbors would help her before. Luckily, there are still good people who want to drive themselves to the hospital to check on Faqih.

"How, Doctor? Is my son okay?" elsa asked with a hopeful look.

"Only a common fever, there is no need to worry too much because I have prepared medicine for your child to drink later," replied the doctor who examined the state of Faqih.

Of course Elsa was happy about it, she thanked the neighbors who would help her take them to the hospital several times, clearly if Faqih is not immediately taken to the hospital then the child will get worse.

"Mom, thank you for helping me, thanks to you my son is fine" Elsa said.

"We should help each other, Elsa. If there's anything you can ask for my help again" neighbor Elsa said with sincerity.

Elsa nodded her head, she certainly could not believe that any neighbors would help her, let alone in such a precarious moment like now.

However, since Mak Ratih had noticed the neighbor who kindly brought them to the hospital, Mak Ratih felt like the middle-aged woman was using Elsa for the benefit sooner or later, but Mak Ratih can't tell Elsa now for fear of unwanted things.
