The Third Party

The Third Party
7. Dinner



"What the hell is so noisy?!"


"Mom asked you to wash your clothes."


"Yes .. Yes !!! I'll wash it!!!" answer Heni with a sniff.


"Huh, what the fuck did you tell Heni to do the laundry?! I told you why did you tell Heni to do it?!" My in-laws showed up while carrying Damar.


"Don't Heni usually wash his own clothes? Why should I wash it now? Heni has hands and feet. His body is healthy too. He can wash his clothes himself!" I dare to argue because I'm really tired.


"How dare you?!"


"I've done my job. Now I just want to take care of my son!"


"Finish your work first, otherwise I won't give Damar to you!" my in-laws.


"Mom, Damar my son. How can you behave like that?!"


"Heh, you've been staying here all this time doing nothing. Heni takes care of this house while you're busy working. You are no longer working! Now it's your turn to take care of the house, let Heni do what he likes!" said my in-laws while taking Damar away.


I don't accept. What kind of rules is this?! I followed my in-laws but it was too late because she had locked her room.


"Bus ... Give Damar to me. Let me suckle him first" I said, knocking on the door. I waited for a while but there was no reply from inside the room. I don't have a choice. Finally I went back to the laundry room and washed Heni's clothes.


I want to cry it feels. Why am I so hard to be with my son? With teary eyes I put Heni's clothes in the washing machine.


"Oh ... Have you washed? Yes, yes" said Heni without feeling the slightest guilt. His tone also sounded like he was mocking me.


Suddenly I heard the sound of Damar crying. I wanted to run immediately to calm him down but Heni prevented me. He gave me an ASI bottle and asked me to pump an ASI. "The streak before your child cries gets louder!" said it.


"Why do I have to use a bottle if I'm around and be able to breastfeed it straight away?!"


"Because your work is not done. That's why you follow my mother's orders!"


I can't speak. Why are my in-laws so cruel to me? I can't even figure out how such a gentle Handi was born from a cruel woman like her mother.


"Why daydream?! Hurry up pump your ASI, don't you pity to hear your son's cry? Or did I tell my mother that Damar should be given water?!"


"No, no!" I rushed to my room to pump my ASI and handed it to Heni.


"Better from now on you set ASI a lot!" heni said as he passed from before me.


Angry, sad and upset mixed into one. Tears welled up in my eyes but I had no time to cry. I rushed back to the laundry room.


"I have to finish this. That way I can be with Damar soon," I murmured. It didn't take me long to finish the laundry.


I wanted to go immediately to my in-laws room to take Damar, but seeing my body still dirty and smelly I broke my intentions. I haven't had a shower since morning so I decided to take a shower first.


After the shower I felt fresh and my mood had improved. I'm ready to take my Damar from her grandmother's room. But I haven't been able to step over Heni has faced me.


"Mom asked you to go shopping for vegetables."


"What now?" much


Heni nodded. "If the bad luck will be the vegetables have withered. You better hurry," Heni replied in an irritating tone.


"Because usually I'm so it's your turn now!"


Oh my God ... This mother and son are both annoying to me. I couldn't wait to hold my son, but my test wasn't over.


I rushed to the nearest vegetable shop. I buy vegetables and side dishes that I like whether they like it or not. They've fucked me so I want to pay them back.


At home I put my groceries in the kitchen and went straight to my in-laws room. I want to see my son. This time my mother-in-law had to hand my son over to me for no more reason.


"Mom, can I see Damar?" I asked while knocking on the door.


A few seconds later my in-laws room door was opened. My in-laws looked at me with probing gazes.


"My work is done, I've also been shopping for vegetables" I explained. "Now I want to be with Damar."


There was no more reason for my in-laws to avoid giving Damar to me. All the work I've done, the house is done and everything is done.


Finally my in-laws gave Damar to me. How happy I was because I could only hear her crying. Immediately I brought Damar to my room. Only half a day did not meet but it felt like a week.


In the afternoon my in-laws were back. He came to my room to take Damar because I had to cook for dinner. I did it because I had prepared a reply for my mother-in-law and her favorite son Heni.


I would cook shrimp that Heni was clearly allergic to and also vegetable lodeh because I knew my in-laws avoided coconut milk. I don't care if the two foods don't match that obviously I just want to avenge their actions. Who told them to stop me from being with my son?!


After cooking I went to my in-laws.


"Mother dinner's ready." Hearing my words my in-laws immediately handed Damar over to me.


"There call Heni to make dinner!" My in-laws told me to. Without Handi I really considered like a maid in this house.


Not long ago we gathered in the dining room. Both my in-laws and Heni glared at the dishes I served at the dinner table.


"What the fuck? What are you cooking?! You know I can't eat coconut food? You also know Heni's shrimp allergy?!"


"Since when did Heni have shrimp allergies? And mothers also since when not to eat coconut milk food? I remember you loved eating gulai? Isn't that coconut milk even fatty?!"


"That was it then?! Now I'm forbidden to eat coconut food."


"Sorry Mom, I don't know," I said when I did it on purpose.


"What are you doing Emma?"


"I forgot that you're allergic to Hen shrimp, so next time it's better for you to shop!"


"Keep now how? What do I eat?!"


"You can eat lodeh vegetables, while you can eat shrimp. If you don't like it ... You can order food outside" I replied indifferently.


I'm sure they wouldn't want to do that because they're both stingy. My in-laws were too stingy to buy Heni food. While Heni has already gone down the stingy nature of his mother. He would not be willing to spend money to buy food even for his own mother.


"Emma, please order food online. Where to eat lodeh vegetables!"
