The Wife (The Persecuted Wife)

Wants to Work

Self-worth? Elno herself did not know what it meant. For him right now is getting money halal. He needs rupiah coffers for the sake of the family.

She wants to be a maid or a lackey, even if she wants to be. They pay for the services that Elno sells. Currently his strength is needed by his campus friends.

"This is the drinking water" Elno said, handing one bottle to five male friends, including Tedi and Ilmi.

Elno can profit twenty thousand proceeds from buying a drink. Sari noticed. He was sorry for Elno's hard work. Not that Sari did not hear when Ilmi and other friends were talking about Elno.

"Bawain my shoes, El," said Ilmi.

"okay!" elno Sahut.

Sari and Tedi who saw it just kept quiet because Ilmi paid Elno today. Another friend also asked to bring their sports bag to the motorbike parking lot.

"Let me help" said Sari.

"No need. I can do it myself, really," said Elno.

"You work hard, El."

"Yes. I need it for my son and my wife" Elno said.

"Oh, yes, congratulations to you. I heard from Tedi that Kara gave birth."

"thank you. By the way, are you dating Tedi?" ask Elno.

"No. We're not schoolmates."

"You're the only one who's different, but still stuck."

Sari smiled. "My house isn't that far from Tedi."

"Well! Tedi's good, tuh. If it hurts just run to your house. Counting practice."

"You're talking to me, aren't you?" sahut Tedi walks with Elno and Sari.

"Elno says that you are sick just inject," said Sari.

"Relieve it! Although you will be a famous doctor, I will not treat you," said Tedi.

"Mongan. You yourself are looking for Sari," said Elno.

"What can I do if there's only Doctor Sari in the world." Tedi nudged Sari's shoulder.

Sari grunting. He quickly followed Ilmi who was in the front row. Tedi chased after her and came back to tease the girl. Elno just shook her head to see them. Times like that are gone from him.

...****************...

On the way to the house, Elno stopped by the nearest minimarket. He bought a baby pacifier and a medium-fill disposable diaper. Elno also stopped by a fruit vendor shop to buy one comb banana.

"I'm sure surprised I shopped a lot. Later in the afternoon take Kara for a walk with Finola as well," muttered Elno, then continued the journey.

The sun was rising, but Elno had not yet returned. Kara deliberately waits in front of the house while looking after Finola. Hot weather. The fan is still lacking to remove the sultry in the body.

Kara smiled at Elno from afar. He stood up. His eyes led to the groceries that were on the motorbike hanger.

Elno intentionally sounded the horn. Kara quickly put her index finger to her lips because Finola was taking a nap.

"Run in the morning, but it's noon home" Kara said.

"Look, Honey. What did I bring?" elno said while patting the plastic groceries. He took off his helmet, then went down.

"White money from where?"

"work. Ilmi called to help her with the bag" Elno said.

Kara's smile disappeared. "Bawain bag?"

Elno looked at Kara. "If prestige will not get money."

"You're Ilmi's errand boy?" ask Kara.

"It's important to have money."

"Dear." Elno approaching. "I'm fine."

"Yes, I understand. Let's just go in."

"You boiled the banana. I want to do the job. Oh, how are we going for a walk in the afternoon?" haggard Elno.

"Labour not?"

"I came in at six in the afternoon" said Elno.

"Yes. We go for a walk" Kara said, giving Elno a sweet smile.

...****************...

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Kara was ready to go on the road with her husband. Little Finola is also beautiful with warm clothes worn. Elno will take the two to the park.

"This is the first time Finola has gone so far. Surely you are happy," said Elno as she kissed her daughter's forehead.

"Finola also wants to see the afternoon sky" said Kara.

"Come, up." Elno patted the seat of her motorcycle.

Elno went up first. Followed by Kara in the back. The engine is turned on, then Elno starts riding his motorbike at medium speed.

"It's been a long time since I walked" said Kara.

"Remember the time we were dating. Those times are cool, right?"

"Yes" answered Kara. It doesn't feel satisfied.

"You just calm down. I'll find time for us together. Pray for this husband."

"El, why don't you just work in a cafe. Working at a nightclub takes up too much of your time" Kara said.

"His face is bigger there, honey. You know our needs a lot. Never mind. We'll talk about it again. It's time we had fun."

Elno drove a motorcycle to the city park. Kara smiled when she arrived. Elno parked her duck between two-wheeled vehicles.

"It's been a long time since I've been here" Kara said.

"Me too" said Elno.

"Darling, look. We're at the park" Kara told Finola.

"Finola is sleeping. Come on, get up, honey." Elno menoel-noel cheeks her daughter.

Finola just squirms. His eyes refused to open. Kara smiled at the behavior of her little daughter.

"Finola sleeps because it's taken to the road" Kara said.

"We just sit there" said Elno, then accompanied his wife to a park bench.

Visitors are quite crowded. There was a relaxing afternoon. Just going for a walk with their kids. Cycling and afternoon running. The scenery was enough to wash Kara's eyes after a long silence at home.

"I want to work, El. Count to help you" Kara said.

"What work? We have a baby."

"I don't know either. Yeah, too, anyway. Finola can't be left. But selling tissue at red lights is no problem. There are, really, mothers bring children while selling," said Kara.

"The finola is too small. He also still suckles. Sales also need capital, dear."

"yes too. Find hard money apparently. We used to ask for it" Kara said.

"You are patient. I'll graduate college soon. I'll find a job."

"Yes. I'm sure we can deal with all this" Kara said.
