THIRD WIFE AND SECOND HUSBAND
* BIRTH MARRIAGE *
"What did you make? " ask me as I approach my mother in the kitchen.
"For tea, why Vita? " my mother answered, look at me and stir the tea.
"Oh yes already mah I went to the room for a while to change clothes huh mah. "
I stared for a while at my mother's back, which was starting to look vulnerable due to age. then I left my mother alone in the kitchen and went to the room I had always left but was always tidy even though I no longer occupied it.
After I change my clothes back to the living room right where Mas Arif and my mother when talking about serious things, read from their tense look.
I stopped my steps when I said my mother, I heard her words, it felt tight in my heart and maybe it was also what Arif felt as my mother's interlocutor.
"So you're the one who ruined my daughter's life and smeared the shit on our faces? what sin did my daughter commit so you can destroy her future huh?! " angry and disappointed that is what is seen behind the look on my mother's face even though it is forced to toughen up
"Sorry ma'am, I will be in charge ma'am, I will marry Vita but for now I can only marry betel ma'am. " mas Arif's face was just sitting down unable to stare at the sharp look of my mother's eyes.
"What?! " the sharper the eyes of the mother heard the man's confession, so did I who could not understand why mas Arif could only marry me betelih.
"What princess do you think you want to marry sirih huh?! " my mother snapped making my niche shake wanting to scream and apologize to her.
"Sorry ma'am, I am currently unable to go home to take care of her ssma. "the reason again the man fortunately looking for a way for my mother to agree.
His anger at a glance began to subside only the tightness felt by my mother, as well as I who accidentally heard the man's words.....
Plaque.
With indignation slap my mother just landed on the cheek of the man, although it looks not sick because my mother's energy is old at eating age.
I ran to the seat and could not believe what my mother was doing to surprise me.
"Yeahhh.... "
Just a pushy look I saw from the sharp look in my mother's eyes I was unable to open the words again only able to untangle the tears that I could no longer hold and finally spilled also the buluran those tears.
No words from my mother's lips that can make me a little calm, only her gaze that still speaks signifies not agreeing to a betel marriage for her daughter.
"Well, I'm pregnant, I'm pregnant with Arif mah's child, "my mother's gaze seemed to not believe what I said.
"What?! why are you smearing dirt on your mama Vita's face? what is wrong until you hurt your mother's heart? " my mother's cries broke upon hearing my confession.
"I'm sorry, ma'am." I bowed to my mother's feet asking for forgiveness that hurt her.
"Alright if you are in need of religious marriage, you can't say anything." mother rubbed tears that fell between the two cheeks that have now been seen between her wrinkles.
"I forgive Vita mah. "again I beg forgiveness for the wrong I have done to create a wound in my mother's heart.
"Thank you ma'am has given us permission to get married even if only betel. "there was no answer from my mother for what the man said, just looking back at her with a sharp glare.
"So when was your wedding? I don't want the neighbors to know that my daughter was pregnant before the cobul ijab. "
"Faster is better mom, before her belly looks enlarged mom. "mas Arif turned to look up with a smile of victory over the blessing imposed from my mother.
"Dek, I have to go back to the office because there is an important meeting today, you do not work again on the deck, "I just nodded and obeyed the request of my future husband.
"Two more days mas will come to bring penghulu and witnesses for us to marry later, so you are ready when mas dateng. "
I nodded in response to the agreed word the man said. After the end of the problem that made us had a tense whistling finally mas Arif permission to resign to return to his office.
I drove him to the doorway and saw some people and then walked away on his own.
When I turned to the side of the left side, I saw Nur's mother, the neighbor was always kind and kind to our family.
"Assalamuaikum bu Nur. " with courtesy I greet women who are the same age as mothers.
"Walaikum salam Vita, well how are you how have you seen Vita? " nur's mother turned to someone who was standing not far from me the handsome man with a sturdy body only reviewed his small smile when returning the gaze of Nur's mother.
"aaaiiiihhhh... Who is Vita? handsome bangettt. "I glanced at the man who was appointed by Nur's mother, and smiled when I looked back at Nur's maam who admired the figure of Arif mas.
"The future husband of Ms. Nur. "my neighbor just gawked without blinking, his eyes were not only round as if he was about to come out of his mouth gaping as if he wanted to annex whatever was in front of him.
I spread her daydreams that I did not know what lay in her heart so that I thought something about our relationship.
Mas Arif just gave a smile to see the reaction of this gibah queen as if not believing by my words that justify her as my future husband.
"Dek.. mas back to the office first yes, you are well at home do not be too tired to remember your current condition." romantically kissed the back of my head.
"Yes, be careful on the road and don't forget to tell me when you get to the office. "
The man entered at the steering wheel door after saying his greetings and did not forget to say goodbye to my neighbor who had just seenaya not believing that the handsome man was my future husband.
After I didn't see Arif's silver car left my parents' yard, I went back into the house and did not forget the prestige of the queen who did not respond to my words.
