Toxic In-Law Shackles

Chapter 3

With full consideration, Bella finally forgave her husband's mistakes for the good of the child. Bella doesn't want her son to grow up without the full affection of her parents.

A few days passed. Bella begins to forget the events of the day and returns to her usual duties. But still in the end her mother-in-law still make it difficult for Bella and fights always occur with her husband.

Even now Abimana is getting rough on him. Apologies and regrets last time were like the wind that just blew without leaving a trace.

The pain that Bella felt was deeper in Bella's heart, but only sorry that Bella could do at this time.

Wailing for his life can not be restrained and held again. Until finally Bella thought to change the view of her mother-in-law towards him. Bella could not stand if every day always at odds with her mother-in-law who always blamed her in everything.

"Maybe making peace with the wound is better." Mumbled Bella, who is now approaching her mother-in-law who is sitting relaxing in front of the television enjoying her favorite drama.

"Mom, do you need anything?" Bella asked meekly to start opening talks between them.

"No!" Ms. Maya answered tightly, without distracting her from the drama she was watching.

"Mother, can we reconcile being a daughter-in-law and in-law who get along like that mother's favorite drama? Bella has been very tired of our fighting drama that always happens every day. If Bella's wrong, please tell Bella where she's wrong so that Bella can fix everything the way she wants." Bella said at length.

But Maya's mother didn't listen to what Bella said. His eyes were focused on the television screen and did not care about Bella's current questions.

Bella sighed slowly, as she saw that her mother-in-law did not care what she was saying right now.

"Allah give your servant infinite patience, make him a forgiving servant, and keep him from the vengeance that will be a bondage in the heart of the servant." Inner Bella monologues, looks at Maya's mother at a glance and she also prefers to leave her mother-in-law.

Now Maya's mother smiles cynically when she sees her daughter-in-law leaving her. "Who do you think can rule my life? don't expect you to get into the criteria of my dream daughter-in-law, let alone you equate yourself with the characters in my favorite drama." Maya's mother muttered hatefully.

Inside Bella's room wept lamenting the fate of her unfortunate marriage. Even every day Bella will feel heartache because the husband who can never understand her suffering and be his support when she is sad.

"I want our marriage to be the same as it used to be, I want us to live happily before there was a mother. But that doesn't mean I hate your mother's presence in this house. I just want mom's attitude to be softer and understand me." Bella said in her tears.

During this time he always tried to be the ideal son-in-law for his mother-in-law, but only the pain and harsh treatment he got as a reciprocal of his sincerity and kindness.

However, there will always be medicine in Bella's broken heart. Only her son was able to keep her calm and survive in a house that was like hell for her, living with her husband and mother-in-law.

Bella gently rubbed her son's hair which was now asleep. Every night, Bella would cry while hugging her child until Bella would fall asleep on her own. Bella always prayed, hoping that someday her husband and mother-in-law would be aware and understand the pain she had been experiencing.

"Patience Bella, everything will be fine." The muttering of Bella who was now starting to close her eyes to rest calmed her tired heart and mind.

Morning as usual before going to work Bella does household chores first.

"Some time ma!" Zayn came out of his room in full uniform to prepare to go to school.

"Mother's coming." Excited Maya's mother who is now a little run over to her granddaughter and daughter-in-law.

"Where are you going?"

"Of course mommy's taking the granddaughter, don't you like mom coming with you? mom's been here a long time but I don't know where my granddaughter goes to school. I want to see it now."

"But ma'am, after delivering Zayn I go to work immediately, if I return to deliver mother, I will definitely be late again I beg you to understand for today Bella can not ma'am, Bella can't, another day, huh?" Bella begged her mother-in-law to understand.

But Maya's mother remained adamant with her stance, until Bella finally relented and brought her mother-in-law along with her.

Along the way Maya's mother stares at the atmosphere of the city that seems so unfamiliar to her, and along the way Maya's mother always asks Bella everything she sees.

Bella patiently answered questions for her mother-in-law. Bella was very understanding of her mother-in-law's curiosity, because in the village is not like in the city where all the hunters there are high-rise buildings.

"This is Zayn ma'am's school." Said Bella who now pulled over her car and prepared to take her son into the classroom.

"Waaah... Kindergarten only school children as big and luxurious, would pay very expensive." Cerocos bu Maya who unceasingly stared at every corner of the building.

Bella just smiled faintly shaking her head. After the completion of delivering her son to school, Bella will return to deliver her mother-in-law home with a little anxiety. He was very afraid that today he would be late again.

"This is the umpteenth time I've been late and the boss has warned me. I hope today I'm not late for the morning meeting, otherwise. I don't know what's going to happen tomorrow.

Bella slightly increased her speed so that she was not late, but Maya's mother cried out in fear asking Bella to lower her speed.

"Do you want this old woman to die of a heart attack!" Maya's mother stares in annoyance at her daughter-in-law.

While Bella was just silent not to say the words of her mother-in-law, at this time she did not want to make a scene that would eventually harm herself.

"It's up to Mom."

"Based on disrespectful son-in-law!" Maya's mother immediately got out of her daughter-in-law's car and closed the car door very roughly.

Bella held onto her chest which was shocked by her mother-in-law's barbaric actions. "Astagfirullah, why is mom always like that. What exactly is my fault?" Bella really does not understand the way her mother-in-law's mind.

"I hope you don't complain about anything that doesn't happen to Mas Abi." Mumbled Bella, who began to drive her car across the street to where she worked with concern.
