Turning Point

SIXTY

"I was just resting my body for a while, just a moment!!", said Lintang cut Agum's speech with tears that he could no longer bear.

"In fact other housewives, they can also handle everything. They can take care of the house, take care of the child, take care of the husband and take care of themselves", replied Agum arguing.

The latitude is getting sobbing. She does not believe, her husband compares himself to others. He tried to wipe his tears. "Try me a day, you are _____________________"

"Mother?!", call Nana who was suddenly in the kitchen following Latang and Agum.

Lintang rubbed the remains of her tears that were still dripping. I smiled at Nana. "Yes baby?"

"Take hold!", pinta Nana. Lintang then carried his daughter.

Nana looked at her mother's face. "Mother's eyes why did the water come out?, mother crying? ",A,

Lintang tried to calm his own heart. "Don't love, you're not crying. Mother was just flickering"

Nana's gaze turned to Agum who was just silent and standing at the corner of the dining table. "Dad shouldn't be naughty, don't make you sad"

"I went to the room first mas" said Lintang while leaving Agum with Nana who was still in her carrier.

Agum felt pinched hearing his son's words. The stinginess of guilt had treated Lintang like that. But how else, his feelings for Lintang began to erode so that it made him that hard to Lintang.

While in Ranti's mother's room which was located not far from the kitchen, the middle-aged woman was seen shedding tears. His heart felt tight when he heard Agum speak like that to Lintang. He looked at the ceiling of his room with a glare.

You really outrageous Gum, you don't know how troublesome Lintang is to take care of this all on its own. You should thank Lintang for the duty you should have done to me, being replaced by him.

*************

Lintang sat pensively on the edge of the bed where Nana was sound asleep. He looked at his daughter's face. He rubbed his head gently with a smile from his lips.

You are the source of your strength baby, when everyone even your own father can not see what you have done, but you are at the front to defend your mother.

Suddenly her tears melted. His heart felt so torn when he remembered the words spoken by Agum earlier. Undue words came out of his mouth, which made him more and more like a wife who did not care for the household.

Chequek...

Someone opened the door to his room, and Agum was seen entering the room. Lintang's hurry immediately wiped her tears.

Lintang turned towards Agum and their eyes met. "Yes?"

Agum took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly. "I'm sorry, for what I said. I was just feeling tired, so it spontaneously made me say something like that"

Latitude scanned Agum's facial expression. "If we talk tired, we are both tired. But isn't it our shared responsibility as husband and wife?, you have work obligations and I help take care of all the needs at home, from taking care of mom, taking care of Nana, and I help take care of all the needs at home, take care of the house, and take care of you"

Agum did not budge in the slightest. Lintang tried to master her emotions so that even in this state, she did not speak harshly in front of her husband.

"I'm just a normal human being, who's tired. So am I wrong if I want to rest for a moment?, one state of the house in your eyes like a broken ship turns out to have closed your eyes to see other things that I have done. Is that fair to me mas?, is it fair?", continued Lintang while crying sobbing.

The body of the latitude seemed to tremble. She really could not believe that what she had done was only getting a scorn from her husband.

Agum also felt more guilty. After all it has gone too far against latitude. Agum stood up and sat on the Latitude side then he pulled her into his arms.

"I'm sorry deck, I'm sorry", said Agum lirih.

Lintang cried so badly in Agum's arms. "Never do this again, please give me strength too, so that I can be a good wife, mother and daughter-in-law to our family"

Agum rubbed the head of the latitude. "Yes deck, once again I'm sorry"

Lintang tried to stop her sobs. "I'm sorry if I haven't been able to be the perfect wife for you, but please, please don't ever underestimate or demean what I've done"

Agum nodded and hugged Lintang even tighter. Yes, now Lintang began to feel calm while in the arms of her husband. She never demanded anything from Agum, all she needed was a support from her husband. A support that will certainly make him stronger through his days.
