Tyranny Mother-in-Law

Seruni Go

"Mother? What are you doing at the factory?" The god was surprised when he saw that Bu Mirna was already sitting while holding a canting about to scratch on the cloth in front of him.

"You don't see, what's your mother doing?"

Dewa glanced at Mbak Nur who was beside Bu Mirna who was batiking as well.

"So, I asked for help to be taught to batik, Mas. To be able to understand the factory that has been built by Mr. Widodo so far."

Mama explained. Women who have been serving in the factory for a dozen years as genuine batikers, patiently helping and teaching Ms. Mirna to scratch the canting that contains the night on the cloth so that it is neat.

The god took a chair and sat down beside his mother while paying attention.

"You don't work? Even look at mom!"

Miss Mirna glanced at the God.

"Tumbens?"

There's no word from the next Miss Mirna. He was still busy scraping the affected canting of the night following the path painstakingly to finish the not-so-big cloth.

"Serunis suing Bram for divorce." Mirna looked at the God.

"Huh? Whahuh? What reason?"

The god brought his head close to his mother's face.

"God, did Seruni enter today? You never pay attention to your family! I'm looking for Bima, but until now there hasn't been a nose stick, and then Seruni has gone somewhere?"

"Seruni's still on maternity leave, ma'am. So I don't know where he is right now. Is there nothing in his house?"

"If Seruni were in her house, I wouldn't go here!" Sahut Bu Mirna with ketus.

"Loh, I know, Seruni is suing for divorce how?"

The god frowned.

Bu Mirna glanced at Nur, a factory employee who was still busy batiking, as if not responding to them, but was very enthusiastic to listen to Bu Mirna's words.

Ms. Mirna stood up, then pulled the arm of the God into Bima's office space.

"Sir and Bu Bagyo came to the house this morning. They were looking for Seruni who left the house while carrying Regas. Bram was silent, not wanting to give any further explanation. That's why I'm worried about your sister and mother's granddaughter. Can you help find Seruni?"

Miss Mirna looked at the God expectantly.

"Mas Bima already knows?"

"Male? I'm having a hard time contacting that Masmu!" Ms. Mirna was sad.

"Mom contacted Ms Niken? Seruni had been close to him all this time. Who knows, Miss Niken knows?"

"Either? Know what that woman is? It's probably just spending the husband's money all this time! Exorbitant style! His son just used an expensive school entrance event like that. Dear mother, Bima how difficult it has been to find money to support the child and his wasteful wife!"

"Mom, it's not good to say that there is no evidence yet. Ma'am Niken has been trading all along. Most factory workers sometimes order food with Ms. Niken."

"Huh? Can you cook that woman? Most only cook instant noodles and water only. Or fried rice with seasoning so it is!" Miss Mirna snorted in annoyance.

"Well, that risol the other day, God bring, which I ask to buy almost every day, Madam Niken who makes." Said the God while shrugging his shoulders, while smiling amusedly.

"lik! Ah, whatever! Anyway, mom doesn't want to know. Find Seruni!"

"Rune? Jesus Regas? Come inside!"

Niken guides Seruni who carries her baby into the house.

Niken then took Regas, the little baby from Seruni's arms and held the baby in his arms.

"Runi, what's wrong with you? Have you eaten? Let's eat first!"

Niken took Seruni to the dining room located near the kitchen.

"Well, is there a Aunt Seruni?" The awoken barrel, headed to the dining room as well.

Niken turned towards Seruni.

"Yes, Regas' sister, you're booby in your room, huh?"

"Ready, Ma. Later Laras keep it up!" Baras exclaimed cheerfully.

Niken gave his thumbs up to his only child.

Niken put the two-month-old baby to sleep in the room, then passed to the kitchen to prepare food.

Niken makes hot tea and puts it in front of Seruni.

Niken did not ask Seruni much at that time, he knew, Seruni was in trouble, so it was like this.

Seruni devoured rice and vegetable beans, with mangut catfish side dishes until exhausted, until added twice due to hunger. Then sip the hot tea that has become warm up to half.

Niken took a plate from Seruni while Seruni enjoyed the sponge as a snack.

"Would you like a shower?"

"Yes, Mommy."

Then Seruni immediately passed to the bathroom, while Niken cleaned the dining table. At the dinner table there is now tea, and a teapot containing tea, then a sponge, and a plate of corn bakwan.

"Regas, sleep well."

"Yes, because Laras is the guard!" Niken with a smile.

"You're out of the house?" Niken glanced at the big bag that was on the chair.

Seruni nodded slowly.

"I've filed for divorce from Mas Bram."

"Good, Runi! What's going on?"

Niken held her sister-in-law's hand which felt cold.

"There were three women who came to the house, holding Mas Bram accountable. One of them was married in series. Everyone's pregnant, Mom!"

Seruni's cry broke after saying that. Niken immediately hugged Seruni's body and rubbed her back gently soothing her.

"Cry! Put everything together."

Niken rubbed his sister-in-law's back.

After being satisfied crying, Seruni took off her embrace, and looked at Niken.

"Can I stay here for a while?"

"Yes. Go ahead. This house is always open to you, Runi."

"Thank you, Ma'am."

A moment of silence occurred in the room. Niken was not too forcing Seruni to tell a story, although actually very curious.

"Two weeks ago came a pregnant woman, looking for Mas Bram, who works as a lecturer. He's looking because Mas Bram hasn't been home for a week. They were married in series, because the woman was already pregnant. The woman used to be a student of her tutoring during college, then accidentally met back and they exchanged information. Then they were close, and Mas Bram was a man who always had a physical relationship when he was in a relationship with the opposite sex. So guess what, right?"

Niken patted the back of Seruni's hand slowly.

"Then a few days ago came two young women, who turned out to be her coeds as well. Two of them were pregnant because of Mas Bram. The student was promised good grades, but on condition that he must satisfy Mas Bram's passion. And maybe it's not just those two guys, times. Considering Mas Bram likes to do the same with his students. I'm sure he won't survive this time, ma'am!" Seruni smiled cynically.

"What are you talking about, Runi?"

"Since the beginning, I have refused Mas Bram, because only once met you have asked to room at the hotel, Ma'am."

"Why do you agree? You, you can refuse, Runi."

"Free, Ma'am. Mom said, it's okay, I'm pregnant with Mas Bram's child. I will soon marry him. Then Mas Bram's parents also talked about Mas Bram going to school again in America and I will come along. But, it's all lies! It's just a trick for Mom to let me and pressure me into marrying Mas Bram. His parents probably knew that his son had this bad habit! I'm lazy to argue with Mom, Mom. That's why I accepted the match."
