Unable To Be In Honey

Life is difficult

Three months later.

Vera's gestational age has entered eight months more, and approximately three more weeks Vera will give birth. The condition of dimas and vera is now very much different, now Vera has no branded goods anymore all she has sold to meet daily needs.

Currently Vera only has a necklace that he deliberately did not sell, in case of biata during labor later.

Dimas until now is still as unemployed, every day out of the house but not for work. Out just to play and hang out with his new friends at the coffee shop next door. Vera is not as beautiful as before, even her skin is not as smooth as it used to be. Mek up thick has long not decorated his wajpah, do not buy mek up to meet daily needs alone is always lacking.

" Well, soon I'm going to give birth. Mas dimas has a stash of money doesn't he?" Vera asked quietly while serving fried rice to dimas.

" I'm money from where else Ver, you'll know I'm not working. " Answer dimas while eating fried rice made by Vera.

Vera has now started to change not like angry anymore, Vera is now much pensive and daydreaming in her solitude. Like there was something he was thinking.

" Yes mas" answered Vera briefly and then passed from the presence of dimas, Vera headed to the bathroom located near the kitchen to wash clothes. No washing machine, Vera washes by hand.

Dimas actually felt sorry for Vera, let alone the condition of Vera being pregnant. But how else would there be no more money. Even the car has been pulled by the dealer. Right now it's just the bike he's got. Motor that he sometimes uses for narik ojek.

" Ver, I'm done eating her. I want to go out to find a job who knows today there is a job I can do" Dimas cried as he passed away from his contract.

Vera could only quietly see dimas go from the contract, it has been two months every go reason to find a job but until now never get a job as well. Vera also knew that dimas often hang out in coffee shops.

" Maybe this is the recompense of what I have done before, God has punished me" murmured softly Vera as she rubbed her growing belly.

" To go home to my parents I was embarrassed, they would not accept my presence anymore. Because I've repeated my mistake again by becoming a woman grabbing people's husbands. The condemnation of the actor is already on me" cried Vera with teary eyes remembering all her mistakes.

Gts .. Geck.. Tok

The sound of Vera's rented door being knocked from the outside, it looks like someone is visiting in Vera's contract. Vera rushes to open the door of her contract, apparently RT's mother who came to visit.

" Mom Rt, please enter bu "Say Vera while smiling to hide her sadness.

" Yes mbak, wow the stomach mbak Vera is getting bigger. When is the HPL?" Ask Rt's mom.

" About three weeks ma'am, please sit ma'am" Vera invited bu Rt to sit in a living room chair that looks very simple.

Ms. Rt sat down and Vera went to the kitchen to make Rt take a drink, only a glass of tea can be served.

" Don't bother mbak, already mbak vera sitting here there is something I want to convey to mbak Vera" cried Bu Rt while patting the chair next to him.

Vera followed Rt and sat next to Rt.

" This is what Vera said, her husband Vera was looking for work. If indeed the husband mbak Vera want to be able to work with me, but only as a traveling cake trader. Coincidentally my workers have resigned because they returned home. If the husband mbak Vera wants to work tomorrow can go straight to work" said Rt's mother seriously.

Vera smiled happily even though only as a cake seller at least there is income to meet the needs of life. But Vera's smile suddenly disappeared considering dimas, she was afraid dimas would not accept the job offered by Rt's mother.

" I asked my husband first, ma'am, I'll tell my mother again. " Answer Vera.

Mother Rt does have a household industry business producing cakes, such as doughnuts, bread and peanut-filled bread, chocolate and others. And the marketing is also quite large, there are some residents who also sell cakes by walking around there are those who use wheelbarrow there are also those who use motorcycles.

Vera and Dimas registered their marriage two months ago. So Vera has dared to interact with the neighbors.

When the magrib adhan was headed home by carrying a plastic bag that he put on his motorcycle handlebar. Dimas was very happy when he came home with souvenirs for Vera.

" Vera.. Ver, look what I brought for you" Call Dimas, showing him the plastic bag in his right hand.

Vera approached the dimas and received a plastic bag, then opened it. There was a sense of happiness when Vera saw two special portions of sweet martabak in the plastic bag.

" Martabak mas, mas get money from where to buy martabak" asked vera wonder, because he knew dimas did not have money while martabak's price is about 100 thousand .

" So the mas help the moving people continue to get 200 thousand wages, this is the 100 thousand you hold to buy kitchen needs" said Dimas while holding out 100 thousand dollars to Vera.

Vera took the money and kept it. After that two servings of sweet martabak Vera has moved into the dish and vera has also made 2 glasses of warm tea as a friend to eat martabak.

" Mas was Rt's mother coming here to work" Vera cried as Dimas was eating his martabak.

" What job? Not that Rt's mom had a home-based cake production business, at that time I've asked her word there is no work" said dimas while eating her martabak.

" Now there is a mas, but in the section that sells its cakes. But it has to go around. What would you like?" Vera asked doubtfully.

Dimas fell silent and put down the martabak that he almost put in his mouth.

" Now I don't have a problem working so whatever Ver, as long as the job doesn't bother anyone else. I've been trying to find a job, but I haven't been able to. Only odd jobs that I often live, it's not every day. Tomorrow morning I'll come to Rt's mother's house." Say it with certainty.

Vera is grateful that dimas did not reject the job offer from Rt's mother. At least now they have a job. So if one day Vera gives birth there is a little money they have collected. For baby equipment there are some clothes and others that they have bought when they still have money.

Vera fell silent and stared blankly in the other direction. Like there's something Vera thinks, but what only Vera knows.

Dimas realized lately that Vera was often pensive and daydreaming. Once several times dimas called Vera but Vera did not say, she was getting late in her daydream. Dimas is afraid that Vera will be like she was, which I knew Vera had been depressed.

" Is there something you hide Ver, so you are often pensive and daydreaming. What is life so lacking that you daydream" muttered in his heart.
