Until When Should I Be?
6. Talk to each other
Sinta tried to smile even though she was still surprised to hear all the words of her husband. The woman decided to be honest about her meeting with her husband's grandfather today.
"I also want to say something, mas,"
Jamal nodded, ready to hear whatever her husband would say. "Will I listen, but please don't say goodbye, will you?" pinta Jamal with a face.
Sinta nodded while giggling amusedly, that could not have happened. They will not part with divorce, only age can separate their marriage.
"Today I picked someone up. The man said that his master wanted to see me. And that person is his grandfather mas," I'm honest.
"What's? Why didn't you call me first if some unknown person came and asked you to come with him? What if you were kidnapped? They can be bad people, right?"
Sinta clasped her husband's hand which looked panicked. "Look at me, mas. I'm doing fine! I also left a message in the memo. So if I hadn't come home by the time I arrived, I would have been able to find myself with the memo I left behind." Sinta tried to calm her husband who was too panicked. Though it had passed and she had returned home, to be here, by her own husband's side.
"What did the old man say?" clearly Jamal's face shows that he feels guilty and also worried. Whatever his wife was with from that old, old, stale, stubborn man. How many harsh words did his woman receive just because of his stupidity that could not be honest from the start.
"Sorry, all because of me. If only we were just ordinary people, we would be able to live in peace as we have dreamed so far" the man said.
"Not wrong, my. Maybe it's because I haven't asked about the mas family at all since we got married" Sinta smiled softly. He doesn't want to blame anyone. If someone is to blame, then he himself is the right person to bear the blame.
"But you haven't answered your question. What did the old man say?" Jamal asked once more to confirm whatever his wife had heard.
"We're acquainted. He gave me a lot of money and told me to leave. I almost took it, but it didn't, "kekeh Sinta joked that her husband wasn't too tense.
"Don't joke about something like this, baby," Jamal said quickly. "While it's just a joke, I still don't like to hear it!" timpal Jamal is quick with a riled face, afraid that his wife's words become a do'a and could happen in the future.
"Sorry, mom. I was just a little joking around so I wouldn't have a sour face like this,"
Jamal nodded, trying to act more calm. "Did that old man threaten you?" ask the man. After that he himself shook quickly. "Without any need to answer, I knew that the stubborn old man must have done it" he continued, throwing his face away. He was very upset with his grandfather's behavior.
"Well, he just said I wouldn't be accepted. That's it, um, mas,"
"I can't say another word but sorry, deck. I was wrong, I lied and covered it all up. But even you have to listen to the harsh words of my grandfather," Jamal regretted feeling he had become an evil husband. Who let his wife be cursed by her own family.
"Let's just say Mr. Arman was a little surprised that I was present among you, mas!"
"Mr Arman?" jamal's forehead crinkled at the wife's call to his grandfather. "Why do you call my grandfather like that, deck?" ask the man to make sure. There must be a reason behind it all. There was no way a woman of Sinta's courtesy would call her grandfather that way. Of course this must be because of his stubborn grandfather.
Sinta scratched her cheeks that did not itch, she let go of the talk because since meeting earlier always called her husband's grandfather like that. So her tongue got used to it and instead spoke it in front of her own husband. "He who asked not to be called by the name of grandfather," I Sinta without covering. The woman looked in another direction, unwilling to look directly into the eyes of her husband who must have stared regretfully and guiltily at her.
"I'll talk to Grandpa in person tomorrow!" jamal made his decision. He could not stand by to see his wife treated like a stranger. This is the woman he chose as his wife. That means Sinta is the granddaughter-in-law in their family.
Sinta shook her head quickly, not agreeing with what her husband was going to do. "No, mas! Please leave it alone until he changes his own mind, huh?!"
Jamal was helpless to see his wife's faith. He alone who is the grandson of Arman knows very well that the old man will never change his decision. What he said, that's what will happen until the end. However, Jamal's little heart also expects the same. He hopes his grandfather can change after getting to know the woman he chose as his wife.
"Alright, let's do as you wish" Jamal relented. He will follow his wife's wishes. It is not too late to act if nothing changes after waiting a while. He could definitely take care of everything and get his wife accepted into his family as a granddaughter-in-law.
"Even, right?" ask Sinta as soon as they finish talking.
Jamal nodded in return. "Then I go ahead, let me take care of it!" tukas Sinta gave the order. He did not feel at home to see the dirty dishes piled up and not yet cleaned.
Not go as his wife wants. Jamal rolled up his sleeves and stood up from his seat. "This is a help to get it done quickly," he said immediately brought the dirty dishes they had used.
"I can do it myself, mom!" tukas Sinta followed. "Be ahead, watch there. I'll see you when it's over!" continue the woman.
"It's okay, let's work together to finish faster. Let's watch it together after,"
Sinta took a long breath. Who said that only her husband's grandfather was stubborn. Her husband is the same. What is the Sanjaya Family contents stubborn people all yes. The woman shook her head slowly, she was already thinking of herself as she pleased. The two washed the dishes together while occasionally asking about this and that.
