Wife Interlude

Chapter.9 Shopping

Back flash.

Hilman had just walked out of the mosque when his eyes saw the back of someone he seemed to know. The man seemed to sharpen his eyes until the wrinkles on his forehead were clearly visible, for the sake of seeing the figure of the woman who was walking out of the mosque area.

"Cock, like Rina? Is he praying here?" muttered Hilman while accelerating his pace intending to catch up with the woman.

However, when he was outside the Hilman mosque saw Rina not walking towards his house, but instead walking in the opposite direction.

"Where is he going? It's already dark, why would he go outside at a time like this? Already know again pregnant, this is even out of the house when magrib, if it is found out Mama has definitely got angry!" himan grumbled more to himself.

With quick steps she returned home to pick up her car, in order to catch up with Rina. He went inside the house and ran to his room to get the keys, then ran outside again.

"Man, where are you going?" Mama Hilman who was in the family room seemed to scream asking her son.

"There's business, Mah. I go first yes, Assalamualaikum," replied Hilman as he took the hand of the middle-aged woman who had given birth to him.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Be careful, don't go home at night!" the middle-aged woman shouted, because Hilman who had already run towards the main door.

"Yes, Mah!" hilman shouted from outside the house in response.

Flash back off.

A while passed, now that Rina and Hilman had reached the nearest super market from their residential location, Hilman first dropped Rina in the lobby, before she parked her car next to the super market building.

"Wait for me here, I'll park the car first" Hilman said as he stopped his car in the lobby.

"You want to go inside, too?" asked Rina, looking at Hilman.

"Yes, I just remembered that there was something I had to buy" replied Hilman.

"Oh, yes," Rina nods then out of Hilman's mob and waits for him in the lobby.

Hilman smiled then re-applied his car to the side of the super market building, a parking area for cars. Hilman went straight out of the car, then took a quick step towards the lobby of the super market to approach Rina.

Hilman seemed to be smiling faintly when he saw that Lina was actually waiting for him in the lobby.

"Have you?" asked Rina, as soon as Hilman got in front of her.

"Already, let's go in," Hilman asked as he picked up the grocery trolley stacked with another basket inside.

"Now that too?" asked Rina while walking beside Hilman.

"It's for my groceries" replied Hilman pointing to the shopping cart inside the trolley.

"Oh yeah, I forgot that you wanted to shop too." Lina smiled awkwardly feeling embarrassed by her own behavior.

While Himman only chuckled at Lina who looked embarrassed and awkward to him.

"Udah, just say I'm your friend, or maybe your sister." Hilman spoke casually with a small ruckus in his mouth.

"Hehe, I just feel like I haven't been used to walking with anyone other than Mom and Dad." Rina even felt confused when Hilman was getting closer to her, she was still aware of the afterlife who was a wife, although in fact she was never recognized.

They then walked hand in hand to where the groceries were, starting oil and various dried herbs. Lina seemed to be picking up some of the ingredients she felt she would need during her time here.

"I just need some toiletries, same as some snacks. If it's a kitchen problem, usually people who will buy a house," replied Hilman rubbed his nape while grimacing feel all wrong.

"Oh ...." Rina only ber oh ria while returning to focus on choosing the ingredients she needs.

After they were finished in the dry material, now they walk to the frozen food, such as by meat or fish.

Hilman secretly watched as Rina was busy sorting out what she wanted to buy. Rina is not as beautiful as Tari who has white skin and high body posture.

Rina has a slightly dark complexion, with long brown hair and a little curl on the end also thick, although Rina seems to prefer to tie it.

His posture is also not high until, maybe he can be said to contain maybe due to his pregnancy as well. Hilman certainly did not know the posture of Rina before becoming pregnant.

Rina's face was also never wrapped in makeup, Hilman could think that all this time maybe Rina only uses facial moisturizers and liptin as lip dye, so it does not look striking.

The clothes also look simple, with a style of fur pants or a long skirt with a shirt. He could even judge what Rina used to wear, with just a few meetings, because it was the only thing that Rina used every time she met.

Hilman could even guess that the total price of all the clothes that Rina was wearing right now, was no more than three hundred thousand. It was very different from Dance who could spend millions of money just to buy one piece of clothes.

As a Hilam man, of course, you can understand that Anjas prefers Dance compared to Rina. Because if judged from their appearance is too much different, and unfortunately Rina who is far below Dance.

"But, when it comes to choosing groceries in the super market, I'm sure Rina is superior to Tari," muttered Hilman unconsciously, when he noticed that Rina was deft in choosing ingredients.

"Why, Bang?" asked Rina while looking at Hilman who had been watching her since.

"Huh? Why, Rin?" Hilman who was awakened from the daydream did not hear clearly the words of Rina, she seemed to be wheezing several times, to normalize the look of her face.

"Bang Hilman called me?" ask Rina.

"Oh that, this I want to ask, why don't you buy vegetables or fish anyway, not that good for pregnant women?" ask Himan for a reason.

"If the vegetables are the same fish, I prefer to buy in a cart greengrocer who likes to pass in front of the house, let it be more seger," replied Rina.

"Oh that's it." Hilman seemed to nod his head slowly.

"It seems that all the food is enough, now we go there yuk, he said Bang Hilman want to buy snacks," asked Rina to refer where snacks are located.

Hilman seemed to see the contents of the trolley that there were only a few types of groceries, he slightly frowned, as if unusual with the amount of groceries that looked a little.

"You're just shopping this way anyway? Is this enough for you to eat this week?" ask Hilman while following the steps of Rina who walked first.

"And I just live alone, Bang. So I think this is enough" replied Rina with a bitter smile on her face.

Somehow hearing Rina's answer, Himan felt a pain in her heart, considering that currently young pregnant Rina, who was in need of a lot of attention from her husband and family.

However, Rina was abandoned by her husband and now lives alone, with no family knowing. Rina decided not to tell her family about the condition of her household which is now very messy.

Hilman could tell all that from Anjas who included everything about Rina with him. From then on her assessment of Rina who was initially bad, became improved and instead made her feel pity and concerned about Rina's current state.

Their shopping event went well, Hilman bought a number of items so that the reason was not discovered. Hilman was even going to pay for Rina's actual groceries. However, the woman refused and preferred to use the card given by Anjas.
