Behind my In-laws silence
Chapter 1 The work piles up.
#Chat_Martuaku_With_Neighbors.
When I was washing all the clothes, from the clothes of my husband and my two in-laws. It feels very tired because of dirty clothes that are very much and piled up.
Moreover, the father-in-law who works as a farmer and first sheep, must be washed in clothes full of mud.
Tired, and tired of feeling all day to take care of the house, if I were authorized to cooperate Mas Raka, maybe I would not be like a babu in this house.
This is fate, as with the in-laws.
The clock has set at 07:00 in the morning I finished also washing clothes, with all my calm I pushed a bucket containing clothes that I just washed. Don't forget to dry all your clothes alone.
After you finish washing and drying clothes,
Time to wash the dishes in the bathroom.
Actually I'm tired if dirty dishes have to be stacked in the bathroom, but my in-laws always stack them there.
Somehow, making more and more work, because after washing dirty dishes, I had to brush the bathroom. Because the dishwasher must be dirty.
Because living in the village, made me think to wash dirty dishes behind the house, so that the bathroom always looks clean.
Make a shower hose to simplify all kitchen work. Especially washing dishes.
But everything I do is in vain.
My in-laws kept me quiet for 1 week, making me feel bad.
As these footsteps step into the kitchen.
Bark ... Brand ... Bruggg.
As the sound of glasses and plates clashing like war, I immediately ran in a hurry. Hearing voices in the bathroom. What the hell is it?
After I looked, it turned out that the mother-in-law was washing all the dirty dishes, but how to wash it like someone who was fighting again, noisy and occasionally a pan that was black at the beat, somehow with the mother-in-law?
Is he upset with me?
Immediately I approached and helped mom, the look on her face that seemed unhappy about my arrival.
"Here ma'am, let Ana wash, mother rest dead," I said as I picked up the laundry soap lying down. Not far from his face.
Mom immediately washed her hands, threw the dirty dishes scourer, left speechless. Indeed, mother rarely ever chatted with me, as for the most he asked for help.
With unbearable fatigue, I immediately continued washing the dishes of my former in-laws.
Breathing in, there's a sense of tightness here. Seeing the unusual look on my mother's face.
Is it really like this, when having a second mother who does not like our presence?
It didn't feel like the clear grain I was holding, it finally came out, too, unstoppable. Making hands full of soapy foam I wipe on the wet water hit the cheeks.
When I finished, I immediately blamed the stove and continued cooking.
Cooking the kale vegetables my husband picked up this morning. Do not forget to warm the rice that is still left a lot of traces yesterday.
Fatigue due to the relentless routine, makes this stomach feel rumbling, but as a wife I should be able to hold back after the work is done.
Finally finished also cooking, the clock has shown at 09:00 in the morning, the time to tell the children to eat. Usually my cooking is always in order at 8 am, because the work that piles up makes me cook a little late.
My son was playing in the yard, making me immediately call them to eat.
"Son, let's eat?"
They were so happy, running around as I told them to eat right away.
Everyone has gathered.
I didn't see where Mom was? all it looks like is me father and Mas Raka, kids.
"Where's mom, sir?" I asked my father-in-law who was so good at eating food at the table.
"Ga know Neng, don't look!" I replied that I don't seem to care about my mother.
It doesn't feel good if I eat without my mother. After giving rice to Mas Raka's plate, it was at that moment that I stood up and left the dining table.
"Where are you going, mah?" ask Mas Raka to me.
"From mom!" answer me while walking.
"Eat first, maybe warm again, you have been busy taking care of the house, have not eaten," said Mas Raka attention to me.
I immediately walked, after replying to Mas Raka's words.
soon I searched house by house in the countryside which is fairly cold weather.
Seeing there are still many trees without any pollution, in the middle of the road, when I found out that the mother again gathered with her friends, neighbors, whatever they chatted about.
Curiosity is growing in my heart and mind. Makes me ventured to eavesdrop on a house not far away where my in-laws were gathering with his gossip mates.
My sitting in-laws now received a rice from her neighbor, smiling happily the old woman accepted and ate it so voraciously.
Deggs ...
There is pain in the bottom of my heart, I try to calm down by staying positive. In fact
This inner being wondered what mad mother? because I haven't made breakfast yet. Late morning?
It is usually at 8 am breakfast on the wooden table where we eat with our family. Because the night is staying up, petting the youngest, making me wake up late.
Am I really feeling bad about mom?Just a foot away, to apologize, I was startled by the words of mother to her neighbor.
tightness mixed with annoyance against each other in this heart.
Making Tears fall unstoppable again, I immediately went from there, wiping away my tears.
Why did I become weak, I should have listened to my in-laws' chatter with the neighbors first. I showed up in front of them, so they were ashamed to talk about me behind their back.
It feels crowded ... This body is helpless, the stomach has not been filled from this morning. It makes me feel no appetite for food.
But to run I was so fast, without me noticing.
After arriving home.
"You why? Mah, that's how it sounds." Mas Raka pulled my arms, and hugged tightly. It was as if he knew what this heart was feeling.
My hands were coiled around Mas Raka's waist, as if not far from his wound.
The feeling of tightness little by little is gone.
"I heard my mother mongi my name, Mas," said I could not see the look on Mas Raka's face, looking down this is my way so that Mas Raka did not see my tears fall.
"What did mom say?" mas Raka's question made my ears buzz.
"Eitherway? But I heard you say my name."
At first glance I glimpsed Mas Raka patted his eel.
"So I don't know what you're obrolin in front of the neighbors."
I shook my head.
The door opened, indicating that she had gone home.
My in-laws glanced at my face, and rounded their eyes at Mas Raka.
Like giving a code, I don't know what code.
"Mommy's gass first, yeah."
I just want to know what they're talking about.
when things get really bad, I always think. What they're talking about without me knowing.
**********
Finally Mas Raka came out of the room, I don't know what they were talking about.
Karna saw the look on Mas Raka's face as if gelisa.
I took a deep breath swallowing everything I had never heard.
However, it is very felt in the heart, pain ...
"What did mom say?" I asked when Mas Raka wiped his sweat that was pouring out.
"Oh no, you just rest. Mah. Papah wants to go outside, get some work first."
I kissed the back of his hand and did not forget to pray for my husband's departure for work, hopefully he can get a job.
So no longer annoying. Let me get out of this house quickly.
