Benalu In My House
EIGHTEEN

With a lethargic face and a haggard appearance, Shandi entered her house that felt so lonely. No more warm welcome, sweet smile, and warm embrace as a delivery or welcome home. Hampa, that's what Shandi feels right now. As she was about to close the door, Shandi noticed a thin brown object lying on the floor. Looks like it's tucked from under the door. Shandi took it immediately.

Shandi's heart is like being hit by a load of thousands of tons. It was a brown envelope with a religious court logo on it. Without needing to open, Shandi could already guess what it contained. Shandi carried the envelope and shook his buttocks on the living room couch. Shandi closed his eyes. Trying to convince himself that this is not what he expected.

With a slightly shaking hand, Shandi tore off the envelope then took out the contents. Shandi immediately drooped lethargic, it turned out that the contents did not match his expectations. It turns out Mentari really realized his words to sue for divorce himself.

His feelings instantly became chaotic and unsettled. It was unthinkable for him to be left behind by the figure who had been beside him for these few years. But what can be done, that's what he must face. Moreover, his parents had openly asked him to divorce Mentari. Had Erna not been pregnant, it would not have been like this.

"Mas, what is it? Divorce subpoena? Good though. That way only I will be your wife. And only I will be the master of this house" said Erna, excited after reading the letter she had just taken from Shandi.

Shandi who had lost his mood, then immediately passed from there. Erna did not care about Shandi's face being bent. He must surely celebrate this.

"Ma, how are we having dinner outside? I'm really cool again. It turns out that the barren actually sued for divorce from Mas Shandi. Erna thinks she's just a bluff, uh turns out she's serious."

" .... "

"Yes, ma. Erna was happy, finally only Erna the only wife of mas Shandi. Buruan mama here, continue to persuade mas Shandi to treat us to eat outside. We must celebrate this special day" said Erna.

And according to Erna's plan, finally Shandi, Rohani, and Septi, minus Septian had arrived at a restaurant. With a sumringah face, they entered the restaurant then ordered the menu as they pleased. It seems that the three women did feel so happy because Mentari who chose to retreat rather than survive. Moreover, it has long been spiritual does not like Mentari.

Meanwhile, at the new Mentari residence, he was also looking to celebrate his freedom. He plans to make dinner for himself and Jeanara. Mentari has cooked various menus and then served them with a smile.

Because he only invited Jeanara, Mentari was only wearing navy long-sleeved satin pajamas. Just as he finished changing his clothes, the doorbell rang. Mentari rushed to open the door. In a matter of seconds, Mentari rounded her eyes as it turned out that not only was Jeanara coming, but also her husband, Abdi and her twin brother and the little girl who was the niece of Jeanara, Jervario and Ashadiva.

"Onty is beautiful" cried Ashadiva when the door of the Mentari apartment opened.

"Lho ... " Mentari's eyes blinked in shock at the whereabouts of the four people.

Jeanara who knew Mentari was surprised to see not only himself who came and then laughed amusedly.

"Surprise cuy's. It's not cool to celebrate just two. So .. yes that is it! Moreover, this boy already misses you very much," said Jeanara explained.

Mentari smiled widely and spread out his arms to hug Ashadiva.

"Hey pretty!" mentari's greeting to Ashadiva. "Yuk Mas, Jerva, Jea, please come in. Sorry, it's still a mess" Mentari said, inviting his guests inside.

Abdi smiled with understanding. While Jervario only put a flat face like a laminated plywood. Flat, more flat and stiff. 😂🤣

"Collapse from where? Neat and clean gin kok," Jeanara argued when looking into the apartment Mentari.

Mentari just smiled thinly, "Jea, take Abdi mas with Jerva directly to dinner! It's all ready. Strive cold," Mentari told Jeanara, who greeted Jeanara with a thumbs up. "Asha wants to eat?" ask the Mentari to Asha.

"Now, Onty. What cooking onty?" ask Ashadiva who is still in the sling Mentari. Jervario only looked at the two with an unreadable look.

"There's chicken opor, there's tempe bacem, there's capcay, crispy shrimp, same balado egg. Asha likes to eat spicy?"

Asha shook her head, "Asha does not like to eat spicy Onty, but Asha likes to eat shrimp with tempe bacem," said Asha with enthusiasm to make Mentari chuckle with anxiety and then he kissed Asha cheeks cheerfully. Then they immediately sat at the dining table in the shape of a round owned by Mentari. Abdi and Jeanara sat down. Asha, Mentari, and Jervario.

"Cie, Asha seneng nih ye can meet onty Riri!" jeanara Goda.

"Yes dong. Onty Riri is kind and beautiful, Asha likes it," he chirped Mentari, Jeanara, and Abdi chuckled. K

"Code no, Jer!" chirps Abdi makes Jervario's eyes glare sharply.

"Mas Abdi is right, Va! I'm okay-okay," Jeanara's chimpanzee makes Jervario's eyes glare sharply, while Mentari links her eyebrows together. I don't understand what the husband and wife are talking about.

"What are you talking about?" tanya Mentari was confused.

"Bronghom ... Aww....loe what the hell, Va! Sick tau! Mas, look, Jerva naughty, use Jea foot-injects," Jeanara fights Abdi while whining to make Mentari giggle amused to see it.

"Why should you do it?" ask Abdi confused.

"Yes, not sensitive. Marahin cake!"

"Udah ah, when do we start eating if we keep joking. Yuk mas, Je, Jerva, we're eating. Sorry if the cuisine is less delicious or less tasteful. Dance is not too cool to cook because," said Mentari low.

"Oh yes, but I think this cuisine is all delicious. The smell is too, hmmm .. isn't it, Jer?" chirp Abdi while rolling one eye on Jervario.

Jervario only snorted because her brother-in-law seemed very happy to tease her. Then Jeanara helped bring rice and side dishes to Abdi, while Mentari helped to get them to Jervario and Asha.

"Here Jer, I'll help!" said Mentari who immediately took rice for Jervario. "What side dishes do you want?" tanya Mentari after filling Jervario's plate with rice. Asha had eaten first.

"Emmm. I'm not picky about food," said Jervario, glancing at how deftly Mentari served him.

"I'm sure, the flea snaps it will definitely lose you, Ri," Jeanara said suddenly. "What is your lack? Just because I am not pregnant is in question. If that is a problem, it should be discussed carefully. The family policy is not grateful," he added, which Abdi and Jervario allowed in their hearts.

"Udah ah, Jea, don't talk about them. Make my mood disappear ajar," said Mentari who is now busy watching Asha eat. "Where's Sha, good food?"

"Enak. Tomorrow, Asha can eat here again?" asha's chirp made the four adults there shocked.

"Ck ck ck ... hard code hard code," always Abdi makes Jervario reflex kick Abdi's shin so that Abdi who was drinking immediately choked. "Damn loe, Jer!" abdi Oath.

"Mas" Jeanara said with bulging eyes.

Meanwhile, the Shandis have just finished dinner. Now they have come home and talked about Erna's pregnancy, inversely with Shandi who continues to daydream.

"Sister, it's payday! Where am I?" chirps Septi suddenly made Shandi immediately turn his head.

"Yes, Shan. Where is mama too? Mama wants to pay the price the day after tomorrow," Rohani's timpal makes Shandi tick.

"You why? Your salary, didn't you transfer to Dance right?" sulek Rohani misgivings Shandi still sends Mentari money.

"No, ma. Dance had even closed the bank account that Shandi used to send money."

"Huh, seriously? So kind of him. But good. He is no longer entitled if soon divorced so why send him money."

"Well, which mama and Septi? Soon mama wants to go home, hunt take it now," said Rohani impatiently. Even Erna had her eyes sparkling when she knew her husband's payday.

Shandi immediately stood up and took the money for his mother and sister.

"This is for mama and this is for you Sep, the same Tian. And this, for you, Na," Shandi said, making the three people surprised.

"Five hundred thousand? What the fuck, Shan? Where enough money is this. Make a daily meal, make a meal pay, too, "spiritual protest.

"Yes brother, mas" I'm 500 grand. Ma'am Dance usually gives me 1,500,000. Tian too. That does not include SKS and other money," Septi protested grumbling.

"Mas, how come it's only 1 million anyway? What money is this? My snack money or money for shopping?" ask Erna.

"That's shopping. Sorry, I can't give more because my position was down. My salary is smaller. The bonus was also forfeited so I couldn't get any more. Shandi asked, from now on you learn to skimp. Then Shandi will go to bed first. Excuse me," Shandi concluded, making the three women round their eyes.

"Well! Is that true. 500 grand? How do you want to pay for arisan?"

"So too, ma. Enough for one month. The 1,500,000 he was a mediocre Septi, let alone just this much. Oh yeah, mbak Erna is the manager, mbak Erna want to add the rest? Did we help you get married to Shandi?"

"Ah, you're right Sep, how son, you want to add mama and Septi money? We are now your family, which means we are your responsibility" said Rohani.

Erna rolled her eyes, then she shook her head quickly.

"Sorry, ma, Sep, Erna can't. Erna also needs a lot. Erna wants to eat also for the needs of baby Erna and the cost of labor," refused Erna quickly. Then he immediately stood up and moved away from his in-laws and brother-in-law.

'Son, I'm tired of work, those who want to enjoy. Oh, shit, what a gini! A million? Enough where? Buying skincare is not enough. Fortunately there was .. ' the monologue Erna then smiled before entering the room leaving Rohani and Septi who swore in annoyance.
