Benalu In My House

Benalu In My House
SEVENS


I woke up when the clock showed me at eight in the morning. Due to the sound of incoming calls from Mas Dani who is relentless sounding, making the brain and eyes difficult to compromise.


I turned on the phone that had died because it ran out of batteries. There was one incoming message that also came from Mas Dani, my husband.


"Darling, where are you?  Please forgive those who have inflicted wounds on your heart. After your departure, you only realize the importance of your existence in your life. Please, go home. Let's fix what shouldn't have happened. "


I smiled cynically reading the message containing the word plea. I took a deep breath, then took it out slowly. Heart rhythm that sounds irregular, able to make me feel a little claustrophobic.


Eyes slowly closed. Let every moment that has ever happened swirl in your mind. After seeing how the misery that women bear to maintain their households, making the word marriage far from my life goals. Tethering one's heart to a man, trusting in a better future ... It is a great risk to faithfulness. Until I met Mas Dani, my excitement faded with time.


Getting married, enjoying moments I had never felt before, was so powerful it broke my doubts.


Still vividly remembered in this memory as morning greeted, that peaceful face was the first I found. Touching every inch of her face warms this heart. His shoulder is where I complain, cry and vent all the disappointments. His body was a heartache as he carried me in his warm embrace.


He is my strength. Oh, husband... What the hell is going on with you?  Is it this easy for you to break your wife's heart? Or am I overdone in wanting your whole self and heart to be mine?


Your sweet lips that used to be a soul coolant, have now turned into a poison that slowly kills me. Every word that used to contain happiness, is now changed by inviting destruction.

This apartment is quiet, there is only me alone who is busy with thoughts that are raging. Evha last night went straight home to her parents. So lucky he can still feel the affection of parents. However, there is no right for me to be envious or jealous of the way of life of others. God created man with a sense that is always side by side. It's just that our way of life is different, with the past that is easy to compare the test is also different.


While being busy with increasingly wandering thoughts, the notification sound from wa again rang. With a physical condition that is down, lazy it feels to do something, even if it is just reaching for the phone. However, the deepening curiosity finally made me reach for the flat object.


A message from Desi. What does this fucking woman want?


"Only with a trivial problem like this, you have stopped from the house that is your own home. What if Mas Dani really belongs to me?  Maybe you'll die afterwards. So women should not be too weak, ma'am. "


This time my anger was boiling. My hands were clenched to the point of making the knuckles turn white. Basic benalu. Already hitchhiking in the lives of others, now even think to have it all.


Maybe they think I'm the dumbest woman on the face of the earth. Letting that damn woman stay in her own house, and even now the owner steps out.


My position right now is not easy. I also want to kick that shit out of my house. It would not feel like seeing a face full of putty make up was one roof with me. But what can I do?  I had to be willing to make sacrifices so that Mas Dani would stay by my side. Desi had great power over Mas Dani. If he's kicked out, then that means that Dani's also going with him.


Nah!  I'm not gonna let that cheap woman's plan happen. Be strong, do not be weak, my soul.


I went back to packing the suitcase and dragged it out after telling Evha that I was going home today. He slightly disagreed, but because of my persistence in convincing him, he finally collapsed as well. This heart is so grateful to God, who has brought me to a woman as good as her. One day, I will repay all his kindness.

The taxi I was riding finally arrived. I stared at the building soaring upwards with a rumbling feeling.


"Sir, wait a minute here. "


I walked away after handing the red sheet of money to the father. I know, in times like this, it's not how much you can get from the results of taking a taxi.


After getting information in the room where the owner of this company is located, I immediately walked quickly because I did not want to be late. 5 minutes more he will come out he said.

Without waiting I knocked on the door that stood firmly in front of me. I don't know what will happen, let it be a business later. There was a voice from within who said that I would enter, without thinking that the door was opened violently.


"Miss Sarah... "


Mr. Anto seemed surprised by my sudden arrival. A second later, he had mastered himself.


"Please sit down" he said after I stood right in front of him.


"Thank you. "


At first glance I noticed the face of the middle-aged man sitting leisurely in front of me. The smile did not fade from him. The first impression I had when I first met him was, Friendly. Well, either it's just my judgment or something. However, my purpose in coming here was like a violent slap that returned my consciousness.


"I want to talk about your son. "


"Desi, you mean? "


I nodded firmly.


"There's no need to look at me until I'm as fast as I can. You know, kid. I looked as if I wanted to pounce on the victim. "


"Don't joke. You must know the purpose of me coming here is not for trivial matters. "


The smile was still there even though the face had changed firmly. This father is very underweight. But unfortunately, his son was inversely proportional to him.


I heard her heavy breath.


"I know this is going to be hard for you. Accepting strangers in your household is not a simple matter. "


"If you know, then how could you possibly do this to me? "


Let it be said I have no manners, I don't care. Every word I said aloud and with great emphasis. This heart is already sick. My breath was ablaze, with a burst of emotion bursting forth.


"Pacify yourself, son. Let's talk about it with a cold head. "


I looked at the people who were in front of me. How could he possibly educate his son to such brashness. He is certainly no different from his son. Same with benalu.


"There's a lot of stories behind everyone. If bad thoughts have made us stay away from someone without first getting to know, maybe we lost one fortune. "


I was surprised by what he said just now. It was as if he was reading my mind, he said so deeply into my heart. Is it this easy that others can read what is dancing in this head?


"Please give me a little happiness in my life. I admit I came in a state of disintegration. "


"Aren't you guys using each other, too? "


Tongue whimpering. The answer is so heart-breaking. It's true what he said.


" I was wrong in my decision. Giving my husband to share with others is tantamount to killing me. The pain is unbearable. "


"That is the important role of thinking before acting. "


Whatdoes thatmean?  Does he also think I'm that stupid?


"What do you mean?  Do you think I was careless in my decision? "


I held my breath as I continued to hunt due to burning anger.


"I couldn't have come here if your daughter's treatment was in accordance with the contract. Your daughter is a bitch who slowly robs others of their happiness. Whether or not it was the result of your upbringing, I don't know. "


"So talk to you, son. "


Suddenly the door in this room opened. I don't know what room is in there I don't know. A woman lung bayah out with a tangled face like after waking up. Maybe he's his wife.


"No parent educates his child in error. "


I regretted my words just now
