Centil Mas Adi's
In-Law Like Your Own Parents

Morning Day.

Adi and Faizal's father had not yet returned from the mosque, even though that morning time was almost showing at 06.00 WIB.

“Mother! Dad and Mas Adi haven't come home yet?” ask Caca who just came out of the bathroom.

“Not yet, it looks like it's a little later. Look, I've made Caca kale, beef-eye eggs and fried tempeh. Caca likes, no?” ask Mother Puspita.

“Mommy has cooked? Why not call Caca?” ask Caca who is talking to my mother-in-law.

“Have no hesitation so, I did deliberately not call Caca. After all, I love to cook food for my favorite daughter-in-law,” replied Ibu Puspita.

“Mothers love Caca?” ask Caca curiously.

“Kok still ask, of course I love Caca. Can I hug Caca?” ask Mother Puspita.

Caca was surprised to hear her mother-in-law who wanted to hug her, at that time Caca hugged Mother Puspita and cried.

The embrace of Mother Puspita is exactly the same as the embrace of the husband, which calms the heart and is very comfortable.

“Mothers promise not to tell Mama and Papa that Caca is crying,” said Caca asked Mother-in-law not to tell her the sadness she experienced yesterday.

“Caca don't be sad again yes, I promise I will keep my mouth shut. In the future, if Caca is sad directly call Mom. I will definitely listen to everything Caca tells me,” concluded Ms. Puspita.

“Thank you, Mother.” Caca cried with what her mother-in-law said.

Faizal and Adi's father had just returned home, they were surprised to see Ms. Puspita with Caca in a position to hug each other.

“Caca why, Mom?” ask Adi.

“Not why-why, we are discussing our own problems. Why don't you go home saying hello?” ask Mother Puspita who has let go of her embrace.

Caca wiped her tears while giving her best smile.

“We have said it, like Mom and Caca did not hear,” Adi replied.

Caca approached her husband and invited him into the room. Because there's something Caca wants to talk to Adi about.

“Dad, Mother. We went to the room first,” said Adi and rushed into the room with his wife.

Upon arrival in the room, Caca locked the door of the room so that no one could enter. Then, ask Adi to kiss her lips. Adi certainly did not refuse, he kissed Caca's sweet lips long enough.

“Already,” said Caca smiled widely after getting a death kiss from the husband.

“Do not want to add?” ask Adi who looks happy because he got a special breakfast.

“That's enough, Mas. Caca is still coming by the moon, afraid Mas can't help it. Now it is better to change clothes, do not Mas have to leave early?” caca asked as she looked towards the clock on the wall.

“Astaghfirullah, fortunately Caca told Mas,” said Adi hurriedly changed his clothes.

Adi and the others had finished breakfast and it was time for Adi to leave for school.

“Be careful Mas, Caca will wait for Mas to come home,” said Caca.

“Mas go first yes!” Adi kissed his wife's forehead and told his parents before going to teach.

After Adi went to teach, Caca and her two in-laws went into the house.

“Daddy go home alone yes, I will accompany Caca here until Adi comes home,” said Ibu Puspita who did not have the heart to leave Caca alone at home.

“Mother, Caca is okay. I should go home with Dad,” said Caca who did not want to bother Mother-in-law.

“Nak Caca do not hesitate with us, I can really go home alone. Later in the afternoon I'll come here to pick up Mom. Coincidentally later in the afternoon Dad there is a job at the house of Mr. Joko, quite his salary,” explained Father Faizal.

“You sure you want to accompany Caca?” ask Caca who doesn't want to trouble Mother-in-law.

“Caca dear, do not hesitate with Mom. You are already considered like Mother's own daughter, you just relax. Later if Adi has come home, Mother will go home,” concluded Ibu Puspita.

Faizal's father decided to go home alone and let Mother Puspita remain in the rented house to accompany their favorite daughter-in-law.

“Be careful on the road, Dad,” says Ms. Puspita.

Slowly, Faizal's father went home alone.

“Sorry yes, Mom,” Caca said apologizing.

“Sorry for what? Because Mom stays here. I told you that Caca should relax and do not hesitate,” reply Mother Puspita.

As they were about to enter the house, a small child came to them.

“Assalamu'alaikum, sell rice?” ask the little boy.

“Wa’alaikumsalam, sister want to buy rice? Buy how many kg?” caca asked and the little boy handed over 24 Thousand dollars.

Caca asked the little boy to wait a little while he weighed the rice.

While waiting for Caca who was weighing rice in the house, Ibu Puspita took the initiative to talk to the child.

“Whose name is it?” ask Mother Puspita.

“Dhika,” she replied with a plain look.

“Oh Dhika's. Dhika is in school?” ask Mother Puspita while smiling widely.

Dhika just shook her head and when Caca came with a plastic bag of rice, Dhika quickly picked up the rice and ran over with her cute legs.

Caca chuckled at how Dhika ran with short strides.

“Dhika very funny yes,” said Ibu Puspita.

“Dhika? So the little sister's name is Dhika? She is indeed very funny, Mom,” Caca replied.

Puspita's mother turned her head towards the long table next to the one that was still empty.

“Caca, you are not selling today?” ask Mother Puspita while holding Caca's hand to enter the house.

“Honestly, Caca is still afraid of yesterday, Mom. Caca was afraid that Mom would come again and yell at Caca,”.

“Have no fear. Here is my mother accompanying Caca. How about we make a steamed sponge?”

“Bolu steamed? Caca doesn't know how to make it, Mom. Yesterday Caca fried a scorched egg to the point that smoke filled the kitchen like a fire,” Caca said.

“Caca do not worry, later I teach you how to fry the right eggs. Now, Caca would like to accompany you to make a steamed sponge?” ask Mother Puspita.

“It looks like the tool to make a steamed sponge does not exist, Mom. How about for others? Coincidentally Caca wants to eat an onion stick,” Caca said.

“Wah, great idea. What are you waiting for!” exclaimed Mother-in-law and ran small towards the kitchen.

Caca is lucky to have a mother-in-law who is dear to her and does not dictate her flaws. Instead, her mother-in-law was willing to help her without the slightest offense.

“Caca no butter?” ask Mother Puspita.

“It just so happens, Mom. There are still 3 packs for sale,” replied Caca.

“If Mom asks 1 can to make dough?” ask Mother Puspita.

Caca laughed after hearing her mother-in-law's question.

“Of course you can, Mom. Everything is fine too,” replied Caca.

“If everything onion sticks becomes a staple food of Caca and Adi for the next few days,” reply Puspita while holding her laugh.

Caca slowly approached Mother-in-law and hugged her mother-in-law's back from behind.

“Pardon Caca ya Bu, can not be a good wife and good daughter-in-law,” said Caca.

“Ssssuutts.. Can't talk like that, not good. Who said Caca couldn't? As long as Caca wants to try, God willing everything is launched by God,” concluded Ms. Puspita.

Adi had just finished teaching theory in class and decided to immediately go to the cafeteria. His throat was very dry and he needed a fresh drink.

“Pak Adi!” call Intan who suddenly appeared beside Adi.

Adi did not make the call nor looked at Intan who was right on the side.

“Pak Adi! Adi Sir!” call some disciples while running towards Adi.

Intan finally could not get close to Adi, because around Adi there are students.

Adi smiled in his heart because the disciples came at the right time.

“Pak Adi, the task that yesterday I have not finished. Can I still collect?” ask one of the students.

“Bby, collect now at Father's table. Later you will check the task yesterday,” replied Adi.

After answering all the questions from the disciples, Adi hurriedly continued his steps to buy iced tea.

“Thank you,” said Adi who had bought iced tea and drank it until it ran out.

Adi breathed a sigh of relief and chose to relax for a while in the cafeteria while sending a short message to his beloved wife who was at home.

Adi himself did not know that Mother Puspita was still in the rented house accompanying his little wife. If only Adi knew, surely Adi was very happy because his mother and his little wife turned out to be very close.
