Doctor Niko's Secret
Just building porters


"Mas, next week there's a celebration at Uncle's house. So the money remittance is added yes. I want to buy new clothes, bags and sandals. I'm ashamed dong Mas if I have to wear that shirt while there is a family event," said a woman from across the phone with a sharp tone to Niko.


"Yes Dek, I'll send the money over the weekend as usual. But Mas does not promise to be able to give extra or not, because Mas can not be overtime." replied Niko in a low tone, but he got a higher-pitched response from his wife Mila.


"Oh, that's your business, not mine! The important thing is that I ask you because you are my husband. As a man, you should try dong how can nurutin request wife. On the side of the cake, or as a kek or something important can be a lot of money." cerocos Mila, the woman who for the past year has been Niko's wife.


"Yes Dek, I've tried to work hard to meet the needs of our family. You are patient yes, doain Mas in order to get a lot of sustenance and can obey all your will." said Niko then by keeping a low tone. She is not at all provoked by the emotion of hearing Mila's babble, although Mila and her family often demean her.


"Patience, keep patient! When to be patient? You're a creative dong, find another classier job so I'm not ashamed to have a husband who works just as a building porters!" cecar Mila to her husband.


Before and during her marriage to Mila, Niko was indeed just a building porters who often worked from city to city to provide for her family. His life in the village made it difficult for him to find a definite job, so the only option that can be taken without having a high educational background is to become a building lecturer. However, the profession that is practiced by Niko often gets a one-eye response from the Mila family.


"Where did Mila, you tell your husband to ask for more money?" ask Niko's in-law, Sari, to her daughter, after seeing them finish communicating by phone.


"Already Ma'am," replied Mila lazily.


"Keep, what did he answer? Later remittance of your shopping ration will be added right?" ask Sari later.


"Yes ma'am, but the addition is not money, but must be patient!" suhut Mila, again with a sour tone.


"Entahlah Mom, it was Mother who first knew him as well as me. If you know you will live right after this, mending Mila used to be TKW just go abroad and get a lot of money!" ketus Mila responded to the babbling of her mother. He protests to Sari, because it was Sari who told Mila to marry Niko.


"Well, how do you know this is what it's like? All I know is that her parents have a lot of land. You will get a lot of legacy. Uh, it turned out to be like this." Sari's pretext to justify herself.


When they were talking about Niko, suddenly their door was knocked. Mila hurried to the door and opened it. Apparently there was a neighbor Mila who came giving by by by after going on vacation.


After receiving a gift from her neighbor, Mila violently shut the door of her house. And with wide strides, he walked towards his mother while exclaiming. "Now look at Mom! Wanna get to when we're just receiving gifts by from a neighbor's vacation? Do I want to go on vacation too? But my husband really can't be relied on!" mad at Mila while imagining Niko's face. During this time the money given by Niko is only fitting for shopping daily needs. While Mila, she always demands more from Niko. Mila often feels jealous if there are neighbors who live more. Niko could not keep up, so Niko often got spicy and bad sentences from her wife and in-laws.


"You think you're the one who's upset? Mother gospel was upset too. Look at Ms. Fatma next door neighbor, she often bought her new coat and new jewelry. Lah Mother? Boro Boro your husband wants to give you new clothes and new jewelry, shopping money just fitting. Eating every day is just like tofu, tempeh and eggs!" timpal Sari's. She likes to vilify her daughter-in-law, not only behind Niko, but also in front of her or in front of the crowd.


Elsewhere, Niko was daydreaming about his wife's increasingly rude remarks. Niko felt not appreciated at all. His efforts to work hard to support his wife and in-laws, only in one eye. And when Niko was late in her daydream, she heard someone's voice.


"Dok, ten minutes to go there's an operation schedule. Everything is ready, and just waiting for the presence of the doctor in the operating room" said a nurse.


Niko was surprised when she heard the voice, she then threw away thoughts about her family, then focused more on her work.
