FATE AND DESTINY
12. WE GOTTA TALK
"If you do not want alika to work, then fill her needs properly! Where is there a wife who is not given a living born, cannot work, cannot trade, and is not fed a decent meal will remain silent? You're looking out there. Is there such a woman?" Said ema getting emotional with teary eyes did not accept her son treated like a doll.
"It's not like that, Mom! I mean.." Answer tajudin wanted to explain his point but was cut off by ema.
"Aaah! Remember yaa tajudin! If later you hear again alika only eat once a day at your home! I'll teach you a lesson!" Smoke ema with a tone full of emphasis plus an expression that wants to beat the tajudin right then and there.
Alika who saw ema getting out of control tried to calm her mother so that there was no commotion. Tajudin who saw ema with a red face extinguished plus a trembling body withstanding emotions finally chose silence not to speak anymore. Tajudin admitted that he had gone too far. Tajudin looked at alika with a sharp gaze like he was going to pounce on her. tajudin did not expect alika would complain everything to ema the mother.
Alika has now managed to calm ema and tajudin already in her room. Ema who already felt better chose to remain silent in her room and closed her eyes by lying on the bed. While alika followed her husband who was in her room to talk from heart to heart so as not to constantly fight just because of trivial things. Now Alika was in her room and was silent for a moment after seeing tajudin sitting on the floor leaning against the wall of the mattress while massaging her temple that felt dizzy.
"Sister! We need to talk!" Alika was still standing watching her husband sitting on the floor.
"Speak! My ears are not deaf and can still hear you from a distance of one meter." Reply tajudin with a cold tone that still pinches his temple.
"Sister! I'm serious!" Said alika who was upset by stomping one leg.
"Yes I'm serious alika too! You want me in that position how to hear you talk?" Teeking tajudin with a slightly high tone turned towards alika.
"If you're always like this, when will you be happy without any problems?" Ask alika with a slightly high tone.
"What do you want me to be like? Cuddle up and sing a song while you're under the hood? Or do you want me to pamper you like your mother spoils you?" Shouted tajudin directly standing facing alika who was still standing in front of the room door from inside.
"Plaque!"
Alika slapped tajudin hard because she could no longer bear the emotions that saw the attitude of tajudin. Tajudin who was slapped by alika held her hot cheek and stared at alika sharply. Tajudin wanted to slap alika in return, but he said he remembered himself being at home in-laws. Tajudin did not want to add to the problem of getting bigger. Tajudin immediately turned his body and took a jacket that was attached to the back of the chair and then went out of the house without saying goodbye to him. Tajudin did not know where his feet should go, he did not know the city xx alika lived since childhood. His feet continued to tread aimlessly with a blank look. An uncertain heart feels like it wants to scream as loud as possible.

Alika overslept waiting for tajudin who never came home. Ema who saw the alika fall asleep in the living room chair was shocked. Ema wanted to wake alika but she said because she wanted to beat her daughter-in-law who let alika sleep in her living room. Ema walked by stomping her feet towards alika's room to call tajudin to bring alika moved to her room. When she opened the door of the room occupied by Alika was surprised not to see tajudin in the room. Ema clingukan looks for tajudin in all the places in her home but still does not find tajudin. Ema sighed harshly and went back to Alika in the guest room. Ema could not bear to wake alika who was already at two in the morning. But ema still do it because curious tajudin no one at home who does not go anywhere.
"Eehh mama! What's up, mah? Mama, did you wake up? Is it morning?" Tanya alika in a row while rubbing her eyes because of the crying caused by tajudin.
"Hmm you're a habit to ask like a train! Said Ema still sitting next to alika and rubbed her back gently."Mom woke up wanting to pee. But I'm surprised to see you sleeping here until this hour. Did you fight with your husband because of my dear mother?" Ask ema with a curious expression.
"Yeah mah! Alika quarreled with him, but not because of mama! This is because he cannot relax when spoken to! Everything is always faced with emotion when talking to alika!" Sahut alika while leaning her hands on her knees and rubbing her face violently because of frustration facing her husband who is difficult to talk to.
"Then. Where did your husband go? Did he go home without Mom's permission?" Ask ema in an investigative tone but still in a position rubbing alika's back.
"I don't know where he is! I've been waiting for him until I fall asleep here. But he hasn't come home yet! I want to find him, I'm afraid he can't go back home because he doesn't know the way in this town!" Sahut alika while leaning against the living room sofa and spread her head against the sofa while staring at the roof of her house.
"Did he have a cell phone?" Ask ema out of panic if her daughter-in-law will get lost in an area that does not know the way home.
"His cellphone was left in mah's room! Alika also has no motor to look for him. Alika also did not know what to do now!" Alika replied annoyed while sitting straight and shaking her head.
"Yes, you are patient! He was an adult, he would definitely ask if he did not know the way home. You don't worry, especially if he also never wandered definitely won't be afraid of getting lost!" Sahut ema calms alika while pulling her head to lean against her chest and rubbing her gently.
Alika kept shedding her tears nonstop. Alika no longer knows how to talk to men like tajudin. Alika is actually lazy if she has to talk to her husband. But alika thinks will be until when the relationship is like a tangled thread that is difficult to straighten. Alika was frustrated and disappointed with the attitude of her husband who never understood his position. Alika, who has always been spoiled for as long as she is in love with her ex, now has to rack her brain how to spoil her stubborn and angry husband.
***
After spilling all her tears now Alika has returned to sleep in her room accompanied by ema who continues to caress the head of alika gently. Ema is worried about the condition of alika who continues like this because she has to face her husband who knows what he wants. After alika fell asleep now she moved from alika's room and returned to her room to continue her sleep that had been disturbed because she wanted to urinate. Now everyone has fallen asleep in the morning three. Ema also did not forget to lock the door of her house so that she could sleep quietly without any interference.
