FATE AND DESTINY
25.THERE'S NO CHANGE

"Assynoltomodel.." Say hello from outside and go straight into the house.

Alika and Wardiyo have arrived at home. Wardiyo helps alika to sit in the living room chair that is already available. Tajudin who heard alika came home directly to him and rested on the floor facing alika who had sat on the sofa. Alika was surprised to see the attitude of tajudin who was like asking forgiveness to his king.

"Alika! Sorry me. I was wrong with you to make you like this." Say tajudin to alika with her face.

"I've forgiven my brother. But I beg you, don't force your will again if I'm not ready!" Answer alika wisely trying hard with what he has received.

"I promise, I won't force you again!" Tajudin held alika's hand tightly.

Wardiyo and Dariyah who saw tajudin finally smiled knot feeling relieved. Because since alika hospital Tajudin never wanted to eat and drink just locked himself in the room. Tajudin has even replaced his new mattress, because his old mattress is full of blood and throw it in the garbage depot because it is not worth using. After pardoning, williyo finally spoke up about the actual state of alika so that tajudin slightly resisted the condition of alika.

"Din! I want to talk. It's important about alika's ahead." Say cardiyo and hug tajudin's shoulder to herd her out so that alika does not hear it.

"What are you talking about, brother?" Reply tajudin who has been sitting in his house.

"Look.. The doctor said that alika was infected on the inside of her genitals. It is caused by you who are dirty because before marriage you have changed partners. Is that really so?" Obviously cardiyo and press on tajudin to be honest.

"Sorry brother. I used to be like that. But after I got married I was no longer like that! Even as long as Alika refuses I try to hold her!" Answer tajudin with his serious face.

"Yes, I know! But it was because of you that made this alika! Even you did it to make it bleed!" Disappointed with his sister's behavior.

"Yes.. Now I'm sorry, and I promised not to force her again!" Answer tajudin with a frustrated face.

"alright. And this is an important thing that you must obey!" Said wardiyo staring at tajudin intensely."The doctor warns you not to touch it for up to six months. Because alika must be clean first from her infection! Understand!" Wardiyo gave a warning to her sister.

"Whathh!! Six months?" Tajudin was surprised to hear his brother's explanation."Does it have to be that long I have to hold her?" Tajudin could not imagine how tormented he had been for six months of restraint.

"It's all because it was you who made your wife like that! Don't blame the doctor. And for once a week alika must control on time should not be late even one day!" Obviously wardiyo again gives affirmation to tajudin.

Tajudin finally listens to hear the word cardiyo. He could not imagine having to hold back for six months not having sex with his wife.

***

Day after day has passed. Alika who still has to fight herself is upset with her husband who only promised to change but only changed for a few days. After passing her back to the same attitude as the beginning of married alika. Wardiyo has left to travel to Jakarta to meet the needs of his wife so that her relationship improves as usual. Alika has been handed over to tajudin as her husband to be more responsible. But the responsibility he had to take back was ignored by tajudin.

Dirty clothes that have accumulated unwashed and food that must be provided are not filled by tajudin. Alika I was faced with the attitude of tajudin that the more here it became no change. Alika who has not been able to do much activity finally had to do everything herself without asking for help from her husband. Alika continues to try to find ways to get herself back to recovery looking for traditional medicine through google. Alika then washed her clothes that had been one bucket and peeled cassava to cook as the contents of her stomach so as not to starve. More and more alika gets used to her life in the village even though she rarely eats rice made in-laws that are almost as close as porridge. Alika felt nauseous seeing rice that was like porridge because alika did not like the porridge made from rice. Alika prefers a smooth clear marrow pulp.

"Jeek! Yuck!"

Alika spewed out all her entrails in the garden behind her in-laws' house. It felt like the stomach was kneaded and shaken so violently. I don't know what made Alika vomit.

"Ouch! Why does my stomach hurt so much? Is it because I never eat rice? Is it because I just eat cassava every day, to make my stomach like this?" Ask Alika to herself while pressing on her stomach that hurts.

"Alika! What are you doing there?" Tanya Tajudin who just came to bring coconut flower water that will be boiled in order to become brown sugar.

"I.. I was sick and my stomach hurt! Maybe it's in the wind." Sahut alika turned towards tajudin.

"Have you eaten?" Ask tajudin who is approaching alika.

"I ate boiled cassava earlier." Answer alika who does not like the rice cooked in-laws.

"Hmmm.. Every day you just eat cassava are you not bored?" Tajudin asked who was astonished by his wife.

"I've told you repeatedly. I don't like rice that's almost like porridge. Just look at it my stomach is nauseous let alone to eat it?" Anxious alika that never noticed by tajudin.

"Yes it's up to you. What matters is that I told you to eat rice! Don't blame me if you get sick!" Said tajudin who did not want to be bothered by his wife.

"Hmm got a husband like got a display! I don't care about the wife. Only selfishness alone! It feels like I'd like to slice her bird into a fried banana!" Alika muttered feeling annoyed with her husband's attitude.

Alika finally tried to rest for a moment so that her body was more relaxed. While sleeping he was again surprised by the attitude of tajudin who was always rude if moving throughout his house.

"Astaghfirullahal. We can slow down if we open and close the door! Don't see if anyone's on a break!" Angry with his emotional face.

"If you want to rest in peace? Sleep in the cemetery there! Don't be in this house!" Answer the tajudin who does not want to be blamed by his wife.

"Hmmm basic husband is useless! Work every day from dawn to magrib but never give a dime for three months! What does he consider his wife? Got a husband but I'm living a kara life!" Alika murmured yet still heard to herself.

For three months alika was never given a living by tajudin. Because for tajudin the wife only needs to eat no more than that.
