FATE AND DESTINY

FATE AND DESTINY
29.I WANT TO GO HOME


The days change until the weeks alika's life gets worse. Dull face, rough skin and increasingly blackened because of living in the mountain village. Alika still tries to accept her fate and fate that seems not to be on her side. Alika has now started to get used to being a real village person. But still for him a burden of life that he was unable to live. Alika has started cooking for herself ranging from picking cassava leaves, green pumpkin, kale, papaya leaves to spinach. Alika always tries to keep eating vegetables without rice so that the baby in her womb remains healthy. Although I can't cook alika still trying to eat it even though it tastes bad.


"alika. What's cooking?" Ask biyung amin who came in from outside.


"Ah this.. I want to cook kangkung biyung! Biyung ate already?" Answer alika kindly while slicing kale leaves.


"I ate it with a banana heart saute!" Sahut biyung amin."How to cook kale is not like that. Here biyung ajarin let your cooking taste good!" Biyung amin's orders teach alika how to cook vegetables properly.


With his painstaking biyung amin taught alika from the beginning of sauteing the roof to put his kale until it matures. Alika looks carefully at the way biyung amin cooks until alika tasting her.


"Waaah it feels so good! Can I have a little rice at Biyung's house? Is the rice cooked just like mom or not?" Tanya Alika who happily wants to eat her kale vegetables with rice.


"Why is rice here? Does it taste bad?" Said biyung amin turned to mean to alika.


"The rice that you cook is like pureed grits. I don't like it, even seeing that my stomach feels nauseous." Alika with her sad face.


"Well, shall I see?" Said biyung amin while stepping towards the rice cooker."Oooh the rice is like this? Yes, every day you can take rice in my house until full and satisfied!" Fresh biyung amen on alika feeling pity.


"Seriously yung? Can I get all the rice?" Ask alika enthusiastically.


"Yes.. Rice in my house isn't like your porridge-like father-in-law." Saying biyung amin to alika.


"okay.. Later after everything is done I will bring the side dish to the house and we eat together huh biyung?" Tawar alika felt happy because there were people who wanted to eat together.


With deft alika clean everything at home and clean it so that she can eat at home biyung amin calmly without thinking about the unfinished homework.


***


Now the days of alika have been more relaxed because she always cook vegetables and bring them to the house of biyung amin to eat together. Does not feel the age of alika content has entered into four months. Today Alika felt unwell and woke up a little afternoon. The house became abandoned because it was not cleaned because it was not feeling well. Again the violence he received if the state of the house was in a mess.


"Gubraaakkhh!"


Tajudin opened the door of the room violently after returning home from the garden.


"Dor! Dor's! Dor!"


Tajudin thrusting a sharp celurit into his door made Alika tremble because he woke up in shock.


"Wake up! It's noon! This habit of yours is always waking up during the day and there is no cooking yet! Get up and cook. I'm so hungry!" Shouted tajudin still with a sharp celurit tool in his hand.


Alika trembled and was afraid of sharp tools if released from the hand tajudin pierced her stomach. Finally, alika complied with tajudin's request to cook so that her husband did not come back screaming. Alika cooks with a body full of sweat and a fast heartbeat. After finishing cooking alika strengthens herself in order to complete her task. With teardrops that continue to flow while doing his work. After the tajudin finished eating alika returned alone in the house.


Alika did not answer tajudin's words just looked at her sharply as if she wanted to kill her husband right then and there. After the departure of her husband, Alika rushed to take a bath and changed clothes and sat for a moment on the edge of the mattress to think with a cold head.


"I want to go home! But I don't have any money for the fare! How do I get home without money?" Alika murmured speaking to herself.


Not thinking long alika continued to be determined lillahita'ala to return to her village. Alika was not able to be in her husband's house with this condition continuously.


"Bismillah.. O Allah protect me from all dangers to return to my house!" Say alika to yourself.


Alika rushed to clean her clothes in her closet. Alika brought half her clothes to take home. Do not forget alika brought her jewelry gifts when her wedding is still complete because it should not be sold by her husband. Alika was steady and determined to go home without saying goodbye to anyone because she was alone in the house. Alika went to the house of tajudin's best friend named doni to ask for help to take her down to the city.


"Assalamualaikum mas doni!" Alika said she was at home.


"Girlwindsalam! Alika what's wrong?" Doni asked who had opened the door.


"Can you please take me down to the city?" Ask alika begging."Before that, drop me off at the jewelry store to sell my jewelry for the fare home!" Alika explained his purpose.


"Oooh yaa can! Now then? Did tajudin not deliver?" Ask doni repeatedly.


"Yes now mas! Tajudin already knew I was coming home but because he was busy with his work so couldn't deliver!" Alika is lying so that Doni will take her.


"alright. Please get in the car!" Tell doni to step into his car.


Alika obeys doni's orders to get into her car. Before long the car also walked along a winding journey with alika's lips that continued to think to survive until the destination. Without saying goodbye without leaving a piece of paper alika went from her husband's house to bring his two cellphones so that tajudin can not contact her because the tajudin cellphone has been damaged because it was slammed violently when he was emotional. Finally, Alika arrived at the jewelry store and sold her bracelet for eight hundred thousand for the cost of returning to her village.


"Mas doni's. Thanks for taking me! It's to buy gasoline!" Say alika while handing fifty thousand money to doni.


"Ah don't alika! I'm willing to take you!" Doni rejects alika's money."Nay! This is for the cost of you just going back to the city, huh?" Reject doni without offending alika.


"Thank you again, Doni! May the fortune of doni mas be more abundant and given the safety of long life!" Alika felt bad.


"Yeah amin alika thank you also for the prayer. May you survive your destination?" Doni with his big smile.


Now Doni drove alika to find a bus to his city so that alika did not get harassment. Alika boards the bus assisted by doni who carries her belongings. Not long after the bus finally road and bangs say goodbye to get off the bus and stare at the bus until it is lost from his sight. Doni rushed back to his house. Alika is now on her way home to city X with mixed feelings to shed tears and repeatedly rubbed her.


"I'm sorry! I'm out of your life! Because I can no longer live with you! Sorry if I left without a message. Because if I tell you you'll come back to torture me without your forgiveness!" Muttered alika inwardly while staring at the scene beside the window with her teardrops nonstop.
