FATE AND DESTINY
37.BEEN QUIET!

"Are you not satisfied last night?" Tajudin asked who looked at Alika's face with disappointment.

"I don't know if I'm satisfied or not. To be sure I'm just a wife enough to serve her husband in bed well." Sahut alika does not want to discuss the problem of his bed deeper with tajudin.

Alika then got up from her seat and went to her room. Alika wanted to relax her body for a while because she was tired. Alika was busy with her own thoughts thinking about why her feelings seemed difficult to accept tajudin as her husband. Alika always tried to love her husband but even more hate him somehow can be like that.

Now the day has changed night. As usual, the couple always argue if at night just because of the obligation on the bed. Again alika rejected it somehow alika was so heavy to accept tajudin's request. Until only once a week, Alika gives it only because there is a compulsion from tajudin. The reason for alika is because tajudin does not really change as promised. Tajudin again did not give his birth to alika but to his mother. Alika was upset, alika was disappointed, sick, because as a wife she was never appreciated. Alika is appreciated if tajudin wants a bed scene with her.

"Where is he? It's only one o'clock at night! Why isn't he sleeping?" Tajudin muttered to himself looking for an alika that was not with him.

Tajudin got up from his bed and went out of his room. Tajudin continued to look for the existence of alika, and it turned out that tajudin saw alika was busy with burning firewood boiling cassava in a boiling pot. Alika is starving and wakes up to prop up her stomach.

"What did it do?" Tajudin asked who was already crouching beside alika.

"Boiled cassava!" Reply to Alika briefly without looking at her husband.

"It's night already! Aren't you afraid to be alone in the kitchen next to an empty garden and house!" Tajudin scares alika.

"I'm used to seeing subtle creatures! As long as I don't bother him, he'll just shut up!" Sahut alika flat without fear.

"What have you ever seen?" Tanya tajudin couldn't believe it.

"Every day in the city!" Reply alika expressionlessly still busy with her firewood.

"Then anyway? So lying!" Sahut tajudin did not believe.

"Don't believe it already! What I said doesn't lie like you!" Alika makes tajudin skakmat.

Tajudin fell silent after hearing alika's words that slightly made her unable to answer him. After talking finally cassava was ripe and alika ate it without offering tajudin in front of her and spent all the cassava that had been eaten by herself.

"You didn't offer me to eat cassava deck?" Tajudin asked who looked at alika voraciously without looking at her.

"You eat every day what offers me to eat? Did you know I didn't eat your mom's rice porridge? And I know I don't eat banana heart dishes that I don't like! Did you take the initiative to buy me vegetables for my side dishes? I'm hungry or not are you asking? You eat only for your own stomach, don't think of a pregnant wife starving or not!" Reply alika booed at length to make tajudin pursed his lips do not want to talk much more to alika.

After saying that, Alika glanced cynically and rose from the face of tajudin put an empty plate in the kitchen and stepped back into her room and then laid herself on the mattress. Alika step into her room followed by tajudin behind her. Alika again locked her lips did not talk much to her husband if tajudin did not say or ask something to alika. Tajudin finally came to lie on his mattress with his back and occasionally glanced at alika.

"Alika! I want to." Tajudin's speech looked towards alika who only saw her back.

"It's been almost two weeks I haven't gotten it. Can you let me hold him?" Tajudin said seducing alika with the position still stretched.

"It's been almost a month that I haven't gotten any money from you either. And you can make me feel hungry every day! But I'm silent not much protest!" Answer alika who again makes tajudin checkmate.

"But.." Tajudin speech can not be continued because alika has cut it first.

"Hush still! I'm going to bed. Don't be noisy!" Upset alika still with her position on her back to her husband.

Tajudin was silent and did not say much. Alika getting here the more daring to answer the words of tajudin. Alika already did not care tajudin would be angry or rude to her. Because if it happens it can be used as evidence of domestic violence and she will immediately divorce her husband.

Alika content has now entered the sixth month. Alika's stomach is getting bigger even many say alika is pregnant with twins. Because Alika never checked her on midwives because she did not have money she always prayed that her son would be fine without any defects. But today is a happy day for alika because wardiyo and tareni the brother-in-law has returned home and returned to harmony as before.

"Assynnya!" Said Wardiyo and Tareni together from outside to his home.

"Glamma!" Alika from the kitchen stepped out to someone who came."Diyo! Reni!" Alika enthusiastically greeted the two of them and hugged him as a sister.

"Alika! Sorry, sister huh? I'm sorry I misunderstood you!" Renee who had already let go of her embrace.

"It's okay brother. Alika understands!" Reply to Alika with a big smile."I have a friend at home not alone anymore!" Said again alika felt happy because there was a wardiyo.

"Sleepy kok? Where's alika at?" Tareni asked in search of her in-laws.

"Yes that way! Since I was alone in this house no one wanted to accompany me at home. Mother goes to the garden every day. Every day to the rice fields. My husband went to the coconut grove home in the afternoon and went again to look for wood! So I'm home alone!" Alika poured everything on her sister-in-law.

"It's okay! I also used to be in your position alika. I even split up my house with my husband. But after I gave birth to my in-laws we changed to accept me as his daughter-in-law." Tareni's voice strengthens alika.

"Eh, how to meloow like this! What do you want to drink? Tea or what?" Alika asked not feeling well.

"You just sit down! I'm not alika's guest! Let my husband make me his drink." The sad tareni sahut sees the state of alika now.

Tareni finally got up from her seat and headed for the kitchen to make a drink. By chatting with alika tareni trying to cook that can be eaten also by alika. Tareni took out her small rice cooker and cooked the appropriate rice like alika tongue. Tareni and alika taste equally dislike the half-porridge rice made by her mother-in-law. Alika is a little happy because now there are those who accompany her to cook every day and ask the side dishes on the tareni so that she can eat rice every day.
