"I'm not in salami, Ma'am?" bagas protested at the graceful woman in front of him.


Ms. Ratna immediately stepped on Bagas' feet again until the man shrieked softly for the second time.


"Hum, why step on my foot?" bagas asked the middle-aged woman beside him.


"Your manners! Just shy!" said Bu Ratna with eyes glaring at Bagas.


"Yes, yeah. Sorry." Bagas smiled timidly at Vani. The eighteen-year-old man was immediately captivated by the beauty of Vani as it is.


"Sorry Bagas ya Mba Vani. He's that kid. His mouth likes shit."


Vani just smelled a smile at Bagas' silly behavior. Basic, boy! whispered Vani while shaking slowly.


"It's okay, Mom. His name is also children, uh ...!" Vani immediately smothered his own mouth. Feeling the wrong word to make the man in front there snort with a face does not like.


"I'm a kid, Mba. But I can make a kid too."


The plot!


One hard tip landed on Bagas' head. Bu Ratna increasingly glared at the words of Bagas who increasingly longer added ngawur only.


"Udah ah, long time Mba Vani can hang if you hear me talking. Mba Vani, you go home first? Sorry once again for this mother's son." Pointing at Bagas's face.


Ms. Ratna pulled Bagas' hand and forced the young man to follow her.


"Yes, Mom. Its nothing. Thanks again for that."


Ms. Ratna and her son had already passed from Vani's house. It was time for the woman to come in and clean up before welcoming Faisal home.


After finishing the bath, Vani went to the kitchen. Open the refrigerator and choose some cooking ingredients. Tonight Vani wants to make fried rice for Faisal. He has not eaten since this afternoon either.


The clock shows the number nine. Full fried rice was already present on the dining table. But, the person Vani was waiting for had yet to show himself. Vani sits waiting for her husband's return to get bored by herself.


"Where are you, my friend? Are you still angry?" Vani whispered to himself considering his quarrel with Faisal.


If you think, Vani should be angry because Faisal accused him of lying. But, for Vani to what prolong the problem? He will continue to respect this man.


Until ten o'clock in the evening Faisal had not yet reached home. Vani is tired of waiting for him. His appetite had disappeared. Vani glanced at the two dishes of fried rice that had not been touched there once. He got up and walked away from the dining table to his room.

"It's delicious, Mas. Buy where?" Luna ate with the dishes served in front of her. At nine o'clock Faisal came home from the office and stopped by the mother's house with a variety of food from a fast food restaurant.


"Your wife tell me to come here first, son. Let me eat together" suggested Mr. Harjo to his son.


"Well, sir, use tell Vani to come here? He ate first at home." Ms Widia did not seem to like her husband's proposal. It's good even if Vani isn't here, he thought.


"Don't be like that, Mom. Vani is Faisal's wife. And this food should be brought straight home, son, not brought here." Mr. Harjo advised his son. But, the two women in front there immediately snorted dislikes. I don't know what happened to them until they both hated Vani so much.


"Udahlah, Sir. What do you think about Mba Vani. He's a big one, sir. Laper can cook for himself." Luna agreed with Ms. Widia.


"You too, Lun, why even go along to defend Mom? Poor Mbak–mu it's at home alone. Mbok there call first tell me to come here."


"Related, Sir. Make what? This food is good for all of us. If there is Mba Vani here, then I will not be full dong?" Still chewing with mouth full of food.


Mr. Harjo shook his head to witness the behavior of his wife and two children. It was unexpected that his son-in-law would be treated like that by his own family.


"Son, can you tell that Vani ate alone at home?" Mr. Harjo turned to Faisal again. Faisal looked relaxed as his hands were busy feeding food into his mouth.


"Let's do it, sir. I'm a males again," he replied lacking enthusiasm.


"Tuh, right. Faisal is aja males, let alone us. Yeah, right, Mom?" Luna snatched again.


"Let's do it, sir. What the hell do you think about Vani. Very less work!" Miss Widia melengos. All three seem very compact to ignore Vani. Another case with the old man who was concerned about the fate of Vani.


I'm sorry, Van. You have made your life suffer like this. If you used to not match you with Faisal. Maybe your life is not like this. Mr. Harjo sat down with regret. His intention to follow Vani to replace his late father ended miserably. If only his parents Vani were still there, surely they would be very angry to know the only princess wayangnya treated like this.


"Add this again, Lun, it's delicious." Bu Widia took the fried shrimp and put it on Luna's plate.


"I want to, Mom." Now Faisal's replacement asks the mother to take it.


"Daddy want to ndak? It's delicious, sir. Mumpung Faisal again there is a duwit for buyin." Ms. Widia looked at her husband who had been silent since then and did not enjoy the food in front of her. "Mom get it?"


"No, Mom. Father was full. You guys end it all." Mr. Harjo got up from the dining chair and stepped slowly through the door of the room.
