I Fall in Love Wrong
Chapter 14 The Mandul?
Little by little the still warm porridge went into his stomach. Perih, nausea and discomfort felt when the food managed to get into his stomach.
This porridge must be finished. I promised Raymond I'd eat it. And I also need to heal. I can't fall like this. I must be strong for myself so as not to be easily trampled by others, Velicia said in her heart while grimacing feeling her aching stomach when food reached inside her stomach.
Velicia spent a long time eating. After that he took his medicine and laid his body on his bed.
Today I will enjoy to laze around and rest in peace, Velicia said in her heart as she closed her eyes.
For a few hours Velicia fell asleep again until the sky outside had darkened. Velicia's house darkened without any light she ignited.
"Mother.Mother..Mother Lili, Mother," cried Ferdi while entering the house.
"It's dark. Is Velicia really home?" ask a woman who walks into the house to follow Ferdi.
Ferdi lights all the lights in every room. Then he put his briefcase on the sofa and took off his tie.
"Mother.. Mother...Lili's mother, are you in the room?" ferdi asked in a loud voice towards the room.
"Ferdi, look at this! Did your wife never clean the house? This is his house too, he should keep his house clean and arrange it to be neat, pleasing to the eye and comfortable to live in" said the woman who came with Ferdi earlier.
Yeah, that's right. That woman was Miss Anisa, mother of Ferdi, Velicia's in-law.
He happened to come when Ferdi was about to enter his house. They met in front of the house and entered the house simultaneously.
Ferdi stopped his steps, he turned his head towards his mother. Then he sighed heavily looking at the chaos caused by it.
He forgot that this morning before leaving for work did not clean up everything he wore.
And he forgot that Velicia, his wife, was sick today and probably couldn't clean up the house.
"Velicia is sick, ma'am. He has to rest to recover quickly" said Ferdi trying to calm his mother.
"Meoow.. meoooww.. meooow.
He was next to his food container and moved it as if telling Ferdi that he was hungry and telling Ferdi to fill it immediately.
Ferdi crouched down before Lili, then he gently rubbed Lili's fine fur and said,
"Are you hungry, Lilie?"
"Meooow..," said Lili as if confirming the question that Ferdi addressed to her.
Ferdi took Lili's food and poured it on the food container.
Miss Anisa who was in the kitchen with a face was very upset to see the number of dirty dishes and glasses earlier. Then he approached Ferdi and he scrunched his forehead.
"What is this Ferdi? Since when do you keep cats?" asked Ms. Anisa in a dislike tone.
For a moment Ferdi stopped his movements. Then he answered his mother's question.
"This cat is called Lili. I brought him to this house."
"Ferdi, are you kidding me? Look at that, even the sandbox was not replaced and scattered everywhere. That must have smelled so bad. So dirty you guys are. How can Velicia as a woman just keep quiet to see her house is a mess like this," said Anisa Bu with a high tone.
Ferdi closed his eyes, forgetting that his mother was very sensitive to cleanliness, especially cleanliness in the house.
Anisa's mom is upset. He sat on the sofa looking at what Ferdi was doing with his cat.
"What the fuck, pillows, blankets, all here. Did Velicia sleep here while you were working? In the dirty kitchen, it's a mess here too. What's he doing at home?" Ms. Anisa grumbled while sitting and folding the blanket that Ferdi used to sleep last night.
"Mom, it's me.." Ferdi hung up his sentence, he couldn't continue what he was going to say.
I'm afraid you know I'm sleeping on the couch. I better not tell him, Ferdi said in his heart.
"You why Ferdi? You sleep here?" ask Bu Anisa to investigate.
"No, not Ma. Looks like the pillow and blanket will be dried earlier," replied Ferdi lying to his mother.
"Ck, your wife is every mother comes here always makes Mom work hard. Just then how many instant noodles did you throw away," Anisa's mother again grumbled.
Just look at Ferdi's eyes. He remembered that yesterday when he was looking for instant noodles he accused Velicia of spending it.
And Velicia told him that her mother threw it away. It's just that he forgot about it so he didn't ask his mother.
"Why did Mom throw away that instant noodle Mom? It is normal if there is an instant noodle supply at home," said Ferdi as if objecting to what his mother said.
"Lumrah? Because most of the consumption of such food can make you long have offspring," said Bu Anisa with a rising voice.
"But not every day, Mom. At least once a month. Velicia always cooks Mom for us" Ferdi said, holding Lili and sitting on the sofa next to her mother.
"Just Mother still does not allow you to eat instant noodles, no matter what," said Bu Anisa firmly as if not to be denied.
Ferdi rubbed the soft lili fur that was placed on his lap.
Anisa's mother looked pityfully at Ferdi. He felt sorry for his son who seemed to want the presence of a child so much that he considered the cat as his child.
"Pity you Ferdi, you should be your son, not a cat" said Bu Anisa, looking pity at Ferdi.
Ferdi just smiled bitterly at the words of his mother. Then he said,
"How else, ma'am, it has not been given the same power."
"His herbal medicine is drunk every day with your wife, right? There are so many children of friends Mother who managed to have children after taking herbal medicine every day," said Bu Anisa while looking at Ferdi to find answers to her questions.
"Maybe it's not time yet, ma'am. Later if it's time, surely we will have children" said Ferdi reassured his mother.
Bu Anisa looked at Ferdi sharply with narrowed eyes and said,
"You are, lest one of you be barren?"
"Mom, why are you talking like that? Even though you know if we have checked ourselves many times. We're both fine and it doesn't seem like it's time we had a child" Ferdi said in a firm voice rejecting what his mother had accused him of.
"Then, where's the evidence?" asked Bu Anisa who seemed to challenge him.
Chequek!
"What's this?"
