The stomach that used to look slim is now seen starting to bulge. The age of the fetus in the womb Fina has entered the third month. The three-monthly event was just held three days ago. The family from Mojokerto also attended the ceremony. There were some close neighbors who attended the invitation from Benny.
"Darling, I'm off to work first. Don't be too tired at home" said Benny after finishing preparing. As usual, the former widower looked handsome and charming.
"Be careful, Mom. Keep safety, heart, eyes and mind. Don't fuck around!" Fina gave the warning to her husband.
"Ma, I also want to leave," said Elza as she grabbed Fina's hand. The little boy kissed the back of Fina's hand with reverence.
"school spirit. Stay focused when working on the exam," said Fina after landing a kiss on the son's head.
Today Elza will take the final semester exam. The five-year-old boy had actually mastered all the lessons in Kindergarten. Maybe this exam to determine if he continues his education in Kindergarten or can go straight to SD. Given, his ability was above the average of his classmates. There are a lot of things that the school is considering about Elza. Given there's no way she's going to be in SD at this age.
"Oh yes, how about Elza come home later? I just pick it up so Mas doesn't need to go back and forth on the road" asked Fina after remembering how the son would be.
Lately Fina is no longer waiting for Elza to go to school because her son can interact normally. Never hit or fight with their peers. So, Fina also began to release Elza at school in order to become independent.
"I was the one who picked him up. Besides, I'm also just checking things at the store. Not to the factory" stop Benny. He did not want Fina to go alone let alone ride a motorcycle because it could endanger his safety.
"Good father," murmured Fina while rubbing her husband's jaw.
"Ih! Mama's dating Papa continues!" elza protest as it passed from the porch of the house. The little boy decided to get in the car.
"Look, Mas. Our son can already call us dating. Aiih .. Hopefully if he grows up later he is not like you! Playboys!" fina said while pursing her lips.
"Kok so I'm the one who got it?" Benny frowned after hearing his wife say, "I go first," Benny concluded before the discussion widened everywhere. The sensitive feeling that Fina felt lately made Benny more cautious when acting in front of his wife.
Fina rushed into the house after the car her husband was driving passed. As usual, every morning Fina spent her time on the back porch. He had some plants and flowers arranged near the koi pond. The remaining plot of land from Benny's house has been turned into a beautiful and comfortable place for anyone occupying one of the seats on the back porch.
"Mother Fina, there's Benny's mother coming" Jumiatin reported as she approached Fina on the back porch.
"Ani's mother?" Fina assured the intention of her domestic assistant, "please make warm tea first yes, Mbok. I want to wash my hands for a while" Fina said after Jumiatin answered her question.
After cleaning her hands and feet, Fina rushed into the house to meet her mother-in-law. He was also curious about what made his mother-in-law came to this house, because only yesterday after Ani was in this house to organize a three-month event.
"Assalamualaikum, ma'am," said Fina when she reached the living room, "Who's mother coming with you?" fina asked while looking for the whereabouts of someone who might escort her mother-in-law.
"Vaalaikumsalam. She was with Sari, but now she went to the market" replied the middle-aged woman.
"Monggo drink first, ma'am, warm tea." Fina picked up a cup of warm tea for her in-laws, "What do you need to do to come here? But if something is important, you can call. Later I and Mas Benny who came there," asked Fina while patting her thigh.
"Well, if you know what, ma'am?" Fina was getting curious.
"It's about Benny and Dita" Ani said without a doubt.
"What happened to Mas Benny and Dita, Mom? Honestly I don't know anything" Fina replied with a gaze that could not be separated from her mother-in-law's face.
A heavy sigh rang out from the middle-aged woman. Ani changed her position to sit sideways and looked at Fina meaningfully, "you're Benny's wife. When you don't know what happened?" ask Ani.
"Really, Mom, I don't know anything. Mas Benny never discussed Dita's problem," explained Fina.
"Since Dita hit Elza at that time, Benny no longer sent the snack ration to Dita. Monthly money used to pay car installments is not given your husband. Don't you know about this?" ani clearly.
"Mom, as long as I'm married to Mas Benny. One month of income how much I don't know. I was just given my snack rations, Elza needs, home needs and more. All were put in their envelopes. So for Dita's other business, I don't know." Fina explained the truth she had been through all this time.
"Mas Benny just says if there is a sudden need or I want something, just tell him," added Fina.
Ani only sighed after hearing her daughter-in-law's answer. Between believing and not believing after hearing that long explanation, because it was impossible if Fina did not know the financial affairs of this family.
"You're not lying, are you?" cecar Ani with his sharp gaze.
"Astagfirullah. No, Madam. I've told you what the truth is," Fina said in a trembling voice. He is saddened by this accusation.
The two women of different generations kept talking. Several times Fina had to endure tightness in the chest as her father-in-law several times floated insinuations. Even worse, Ani dared to compare Nurmala with him.
"Mom, I've never done all the things that Mother's prejudices. If there really is a problem between Mas Benny and Dita, why am I to blame?" asked Fina with eyes that were already dewy.
The middle-aged woman stood up from her place. He was angry because he thought about this matter. Ani was pensively looking back at Fina with all thoughts raging. I don't know what made Ani do all this to her daughter-in-law.
"Fin, I don't mean to blame you or compare you. As a mother, I'm honestly sad to see that Benny and Dita don't get along. I just can't bear to see Dita getting drunk because I have to find extra money. Yes .. although I know that none of this is your husband's responsibility, but how else. All this time Benny never did this to Dita, but now he does. One day you will know what it is like to be a mother. You must be sad if you see your children do not get along," explained Ani at length to make Fina more cornered.
