The gloomy face and pursed lips are clearly visible on the usual beautiful face that looks cheerful. Of course Benny wondered what would cause his wife's attitude to change. He knew that his wife was holding back tears because her beautiful eyes were dewy.
"After this we buy breakfast first yuk!" take Benny while reaching for Fina's hand to hold it.
"As for Mas only," he replied in a trembling voice.
Shortly after, Benny's egg roll order was completed. They immediately went from there to look for a lesehan stall that was open in the car free day. Incidentally, shortly after they walked down the cast road, they found a lesehan pecel stall. Benny chose a place that was quiet enough to be able to talk to Fina.
"What's up, honey?" benny asked after ordering a breakfast menu for the three of them.
"That's me meeting a neighbor. They're talking about us who aren't. I sprained them, Mas," Fina said in a still trembling voice. Fina deliberately turned her back on Elza so that her son did not know if his tears could not be contained anymore.
This situation was certainly not something that was surprising to Benny. He understood that his wife was experiencing mood changes due to pregnancy hormones. Like her experience when Nurmala was pregnant with Elza, she also faced a big mood change from Elzayin's mother.
"Propsy. Let them think badly of us. You should not get stuck because of the neighbor's talk. Just let them say how," said Benny, clasping his wife's hand tightly.
"Mama! I'll buy that toy!" point Elza at a toy dealer not far from her current place.
"Yes, you will buy Papa" said Benny so that his son would not hear Fina's voice trembling with tears.
"Monggo," said the owner of this pecel stall when serving three servings of rice for the three of them.
"We should have breakfast first, then talk again. Want me a bribe?" benny asked while looking at Fina meaningfully.
Fina did not immediately answer Benny's offer because she was still observing the circumstances around, "want dong. Mumpung no one saw," said Fina while smiling sweetly. The gloomy face suddenly disappeared after getting a sweet offer from the husband.
"Cie ... Papa same Mama dating ya! Like in the movie!" elza said when he saw his father was feeding a tablespoon of food to his mother.
The warmth of the family was felt there after the former widower paid more attention to Fina. He managed to restore the mood of his wife who was pregnant young. A loving look and a big smile are clearly visible on Benny's charming face. What he had done to Fina certainly managed to make some of the girls who were there feel envious.
"Let's continue the walk," asked Benny after finishing breakfast at the pecel lesehan stall.
The little family walked the car free day area with joy. They buy a lot of food to take home. Fina herself seemed to be in a hurry because she bought food in almost all the carts there. They decided to go home after their feet were tired. The sun began to show its power so that the road began to feel hot.
"Huh! Finally there," murmured Fina with a sigh after reaching her mother's house. He sat on the porch of the house to stretch the muscles of the body that feels stiff.
Benny and Elza decided to enter the house. Not to forget they brought in all the food to give to Badiah and Nisa. Shortly after, Benny returned to the terrace with a glass of water for his wife.
"Drink a lot of water, let it be strong," said Benny while giving the glass to Fina.
"Thank you, Papa," Fina replied with a sweet smile.
"I'm gonna take a shower, Fin. You're not here by yourself, are you?" ask Benny.
"No papa times, Mom. Don't let it!" Fina warned her husband, "Bath first there," Fina pushed away as she pointed at the living room door. A code to get Benny out.
Now Fina lives alone on the porch of the house. He opened his sling bag to pick up the phone. The beautiful woman wants to upload photos of togetherness today on her social media.
"Waalaikumsalam," Fina replied while keeping her phone in the bag, "Bu Neneng wants to find mom?" asked Fina with a friendly attitude.
"No, Fin. I'm here there needs to be the same you," said Neneng while circulating his gaze around. It seemed like the forty-year-old woman was making sure of the circumstances around.
"Oh so. What is necessary, Mom? How about we just talk inside?" tawar Fina while pointing at the living room.
"No need, Fin. I'll just be a minute" said Neneng, "so, Fin. Actually I came here to trouble you," said Neneng with a faint smile.
"How much, Mom?" Fina was more confused to face the RW sir's wife.
"I want to borrow money from you, Fin. I don't know where else to borrow money to pay for Nanda's school" Neneng said in a very clear voice, "i'm actually ashamed to do this, but how else, I need it," clearly Neneng while smiling bitterly.
"How much do you really need?" Fina suddenly could not bear to see the story of her neighbor. He recalled how it used to be a time of trouble finding loans for Nisa's school fees.
"One million is no, Fin? I return it if I get a rally next month" Neneng said in a whisper.
"Sorry, ma'am if a million doesn't exist. It's in my wallet there's only five hundred thousand. If one million I have to withdraw cash first because the money is in the account," replied Fina while opening her wallet and removing five pieces of pink rupiah.
"Yes, that's all. Don't tell anyone, Fin. This is the secret of both of us" Neneng said when receiving the money.
The conversation took place there for a few minutes. Neneng also pampit home after having a chance to mince words with Fina. He was afraid that someone would see him there because of course Neneng prestige if anyone knew if he owed Fina.
"Mom! Why in debt love is it a person! It won't be paid, ma'am!" Suddenly Nisa appears behind the door of the living room.
"Don't do it, Nis. This child remembers when we were difficult. Mom and I are having a hard time finding a loan for your school fees. Huuuh .. it feels really sad that no one gave the loan," explained Fina with a heavy breath.
"Yes, Mother. I know if we should help each other. But Ms. Neneng owed it to her mother already piled up. If it's not wrong, three million. He said he got paid time, didn't he?" guess Nisa while looking at her sister.
Fina only nodded her head after hearing her sister's guess. Then, he listened to the story that Nisa had been telling all this time. Apparently, there are some neighbors who owe to Badiah but never paid. They suspect that Badiah has a lot of money because he has a wealthy daughter-in-law.
"I feel sorry for Mom. If not borrowed, it must be a rumor in the radar congregation. The average debt is group debt. They must have said 'Bam Bad, I borrowed the money. Tomorrow I will return it early in the morning.' It's a really big mode! Until now no one wants to pay the debt to Mom." Nisa looks emotional when telling how things are there.
"Otherwise that Neneng. He's not in trouble, ma'am. He owes because he has to pay laterpay installments. Almost every day, a package arrives. Her life was luxurious," Nisa explained as she looked at her brother.
Only a heavy breath could be heard there. Fina did not expect that there were irresponsible people who disturbed her family life.
"Yes already then after this do not let anyone owe again. Pity Mom if this continues the way. Do they think we're a money-making bank, huh, Nis?" Fina was also furious with her mother's naughty neighbors.
