In-laws, Children and Daughters
Disreputation

"Well, why are you wearing clothes like that anyway, Berliana? There is no fashion at all. You need to learn more about fashion."

Suddenly Juwita commented on the appearance of Berliana, who wore a long Muslim dress with a simple model but looks harmonious to the color of her skin and body Berliana. And so is the veil she wears.

But of course it will never be in the eyes of Juwita, who did not like Berliana from the beginning.

"Ma_sorry, Mama. I really don't know about fashion. I prefer to be comfortable in the clothes I wear."

Berliana nervous. She was uncomfortable and felt unwell because the clothes she was wearing were commented on unkindly by her mother-in-law.

"Huhfff, try Alice, you can learn how to dress interestingly."

"You know who Alice is? look at Alice there to the sosmed! she was my son's lover, Kenzie. She always looks fashionable and elegant. You can learn from him."

"That's what you're wearing, so Kenzie wants to marry you!"

Juwita really felt very upset and irritated, because Berliana's existence seemed to damage his mood. Even though she has dressed up very beautiful with a model of clothing with the best model and stylish for family dinner events. But somehow, after Berliana came all felt broken.

"Hhhfff.. You really make me sick!" Juwita growled with a whimper away.

But before Juwita actually left in front of Berliana, Juwita turned back and said, "but you have to think about how you look in front of others. If you look this tacky, people will think you're not classy."

Juwita again insinuated, by giving an assessment to his son-in-law. Juwita's words that humiliate Berliana is intentional. He wanted to make his son-in-law feel at home, and gave up on being Kenzie's wife.

Berliana felt very devastated and felt unappreciated by her mother-in-law, but she also did not want to look whiny. He held his cry inwardly, trying to stay afloat. He did not want to make Pak kyai, who had betrothed him feel disappointed.

'I must be able to prove that Pak kyai Jalil's choice is the best.' Berliana's mind strengthened his heart.

"Honey, don't ignore what my mom said, yeah!"

Kenzie, who had just come to whisper near his wife's ear, asked not to put the words of his mother in his heart.

Berliana simply nodded, lowering her face. She did not want her husband to see her sad.

"So, don't be romantic too!" Juwita again quipped in a loud voice.

"Hhh. Ma, that's it. We're waiting for the other brothers, don't ruin the mood." Kenzie tried to warn his mother.

"Kenzie, what's so special about him? Her face was not pretty, could not be groomed just like the average woman like us-we are, from the upper class. Wear it, try to choose a nice and sexy there!"

It seemed that Juwita was getting caught off guard and frustrated, as her son was not affected by what she said and did.

"Are you used to it?"

Now Juwita actually has a bad mind, because her son wants to accept Berliana as a wife just like that. Whereas when compared to former Kenzie lovers, Berliana can not be juxtaposed in terms of beauty and appearance.

Kenzie just shook his head, trying to stay patient by reminding his mother. She did not want to scold her mother, because she also did not want to hurt the feelings of the parents who had given birth and raised her. He doesn't want to be a bad boy.

"Ck, just be careful if the big family has gathered and make you ashamed!"

Berliana simply lowered her head by biting her own lips, unwilling to refute her in-laws.

'Oh Allah. At your_I am up to myself. Give me more patience so that this becomes a field of reward for me.'

Berliana could only pray in the heart, so that given strength and patience in facing the attitude of her in-laws who always said rude and could never be good with her.

Shortly after, the Kenzie brothers arrived home. They greet each other, shake hands, and hug each other, like a relationship like.

"Berlin. Help mbok arrange food and serve drinks!"

Juwita ordered Berliana to work in the kitchen alone, not to join in their talks.

"He's your son-in-law, Ma'am. Why did you tell her to go to the kitchen?" Ask a family member who is a guest.

"Just be wild. She's used to kitchen work!" Syndir Juwita with a smile on the corner of her lips.

"Mama…"

From the direction of the door, someone walked in and shouted to Juwita. This cut off his conversation with his brother who had asked.

"Calistas?"

"Hi, beautiful Mama!"

Juwita welcomed the arrival of her daughter, who is currently studying in Bandung. So Calista herself did not know if her brother was married. Just told and asked to go home, in order to get acquainted with Berliana himself directly.

Finally Berliana was called back from the kitchen to get acquainted with her sister-in-law. "This is your sister-in-law!"

Calista narrowed her eyes, seeing how her sister-in-law looked that was far from her expectations.

"Ma, is that right? This time his wife's brother?"

Calista asked in disbelief at what her mother had said, as her mother introduced the woman who was in front of her this time.

"Why? Far from perfect? Say it to your sister!"

Instead of giving good judgment and giving advice to his son, Juwita instead of pumping his daughter to participate in provoking Kenzie. He felt he had an ally to take down Berliana.

"I'm sorry" said Berliana with a lowered face.

"Did brother have an eye? Why did you choose a woman like this?" Calista asked with a shake of head.

"Ah, stop. Mama's tired of advising your sister. Try asking Alice to come home, who knows your sister changed her mind to divorce her."

Berliana's heart hurts. So sick!

But she could only keep quiet and refrain from crying in front of the two women. Two women who should have the same feelings as her, namely themselves.

'Am I that bad in their eyes?' ask Berliana in heart.

"Have gone back to the kitchen!"

Juwita pushed Berliana's shoulder back to work in the kitchen. He, along with Calista, will soon welcome his brothers who are still arriving. While Kenzie himself, from earlier also talked with several brothers in the living room.

"Agrhh…"

Juwita was annoyed when Berliana brought hot soup, but her legs tripped and the soup water hit her hands.

"Basic is not becus! What the hell can you do?!" Jerk Juwita standing up.

Byurrrs

The glass containing orange juice in front of Juwita, now turned over the head of Berliana who wore a veil.

"Sorry Ma, sorry."

The incident that befell Berliana, when humming, is not actually Berliana's fault or intentional. It was Calista, who deliberately put his feet in order to block Berliana's path.

"Sorry, sorry! You intentionally did, want to harm your mother?!" Snapped Calista with bulging eyes.

The atmosphere of the dinner became chaotic, due to this unexpected event. Everyone stood up from his seat, someone helped Juwita, someone helped Berliana. Because most of the soup's water spilled into Berliana's clothes.

Of course Berliana also felt the heat that hit the skin of her hands and feet, but she tried to hide the pain. Because all of that did not hurt more compared to his current heart feeling. What a thing Berliana never expected.

Kenzie himself is confused, willing to help his mother or his wife.
