Chapters 14. Busy Each

pov.

In the end, Pravita did not keep her promise. She not only left for a week, more than a month she stayed at her parents' house. Papah and Mamah have several times given warnings to threats, but what? Koas is carried out in a hospital that is closer to the parents' house than the house of her husband who in fact far away and difficult access to public transportation.

"Why don't you ask your husband to buy you a car to go back and forth?" Ask Mamahnya.

"No, not Mah. He's stingy." Cibir Pravita, actually that's not the reason because he himself never talked about asking to buy a car on Naufan.

"Because why the hell, when I'm a child myself, can't live in my own parents' house? Every day I'm taken in, I'm gonna get dizzy." Reveal Pravita while removing her pantofel shoes.

"The thing is, you're married. That's not it, dong. If your husband catches up with another woman, he just knows how you feel." As always, a mamah for a Pravita is only he who always gives warnings and threats when his attitude is not as expected. Pravita had been used to such treatment since childhood.

"Bodo is very, I'm not afraid either. Divorce even if I'm ready." Pravita. As her parents grew up, Pravita grew up to be a stubborn and strong-willed girl.

"Hus, don't be rude to you. Mom will call Naufan to pick you up now." The middle-aged woman took her phone and dialed her daughter-in-law's number. Enabling the loudspeaker icon.

"Hello, good night, Mah. What's up?" Naufan said across the phone.

"Son, please pick up your wife to come home. Otherwise, he'll forever wander off and won't come home." Said this one in-law who made his son-in-law laugh.

"Mah!" Pravita snatched the phone from the table and disconnected the connection.

"Mistake what the hell? Why did it interfere with my life? If you talk like that, I don't have the pride to know?!" The girl was angry.

"If you don't like me staying here, okay! I'll find another inn." Pravita did not go to her room, her goal was no longer to her room but to go out of the house.

In front of the house, there was a man who just got out of his car. "Pravita? Went where? Why is it pouting like that?" His face asked, the man held the arms of his eldest daughter and was worried because of the grim look on Pravita's face.

"A fight with Mamah again?" Ask the Papah. Pravita just shook her head, lazy to talk about things that are not important in her opinion.

"Come, get in the house. In and out." His father's orders slightly pulled his son's arm. Pravita held herself back, she heavily stepped inside the house.

"Mommy kicked me out, Pah." Pravita said later. He was reluctant to enter the house again if the edges would get scolding.

"No, it's impossible. Mama like that because it is already hard nature," the man gave understanding to his son.

"Well, that mama always humbled me in front of Naufan or his family. It made me seem worthless in their eyes, impressed that the mother was asking too much so that I would not be banished by Naufan and his family. Why is that Pah, ma'am?" Pravita said to her father.

Unlike the mama, the papah is more concerned with Pravita. If giving advice, the man never cornered the position of his son and also did not provide a meaningful threat. Although sometimes the purpose of thinking between husband and wife is the same related to the good for his son.

"Yes, papah understands. But, try. Next time position yourself in the person's point of view. From the perspective of the mother, for example." The father's figure stroked Pravita's arm.

"See from what point of view? If what you see is my life and happiness, or I am abundant in price. That's not true, I live on my own money. Naufan just made me a tool for him, a tool for him to get his family's legacy." The boy's light was on his father. There was a faint sound, but the man only responded with a ruckus and a head bobble.

Not the meaningful support given to his son, Pravita was again made to not understand what happened and what his parents thought. "You just don't understand. Trust me, there will be good to be gained." Father said.

The next day, Naufan came to his father-in-law's house. Because of the request of the in-laws, as a person who was playing the role of a kind daughter-in-law, he obeyed all his in-laws.

"Son, you don't mind if your wife's been here that long?" Ask mama-in-law.

The man smiled and just nodded, "it's been talked about, Mah. Before, we agreed to meet at home once a week or I came here. But, it seems like Pravita is reluctant and I too have been busy lately." Naufan was clear on his two in-laws.

"Tuh, right. You must be busy, while if on weekends Pravita just lying in the room. He has no initiative to come to you. This kid is too much." Mamah commented on her son's temperament which she said was insensitive to the situation. One jewel landed on Pravita's left earlobe.

"Oh, Mah!" Pravita Protest. Instantly his ears became red because of the deadly jewels from his mother.

"A pair of husband and wife should complement each other's shortcomings. What a partner does not have, we as his partner are responsible for covering it up. Not even more open the ugliness of the household in a wide and indifferent between each other. That's not the concept." Mama continued to give encouragement to her son and daughter-in-law.

"Yes, how good is it now? You are adults, I hope you know the best path to take. Especially you, Pravita."

"...." - ".Silence moment.

"If I am, it's up to Pravita, Mah. He wants anything, Naufan will fill it while making him happy." The son-in-law's son-in-law said that made the hearts of in-laws flowery because he felt his son was glorified.

"Look, Pravita. Your husband has been so kind, why did you even give the flies a chance to alight? Don't leave him alone or you'll regret it later. What kind of wife are you? That kind of guy you said you didn't care about him? You said he was stingy?" Mamah hit Pravita's shoulder many times which made her very upset with her husband's good at licking.

"Sorry, Mah. What did you say?"

"Oh no-no, let's go." The mother-in-law was misbehaving, too many sentences came out of her mouth unconsciously.

"Is Pravita really saying I'm stingy Mah?" Ask his son-in-law.

"A, uh. Hm, yes. Pravita said that yesterday. He said, in the neighborhood of the house there is no public transportation, huh?"

"Oh right, but when I offered him a car he said he couldn't drive, Mah. And lazy to learn for now." Naufan. Lies, but there is a point too.

It's a lie that he said if he ever offered Pravita a car, it never was. However, there is a point also because Pravita actually can not drive. For this reason, he always uses taxis or public transportation.

Toels.

Mamah menonyor Pravita's head, "stupid! Stupid boy, you are. Why can you slander your own husband?"

"Indeed, this one's really mamah, very stubborn. Be patient as her husband."

"okay, mah. Fine. Keep on being proud of your favorite daughter-in-law. Let me be a sneer in his eyes. Let me lose my pride at the sight of your male–-in-law, Mah. Okay, fine. Why don't you guys just throw me in the fish pond so he can laugh with satisfaction?" Pravita said in her heart with a vexed vexation, like seeing an opponent laughing in her heart.

Inevitably, Pravita finally returns home with her husband. With a forced heart and very heavy to be in a car with a man he used to call 'a bitchy man'.

"Haha, 1-0. I seem to have succeeded in seizing the heart of the mother-in-law." Naufan's words are pumping his wife's heart.

Pravita had guessed that the man would laugh at her in the back.

"But how am I? Again, it's a pity if you don't go ahead." Pravita was singing her lips, she did not care about her fate which was becoming the laughingstock of her enemy.

"Why don't you ask for a ride with your girlfriend?" The advice Naufan gave was not a solution for Pravita.

"He can't be there for me every time, we have to be busy!" Pravita Sentak.

"Then what do you want?" Ask Naufan.

"Would you not take me tomorrow and so on?" Frankly, she asked her husband for help, although she was sure that one hundred percent of it was useless to ask the annoying man for help.

"No. I also have a busy life." That answer did not make Pravita surprised.

"It's hard to be me, God."

"It's been a risk." Naufan's Response. To Pravita, the man beside her never understood her heart. Never be aware of the difficulty.

"It's hard to talk to crazy people." Cibir Pravita who is tired and can only resign to the circumstances.
