Lika Litu Maira's Wedding
chapter 9

while calming down rere maira continued to think with what she just heard, it was appropriate that now Denis could stay with her longer while the denis boss was a very chatty and punctual person.

if Denis no longer works there from where he gets the money every week...?

maira knew her in-laws were now sick and living with her mother Yuli.

yes, ma erni fell ill and had paralysis but until now maira has not been able to see her because she has not been allowed to go all the way by Bu Sekar.

but later on when rere entered the age of seven months new he could see the state of his in-laws, because at that time he and rere would move back to town B, B, and for now she is preparing all her including taking care of the moving letter and also making birth certificate rere.

of course Denis took care of it all, through one of Maira's brothers who happened to work in the sub-district where maira lived.

when maira was daydreaming denis went into the room and saw his daughter, maira who saw it was immediately used to ask.

"mas.." call maira.

"what's the matter...?" sahut denis without looking towards maira and instead continued to stare rere

"so I heard your conversation on the phone, is it true that you're not working in that office anymore...?" ask maira curious.

"yes, that's right"

"then where do you work now...?"

"in the old company, before we got married"

"but mas, not his word you the company is now no longer in town B and instead moved to town D....?" maira asked seakin astonished

"yes it did move, but it's like the branch is just a smaller place is also still in the place that used to be, only now it only supplies goods only" denis without looking at Maira.

"then you work in what part...? is it the same as it used to be...?" ask maira again

"mas work in the delivery section of goods to small shops and it is not every day mas do, mas will go when the store is contacted to ask for goods only, but it is not, anyway it's not good so there's a longer time to accompany you and rere here" Denis explained

maira must be satisfied with Denis' answer just now although in her heart there is still a strange feeling but maira knows if she continues this conversation then she and Denis will definitely fight, he and Denis will definitely fight, and it's impossible for maira to do much less considering they're living with maira's parents.

after the incident that night, Maira never asked again about denis work, after all while here denis always gave her shopping money, although Maira knew Denis only gave her forty percent of the money Denis had but she didn't matter at all, because from the beginning of marriage until now it is like that denis when it comes to money matters.

maira talks to Denis asking for money but denis' attitude shows that he doesn't like it.

"mas later I ask for more money yes." said maira when Denis was at his house.

"why...?"

"of course, for the rent of three cars alone is nine hundred thousand, then the gasoline in each car then from here we also have to cook a bit more so that later we get there the people who drive us can eat, he said, it is impossible to get there later we wait for mbak yuli to entertain our guests" said maira explained

"it's mbak yuli already bother taking care of mamah where maybe we re-troubles her again with things like this"

"yes, before we go we have to cook at home first so that we can entertain our guests."

"how many in total...?" ask denis

"i'm counting the total of all of them about one and a half million" maira replied

denis who heard that looked directly at Maira he did not expect the cost would be so great like that, not to mention he had to pay for the deed and letter of moving maira and now added this.

"great...?" ask denis wonder

"yes you just count mas, three cars are nine hundred thousand, then three hundred thousand gasoline money, the rest to buy vegetables and other ingredients to entertain them, we must have made some cake and also some cooking" explained maira

"do they have to come, why don't the three of us go, why do they all have to come even with the neighbors...?" ask Denis

"mas this is a tradition here, if we want to move the neighbors and relatives will take us to our new home later" obviously maira and denis also inevitably have to follow the tradition that he thinks is very ridiculous.

it does not feel the day of departure finally came too, it's true that maira's estimate that will accompany her will be many, even there are still some people who want to come but it is not fit.

maira and Denis went on a motorcycle while rere was with bu sekar and the others in the car, it was all because Maira had to tell her maternal grandfather who also wanted to take her grandchild.

coincidentally, the house of maira's grandfather was in the same city as Denis, after arriving at the house of the grandfather maira immediately took him by motorbike and waited on the side of the road, incidentally the grandfather's house was in the alley. Actually his alley was quite large and entered the car as well but to save time so they decided to ask the grandfather to wait in front only.

after waiting for about half an hour the maira family car troupe was finally seen, the car was riding by the bu sekar in the front row in followed by two other cars, grandpa immediately got into the same car as the new mom.

after making sure the grandfather had climbed into a new car they continued their journey which was only half an hour away. maira leads the way because this is the first time her family has come to the denis house, so they don't know the direction of the road.
