LUTH'S LLAMAR
Spicy Tongue

Luth was standing on the porch of Hud's house, holding Emran. He stepped in just after Yesa had opened the door for him. 

“Eit, wait a minute!”  Yesa restrains by stretching her hands across the door, blocking Luth from passing through the door.  “What do you want?  Bring the Emran here again. Don't tell me to take care of this baby.”

Luth looked at Yesa pushyly.  “Can Ms Yesa be positive?  Don't get used to negative thinking.  Can quickly stroke.”

“Well, why did you come here to bring the baby?  your arrival here must have been just to trouble Mas Hud.  Ask for money, ask for help, ask for something.  I'm tired of hearing it.  Don't stress me out with your crazy business deh.”

“Stop talking!  Or I can hit you!  You are polite, I am polite.  Me and Mas Hud are brothers.  I naturally satirize.  Don't break the cord between us!” luth then stepped in.

Seeing Luth's anger, Yesa did not dwell.  He also walked in.

“Mas Hud!” call Luth.

Hud also popped out.  The man was wearing sleeping pajamas.  “Loh, what's up Lut?  These nights you're here, bring Emran again?  Where is lyn?”  

Luth placed Emran onto the sofa, his hands holding onto the body of the sleeping baby.  He looked at Hud.  He remembered the last few weeks Luth often stopped by Hud's house, he got a lot of input from Hud about the condition of his household.

“Luth, you are a man.  Then you are entitled entirely to a living.  Not because your wife is rich, and you are lived by her.  Take care of your pride!  The man whose life is financed by his wife is the same as the man whose self-esteem falls.” That's what Hud said the other day.

“I know that the obligation to make a living is only charged to men, women have no responsibility at all in that case,” Luth's responsibility at that time.

“Well, you know that. Don't burden Lyn to help you make a living, keep her, keep your pride.  The man must maintain self-esteem by not demeaning himself.  Eating wife's money is the same as humbling yourself because you consider yourself incapable.  It used to be so too.  Do not want to trouble Yesa as Mas's wife even though this Mas feels from a difficult person while Yesa from the circle is enough.  Look now, Mas managed to make the economy of Mas household for the better.  That's because Mas appreciate women.”  Hud stroked Luth's arm and smiled.

“I never charged Lyn in financial terms.  Lyn never helped my economy, either.  Not because he didn't want to, but the circumstances were compelling.  He was kicked out of the house and he has nothing now.  Oh yeah, he once financed mom's operation.  We should have paid for it, right?  But he did it.”  Luth.

Hud's facial expression changed slightly.  Looked minder.

Recalling that conversation, Luth let out a long sigh.  He looked at Hud, then said, “Begini Mas, I want to borrow Mas's housekeeper for a day.  Ahead of I get a new baby sitter for Emran.”

“What's Lyn why?  Does he mind taking care of Emran?  If he does object, why did he agree to take care of the baby?” sahut Yesa who had been watching Luth. he immediately nyerocos at length because he was not willing if his assistant was borrowed.  

“Lyn must split the time for this.  She's exhausted and not feeling well.”  Luth won't open up his household problems.  Better he say so.

Geez, can Yesa not say for a moment?  

“Ya already, about the maid, tomorrow I will send it to your home.  Tonight I can't because she's home too.  He did not stay the night,” said Hud diverted the conversation from the words of his wife who had been ketus.

“But remember Luth, you have to pay the maid's salary that day yes, I cut the fee for my maid and you pay the shortfall.  You see I have to work alone that day. I do not want to bother.”  Yesa continues to curse.

“Yesa, we'll just buy some food outside when Luth uses our maid service.  Let Luth borrow our maid for a day, you will not be preoccupied with homework,” Hud said softly.  Didn't want Luth to see the rigour of Yesa.

“Loh, are we not washing clothes?  Nyapu, mopping, and everything?  Who's cleaning the house?  I right?” connect Yesa.  “Yes I don't want the work of the maid even done with me.”

He did not want to, that before there was a maid, he was the one doing the housework.

“Ya already, later we will do the same for that business.  Just a day, Kasian Emran,” Hud said.

“Halah, ngerepotin continues.”  Yesa was getting upset.  His tongue is very sharp when he speaks.

Luth gave a smile, glad to see Yesa upset.  “Save your frustration first, Ma'am.  Want to be happy or not, I will still borrow Maak's maid.  Hud already allowed.” 

Yesa turned her face away, then left while nagging.  “Mas Hud, next time if you make a house that is a bit far from your family.  Your family is usually just a trouble.” 

“Udah, don't take heart,” whispered Hud after Yesa.  “

Luth puts his shoulders together no matter what.  

Tonight you take care of Emran first yes, tomorrow my new maid will come.,” Hud said.

“Ya already, I go first.” Luth passed away and took Emran.
