Kenzie went downstairs at exactly 7am, the time when everyone gathered at the dinner table for breakfast.
Abah, Umi, and Sasa had already occupied the dining table for breakfast but none of the people had touched the food. They are still waiting for the arrival of Kenzie and Azira who have not been seen since last night.
"Assynolajet. Morning everyone." Hello Kenzie to everyone.
But he did not sit down and chose to stand on the edge of the table with a faint smile on his lips. Abah and Umi answered her greeting while Sasa did not move his mouth in the least. Sasa was disappointed in his brother. Before this her brother had never made her parents wait at the dinner table and was always attentive to everyone, but since Azira entered this house her brother instantly changed a lot. In just two days Azira managed to monopolize her brother from everyone home. Huh, look at how perverted this foreign woman thinks she is.
"Abah and Umi have been waiting for the arrival of brother from earlier. If you don't come down, they won't all have breakfast." Sasa was in a bad mood.
Kenzie sees his parents and realizes that their breakfast is still untouched. He feels guilty. His heart warmed with the attention of his parents. Maybe both Abah and Umi are still reluctant to accept Azira, and because of this problem they become disappointed with Kenzie to the point of not wanting to talk as normal. But Kenzie knew, behind his parents' anger there was a heart that always worried him and he was very relieved for it.
"Change, Umi, don't wait for me anymore. You can have breakfast now while I'll have breakfast on top with Azira." He said to his parents.
Umi turned her face away, "The woman is very clever."
Obviously Umi was very angry because the son who had been waiting for in fact did not think about it at all and thought more about the foreign woman who came out of nowhere.
"Yes, because of him, my brother does not want to gather again with us. In addition, the dawn of the brother also did not go down to pray to the mosque follow Abah. Though usually the brother himself the most spirit ngajak Abah to the mosque. Kenzie, I told you that woman is not right. You just got married two days aja kak Kenzie has not gone to dawn prayers to the mosque, especially the days ahead again. I'm not sure Kenzie's sister is like she used to be." Cetus Sasa expressed his grievances.
His sister had never missed the dawn prayer to the mosque before and was usually always the first. But today was suddenly absent, inevitably Sasa thought badly and accused Azira of being the cause of her brother not leaving.
Kenzie shook his head helplessly and was not angry at his sister's accusations. However, his brother did not know what had happened to Azira.
Old Abah's eyes looked at the face of her son who was declining a lot from her and asked, "Then how is your wife now?"
Kenzie surprised. He did not expect Abah to recognize Azira as his son-in-law. Look, admitting Azira as his wife is the same as acknowledging Azira as the daughter-in-law in this house. Honestly, he never counted. He thought Abah was angry just like Umi, reluctant to acknowledge Azira as his son-in-law and needed a lot of time to relieve Abah's heart.
"Thank God, he's fine, Abah. His stomach is cramping but it will soon get better after resting all day." Kenzie replied courteously and warmly to his Abah.
Abah nodded lightly. His old eyes looked at his son with a gaze that was hard to explain but Kenzie was not at all backwards stared at in such a way by Abah.
"alright. Bring food upstairs. Take Azira breakfast to make her body feel better." Abah's instructions to his son.
If Abah had said it, then Umi and Sasa could not say anything even if they objected. Kenzie thanked him and went straight to the kitchen to get some food. While on the dining table, the atmosphere again felt empty and unpleasant.
"So, I don't like that woman. She is a woman who is not right. Said Safa's aunt, the woman was raised in a dirty place and was always in touch with those dirty things. Would Abah be willing to see Kenzie's sister with a woman like that?" Ask Sasa timidly.
Because of his words, Abah immediately lost his appetite even before he could touch the food on the table.
Getting up from the chair, Abah then said to Sasa before leaving, "Son, after breakfast meet Abah in the back garden to water the plants. Understood?"
Sasa's heart was pounding. His hands clenched in fear and at the same time were ashamed, "Yes, Abah."
Abah then walked away to the back garden after hearing his daughter's willingness.
