Married Berondong Saleh
Chapter 28

Delmira just kept quiet, to be honest at the moment she had no interest in talking about the matter. The present procession of death, reminiscent of a time when he was in the position of losing all his family.

"You didn't forget that, did you, Del?" look at Meilin because Delmira had not said her words.

Delmira nodded slowly.

Meilin embraced Delmira to sit in one corner of the living room.

"I know Del, your face looks sad because it remembers your family who died" Meilin said in a sad tone.

Delmira pulled the corner of her lips, revealing that she was fine.

"How strongly you hide your sadness, still my eyes can see it Del," Meilin continued.

"Does that look like Mei?"

Meilin nodded.

"Why do you know, I'm sad. Sad to remember my family that is gone. I'd rather stay in my room and just get out because Marsya, Silvia, and Yasmin are coming. This kind of atmosphere reminds me of May" Delmira said.

Meilin stroked Delmira's shoulder so that her friend could face everything.

"That's why I'm not willing if you just keep quiet without replying to what the old man has done to you. As a result of his negligence, he caused you to become an orphan, become a widow, and lose your cute child" Meilin said. Delmira only fell silent listening to what Meilin said.

His hand was now moving sweeping away the tears that were welling up in the eye pelupuk.

Ummi Aisyah who was about to approach Delmira immediately stopped her steps staring at her daughter-in-law and her best friend was seen talking seriously. Especially looking at Delmira with a face that is so sad that her eyes are clearly visible due to tear fluid.

'Why are you son? You look so sad when you're not close to Fatah? Do you remember your family that is gone?' aisyah's inner monologue was full of questions.

He turned his body and walked away from Delmira and Meilin.

"Have not fallen into sorrow" said Meilin to appease Delmira.

"You must be strong! Your family is not yet calm in nature there because the family of old man Fatah is still good to enjoy this worldly!"

"I guess_"

"Slowly make them feel the torment they must endure!" meilin's cheek, "and I see, you've done well in that role" Meilin continued.

"You mean?" tanya Delmira didn't understand.

"See the closeness between you and your husband. It seems like everything is going well."

"What closeness do you mean?"

"Geez Del, do I need to be clear one by one?!" pissed Meilin.

Delmira pulled the corner of her lips forming a small smile.

'Close to Zaidan? What so? Am I close to him?' delmira asked without an answer.

"Remember Del! Don't get the baper. You just need a way for him to love you, then throw him as hard as you can?" meilin reminded me of what she had said.

"I go first" Meilin said.

...****************...

A week has passed. Deep sadness cannot be easily lost. However, not for Aisyah, she had to remain steadfast for herself, her son and daughter-in-law. Of course, the most important thing for her dead husband. Giving up her husband's departure is the thing she must do, only prayer that Aisha must always send as a form of love that is still left in other nature.

Aisyah wiped her tears, when the fried rice she made was ripe, her hand moved to put the rice into the container.

The shadow of her late husband, suddenly flashed.

"Your favorite fried rice Bah," said Aisyah.

Surah fatikha he chanted very softly. That was all Aisyah could do when remembering her late husband.

"Ummi," call Zaidan making Aisyah aghast.

"Astaghfirullah haladhim, Zaidan you surprised Ummi loh," said Aisyah.

"Sorry Ummi" replied Zaidan.

"Fried rice Mi?" rhetorical Zaidan. "It looks good" cried Zaidan.

"Call your wife, have breakfast together" pinta Aisyah.

"Ready Ummi!" sahut Zaidan then stepped into his room.

"You are beautiful, called Ummi for breakfast together," said Zaidan saw Delmira was neat with work clothes.

"Hmmm" said Delmira.

Delmira's eyes glanced at Zaidan, "You're not going to the office?"

"I didn't go to the office but to another place because there was an appointment with a partner."

"Dear, you're so pretty, '" said Aisyah when Delmira appeared.

Delmira just smiled in response.

"Breakfast together, Ummi make a special fried rice," Aisyah exclaimed with enthusiasm.

"Fried rice?" delmira asked with a face that was instantly different.

The look on Aisyah's face that had been filled with smiles and enthusiasm had now turned sour at Delmira's reaction.

"Oh, you don't like fried rice?" the Lontar behind Aisyah.

"Sa.. really like Ummi," Delmira replied.

"O Allah, dear, Ummi, why do you think so" Aisha said with relief.

"Sit down" pinta Aisyah.

"Yes Allah Nak Zaidan also sat down, that's next to your wife," Aisha's scolding saw Zaidan standing only once.

"I think Ummi forgot that here there is also a handsome son of Ummi," said Zaidan as well as a form of protest to the Ummi because it is like forgetting his son because there is a son-in-law.

"Ih, you are jealous Ummi is more concerned with Delmira," said Aisyah.

"Obviously I'm jealous" Zaidan replied with a smile and Aisyah returned the smile with a laugh of happiness.

Zaidan is said to be a cold person, indifferent but if it is with ummi Aisyah and Abah Fatah the predicate seems to come off immediately.

"For you, Ummi's daughter forgot Ummi to get her fried rice" joked Aisyah and then took the fried rice to Delmira's plate.

"Ummi, let me be alone" protested Delmira.

"Today Ummi wants to get fried rice for Ummi's children" Aisyah replied.

"Have this been enough?" aisyah asked after one and a half centongs were already on Delmira's plate.

"Enough Ummi" replied Delmira.

"I am a lot of Ummi" said Zaidan when Aisyah's hand had brought rice for him.

"Review if not spent," Aisyah said after filling Zaidan's plate.

"God willing, Ummi" replied Zaidan, putting down the plate that Aisha had thrust.

"Pray first" protested Zaidan and Aisyah together when Delmira would put fried rice in her mouth.

Sontak Delmira lowered the ladle filled Masi fry onto the plate.

Zaidan led the prayer, after which they ate the fried rice with a gluttony. However, what was not finished, Delmira added several times the fried rice on a large plate until the plate was no longer fried rice.

During the breakfast conversation turned into a strange taste, seeing Delmira eating the rest of the fried rice on a large plate unnaturally.

"Fried rice is so delicious? It's a pity that it's not over" said Delmira seeing Aisyah and Zaidan looking at her with a strange look.

"I left first Ummi," said Delmira after clean eating fried rice.

"Be careful dear," replied Aisyah.

"Assalamualaikum," said Aisyah, as a form of reminding Delmira every will go should give greetings first.

Delmira silently did not respond to the greetings from Aisyah, her feet stepping quickly.

Aisyah looked at Zaidan gesturing for Zaidan to follow Delmira's steps because from her mimicry something was wrong from Delmira's attitude.

"I delivered" Zaidan said, demanding Delmira move the door to the passenger door.

Delmira simply complied, she then sat in the driver's seat. Somehow he was not empowered to refuse a unilateral request from Zaidan.

Halfway through, Zaidan who had occasionally glanced at Delmira who just silently looked out the window now ventured to open his voice.

"Share it if it can calm you down" Zaidan said.

"Fried rice is good, isn't it Zaid?"

"Yes, that's one of my favorite foods."

"It was also one of my husband's favorite foods" Delmira said in a trembling voice and began to rumble.

"Oh... So does that remind you of your husband?"

Delmira fell silent, she couldn't possibly tell the tragedy of a fried rice breakfast with her husband.

Raffat loves fried rice. It just so happened that Delmira hadn't cooked it in a long time. In the morning Delmira cooked the meal. What is the reaction of Raffat? Not happy even angry to see the fried rice on the dining table, he threw the rice on the floor because it was so upset. Strange things also happened to Raffat he immediately vomited because he smelled the aroma of fried rice.

The incident was only realized by Delmira after connecting with a message that entered her husband's cellphone. Raffat's affair asked to be delivered to the obstetrician. Delmira was able to conclude that Raffat had couvade syndrome. Where men experience nausea like pregnant people because the woman was pregnant in the early trimester.
