"What is the need, sir, for embassy people to come here?" ask Aisyah.
"To be clear, let them answer," replied Mr. Lurah, then let the two men dressed neatly to say the purpose of their arrival.
"Pardon us in advance if our arrival is very surprising" said the woman who claimed to be from the embassy. "We came here to bring you back to your country."
"What!" squeak all the wives of Jiwo who were there. "Go back to our country?" ask Adiba.
"Yes, we were sent from the embassy to pick you up and drive you home to your country" now it was the man's guest who spoke. "Before introducing, we were employees at your embassy, I'm Ridwan's administrative department and this is Anita, just like I'm in administration too."
All the wives seemed to nod, but they fell silent with thoughts of wandering where. Of course, this news is shocking. Of course they are not ready to go home so soon. Here they are enjoying a life full of happiness and suddenly got news of their return. Their hearts were immediately broken.
"Where? Do you seem to be unhappy with this news?" asked Mr. Rt when he saw the face of wife Jiwo looks agitated.
"Not happy, sir. This was very surprising to us," Aisyah replied as she forced herself to smile. "this news is so sudden that we feel shocked, sir."
Mr. Lurah even chuckled and asked, "It seems like you are already at home living here huh?"
"Yes, sir," Anum answered representing all of Jiwo's wives who were forced to smile. "It's too comfortable."
Mr. Lurah then turned to the person who claimed to be named Ridwan and Anita, then he said, "Mending Father and Mother will be here again after their husband returns home. There's someone in charge of them anyway."
Ridwan and Anita had a wrinkled forehead and they looked at each other for a moment. "But they must be immediately repatriated, sir. Pity the other refugees who are waiting" replied Ridwan.
"When did it go?Where do you keep gathering?" mr. Rt's question made Ridwan gasp, then he glanced at Anita.
"Let off in about a week, sir," Anita replied calmly until Ridwan felt saved.
"Yes there is still time then" said Mr. Rt. "For you to meet their husbands, mending later in the afternoon you just come here. Usually their husband when the afternoon is home."
"Alright, later in the afternoon we will try to come again here," Anita replied kindly.
"How's this? Are we going home so soon?" alifa said with a very troubled feeling.
"Yes, to be honest I'm not ready, I don't want to be away from Mister" Anum said with eyes that began to look glassy.
"Me too, I'm not ready to be divorced by Mister," Arin said.
Jiwo's other wife was silent. The content of their hearts was exactly the same as that of Alifa, Anum and Arin. All are not ready to part with one man who has filled their hearts and made them happy despite having to share a husband.
"Yes, Adiba and Alana, mending you are ready to go to the market, it's almost twelve, then I ready for lunch Mister," said Aisyah break their concerns.
At that moment, my mother and three other daughters-in-law had just returned home. They were welcomed by the house. Mother sat on a chair near the dining table and chatted for a moment with her daughter-in-law while unwinding. After that Mom chose to go into the room, while the other three helpers gathered in the middle room.
"Where was that? You guys didn't come by the new stall?" ask Anum.
"Almost," answered Arum briefly.
"Rame no?" ask Anum again.
"Yes not too much, but mending someone bought," Anum replied again. "But we have to be careful."
"Wary? Wary why?" ask Aifa.
"So me and Aluna saw the leader of the man who kidnapped us?"
"What!"
