Marrying the Widow of the Neighbor
The Tragedy of Fried Rice

The Rania POV

Aghhh!! Where did Aji go?! All the nightclubs that we used to go to before I went to, but I didn't find any!! Even his friends don't know where he is at the moment. They haven't seen Aji in a month. Where are you, Ji?!

Aditya's right, this kid I'm carrying isn't his seed. But, how could I possibly admit that to my mother and sisters. It could fall my pride in front of the three of them, if I admit everything.

For two years Aditya and I have never had sex, even for a year we separated the bed. How could I possibly be pregnant with Aditya's child, right? But strangely enough, Aji's been wearing protective all the time we've been in contact, but why would I get pregnant with her?

Actually, there was also some benefit in getting pregnant. Mas Aditya can't divorce me right now. Gradually I am sure Aditya will return to love me as before. I know very well that Mas Adit loves me very much, the Princess is just a taste escape. There's no way Adit's love just turns away so quickly, I'm sure. The plan, from tomorrow I will grab the attention of Aditya again. You'll see later Put... Mother-in-law... Who is the most beloved woman in the world?!

POV Author

The aroma of fried rice instantly greeted Aditya's sense of smell as he passed the threshold to enter the house. With a face full of smiles, Aditya immediately stepped foot into the kitchen, planning to greet the Princess who was certainly preparing breakfast as usual.

"Good morning, say...."

Aditya's words stopped just like that, as well as his footsteps entering the kitchen.

"Good morning, Mom... Just sec... I'll have breakfast, yeah."

The woman who is cooking in the kitchen is not Princess, but Rania. With full work clothes protected by apron, Rania looks busy stirring the fried rice in the cauldron. Occasionally his body tilted to the right and to the left, avoiding the spark that was just a sound. His attitude shows that he is only pretending to cook, not actually cooking.

"Lho... Koq is lit la..."

"What the hell are you, Put! Husband wants to go to work instead of preparing breakfast, even continuing to sleep!! It's there!! I finished cooking the fried rice!! Not exactly a wife!" Rania interrupted the sentence that the Princess was about to say, making her mad sister look at her and look at Aditya in turn.

"But...."

"Sir."

The turn of Aditya who cut the Princess' sentence, Rania smiled triumphantly with her face still facing towards the hot cauldron. The aroma of fried rice that was originally fragrant, had already turned into a charred smell. But Rania doesn't realize it's her happy ranking.

"Please prepare Mas work clothes" said Aditya gave the order.

"But that's the rice...."

"Sir."

Putri did not continue his sentence, actually he just wanted to remind that the fried rice that Rania was stirring was charred, but Aditya interrupted his sentence. Be the Princess stepping out of the kitchen, trailing behind the steps of the husband.

"Got it!!"

Rania smiled proudly, but a moment later her wide smile instantly disappeared. The rice he stirred had already changed color to black and crusty.

"ARGHYAHH!! Wh-What happened?! Why is this so?!"

Rania panicked, she stirred up the contents of the cauldron quickly and roughly, so the grains of fried rice she stirred scattered out of the cauldron. When Rania realized that the fried rice she had stirred had been scorched, immediately turned off the gas stove, then stared at the state of fried rice left in the cauldron. Both of his eyes piled up to see the mess he had made himself.

"God!! What have I done?! How's this?!"

Aditya, Putri and Bu Sukma enjoy the rice that Aditya bought in front of his alley. Aditya, who had guessed the fate of the fried rice that had been stirred by Rania, took the initiative to buy three packs of rice sitting for him, the Princess and the mother. Currently, the three are enjoying the rice without making a sound, while refraining from laughing.

"Why don't you buy it for us too, Dit!! Peel is so much a son-in-law!!"

Bu Eli grumbled annoyed from earlier, his appetite disappeared in an instant upon seeing the appearance of fried rice that was in front of him. Even the twins who had not washed their faces could clearly see how terrible the appearance of fried rice was.

Actually, the Princess who has finished cooking fried rice, went to the clothes drying area for a while to dry her mukena and her prayer sarong cloth. As usual, he would do other things first while waiting for the fried rice he had already cooked to become slightly warm. It is only after the warm Princess will serve it. But this morning unlike the usual morning, Rania who usually just came out of the room at breakfast, suddenly came out after the Princess finished cooking fried rice. When Rania arrives at the kitchen, she sees the kitchen empty, coinciding with the greetings from Aditya who just returned from the mosque. At that time, Rania played her role as a wife who was preparing breakfast for her husband and family. He quickly restarted the stove that had been initially turned off by the Princess, then started stirring the fried rice in a pretty convincing style. Unfortunately, Rania's evil plan did not end smoothly.

"Mom!! Buy some rice!! The fried rice is scary!!" Sahut Salma with an expression of disgust stared at a fried rice dominated by crust and deep black.

"Yes!! You buy, gih!! The dit!! Give the money to Salma!!"

Ms. Eli gave the order to Aditya, making Aditya speed up the chewing motion of his food. Not stingy or no money, but Aditya wants to teach Rania and her family a little lesson.

"The... I had a meeting this morning, you went to the stall in a taxi, yeah."

Princess immediately nodded her head, she thought Aditya was indeed there was a meeting early in the morning. Aditya immediately got up and out of the dining table, the Princess stood up and came out of the dining table to deliver Aditya who was about to go to work.

"Dith!! Where's the money?!" Miss Eli yelling for Aditya.

"Take Rania, Mom. When else do mothers and sisters taste their sweat money?"

"No way to dong, Dit!! We are your responsibility, not Rania's!!"

Aditya immediately stopped his steps to hear the words of Elu, then faced the body to Eli. His face was taken very seriously this time.

"I'm lazy to talk about all this right now, Mom. Later tonight, we will discuss everything to the end. About my rights and duties as a husband, as well as the rights and duties of the two women who bear the status of my wife!"

Aditya stared at Eli's mother sharply while holding in fury. It seems like he has started to get uncomfortable with the presence of Miss Eli and Rania's two spoiled sisters.

"Just enjoy the breakfast made by the educated and dignified mother's son!! Poor that he got up early to get everything ready. Excuse me!!"

Aditya again continues his steps out of the house accompanied by the Princess, while Eli's mother is already speechless for fear of seeing the serious expression that Aditya shows to her. Bu Sukma got up from sitting down, then came out of the dining table carrying his old dinner plate, Princess and Aditya.

"Mom...."

Bu Eli turned his head and looked at Salma for a while, then turned to look at Rania.

"Love your sister the money to buy breakfast, Ran!! This is all because of you!! Wear everything cooking!! You obviously can't cook!! Hehhhhh!!"

Rania grabbed her briefcase and pulled out the donpet from inside the bag. After that, he pulled a piece of money twenty thousand, then gave it to Salwa.

"Now!! Don't forget to give back to Ma'am!!"

Bu Eli glared at the twenty thousand dollars that Rania handed to her sister.

"Nasi complete with a pack of ten thousand!! That is less!! You even got change!! Add more money!! You stingy!!"

Rania sneered angrily at the mother, twenty thousand dollars back put in the wallet, changed by a sheet of fifty thousand.

"Now!! Camphor...."

"No change!! Buy four packs of rice, buy more fried!! Hurry, Wa!!"

Ms. Eli immediately cut off Rania's sentence, making Rania become even more upset. Salma and Salwa got up from their seats and walked out of the house to buy rice sitting in front of the alley.

"That money is just a calculation!! It's worth Aditya getting mad at you, Ran!! Don't-don't what Aditya said all along is true, if the child you bear is not his child!! Huh?!"

Rania's face immediately turned deathly pale, both eyes glaring at the mother. Bu Sukma who just emerged from the kitchen immediately stopped his steps, he wanted to hear the confession of Rania. The princess who had just returned from the terrace also stopped her steps. Three pairs of eyes stared straight at Rania, making Rania even more frightened and nervous.
