Me Or Your Mother
AAI 65 - Hesti

AAI 65 - Hesti

Inside the room of Hesti's.

Galih, Gita, and Melinda seem to be silent to each other. None of them wanted to start a conversation.

'What should I do? If I get out of here, I'll be labeled a selfless daughter-in-law for leaving when her in-laws get sick. But what if I stay here? What if Mom wakes up and yells at me? Oh, dearGod. Help me, ' Melinda said in her heart. He sits to the left of the Gita while Galih is to his right.

'Why do I feel so uncomfortable here?' the inner Gita is comfortable with her position. He glanced at his right and left which were both silent to each other.

And Galih? He chose to be busy with his work. He deliberately brought his laptop because he wanted to finish his work while waiting for his mother.

Melinda's face looked very agitated. Many times he glanced at the wall clock to see how long he had been in the spacious room that felt so narrow. Both of his palms were sweating, even though the room temperature was cold.

"Em, Mum? I'll go home first, yeah. I-I feel a little tired" Melinda said breaking the silence. Gita looked over, she just remembered that her sister-in-law was pregnant.

"Is Mama okay? Do I need to call a doctor?" Ask Gita. Although he does not like Melinda, but he cares about the fetus in the womb. And Galih? The man looked indifferent and remained focused on his laptop screen.

"No, no need Git. I just want to rest." Melinda's Subjection. He just wanted to be unwilling until he saw himself. But alas, his wishful thinking that wanted to go from there was not realized because Nesti showed his consciousness.

Eugh

The old woman's shrill voice interrupted the three people who were there. Galih, Gita, and Melinda show different facial reactions. Galih showed her flat face, Gita with her worried face, while Melinda showed her frightened face.

'Oh, I'm dead.'

His eyes looked blurry. Many times he blinked his eyes trying to see clearly what was around him. Until the moment his gaze stopped on the figure of Melinda, the woman immediately went up black.

"HEY, YOU. DAMN LAKNAT WOMEN, WHAT ARE YOU FOR IN THE EARLY HOURS, HUH? squealed Hesti with his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to get out of place. He was very angry to see the existence of Melinda who was hated so much. Recalling how the betrayal done by Melinda made the blood of Hesti boil.

Gita and Melinda jumped to hear the screams from Hesti. Moreover, Melina, her heart seemed to stop beating when she saw the wrathful face of the mother-in-law at this time. His nose shriveled, it felt like death got that treatment from Galih's mother. And Galih? The man scrunched his forehead, he felt curious about the situation that was currently happening before his own eyes.

"The woman, Gita. The woman your sister married was not a good woman. I saw with my own eyes how he was playing crazy with my cousin's sister." Nesti's instantaneous snapping made Gita close her mouth in surprise. She did not expect Melinda to do that to her family. Gita averted her eyes, she looked at Melinda's face as if asking for an explanation from her.

"Cousin brother? Mas Dimas's? W-Is that right, Ma'am?" Tanya Gita turned to Melinda. While Galih who was behind him was seen smiling thinly even if only at a glance.

'Finally, I know for myself how cheap the woman is. Even his self-esteem is cheaper than the price of a pair of mely sandals on the market. It used to be when I showed pictures of him with other men that my mother always denied it. That's the truth, Mom. Women who are great mothers during this time are no more valuable than a lump of garbage on the banks of the river brantas.' said Galih in his heart. He felt a little relieved because finally the rottenness of Melinda unfolded without her acting. Although the truth was revealed later, at least his mother was now able to make her eyes wide see what was behind Melinda's beautiful face.

"N-no, Mother. That's not true, I don't trust you. I refused, Dimas forced me to serve naf su be jatnya. Trust me, Mommy." Pinta Melinda with tears. He even knelt in front of the bed of Hesti, forgetting the pride he had always held and glorified.

Hearing the words from Melinda instantly made Hesti even more black. Both of his hands clenched tightly, holding himself back from getting off the bed and beating Melinda. After all, the woman was pregnant.

"Basic, cheap lady. Your mouth says no, but both my eyes see clearly how you enjoy your game. You believe in your mother, don't you, Galih? For God's sake, I'm not lying to you," by raising her fingers up, Hesti spoke so she could make her son believe. He was increasingly furious when Galih did not give his answer.the man was silent a thousand languages, he had not cared about everything since his separation with his wife.

"If you're okay, I'll go first. I do a lot of work in the office" Galih said, closing the laptop and putting it in his briefcase. The three women who were there were astonished by Galih's attitude.

The man is now a different person than before. The cave became cold and untouched by other women. There was no smile or warmth shown by him to anyone but his sister. If together with Gita, Galih can still be nice and warm even though it still seems a little cold.

"Direction? What do you mean? You don't care about your mother, do you?'' question Hesti did not accept being ignored by his own son. Galih's steps stopped, she turned to look at her mother again.

"Are you not aware, who made Galih become like this hm? This is the result of all my mother's deeds to me and Beautiful." replied Galih. Hesti fell silent, there was a bit of disappointment in him for having chosen the wrong woman to be Galih's wife. He turned his head towards Melinda, looking at her stomach which was now big made Nesti think of something.

''Enough, Galih. Don't bring the woman's name here. And for you, Melinda. I became sure that the child in your womb was not the son of Galih" Hesti accused. Given Melinda's immoral behavior made Hesti suspicious. Surely not only one person slept with Melinda.

While Melinda was made to not wart. her body trembled in fear because of Hesti who began to suspect her. He was confused to find a reason to make Nesti can trust him again.

"No, Ma. This is Mas Galih's son. I could have sworn, this is Mas Galih's son Melinda shouted asking for everyone's trust. He did not want to be divorced by Galih because he loved her very much.
