The morning after the morning prayer, Marisa heads to the kitchen to cook. Yesterday's rice was still a lot of leftovers, Marisa decided to fry the rest of the rice. Not only because it is practical, but also unfortunately if it is wasted.
After cooking the fried rice, Marisa returned to her room, the husband who was still teaching was seen still solemn with his reading. Marisa started to take a bath removing the scent of oil stuck to her body.
After finishing the bath, he decorated as usual when he went to the office. Her husband is now in the bathroom.
Sayup-sayup heard the voice of a vegetable maker who shouted his wares. Marisa rushed down, having prepared clothes for her husband. He walked quickly out of the house. And the greengrocer stopped right in front of the fence when Marisa called him.
"Please neng, the vegetables are still fresh." Said the vegetable seller when he saw Marisa who was still blocked by the gate.
"I want chili dong sir, half a kilo, one-quarter kilo red onion, one-quarter kilo garlic too." Marisa mentioned the ingredients she had not gotten from the supermarket at that time.
"What else is it?" The vegetable seller put Marisa's groceries into a white crackle bag.
"Em, spinach is 1kat deh sir, same kale 1kat as well. How many chickens?"
"Eh, it's pretty shopping." Greet the mothers who yesterday the day after their house.
"Eh, yes ma'am, it just so happens to cook tomorrow there are no ingredients." Answer Marisa.
"Oh yeah acquaintance first, I Esti, my house is different from one house just over there." Said the mother pointing south, because their house was facing east.
"Oh, yes, I am Marisa's wife mas Elvan." They also shake hands with each other.
"Well thirty neng, would be about a kilo or two kilos." Said the vegetable seller.
"Sekilo aja sir."
"Work?" Tanya Bu Esti noticed Marisa's appearance which was like an office employee in general.
"Yes, I work. Miss Esti's been living here a long time?"
"Have Neng, what else?" Ask the vegetable seller.
"If I have lived here for two years. Longer Mas Ganteng actually, but he's rarely here." Said Bu Esti.
"Oh Yes." Marisa then asked the vegetable seller. "How much is everything?"
"The total is sixty-five thousand." The vegetable seller said after counting all Marisa's shopping with her mobile calculator.
"Well, there's a new neighbor." Two mothers came to them.
Marisa handed over a hundred thousand bills to the vegetable seller.
"Yes, this is Mas Ganteng's wife at our complex." Miss Esti answered. While Marisa just smiled kindly.
"Big Mas? Elvan's the one who lives here?" A fatter mother pointed to the house of Elvan and Marisa.
"Yes. A complex must be on the disappointed." Replied Miss Esti with confidence.
"Not disappointed anymore, heartbroken as complex as this name." This time the slimmer young lady who said.
"What's wrong?" Some of the new mothers also gossiped.
"The handsome man has a wife." Said the fatter mother earlier, her voice slightly hoarse as if crying out of disappointment.
"What's? Really?" One of the newly arrived mothers was shocked and in disbelief. "So from yesterday I saw the top light on it because Mas Ganteng nginep? Same wife?"
The fat mother and the slender-tailed woman nodded together.
Then they hugged, as if they had lost their precious possessions simultaneously.
"Yes, this beautiful Marisa is Mas Elvan's wife." Bu Esti was embracing Marisa's shoulder with one hand. As if showing off new items to the mothers of the complex. It makes them more hysterical.
"Udah, you are nangisin other men, do not remember the husband at home. So, no shopping?" Asked the vegetable seller upset, he then handed Marisa the change.
"I don't have a husband, so is it okay to nangisin other men?"
"Yes, I am also not married, even left married to Mas Ganteng."
Seeing a slightly strange situation in his opinion, Marisa also said goodbye to enter the house. Leaving behind mothers who were bemoaning their marriage to Elvan.
"Mom-mom, excuse me, let's miss Esti." Marisa opened the gate.
"Yes, Marisa, let them be this better." Answer Bu Esti.
Marisa went into the house and went to the kitchen to store her groceries.
Her husband was sitting quietly at the table eating, but still holding his phone. He hasn't eaten yet.
"Mas, the complex mothers are again on the hysterical outside." Marisa said in front of her husband.
"Why?" Elvan, who was busy with his cell phone, looked at his wife in surprise.
"They were heartbroken, he said." Marisa put the cut chicken she bought into the freezer.
"But why heart, dear? Because you're married to me?" Elvan guessed the answer himself, because indeed the mothers of the complex were often frankly admiring good looks and said that he was the idol of their housing complex.
"Don't you know?" Marisa is now washing the vegetables she bought. He threw away the root of the vegetable. Then dry it and put it in the fridge.
"Yes nebak anyway. They're funny, honey. What did you cook?"
"Today I cooked fried rice mas, sorry instead of wasting I cooked the rice." Marisa took a plate and poured rice into her husband's plate.
"Dear, thank you for bothering me." He said he ate his first feed. After swallowing the whole food. He took another spoonful of rice. This time both of his hands were raised high displaying his two pointed thumbs.
"Mas Elvan says it's always excessive, whether I'm a princess of the kingdom, cook it is said to be troublesome." This time Marisa was about to take the plate for herself, but her husband's left hand prevented her from moving.
"Why, I want to eat too. Laper." Marisa is about to take off her husband's hand.
"Here's the bribe. Ak.." Elvan's hand had placed a spoonful of fried rice in front of Marisa's mouth.
Marisa opened her mouth and chewed on the fried rice of Elvan's mouth.
"You're not a royal princess, but you're my royal queen." Elvan feeds the rice into his own mouth.
"Absolutely Elvan king?"
"Yes, I am the king, this is my palace, you are the queen. Daj soon God will create a princess or prince here." Elvan rubbed his wife's stomach.
They had breakfast interspersed with sweet chatter. Not a bit to discuss dinner later which will either be fun or just stressful.
When Marisa opened the garage door, she saw mothers still gathered in front of the fence. He also approached the mothers of the complex, each of which had been holding a bag of grocery crackles.
"Mom are still here?" Ask Marisa who is now opening the gate of her house.
"Yes, we wait for Mas Ganteng, want to ask directly, he really has to leave us all." Answer the blue-clad mothers.
"Mas Elvan isn't going anywhere, she's going to stay here with me." Marisa said
"Not moved, but married." Answer the fat mom.
They're crying. Marisa is getting weird with her neighbors.
Then Elvan got out on his motorbike and stopped at the gate.
"The Bull." Shouted them as Elvan's bike stopped.
"For mothers. How are you doing? Sorry to be born and be inward." Elvan, who had not yet put on his helmet, smiled at the mothers who were waiting for him.
"No, my smile melts. I don't want the handsome to be private. The handsome belongs to the complex." Said the mother in yellow.
Elvan only chuckled, it was common for him to hear the absurd babbling of mothers.
"Sir, we can still shop here often. Look at the handsome guy every day. We're still in shock." Said the fat mom.
Marisa just smiled. What is this, like her husband is an artist only her fans have.
"Where's honey?" Elvan rolled his eyes, provoking.
"As for mothers, just don't be weird." Marisa relented.
"Thank you beautiful, we promise, if outside the house, Mas Ganteng belongs to the Marisa as well as the complex, but if in the house, Mas ganteng tetep belongs to Marisa's mother really." Said the fat mom. It seems like the mother is their leader.
"We go first, mothers, afraid of being late." Elvan pushed his bike out the fence. While Marisa closed the gate and locked it.
"Yes, watch out Mas Ganteng."
Marisa got on the bike. And they both left the mothers of the complex still standing in front of their houses.
****
The first day of work after his Eid holiday, Elvan drove Marisa with his motorcycle. He also had to go to the shop to work.
After saying goodbye to her husband, Marisa enters the office building. He met with several employees who had gathered, shook hands to congratulate Lebaran and apologize to each other.
"Hi secretary Dirut." A man she knew named Kevin.
"Hi, Mr. Kevin, congratulations Lebaran, I'm sorry to be born and to be inward." Marisa shook Kevin's hand.
"Yes, equally. Congratulations to you, too." Said Kevin.
"Thank you sir."
"Alvero just returned, afternoon he said nyampek." Kevin said, and they walked to the elevator.
"Yes, Mr. Alvero has confirmed to me sir."
They arrived in front of the elevator.
"Eh, Mr. Kevin. Marisa, Minal aidzin walfaidin yes Ris." Said a female employee who was waiting in front of the elevator.
"Minal aidzin walfaidin also Sha. Sorry inner birth." Said Risa after they splashed cipiki ria.
"Goodbye to Sasha. Sorry for being born." Said Kevin.
"Yes, thank you sir. Sorry inner birth too." Sasha smiled at Kevin. "Eh, who was your anter? I saw you salim to the guy who brought the bike." Sasha said laughing because recently he caught Risa delivered work by men.
"Ohh, that's."
Ting..
Elevator door opens.
"Who are you taking?" Kevin is also curious. Because Kevin knows if Alvero his best friend likes Marisa, and surely this can be important info for his best friend.
"That's... Uhmm..."
"Boyfriend???" Sasha cut off Marisa's words.
Marisa just smiles, she remembers what her husband told her not to let Alvero know, so she doesn't correct Sasha's guess.
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
Now it's Kevin's turn to urge him, making Marisa look like a dead flea.
Ting..
The elevator is open.
"I'm first." Sasha works in a two-story room under Marisa and Kevin.
Now in that elevator there's only Kevin and Marisa.
"Marisa, do you have a boyfriend?" Ask Kevin again.
"Emm, maybe tomorrow Mr. Kevin can know the answer." Marisa did not want to be honest.
"Tomorrow?? Do you want to announce your girlfriend when it is halal?" Kevin was not satisfied with the answer Marisa gave.
"Sir, we'll double-check the meeting file later that afternoon, Mr. Alvero said it must be perfect loh." Marisa's trying to shift the conversation.
Ting
The elevator door opened again. Now they have reached the top floor where they work.
And sure enough, Kevin who is a professional was directly discussing the files that Marisa said.
