Salimah walked in a daze along with Rino in her arms.
The sweat has wetted the face of the toddler because the weather is still hot.
"Mah Ino aus," he whined.
"Mafin mamah dear," said Salimah who forgot to ask the state of his son because he was busy thinking about their lives in the future.
She who has always been just a housewife is clearly confused what to do to support her child later.
Salimah and Rino stop at a roadside shop to rest their feet.
Salimah bought mineral water and some snacks for her son.
"Where's Daddy Bun? Why don't we go home? Ino cape Mother," he whined.
Salimah could only endure the tightness of hearing the request of the son.
There was suddenly the sound of someone calling his name.
"Relieve!" shrieked a shrill voice due to its existence which was still a bit far away.
Salimah looked for the source of the voice. He stood up when he saw his old friend.
"Triya?" his reply.
The woman who was called his name then approached and immediately embraced the shabby body of Salimah.
"O Allah Sal, long time no see, how are you?" hello Triya haru.
With a stiff smile Salimah answered her best friend's question, "Okay, how are you? How many kids do you have?"
The question of Salimah actually makes the face of Triya ayu become sad. The same age of marriage with Salimah I has not been in the gift of children.
"I'm sorry if my question hurt you" said Salimah, who knew her question might hurt her best friend.
Triya himself then saw the appearance of Salimah as well as a suitcase that was not far from the woman.
"Where are you going Sal?" triya asked as she pointed at Salimah's suitcase using her chin.
"I ..." Salimah was confused as to what to answer. She was ashamed to tell her disgrace.
Long friends with Salimah since first school to high school makes Triya little know the nature of the woman.
"Come with me, looks like we've got a lot to talk about!" take Triya half forcefully.
Triya then returned to where the husband and his car was parked.
Before long a car stopped in front of Salimah and Rino.
"Know Sal my husband his name is General. This general's origin," he said with a laugh.
Salimah also laughed at the husband and wife's joke.
"To my house Sal? I'm sure something bad happened to you." As if knowing the state of Salimah, without waiting for Salimah's answer, Triya chose to take the friend to his home.
An hour away, they finally arrived, even Rino was asleep in the car.
"I guess you live in bogor Yeah, it turns out here?" wonder Salimah.
"My husband's on the move duty Yes. Come on in, sleep your son, pity he looks so tired!" bring Triya.
Salimah looked at the amazement of her high school best friend's residence. The minimalist house looks more modern in it.
Seen how the arrangement of furniture that looks aestethic.
Triya invites Salimah and Rino to the guest room, while the General has entered their main room to rest.
"Sorry Sal, I was wondering why you were there with your son. Are you going somewhere?" ask Triya curiously.
Salimah suddenly sobbed, inevitably she had to explain her condition to Triya, because surely her best friend needed an explanation.
If he had the money he would definitely refuse Triya's invitation to come to his house. Salima was in an urgent situation.
"I got kicked out Yeah, I'm sorry if it's a hassle. Can I stay one night stuff here huh? I promise you I'll get out of here tomorrow" he asked.
Although he holds the money given by Tuti and his family. But Salimah did not dare to open. Because he was still in a daze earlier.
"Oh my goodness, I can get Sal. If you can figure out why you've been kicked out of Sal?"
Salimah looked down upon hearing Triya's question. He felt a dilemma, whether to tell clearly or not.
"Look, who knows if I can help" Triya forced.
The woman did not see the reluctance of Salimah and still forced the mother of one child to keep telling her the problem.
Salimah had to tell him all the problems.
"Yes, my goodness, so you don't know your husband at all?"
Salimah. Triya who feels compassion can only say the word patiently to her best friend.
"My life is just as hard as Sal's, too" Triya said suddenly.
Because I felt like I had heard his life story. Now it is Salimah's turn to listen to Triya's life story.
"You know, we've been married for almost five years, I'm not pregnant. The problem is with me, but is it my fault?"
Triya suddenly cried, the woman also felt depressed with all the gossip from her extended family and her husband's family.
"Patience Yes, the child is absolutely God's will, we cannot force. I'm sure they'll soon get bored themselves too" replied Salimah.
Hearing Salimah's words came up with an idea in Triya's mind. He feels he has hope. Maybe all his fear will be gone.
