Chapter 23
After school, Azizah wanted to make fruit jelly according to the wishes of Aunt Rose and Oliv. They really like gelatin which is given a lot of fresh fruits. It turns out that white sugar has run out because this week often makes processed foods that use white sugar as a mixture of flavors.
"Mbak Rela, I want to go to the minimarket near the house. Is there anything to buy, let me buy some sugar?" azizah asked as she entered into Rela's room.
"none. This food is also a lot" Rela said, pointing to the large number of parcels above the nightstand and on the floor.
"Well, I'll go first" said Azizah, then she saw her mother-in-law sitting in the corner of the room.
"What would you buy?" ask Azizah politely.
"No need" replied Mama Fatonah.
Azizah also went on foot because the distance is not up to 200 meters from the house.
"Azizah, where are you going?" ask Aunt Rose who just came out of her bedroom.
"Go to minimarket. Does Auntie want to buy anything?" ask Azizah back.
"Then please buy full cream milk that is low in fat. Red wine is big, not small. Ah, yes don't forget to buy me a pad with wings," Aunt Rose replied, then went to the living room to watch television.
Did Aunt Rose tell that to give you the money? The answer is no. He likes to tell Azizah or Rela to buy this and never give money. Though Irwansyah also every month gives monthly money for him.
Azizah chose the items she needed to make the gelatin and order Aunt Rose. Then, he also queued at the cashier.
"Eh, isn't he the actor, is he?" A woman dressed in red asked her friend.
"Yes. She wears a hijab, but her behavior is not commendable" replied the woman wearing black.
"Hey, you know not if a good woman would disturb someone else's household." This time a yellow woman spoke.
"Eh, Mr. Irwansyah, that's a lot of money. So, I'm sure you'll be his mistress. Besides, he's handsome and still young too" said the woman in black.
"Yes, and he said, they often secretly go together without the first wife" whispered the woman in yellow.
"Yes, surely the husband also prefers the young, fresh, and exciting. I see, the clothes are mostly sexy clothes that are often worn by the nation's unifying film players," said the woman in black again.
"Hey reasonable dong, the husband is more inclined to a young wife. And it's mostly like that" the woman in red responded.
"The man was polygamous because he obeyed Eve napsu. The Sunna of the Apostle was made a pretext by them. They carry religion with them when they marry a second wife ... third .. or fourth. But, in practice," the woman in black shook her head as she said, "they can't be fair. There's gotta be one who's gonna get hurt."
"Well, if you want to marry a widower rich old grandfather. No need to wait for long, he's into the dead hunt," said the woman in red. He and his friends laughed out loud.
Azizah felt her chest tightness, holding back the pain in her heart because it had become a material blessing mothers who she knew were still a complex with her husband's house. In his heart he continued to beristighfar so as not to get out of control by turning to curse those who had slandered him.
'O Allah, You Know what has happened to us. Only to you ask for protection from the evil of my nafs, ' the inner Azizah.
"But, pity also, yes, same his first wife went to hospital. Because her husband was indehoy with his young wife and ignored her who was lying seriously ill," said the woman in black.
The women had already finished shopping and paid for their groceries. However, instead of going out of the minimarket, they were even cool toothed near Azizah.
After finishing shopping, Azizah rushed home. On the way she could not hold back her tears anymore. She cried and covered her face with the tip of her hijab.

Irwansyah went to the store around 08:00:00 a.m. Then, lunch time will come home to eat with his family. After that we will go back to the store and go home in Ashar time.
He also returned home before the Zuhur prayer time. He wanted to congregate at the mosque near his home. When he came home, Azizah was walking while covering her face with one hand and the other hand carrying a scraped bag.
"That's Azizah? He ran out of the minimarket apparently," muttered Irwansyah.
Irwansyah also sounded the horn and this made Azizah surprised. He lowered his car window.
"Iza, here go up!" irwansyah.
Azizah obeyed her husband's orders. He was sitting in the driver's side seat.
"Why you?" asked Irwansyah when she saw the face of her second wife. He held both Azizah cheeks and looked at her wistfully. He knew lately that people often talk about this kind woman. Even though he had denied their accusations to his second wife, still the people liked to talk about what was made by themselves.
"Don't grieve. Do not listen to their words" said Irwansyah, hugging Azizah.
"My heart hurts, Bang!" The crying of Azizah finally broke.
"Cry if it can eliminate or reduce the pain in your heart," said Irwansyah while stroking his wife's back.
About 10 minutes Azizah cried in her husband's arms. After that, he also calmed down.
"Is it wrong for a woman to be a second wife?" asked Azizah in a clean manner.
"There is nothing wrong with rules made by God. Polygamy is allowed in Islam. It would be better if the men who wanted to be polygamous knew what the reason they were doing this was. The Messenger of Allah and his companions who practice polygamy are not obedient to their naps. They do it for the sake of the religion of Islam. They mostly married widows whose husbands were martyred while fighting in the way of Allah. The widows also had children that they had to raise while the husband's possessions were either absent or few. But, Penomena now instead married a beautiful young woman. More seductive than the first wife. There are still a lot of unmarried women. They should have offered it to the bachelors first. So that they can perfect their religion," said Irwansyah and their conversation ended because it had reached the home page.
"It was a long time ago to buy. Turns out you guys go have fun first" said Aunt Rose who was standing at the door. Not far from her were Mama Fatonah and Rela who were staring at Irwansyah and Azizah.

Will there be another misunderstanding at Irwansyah's house? Why is Aunt Rose still at home? Wait for it to go, yeah!
