Chapter 40

Mama Fatonah stared intently at Azizah while Rela looked at her honey with a look of disbelief. While Azizah herself, was frightened by the perceived gaze pressing down on her.

"I never did anything that Mama accused me of" said Azizah lirih.

"So, you mean mama has slandered you?" Mama Fatonah glared at Azizah.

Azizah silently could not defend herself. Right now he doesn't know what to say.

"The medicine did belong to Azizah because she was constipated. He was two weeks unable to defecate, so he bought the medicine" Irwansyah told reporters. He did not want any misunderstanding to happen to them.

"Snakes for two weeks? You think you'd believe a story like that?" Mama Fatonah stared cynically at Azizah and Irwansyah in turn.

Irwansyah looked at Rela, looking disappointed in her eyes. Though he hopes his first wife can calm his mother at this time. However, what he saw at the moment. Rela instead brought her two children to their room upstairs.

'Are you very angry? To the point of saying nothing.' Irwansyah spoke in her heart.

The room went back into silence because everyone was silent. Mama Fatonah was still staring at Azizah. Azizah herself just lowered her head.

"You better get out of this house! I don't want to stay on one roof with people trying to harm me!" mama Fatonah snapped while pounding the table in front of her. 

Irwansyah and Azizah were shocked. Moreover, Azizah who looks very frightened and hurt at the words of her in-laws.

"Ma, don't be like this. Azizah will remain here until her house is completed. Then, all this is just a misunderstanding. Although it was Azizah's laxative not necessarily she did as alleged by Mama just now," Irwansyah denied.

"Irwan, the victim there are three lives! You still defend your young wife? Goody. Indeed, if you have a new wife often forget the same old one. I won't even hesitate to throw it away for a young wife" said Mama Fatonah and pulled out Irwansyah and Azizah.

"Mama! I'll never throw Rela away. She's my wife, the woman I love the most! How could I possibly do the thing that Mama was accused of. It's the same as me killing myself slowly." Irwansyah spoke in a high tone. For the rest of his life he never spoke in such a high tone to his mother. Especially snapping.

"You yelled at me, just to defend this woman" said Mama Fatonah cynically.

What kind of feeling is Azizah now? He could no longer describe his feelings at this moment. Heartache for feeling vilified, expression of her husband's dead love for her honey sister, and having to be evicted from this house. It felt like the pain he was feeling right now.

"Sorry, Ma. Not that I mean …."

"Then let your mother come out of this house. Mama will take Rela and the kids too" said Mama Fatonah as she moved from her seat.

How surprised Irwansyah and Azizah heard Mama Fatonah's words. Then, both of them stood up.

"Ma, don't be like this. We are one family. We should love and care for each other. I'll never let anyone out of this house!" irwansyah said firmly.

"Bang, I'd better go home to my parents. Later, if the house is finished I can immediately stay there," said Azizah.

"No. You're not going anywhere. So will the others, all will stay here" replied Irwansyah while rubbing Azizah's cheek.

"But, Bang—"

"Stttt. Let me handle mama later," cut Irwansyah.

"I don't want to go far from Abang" said Azizah while hugging Irwansyah's body.

"Yes. Likewise with me who does not want you to be far from me," replied Irwansyah.

Rela stood stiffly at the entrance of the room, seeing the sight that hurt his eyes and heart. He was about to ask Irwansyah something. Actually what has happened, why his mother-in-law to take him and his children away from home. Then, Rela also moved from there accompanied by tears.

Polygamy is often identified by women with tears. If not an old wife who cries, it means a young wife who cries. All this time Rela was willing to share her husband with Azizah. He felt sorry for her and he also believed that they could together build a wise household, mawadah, wa rahmah. Both worship to hope for His heaven. However, there was still sometimes an intruder into his heart. Whether it's feelings of envy, jealousy, or prejudice in the honey.

"Telles, clothes and needs of the children have been completed mama prepared. You also clean the items you will bring and also enough baby equipment. The rest we will buy" Mama Fatonah told Rela as they passed in the second floor hallway.

Mama Fatonah who was usually lazy to go up to the second floor, now strengthens her legs to go upstairs. Just to prepare for the needs of his two grandchildren.

"Rela has to talk first to bang Irwan, Ma," replied the first daughter-in-law.

"Of course you say it, after all, in the end he will also prefer his young wife. We better get out of here quickly," said Mama Fatonah.

Rela was silent. He knew that Irwansyah already loved his second wife. However, that does not mean he does not love and love her anymore. She was sure that her husband's love and affection for her still existed even though it was little or greater than she expected.

"But, Ma. The children are currently sleeping," said Rela.

"You just get everything ready now. Let the children wake up we can go immediately," said Mama Fatonah.

"It is not that I as a wife must get permission first from the husband, if you want to go outside the house," said Rela and made Mama Fatonah upset.

"Then you do, I'm sure Irwan will never let you out of this house" Mama Fatonah said in an angry tone.

"Who will leave this house?" Suddenly Irwansyah was already standing behind Rela's body.

***

Will Rela and Mama Fatonah leave the house? Or Azizah will go from there? Wait for it to go, yeah!
