Not the Idle Wife
Chapter 5

Jelita lay on the sofa with her eyes glaring over the ceiling of the room. The woman seemed to ponder over her present fate as the unwelcome wife. To retreat, it was already impossible because they were already legal as husband and wife.

"Now I leave everything to You, O Lord. Whatever happens next, I'm sure it's the best. Patience to me, Lord, to respond to my husband's attitude. May one day, the door of his heart open and accept me with sincerity. Amen,"

The bathroom door opened again as Jelita finished her prayers and wishes. The woman turned her back to the bed, faced the back of the sofa and closed her eyes.

Meanwhile, Gavin moved his tail his eyes glanced towards the sofa. The man shrugged his shoulders and casually climbed up onto the bed, not caring about Jelita.

The man leaned his body against the back of the bed while playing his cell phone.

Tok ... tok ...

"Gavin, Jelita!" the voice of the woman was none other than Melinda's voice from the direction of the door.

Gavin jumped from the bed and approached Jelita.

"Hey, get up, get up!" Gavin patted Jelita on the shoulder with a panicked face.

Jelita opened her eyes, who had fallen asleep and turned to look at Gavin.

"What's wrong?" hiss Jelita with a soft, typical person just woke up.

" Mama is at the door. Now you get on the bed and sleep there. Remember you don't make any noise at all, and don't complain!" Gavin involuntarily pulled Jelita's hand and forced her into bed.

"But why should I sleep here? not that you don't want to ___"

"Shut up! not a lot of bacots! what is clear is that now you are lying down and pretending to sleep! remember don't make any noise and don't complain, okay!" Gavin repeated his orders. Then the man stepped towards the door to open the door for his mother who had not stopped knocking.

"What the hell is it, Ma?" Gavin makes his voice as lazy as possible, typical of people waking up while yawning.

"Where's Jelita? you're not being rude to him, are you?" Melinda put her head into the room, to see Jelita's daughter-in-law. From then on the woman's heart felt unsettled, afraid that her son Gavin would forbid her son-in-law to sleep next to her.

"Jelita's asleep, Mah."

"You didn't ask him to sleep on the couch or on the floor, did you?" her mother's eyebrows are linked, suspicious.

"No dong, Ma. What, Mama's suspicious of her own child?" Gavin pretended to put on a disappointed look.

"How do you know, right? because of that, my mom's bad feeling,"

"So unfortunately mama is the same cat," inwardly Gavin, annoyed.

Meanwhile, from the corner of Jelita's eyes, came out a crystal clear liquid, hearing the words of her mother-in-law who loved her very much.

"Revelation, you move aside! Mama wants to see what you say is true or not" Melinda removes Gavin's body from her.

A smile rose on the middle-aged woman's lips, as soon as she saw Jelita sleeping on the bed.

"Well, I'm not lying" said Gavin, who was standing behind his mother.

Melinda turned her body and smiled sweetly at her son.

"I'm sorry if my mom couldn't believe it. It turns out that only mama who thinks excessively," said Melinda without removing a smile from her lips.

"Gavin, please love him. She has no one else in the world but her husband, mother and father. I'm sure, son, that she's a good girl and really suits you,"

"Yes, Mah!" it sounded authentic from the mouth of Gavin, who seemed forced.

"Yes, my mom went back to the room! remember my mom's message," Melinda swung her leg out after Gavin nodded her head, assuring her.

Before Melinda reached the door, suddenly the woman stopped stepping and went back to twisting her body.

"What else, Mah?" Gavin squinted his forehead.

"Emm, didn't you guys do it?" melinda asked, ambiguous in a very slow tone almost similar to whispering.

"Do what?" gavin's forehead grew wrinkled and his eyes narrowed.

"You don't pretend to be stupid! I'm sure you're old enough to mean what you mean" Melinda said, looking at her son, who she said pretended not to know.

Gavin immediately, scratching his head that does not itch, so understand where his mother's talk.

"Emm, not yet, Mah. I entered the room, Jelita was already asleep," Gavin gave a reason to hope his mother believed and did not ask again.

"Ohh, so?" Melinda nodded her head, understood.

"Your people! just the first night was already left asleep," led Melinda , while stroking her son's back.

" You are patient! there are still other nights, for you and Jelita to make grandchildren for mom and dad. Every night you can do it, and I'm sure it's not a boring activity even if it's done every night,"

Jelita, almost coughed at the words of her mother-in-law who she thought was too frontal. Fortunately, he managed to hold back by closing his mouth.

"Yeah, Mah. Now, Mama's back in the room. Papa must be confused, if Mama is suddenly not beside him,"Gavin looks impatient. The man was afraid that his mother would still chatter, about something that he thought was useless.

"Oh, yes, mama forgot!" Melinda patted her own jidat. "Your father must have run, because my mother did not leave the room," in a hurry, Melinda came out of Gavin's room.

Gavin immediately closed the door of his room and locked it from the inside

"Who would want to do that with him? just looking at it I was reluctant, let alone touching it, "gavin muttered which Jelita's ears could still hear.

"Hey, wake you up! don't sleep here!"

Jelita opened her eyes and sat down. Gavin immediately shook his head, looking at the woman's swollen face. At once the man's heart felt pity, but his sense of ego was greater than his mother's, so that the sense of pity was quickly removed by the ego.

"You crying? why are you crying? do you think your tears can make me feel sorry? it doesn't work at all. Instead of your tears making my bed wet and dirty, now you're back on the couch!" PP

Jelita did not answer at all, because she thought it was useless to reply to the man. He will still lose. Jelita stepped up, passed through Gavin's body just like that and directly laid her body on the sofa.

The woman, back lying down with her back to the bed.

Gavin was stunned, not going straight up to the bed. There was an unpleasant feeling arising in his heart. The man twisted his body, turning to look towards the sofa. Jelita's shoulders were up and down, a sign that the woman was crying.

"Am I being too cruel to her?" batin Gavin while massaging the base of his nose.

"No! you're not cruel, Gavin! remember never to be touched by her tears. He's just pretending in front of you. Don't ever do him any good, he'll run, "the guilt that had stopped, went somewhere, once the negative thoughts about Jelita came back into his mind.

"It seems, it's dangerous that I'm still living in this house. I'm really not free to move later. So I better ask my mom and dad to let us live in a different house" Gavin nodded his head.
