36. Wrathful

Jaka casually walked towards the building which had given him shelter from the heat and rain. His steps and heart were stopped when his feet stepped on the terrace.

"Ho o I was found out, next door neighbor if I am a two-child widower, her sister Dara," said Dara saying that with a singing tone.

"Eh, are you here, Yu?" jaka asked wrongly.

"So, this is your house, Mom?" tanya Ayu still could not hide her surprise.

"Yes. When's home?"

"Yes, it's coming home, Mom."

"That's not what it means, Anin when he comes home from the hospital, that's what I mean," said Jaka with half a wave.

"Oh, this morning, yes if so I go home first, yes Mas. Agil we're home now, yuk!" take Ayu to her two children

"Lah, he said let it be here first, Mbak will pick up Alif. masa want to pick up Alif one family, anyway Mbak. Anin just healed, loh masa want to be taken for a walk," said Dara prevent Anin from being taken by her mother.

"You want to pick up Alif? Let's take you!" tawang Jaka

"No need, Mas. It's okay I can do it alone. You just got home from work better rest." Ayu refused subtly, as smooth as the heartbeat she suddenly felt.

"It's okay, Yu. Do not refuse sustenance, some offer kindness also including sustenance. I'm going there!" sela Bu Lin while chewing snacks that should be for her grandchildren.

"But, Ma'am a..."

"The night rush, the hunt's off!" Cut Bu Lin quickly.

Ayu looked at the man who was not far from her. As if understanding with the gaze of the woman, in the man nodded slowly.

An awkward atmosphere accompanied Ayu and Jaka who were in that same vehicle. I don't know, this fact makes them even further away. Ayu who feels hesitant because it turns out he is troublesome Jaka family, while Jaka feels embarrassed and insecure because Ayu knows the state of his economy.

Yes, the economy of the Jaka family is not lacking, but all that mediocre is what makes Jaka insecure on himself.

"Kok you never told me, Mas if you're Bu Lin's son? Sorry, yes I troubled your mother by leaving the children to the mother. Though the mother's granddaughter has two plus babysitting my children." Ayu ventured to open her voice so that this silence would disappear.

"No problem, as long as mom is happy I don't mind that, Yu. And it's not every day you nitip kids."

"I didn't know the world turned out to be this narrow. You don't know how happy I am, God sent good people into my life. I'm grateful to know you guys."

"Thank God if our presence makes you feel happy. By the way, Alif how can you name your ex-husband?"

"Pue. Actually yesterday it was his intention he wanted to help me not to bother, Mas. but I refuse, I'm afraid that Alif there was even treated unkindly with his grandmother. But Alif even wanted to be taken there. Yes, it was the time I banned. But since this morning Anang I can't call, so I'm worried if anything happens to Alif."

"Thinking well. Sometimes whatever happens is on the basis of our thinking, Alif must be fine."

Not long after they arrived at Anang's house. The house looks quiet and dark, of course it makes Ayu more panic and worry.

"Mas, Mrs Anang!" yelled Ayu banged on the door.

There's no answer.

"Try the phone again, Yu! Maybe they're taking a walk again."

Ayu nodded and reached into her phone in the bag. When placing the flat object near the ear, it appears that the motor is driving towards them. Knowing that Anang, Ayu returned her phone and walked towards the motor.

"Account is inside. Go in first, let's both calm down." said Anang who actually he was confused what to answer.

"Don't make me worry more, which Alif? Why aren't you the same?" tanya Ayu followed the steps of Anang who entered the house and restarted the lights.

"Sit down, Yu. I'll make you a drink."

"Mas, I'm not here to drink or to visit. I asked where Alif was. Why don't you answer?" snapped Ayu who did not like the pleasantries of Anang.

"Ok, okay. I was sorry, Yu. I had no news all day because I was also looking for Alif. She went with mom, and Alif's missing."

"What?" ask Ayu lirih.

The heart that had been struggling since felt bad, now feels stopped beating. His tongue felt faint to speak, his body was unable to stand firmly, his employees felt taken by Anang who easily spoke.

"How can you let your mother take my son? You know how your mother behaves to her granddaughter!" yelled Ayu loudly.

"Sorry, Yu. I took Alif without my knowledge, this morning I went to get a absorption, so Alif was no longer home."

"Oh Allah, Alif." Ayu was no longer able to stand on his feet, he fell on the floor, suddenly his body limp and limp. Fortunately Jaka sped up to catch Ayu's body.

"Can you please get some water?" said Jaka.

He ran to the kitchen and returned quickly. He poured a glass of water on Jaka.

"Yu, drink a little to calm down. If you are like this, you will not be able to think clearly. A little, it's okay."

He drank a little water in front of his mouth. Ayu was still as excited, but much better than before.

Ayu got up after regaining her strength. He walked out of the house and ran quickly to his former mother-in-law's house. Jaka and Anang to be unable to catch up with the pace of Ayu's movement.

Bruaks!

Without permission and saying anything, Ayu opened the door of Anang's mother's house violently, her sadness just vanished and turned into wrath.

"Mother Lasmi, get out!" yelled Ayu into the house.

The woman who was being overwhelmed by anger walked towards her former mother-in-law's room. He did the same thing when he opened the main door. The woman who was over fifty years old was shocked.

Ayu remained silent in the middle of the door with a hunting breath and a gaze filled with anger.

"Get up, patience, Yu. Don't do this!" said Jaka trying to win Ayu by holding the woman's wrist.

Ayu did not comment on Jaka's words. He slowly brushed the man's hand away and walked to his former mother-in-law's bed.

"The more here this woman is increasingly disrespectful, yes this is the attitude shown by people who have no parents and unclear origins. What else are you doing here?" snapped at Lasmi's mom without any guilt what else felt sinful.

Jaka was astonished at the old woman's words.

Anang was no less surprised, he was like he did not know his mother. How could his mother have spoken so when she made such a mistake?

While Ayu had already clenched her teeth. He clenched both his hands holding back the anger.
