Price of a Daster
Chapter 8 is becoming

The days went by, for a week after that night, Apandi always came home on time. He began to talk to Amanda again and give the inner living of a husband to his wife.

Amanda wanted to accept Apandi's apology, because she remembered Mr. Ustadz saying, if there is someone who wants his separation with Apandi so that the person takes the smooth path.

However, after the passing of one week, Apandi began to return indifferent and often went home the night even after he came home, sometimes he came out again for work reasons.

Like today, when Amanda asked her where her husband was going, she instead got heart-piercing words from Apandi.

"Mas, it's eight. Where are you going these nights?" amanda asked as she watched her husband dress up in front of the mirror.

"I went to the condangan first, have made a deal with a friend of the office," Lies Apandi.

"Non't the clock go this way? Why wasn't it noon?" Amanda felt strange about her husband.

"You always suspect the same husband, such as lack of work. Instead of acting like a detective, you better do homework so that the house always looks neat. Look in the basket! Clothes that have not been rubbed up to the mountain so," pointed Apandi.

"My stomach is cramping again, Mom! If you are taken to sit down, rub the clothes hurt," complained Amanda. Indeed, ever since Amanda gave birth to her second child she has had frequent lower abdominal cramps.

"Huh, you are spoiled. That pain does not want anything," said Apandi.

Amanda was just speechless, not wanting to answer her husband's words because she did not want to have another fight between them. Especially since he was actually enduring the pain.

I don't recognize you anymore, Mom! The more you get here, you often talk that hurts my heart. Do I mean nothing to you anymore? inner Amanda.

Day turned into night, night changed with morning. Every day Amanda just struggling with her work taking care of the house and her son.

It has become a habit of Amanda, every morning prayers she finished vegetable shopping for breakfast. Although at home there is a refrigerator, but he prefers vegetables that look fresh to cook, so rarely store vegetables for long in the refrigerator.

But apparently, when he went to buy vegetables, Azka woke up from her sleep so as to disturb Apandi who was still asleep.

"Manda, Manda!!!" yelled Apandi calling his wife. But she did not get any advice, while Azka cried even louder because she could not find her mother.

"Where else are people? It was still early in the morning, instead of taking care of the children" murmured Apandi.

"Huaa ... the note is that, the note is that (The mother is lost, the mother is lost)." The crying Azka was getting louder.

"Shut, Deck! Don't cry, you will also go home" Apandi joked. Instead of stopping, Azka cried even louder.

Not long after, Amanda returned with tentengan in her hand filled with food for her family's breakfast. He was running a little while from far away, Azka's voice was crying.

"Where have you been, Manda? Buy vegetables all day. Tomorrow if shopping bring Azka! Just interrupt my sleep," growled Apandi. He was very upset that his three-hour sleep had been disrupted.

Wrong yourself home in the morning! Then it was time for dawn prayers and sleep continued, Amanda grumbled in her heart.

"So that's ngantri, Mas! If early in the morning like fried scramble," elak Amanda.

Amanda just rubbed her chest and read Istighfar see her husband's behavior increasingly becoming

If I don't remember the kids, I think I want to give up being your wife, Mas. Every day you go out at night somewhere. Every time I asked, the dictionary scolded me. What in your eyes, I look so bad and mean nothing? What is your love that was lost?

Amanda continued to struggle with her thoughts as if preparing ingredients to cook. Without feeling the blood was already spilling on his finger.

"Unda, dayah dayah (Mother, blood blood)!" point at Azka who is being carried in the back by Amanda.

Amanda was immediately shocked when she saw her index finger hit by a knife. He immediately washed his hands and treated them.

The sky was dark, the sun was no longer visible. Just waiting for the moon to come out of the dispute. However, it seemed that even tonight the moon seemed so timid that it hid behind a black cloud.

Apandi who had just arrived just before Magrib, now he was ready to leave again. I want Amanda to forbid her husband to leave the house at night. However, it will definitely lead to a fight.

Without saying goodbye to Amanda, Apandi left his son and wife at home. However, not long after Apandi's departure, Azka suddenly vomited on the mattress when she suddenly woke up from her sleep. Amanda who was just about to sleep was immediately shocked and cleaned up the vomit marks that filled the sheets. The mother of the two children searched the P3K box for a cure.

Despite being given medicine and covered with traditional herbs, Azka still continued to vomit all the food that had been eaten this afternoon so Amanda panicked because Azka vomited continuously without stopping.

Feeling worried about her youngest son, Amanda immediately carried Azka and took her to the hospital. But first, Amanda entrusts Kia to her neighbor.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Bude!"

"Wa'alaikumsalam" said Bude Marni from the inside.

"Bude, leave Kia until her dad gets home, 'cause I'm going to the hospital. Azka vomit continues not to stop," explained Amanda

"Here play with Bude, the mother wants to take Ade to the doctor first," Marni asked Kia who was still not aware of a hundred percent because it was suddenly awakened by Amanda. "Who are you going with, Manda?"

"I've ordered the grab car, Masa Pandi is out can not be contacted." Amanda looked down sad, let alone see her son who had fallen limp.

"If there's a pakde can ask to take her, but pakde entered the night. Patience Manda, Bude notice your husband is often not at home. Does he have another wife?" ask Marni

"I don't know Bude, maybe he did, but he said it was a work matter" Amanda said.

"The temptation of the man who owns the treasure and the throne is of course the woman. We as wives must not remain silent and just surrender but must be able to maintain what is already ours." Marni advises Amanda, whom she considers her own sister.

"Yes Bude, that's the car already coming. Manda go first, please tell Mas Pandi if you come home later Bude!" After saying goodbye to Marni, Amanda immediately entered the car that had been booked through the application.
