Princess Reunion Cost
Can't do..!

Two days passed, since the exit of Siti and Batra from the house of Niar bundo. Halimah's bundo was lying on top of the guest bed. He looks weak and uninspired. Time has shown at four in the afternoon. But the figure of Fadli, his favorite son, has not yet appeared to meet him.

Geck!

Geck!

Geck!

Suddenly, there was a knock from outside the room.

Bundo Halimah turned to the door of the room, then he again heard a knock along with the sound of Bundo Niar who was calling himself.

"Well, ooo... Ma.." Call Bundo Niar.

Hearing the bundo Niar calling his name, the bundo Halimah sat up and rushed to wear a turban, as a covering of his head. After that, he went to open the door of the room.

"Yes, uni?" Answer the Halimah bundle.

"Si Fadli has come" said Niar.

Instantly, both of Halimah's bundo eyes looked sparkling. Happiness approached him too. His confidence was answered already, if Fadli would surely come to meet him. Or even take him to live with his son.

"Five nyo ni?" Asked Halimah bundo excitedly.

"Ado in the living room. Hurry up and meet your son, " said Bundo Niar.

"Let's uni." Bundo Halimah rushed to the living room.

Arriving at Halimah's bundo in the living room, he saw Fadli, along with his son and wife, sitting waiting for him. At that moment, Halimah's bundo approached Fadli and hugged his son tightly. Bundo Halimah cried in Fadli's arms. While the son and wife of Fadli, only able to stare at the rest of the sorrow that was deliberately expressed by the bundo Halimah to Fadli.

Fadli reciprocated Halimah's bundo hug. The look on his face was flat and very difficult to guess. Whether he was feeling loss, sorrow, regret, or whatever it was, no one could see it from Fadli's face.

"Your sajo kama? What did you end up. Kenapo you indak coming soon? Adiak you the Siti bangih nyo." Sesal bundo Halimah, in between her cries.

Fadli let out a long breath. Then he let go of his embrace and led Halimah's bundo to sit beside him.

"Fadli said samo bundo. Fadli in lua nagari" replied Fadli.

Bundo Halimah wiped her tears and looked at Fadli closely. While Fadli's wife, went to greet Halimah bundo.

"Bundo," said Fadli's wife, whose name was Rima.

"Yes.." Sahut bundo Halimah.

"Sir," said Fadli's eldest son. While the second, still in the sling of the mother.

"Yes.." Sahut bundo Halimah, while kissing and hugging her grandson.

"So, what's in I'm in a bun?" Ask Fadli.

"Are you, I was at the family funeral. Did you dig our house?" Ask Bundo Halimah.

"Already" said Fadli.

"Our house is up, son. Either dima bundo ka tingga now."

Fadli's face suddenly changed. He seemed to be thinking of something that weighed on his mind.

"Si Siti baa, bun? How to get back to Jakarta?" Ask Fadli, without ignoring Halimah's previous bundo speech.

"Sink. Inyo pie is the hariko duo." Answer the Halimah bundle.

"Kok bundo indak know? Nyo baliak to Jakarta?" Ask Fadli again.

Bundo Halimah simply shook her head and went silent in silence.

"Manga bundo indak ikuik jo si Siti? Lamak hiduik in Jakarta."

Bundo Halimah was flabbergasted at Fadli's words.

"House is the rato jo land. Tu, kama lai bundo ka tingga?" Fadli.

Bundo Halimah frowned. Then he looked at Fadli closely.

"Bundo please help jo you, Fadli. Please wake up to the house. Ketek also indak problems," said Halimah bundo.

"Building houses?" Fadli asked, with an expression of disbelief.

"Let's go, you're the only one who can count on. If it's Siti, poor nyo!"

Fadli glanced at his wife who started to put on an uncomfortable face.

"We just bought a house, Bun. We also took a trip from abroad. Our money is up" said Fadli.

"But, Fadli..."

Not yet finished talking Halimah bundo, Rima also cut off the conversation.

"Bundo, we also need a lot of expenses for living and preparing our child's school. So, we can't help building a bundo house. After all, for the Minang people, who are entitled to the house is the Siti, not uda Fadli or his children. So, why didn't Bundo ask to build a house on Siti alone?"

Bundo Halimah was flabbergasted as she looked at Rima with a look of disbelief.

"If you can, don't burden the child. We're trying to live a decent life in the people's region." Connect Rima.

The deg!

Halimah's bundo heart also felt hit by rocks. The pain due to Rima's words, flowing throughout his body. To make Halimah's bundo chest feel tight.

They all fell silent. Including bundo Niar who also sat in the living room.

"Hmmm, how about this bundle of yours, in the rented house. Or. come with you to Batam." Finally Bundo Niar ventured to give the middle way.

"Come? No way! I've been too busy taking care of two kids at once. There's no way I'm taking care of the bundo too!" Rima said, firmly.

Bundo Halimah was again flabbergasted and looked at Rima with a look of disbelief.

"Astaghfirullahalazim home... Then how about renting a house. Let your bundos be comfortable," said Bundo Niar again.

"can't. We told you that we also need a fee. We can't help at all. After all, the bundo kid isn't just uda Fadli right?" Said Rima, with a look of annoyed face.

Bundo Halimah looked at Rima and Fadli with tears in her eyes. Bundo Halimah was no longer able to stem his sadness. Already lost a husband, lost a house and its contents. Now the child he was proud of could not help himself. Even his own daughter-in-law, blatantly rejected him.

"So, let's go back to the hotel!" Rima Command.

Like a cow that fits his nose, Fadli also moved from his seat and obeyed his wife's request without thinking about his mother's feelings who were hoping for Fadli's mercy as a child.

"Fadli pamit used to be bun. Advice Fadli, come along with Siti. After all, Siti's husband once lived the same bundo This is the time she returned the favor. If Fadli himself, to be honest, Fadli can not accommodate bundos," said Fadli, while greeting the Halimah bundo.

Then Fadli turned and walked towards the door of the house, along with his son and wife.

"Fade.." Call the Halimah bundo.

Fadli turned his head and looked at Halimah's bundo of gazes that seemed to feel guilty.

"Bring bundo, Fadli.. Bundo.." Bundo Halimah, looked so fond of tears that continued to wet his cheeks.

"Sorry bundo. Later Fadli phone the Siti, to pick up the bundo. Assalamu'alaikum" said Fadli. Then he and his son and wife left the bundle and the house just like that.

Bundo Halimah could not resist the taste of the pill. He sat on the floor, and roared withstanding the pain in his heart.

"Fadliii..." Call again.

But all that was seen was the back of Fadli and his family who slowly disappeared from the sight of his eyes.

"Relief! Halima! Wake Halimah!" Niar bundo.
