Regretting After Being Discarded
1 Changed

Desi who had just returned from the market went straight to her kitchen to cook because her husband would soon wake up and go to work. In the middle of her life, her husband called her.

“Desi!” Call Anton

Desi approached her husband who was screaming for his name

“What the heck mas, why should scream, I'm cooking in the kitchen” said Desi

“This is my shirt where, blue shirt why is there no?” Snap Anton

“Just clothes until screaming so, embarrassed to be heard by neighbors mas” said Desi to calm her husband

“You're not so smart as a wife, where do you want me to wear the clothes”

“That's the shirt I hung mas, you said you want to wear now so I've ironed also” Desi pointed to a blue hem shirt that has been neat

“After this I want to eat” he said passed to the bathroom

Desi sighed, indeed this was not the first time her husband snapped at her but still her heart felt pain if her husband always even almost every day snapped at her. Desi returned to the kitchen to prepare food for her husband.

Desi and Anton have been married for 3 years, but until now they have no children. Anton's mother always asked when she would hold a grandchild, because her neighbors had held her grandchildren.

“Have been married for many years but not yet the love of grandchildren, mamah also want to hold grandchildren like the neighbors of mama, their children have just been married a few months already pregnant, she said, lah you have been 3 years there are no signs of also” even every mother-in-law to the house the sentence was like a necessity that he said made the heart of Desi more sick, more sick, moreover, her husband's attitude lately turned rough and like there is no soft-soft anymore.

Desi survives because she believes her husband will change, perhaps because she is tired of working her attitude like that. Whether until when he had to be patient again, the ration he received was decreasing. The first year of Desi received a monthly ration of 1.5 million, after the second year the ration was decreased the reason given by her husband was for her mother, so that her mother was not in distress, she said, and the severity of the 3rd year of his marriage rations given Anton only 700 thousand, and it should be enough to buy and pay for electricity and other necessities.

Every time asked, he must have said to his mother when his mother only lives alone, for shopping was not too much expenditure, he said, unlike her who lives together and Anton always asks for a different menu every day, making Desi must be smart to arrange the money to be enough for one month.

If for her husband 700 thousand money is enough for a month's life, because she does not yet know if the price of materials, the price of materials, fish and vegetables have gone up not to mention the gas they have to exchange for every five days.

“Later I come home late yes, overtime because the work piles” said Anton feed rice on his mouth

“Why overtime almost every day mas?” ask Desi

“Ya the name is also work, you how the husband works instead of being supported even suspected” he said up

“Not suspicious mas, why must every day overtime”

Desi just stared at the departure of her husband, she intended to check into his office later that afternoon really her husband will be overtime, he just made sure, Desi did not want to just fight alone to maintain his household, he said, if indeed her husband had another then she would step down, it was enough one year she was patient with the treatment of her husband and mother-in-law who increasingly did not appreciate her existence.

After finishing cleaning all the food, Desi cleaned the room and washed the clothes.

“Desi! Desi! Open the door” shouted Ratna

Hearing someone call his name Desi immediately came out and opened the door.

“Mother, let's go in bu, already from earlier ya bu?” desi

“You this mom call-call to anywhere the mother's voice until it's exhausted because of you. Mother-in-law came instead of being welcomed and was left screaming what kind of daughter-in-law you are” Ratna snapped

“Sorry ma'am I was washing clothes so do not listen if mom calls, let's go in mom embarrassed to hear people if mom screams like this” replied Desi

“Let your neighbor know that you are a son-in-law not becus. Already there continue to wash his clothes, see you this is how it fits so the maid is not a daughter-in-law, you should look attractive so that your husband feels at home, if you are like this your husband can even glance at other women” said Ratna

“Mother is talking like that anyway, I am like this also for Anton” mas replied Desi

“You are told instead of thinking of answering mother, every mother here will be even upset, instead of being welcomed even against being told to know” Ratna said cynically

“Sorry ma'am, but mother said it hurt me, I should be happy if I can take care of Anton mas despite my appearance like this, I should be happy if I can take care of Anton, this is all an also because of Anton bu” said Desi sad

“Mommy wants to go home this way, even make emotions” Ratna said go out

Her mother-in-law's words hurt her heart, again and again her heart must be hurt by the words of her mother-in-law who was never aware of her own words.

Desi continued to wash her clothes, she finished everything and she also cleaned herself to be fresher because from the morning I had already taken a trip due to going to the market and cooking for her husband, but her husband did not spend his breakfast.

Desi dropped her tears, the marriage she hoped would make her feel happy just made her tormented, her husband's gentle attitude now like a lion who wants to eat his prey. There is no harmony, no warm greetings even go home to work Desi does not know because it is too late so it makes him sleep first. He even forgot if he had not had breakfast because he was busy with taking care of the house. Desi to the dining table to prop up her stomach that has rung.

Desi recalled her mother-in-law's words saying she was like a maid only because of her unkempt appearance. Though Desi did all that to serve all the needs and needs of the husband, until he did not have time to think about his appearance again.

“Oh yes later in the afternoon I will go to Anton's mas office to prove whether he is really overtime or not” Desi said

Finished doing all the homework Desi rested, his body felt sore because it had to wash clothes, he did not use washing mesons to be more efficient, because the money given is always fitting every month.
