SUFFERING AN EMPTY SON-IN-LAW
Anger that is no longer contained

The sun will soon disappear in the darkness.

"It looks like Inah's done cooking, let's eat together." Take Miss Tika to everyone

Stefani, who initially hesitated, continues to be persuaded by Bu Tika, and eventually follows everyone to the dinner table.

There are six seats there. Reno sits between Stefani and Hilwa. While Mr. Dedi sat between Bu Tika and Anita. What is certain is that Ms. Tika is sitting next to Stefani, so that she feels comfortable.

Everyone took their own plates, Hilwa deftly picked up rice and side dishes for her husband. "Thank you dear" Reno said

Hilwa smiled, and sat down in her chair.

"Son Stefani, this is Reno's favorite spicy squid, please get it for her, son" Ms. Tika who thrust the spicy squid in front of Stefani.

Of course, Stefani was very happy. He swiftly put the spicy calamari on Reno's plate. "Thank you" Reno said

"Same brother" said Stefani

"Darling, you want to sambelnya not?" ask Reno to Hilwa

"By brother" Hilwa directly thrust his plate

"I also want sis, sambelnya" Stefani did not want to lose.

And Reno put the sauce on Stefani's plate.

They ate quietly, there was no sound but spoons and plates clashing against each other.

After eating, they disperse. Reno and Mr. Dedi go to the back porch. Anita, Miss Tika and Stefani go to the living room. While Hilwa and bi Inah take care of the dirty dishes and bring them to the kitchen.

"Have it, let auntie go. Neng Hilwa mending joined the mother or den Reno" said bi Inah

"No papa bi, anyways there's Stefani. I must be disturbed if I join." said Hilwa bluntly

Bi inah could understand what Hilwa was feeling. Finally he let Hilwa help him in the kitchen.

In the living room there was the sound of her mother-in-law chatting with Stefani. But Hilwa did not hear clearly what they were talking about.

Who was in the living room, Ms. Tika was very enthusiastic about listening to the daily life that Stefani was doing, and had mentioned about Reno's relationship with Stefani first.

"Yes, I'm so sorry why you guys split up first. Try if you're the mother's daughter-in-law, surely you'll be very happy."

Stefani who heard Bu Tika's words felt above the wind. "Lho instead, Reno's sister's wife looks really good huh, ma'am. Why do you expect me to be your daughter-in-law." said Stefani, actually she was just fishing, so she could hear Bu Tika vilifying Hilwa.

"Women are not good enough, she must also be able to give offspring to her husband. And Reno's wife, can't give it. I'm sure Reno will leave his wife alone." said Bu Tika, he did not know, there was someone who had listened to their conversation since, with a reddened face holding back anger.

Yes, Hilwa had been not far from them. Hilwa, who initially wanted to give tea, to her mother-in-law and guests.

But Hilwa had to hear her mother-in-law talk about her shortcomings to other women.

And even worse, Stefani who already knew Hilwa was there. That's why he deliberately lured Ms. Tika.

Hilwa held the tray very firmly, she tried her best to temper her disappointment.

He walked over to Bu Tika and Stefani. "This is Ma'am's tea."

"Enough Ma'am ! I should have said it wasn't me or this woman. But try to tell your own son, that way he won't have to bother asking me to come back." Hilwa who was already unable to contain the anger in her heart.

"You've dared yes, yell at me!" Miss Tika won't lose either.

"Mom, it's Mom. I'll hear you and Reno." Anita tries to suppress her mother's anger

"Leave it, let Reno and your father know. If this woman is not worthy to be in the midst of our family."

Deg. . .

The words of Ms. Tika, have really gone too far.

Hilwa, who could not stand it anymore, came out of the house, passing Reno and her father-in-law.

"Wa, where are you going? what's going on?" Reno is shocked to see his running wife wanting to leave the house in tears.

"Please brother, right said mother. I shouldn't still be here. And I shouldn't have come back to you." Hilwa continues to thrash

"Wait a minute, son. What the hell is going on? why are you talking like that?" ask Mr. Dedi. He was also surprised by the words of his son-in-law.

Hilwa continued to thrash, she could not say a word. His heart and pride were so broken, as if it had been scattered out of form no longer.

Seeing his wife who continued to thrash, Reno finally released the grip of his hand.

Hilwa ran to her house with sobs and tears.

"What did your mother say, so Hilwa cried like that" the furious Dedi saw this incident.

He rushed to the living room to see his wife.

"What did you say to your son-in-law, huh?" ask Mr. Dedi who has been provoked by emotions.

"Indeed what I said, I just spoke as I was. If our daughter-in-law, can not give offspring to Reno" said Bu Tika did not feel guilty.

Dedi, who could no longer contain his anger, raised his hand to slap his wife. "Dad ! don't" stop Anita.

"Don't dad, please forgive me. I beg you" persuaded Anita

Mr. Dedi squeezed his finger, like he wanted to squeeze the face of his wife who had no feelings, had hurt his daughter-in-law repeatedly.

Bu Tika's face immediately changed pias, she did not expect, her husband would be angry.

Dedi passed from before them, wanting to avoid his wife. He was afraid that if he was still there, he would no longer be able to control his anger.

Seeing her husband passing away, immediately Bu Tika's cry broke. She was so shocked, just this time, her husband wanted to be rude to her.

Bu Tika's body collapsed and her crying became more and more. Anita and Stefani swiftly restrained her body.

"What the mother is guilty of, the mother only wants the best for the mother's son. Reno's only mother's son, she must have children. I want a grandchild from her." Bu Tika's roar was so bitter, anyone who heard it must feel pity.

Likewise with Reno, he who had been provoked by emotions just like his father. Now so feel pity, as his son, he could not bear to see his mother roaring weeping over his fate that has not been given offspring.

His heart was now indecisive, he loved his wife very much. But he also loved his mother very much. While his mother, still insisted on wanting to get a grandchild from him, which Hilwa could not give.
