SUFFERING AN EMPTY SON-IN-LAW
A heavy decision

The atmosphere at Mr. Dedi's residence is quite crowded. Today they will hold a monthly 7th birthday celebration of their grandchildren. The show is still in the house of Mr. Dedi, because to this day Stefani has not moved to the house he wants.

Hilwa has been involved in several jobs. Although there are always whispers talking about it, whether it is mocking or trying to sympathize. But Hilwa didn't want to ignore it.

For this time Ms. Tika did not open her mouth to hurt Hilwa. His heart was so happy because it was only a few months away, the future grandchildren he was waiting for would soon be born into the world.

The show will soon begin. Stefani is in Reno's arms to sit in the middle of the attending study mothers. Again, all eyes were on Hilwa who was sitting some distance away from his family. "Look! his first wife was sitting in a corner all by herself. Whether she deliberately separated herself or her husband's family who did not care about her" said one of the study mothers.

"Yes, yes, it's so messianic. Though if you see, still looking forward to the first wife yes ma'am. But yes because of that, she said her uterus was empty." the mother's chimps next to her. "Eatingly a woman is not pretty enough and is fine. The proof, beautiful and good still they wasted." chirped the other mother. And they all nodded in agreement.

O mothers of the inhabitants of the earth. A woman who cannot give offspring is not her will. But it's destiny. Fate that inevitably they have to live. Didn't know the women were always sobbing in every bow. Do you not know those women feel heartache for your idle speech. Before this happens to your grandchildren as well, so stop demeaning a woman who has not or cannot give children.

But many of them feel relaxed running it. And there are many husbands who are faithful to their wives, even without a child in their midst.

The show's opening has already started the show.

Silent.

During several remarks he made to represent Mr. Dedi's family and thank all the guests who had been willing to attend. Not long the holy verses of the Qur'an were heard from inside the house and even heard to the streets as well, so many people were present.

While the event was still going on, the sound of the three-person car entering Reno and Hilwa's house. Slender. " It looks like Hilwa is not at home sir" Tini said. "There's a voice of people teaching sir. It looks like from her in-laws house Hilwa sir." added Bu Tini. "Yes, let's go there, ma'am." take Mr. Marna and Andre who follow them from behind.

The closer the place they were to, the clearer the source of the voice was heard. "It turns out right sir, the voice of the study was from our besan house. What kind of event is there, sir?" tanya Bu Tini but the one asked just put his shoulder.

"We'll just wait until the show is over. Then we went inside and met Hilwa." Might be Marna. They ended up sitting on a carpeted terrace.

For an hour they waited, the event was finally over. The mothers of the school have begun to disperse themselves with a box of food.

After all the guests were out. Only then did Marna and Tini enter the house. Andre was just waiting on the terrace. He did not want to go any further, afraid of another misunderstanding.

What a surprise, Mr. Marna and Ms. Tini, to see a woman flanked by her son-in-law and Hilwa's mother-in-law. While their gazes caught the figure of his daughter who was taking care of the remnants of garbage in the house.

"Hilwa's father's daughter. What are you doing, son?" ask Marna spontaneously. Everyone turned to the source of the voice.

They were all shocked to see the figures of the two parents they were very familiar with. While Hilwa, her hand reflexively dropped the thing she was holding. "Mother, father!" hilwa's eyes were perfectly rounded to see her parents standing at the door. How can father and mother come here, in times of this situation, Hilwa said in his heart.

Everyone who was sitting, finally stood up. Hilwa tried to move her legs to approach her parents. "What's really going on, son?" ask Marna to her daughter. "Sir, Ma'am, calm down let Hilwa explain" said Hilwa to try to calm down.

"Explain about all this. And who's the woman sitting with your husband?" flocking, Marna pointed towards Stefani and Reno. But Hilwa's lips were confused as to what she should explain to her parents.

Mr. Marna stared intently at the iron. "Don't tell me that your son has dared to wish my daughter." said Mr. Marna Sharp. "Sir, Hilwa please hold your anger first. And listen to father's explanation." said Hilwa. "You just want to hear yes or no!" yell, Mr. Marna.

"real sir. My son Reno is already wishing for Hilwa. And he's married another woman" said Mr. Dedi at last.

"Bad!, how dare you wish for my daughter Hilwa." now the sharp gaze turned towards Reno. The one in the face is of course fear. Just this time he saw Hilwa's father's gaze sharp like that. If he has no shame, he just wants to hide behind his mother's back.

"Then you Reno! don't be a coward. Face me, before you dare to hurt my daughter." challenge Mr. Marna. Reno who heard it even more frightened. Let him be stamped as a cowardly man or whatever. What is clear at this time he did not dare to face his father-in-law.

"I beg you to be patient sir" said Mr. Dedi trying to calm down. "Prophey! can you be patient if you see your daughter being hurt. You said, already consider Hilwa as your own daughter. But where is the evidence. Even you can't defend when misfortune strikes him." growled Marna sir.

Of course, that's how Mr. Dedi felt all along. He felt ill-advised to protect his daughter-in-law. He even forced Hilwa to stick with his son Reno. "I'm sorry sir." That's all Mr. Dedi can say. He felt that Mr. Marna was accusing him of being true.

"Let's go home son." take Mr. Marna to Hilwa. Soon Reno's eyes were round, although he was frightened but if Hilwa was brought by his father, he might never meet Hilwa again. "I beg you sir. Don't take Hilwa away." Reno kneels before Hilwa's father. Now his fear was gone, when another fear attacked him. He was more afraid, if he could no longer meet his wife Hilwa.

Mr. Marna chuckled to see Reno kneeling again as she was about to take her daughter away. "Wake you Reno. I don't want to see your false regrets again. Have you never done this before?" mister Marna asked, staring intently at her daughter-in-law. "No sir. I will never get tired of asking for forgiveness for the wrongs I have done." Reno replied softly.

"Then, you can explain what your mistakes have been. I want to hear it straight from your mouth." said Mr. Marna.

Reno could only bow. How could he explain all his mistakes now. That she fucked another woman and made her pregnant?. Ahhh no! how's this. Reno grunts in the heart.

"Obviously you can't say it. Because you're just a cowardly man who can only break a promise, without proof." circus mister Marna.

"How dare you call my son a coward. Keep saying you sir." sergeant Bu Tika approached the iron. "How could you still defend your son Ma'am. Obviously Reno has made a mistake" said Mr. Marna was not out of thought. "I'm not a hypocrite if my son makes a mistake. But it's because your daughter can't give my son offspring, so the mistake is not entirely in my son." said Bu Tika no less sharp.

"What is wrong if Hilwa cannot give offspring. Is that really my daughter's fault, Mom? ask Marna sir. "Oh yes obviously. Reno has proven it herself, she can have children from other women. It's obvious, isn't it? that your daughter has an empty womb."

"So, look, Mom. You better shut up!" mr. Dedi's orders. "How can they demean my son. Obviously his daughter who has a deficiency" said Bu Tika still do not want to lose.

"Can you shut up! Don't embarrass me any more. Obviously Reno is wrong here. You still want to defend her?" now Mr. Dedi was also furious with the attitude of his wife.

"Let's go, let's get out of here. You don't deserve to be here with people like them." take Mr. Marna who holds Hilwa's hand.

Mr. Marna was surprised to see Hilwa just silent petrified. "No sir. Let Hilwa live it in the moment. Hilwa wants to keep trying." declined Hilwa. "Hilwa, how can you live your days like this. you will not be able to son." said Ms. Tini who had just listened. " Hilwa just wants to try, how big is the limit of Hilwa's patience sir, ma'am."

"No boy, don't be like this. Let's get out of this house, by opening a new leaf. I'm sure you'll find happiness after this." woo Bu Tini. Hilwa still shook her head "sorry Hilwa Bu. Hilwa will remain until Hilwa's patience runs out. Hilwa please I can understand Hilwa's decision."

Instantly the body of Bu Tini limp, hearing the decision of his daughter who still wants to survive.
