" Akifa let's go to sleep." Yumna cried out when she saw Akifa who kept running as if dodging Ilmi who was preparing to take her home.
" Mother, I can't catch a sister." Said Ilmi while entering the room.
Yumna let out a long sigh and then walked quietly towards Akifa and caught him.
" Hehe..." Akifa smiled.
" Baby boy." Yumna Oceh.
Yumna immediately cleaned Akifa's hands and feet and laid them on the bed.
Yumna began to write while giving Akifa a hand.
After writing, Yumna felt a very heavy drowsiness. Yumna put down her phone and closed her eyes.
Yumna who was napping was surprised by the sound of rain. Immediately Yumna came out to lift the clothesline.
"It's always like this, if my clothesline outside no one's screaming to call me because of the rain. But yes it is possible that they lifted their clothes long before the rain came."
Yumna argued to herself as she began picking up her clothes and bringing them into the room.
Yumna's head feels dizzy. That was obviously because Yumna woke up all of a sudden.
This is not the first time, the clothesline of Yumna was hit by rain and no one shouted about the rain.
However, if the clothesline other than Yumna was outside and it was raining, there would be many who would scream and say that it had rained. Or was already lifted.
Yumna tried to stay positive, although she had lifted a clothesline when it was raining heavily but the yuni was outside and there was no desire to call Yumna.
Day to day....
Yumna who will put Akifa to sleep, he first raised his clothes. Yumna did that so she could sleep well so that when the weather was cloudy and maybe started to drizzle, Yumna no longer felt worried because her clothes were already in the shade.
And strangely enough, every clothesline Yumna was in the shade there was always someone shouting and saying that it had rained. It certainly makes Yumna feel inferior.
" Is it because I don't have one?. Why is it like I am differentiated. Did I do anything wrong?"
No one knows the answer except the netizens.
Yumna then recalled some events where the residents of the boarding house planned to travel together, Yumna proposed to go to the beach. But others say if they get tired of going to the beach so they decide to go to a zoo that is discounted tickets.
Be Yumna just listening to the talk of the holiday plans of the boarding house.
Because the visit will at least spend five hundred thousand rupiah. A very big nomination for Yumna.
In the afternoon, when Ilmi was in front of her room, Ilmi saw that her brother was going to leave by car.
" Dad, I want to go with her sister. His brother wants to walk." Ilmi.
" No, wong you're not invited to come." Galang.
" Where are you going?" Tanya Yumna who had just finished washing Akifa's hands in the bathroom.
" Ilmi wants to go on the road with sister."
" Come on the road. I want to get in the car." Said Ilmi again.
Galang who had been outside had now entered after hearing Ilmi who continued to whine asking for a way to ride a car.
" Heh, you are the son of the poor. That's if you want to ride in the car to be rich." Ketus Galang's.
" Hiks... Instead, dad, if it's a real job to buy a car." Ilmi.
" Kok so blame dad, tell me who you're snacking on. Try not to snack. The money's in the canister to buy a car." Galang.
After saying that, Galang called his friend, it looks like Galang already has an appointment to go the bird race with his friend, evident after calling Galang out while bringing his bird with him.
" This father is why the bird race continues." Said Ilmi in a annoyed tone.
" There you sleep. Later that night I take you to the city park." Galang.
" Lied."
" It's sleeping there."
" Bad dad." Upset Ilmi then went into the room
Yumna just listened to their talk without saying anything.
Yumna is tired when talking about Galang who likes bird competitions.
Once Yumna also discussed about Galang ya almost every week, sometimes too often a bird race. And the answer is always the same. Than she played women better playing birds.
" I'm a bird race with my money." Galang.
There Yumna felt that everything was indeed Galang who arranged, meaning if Galang gave Yumna money, then the money should not run out.
If it runs out then Galang will be angry and there will be a debate between them.
But if Galang who spent his money for the bird race or something like that, Galang will not be angry because it is Galang who is looking for money. So he has the right to use the money for whatever he wants.
Fix means here me and my kids are just hitchhiking. Inner Yumna, every time they finish checking the cok about money.
" Hey, how come you're never outside the house again?" Mama Elsa asked through the window of Yumna's room.
" Hey."
Yumna got up from her sleeping position and opened the door.
" Out lo, it's hanging out with people."
" No ah, if I get together with them I don't know what to talk about. Because they always talk about things that are out of my reach. So instead of me just being quiet, I'd rather stay home and accompany Akifa."
" Yes, I myself if joining them is also mostly silent, because what they discuss is delicious culinary and also looks expensive. They also sometimes plan to go to tourist attractions."
" If you are able to go anywhere or explore culinary tasting every food you want to taste, while I. How to taste culinary, Gilang I take a walk never want. Except if Gilang himself who really intend to go for a walk. Then I could go for a walk and wash my eyes. If Galang does not want or does not want to go for a walk then as hard as I try to say will not take us for a walk."
" Road by yourself."
" I want that, but I don't have any money myself. You know how Galang gave me money. Do not be able to make a walk, to eat is still less less. Not to mention the bike that is always taken, sometimes Galang go home but come out again for bird races or fishing."
" Earang did not see it as looking for his own pleasure." Mama Elsa's.
" Yes, it's like that. If you come home from a bird race or fishing at night always ask for a massage, if I refuse then you will know myself and he will fight. And I said, Why don't you just stay home when you don't have a job. You know he just said he wanted to find entertainment so his mind does not stress because of work."
" Huh, just like my husband. You know our fate may be pretty much the same."
" Yes different, even though Elsa's father likes to be angry he nagged but he still wanted to go for a walk, right? so even though our fate is the same but still much luckier than you are."
" Yes, yeah."
" Now, the difference between our husbands is that, if your husband will still go even if he wants to talk all the way. But not with Galang, even though Ilmi whines to tears but if Galang does not want to come out then it will not go out for a walk. Sometimes I am also confused by what Galang thinks. He himself felt the need for entertainment due to the stress of work. But as if he wasn't thinking about his family, he's a bird race fishing game that's for whose pleasure? for his own pleasure, right.,"
" Try you are angry if you know Galang will be a bird race or fishing. Like I'm always nagging if Elsa's dad doesn't come home soon or comes home late from work."
" Yes, that's Elsa's dad. The Galang. If I get angry, he gets angry. As if he did not want to be arranged it was me who was arranged by him. Then what can I do?, if I keep going then I'm the one who's hurt. So I better shut up. And also about gathering with others outside, I sometimes feel inferior because I am a person who does not have. Plus my knowledge of culinary and tourist attractions is not as extensive as they are."
" Yes, but what's wrong with joining them who knows they'll take us for a walk."
" No, if they invite us, their expenses will certainly be a lot because they have to treat us right. Whereas if they make their own event and then immediately leave they do not need to spend a lot of money because there is already a boss who will bear the money to eat and also the cost of their trip."
" Yes you're right Yes I'll buy a car someday. Then I'll take you wherever you want." mama Elsa
" Haha, don't get too high if you hit. It will hurt later."
" Yes it's okay to shy fantasized aloft so that we do not stress thinking about the attitude of our husband."
" Yes, you're right. I also felt I should cry every night, and why is it that I'm always the one who gets hurt in this relationship."
" I also think the same sometimes, actually what our husbands think. Does He feel that we as women are usually just spending the money they love, they do not seem to want to know that the basic needs are getting more expensive."
" Yes, I've repeatedly told her that she asks where the shopping money is. But the answer always irritated my heart, like when I said the price of eggs went up. He casually said there was no need to buy expensive necessities."
" It is like that, just try to have your own money for sure you will be loved dear and spoiled by your husband. Like when I get severance pay from the company I used to work for. Elsa's father never even got angry with me again, but once my severance pay ran out. Then he will return to being a wolf who is always angry at every moment."
" Are all men like that?, hoping that his wife also works and has income so as not to rely too much on him?"
" I don't know why I don't think there's a man with such a character."
" Cheating can not be?, find a man who wants to accept us as it is and also royal will money." Yumna.
" Yes where there is like that, yes there may be some men who will be royal and want to make us savings but we also have to be willing if the man wants to sleep with us."
" Huu, if that's why we don't become prostitutes." Yumna.
" Haha, yes sometimes I also think it is good to be a prostitute even though it is played every day but always get money. Unlike this one, it has been in the genjot every day fussy financial anger. Makes me feel dizzy."
" Ah just the same, I sometimes even feel like a prostitute. Because I I dare ask for money after Gilang asks only me."
" Why did you ask him after doing that?"
" Yes, because only after doing that would crazy not be angry if I asked for money or said needs that have run out."
" Hmm, men are the same."
" I don't know, sometimes I also start to feel tired with the life I live."
" Same."
As Yumna and Mama Elsa discussed.
They exchanged their painful lives. However, no matter how bad the story that mama Elsa told, Elsa's mama's life was much luckier than Yumna's.
Yumna herself sometimes felt jealous of Elsa's mama's life, although the husband was very angry and often heard them quarrel. But Mama Elsa's husband can still make ends meet or whatever Mama Elsa wants.
Although Yumna knew that envy and spite were not good and should not be harbored by women.
But Yumna is just an ordinary man, plus from the first his life has never run smoothly like a highway.
So is it wrong that Yumna always envies a life that is far better than her. In this heart always hope to find peace and happiness in the household that has been built for almost 7 years.
I don't know when but Yumna always hoped that someday she would find happiness.
But what Yumna wanted the most was to be able to turn back the time that had passed. Remember the taste of fixing things so that the life of Yumna and her two children is not too like this.
