The couple had just returned from the market after they had previously gone to the tomb of Dinda's father, using Dinda's matic motorbike,a couple of husband and wife was flocking while carrying groceries containing vegetables and others as ingredients to make soto for them to sell tomorrow morning.Adrian did not deliberately invite Nabila.The little girl was sleeping when they left.
"assalamu'alaikum.." said Adinda when entering the house followed by Adrian in the back with a piece of groceries in his hand.
"wa alaikum salam" said Bu Lastri lirih.The woman is now sitting in the living room.He stares cynically at the groceries in Adrian's hands
"Nabil woke up?" ask Adinda.
"busy does not know" said Bu Lastri while looking away from face.
Adrian painstakingly managed his emotions.
ceklekk...
the door to Adinda's room opened.When out of the room and immediately embraced his mother.He looked fearfully towards the grandmother.Nabila had woken up from earlier,but he chose to lock himself in the room when he did not find his parents at home.Since he was snapped by the Lastri ma'am this morning, the little girl now did not dare to approach his grandmother.
"are you awake, baby?" asked Dinda while gently rubbing Nabila's head.
Nabila just nodded while looking fearfully at Bu Lastri.The view did not escape the sharp eyes of Adrian.He thought, do not do Miss Lastri do things that were not not not when he left Nabila earlier, he said,to make his son look scared like that.
"mama..mama where aja.." said Nabila softly with eyes that can not be separated from the lastri.Sedika woman just stared dislike at the familiarity presented in front of her....it should not be time to see a scene like this.
"mama abis from market nak..abis shopping"
"this morning it was ma..."
"this is for us to sell soto tomorrow dear" said Adinda.
Miss Lastri reflexes stared at Dinda.
"what are you selling soto for?!ndak...!no more selling...!"
"buk.it is the only search currency ibuk..."
"don't mind Din's mother..!no need to take care of ibuk..!just take care of your new family...!I don't need help..!" said Bu Lastri.
"bus.. please buk..udah...don't like gini again.Dinda sama mas Adri just want help ibuk.Kita want to make up for our mistakes"
"busy says don't do it...!!"
buughh....
Adrian throws a crackle of groceries in his hand violently,making the three women who were there turned towards him.The man who had been silent earlier as if he had exhausted his patience.He stared intently at the middle-aged woman.His daughter was made to cry, crying,in good greeting always answered with unpleasant.And now his good intentions help even rejected raw raw.
Adrian is learning to be patient for the sake of Adinda.But maybe now he has not graduated.He has been provoked by emotions with his sickening attitude in-laws according to him.
Adrian stared intently at the in-laws.Bu Lastri who witnessed it was shocked.Antara was afraid, astonished and disliked when Adrian looked at him like a lion who was about to prey on his victims.
Adinda released Nabila who was in her arms.He approached the husband who began to burn emotions.
"mas...already to the room yes..we talk in the room only"
Adrian still not flinching.
"mas..kita to the room dear..I beg you" said Adinda lirih with a begging look.
"maass..I beg you..."
Adrian looked at the face of the beautiful woman.Once again Adrian had to be patient.This is a test for him towards a whole and happy family with Adinda.
Adrian nodded.Adinda picked up the grocery crackle and took it to the kitchen.When Adrian went into the room with Nabila.
Adinda returned from her kitchen with a cup of coffee for Adrian, she then went into the room following her husband and little daughter.
Adinda gave up the coffee on the man who still looks upset.
"mas...maafin my mother yes." he said.
Adrian looked at his wife.
"do we have to give up Din?"
"mas..ini is only two days.we still have a lot of time" said Adinda.
"maybe it's me who doesn't pantes for you Din."
"maaass..ibuk is just still shocked, because this happened so quickly.I'm sure someday mom would accept you and Nabil" said Adinda.
Adinda's hand moved touching Adrian's cheek.
"patience in a moment, yes." he said.
Adrian smiled.He kissed Adinda's forehead and hugged the slender body.

Nightfall....

She knocked on the door of her mother's room.
"bus...eat first buk.." said Adinda.
Miss Lastri who was in the room did not budge.
"it's time for dinner, we eat together yuk" he said again.
Still no answer.
Adinda turned to the dining table, where Adrian and Nabila were there.Adinda tried to smile, she then approached the dining table.
"we ate three first yeah." he said.
Adrian and Nabila also nodded.Adinda began to take rice and side dishes for her husband and son....
doorr...dooorr...
The door of the house was knocked very rough.
"who the hell?it is not polite to gedor gedor house malem malem" said Adinda.
The woman then walked to the door of the house.
ceklekk....
door open.
A woman of lush stature with jewelry and thick make up stood arrogantly in front of the door of the small house.Dibelaknya there are two men with dark skin and look very strong.
"sorry..who are you looking for?" ask Adinda.
"Ndi's pastry?" ask her haughtily
(Which pastry?)
"my bus is in the room.What do you need?"
"oh..so you're the kid he said he said?where's mom..!it's time to pay the debt...!" said the fertile woman named Tuti.
"debt?" ask Dinda to clarify.
"mommy Tuti..."
The voice managed to make Adinda turn her head.Bu Lastri came out of her room in a hurry.
"nahh..this is the guy..!pay your debt...!" said Tuti ma'am.
"we talk outside ya buk" said Miss Lastri.Ia then closed the door of her house and invited bu Tuti to sit on a chair that was on the porch of the house.
Adinda glanced from the window of her house.The two women were involved in serious talks.Adinda was actually curious.But it seems that Miss Lastri did not allow her to know her affairs with bu Tuti.
She returned to her dining table.
"who's darling?" ask Adrian.
"not knowing the mas, his mother.I do not know" said Adinda.
"continue to eat it mas...!" said Dinda.
"Nabil, too, ate it in abisin yeah son"
"yes ma.." said Nabila.
They started eating, suddenly...
brraaakk...
The sound of the door opening violently made the three startled.Nwhen frightened, she ran to hug her mother.
"thud.don't buk..."
"koen kakean alesan..!!I don't want to pay..!!"
(you are most of the reasons..!!debt is not willing to pay)
Miss Lastri cried fondly to the fat lady
"bring the bike..!!" the order of Tuti's mother to two of his men.
Bu Lastri was getting hysterical.He even sat at the foot of Tuti pleading
"don't buk.it's got my son...!I promise I'll pay you tomorrow..!!"
"haw...!!it's tok..!!"
(hallah...by the way doang.!!)
The two Tuti bu's men were about to bring Dinda's matic motorbike, but Bu Lastri was as strong as possible to block it.
"don't sir..don't...!!"
"let go..!!"
"don't sir...please...!!"
Miss Lastri kept crying trying to defend her precious thing....
"what's this?"the baritone voice echoed.Making all eyes towards the handsome man who looks dashing with the blue shirt and black shorts.Adrian stood with a haughty look while putting both his hands into his pants pocket.Besides, he was,Adinda stood up while holding a frightened Nabila.
" sopo koen?" ask Tuti
(who are you?)
"i'm the daughter-in-law of this mother." he said while pointing towards the Lastri bu who was still resting on the floor.
"what's the problem until you have to make a noise at home tonight?" tanyakanya.
Miss Tuti smiled cynically.
"likely le...cemekek..!" said Tuti ma'am.
(somewhat handsome).
"your parents owe me the same!until now I have not been paid..!" said Mrs Tuti.
Adrian smiled cynically.
"how much?" tanyakanya.
"five million..not including the flowers..!!" said Mrs Tuti.
oh.so this woman is a loan shark, my sister.
Adrian raised one corner of his lips.
"Din..take my wallet baby" he said softly to his wife.
"iya mas.." said Adinda while nodding.He then lowered Nabila and rushed to his room.Nabila now switched to hug the father.
Not long after, Adinda came with a thick wallet in her hand.Make Bu Tuti and all that was there was wide open.It happened, once, very coincidentally,Adrian just took the money at Atm this afternoon.Make his brown wallet look fat filled with red sheets of money.
Adrian released Nabila and approached Bu Tuti, he took all the money in his wallet and handed it to Bu Tuti.
"this is enough?" tanyakanya.
Bu Tuti took the money sheet and then counted it in front of Adrian.Adrian looked cynically at the woman who was in front of him.The money given was even more than enough to pay the debt plus interest lastri bu.
Tuti smiles.
"enough" he said.
Adrian smiling smirk.
"heh....Pastri...!thank you to your daughter..!if there is no one, I have destroyed your house" said Ms. Tuti.
The woman then left the place.
Adrian turned around, smiling at his son and wife who were still standing in the same position.
"we continue to eat yuk" said Adrian.
Adinda and Nabila nodded.
"i'll give you your money back" said Miss Lastri.
Adrian and Dinda stopped their steps, and they turned to the woman who was now standing.
"i gave money to the woman was not intended to pay the debt mother.But I did it because I did not want my child and wife can not sleep well tonight" said Adrian.
"if your mother feels indebted to me, I do not mind if you want to return it.But if you can not bear it or feel too heavy, I do not mind if you want to return it,do not need to be imposed.Member that my gratitude to mother for caring for and raising a woman as perfect Adinda.Mespite I know it will not be enough."
"Adinda is more valuable than all the money I have" said Adrian sincerely.
Bu Lastri stared intently at the man.
"as you know le.. until now I am still not sure if you are a good man for Adinda!if you are a good man you should come here to ask permission from me and my husband before you marry Adinda..not now that you're married and after my husband and I died looking for Adinda until my husband had to lose his life..!!"
Adrian took a long breath.
"i know I was wrong buk..I'm sorry.It was my fault from the beginning.I'm sorry."
"if ibuk allows, I want to correct my mistakes.I want to make Adinda and ibuk happy."
"prove that you can indeed." said Miss Lastri and then went back to her room.
Adrian sighs a long sigh.Adinda grabbed the palm of her husband.He smiled warmly.Despite not yet got the blessing, but at least both her mother and her husband have all issued her unek.Hopefully after this the relationship of both will improve.
