The Retaliation of a Wife You Consider BARREN
Chapter 03

"Where's Rayya, Za? How not to come down? Your wife's dech habit, disregarding her obligations." Bu Hanum who had occupied the dining table again commented scathingly seeing Rayya not preparing food. Though all is available at the dining table and can be enjoyed soon but Bu Hanum still looking for the fault of his son-in-law.

"Rayya's having a stomach ache, ma'am, it's usual for the moon to come."

"What?" Between surprise and disappointment. Ms. Hanum who was so hopeful of the presence of grandchildren was made angry and immediately left the dining table to approach Rayya in the room.

Reza sighed heavily then ran after the mother who would definitely berate Rayya. Although lately his attitude is not as sweet as before on the wife, but still if his mother berates Rayya, there is a small part in his heart that does not accept.

"Based on barren son-in-law! No use to you! You have drunk a lot of herbs, to the efficacious though it does not make you pregnant! How would you love your father-in-law and husband if you alone cannot give offspring!" jolt Bu Hanum who suddenly came surprised Rayya who was curled up on the mattress with pain and lament fate, after arguing with the husband.

Now he must again hear the harsh words of the mother-in-law who was really angry after his efforts failed again.

"Sorry Mom," Rayya said by rubbing her tears. This time Rayya seemed fed up with the treatment of her mother-in-law and husband. He had been reluctant to talk much, just an apology that was thrown packing the pain he suffered.

"Sorry you're of no use Rayya! From today let Reza find another woman, because I don't want my son to be a bad guy for having a barren wife like you."

Again Rayya's heart was slashed to hear the words of another woman. She never imagined she would be pitted or watch her husband cheating, but now her mother-in-law supports that.

"Already Mom, let this be my and Rayya's business! You better eat and don't keep scolding Rayya! Later even Mother herself is sick."

"Sound you! What a bad boy is it, huh? He loves you so much but you can't repay him right." Hanum's mother turned towards her son with a disappointed look. "Why do you have a barren daughter-in-law like her, Reza?"

"Already! Let's go out Mom, I'm just as disappointed but it doesn't need to be that way. Mother's health number one, not because of this problem, Mother can no longer enjoy my hard work!" Reza embraces her mother and takes her out of the room leaving Rayya sitting limp on the bed.

Rayya smiled bitterly feeling her heavy destiny. Wanting to go home and complain but embarrassed with mamah and papah, considering that he was once banned but continued to lunge until blessing was given.

...****************...

This morning Rayya was tidy and prepared to leave. His intention was to visit the house of the Mamah because he missed him so much but his departure turned out to make Reza think of another.

"Where are you going to be so neat?" reza asked with a glance at Rayya's appearance.

"You go to Mamah's house, I miss her." Rayya re-applied her lipsticks after answering.

"You want to ngadu you? Dare to vilify me in front of Mamah and Papah, you will know the consequences of Rayya!" reza warned. It felt so stifling to Rayya, but the woman seemed to be indifferent.

After breakfast, Reza left first followed by Rayya who also left immediately after having time to clean the kitchen first. Indeed, all of Rayya's homework is done alone because since there is a mother-in-law living together, he recommends that more frugality.

"Assalamualaikum Mah, Dad... I miss you guys." Rayya ran in and immediately hugged her parents who were relaxing on the sofa of the family room. He sat between his parents so spoiled.

Rayya's arrival makes a surprise for Mamah who somehow since last night thought about it. Perhaps a strong enough mind makes the Mamah can feel the heartache of his daughter.

"Wa'allaikumsalam..." Mamah and Papah stared at each other with their frowns.

"Does going home parents have to report first?" rayya asked with pursed lips turned towards Mamah and her Papah alternately.

"Yes, not sich," said Mamah who then got a warm hug back from Rayya while the Papah just shook his head.

Actually Rayya was eager to cry shed all the sadness, destruction, and fragility of his heart. Even Rayya held tightness in the chest when the arms of the Mamah and Papah were more comfortable than her husband, who should be home for her to complain.

After lunch, Rayya is asked by the Papah to bring an important document that Reza must sign. Previously Tio who was going there but because Rayya came, he asked his daughter to bring lunch to Reza.

"Why am I sich Pah? I'm so lazy!" lamented Rayya.

" All of you take lunch to your husband who is lazy, or maybe you are fighting so you go home?" asked Papah Tio with a full glance.

Rayya gasped to get such a question from the Papah. He immediately got up from his seat and grabbed the prepared file.

"What the hell is this Papah, you can't have a bad feeling Pah!"

"Haiyah... You're suspicious!" sahut the Papah gaunty.

Rayya immediately said goodbye and went to Papah's office. She did not forget to bring lunch to her husband.Silus Rayya expands when all Papah employees welcome him warmly.

However, not with Mr. Hamzah, coincidentally the two met in the elevator. He greeted politely but his facial features were so nervous, making Rayya suspicious.

"Sir Hamzah why?" rayya asked with continued staring at the middle-aged man.

Mr. Hamzah is Papah's assistant who is now her husband's assistant. He seems to be hiding something that makes Rayya sure if something is wrong at this time.

"I'm fine Mrs Rayya, just a little surprised by the sudden arrival of Ms. Rayya. Is there anything or a deposit from Mr. Tio that must be conveyed to Mr. Reza Bu?" ask him because Rayya rarely comes to the office if there is nothing important that requires him to leave.

"Yes sir, Papah asked me to bring this file." Rayya showed the file to Mr. Hamzah.

"Let me ma'am give it to Mr. Reza, he's meeting right now."

Rayya frowned, he was quite familiar with Reza's work because before Rayya also worked as CEO in his Mamahnya company. The meeting was always an assistant next to his boss but why did Mr. Hamzah not participate.

"Oh let me wait in his room and the file I just give myself because I also bring lunch for Mas Reza." Rayya immediately got out of the elevator with a smile on Mr. Hamzah. She stepped first towards her husband's room with a curious heart.

PRAK

Dining places and files fall on the floor as Rayya's squeezed body sees something that leaves the woman glued to the doorstep.
