The Story Behind the Curtain
The Arrival of Zulaika

Erli laid her body on the soft bed, the woman's mind drifting thinking about her future with Rafan—the good man who took the responsibility of marrying her while pregnant out of wedlock.

Of course he was embarrassed not to play when he remembered the spicy words of the in-laws. Where he was being seduced by uncle Rafan himself, it is true that the man Handoko—big man who has a slightly distended stomach.

It is undeniable that Handoko has a face that is no less handsome than the nephew, but unfortunately Zulaika's sister has a very perverted brain. When Erli closed his eyes, his eardrum heard the sound of knocking on the door.

Gts ... Gts ....

Erli's mind that was creeping suddenly collapsed and his eyelids were wide open, Erli stared at the door using his tail.

Just disturb! erli was inwardly upset.

Slowly he got off the bed and walked lazily towards the door. The door was opened, seen Jafar's wife standing with a bent face.

"Yes naon Bik? What's the matter Bik?" asked Erli with a wobbly head.

Instead of answering Rasmi instead ordered his nephew, "Hurry out, meet your mother-in-law!"

The black soot came round upon hearing his aunt's command.

"What Bik?"

"There's Rafan's mother in the living room" he said softly as he glanced at the living room that was blocked by the parapet with the kitchen.

Erli's room was in the middle of the side next to the kitchen.

Oh God, is this my destiny? Verily I am not willing to part with my husband, O God, but what will be said if this is Your will. Inner Erli.

"Miss!" call Rasmi while shaking his nephew's body.

"Hem, what's Bik?" His frowning forehead responded to his aunt's actions.

"Hurry out!" His head looked at his iron face.

"Auntie first! Erli wants to tidy up the hair first," said Erli while closing the door.

Rasmi let out a long sigh and stepped her feet into the living room, where there was Zulaika waiting for Erli.

While Erli was standing anxiously behind the door, he really did not know what to do if his in-laws wanted his farewell to Rafan. Previously she did not have any feelings and she agreed to ask Rafan to get married because the man was forcing, but at this moment she was very objected even not willing to divorce her husband.

"O Allah, what should your servant do? The servant really did not want to divorce him, O Allah," he complained.

Erli's body slumped downwards until he sat on the floor, his flexed legs he used to hide his cute face.

For a few minutes he pondered and in the end Erli stood up and steadied his heart to accept all the destiny he would accept.

"Son, pray that your mother will accept your daughter's decision!" said Erli kalem and his lentic fingers stroked the cheek-friendly of the child.

Baby Al who was sound asleep smiled as if responding to the mother's words, after smiling the tiny baby moved his head even though the movement was not so significant.

"Oh my God!" erli said while pinching the small cheeks of his bulging son.

"Mother out first, baby!" he pounced with a heavy heart.

Before exiting the room Erli nodded and his hands clenched. Upon his arrival in the living room his head bowed in shame because he knew very well that his father-in-law harbored a very great disappointment in him.

"How's your daughter-in-law doing?"

The question that Zulaika asked made Erli aghast. His head that was originally bowed is now looking up at the intense face of the in-laws.

"Why is your expression so shocked?" Zulaika asked again.

Erli shook his head and presented a wry smile.

"M-sorry Mom!" Only that word can come out of thin lips' mouth.

"Why? Why are you apologizing? Don't apologize, honey!" cetusya while moving from his seat approached Erli who was sitting in a chair sebrang.

Erli returned Zulaika's shady gaze and said.

"Erli is sorry for Erli being Mom's daughter-in-law. Erli has deceived Mother and all other family members" Erli explained firmly.

Zulaika grabbed Erli's left hand and stroked it gently.

"Son, I'm sorry I kicked you out that night!" Zulaika put his palms together as a result of his actions that made Erli semkin not feel good.

"Mom, don't be like this!" prevent Erli while lowering his in-laws' hands.

"You should be angry with your mother and .. if you need to speak to your full heart!" exclaim Zulaika firmly.

Erli shook his head and hugged the in-laws.

"Erli had no right to do so, Ma'am .." Erli's words came to a halt as his eyes caught the figure of the man he so hated standing right in front of the door.

"Assalamualaik." Nodding after saying his regards.

Official stared intently at the man, the look in his eyes hinting at Handoko's presence was not welcome in Erli's small house. However, the man tried to be polite.

"Can I come in?" handoko asked with a smile on her lips.

Erli hurriedly replied, "Please!"

Rafan's wife looked intently at the man who stood by his mother-in-law's kadung sister.

Firmly and straightforwardly Erli questioned Handoko's intentions and purpose to course.

"I came here to apologize for all my bad deeds" he said more calmly than before.

Erli glanced at Rasmi who was sitting in the corner seat, Jafar's wife raised both eyebrows. While Erli nodded his head upwards as if asking for the opinion of the aunt of—, who has been meritorious in his life.

Instead of giving an official opinion instead of leaving Erli inside, the feelings of Rafan's wife grew increasingly riled up and worried about this problem.

What am I supposed to do? ask in the heart.

For a second, Erli cleared his throat neutralizing his emotions and the two began to open their voices.

"Erli will forgive Om Han, but Erli asked to keep a distance with Erli or Erli's child," Erli pinta in a very firm voice.

"I will try to make your request, thank you Erli for forgiving my despicable behavior!" handoko said with a clenched hand.

Netra the man glanced towards his older brother who was still sitting side by side with his first Erli—.

"Go home!" Zulaika chased away Handoko who was standing right at the exit threshold.

"But Ma'am!" said denied.

"Just go home! I'm sure Erli wants to come home with me," he said, staring into Erli's eyes.

their gaze also Sling met for a moment Erli felt awkward to see the look in the eyes of her mother-in-law who was very deep.

"May Erli ask?" Tilting his head when he asked.

Zulaika nodded and tightly grasped Erli's fingers.

"What did you mean by that mother?"

Zulaika was speechless, but the smile on her lips never receded.

"Mother asks with all humility." Zulaika exhaled her heavy breath, "come home with mother. I'm begging you, Er!" with a sad face.

Be happy? Of course, who does not like to get good treatment from the in-laws.

"How, you want to?" ask Zulaika to make sure.
