The Ugly Wife's
Ibu

Asyifa woke up from her sleep because of the ringing of a cell phone that rang constantly.

He thought of the phone but when he saw the name of the caller that appeared on the screen, he immediately put it back with a feeling of lackluster.

Asyifa prefers to walk out of the room to prepare breakfast for herself and her two best friends, rather than answering the phone that continues to ring.

While Asyifa was busy cooking, Angel and Mira came out of their respective rooms simultaneously.

"Have you woken up, Fa? What's cooking today?" angel approached Asyifa to help her.

"I make fried rice, eat simple well for breakfast"

"It's good, I helped wash dirty cookware"

"Thank you Ngel, I prepared the dining table first?"

"okay"

Mira watched her two best friends at work while sleeping on the living room couch. But a second later, he stood up as if remembering something.

"I have to call the restless man for damages!"

"Geez Mira, are you seriously going to ask for compensation? Udahlah, anyways my car just blisters a little"

"You blisters a little or a lot, still he has to take responsibility, Ngel! Anyway I'll keep calling him for damages!"

"What's really going on? Your car is scuffed, Ngel? why can?"

"Yesterday on the way back to the apartment, my car was hit from the back of each other's car so it was a bit scuffed, Fa"

"Geez, but you're okay, right?"

"No Fa, we're both fine"

"Thank God that's it. Let's have breakfast, here's the table and the food's ready"

Asyifa sat at the dinner table followed by Angel, but not Mira. The girl was busy looking for something among the pile of dirty clothes that were in the basket, next to the outside bathroom.

"Search what, Ra? Very busy anyway" asked Angel who began to be anxious to see the behavior of his best friend.

"Where was the shirt I was wearing yesterday? How come it's not in here?"

"Yes blue shirt?"

"Yes, Fa! You see no?"

"I think it's in my room, on the chair. Yesterday I just had a chance to take dirty clothes in your room, but forgot to put in the dirty laundry basket, instead I took it into my own room"

"Yes, I went in and took it myself, Fa"

Without waiting for an answer from Asyifa, Mira without hesitation immediately entered the room and began to search for her clothes among the clothes on the chair.

He had just found what he was looking for and was about to come out, but his steps stopped because of the loud noise from Asyifa's phone on the table.

"Asyifa, your phone sounds! Got a call from your mom, I'll help you pick up?"

"Yes, Ra" replied Asyifa subconsciously, but she suddenly looked at Angel's worried face.

"What's up, Fa? How come your face panics?"

"Ngel, did Mira say who called?"

"Your mother" Angel replied with a plain face.

Asyifa ran quickly into the room "MIRA, DON'T LIFT!"

But late. When Asyifa walked in, Mira seemed to be busy talking on the phone with someone.

"Yes ma'am, Asyifa is here. You want to talk to her?"

"Yes Mira, can you help me talk to her? It's been two months she never wanted to pick up the phone from mom, but there are important things that you should talk to her about. Please, Mira"

"yes ma'am, be patient"

Mira turns around and finds Ashifa with her anxious face standing at the door, and Mira realizes that she has made a mistake by answering the phone.

"Ah, ma'am, I'm sorry but..."

Asyifa soon took control of her and unable to bear to see the confused Mira, Ashifa took over her phone from Mira's hand.

"Hello ma'am, what's wrong?"

"ASYIFA! YOU'RE NOT SANE YET, ARE YOU? DON'T BE INSOLENT!" raung Laras from across there.

"Don't yell ma'am, just talk as usual. Asyifa listen!"

"Send mom thirty million, right now!"

"What's? thirty million? Asyifa doesn't have that kind of money ma'am!"

"Mom doesn't want to know! It's your own fault that you didn't send mom money for two months straight, the phone mom didn't pick up either. You bastard!"

"Asyifa's busy mom. There are many problems, jobs and calamities that Ashifa goes through here"

"Oh, you don't have a lot of excuses, Fa! Anyway send mom the money today, otherwise I'll find your address there and come to you! Understood?" said Laras without any pity.

"Yes, Ashifa understands ma'am"

"Sorry, Fa" said Mira, feeling guilty.

"It's ok, Ra. Either way, I definitely have to face my mother"

"Are you going to send the money? You must be firm, Asyifa, you can't continue to live with the shadow of your mother who doesn't care one bit about you, and just asks you for money at all times!"

"I will send you the money, but this will be the last one, Ngel. Like you said, I can't keep living by my mother's request"

"But how?" ask Mira worried.

"You two take it easy, I've got my own plans"

*****

"I want to move!"

"Moved? What do you mean, move?"

William glanced at the face of the girl who had become his lover with a look of wonder.

This afternoon they had just finished dating and were in the car he was driving to Ashifa's apartment.

"I want to move from my current apartment to another one"

"Why? Did you have a fight with Angel or Mira?"

"The three of us were fine, but my relationship with my mother wasn't okay"

"What's the problem? Tell me something"

"As usual, my mother's problem with me is that there's only one money. This morning my mother called to scold me for two months not sending her money and finally she asked to be sent a larger amount of money than usual"

"This time how much did your mother ask for?"

"Thirty million. Maybe for you it's a small number, but for me it's a big number!"

"Yes, I understand, baby. How about I help you with my money?"

Asyifa turned to look at William's face annoyed "Will, I'm telling you this not so you want to spend your money on my mother!"

"I know, Asyifa. I just want to help you, that's all"

"No, I sent the money this afternoon with my savings"

"Did your savings account decrease a lot? Do I want to transfer money?"

"Well...! Stop the car, I'm going down!" assyifa was angry.

"What's wrong? You want to come down here now, but your apartment is still far away dear"

"I said stop, William!"

Seeing Asyifa take off her seatbelt, William realized that her lover was angry.

"Okay, we stop but not here. I'm gonna stop the car at the park" point William at the park not far from the highway they're on.

Asyifa just kept silent not responding to William, until his lover's car was parked in the park.

"Do I look like a girl who's really expecting your money?"

"Good God, I've never seen you like that!"

"Then why do you keep offering me your money? I'm telling you all this so you can help me find a new apartment for me, not so you can give me money!"

"All right, all right, baby, I get it. Why did you have to move apartments? Didn't you say you sent money to your mother?"

"The color I don't want to live follows all of mom's requests anymore, and that money is my last money for mom!"

"Are you sure?"

"I've thought about it over and over again, and now I feel so sure! I don't want to be an ungodly child, but all my life, my mother has robbed me of all my hard work without caring about my condition which is her biological child. I cape life like this on, Will!" obviously Asyifa while sobbing.

William hugged the weeping body of Asyifa, trying to comfort her.

"I understand, baby. Do it if that's what you want, I'll always support you"

"Thank you Will"

"Together"

Asyifa let go of William's embrace and looked at him seriously "Help me find a new apartment before next month, because I have to move out of my current apartment immediately. I'm afraid my mother will follow me to this town"

"All right, I'll help you find it. But on one condition, let me pay the rent. At least until your finances stabilize, okay?"

"But William..."

"I beg you, let me help you a little" William said, cutting Ashifa's words.

Asyifa who saw William's heart-wrenching face and earnestness, was finally only able to nod in resignation.

"Thank you very much, Will" said Asyifa, looking almost crying again.

William pulls Ashifa's body into his arms "Sama-sama, dear"
