Trapped With The Jelita
False Happiness

"Oh, oh."

"Why Len?" Mama Riska who was sitting next to Ralen asked worriedly when she heard her daughter-in-law strangled and grimaced in pain.

"Ralen's lips bit Ma," Ralen argued while pulling his lower lip to check for bite marks by his own teeth unintentionally, however, they were in a dark place and there was only light from the big screen in front of them so Ralen felt it was useless to see the wounds he could not see.

They were in the cinema watching a movie by not forgetting to buy popcorn for them to enjoy the movie being played, but the unpleasant incident even made Ralen's lips hurt and would definitely leave a wound, he said, maybe soon his lips will be a canker sores.

"Dear ones, dear ones" said the in-laws, smiling.

Ralen nodded then returned to focus on the film that tells of the betrayal of the husband to his wife, making Ralen anxious and continued to grumble in his heart to curse the man who betrayed him.

Do not know why they choose to watch a movie like that even though there are many other movie options that they can choose.

Not felt the film that drained emotions and anxiety Ralen finally finished with the death of the woman.

"The end is sad," Ralen snorted dislike the ending of the film which even seemed to side with men.

He was upset and did not accept why women were always creatures at the disadvantage, can not fight?

All the way out of the cinema, Ralen's mouth rambled, which made the in-laws smile to see him.

"If Mas Sai is like you fight yes, you should not be silent like the woman in the film," said Mama Riska.

Ralen nodded quickly.

Of course he would fight back, he would not stay silent when he was hurt let alone be harmed in every way.

He does not like to be weak and oppressed, he is given his life by God certainly to do good also including to make him happy.

Of course he does not want to be hypocritical, as a human being he also wants to live a happy life, right?

"But Mama is sure your Mas Sai will not do anything strange behind you," said Mama Riska again, holding her daughter-in-law's arm.

"We'd better find a place to eat now, Mama's stomach is very hungry."

Mama Riska kept pulling her daughter-in-law's arm to follow her for a place to eat in the mall.

Both of them will enjoy the food that has just come when there are two women already standing not far from them.

Ralen who saw it suddenly did not move his hand still with the spoon that was in his hand.

"Mom." Ralen's mouth moved with a very soft voice.

There he sees the woman he really misses, the woman he cares about but also makes him angry at the same time.

The woman he wanted to meet but also did not want him to meet for fear that she would come back to say things he did not want to hear.

It's been a week and she feels her life is starting to calm down because there's no need to drain her brain and her feelings to think about her mother.

Thinking of the absurdly ridiculous request that made Ralen want to rebel but could not.

Mama Riska who heard the soft voice of Ralen raised her head and looked at the direction that now Ralen saw with her eyes slightly shaking.

"Hello Auntie."

"Oh hello." Mama Riska inevitably answered the greeting from the woman she had seen for the second time.

It was clear that he still remembered who the woman was especially the woman beside him.

Mama Riska displayed a calm demeanor that was very opposite to her daughter-in-law.

"How are you, ma'am?" Mama Riska stood up to welcome the arrival of her iron walk closer.

Mama Riska looks amazingly friendly welcoming two people who she knows she doesn't really want Ralen to see, from the expression Ralen shows now can be seen by anyone's eyes.

Whether the father-in-law was able to hide his feelings or was too good, Ralen did not understand what he saw now was his father-in-law talking to his mother and Daniya who even seemed to be looking for attention.

Looking for attention from your mother-in-law?

The corner of Ralen's lips twitched in disbelief as the pretentious Daniya instead embraced and hugged her in-laws body.

The woman had already snatched her mother, then now intended to snatch her in-laws as well?

"Crazy woman!" ralen's mind cursed and looked cynically at Daniya who was smiling disgustingly at him.

Ralen knew it was a mocking smile as she felt she had managed to get close to Mama Riska, the Mama of the man Daniya was judging.

"Darling, don't you mind if your mother and sister join us?"

Mama Riska's question made Ralen stunned from her composure.

Apparently what her in-laws talked about to her mother was an invitation to join her and now the in-laws are asking for her approval.

Ralen curled her tightly clenched lips and moved her head.

He nodded in agreement of what the in-laws said.

Actually, if Ralen refused, of course, Mama Riska would not force because in fact, she also only mince words on her body.

Surely He would not blatantly show dislike towards Daniya, right? especially in front of the busan.

Daniya looks fed up and unhappy to hear the call of love that Mama Riska made to Ralen.

He felt that he should be in the position of Ralen at this time, becoming the darling of a father-in-law who from his face alone Daniya concluded that Riska was the ideal figure in-law of all daughters-in-law.

This second also his hatred for Ralen was increasing again.

"Mom." Ralen tried to greet the mother who was smiling stiffly at him.

Why is it like this?

Ralen was confused exactly what he did wrong until his own mother was cold to him, did not say hello and only gave a smile that seemed forced.

If you don't want to smile, you don't need to smile!

Daniya had already poisoned her mother a lot, making her mother even reluctant to answer calls from her.

"Ah yeah? maybe because it is too happy because soon there will be grandchildren," said Mama Riska with a big smile.

Daniya clenches both of her hands behind the table, upset that she has to be reminded of Ralen's pregnancy and that it is the son of the man she likes.

Damn indeed!

"Not only happy, but it seems like the aura of pregnancy also absorbed into Aunt's body, is not it Jelita?"

Mama Riska spoke again and this time did not forget to involve her dear son-in-law.

Ralen nodded quickly not caring about his mother's gaze as if she wanted to skin him.

His mother was like an enemy to him, and Ralen hated it.

"Pregnant women always have an extraordinary aura, like a magnet that will continue to attract to come closer and give praise." Mama Riska again spoke and this talk made Ralen laugh inwardly.

Her mother-in-law as if she was showing Daniya and her mother that she became the favorite of the in-laws, really it makes Ralen satisfied and happy because her mother-in-law without being asked directly to be a protective fortress for her.

"Oh yes Cloud how is Auntie? we haven't seen each other in a long time." Daniya shrewdly instead turned the conversation to ask the married man who had repeatedly confirmed they had never been in a relationship.

"Wans? who's Cloud?" Mama Riska frowned showing a stupid face that did not know who Daniya was asking, even though she knew who the woman sitting next to her was referring to now.

Daniya gulped as if petrified, "Aunty, when in England everyone who knew her called the Clouds," said the woman who let her hair down.

Hair with the same cut as his son-in-law, I don't know who is following whom.

Mama Riska poked her lips, "very style use Cloud everything, even though it is better Ipul yes Len," for the second time asked for the opinion of the son-in-law.

"Ipul and Mas Sai, the call was much better to hear," Ralen said.

Mama Riska's mouth gaping, "ah right, Mas Sai is even cooler than any call, let alone the one calling is a beloved wife," said Mama Riska relentlessly.

If you have spoken and someone chimed really his mouth became very uncanny like a bird that is ready to participate in the race.

Mama Riska laughed and Daniya replied with a fake smile.

Ralen glanced at her mother who was looking at Daniya, a loving look that was like being hurt when her son could not say anything.

"Mom wants to talk to you."

Ralen frowned cluelessly as his mother looked at him and let out a voice.

Talkin? what else does her mother want to talk about?

****

Two children who knew each other sat facing each other.

It was never thought that he would be reunited with his former fiance, Hanna.

An ex-lover who she was disappointed and hurt because of what she did.

But isn't Hanna happy with her marriage? even she knew that she had lived in Bandung with her husband and son, but why was she in Surabaya?

"How are you, Hanna?" Ipul asked awkwardly, really he felt his tongue was like calling the name of his former lover who had just been silently looking down.

Not understanding what the woman in front of him was thinking, the Ipul knew there was a bruise on the recess of the woman's neck.

Getting that question even made Hanna bite her lips firmly holding back the pain and disappointment she received.

She comes to catch up with her ex-husband who has caused her son to die, intending to vent all the anger but she gets hit instead.

She was a woman and obviously her strength was incomparable to that man.

"Hanna?"

The sound of Ipul again sounded to make Hanna's body shake, the voice of a man who never even got angry let alone being rude to her made her want to cry.

Crying why it wasn't this guy who was her husband.

Crying remembering their story that ended tragically when he tried to accept everything that had happened but in fact God's destiny even separated them.

"I'm not okay, I'm married to the wrong guy."

Ipul jerked to hear the woman in front of him, a voice that vibrates also the body that rises and falls indicates the woman is crying.

"Are you not very happy.." Ipul did not continue his words as the woman in front of him raised her head, staring at him with both vibrating neutrals accompanied by already welled tears.

Hanna stared without speaking only tears that kept coming out to voice her heart.

She always shares her household happiness on social media accounts, showing everyone that she is happy.

But in fact it was just a falsehood, the household did not run smoothly did not walk happily as people saw.

At the beginning of the marriage she already knew that her husband often sleeps with other women behind him, very painful inner.

He wanted to complain but he had to complain where, he had no one even talking to his in-laws couldn't because instead he was the one to blame.

Hanna tries to accept her fate, trying to survive until her longtime husband does not come home and instead sues for divorce and takes her son away.

Hanna could do nothing when the ex-husband took her son to another city so she could no longer meet.

All Hanna could do was pray that her ex-husband would take good care of her son, but the hope and reality were even different, she heard her son fall from the second floor balcony of her in-laws' house.

Ipul's heart was also sliced, somehow he also felt the same pain as Hanna felt.

Could it be because of his long-standing relationship with Hanna or there were still remnants of guilt lingering in his heart?
