Young Wife For My Husband
CHAPTER 18 What Regrets Does Amelia Feel Now?
Amelia arrived at her in-laws' house.
Now he is just waiting for the return of his two in-laws and brother-in-law who live one roof with them.
Two of Soleh's sisters did not come because they lived in different villages. They are not too enthusiastic either. Even a little confused at the wedding of their two elder brothers. Must be happy or sad. Especially after finding out that Amelia herself signed the marriage witness in the marriage book document Solehuddin.
To be honest, Fitra and Jamal felt the pressure of both their parents was so great on Soleh as the first brother.
Soleh is a good child for both parents.
Unlike the three brothers who are more courageous to issue an opinion not even infrequently defy the words of Mariana and Anta which they consider nyeleneh not in accordance with their logic.
Soleh tends to pamper his Father by assuring and obeying all the requests of the two parents who are unstable in his soul.
Just like Lani was with her husband, Tito. Lani even argued with Tito because of the problem of Soleh who continued to be the chat of his two in-laws who still like the strange.
Lani's upset, though, her husband who has not been able to contribute as a mainstay daughter-in-law actually sneered at the behavior of his Father's Mother whose eyes are duitan and considered to have no empathy and feelings because jor-joran match Soleh who clearly has a wife with son of an angkot in the village next door.
"Well how else? We have to defend Amel? While we ourselves do not have the power because we still live with Mother Father!" timpal Lani is also upset because Tito continues to corner his parents who are wrong.
"At least they should have empathy. Have another way of addressing his daughter-in-law who can not love offspring, instead of being arranged for marriage again with another woman! Then if I marry again later, and get a rich wife they will also be happy and happy dong provided I give you a deposit every month!?"
Plaques
Lani thumped Tito's back with maximum force. Angry for a long time because of the comment of the Husband who made him hang.
"Take courage! Nih, nih (Lani practiced the code of chopping with her fingers) Ta' circumcision eggplant! Wanna?"
Tito laughing. But immediately speechless because Mariana and Anta look like they just came home from his farm.
"Hayo, dare to talk in front of them?" ledek Lani widened her eyes.
"Sttt..."
Tito stuck his index finger over his lips. He told his wife to be quiet.
Such was the atmosphere of his sister's life before Soleh remarried to Juria.
Now Tito and Lani can only pray for the best for the next Amelia and Solehudin household after there is Siti Juriah, who is clearly younger and prettier than Amelia.
"Sir, I'm back there again huh? Lani and Cia are still there!" pamit Tito to Amelia who was already sitting on the living room sofa.
"Yes, Tito. Thank you, you've brought me here!"
Tito returned to the Jyrian residence.
He felt bad, but his wife and son were still there.
Amelia sits alone in Mariana's empty and lonely house.
Figura photos of Soleh's childhood with his three younger siblings became a meaningful entertainment for Amelia.
He remembered his Mother and Father who were in another village in the same city.
Amelia pulled out her phone from her small bag.
Looking for the name "Emak Darling", then trying to make a phone call. Until connected and heard the voice of his mother who sounded hoarse.
"Hallo's? The mak? Assalamualaikum..."
A tear fell on Amelia's cheek.
Her mother's voice made Amelia's heart yearn to cry in the arms of the middle-aged woman who gave birth to her thirty years ago.
"Mak... Take care of your health, Mom! Don't work too hard. Which father?"
...[.Your father's still on the road, rickshaw. Oiya, thank you. Please tell your husband, your sister Gaga can finally smile at the futsal shoes sent by Soleh. Tomorrow he's going to go to school in the subdistrict! Uhuk uhuk.]...
"Yes. Have you been on medication yet? Where's tia?"
...[.Hitherto. Tia joined bojone kuli ngored in the garden. He said it was good enough to add sangu money to Ardian school.]...
"Yes. Mak's... Have you eaten? Cook what, Mak?"
...[.Huh, Nduk! Heri had returned home in the afternoon with two packs of rice. Thank God, you can make it later in the afternoon Mother eat with your Father!]...
"Hik hik hicks... Mak, um,... Amel kangen Mom. Hik..."
Eventually Amelia's cries broke as well.
...[.Go home if you miss. But permission on your husband. If you live in Jakarta alone without anyone. Your husband could find another wife like Mbak Kartinah who likes to go back and forth without husband's permission!]...
I shed tears from Amelia's eyes.
He wanted to tell his mother, if the Husband is actually currently on the stage with his young wife when he rarely left to go back and forth back home to see his parents and four sisters.
Amelia could not help but endure the grief. Finally, he decided to part with the phone with his beloved Mak.
"Mak. Amel said yes, want to cook. Afraid of Bang Soleh coming home soon."
...[.Yes Nduk. Good cooking, huh? The man will be faithful if his stomach is spoiled by his wife. No need to find a restaurant and also always go home if his wife cooks well every day.]...
"Yes. Assalamualaikum..."
...[.Salam waalaikum.]...
Clik.
Amelia cried a hiccup on the bed in Soleh's bedroom while still a bachelor.
He did not dare to tell her the sadness of his heart. Unable to share the pain of his soul that must be an old wife.
Her marriage to Soleh was her own choice, on the basis of liking. Although at that time Mother and Father were not too enthusiastic because they saw the habits of Soleh who likes to wander, sleep late at night and wake up during the day.
They know Soleh who is a young man next door who likes to hang out in fishing not far from the garden where Mr. Kuli's mother ngored.
At that time, Soleh was still unemployed and Amelia was so young.
Soleh was 24 and Amelia was 19. They met, tied the rope of marriage and went to Jakarta with one hope, conquered the capital with a happy determination.
Ten years of wandering. Return to the hometown only once a year because the cost is quite large for the two of them to go back and forth. Not to mention the handrail money to give the nearest sisters and nephews around the parents' house.
Amelia always tried to understand the economic situation that is only a Housewife. Alias just raised her hand waiting for her husband's salary to be deposited with her.
That's why he doesn't want to demand much. Only prayer and hope that he always pray so that the Husband gets a much better sustenance.
