Bitter Tongue In-Law
14. Meet Again

"Should you say such a thing in front of others? My mother's status is still your in-law, be respectful to her."

Arga followed his wife's departure to the room.

"respectful? Ever since I came here I've respected him, but look what he's done! Should I still respect him when he humbles me? Why don't you ask him to respect me too? Is it because he is older, I am young, I do not deserve that respect? Is it appropriate for a mother to say something like that to someone else? Try if the position is behind. Will you also be silent? You impregnated me. Did my parents insult you? Did my parents also curse, beat you no, right? Because what? Because they also realized that I was wrong about this too. I could get pregnant because of your interference. Do you think that I can get pregnant myself? Your mother always blames me, only I'm to blame for my pregnancy."

"Forget that I've had sex with you. The child you bear is not my son. Stop being rude to Mom if you still want to be here while you're pregnant. Don't forget, take care of yourself!"

Arga rejoins Bu Ningsih and Lia after giving a reprimand to his wife. This misunderstanding made Nuna weak. He was confused about what. It just crossed his head to go home, but imagining the faces of his parents he could not. He could not make them sad or burdened with his son who failed to become this person.

The day goes on, Nuna's courage towards her mother-in-law actually impacts the closeness of Lia and Arga. The courage of the young woman who was pregnant was used as a weapon and aji mumpung for Bu Ningsih and Lia.

Nuna's heartache widens as Arga begins to compare herself and Lia. The relationship between husband and wife is clearly untenable. Nuna seemed to lose her pride as she continued to relent for the sake of the integrity of her household. He has failed to keep his chastity, he does not want to fail a second time. He did not want this farewell to happen. As much as possible she survived and brought her husband back.

That morning, Nuna wanted to find another job. He had to find money for himself and his future son. Although he himself was confused about where to find a job. He kept walking down the street. Who would allow her to work while she was pregnant like this? Thought Nuna stroked her stomach which already looked puffed out.

Nuna looked at the tavern across the street, her heart wanting to go there, but her mind forbade. He was embarrassed and embarrassed to show his face in front of Bian. He sped up his path to get away from there immediately.

A few steps away, Nuna walked back. He looked to the right and to the left hoping there was a store, or whatever looking for employees. Instead of seeing what she wanted, Nuna saw a young woman standing on the side of the road focusing on her phone. The woman unknowingly stood a little away from the edge of the asphalt. And from the opposite direction Nuna walked, there was a biker who was struggling.

"Revelation!" Nuna managed to pull the woman's hand and she fell on the asphalt. He was immediately unconscious because his head hit the sidewalk.

"Jeez Mbak ... Maqf ... The nuna? What about this?"

Bianca panicked, there was no one walking that she could ask for help. The blood coming out of Nuna's head was getting more and more. Finally he took Nuna to the nearest puskesmas.

Bianca, who must immediately go to college, must contact her sister to wait for Nuna to wake up. It would be impolite to leave Nuna without certainty. Although he was already in charge, he had to at least say one simple sentence that was now beginning to be forgotten by most people.

As usual, Bianca who was as careless as Nuna was getting scolding first from Bian. He was just about to open. But he had to undo because of the carelessness made by his sister.

"You're the same he's the same, equally careless. Can't you cross the street?" As if dissatisfied with the scolding earlier on the phone, Bian again scolded his sister when he reached the puskesmas.

Brother Sister who rarely gets along it ends up separated with a condition that is equally upset.

Bian paused for a moment while in front of the room. His heart suddenly felt an uneasy beat.

I don't want to be in touch with Nuna. But why did anything make me meet him?

Bian took a deep breath and opened the door and saw Nuna who was still unconscious with the plaster on her head. He sat on the chair attached there and watched the woman's face closely.

I don't know how she feels or if Nuna isn't okay. He only felt that when seen from his face, the woman was still in trouble. Seeing this, he remembered what happened a few days ago. Where he was beaten all-out by Arga even though he had explained the true story. Did the man also do a physical blow with his wife?

Nuna opened her eyes slowly as Bian was busy and lost in thought. He immediately sat down because as he remembered earlier he was on the streets.

"Can't you sit down quietly? You surprised me!"

"Kok I'm here?" nuna asked confusedly ignoring the protest from Bian.

"Your head hit the sidewalk for saving my sister, and she took you to Puskesmas."

Nuna kept quiet remembering the incident. He immediately lowered his head and felt his stomach when he remembered that he had fallen on the asphalt.

Seeing Nuna's concern, Bian, who was sensitive enough to be a man, said, "Your relationship is okay. Thank you, I did not help Bianca. He could not wait until he realized that he had to go to college. So he called me to wait. Is anyone sick?"

Nuna shook her head softly and limp. He was tired of walking a long way, his stomach was also hungry at this time. The more here her pregnancy made her a little hungry in a short time.

"So your sister's name is Bianca? He delivered my bag after he got home from here." Discussing that made Nuna remember about Arga who said giving a small lesson to Bian.

"Bian, did my husband harm you? If yes, I'm sorry. You didn't come that afternoon, I thought you were...."

"It's okay. I didn't come here on purpose, when I was going to your house. Your husband comes with emotions, if I make it there the situation will be added runyam. Are you all right? Why do your eyes look like that? It's not the eyes of a healthy person" Bian said, looking at Nuna's pouchy eyes.
