Chapter 15 Two Humans Do Not Know Themselves


"Thank God you're home, De. Mas already miss you at all." said Mas Danang when he saw me just got home. He got up from the couch and came up to me and brought me the things I was carrying.


"Mom misses you too, son. You are healthy right?." said the mother who followed Mas Danang behind and hugged me tightly.


I smiled to see the two welcomes in front of me.


We went into the house, my hand held by Mom. While Mas Danang walked in front of us by carrying my luggage bag and put it into our room which is next to the family room.


"You must be tired, I'll get you a drink first. You sit on the sofa with Mom." said Mas Danang again when he got out of the room and passed to the kitchen.


Mom and I sat on the sofa.


"How's your Mama doing, son. Your mother is healthy, right?." asked Mother softly while looking at me.


"Alhamdulillah... She is healthy, ma'am." I replied briefly. My eyes were straight ahead staring at the photo I was about to smash. A photo I will never recall after destroying it later. Our wedding photo is displayed in front of this sofa.


"Riss...Ehumm I want to ask for money and groceries for this month dong, son." said Mother-in-law while making me turn.


I've guessed what Mother-in-law wants, and it's been common for a long time. I used to volunteer to give you what you needed, now don't expect Mom!.


"Sorry Mom, Riska doesn't have any more money. I know that Mas Danang gave only 1 million and five hundred. That's what I've shared with two mothers." I put on a face. I decided not to give any more money, because it was not my dependant.


"But you still have a lot of savings." Even Mom didn't give up.


"I'm sorry, Mom, I don't have money at the moment." I'm not lying, what I'm saying is right, I don't hold money. But my money is in my wallet.


"Your saving is so much Ris, you don't be stingy the same in-laws." I glanced at him.


"Who is stingy Mom, all this time I have always supported the cost of living Mother. Even though your child never gives a living? if you need money, sell your jewelry, bracelets, necklaces, rings. Just sell it all. From now on, I have to get used to living independently. Do not constantly rely on children and daughters-in-law. For not knowing how the son-in-law's attitude in the future." My chest goes up and down because it's holding back the emotions that are in here.


"Mother's jewelry will never be sold. What people say is that you sell jewelry. This is my savings in old age." said Mother grunt. It's selfish of this old woman.


"Didn't you need money right now? if you don't want to sell jewelry, it's no problem. What you need is me not Mom. The decision is in Mom's hands." I threw my eyes away in the other direction, I was caught off guard by all of this.


What is my heart and mind made of? He was heartbroken and heartbroken at me behind, but had no shame in asking me for anything. I really don't think it out.


All this time I was too pampering him until he had a shameless nature and did not know himself. Precisely he is the stingy, the definition wants to always meet the needs of his life but does not want to sacrifice. He has a rice field. Although not broad but the results are enough for Mother to save her old age guarantee because to eat and others, I always suffice her.


"What is this storm?." Mas Danang came from the kitchen to get me a glass of water, but why so long?. Maybe he just told his young wife that I'd gone home.


"This is Loh Nang, your wife does not want to give money and groceries. Mom needs money. All my needs are over." Mother looked at her son with her eyes wide.


I was waiting for Mas Danang to respond when his mother complained.


I was silent on the seat with my eyes constantly following the man's movements. Keep a glass of water on the table.


Mas Danang took out his wallet from the back pocket of his pants. Then, ten pieces of red money he put to his mother.


"Oh my God, thank you very much, Nang. Hope your recovery is good. All your wishes are affirmed." mother's prayer with sparkling eyes. He took the money lying on the table. The next moment he kissed the money. I don't know what he meant to do that.


"But, this is not enough, Nang. I'm gonna need a shot," Sumringah's face is back dimmer the founder.


"That's easy, Mom. Riska'll get it at the store. Dear?." said Mas Danang looking at me, I replied with a wink. It's good, you think I'll obey what you want? No!.


"Ris, you don't go again so you can sell again. Already know more advanced sales even in staying-dwelling." Mom hired me because she didn't love what she asked for.


I didn't respond to his words. Who is he to rule my life? It used to be advice or input Mom never had me about but now it's going to change.


Seeing that I didn't respond to her words, Mom came home immediately.


***


Now we both live here, honestly the situation and atmosphere like this I no longer want.


"Darling, Mas kangen." Mas Danang was already beside me, on the bed. He approached me, I immediately shifted this body. Where my body will be plastered by a traitor like Mas Danang.


"Sorry, Mas. I'm on M." Let him interpret another. That's a term that is often used to refer to menstruation, even though my M here is lazy.


Hearing my answer, the look on Mas Danang's face changed instantly. Disappointment was clearly on his face. But I don't care about that.


"Honey, Mas want to say something" he said after he had mastered the situation. Look at my face with care. Then both of my hands were pulled in his hands.


"What is that?." I pretended to be enthusiastic about hearing it.


"Mas asks for 50 million in business capital. Yesterday Mas in tawari friends to be invited to business together. But it's a condition that there should be 50 million money. I want a minjemin, honey."
