After getting the money a few months ago, all his debts were in order. Including debt in the grocery store that was more than 500 thousand at that time.
Tanti started her life. He looked much better as he still had the rest of the money used for his efforts. He has also updated his fried noodle business with the addition of topping ayang suwir. Of course this makes Tanti have to add more capital. However, the business of selling fried noodles is still very quiet because most people cook their own village.
His anxiety grew even more when the month he had been determined to pay his debts was approaching. Tanti looks very confused.
"Mother why?" ask Firmly.
"Mother is confused, Guh. Soon he will have to pay off his loan. I don't have any money at all."
The deg!
This new family's trials keep rolling. Since receiving the loan money, all the living expenses of his children are guaranteed. At this time, Tanti had to go back to thinking about the installment.
"The money's up, Mom?" ask Indra.
"Yes. Mom paid for everything. The rest is not enough to pay."
Not because Tanti is wasteful, but the needs issued are not small. In addition to the school fees of his children, delinquent debt in other places was a lot. In addition to the needs of uniforms, clothes, shoes, and other purposes for both adopted children. Not to mention to pay for electricity, other needs if there are neighbors are being bothered, and for daily meals.
The grocery store is still a place to owe until now. After paying off his debt at that time, Tanti began to owe again.
Now, Tanti is confused. Not only will the grocery store collect its debts, but also the upcoming loan sharks. I don't know, what would the loan shark do to him? 20% interest and running interest if late pay will make Tanti can not wart. The money paid is huge.
Since a few weeks ago, Tanti who had closed her debt then owed it again at the grocery store subscription. After that, he never came there again. It was certain that the shopkeeper would definitely be angry with him.
While talking to his children, someone knocked on the door. They all look at each other. They thought it was Ari, but it wasn't.
Chequek!
Wait open the door. He saw that the owner of the grocery store was already standing neatly before him. Soon a big war will happen.
"Sir," said Tanti with a bit of surprise.
"Do you want to talk in front or inside?" asked the store owner when she saw Tanti stunned by the sight.
"Please come in, Ma'am!" tanti's orders. "Straight, Indra, you guys come in and prepare a drink for the mbaknya." Tanti did not want this conversation to be heard by her son.
"No need! I'm just here to collect your debt, ma'am. After paying the debt the other day, I thought you guys would be as easy to pay as before. It's piled up again, but you haven't paid yet. So, can you pay when? Don't keep going like this! I'm a salesman, not a social activity."
Gluey!
To be honest, it was very painful when the store owner said social activities. He also didn't need anyone's help, but the word immediately pierced into his heart.
"Sorry, Ma'am. If there is no money today. I promise you that one or two more weeks will definitely be paid."
The owner of the grocery store seemed reluctant to respond. Tired of the promises she made with her children. Sometimes Teguh or Indra also owe there. His debt record was also made one.
Gluey!
It fell down the stairs. That's how Tanti feels right now. Even capitalized on trust if it is believed to ignore, the grocery store owner can be angry.
"We'll do it, ma'am. We ask for another grace period" Tanti said.
This is the last move that can be conveyed to the store owner. Then, so upset the grocery store owner left Tanti's house without permission. Already owed instead of paying even still give promises that do not know when can be ascertained.
That incident was apparently not the end of everything. Day H scheduling for installment payments that have been due to loan sharks is also time. Tanti's anxiety is becoming more and more. He did not know if he could give the money as agreed.
Tanti's anxiety increased when the loan shark came to her house. The atmosphere of the house that initially looks ordinary, in fact looks increasingly heated. Today coincides with the holiday of his two children so they accompany his mother at home.
"Your mom's here?" ask the loan shark to one of his children.
"There was. If you can tell, what is the need?" asked Indra who did not know that the person in front of him was the loan shark.
"Tell him, I want to meet." Rentenir was not immediately welcome to go in to see his mother.
"Wait a minute! I'll call you."
Indra went into the house to call her mother. He just said that there were guests waiting outside. Tanti's heart rate is getting more erratic. His feelings are getting more anxious.
"Yes, I'll see him."
Tanti saw the loan shark was already standing right in the doorway. His sharp gaze made a horror. I don't know, what's gonna happen next?
"How's it?" ask the loan shark. "It's overdue for payment. If you can't pay, by agreement, I'll take this house!"
Gluey!
I can't breathe this time. Is this the end of his life struggle? He's so limp.
"Give me a time!" pinta Repellent.
"Woah, you are amazing, yes! Supposedly before I owe it, Madam Tanti must think about the risks that will be posed. If you don't want to be confiscated, don't owe!"
It does. If her husband still wanted to take responsibility for himself and his children, this would never happen. His household was destroyed, his trust was lost, he could not pay the debt, and today his house must be confiscated. Tanti could do nothing else but surrender.
"Mbak quiet? Agree or not, let's empty this house! As we agreed."
Tanti finally gave up. This is the risk he has to accept. She breezed inside to ask her two children to get ready and then left the house.
"Strictly, Indra, forgive Mother who has made you trouble again and again. This time we have to get out of this house that has been confiscated by loan sharks. You're okay, right?"
Of course their heart was torn. But how else? It is hard and happy that they will go through it together. The decision to vacate the house must be done quickly because the loan shark does not give a grace period anymore.
