My House of Resilience
Chapter 21. Wife Taste Widow

Since the presence of Ari's family who always forbid divorce with Tanti the other day, until now Tanti still lives with her parents. Said his father-in-law would redeem the house that had been confiscated by the loan shark. To this day, there is no news of the house. Tanti no longer cares.

After struggling in the kitchen, because while at his parents' house, Tanti felt alive hitchhiking so he knew enough about what to do. Every day he who cooks, cleans the house, occasionally goes to the market to shop to fill the contents of his small shop. Although not much profit was obtained, but he was grateful. At least there's still money in his wallet.

"Wait, you don't want to cancel your divorce plan?" asked Sarinah when she saw Tanti moving her homemade sour vegetables to the dining table.

"Mom still doubtful about Tanti's decision?" askalanya.

"It's not so, Nduk. Your father's right. Ari's parents are right."

It hurts to be Tanti. Everyone seems to not allow divorce. It is true that God hates divorce, not that it is forbidden. The case experienced by Tanti had tried to be patient, but Ari was never willing to change and then improve things. The more days his attitude became worse.

"Where is it, Mom? Is it true that we can't get divorced?" tugut Tanti's.

Sarinah does not understand her daughter's condition. The discussion in the morning will never stop. Luckily Teguh and Indra quickly stopped their debate with his presence at the dinner table.

"You have breakfast first! Don't forget to help your mother for a while before you go to school" Sarinah said.

"Okay, Mbah," he answered.

I am so grateful to be at her parents house. At least the food for his adopted son was more assured than just being with him first. In the past, there were no days to eat without a noodle menu. This time it is more varied with the menu. Sometimes achopper with salted fish. Sometimes also vegetable decoction of ketela leaves with tomato sauce.

"Straight, Indra, what's your tuition? Is it paid off or is there something to pay?" Tanti is worried that her son will experience the same thing as before.

His two sons looked at each other. Instead of answering, they both looked confused.

"Nothing to pay anymore, ma'am. They said our dues were all paid off."

The deg!

Did anyone else pay the dues for her two children? Tanti had to ask her teacher this.

"Who paid for it, Guh?" ask Tanti to her oldest child.

"Thank God, ma'am, thanks to our patience, the school finally gave a scholarship. So, you no longer need to be confused with us," explained Teguh.

Feels relieved. At least his adopted child can still enjoy education without dizziness as before.

"Yes, breakfast first. After that, go to school. Don't be late!" order Tanti before leaving her two children to take care of her shop. Since filing a divorce lawsuit with the court, Tanti's mood began to improve. Even if her husband's family refuses, it's her son's fault. Tanti will continue to move forward and not back.

Every morning, the merchandise in the form of basic necessities, vegetables, and side dishes are more lined up in front. It was borrowed from his parents. If as a child, everything is free to ask. Since becoming the wife and daughter-in-law of others, the money obtained from his parents was two choices. Debt or giving. Obviously Tanti could not bear to ask for free. His decision to marry must certainly make Tanti can distinguish between right and wrong.

Yes, the capital used by Tanti is currently a loan of money from her parents. Although in fact they are determined to give for free, but Tanti does not want to just resign. He considers the money used by this business is a debt that must be paid.

"Sir, you look different today" said Sarinah.

"Let's be happy, Mom. My son got a scholarship. It's like getting durian collapsed."

Sarinah happy. Tanti began to rise from her slump. Even though he got such a small thing, he was more grateful.

"Mom doesn't have to apologize. That's-"

Tanti's words stopped when her two children were about to experience her.

"Bah, Mother, Teguh and Indra went to school first," said Teguh. Indra followed behind him.

"Be careful on the road. The pocket money is already?" ask Tanti. Although not much, but enough for the snacks of his two children. They each got 5000 dollars.

"Thank you, Mom."

"Truly learning" Sarinah said.

"Yes, Mbah." The two children then waltzed away after greeting one by one.

"Mom's had breakfast?" tanti asked when she saw her two children had gone away from view.

"Later. Wait for your father to come home!"

Every day Hardiman went to the fields. Although not large, but the rice field was treated well. In the past, before Tanti married, the rice fields owned by Hardiman a lot. Slowly reduced. The last time Hardiman sold it was for a wedding party for his youngest daughter, Tanti.

After cleaning up the merchandise, Tanti again took a broom to clean the entire house. However, his activity came to a halt when the sound of a motorcycle harassed him. Not the sound of his father's motorbike, but Tanti understands very well who the sound of the motorbike is.

The sound of the motor stopped right in front of the courtyard of the house. The owner came down and knocked on the open door. Although as the daughter-in-law of the Hardiman family, Ari did not immediately enter the house to maintain his manners.

Tanti is reluctant to approach the man, but her relationship is still not divorced.

"Assalamualaikum," said Ari when he saw the appearance of Tanti. He believes that Tanti is still at his parents' house. Seeing the merchandise left a little in the store made Ari smile.

"Vaalaikumsalam. Who's it gonna look for?" answer the ketus.

"I'm here looking for you, Dek."

Tanti had not even invited her husband to come in. While Sarinah who realized there were guests immediately headed to the living room. Sure enough, he saw the child and his daughter-in-law still standing. Ari stood right in the doorway, while Tanti was in the middle of the living room staring lazily at Ari.

"Sir, your husband was told to come in first" Sarinah said.

"Make what, Mom? Adding more heart wounds, Tanti? He must be here to find an excuse for Tanti to drop the divorce, right?"

"I'm here to fix the relationship, Deck. Let me in, "pinta Ari.

"Sir, let your husband in. You're still his wife. Don't forget that. It is not proper to let your husband wait" his mother rebuked.

"Yes, Mom. Wife sense widow," Tanti refuted.

Ari looks embarrassed to face her mother-in-law at this time. However, his intention was to come here to try to improve the relationship as his mother and father had said. Ari can't get divorced from Tanti.
