The Household Ark
Lina in the hospital

it's still morning. Shanti takes care of all the housework immediately.she wants to relax when she gets home from the hospital later.

not long wait Mira also has arrived home.like the promise the other day he will take Shanti to the hospital today.

"Mom.I'll change clothes for a second..."

"yes. I wait in front. mother wants to say goodbye first with father."

"okay. "

Shanti headed to the courtyard where the husband was standing busy counting the vegetables that came in this morning.

"gold I go first yeah..."

"yes be careful on deck... Where is the Mira?!"

"it's still inside. it's coming out soon."

"it's slow down later on the road don't have to rush."

"yes, I'm going on."

"yes."

Shanti turned towards the house to pick up her bag.

"are you ready Mir?!"

"mum already. Come on..."

on the way to Shanti's hospital a little pensive. suddenly she remembered Rina and Max. Not that the wedding day should have been close."

"Mir. what date is this?!"

"the 30th, ma'am. Why?!"

"it's okay."

that was the conversation that came out of the two. Shanti was silent again for a moment, not feeling the car had entered the hospital courtyard.

he immediately went down and Mira followed them in.

it turned out that the queue wasn't too long this morning.Thank God he didn't have to wait too long if this was the case.

after registering and getting the queue number Shanti sat in the waiting room with Mira.

he noticed the passersby in the lobby.he accidentally caught someone he knew very well.

the person who had slapped her face a few days ago, though was a little curious about what Rina was doing in the hospital this early.but Shanti did not want to greet her even if it was just a small talk.

he looked around to confirm something. Did Rina with Max come here? but he didn't seem to find what he was looking for.

she turned her eyes away wanting to pretend not to see Lina, but it seemed too late already. Lina had seen it too now.

there was a sense of awkwardness when their eyes met a glance. Rina herself was also a little surprised to find Shanti there as well.

Rina slowly walked closer towards Shanti and deliberately sat down beside her. Rina momentarily glanced towards Mira in who was engrossed in fiddling with the phone in her hand not caring around.

"how's Shanti doing?"

Rina spoke slowly without looking at Shanti. now her eyes were straight forward like reluctant to look at her interlocutor.

"i'm fine."

although a little nervous Shanti tries to calm down, she does not want to provoke the attention of her son Mira.

"it's a pity that if you're okay, I wish we'd never see each other again!"

Shanti was silent to hear the words of Rina. she slightly lowered her head holding back the tightness that suddenly pounded her chest.

"wedding is just waiting for the day. I hope you won't mess it up, and if necessary don't have to come even if there is an invitation coming home."

"you're afraid that if Max sees me at your wedding he'll turn away.!"

although it is not her intention to aggravate the condition of her and Lina's relationship, but Rina's offensive words make Shanti a little stifled.

although yesterday he was silent despite getting a slap from Rina, but for now it seems like his patience is slightly disappearing.

Shanti has not contacted Max since the incident in Fila the other day, and instead Max seems to disappear in the swallow of the earth.

"listen Rina. Max was the one who always wanted to meet me instead of me, so don't blame me."

"she won't look for you again if you don't see her, but it seems like you're a less caressed woman who would be alone in a room with a man who isn't your husband!"

"keep your words Rina!"

Shanti subconsciously raised her voice not to accept with Rina's accusation to her.

"what's wrong, ma'am?"

Mira was surprised to hear her mother yell at someone. She turned her head and noticed the two of them.

it was very hostile atmosphere between his mother and the woman he did not know.

"there's nothing Mira. Mom will talk to your friend for a while. You wait here for a minute.!"

without waiting for Mira's approval, Shanti had pulled Rina's arm and led her to the end of the corridor that looked deserted.

"you should be self-aware.your child is already big and I don't think you should approach a single man like Max. let alone you yourself are still married.!"

Shanti clenched her hands holding back the emotions that had been in the crown. Hearing Rina's words made her feel even more furious.

"thank you that your relationship is just a matter that you don't need to remember, it's disgusting!"

Shanti had already raised her hand wanting to slap Rina, but as fast as lightning Rina held back and threw down Shanti's hand violently.

"don't expect you to slap me! you know, woman don't know herself!"

Rina moved away from the stunned Shanti. she paused for a moment.

"don't you see Max again.if it happens again I'll make sure you won't get your happiness again.not with Max or not with your family!"

Rina actually left after saying that, she did not care about Shanti who had been silent since.

Shanti was sitting limp on the floor.her tears were flowing without command.

he rubbed the rough tears on his cheeks.his chest rumbled as if he wanted to explode.he did not accept with everything that Rina said.

he clenched his hands tightly and there was a fleeting smile there.I don't know what he thought.he was like suffering from bipolar disease alone, briefly crying, then in an instant he smiled.

"mom's mom's turn soon!"

Shanti was surprised to find Mira who was suddenly at her side.she immediately got up and patted her buttocks.

"mom is okay? why sit on the floor?"

"mom's okay.too long chat with friends mommy became mom sitting on the floor because mom's legs ached."

Shanti tries as normal as possible to talk to Mira so that she does not suspect something happened to her mother.

"let's go back there."

Shanti walks ahead of Mira. shortly thereafter her madness is called.

after going through a series of examinations and a little chat with the doctor, Shanti was finally declared cured and did not need control anymore, even so she still had to stay away from spicy foods within a month.

after taking the medicine at the pharmacy Shanti and Mira immediately went home. Shanti had wanted to go home immediately and quickly rest her body and also her brain of course.
