The Household Ark
Mother's House
monday as usual is a busy day and so much activity.
back and forth alternating people who do their activities.
but not with Shanti this morning, she was just sitting by the window watching the people who were passing by on the street.
there was no meaningful activity this morning.it bored him and it felt like he was in prison.
after her children went to school and her husband was also active in the warehouse, Shanti just sat down to think about how she was going to be.
although she was impressed by her husband. but he is also sometimes stressed because of activities that are just that and he also rarely met his friends or relatives so that makes him not have friends to talk and share his complaints.
"did I just go to mom's house.it felt like I missed you..."
he said in his heart. Last week he did not visit his mother because he went to the hot spring.
so he thought he wanted to visit his mother today, he just wanted to see if she was healthy and talk to him a little bit.
"i'd rather have permission first with Mas Ridho..."
Shanti also does not want her husband to be suspicious or misunderstood for his departure to his mother's house.
she grabbed the HP she just bought yesterday after returning from the hot spring.
although her husband was in the warehouse in front of her house, but Shanti still did not dare to go to her.so she only dared to call her.
tuu...
after the second ring, the call is connected.
" mas can go home for a while no one wants me to talk about..."
......
" it's okay..."
tuuut. bconnection disconnected.
Shanti immediately moved from her seat and headed to the room to change clothes and get ready because she had decided to go to her mother's house.
"Shan's.... Shanti..."
after coming home to Ridho's house immediately looking for the whereabouts of Shanti. he approached Shanti who turned out to be in their room.
"yes, I'm changing clothes"
"changing clothes?! where are you going?!"
"gold I want permission to go to mom's house"
"loh why?! is mom sick?!"
"didn't mas. I miss the same mom. it's been two weeks we're not there mas..."
"yes anyway. we yesterday did not stop by the mother's house. because Meri already looks tired.because mas kasian if still have to stop by the mother's house."
" that's why I want to go there. I also want to see Dona said she is now pregnant mas..."
shanti's mother was originally living alone in her house because all her children already have their own family and home.
but for two years now there is a nephew Shanti who is the son of Shanti's eldest brother who lives there with her husband.
after marriage they decided to stay with his grandmother because in addition to them do not have a home, the brand also pity Shanti's mother who is a nenekny that if you have to live alone in his old age.
"wah the good news is. yes you have been careful on the road yes.do not speed with the motor."
"yes...."
"Yes the same one again. not going home late in the afternoon ya. kasian later children..."
"get ready, I'll be a minute later..."
after finishing preparing and Ridho has also given permission yes. Shanti immediately prepared to leave.
"gold I go first yeah.the food for the mas and the kids are all ready at the table."
she took her husband's hand and kissed him with reverence.
"yes deck.. remember yes do not speed around bring the motor..."
"yes yes, yes..."
until the wife's motorbike is no longer visible, then he went from there and returned to the warehouse that is indeed crowded at this time.
the journey to the mother's house does not take much time.only about 15 minutes Shanti has arrived.
when he arrived, Shanti was greeted with laughter by people who were chatting on the side porch.
sounds crowded indeed although his voice is not too clear.he immediately came down from his matic motorbike and approached the people Wang was engrossed in telling that story.
"salama-title...."
"wa aleikumsal..."
answer them all compact and in unison.

not only the mother and Dona and her husband were there, apparently there were also other nephews Shanti.
"wow this crowded tumben what is it?!"

"not really. if you become a mistress males is a bibik nyapu, mopping and washing dishes heehee..."
"but no doubt aunt is now unemployed like I'm...!"
this time it was Dona who responded to Shanti's words.
"that's right, haahaaa"

"fluent Alhamdulillah. bibik do not forget my order yesterday yes, because it will be used on. day H"
"okay it's ready, but I'm not sure about the color"
"soh why?!"
"mas Ridho does not want to wear a shirt if the color is pink he said"
yes, indeed Friska asked all her extended family to wear pink clothes on her happy day later.
it is also what makes Ridho and Shanti debate because indeed Ridho felt less PD with the color shirt.
