Why marry me, Gus?
chapter 48

The next day, guests were still returning to visit Ustadz Wahab. And during that time, Novi continued to appear at home and help Nyai Rosyidah welcome the guests.

But Arin was there. Nyai Rosyidah does not need Novi's help just to make drinks for the guests. But unfortunately Novi always shows up and takes over Arin's duties.

"Why did Novi come mulu?" grouse Arin in heart.

Novi serves tea to guests and speaks with Ustadz Wahab. "Please drink!"

Novi really looks like the son-in-law of the Wahab Ustadz family. And this is not only the response of Arin, but the guests and also the citizens also consider it so.

Yes, the presence of Novi in the residence Ustadz Wahab makes people start comparing Novi with Arin. Plus, people's comments were heard directly into Arin's ears.

"Novi is still coming here." Some people talk about Novi once Novi returns to the kitchen.

"From the first time Novi already deket same Huda. Everyone will also think that Novi will marry Huda," said another.

Unintentionally, Arin heard the words of the people who had just visited Ustadz Wahab. "Novi looks rich in Ustadz Wahab's ghost, huh?"

"It's true, no! Where did the real coat try? Yesterday I also heard from people who were angry, from the first day Ustadz Wahab came home, Novi who helped the most there," said another.

Arin's chest started to rumble. People were getting excited about him and Novi, who were more deserving of changing positions. Everyone thinks Novi is more suited to Huda, and deserves to be Ustadz Wahab's son-in-law.

"I don't think the same about Mas Huda. There's been a Novi who's been with his family all this time, right? Why is he calling another woman?"

"Maybe an arranged marriage, ma'am?"

"If even betrothed, I think Ustadz Wahab same Nyai Rosyidah must choose Novi! Kan Novi has been with them for a long time. Why are they still looking for another woman?"

Arin is getting angry. Everyone continued to praise Novi and considered that Novi was the best woman who deserved to be a son-in-law in the Wahab Ustadz family.

"Novi is really the same as Riski, huh? Surely Riski also wants Novi to be his mother. Novi is also very suitable with Mas Huda," said the people. It seems that everyone who knows Huda and Novi, has predicted Novi who will be Huda's partner, if only Arin does not appear.

But unfortunately their prediction missed when Huda actually married another woman. Plus, Huda's wife is not as good and Novi sealim.

"It's a pity that Mas Huda even married equally leaked. Where does his appearance also blur."

"Yes, Mom! I feel sorry for Mas Huda too. It should be a rich man Mas Huda can dapetin beautiful angel Hafiz Qur'an that. Or maybe a graduate. Or a famous child. But Novi aja actually fits really, huh? His personal novi is gentle, continue to be diligent again. Is it the same with Mas Huda?"

"Am I that bad? Does Novi deserve that much praise?" inner Arin.

"Umi, let's play Riski!" said Riski make Arin's daydreams crumpled.

There was no point in Arin thinking about the words of the people. The woman began to shift her mind by accompanying Riski to play and busied herself with her son.

But still, even though Arin has tried not to care, but the opinions of people about him and Novi are actually quite disturbing Arin. Moreover, people said as if Arin did not deserve to be Huda's wife.

"Umi why? Just keep quiet! Umi don't want to play with Riski anymore?" riski's nagging on Arin.

Arin tried to clear his mind. "Eh sorry, Riski! Umi's sleepy," said Arin trying to make an excuse.

The presence of Novi in his household really makes Arin feel unsettled. The woman is absolutely fed up and eager to encourage Novi to go away from her husband's life. But unfortunately Arin can't do much to keep Novi away. Arin can only ask her husband for help to expel Novi from their household.

"Mas, you can talk for a while" Arin asked Huda who had just finished dinner with her.

"What are you talking about?"

"We're talking in the room, okay?" bring Arin.

Now the two are in the room and look at each other. It seems that Arin wants to discuss serious issues with her husband, especially regarding Novi.

"You got a problem?" ask Huda.

Arin was still trying to put together a proper sentence to convey to her husband. Previously he had protested the presence of Novi at home. This time, Arin must make Huda to rid Novi of their lives forever.

"I feel uncomfortable with the existence of Novi," Arin said later.

"I really don't understand, why Novi really often come to this house? Novi's not a relative, is he? And he also has a wife. But why is Novi still here so often and acting like he's part of this family?" tanya Arin vented all the strands that disturbed his heart

"Novi's existence makes me not calm. Moreover, the attitude of Novi already rich hostess here. People who do not know may think Novi son-in-law of this house," cried Arin. "Everyone says Novi deserves to be the daughter-in-law of this house. I'm rich there's no place in this house, Mom! Actually the daughter-in-law in this family, is that me what Novi? I can't bear to see Novi always showing up in this house."
