Being Struggled Due to Debt
CHAPTER IX
Hana then went inside the house, when she wanted to go to the kitchen she found her son who had opened the door and stood in it, while the husband was sitting while trying to put a pair of swimsuits into his feet.
“Where are you from?” Ask your husband and child at the same time. Hana remembers the message from aunt Mona so, she lied to her husband and son by saying “Mother just came home from kiosk”
“For what mom go there?” Tanya Ayunda.
Laughing, Hana answered a question from her son “Make it buy, time to coffee. I went there to buy ‘royco’ but unfortunately it's up.”
After standing for almost 20 minutes to answer questions from her husband and son, she continued to enter the kitchen. To take a handful of mustard vegetables to tie. After finishing the tie Hana called her son to tell him to bring the vegetable to aunt Mona, “Please give this vegetable to aunt Mona”
“But yes ma'am, wait after I finish shower.” Shouted Ayunda from inside the bathroom.
Hannah waited for her son to take a shower. However, because Ayunda took a bath for too long, Hana brought her herself to the house of Aunt Mona. When Ayunda finished the bath, she came out with a towel clumped on her head, and went straight into the kitchen but, she found no one, there were only vegetables and fruits on the table, he then searched the living room and the rooms but, nothing.
Arriving at Aunt Mona's house, Hana came in and knocked on the door to call Mona.
Tok.shock.
“Mona.”
Ellis, son of Aunt Mona, who was sitting reading a fairy tale, heard Hana's scream but, not opening the door, she went to call her mother in the room
“Mother is a guest in front”
“Who?” Ask aunt Mona
“I don't know mom,”
Aunt Mona then went ahead, to open the door. When she heard the voice from far away, it was Hana. Aunt Mona opened the door.
“Hai aunt” Ellis said as she waved her hand.
“Nih take your vegetables” Hana give a bunch of vegetables to aunt Mona. Aunt Mona took it.
“Thanks” says aunt Mona
“Tante, where's Ayunda?” Ask Ellish.
“She is at home” replied Hana.
Hana went back to her house. But when he had not reached home, he was called by Bu Haja to attend a ceremony for his son who had just graduated from a master in the United States.
“Bu Hana, tomorrow please come to my house ya”
“For what?”
“There was a small thanksgiving because, my son just finished graduation”
“Ia bun later I go”
After that, Hannah went home. When he got home, he finished the meal for dinner.
The family finally ate together. In the middle of enjoying food in a quiet atmosphere Hana then spoke up.
“Dad, did you and Ayunda do something this morning?” Tanya Hana is like a detective.
Gabriel was claustrophobic, his food stuck in his throat when he heard the question from Hana.
“Why can our bedrooms both fall apart like that?”
“That's because...” his heart beat twice as fast, when he was about to give an answer however, Gabriel did not continue his conversation because he just remembered what happened earlier this morning.
“Because what” Tanya Hana with full sharp gaze while sipping a glass of water.
“Mother slowly, if you drink” said Ayunda.
When Gabriel was about to answer Hana's question, Hana preceded his conversation. “Let's eat, give me an answer later.” The three of them finally continued to eat, but Gabriel's heart was still beating because, he was confused about what kind of answer would be. He was afraid that his wife was angry.
The conscious Ayunda, what her mother was asking, simply chose to shut up and let her father answer all the questions from her mother, even though he knew everything because, he said, indeed he was the one who caused his father to be able to make the room very messy. After she finished eating, Ayunda and Gabriel were about to stand up from the table, but Hana held her husband.
“Father stay here” pinta Hana.
“Ayunda, quickly leave father and mother.”
“Good mother.” Ayunda also left the two of them, after finishing washing his hands, he went into his room.
It's nine in the evening, when Hana and Gabriel are still in the dining room. It was time for Gabriel to give an answer to Hana, before that, he poured water from the teapot into the glass and then drank. While still drinking, Gabriel is back in interrogation.
“What's the reason?”
“It was when I, about to go to work, but Ayunda did not allow me. Even locked me in my room.”
“Terus..”.
“What else? Feelings I've given the right answer.”
Hana was not satisfied, when she heard the reply from Gabriel. So, he asked again.
“Why arrive, Ayunda can cry?”
“That's because I snapped it” replied Gabriel briefly.
“That's it?”
“Ia”
Hana moved out of the dining room, at full speed. Full of heartache, because Gabriel yelled at Ayunda. The sentence from Gabriel's mouth that said ‘I snapped at him’ still flew in his mind. Hannah was annoyed by her husband's response. But, what else to do because, the reality is like that.
Gabriel tried to stop his wife by calling her name. “Hana..Hana.” Hana ignored the call until Gabriel stood up and hit the dining table with full force “Braaak”
Hannah left her husband without responding. Gabriel finally sat back in his chair. His wife was in the room to sleep.
***
Sunday, 7 December 2025. That morning, the atmosphere in the Louwenzky family calmed down after a night of commotion. They all carry out a weekly activity that is cleaning the yard, each of them carrying out their duties. Gabriel pruned the plants, Hana swept away all the fallen leaves, while Ayunda picked up the scattered garbage and threw it in the trash. The length of time it took them to clean everything was about an hour.
Hana went into her rash, not long before she came out with two glasses of sweet tea and a cup of coffee for Gabriel. There is also a plate of bread that there are nine pieces with three types, namely; pau, babengka, and wheat pulp of three pieces each. Then placed on the next table he called them for tea but before he told them both to clean their hands. Gabriel, Hana and, Ayunda enjoyed the meal. Sipping coffee Gabriel asked Hana to open the bandage on his wound. “Mother, dad's legs don't hurt anymore. So, the band can be opened.”
Hana was still doubtful because, her husband's wounds had only been two days where it might be healed. “Daddy sure?”
“He mother. See that dad's feet can be moved here and there.” Gabriel said as his right foot kicked the flower pot.
“alah if you are, but later after this” Hana continue to drink tea. But when they did not finish drinking tea, they were approached by three bald-headed men in black clothes they divorced three motorcycles that sounded very unpleasant if entered in the ear.
