Bu Nining rushes towards the room that was once occupied by Dodi and Arini and is now occupied by Dodi and his new wife on the grounds that the room is bigger and more comfortable for Azkia.
"Dod! Dodi! Open the door, I want to go in" said Ms. Nining, knocking on Dodi's door quite loudly.
"Dodi, who had just finished taking a shower, immediately approached the door and opened it. "What's up, Mom? Isn't it still too early to make a scene?" sahut Dodi's.
Dodi went back into the room and then grabbed her work clothes and pants from inside Arini's old used wooden cabinet. He was already too dizzy with all his problems and now he wanted to quickly leave for his office.
"Hush, you are!" bu Nining protest. "Who wants to make a scene? I just want to tell you, your wife left in a dress that is very inappropriate to be worn by someone who is married like her. Your time as her husband, let it go?" madam Bu Nining.
Dodi breathed heavily. However, he continued his activities at that time. "Easy, Mom. That's what I didn't like about Anissa. He's unruly and also unassailable."
Bu Nining bent her face after hearing the reply from her son. "The woman should be educated even harder, Dodi! Do not let you regret it later," said Bu Nining again.
"Mom, Anissa is no longer a child. It will be difficult to change his behavior, unlike the case with Arini. Arini is a submissive woman. If Anissa, yes ... like that."
Bu Nining was silent with his head bowed to the floor. He was sad when he remembered Arini. The woman's departure made him realize his mistake all along.
"Mother's sad, Dod. If you remember how Mom's attitude has been the same Arini. All this time I've never been kind to her. Even Mother often insulted and berated him. And now karma has come to me by replacing Arini with Anissa. There are no more good and obedient daughters-in-law, there are only daughters-in-law who like to argue and also stubborn."
"Easy, Mom. The rice is already porridge and if there will be a chance to apologize to him, I apologize. There is no harm in apologizing, even though Mom's age is much older than her," said Dodi, who still had buttons on her work shirt.
Bu Nining raised his head then looked at Dodi who was still standing in front of the mirror attached to the wooden cabinet.
"Dodi, do you have no desire to bring Arini back? You're still her legal husband, Dod. You're still entitled to her."
Dodi who had finished tidying up her clothes, sat down beside Bu Nining while smiling bitterly.
"I've actually tried it, Mom. But it looks like Arini doesn't want to come back to me anymore. I still have shame anyway. I'm ashamed to impose my will on him considering how I've been doing behind Arini."
Bu Nining again took a deep breath and now the middle-aged woman's gaze was fixed on Azkia who was still soundly asleep. "Yes, now we just have to accept fate, Dod. Because tilapia a speck breaks down milk a long time."
"Yes, Dod. Be careful on the road, yeah. Mom didn't make breakfast either. Nothing can be cooked. There is only rice, it was the rest of yesterday afternoon" said Bu Nining.
Dodi rubbed his face violently. He does not believe that his economic condition has worsened after Arini's departure. "Truely said people. The husband's blessing comes from the prayer of the sholeh wife. And after my wife sholehahku hurt and then chose to leave, then my fortune was receding, as if in just unplugged," said Dodi with a sad face.
Meanwhile.
Hendra was heating up his car and suddenly Anissa approached the fence that became the barrier between his residence and the man.
"Hi, Mas Hendra. How are you?" Anissa gave a smile as sweet as possible to Hendra who now turned to her.
Hendra knitted his eyebrows together looking at the appearance of Anissa back then. "Well," Hendra answered briefly and the man seemed reluctant to talk to Anissa.
"Mas, can I ride forward?" asked Anissa again while highlighting the two circles of his forehead to be clearly seen by Hendra.
Hendra immediately turned his face and refocused on his car. "Only in front, right? You see, I'm too late and I don't feel good about Mas Dodi if you ride with me. I don't want Mas Dodi to misunderstand me anymore" he said.
"Yes, just get to the front" said Anissa with a cramped face.
Hendra got into his car and opened the door for Anissa. "Come in" he said.
Anissa happily entered and sat next to Hendra who was sitting at the wheel.
"Thank you, Mum. I made an appointment with my friend, but until now he did not also pick me up," said Anissa again, the woman's gaze could not be separated from the face of Hendra who focused forward.
"Oh" said Hendra lazily.
