...************...

Meanwhile, at the residence of Aisyah's in-laws, Erina was busy preparing clothes before the birth of her child arranged in a suitcase. She did not want to be overwhelmed if at any time she contracted, she and her husband immediately went to the hospital. 

In the midst of Erina's busy compiling childbirth equipment, there was the sound of greetings from outside the house. For a moment, Erina put back the clothes she had just folded onto the bed and headed forward to open the door to see who the guests were coming.

“Eh, Mba Indar's. Come on in, Mba!” Erina let Indar into the house. The two women have been familiar since long ago when Indar and Bayu were friends in school.

Aisyah who had just appeared from inside the kitchen was surprised to see the guests who had come. He was uncomfortable if Indar often visited here. Because all his family-in-law sided with Indar. Except, Ambar. Her mother-in-law did not agree that Indar was too familiar with Bayu. In contrast to her husband, Herman - her second male - often praised Indar as an independent and classy woman. Not wanting to hear the sister-in-law chat with her husband's friend, Aisyah chose to go inside the room to see Zahra sleeping.

“What are you doing, Rin?” indar asked, both of them sitting in the living room chair. Indar only glanced at Aisyah who entered the room.

“For nyiapin birthing needs, Ma'am. Will be willing to be born again so it should be prepared from the beginning. Fear fitting contraction everything forgotten. Like I have no activities, anyway.”

“Oh, I happened to bring hampers for your future children. Hopefully it can help,” said Indar handed a white paperbag with a brand logo of one of the baby's special brands.

“Wah... thank you very much, Mba,” said Erina was happy to receive the paperbag. “Mba, no need to bother, you know. Diliat from the brand aja this must be expensive,” continued Erina.

“Not bothered, really. I'm actually happy. It just so happened that the fitting of returning home from work accidentally passed in front of the store. Suddenly you crossed my mind. That's why I immediately take for your prospective child.”

“Tuh, hear it Ice. Indar who is not part of this family is very considerate with your sister. Different from you who are very calculated with Erina. Anything is calculated and considered first. You are basically stingy!” the great-grandson of Herman who had just entered the house, after feeding on his pet bird beside the porch of the house.

It just so happened that Herman heard the words of the two of them earlier, so he deliberately raised his voice to be heard by Aisyah who was in the room.

Aisha who was in the room did not speak her father-in-law. He kept quiet and suckled Zahra back because he woke up. According to him, it was something he used to do when Indar visited the house. He is also aware of his position as a son-in-law in this family. But on the other hand, Aisyah's small heart, she was disappointed with Herman's attitude, until when he continued to be compared with Indar by his father-in-law. I want Aisyah to spill everything. But he did not dare to fight parents who incidentally are his own in-laws.

Meanwhile in the living room, Indar smiled at Herman's words. He was even more happy to be praised like that. Not only one paperbag he brought, Indar also took another paperbag to be handed over to Herman.

“Om, this is no gift from, I. May Om and Aunt be happy with his present.” Indar handed Herman two pockets from one of the famous boutiques.

Herman who sat beside Erina happily took the gift from Indar. For a moment he saw a pair of sturdy clothes complete with prayer mats and skullcap. 

“What's up, sir? Call him loud. When Zahra wakes up, Kasian Aisyah. She is still tired just finished cleaning up in the kitchen,” said Ambar out of the room following the husband joined in the living room.

Herman handed one of the paperbags to his wife. “This gift from, Nak Indar. Nice, right. These are expensive clothes bought at a famous store. Aisyah where she can buy us clothes as good as this. Most often buy clothes in the market whose price is below the slant even the fabric is not as soft as the clothes given by Indar.” Again Herman again offended Aisyah by comparing her to Indar.

“Mr, really, talk like that. No, you can't, bandingin Aisyah with Indar. However, I am very happy to be bought a shirt by Aish. Want from a famous store or not, the important thing is sincere, mother does not matter. In fact, I am grateful to have a daughter-in-law who is diligent and considerate.” Ambar does not want his daughter-in-law's self-esteem to fall in front of Indar who incidentally friends Bayu and Erina.

 As a woman of course Ambar knows how Aisyah feels in the room. Therefore, he continued to defend his son-in-law and became the protector of Aisha in the vanguard.

“Thank you, Nak Indar, for the gift. Aunty suggests that here do not bother to bring any gifts. Just come like any other guest if you need to. Over time, Aunt is not good, you are the same. You know, it's not nice to owe someone else a favor. Although, Auntie knows you sincerely give this gift to us, but according to Aunt it is excessive if every here you always bring gifts.” Ambar deliberately said as smooth as possible so that Indar was not offended.

The day was already late in the afternoon, it did not feel Indar and Erina chatted casually until she forgot the time. Indar was not aware that he had been in Bayu's house for a long time. Just wanted to say goodbye home, at the same time Bayu got home.

Meanwhile, Aisyah who heard the sound of her husband's motorbike, she quickly went out of the room while holding Zahra who had finished bathing. She wanted to take her husband back to the contract. But unfortunately, the step was preceded by Indar who immediately approached Bayu after parking the motor.

“Pay me please take me home. Soon magrib,” said Indar. Although he saw Aisyah already standing on the lip of the door he did not hesitate to ask his friend to take him home.

Bayu glanced at Aisyah who was standing on the porch of the house. “Ya already, game up!” bayu said to restart the motor without asking permission from the wife.

Indar smiled happily and then climbed into the motorcycle seat by deliberately closing his body to Bayu. Seeing this made Aisyah's blood boil up to her crown. His eyes and face were already extremely angry signaling the woman's heart and mind were shattered. Which wife is not hurt to see a husband who is so loved the way alone with another woman. He was fixated on the spot staring at the nanar departure Bayu piggybacking Indar until lost from his sight.

With a heart filled with jealousy and anger, Aisyah bids Ambar-her mother-in-law-to go home to her contract without waiting for Bayu. Along the way home, Aisyah's tears continued to wet her cheeks. Fortunately, Zahra was not fussy in the sling until she arrived at her rented house.
