"Saturday you're off, right?" Bayu asked when he had just finished his bath. While Aisyah was sitting leaning on the head of the bed. She was waiting for her husband to eat.
"Holiday, Mas. Why why?" aisyah asked, looking up at her husband.
"Mom told us to go to her house, she said she wanted to see you. Saturday we went there, yeah. I haven't been there in a long time either." Bayu spoke while drying his wet hair with a small towel.
"Ayeah" said Aisha, and lowered her feet from the bed, "Mas, is it finished? We're eating, yuk!" bring later.
"Come on!" After hanging the used towel in its original place, Bayu stepped out of the room. Aisyah followed from behind.
...******...
The weekend has arrived. Aisyah had dressed up pretty to go to her in-laws' house. With pleasure Aisyah also wears a new bag given by her friends as a wedding gift.
"Aisha, quarry, dong! Long time, anyway, the makeup? I want to go to the world!" From outside, Bayu shouted loudly.
"Yes, for a minute" said Aisyah as she ran out, then locked the rented door. Seen Bayu already nangkring on his iron horse. The man can't wait to meet his family.
"Got long!" Bayu nagged again as Aisyah was already standing nearby picking up the helmet.
"Patience, dong, Mas. It's still morning. We just want to go to your house, not to work," continued Aisyah.
"Make a ride, ah. If you keep talking even longer."
Aisyah let out her breath. He felt so wrong. Wasn't Bayu talking a lot? After putting a helmet on her head properly, she climbed on a motorbike behind her husband. Without further ado, Bayu immediately propelled his motor darting on the highway.
...*****...
After traveling for thirty minutes, Bayu and Aisyah arrived at the yard of the house that was dark green paint. In front of the terrace, seen Ambarwati and Herman Abdullah—both parents Bayu was sitting casually.
Herman and Ambar were enjoying a cup of warm tea in the morning while waiting for their son to come.
"Well, that's when they came." Ambar immediately stood up when he saw his son's motorbike parked in the yard.
Herman was still flinching in his place. He just stared at the arrival of his son and daughter-in-law while sipping tea water from his cup.
"Assalamu'alaikum." Aisyah and Bayu say their greetings almost simultaneously.
"Waalaikumusalam," replied Ambar and followed by Herman after storing his tea cup on the table. Bayu and Aisyah grabbed the hands of her parents, then kissed the backs of her hands in turn.
"Come, come in, kid. We're talking inside!" take Ambar who immediately brought his daughter-in-law. Ambar is a friendly and loving father-in-law. In contrast to Herman who is a little hard-hearted and rather critical about the lives of his children.
"Mas Bayu." A twenty-year-old young woman immediately embraced Bayu when they had entered the house. She is the youngest of Bayu's siblings Erina—, "very long not here, Mas? I'm, right, kangen. I have long also not convinced the streets are the same to be treated to eat with Mas Bayu," he added spoiled.
Aisyah just kept staring at Erina's behavior. Since marrying Bayu, Erina never seemed to want to try to get along with Aisyah. Although Aisyah has tried to familiarize herself with her sister-in-law.
"Yes, later. If Mas payjian, we go for a walk," said Bayu. Erina cheered happily.
...******...
The sunlight grew hot and crawled up. After talking for a long time, Aisyah invited Bayu to come home, but Bayu did not want to. Actually, Aisyah felt uneasy because she was uncomfortable with Erina's attitude. Aisyah noticed earlier, her sister-in-law always glanced at the bag that Aisyah was wearing. Even the woman tried to insinuate Aisyah if she liked the bag belonging to Aisyah. Despite understanding Erina's intentions, Aisyah tried not to respond.
"Mas Bayu, now it must be a big salary, huh?" Erina started sulking at her brother. They were watching a television show in the living room of their home.
"As only work in the workshop, the salary is still mediocre. Why why?" ask Bayu curious.
"But, how can you buy expensive bags for Mbak Aisyah?"
Aisyah rotated her eyes, lazy, hearing Erina's words that began to provoke her brother's sensitivity. He did not want to comment first, waiting for what Bayu would say.
"Bag?" Bayu's gaze immediately turned to the bag that Aisyah was holding, "oh, that one. The bag was given by his co-worker Aisyah, not Mas who boughtin," Bayu argued next.
"Oh, her friends Mbak Aisyah is good, yes. I'd like to give you that kayak bag, too."
Aisyah smiled strangely getting the code from her sister-in-law.
"Do you want that kayak bag?"
"You." Erina immediately replied in excitement when Bayu asked her.
"Later if you marry your friend. Just wait!" kelak Bayu, then a little laugh. Aisha laughed when she heard it.
"Hish, time has to wait for me to get married first. That is also if someone gives. If not, how?" Erina's face was gripped with annoyance. He folded his hands in front of his chest.
"Bay, Aish, you guys just stay here tonight! It's been a while, haven't you guys done anything?" Their conversation is interrupted by Ambar's arrival. Aisha felt a little calm. At least Erina did not constantly whine to her brother about the bag she wanted.
"Where, Deck? You want to stay here?" Bayu asked Aisha.
Aisyah thought for a moment, if they stayed over tonight, of course Erina had the chance to whine at her sister again. If so, it is possible that Bayu will be affected by the persuasion of his sister-in-law. However, if Aisyah refused, she felt bad.
"Udah, Aish. Just nginep, yeah! Tomorrow is Sunday. You guys work is still off, right?" talk to Ambar again.
"I'm not actually on vacation, Mom. But I can't let you in first." Bayu who responded to his mother's words. Work in the workshop is not too strict rules.
"Gazzy ... Mayu wants to stay here." Erina cheered in excitement, even though Aisyah had yet to give her consent.
"Well, tuh. How, Aish? You want to, right?"
"Udah, come, Mom. Don't try him anymore. Tonight we will stay here. Aisyah my wife, she has to follow what I say." Bayu menukas with emphasis and do not want to be denied.
"If it's like that, why did you ask for my approval, Mom?" Of course, that sentence could only be thrown into Aisyah's heart. Both of her eyes looked at Bayu with a dislike look. Especially when looking at the meaningful smile engraved on his sister-in-law's lips. Aisyah was sure, Erina must have had a plan.
"Aish says Mas Bayu, Mom."
"That, dong. You're a submissive wife, Aish. So lucky Bayu got you. I'm glad you guys could stay here. The house is so crowded again," said Ambar with a happy smile.
Aisyah also tried to smile, although a little forced. In his heart he said, "A wife must obey her husband, but a husband must also be sensitive to the wishes of his wife."
