After last night bothered with the goods that will be taken to the house of the mother, this morning me and bang Dadang a little more relaxed.just waiting for travel to pick up, just waiting for travel to pick up, even though we use a motorbike, it is also impossible if we have to carry a large suitcase.
Bude very early this morning, did prepare special dishes made by him for me to bring to his house, namely beef rendang which is the mainstay of bude menu. Bude also sends greetings to his mother and extended family.
" Your mom and dad should have picked you up here. Let Bude himself leave Siti with them, because now Siti has become their child.."
I can see if Bude has cried. Although those eyes chose not to look at me who was right behind the Dadang bang, but I know if the bude is very heavy to release me now.
" Bude tipped Siti ya Dang. Take care of him both physically and with his heart. He is the only bude treasure. So don't let down Bude's trust by hurting him.."
Bang Dadang looks glassy.." I promise bude. Will make Siti happy and keep her with all her body and soul. Thank you for the trust bude. If bude misses Siti. Bude can come to the house or call us. Then we'll come here.."
" Bude hope you really prove everything Dang. Not for bude but for your love for your wife.."
Bang Dadang Retreated from his position that was sitting in front of the bude. as if giving me a turn to sit opposite the bude.
" Siti pamit ya bude. Thank you for taking care of Siti all this time. And thank you for trusting Siti to choose bang Dadang..."
Bude stroked my hair that broke his lap. " Remember the message of Bude Siti. Whatever problems you have in your household, you must be able to face it yourself. Hold your tongue so as not to complain about any of the nature and bad attitude of your husband. As long as you can survive, you must keep your husband's marwa. either in front of the bude as your family or in front of your in-laws. You know what bude means !
For the disgrace of the husband is the disgrace of the wife. Don't make things all the more messy because of your tongue.."
I nodded although I did not understand a little of what Bude said.
" I will miss bude. often - often call Siti ya bude. Let ngobatin kangen ..hehhe"
I forced a smile on myself, so that Bude would not be too late to feel sad when he took me off.
The smile finally came up and was also filled with Bude. Makes me cry . I don't know why it feels so hard to leave Bude here alone.
" Loh you why even cry, This is indeed the stage that must be lived by us as women. ."
" I say goodbye bude ...!!" I chose to cut off Bude's words because I couldn't bear to look at the face I was going to miss.
I stood up and immediately turned around without looking back, as my tears were now flowing more and more and more and making me feel claustrophobic.
Slightly staggering I approached the bang Dadang and hugged him, whether since when the travel has come and goods in the form of 2 large suitcases of mine and bang Dadang have now moved into the car .
" Come bang beaver.kat..!"I stammered, wanting to leave immediately, not wanting to look at the bude .
***
All the way these tears just kept flowing without me being able to hold..
Bang Dadang was also just silent as if understanding if I was reluctant to talk. I do not know why it feels like this sick to part with bude.
Just like a year ago.an hour more trip we took to get to the mother's house.
When we arrived, the house had seen my mother, father, and brothers bang Dadang had been waiting for our arrival. Seeing that, my mind even further did I leave the bude for my new family ?
My chest is getting crowded.
" Loh Dang Siti Why ? "
Mom came up to me and grabbed me when I was getting off the bike.
" Don't have the heart to bude, mak..."
" Ohh ..Where are your clothes ? "
" Brought travel earlier mak. It doesn't fit on the taro on the bike.."
I followed Dadang's bang, with my mom still picking me up. I saw salsa, and the other brothers of bang Dadang seemed to smile kindly at me.
There's a warm feeling coming up hopefully, it's a good start for me and our relationship as a family..
I decided to go to the bathroom. Wanted to wash my face, which I believe to have looked damp .
At the age of her teens I slightly salute the personality of Salsa who seems polite and knows to treat me who is still shy as a member of their new family.
" This is the bathroom. Oh yes, I want to shower or wash my face. If you want to take a bath Salsa get the same towel Salsa toiletries first, ."
I held Salsa's hand that was about to step away
" Mom just want to wash your face Sa. sorry so ngerepotin.."
" Ordinary times mbak. I was even happy to finally have an older sister, because it's my four older brothers, all at the rese. Possessiveness is not clear.."
I was amazed at Salsa's attitude.
" But you love me..."
Sweet face Salsa smiling.
" Well, Ma'am, the recite is a little doang. But there's a lot of hehehhe ""
I smiled at this little girl too.
" Please mbak, ,"
I almost forgot my original purpose because I was too engrossed in my conversation with his youngest brother bang Dadang.
I immediately entered the bathroom . Now the mirror has reflected my figure that looks messy. swollen eyes with a red nose. And messy hair.
It turned out that parting with bude made me this broken. My fear of the house-in-law turned out to be unwarranted.
I'm even more scared away from Bude....
" Sir.mbak is okay, right ?"
I flinched, apparently Salsa was still waiting for me outside. I quickly finished my activities and got out.
" I'm sorry Sa, it's not okay to bother you !!"
"not the mbak. But I thought it was okay inside ? Thank goodness it's gone"
Mother came from the front, carrying the bushel that had been given by Bude.
" Why don't you open it ?"
My mother asked while lifting the bushel towards me.
" Yes, it's okay !! I'm sorry, 'cause I didn't give it to my mom right away. I was too busy with my own grief.. That's Bude's hand, he also sends greetings to the family here.."
" we women will indeed pass through the thing you just experienced Siti. I understand how you feel now. But it will usually be felt if we are away from parents for more than a week. And you ?" Mother smiled a little.
" Mom thought you were crying because you didn't want to come here "
I smiled clumsily, Between wanting to argue and justify . Is your mother a type of ceplas-ceplos like this. Or it's just my feeling of being overwhelmed by excessive worry.
" I'm sorry again, Mom. If it makes you feel offended.."
" There's no reason why Siti. Mah's mother relaxes her person, if she is wrong to reprove, because she does not like to ngaca hhehe"
Salsa's voice echoed, accompanied by her satisfied laughter seeing the expression on the mother's reddened face restraining anger. The figure of the little girl had far away ran to save herself.
" Boy boy, "Mom muttered softly, then the eyes looked back at me "Mending you rest first, your room is in front. Oh yes, the suitcase has also been delivered as well as travel, let you arrange it in the closet that has been ready. Don't hesitate, consider it your own home.."
I hugged my father-in-law, and thanked him.
Then it passed forward, towards the room you mentioned...
