I'M A Billionaire
CHAPTER 5 - Disappointment

Aksa eavesdropped behind the door, how furious he was to find his wife being beaten by his mother-in-law. A faint conversation of two people in the room sounded.

“Awas you if you get pregnant. I don't want Ajeng to have grandchildren from your husband whose origins are unclear. You are troublesome Ajeng, mother and father of business from morning until night, for your sake and Rayana. But ... ouch, instead choose husband trash so.” Maya ruffled her waist while pointing at her youngest child.

“Iya ma'am, yes. Ajeng always massage with mom and dad.” Crying Ajeng as he pleased, he did not expect Maya to behave like this.

“Still injecting or taking pills? Don't let go of contraception, remember Ajeng!” hardik Maya, vent his anger.

DEG

Aksa's chest is getting sicker knowing that all this time the Mother-in-law forced Ajeng to use contraception. It is only fitting that for two years his wife did not go pregnant, apparently the presence of unwanted babies in the house of Danang and Maya.

“Mother and gaffer, absolutely outrageous.” Aksa's growl held his fists in both hands.

CLAMPS

Maya comes out of the room, staring at her useless daughter-in-law with a condescending look. Combing the appearance of Aksa from head to toe.

“Side, I want to pass. Don't forget to cook Aksa's dinner. As if you want to free.” The mother-in-law's lips widened her eyes.

Aksa did not shift the body, challenging the woman who had given birth to the wife. Aksa stood upright in front of Maya, staring at each other, his gray irises staring intently.

“What? Dare you? Aksa self-conscious, the house is still hitchhiking, want to have children. Your dream.” Maya cynics are very proud to demean her daughter-in-law.

“Mother deserves to be angry with me but never once hurt Ajeng. She's my wife, mother's biological daughter, I should be more affectionate to Ajeng. Having a child is not a dream, but a boon bu.” Assertive Aksa, if only in front of her was not the mother-in-law would have Aksa slammed down to the floor.

“Poor alone is arrogant of you, let alone rich.” Maya accidentally hit her son-in-law and then left, not feeling at home for too long with someone who is not clear seeds, bebet and weights.

Aksa saw his wife sitting bending her knees on the floor, Ajeng's cheeks red. The sound of Maya's slap was so loud and stuck in the memory, his wife was enduring pain all by herself.

Taking towels and ice cubes to reduce bruising, he also looked for ointments in the drawer.

“Ajeng .. dear.” Aksa tried to treat the wound on the cheek but Ajeng instead brushed off her husband's hand, because he thought this was all Aksa's fault. Had not bought pregnant milk and vitamins, Maya would not have been angry.

“You read Aksa it's my check.” Ajeng's voice trembled, his sobs as soon as they reached the eardrum. Ajeng showed the results of the examination that he only had flu and flatulence, not pregnancy.

“Sorry Ajeng. I ...” shrewd Aksa, then hugged Ajeng who looked chaotic. “I treat your cheeks yes.” persuade Aksa, attach a towel cloth to smooth cheeks that are now red and wet with tears.

“All this is because you are Aksa, you think getting pregnant is easy. Who will take care of your child? Me? Do I have to quit my job? What do you want your child to eat?” yelling Ajeng continued to beat the chest of her husband's field, so scruffy, venting all the contents of the heart.

“Your son?” muttered Aksa smiled wryly, is it as low as he is in the eyes of the inhabitants of this house?

“Our daily needs are still lacking, right from my salary again? Monthly check fees, childbirth, baby clothes and everything from me? Ck, what role are you as a husband? Or did you quit your job? Life is not as easy as filling your head Aksa.” Ajeng's voice grew louder and more loudly berated her husband.

While Aksa was clinging tightly to Ajeng, it was heartbreaking for Aksa to hear all the words that came out of his wife's lips. Everything is always wrong, in the eyes of people the figure of the Aksara is so despicable.

“Quite Adjeng, remember as poor as anything. Your destiny to be my wife, I Aksara your husband, take good care of oral.” Assertive Aksa, wanted to end this day, without any more debate that led to his status as a useless husband.

Rather than continue to hear heart-piercing words, she chose to go out of the room doing her duty as a daughter-in-law, cooking dinner.

 Aksa, who was previously happy not to play, is now mired very deep into the hole of disappointment. He condemned his stupidity, why believe in the news that is not yet clear truth.

One week after the disappointment, the embittered Aksa takes a two-shift job at the restaurant, morning and afternoon. He had plans to take his wife out of the house of in-laws, at least enough to contract a livable home.

“Wah Aksa, spirit. Then I also want to take the day shift, good enough to buy powder wife.” Gurau Rudi, tidying the dishes on the shelf.

“Iya. Any information on cheap but comfortable house rental Rud? Yes budget 800 thousand maybe. But near the hospital. So that the wife can be closer to leaving and coming home from work.” Akasa asked because his friend's parents' house was around the hospital.

“May be there, but not including electricity. The road is small, the motor can pass. If you want better still available funds one million more.” Rudi remembered some of the houses he went through every day.

“Motor Road is also quite Rud, you think I have a car? Still far Rud. I want to live together, peacefully with Ajeng. It's been quite two years hitchhiking in-laws.” Aksa's thoughts in the near future must be realized.

He imagines having a small family that is harmonious with the presence of the baby, surely the children become medicine tired and for Aksa this difficulty is only temporary.

“Hey dreamer, I go home first yes, wife phone keeps saying child fever.” Pamit Rudi patted the shoulder of his comrades-in-arms.

Aksa who had finished rushed to tidy up the items and exited the parking area with his motorbike. On the way, he always felt that there was someone trailing since he came out of the restaurant.

One car unit that is only owned by certain people and of course the price is very expensive, faithfully followed until Aksa entered the gate of the housing complex, but already one week there has been no strange events that befallen.

Who is not worried about being watched by foreigners, let alone rampant criminal news, but what is targeted by an Aksa? There aren't.

Aksa is also grateful that this week the restaurant is getting crowded with catering orders and guests always come and go.

While in the car, a man keeps an eye on Aksa and contacts someone. He listened to the instructions given.
