The Beginning of a Famous Writer
Almost but still a disappointment

"Bund, mother why?" Ardi immediately got off the bike approaching Indri and took him into his lap.

Bang Jaja and his wife who witnessed also scattered towards Indri.

"In, lift it in first!" Bang Jaja gave me some advice.

"Yes bang." He immediately lifted Indri into the house bang Jaja and laid in the living room.

"Bund. Mother wake up...!" While patting Indri's cheek. I hope Indri opens his eyes soon.

"Try smearing this at." Say wife bang ajaja while thrusting eucalyptus oil.

"Ilesion to the tips of the toes and soles as well."

"Yes, brother."

Ardi thought he would call a local midwife. But back he broke his intentions. Because he remembered he had no more money.

He shed tears. But he quickly wiped it. I am not a man who can make a couple happy. To bring the wife's medicine I don't have any money. It's self-defeating.

"In the past, your wife has complained of pain?" Bang Jaja opened her voice asking.

"So the hell I picked up he said it's not good bang."

"Wouldn't you call a midwife? Close to the midwife's house from here." Bang Jaja gave me an idea.

Ardi fell silent. Her tears fell in. He also did not want people to know his situation. His helpless condition pleased his wife. Let alone make happy with luxury. Gold and holidays, for treatment only he is not able at this time.

"Don't bang, we'll just wait a minute." The answer refused subtly.

Actually in his heart he was eager to bring to the midwife or call the midwife. But that's impossible. He could only pray in his heart while massaging his wife.

Not long after he fainted. Indri slowly opened his eyes.

"Well, where is this? Why is your head so dizzy?"

"Alhamdulillah. What do you feel now?"

"Dizziness yeah."

Indeed, it looks once the radiance of his face displays a deathly pale. Shaking hands.

"It's Di, give your wife some water to her." Said bang Jaja's wife offering a glass of warm tea.

Ardipun immediately accepted. "Thank you brother." And immediately raised a little Indri's head so that he could drink.

"Udah mengingan. Mother sit down." Slowly finishing the tea.

After almost half an hour of sitting. Indri is feeling better.

They're home. Onward journey.

"Bund sorry dad ya. I don't have the money to take mom to the midwife."

"Yes, yeah, it's okay. Mother knows. Let's go home first. Later I try to come in Brother Beautiful. How do you know he has money to replace our money."

"Owh yes bund."

They were silent to the house.

"Why are you so pale Ndri?" I look worried.

"I'm not feeling well buk." And go straight into the room. Regardless of Rey and Aihzan playing on the terrace.

"Keep the cure?" I'm coming to the room.

"Coconut yet? Go get treatment!" Titah.

I just kept quiet and bang Ardipun was misbehaved.

"Ardi why don't you ask Indri for treatment?"

"Owh anu buk. A.a.a.." A..."

Indri immediately cut off Ardi's speech.

"I'm fine, maybe exhausted. I'll just rest."

Ibukpun. Without Ardi and Indri knowing it turns out his mother eavesdropped behind the curtain. Listening to Ardi's talk who again apologized for not having money.

Arrive arrived....

"So you have no money at all?"

We also fell silent.

"Your late nights looking. Even the people are asleep you are still working. People haven't woken up yet you've woken up to work. Until I could not bear to see Indri who lack rest. The next morning I had to teach again. Well now for treatment that may only need fifty thousand money. You can't afford Ardi? What kind of husband are you? That sense has been helping you work lo." Saying the fire. And of course bang Ardi was very offended by his words.

"Buk I'm sorry. I haven't been able to make Indri happy. Our money goes to the buk." Bang Ardi defended himself.

Indri was silent. He doesn't know who to defend. Husband or his own parents.

"I'm okay, I just need a break. And no need for medication." I said while breaking down.

"Bund dad to stall kak Indah first yes." Bang Ardi asked permission, so that this matter does not continue.

"Buk I say yes. Titip son and Indri for a moment." But mother was silent.

Ardipun. He avoids the scolding of mother's nagging, so that his heart does not hurt deeper. He realized he could not make his wife happy, but all this time he had been trying. But sustenance has not been on his side.

***

Arriving at Warung Kak Indah instead of getting the money used by Kak Indah, he was even diomeli and lectured by Kak Indah.

"Just two days ago you were here. Is Sekaramg here again? Where is my money? Even if there is. I paid from your money. Just got that money. Your life is still difficult too.it's sok an nadil debt. Moreover, you have a lot of money. Don't borrow. Maybe your brother won't admit it anymore." Say Beautiful without any guilt.

Ardi was more confused. At home lectured in-laws. Here also be lectured again. Obviously, he asked for his own money.

"It's also because I'm afraid that there's more money I can use, maybe I won't charge you here brother." His words are no less sniffy.

"Omong empty you don't have Ardi's money. Your wife works and has a monthly salary. So people don't be stingy, let alone the same brother." It's still beautiful to blame Ardi.

He who no longer wants to argue with the beautiful. Like whatever the debate, it's free.

He decided to go back home.

Fifty meters to the house. Suddenly the motor suddenly died. It ran out of gas. He who has no money in his pocket. Then push the bike home.

Get home. Because the motor is not alive. No one knew it had arrived home.

"You're still silent about accepting Ardi like that. After dropping you off at school. He just relaxed relaxed with his pet fish. There was no intention of finding a job. Later you after school even invited to work until late at night. In the morning, I woke up again to teach. Not only that, Ardi told you to sell also at school. Doesn't he have a brain. Like blackmailing the wife's energy." Mother said naggingly.

Ardi was still listening to the conversation from outside.

"Yet. Bang Ardi is not playing or relaxing. He kept the fish for him to sell." Indri defended Ardi.

My mother is old. Never knew that ornamental fish can make money later. And we who also never gave an explanation to him before undergoing this business. Apalgi for months bang Ardi cultivated the fish, but has not yet made a penny.

Almost, but still a disappointment.
