The Blink is Dusk.

The Blink is Dusk.
Bickering


One week passed still in that month.


...*****...


That Sunday, almost everyone had a day off work. In addition to the day of rest, also the day of attending the invitation. Not far from the Aramaic contract there is a wedding celebration, the sound of music sounds loud.


Aram is not on holiday, he's gone early in the morning looking for used goods. Grandma doesn't trade, she, Areha are in contract with Figan and Luran. Azan heard from the mosque, it was already the time of Zuhr. Grandma was ablution and ready to pray Zuhr with Areha.


Meanwhile, Aunt Walah was washing dishes in the kitchen. Her husband was lying down while playing his smartphone. She smiled and continued to play with her phone.


"Yeahh." Aunt Walah's husband yawned, she was going to sleep. His watery eyes were accompanied by wide yawning repeatedly.


Junka studied in the front room, Deak playing a doll not far from him. There are sling and rags for stuffed toys. A set of cooking toys he also played with.


"Little bro, don't be naughty. If you're naughty, I'll pinch." Deak said playing, he then raised a cup-shaped toy. It was as if the doll was thirsty. That's how he keeps playing by himself. Junka opened a few books and seemed to be studying seriously. Junka's father fell asleep that afternoon, and the phone slipped in his hand. It just so happened that Bibik Walah was sweeping and approaching the sleeping husband. When he wants to get rid of the phone. The phone key is still open and the WhatsApp application is also open. Aunt Walah saw clearly, from the messages of her husband's friendly and affectionate chat. There is also a repeat video call notification. Aunt Walah with a thumping and burning fire of jealousy read all those messages. Contact name Salti, profile photo of a beautiful woman with shoulder-length hair is still quite young. If you consider his age is still under thirty years.


"M."


"Darling, what else?." Message sent by Bibik Walah's husband. Message followed by a pulsating gift love.


"Think of you my love." Reply contact named Salti. Also followed by gift love pierced by arrows. Aunt Walah read the whole message and the blood boiled.


"Kandaa. You're rude, you said no-no, it turns out you're a cheat. Damn itchy men, shamelessuuuu." Aunt Walah shouted and spoke harshly with an outpouring of emotion. She went on a rampage and hit her husband with a broomstick. Bibik Walah's husband was shocked and embarrassed. He realized that the phone was in his wife's hands. He fell asleep and the phone opened.


"Tarr." Smashed cellphones slammed on cement floor. Deak and Junka got up and looked into the living room. They saw cellphones scattered, and their father was hit with a broomstick.


"Sir. Mr." The broom hit her here and there, making her husband in pain and trying to dodge.


"Adu. Aduuu." He said while deflecting the blow.


"You're too much Kanda, how else would life be. Life's tough, you're playing crazy too. I'm sorry to be your wife. It's so sorry it feels. If I'm poor I'm fine, but if you're having an affair I can't take it anymore." Said Aunt Walah while beating her husband. Without a second thought her husband went out on a contract going somewhere on a motorcycle. Deak and Junka wept bitterly watching the quarrel of their father and mother.


"Aaaahhh. Ahhhh." Shouted Bibik Walah expressing his anger and regret. He was crying on the floor. Grandma, Bibik Tuyi, Yuro's Uncle, Areha, came to Bibik Walah's contract. They asked what happened.


After Bibik Walah calmed down and sat leaning against the wall, crying he told me about the incident just now. When you see a cell phone splashed all understand why the phone broke apart. Deak and Junka were still crying in Bibik Walah's arms.


"Life is poor, eat potluck, plus the behavior of kanda so. How broken my heart is, Grandma." Said Aunt Walah.


"You must be patient Walah, for the sake of your children. May Brother Yugus change in the future." Bibik Tuyi's words were encouraging.


"Yes, Grandma will talk to Yugus. Hope he wants to change. Now you just calm down and continue your work." Grandmother's Advice. Areha invites Deak and Junka to play and study at his rented. So the atmosphere becomes calm. Uncle Yuro came home with his wife. Grandma was still talking to Aunt Walah.


...*****...


Meanwhile, Uncle Yugus arrives at the place where he often hangs out. Greet friends with smiles and laughter.


"Broo, why wasn't I on the phone just now." Friend says.


"Day today, time again chet with my girl, overslept. So see my wife all my messages." Said Uncle Yugus.


"Ha.ha.ha." Five of his six friends laughed out loud, only one was silent.


"Eat it, watch out playboy. Your phone must have been a mess." Said another friend.


"How about this, go online. Susa gets a passenger if there's no cell phone." Grieved Uncle Yugus.


"You are, it is not difficult because it is difficult to get passengers, but sad because you can not


calling your darling." The other said, and then they laughed together. Only the silent ones did not laugh. It seemed that he did not like the words and behavior of Uncle Yugus.


"Yugus, you should be aware. All right, you change and stop hurting your wife. Start thinking about the future well. We are not always excited. But even if we are not rich, at least our family is good, can eat, get along, pity your children. They need a future." Advice from the taxi driver who was silent.


"Hey, Tulips. You must not be pious and advise me. You're who. It's my life, it's up to me. Understood." Said Uncle Yugus furious, his chest bubbling at Tulip's words.


"Yes Tulip too, don't preach. Well, you take care of your life." Said the first carpenter calling Uncle Yugus. The motorcycle taxi driver named Tulip was silent. While the other motorcycle taxi drivers continued to make fun of Uncle Yugus. Uncle Yugus was so happy many compliments from friends. One of them suggested that he take a loan phone at the mobile phone counter. His friend has an acquaintance there. Enough DP two hundred thousand, and a copy of the ID card he can bring home a mobile phone. Uncle Yugus was very happy and he asked the company of his friend to take a mobile phone credit.


"Be careful this time, don't get caught again. Make the name of the man your girl contacts." His friend taught him incorrectly.


"Well, done." Answer Uncle Yugus. She smiles.


"What about your wife, Gus. You're sleeping outside tonight." Ask friend.


"Beres, I'll pretend to be sorry and apologize. That little one." Said Uncle Yugus, the two then returned to the ojek base under the plyover nine kilometers of Palembang City where the base was held. The road is jammed, but for the motor is not hampered. Fifteen minutes later Uncle Yugus and his friend arrive.


"Oh, memorize your affair contact number. It's amazing you are." Said his friend, who was in a black jacket while smacking his shoulders. While Tulip his heart said, you fool. In the banter people like, he loses himself.


"Well, my favorite number." Said Uncle Yugus so proudly praised his friend. He then called his cheating number.


"Hallo, my dear Dik Salti, I'm sorry. Mobile phone kanda fell, trus crushed truck. So I bought a new phone, and a new contact." Uncle Yugus said with a smile, as did friends.


"Dear, it's okay, so be careful to put the phone, so it's detrimental." Said Uncle Yugus.


"Yes, too, his name is misfortune. How else to." Said Uncle Yugus.


"Yes. Honey, send dinda pulses a hundred thousand. Internet quota is almost over. It could be dark and live. The bad news is that kanda and dinda can't tell each other. Taunya, kanda's been taken by the others." Uncle Yugus said in a soft seduction.


"Oh, just calm down, baby. Kanda will send it. Don't worry, it's okay." Uncle Yugus assured.


"Thank you for me. Muah, good." Said Uncle Yugus. A few minutes later, they ended the call. Uncle Yugus approached his friend earlier.


"Bro, borrow fifty thousand, there is a need. Returned tomorrow." Said Uncle Yugus.


"Ah, you're this, same calculation friend once." Said Uncle Yugus.


"You're for your girl, cook you good I'm the loser. If you want me to love you, if not, then." Answer friends.


"Who, tomorrow I return seventy thousand." Uncle Yugus gave up, accepted the terms of interest on borrowing twenty thousand dollars a day. After that, he headed for the pulse counter and bought a hundred thousand rupiahs of credit.


"How dear, it's in the pulse." Uncle Yugus chet WhatsApp on his affair. A few moments later the reply came in.


"Yes makaci, my love. The results are smooth." Chet's reply to Uncle Yugus' affair.


...*****...


Uncle Yugus came home at about eleven p.m. Aunt Walah opened the door without saying a word and then went straight to sleep. He didn't care about Uncle Yugus. The two sleep separately, Uncle Yugus sleeps in the front room and Bibik Walah sleeps in the living room with Junka and Deak. The next morning Bibik Walah also did not wake up as usual, he was still sleeping even though it was noon. He usually makes coffee for Uncle Yugus. But that morning he didn't. Jealousy and anger were still burning inside his chest. If it wasn't for Junka and Deak she might have left already, gone home to her parents.
