"Slow down, Mom!" Naya helps her mother lie in her room.
This afternoon, Santi was allowed to go home by the midwife who took care of him at the nearest puskesmas, helping Meli a neighbor who was so kind to her family. The girl who was younger than Naya was no longer reluctant to Santi, even already considered her own mother. Moreover, the girl was an orphan who only lived with her grandmother.
"Thank you, Mel! I don't know if there's no you, how it is with Mom," he said sincerely.
"Isshh fuck oruh, Tea. Don't think about it! You'll be like Mel's own family" replied the girl who was still sitting in the Junior High School.
Naya smiled in response. The girl said goodbye to go home first. Santi grabbed Naya's hand, until the girl turned to her mother.
"Yes, Mom. Wh why? Do you want a drink?" ask Naya.
Santi smiled shaking his head. "No, I don't want anything tea" she replied. Naya smiled and grabbed her mother's hand and stroked her.
"You don't want to get back? Don't you have to go to college?" ask Santi.
"No, Ma. I'm on three days off. And maybe even more," replied Naya.
"Lho, why?" ask Santi wonder.
"I'll take care of you here first," Naya replied lightly. Of course, that made the mother not accept.
The woman let go of the hand that Naya held, until it was released. Suddenly it made Naya look up to look worried at the mother. "Why, Mom?" tanyakanya.
"Mom's tea should ask. Why do you have to skip because of it, Mom?" ask Santi to reverse the question.
"No, ma'am," Naya tried to explain as she reached for her mother's hand, but was not welcomed by the middle-aged woman.
"Bus ... I want to keep Mom for the next few days. Let's take a day off, I can still take classes online. I know, don't I mean?" naya is slow.
Santi was only able to breathe out a long breath. He doesn't know about it. He who is only a High School graduate, does not understand the world of lectures certainly feels anxious. He was afraid that it would affect his daughter's lessons.
"Udah, now I'm taking a break! I'm gonna take a shower, hem?" naya's decree and was embraced by the middle-aged woman.
Naya wandered out of the room, after making sure the mother was comfortable lying down and closed her eyes. The girl's gasps cleaned themselves to refresh the body that was sticky from the night with sweat.
It did not take long, he was neat with home clothes that he used to wear first. Unfinished she dries her hair, the sound of knocking on the door distracts her attention.
"Who?" mummified Naya.
Not wanting to guess, he immediately passed towards the outer door to see who the guests were coming. Not a greeting or excuse me, the guest greeted with temptation.
"Hi, Neng geulis!" greet a man with a smile that Naya finds annoying.
"What's up, A?" ask Naya lazy. To be honest, he wasn't happy to welcome the man to a visit.
"Don't be rude, A!" naya's sweat is upset.
The man smiled sweetly and casually without any invitation. Then, sit down on the sofa in that narrow room. Naya was only able to exhale heavily. If he is equally disrespectful, it feels like he kicked the man out of his house.
"Actually, what was the purpose of A Juned here tea? Isn't your debt business over?" tanya Naya tried her best to respond to the son of the richest landlord in the village.
Samsudin, the father of Juned is indeed a landlords and leeches who are happy to blackmail the poor people in the village. Juned, a thirty-year-old man, was so happy to charge every citizen who borrowed quite harshly. Not for the Naya family. He who has put his heart on the beautiful girl, always gives lightness. In fact, he offers a deal to pay off the debt with Naya being his wife. Of course it was rejected Santi, who knew the character and character of the man.
Naya's family debt begins when Gunawan, Naya's father, falls ill. His brother and sister, not helping precisely with the heart to master the farm. Santi, who was helpless, let her husband's two brothers take some farms and leave only one cage for her. Even so, Santi did not give up and continued to try to develop the cage. However, due to reduced income and increasingly expensive husband treatment, Santi was forced to borrow from Samsudin.
Until the time Gunawan died, the debt was still left and continued to interest. Santi is not desperate, he is still communicating with Sena. In fact, borrowing capital on the woman to develop her farm again, until the farm developed again and became several cages. From that result, he was able to pay off the debt to Samsudin. And now, what else is it? Think Naya.
"Neng geulis sat down first! Or take Aa a drink, thirst this!" chirps Juned without sin.
Naya breathed a long breath. Instead of making a lot of trite drinks, he better sit down and face the shameless man.
"Emm, how is Mother Tea now? All right, right?" tanya Juned is still in stale taste.
Naya who was already caught off guard, could no longer control her temperament. "Well, if nothing matters. A Juned is out, mom is also resting!" banish smooth.
Juned laughed, I don't know what the guy laughed at. Until the man gets up and starts getting serious. "I guess, Neng Teh doesn't know yet, Mother's problem?" tanyakanya.
Naya knitted her brows not understanding. "The problem? What problems?" tanyakanya.
Juned rolled out the paper that he had rolled from his hand into the table in front of Naya. The girl tried to see what paper the man showed.
"It's a tea covenant between Aa and Mom" Juned explained. Naya read the contents of the letter signed by the man and the mother there.
"What's this?" tanya was shocked to reach for the paper, and read it over and over again.
"As per agreement. Today, tea cannot be paid. So, the Neng officially became Aa's wife candidate," Juned continued.
Sontak Naya turned back in shock with her mouth wide open. How could there be such a deal? And again, what makes the mother have business with the man.
"Official? Official naon na (whatever)? Who wants to marry A Juned?" annoyed Naya.
"Naon excusena, should Nay marry A Juned? Keep the ieu tea agreement naon? Naon's debt? (what's the reason, Nay should marry Sam A Juned? What is this deal? What debts?)" tanya Naya.
"Teen tea really don't know? Yes, yes, Aa will be clear. So, Mother's tea-"
"Day!!!"
