The Seed of Father-in-Law
CHAPTER 20
In the afternoon, I went to the kitchen to help Aunt Ida cook, in the kitchen I sliced kale that I would make plecing in addition to grilled squid, in the kitchen, that was the last time I ate food when I was in 1st grade High School.
It was actually my favorite meal when I was in school, whenever I wanted to go to school my mom always made a plecing for my side dish, I don't know why if I eat plecing made by my mother to eat 2 plates of white rice, because it's so good plecing made by my mother.
Plecing kale has become a typical Lombok food with spicy chili, even I once ate plecing until my lips swollen so spicy sambal made by my mother.
In the kitchen I made chili plecing with recipes taught by mother, while waiting for the kale to ripen.
...........
........
One hour we cooked and finally all the food was ready to serve, me and Aunt Ida brought the food to the dinner table, my father-in-law came without me calling because he probably already smelled the smell of the food we were cooking.
I acted as usual, as a son-in-law without bringing up the heinous things that my father-in-law did to me, although I was still angry with my father-in-law but I still served him so that Aunt Ida did not suspect.
"dad want to try plecing?" ask me
"can"
I took my father-in-law one plate of rice, two pieces of squid, and a spicy plecing as the side dish, I saw my father-in-law who felt very pungent after tasting my homemade sambal plecing.
"isssshhhahhh, why is the sauce spicy?" ask the father-in-law
"the name is also sambal yah, the sweet is soy sauce" said I
"hihihi" aunt Ida laughed
"yes I know, but this is too spicy" said the father-in-law
..........
............
After we finished eating I saw the face of my father-in-law who was filled with sweat, because the spicy taste of my homemade plecing chili made his lips reddened, not only my father and Aunt Ida also felt spiciness, but also, but spicy-spicy delicious.
I helped Aunt Ida as usual, cleaned and washed the dishes we used to eat earlier, with lips that reddened me and Aunt Ida to the point of not being able to talk because it held the spicy sambal plecing.
"astaga yu, so spicy"
"hihi, but it's delicious"
"Tante gk strong tau, see Aunt's lips reddened"
"i'm just like aunty, auntie, I'm watching my sweat"
After we finished washing the dishes, I went to the yard, sat on the swing while waiting for the adzan maghrib, in the yard I sang enjoying the cool breeze.
Aunt Ida came up to me who was playing a swing with a glass of orange juice in her hand, aunty ida sat beside me and told me about her teenage years.
"you know not yu, aunty if still young it often goes with friends Aunty to the beach, play until the new evening aunty home, aunty so kangen those days"
"hihihi, yes aunt, what's more still school adolescence is the most beautiful period according to ayu, because ayu can play with friends ayu, can take a walk, can take a walk, mmmmmm anyway ayu kangen that time"
"not feeling yes, time is very fast passing, Aunt who used to be busy going on vacation, is now busy finding money for the family, used to think getting married was very fun, aunty, but when aunty is married according to aunty enakan be a teenager hihihi"
"i used to go to the rice fields playing together with Radit, sitting on the edge of the rice field while looking at the view of Mount Rinjani from my village"
"ehh Radit is now married ya yu" asked aunt ida
"have you ever seen his wife?"
"just yesterday, I went to Radit's house with my mother"
"is Radit home yet?"
"already, the cooking aunt doesn't know"
"aunty doesn't know, if aunty knows it can't be her aunt"
"Why are we going there tomorrow?" take me to aunt
"astaga aunty will work yu, your father-in-law will be angry"
"no, I'll say it"
"yes it's up to you to join the beautiful aunt's employer" said Aunt Ida praised me
"i'm aunty, I'm not Aunt's employer, but aunt's son" I said
So busy we talked did not feel adzan maghrib arrived, me and aunt ida entered the house to pray maghrib, maghrib, because the distance of the mosque from my father-in-law's house is far we can only pray at home.
.........
..........
After we finished praying I and Aunt Ida went to the living room to watch television, sitting together on the sofa with snacks and juices that we had prepared, the father-in-law came and had Aunt Ida make him coffee.
"please make me coffee" pinta father-in-law on aunt Ida
"well sir, sweet what's bitter?" ask aunt Ida
"as always" said the father-in-law
I sat alone on the sofa with my father-in-law, the in-laws who had taken away my honor frightened me and also made me uncomfortable every time I was with him.
"how, is there no sign that you're pregnant?" ask the father-in-law in a small tone
I just shook my head without saying a word, I don't want to talk to a mean man like him. Before long Aunt Ida came to bring the coffee that my father-in-law asked for.
"this is the coffee master" said aunty ida while putting coffee on the front desk of the father-in-law sitting
"thank you" said the father-in-law
"owh yes aunt, tonight my aunt slept the same again yes, so that ayu feel safe" said me while shifting my gaze towards my father-in-law
"astaga, if you sleep alone is not safe?" ask aunt Ida
Father-in-law looked at me, she was afraid I would say that to Aunt Ida, the indecent thing she does whenever I am alone.
"no aunt, I just feel comfortable when sleeping with a aunt" I said
"yes I've been waiting for aunty in the room" I said again as I moved from my seat.
In the room I waited for aunt ida while playing hp and watching YouTube, watching Vidio tutorial as usual that I watch every day, he said, not long ago Aunt Ida came to my room to rest because the clock was showing at 9 pm. Aunt Ida lay beside me while stroking my hair, I hugged Aunt Ida and kissed her cheek again.
We both told her about how Auntie used to be seduced by her husband, until they got married and had one child now, so cool to hear Aunt Ida tell me until I fell asleep.
