The Seed of Father-in-Law
CHAPTER 33
When I got home, my father-in-law was sitting quietly on the sofa in the living room.I approached him to tell him that Farhan had started to love me.
"assalamualaikum yah" said I who shook his hand to pray
"walaikumsalam, where are you from?" ask the father-in-law
"me and Aunt Ida just got home from mom's house" I replied with a flat face
"Tante wants to continue the work first yu" said Aunt Ida who went to the kitchen
" well, there's something I want to say to you" I said awkwardly
"what?" ask the father-in-law
"i just wanted to tell dad, to no longer do dirty things to me. I don't want my husband to know that I, have been tainted by his father.if dad does that again, I don't want my husband to, I will forcefully tell the truth" I said
"alright" said his father-in-law
"and one more, the child in my womb, I have considered as his son Farhan.so when this child is born later, the father has no right to call him as a father's son" I said
"yes, yes, yes, it is up to you" said the father-in-law, who seemed unconcerned by my words
I left my father and went into my room, I didn't want to linger sitting next to such a vile man.even though he was my father-in-law, I've been unwilling to see the face that has stained me and impregnated me.
I don't know why I was so stupid, having served an old man and betrayed my husband.If I had fought him, I would not have been pregnant with my father-in-law's child.
I regretted being a weak woman, who only kept quiet when she was oppressed, I should have kept my honor for my husband. In the room I cried regretting the actions I had done, she said, the sin I hid from my husband made my heart unsettled.
The fear that I feel now, makes me helpless. I pray that my husband does not know the heinous things his father has done to me. in this quiet room, I pray that my husband does not know what heinous things his father has done to me, I wept for forgiveness from the almighty for the sins I had committed all this time.
Because tired of crying made me unconscious, and sleeping with a pillow wet with tears. Farhan came home and saw me sleeping with the remains of my tears.
"yu, get up" said Farhan who was sitting next to me
I woke up and wiped my tears.
"what's wrong with you?" asked Farhan who saw my tears
"m, no. I'm fine" I said
"why are you crying?" ask Farhan again
"i... I also don't know why I'm crying, have you eaten?" I said, trying to divert the conversation
"yet" Farhan replied in a limp tone
"if so, let me prepare a meal for you" said I who got up from the bed
I rushed to the bathroom to wash my face that had been soaked by tears, my heart was already broken.
After I washed my face, I went to the kitchen to prepare food for my husband.I asked Aunt Ida to get me an empty plate.
"Tante, please bring me the empty plate" said I who lifted the rice basin
"where did you take it?" ask Aunt Ida
When I got to my room, I put the basin on the table.
"why did you bring it here?" ask Farhan
"where do you want to eat?" I asked back
"just outside, I take a shower first" said Farhan who went into the bathroom
I brought the basin back out, I put it on the dining table.I went back to the kitchen to help Aunt Ida cook for dinner later.
I cooked with Aunt Ida while telling her, because it would be very tiring if working too seriously.
"Tante" said I
"m" replied Aunt Ida who was busy mixing vegetable spices
"doesn't aunty miss the same old aunt?" ask me
"miss where a mother does not miss her child" replied Aunt Ida
"how did Auntie feel when she first became a mother? ask me again
"why, why are you suddenly asking like that?" Aunt Ida asked back
"there is nothing, I just want to know if I know later when I become a mother, I can follow the example of Aunt" I said
"if you become a mother, you should love your child with affection because a child who has been entrusted to us, will be our charity in the next life" aunty Ida
"do you mean Auntie?, child is our form of worship?" ask me who lacks knowledge
"of course, the child is a gift given to married couples, children are also the cause of many sustenances.if we have children, children are also the cause of, god will give us the same Rizki when we are teenagers" said Aunt Ida
"but what about the people out there?" ask me
"people out there what do you mean?" Aunt Ida is confused
"i mean, are there many who are pregnant out of wedlock, well their child is to be an illegitimate child?" ask me
"why are we talking about things we don't know at all?" ask Aunt Ida
"so that I can get knowledge, which I do not know Auntie" I replied
"a child born to an illegitimate partner cannot be called an illegitimate child because that child is a gift that God gives to a woman. even though the child was born from the womb of an unmarried woman, she is still a sacred and innocent child.The sinner is her parents, who have committed adultery" said Aunt Ida
"that's how Auntie is, so the child is still a child, so she's innocent of what her parents did?" ask me again
"yes, the newborn child is a holy man, a man who has not had the slightest sin. the child will sin when he has entered the name balek" said Aunt Ida
"mmm, great Auntie, can know all that" I said
"hehe, Aunty just hear the words of the cleric, which we must know, after all we are a woman who must be a mother" said Aunt Ida
"owh yeah Aunt forgot, now Auntie has to go to the house of Aunt in-laws, to deposit money for shopping Aunty's children" said Aunty who remembers her son
