Asti Girl Carrying the Curse
Chapter 208. Mr. Basuki's request
" Ma, how did Papa know about Mas Leon talking about Almira?"
" From his cousin who worked at the local government in the city. The trial attracted a lot of people's attention. Until there is an acquaintance Om Adit who recognizes Leon at the last hearing, because his lawsuit was won by him ! She said Almira would be locked up in jail long enough for her mistake!"
" In fact, Asti didn't bother about it, Ma! As long as Almira wants to apologize, that's enough. But Joko did not accept! It is seen that the influence of Almira is very attached to his friend and mother... Through his fiancee his best friend, Joko and Pak Cakra got the address of Almira. Also assisted by a good lawyer... Mr. Mahendra Suwondo said, Almira's actions have disrupted the peace of our family..."
"Who, should Almira have to think long first if you want to do something! Especially to harm others. Yes, can be prosecuted! Our country is a country of laws, right? Joko is right! Almira is not to be loved! Said Guide Almira was eleven twelve with Celine!" Said Mother Anggun upset.
" This is why his father was thinking so much when Leon married Celine... The football lunge, has greatly dropped the good name of our family... If not both of his brothers intervened with the problem. Of course Leon is still tied to marriage with the woman. Stylish like a high-class woman, pretentious to do business often shopping abroad, it turns out to be having an affair with someone's husband! What with a model wife like that Leon has to maintain his marriage?"
Graceful Mother looked at Asti gently." You've changed a lot Leon, Asti! Especially in his religious life... So Papa supports Leon a lot by giving him greater responsibility. Like giving him that housing development project. It worked enough!"
Qani awoke to hear his grandmother and mother talking just before dawn. The baby quickly crawled closer to the bed. Graceful Mother laughed with her granddaughter's movements.
He immediately carried her. While peeking at Qani's cheeks and forehead... While Asti prepares formula milk for the baby. The baby fell asleep again after being full. While dawn Azan sayup-sayup began to sound from a distance.
Activities in the house began to sound from the front of the room. There was a Lady who was preparing breakfast for all of them. Last night Ms Anggun asked to make chicken porridge, which was easy to digest before she left for the hospital to see her husband. After Qani wakes up, Asti will follow him to the hospital. Because Bu Jum can handle all the Qani affairs he left behind for a few hours in this house.
Ms. Jum had already taken a shower and tidied up the place she was sleeping in last night....Soon Anggun's mother received a report from the hospital that her husband's condition had stabilized. But the doctor still asked Mr. Murti to stay for at least two days in the treatment room, so that his health can always be monitored by a team of doctors who had handled his heart surgery.
Ms. Mesya will look after her father this morning, while Dimas and Leon are coming home. The journey takes about 30 minutes to get home.
Qani was immediately carried by Leon, when he met his son was nurtured by Bu Jum on the front porch. The little baby was very happy to be embraced and admired by his father. The taste of the kangennya is cured.
Asti and Graceful Mother were moved to see so much love and affection for Leon to the girl. Unfortunately, the father demanded that Leon must have more than one child. So that Leon's sense of responsibility is getting bigger so that his household runs safe and lasting.
These two days, Asti and Leon took turns to keep Mr. Murti in the hospital. Asti will come during the day after taking care of Qani and handing over the care to Bu Jum. While Bu Anggun came early again, so that he could replace Leon, or his son-in-law Mas Pandu who stood guard at night. Although their families can also afford a professional nurse to take turns to keep watch and take care of Mr. Murti while getting treatment in the hospital. But the cure for the old man was the presence of family members who continued to accompany him during his illness.
He knew his grandson was at his house. The man also asked the doctors to be treated for walking! Because he also has some grandchildren who are already quite large.... But they are all preoccupied with a variety of busy school activities.
Not to mention activities outside of school. Starting who take foreign language lessons in a course, there are those who join the bill for exam preparation. Even his grandson from Mbak Mesya went to a modern boarding school near Magelang.
So if his grandchildren do not have a long day off from school or boarding school where they study, they cannot visit him. Even though his house with the house of Mbak Mesya is still in a housing complex.
In the courtyard of the hospital Qani carried Leon. The beautiful baby enjoyed playing in the hospital garden. Bu Jum sat in a corner of the park with a stroller in his hand.
" Later, wait for Asti here, yeah. Ma'am Jum!"
" Yes, Mr. Leon!"
Leon will take Qani briefly to his father's ward. They will take turns to take care. Qani will return home with Asti and Anggun's Mother.
Mr. Murti was moved to see the beautiful baby sitting next to him for a while. " Tomorrow Qani plays at home with Eyang, huh?"
" Papa can go home, Ma'am a doctor?" ask Asti worriedly.
" Why, again? If you want that, your father-in-law is very stubborn, Asti! It doesn't matter that he's been retired for more than ten years as a soldier. All willpower cannot be denied!"
Tampa realized, Asti's hand grabbed the hand of Graceful Mother and pressed down firmly. As a sign he was also concerned.
Since morning Mr. Murti has asked the doctor to be treated at home... While one by one the tools and hoses attached to his body have been removed. Only an oxygen tube and an infusion hose were attached to his arm.
They were taken back home by Dimas... While Dimas will return after Magrib.The young man will bring a variety of food prepared by ART in this house, for the people who look after Mr. Murti.
Mas Pandu had complained because he was getting bored with all the cooking in the hospital canteen. Although the body is healthy, in fact the cuisine sold there was also less affected on his tongue. Be the Graceful Mother who offers her ART for cooking... Unlike Asti and Leon who will eat whatever they can find in the cafeteria.
The next morning Asti was surprised by the noise behind the kitchen, precisely in the laundry room and drying clothes ... Ms. Jum has since yesterday asked Ms. Anggun for permission to use the washing machine in the house to wash all dirty clothes belonging to her employer. Of Asti's clothes, Mr. Leon and most of the little ones. It turned out that Mbak Tia was scolding Bu Jum.. Until that fight.
" What's up, Ma'am Tia?" ask Asti.
The woman who is believed to take care of all household affairs in the family home is still angry and left in front of Bu Jum. I don't know why since yesterday the young woman kept insinuating Bu Jum. Especially if there is no Graceful Mother. Because in the house there are only two women who are employed as ART and two ART men to clean - clean the house, wash the car and take care of the park.
" Tell me, Madam Asti! So that guy don't be such a moron, anyway!"
Asti was shocked by the language of young women who felt so rude... Bu Jum is older than him and should be respected.
" What happened to Bu Jum, Ms Tia?.
" Yes, using the washing machine does not say the same to me, my laundry is also a lot of this, Ma'am! That's the soap Mom bought specifically for this washing machine ... Buy your own cake, play with it. Village people don't want capital!"
" Mom Jum, who's doing the laundry?" Asti finally gave up. Asti does not want to find a storm in this house of in-laws.
" Mast Asti and Mas Leon's laundry!"
"We wash our hands, Ma'am Jum. Understandably who have it can not be.." whispered Asti.
Upset Asti looked at the woman who might be only two or three years old on top of her. But since yesterday he nagged - nagging if asked a little help by him. Understand though he's the daughter-in-law in this family but only a guest. So all the requests for help seem to only add to the task!
"Yok Bu Jum's...I help! While using detergent soap belonging to Qani first...Later if we go out of the house we look for detergent to wash clothes in the nearest mini market or stall."
Ma'am Tia's face was grumbling. Without another objection! He immediately walked out of the laundry room... A stay of more than two days in Semarang is also beyond their original planning. Moreover, Mr. Murti's health condition is also not stable... So they have to wash dirty clothes that have been piled up a lot. They brought a little change of clothes.
Leon who was looking for the whereabouts of Asti so surprised to see his wife was helping Bu Jum wash clothes using his hands... He also saw Asti drying the clothes using a quarry that Dimas made while in the backyard.
Leon stared at the huffiness of Mbak Tia who had entered his room. While the mother is looking after Qani with Mbak Siti. Only that woman has worked in this house for a long time, serving in the kitchen and cooking.
