Mom for Aira
Chapters 18.

"Is this Arka's wife and son?"

"She ma'am, this is Zea, Arka's wife, and this is our son Aira." Arka explained.

Zea smiled at the mother.

"Massyaalloh, the sinter of the Arka mas chose a wife.." praise the mother.

"His name is also a soul mate ma'am." replied Arka.

"Hehe heh, mba Zea what age, looks very young?" kepo's that mother.

"Nineteen ma'am." replied Zea.

"What, nineteen, how many years has Aira been, maybe you moved here for fear of hearing that Aira was an out-of-wedlock child?"

Zea really wanted to run away from that mother right now. Zea was inexhaustible with the words of the mother who was so slippery and did not think about the feelings of her interlocutor.

Yep they are taking an afternoon walk, around the 'complex'.

"Aira it's my son with my first wife ma'am." explained Arka.

"Who is Zea's wife?" keponya again.

"Second wife ma'am, I'm sorry ma'am excuse me, come on...."

Arka purposely told the mother, because he did not want to until his wife hurt to hear the words of the mother's slippers.

Then Arka hurried to take Zea away from the presence of the mother.

"You didn't see Ze?" asked Arka, afraid that Zea would be offended by the mother's question.

"No papa ko mas, just a little annoyed just now." he said.

"Oh yeah, by the way, do the neighbors know the same anyway?"

This is what had been stirring up Zea's mind since this morning when a neighbor greeted her husband.

"And the same rice fields here, behind our house...."

"Oh yeah?"

"She, what a lie, yu yujutin...."

"Come....."

They went on their way, that is.

...................

"You need it.." point Aira at the traveling pentol salesman the kids are in contact with.

"May, a moment papah buyin.." said Arka.

"Yes..."

"Darling to get hurt?" ask Arka to Zea.

"Yes, get three spoons...."

"Ready sweetheart...."

Arka went to the pentol man.

Five minutes later, Arka had returned to where Zea and Aira were, with a crackle containing a pentol in his right hand.

"We're going home..."

"Yes mas...."

The three of them continued their steps towards home.

................. ...........

"Heheheh... hehehe.." Aira's laughter filled their room, as Zea and Arka anxiously tickled her belly.

"Geli mah, pah." said Aira.

"Geli ya baby?" repeat Zea while drowning her face in Aira's stomach.

"Yes...."

Dert dert

Shakes Arka's phone, forcing her owner to check on her.

Reluctantly, Arka walks out of their room, so that Aira does not see her while she is playing the phone.

After it was felt Aura could not see it, Arka immediately checked her phone, it turned out that her trusted person contacted her.

"Hello....."

"........"

"What"

"......... "

"I've been there now....."

After that Arka turned off her phone.

Gegas Arka walked towards his room back.

"Darling to go first to the village of Randu...."

"Emang wants to do it, it's already night..."

"There is a burning mas plantation, already yes mas departs Assalamu'alaikum.." walked hastily.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, be careful mas...."

"Honey for a moment, you want to open the door first.." she said to Aira.

"It's mah...."

Zea rushed towards the main door of their house.

"May all be well." hoped Zea as she locked the door.

Then Zea went back to her room.

.........................

Arka drove his car at high speed.

His mind was raging, thinking of his chili plantation.

10 Minutes later, Arka arrived at the destination.

So many people were passing by carrying water in buckets. Hoping for the red jago who devoured their plantation to be extinguished soon.

Arka was struggling with that feeling I don't know, towards her farm.

His feet suddenly felt so limp, as if the joints on his knees had just slipped apart, when he saw that the entire chili plant had been burned.

"Mas Arka.." call Mr. Latif, Arka confidant.

"Why is this so sir?" ask Arka lirih.

"Jangung plantation owners burned the land, unexpectedly the fire even grew as the wind blew......"

Usually if the land will be replaced by plants, the land will be burned first, so that the land is fertile again.

But fate befell the owners of corn plantations whose land is right next to the right of the Arka chili plantation.

When he burned the remains of the mangung plants on his land, the wind blew strong, so that the fire that burned his land blazed and continued to spread to other lands. In addition to this dry season, many plants that begin to dry lack water, so it is flammable.

"Astaghfirullah azim thing.." - cf. Arka, restraining emotions.

"Then what about the owner of the corn land, does he want to be responsible?"

"She claimed she would be responsible for burning plants, but only her initial capital....."

"What, why could it be, he should be responsible for all his losses dong" Arka said, exasperated.

How not to be irritated, the chili plants are almost harvest, just wait another two weeks, but even burned.

Though it is estimated when the price of chili peppers in the market is soaring up, because farmers already rarely have it, because they are planting their land with corn and peanuts.

"Maybe he was not having any money, anyways that the land burned not only have the Ark mas, but a lot....."

"Huftttt.." sighed.

"Yes I want to go home, please take care of ya...."

"Yes mas...."

Arka walked gontai to where his car was parked.

Jeglex. The car door is open.

"Huftt.." many times Arka sighed, neutralizing her anger.

Then Arka drove around her sub-district, venting her anger. He did not want to get home still carrying anger, Arka was afraid that he could not hold it and instead threw it on Zea.

Two hours Arka had gone around, amarhanya had also subsided.

"Alhamdulillah.." Thank goodness Arka.

"Time to go home....."

......................... .........

Zea was so agitated as she waited for her husband to come home, she was afraid that something bad might happen to her husband.

"Astaghfirullah azim thing, O Allah remove these bad thoughts from the mind of the servant." he explained.

With the sound of the roar of the car engine that Zea memorized approached, making Zea immediately open the main door of his house.

Sure enough, it was the sound of her husband's car.

"Assalamu'alaikum.." said Arka.

"Wa'alaikumussalam, mas.." shook her husband's hand.

"You haven't slept, baby?"

"Where would I sleep if my husband left the house in a hurry." explains Zea.

"I'm sorry, honey....."

"Yes, let's go in...."

Arka came in.

Arka immediately sat leaning on the living room sofa.

"Would I make you some tea?"

"Byeah, that's sweet yeah...."

"Ready mas...."

Zea immediately passed to her kitchen.

Zea has deliberately not asked what really happened. He wanted to wait for the right time to ask that.
