Their laughter seemed to have thrown dirt on the face of Maryati, the woman who had three children, could only shed tears.
After finishing drawing water, washing the house, mopping the floor and others, Maryati then told to cook. While cooking, Maryati they always press, there are Maryati mistakes that make them upset and angry.
The head that should be respected, only they made the material of the game, the head was often bent Tomi family, floor, shirt and even to the wall if Maryati made a little mistake.
At Tomi's house, Tia and Leni looked so thin, what else Leni, just like a malnourished child, let alone to play, to stand alone, Leni was not even able to lift her legs.
How not, the Tomi family almost every day tortures them all, let alone to give nutritious food, to eat everyday they do not want to give it.
After they had finished eating, the leftovers were what Maryati had gathered for her three children.
That morning when Bima was sweeping the front yard of the house, a neighbor called out to her. At first Bima refused to go to the mother, but because the woman continued to force her, Bima finally came to the old woman.
“Hey, you're Tomi's son huh?” ask the woman when approached by Bima.
“True Bu, I'm Bima.”
“Wah nice name.”
Hearing the praise of the old woman, Bima looked down in embarrassment, then Bima ventured, sitting next to the woman.
“You can speak minang?” ask the woman again.
“Ngak Bu.”
“So, while in Jakarta, you only speak Indonesian?”
“Iya Ma'am, but if my mother speaks Javanese.”
“Your mother is Javanese?”
“Iya Bu.”
“Mom noticed since you came to this house, you guys look skinny and pale.”
Bima just silently heard the response from the old woman, because Bima did not dare to answer it.
“Why are you silent, you are afraid of Mayar and her sisters?”
“Iya Ma'am. They all always tortured my mother.”
“ Torturing your Mother? fast, since you guys are here, I've never seen your mother out of the house.”
“My mother, they made slaves for here.”
“Then where are your sisters?”
“They are inside, both of them are currently sick, because they are not all feeding us Bu.”
“What! Your grandmother didn't feed you?”
“But Mom don't tell them, they'll torture my mom again.”
“Iya Ibu know. Where's your dad now?”
“Surely he is playing gambling.”
“You're going too far Yung, how could you torture your wife and children.”
“This morning, have you eaten son?”
“But Bu.”
“Come inside, I have rice and side dishes for you,” said the woman as she pulled Bima's hand to enter her house.
“No need Mom, later if caught Aunt how?”
“You don't have to be afraid, later Mother in charge.”
With a heavy heart, Bima also entered the woman's house, on the table, the woman served a plate of rice complete with side dishes and vegetables.
When she was about to eat the rice, Bima remembered her mother and her two sisters who were starving. His hand was stopped instantly, then Bima undo his intention to eat the rice.
“Why not eat Bima?”
“If you don't mind, the rice please wrap it up, later let me eat with my two sisters.”
“Carely?”
“Iya nak.”
Bima was very happy to hear the words of the mother, Bima greedily ate the rice in her plate quickly.
“Quiet son, eat it do not need to rush.”
“Let's if my Aunt calls how's Bu?”
“You need not worry, I will answer it later.”
Only then did Bima eat the rice slowly after she knew, that the Mother who was with her would be responsible if her aunt came.
“I'm full Bu.”
“Good, this is rice for your sisters, you take it home and feed them both.”
"Okay, thank you."
“Sama-sama nak.”
While taking a deep breath the woman continued to look at Bima until she disappeared behind the door of her house.
“You turned out to be cruel Leli, I did not expect at all, if you and your daughter agreed to do evil to your own daughter-in-law,” muttered the woman slowly.
While Bima, who was carrying a pack of rice, immediately gave the rice to her mother at home.
“Mother I have food for you.”
“Where did you get this food from, nak?” ask Maryati to know.
“The mother in front of the house gave me food Bu.”
“Alhamdulillah,” said Maryati while opening the rice wrap.
Quickly, then Maryati bribed her two daughters, while Bima just looked at her with a sense of haru and concern.
“You didn't eat nak?” ask Maryati to Bima.
“No Ma'am, that mother gave me a plate of rice earlier.”
“But you don't come there often, son, later if your Aunt knows, she will hurt you.”
“Iya Bu,” replied Bima in a soft voice.
Just a few mouthfuls of rice entered the body of Tia and Leni, suddenly Jihan came and took the rice from Maryati's grasp and threw it out of the house, so that the rice was scattered.”
“Ya Allah Bi, it turns out that the ugliness of your heart in this house is the same, you turned out to have a heart of Satan,” said Bima while pushing Jihan's body to stagger back.
“What the fuck are you! do you want to kill me?”
“Aunti who wanted to kill my mother and my two sisters, you are so hearty, just like a non-religious person.”
“Shut up! shut your ugly mouth! thank goodness we were in this house. Otherwise, you guys would be bums.”
“Actually me and my mother can't stand living in this house either, we want to go home to Jakarta, but it's your brother who always keeps us here.”
Tia and Leni, who saw their quarrel at the time, could only cry in Maryati's arms. Likewise, Maryati can only shed tears at any time.
That night after playing gambling, Tomi asked Mary to serve him, the weak and helpless woman, unable to refuse her husband's request.
At that time Tomi knew that his wife was so tormented living with his mother and sisters, but Judi had blinded his eyes.
One month later, Maryati became pregnant. He vomited and had a high fever, Bima who thought his mother caught wind she also tried to give various kinds of drugs, so that her mother's fever could heal.
