My Mother's Tears
Part 79 With deceit
Slowly, Maryati and Tia immediately walked towards the door, from the inside they both continued to hear the sound of the door being knocked, the eyes of the two clashed with each other for hesitating to open it.
While taking a deep breath, Maryati opened the door slowly, after the door was opened, how surprised they were both, it turned out that the one who came at that time was Arman.
“Yes Allah, Bang? what's the matter?” tia asked wanting to know.
“Siiit…! shut up, I'll tell you everything later, now let me in first,” said Arman with a pale face.
“What's up? tell me now Bang, I don't want to incur this much debt.”
“I did poison, but it wasn't their fish pond that I poisoned.”
“Lies, if not their fish pond which belongs to the brother of poison, then why all their fish died as much as three ponds?”
“After I spread the poison, the night fell a heavy rain, then the poisonous water flowed into their pond. That's why those fish are on dead all.”
“At this time everything has happened, it's just that we pay the debt they have determined.”
“How much should we compensate Bu?” ask Arman to know.
“Ten million rupiah.”
“Ten million? that much money, where should we get Bu?”
“Mom don't know, but I promised them, I will report this incident to your family in the village. Who knows, they can all help us in solving this problem.”
“Alright, tomorrow morning, I will take Mom to my village, we will meet my family there.”
Hearing Arman's reply, Maryati's heart was slightly relieved, as she no longer bore such a heavy burden.
In accordance with their agreement, the next day, Maryati with Arman immediately left for her hometown.
Fortunately, at that time there was Arman who accompanied Maryati to her hometown, even though Maryati herself did not know where the real home of Arman.
After a tiring journey, they arrived at a terminal, because to go to the village of Arman they had to ride an angkot, because the road to his village could not be passed by a large car.
While waiting for the departure of the angkot, Maryati saw Arman a little restless, his eyes seemed wild to look around him, Maryati who was innocent not knowing the rotten plan made by Arman.
When all the passengers had started boarding, and the angkotpun was crowded with passengers, then suddenly Arman asked the driver for permission to urinate.
Maryati who saw Arman go down to pee, she could not prevent it, but after a long wait, Arman no longer showed the top of his nose, all the passengers had started to panic and upset.
At that time Maryati did not want to say a word to all of them, for fear, they would scold her.
“Alright, if the child does not return, we just continue our journey,” said the angkot driver.
“Waiting Sir.”
“What's Bu?” ask the angkot driver.
“Only the man who came out earlier, where is he going?”
“Say went to pee, but after we wait, she didn't come back.”
“She's my troubled daughter-in-law, then she must have run away,” Maryati said upsetly.
“Ooo, she's Mom's daughter-in-law?”
“Then, let me get down here only, I have to look for it until I see you.”
“Alright, this is the fare of you two, let me return it,” replied the driver while returning all the car fare paid.
“Bad you are Arman, you are not deceiving people, but you have also deceived your mother,” Maryati muttered annoyed.
Maryati persistently searches for Arman's presence in the vast terminal, but after a long time without seeing her, Maryati cries sadly in front of a food stall.
The owner of the shop was surprised, he thought Maryati was a beggar, and he offered food to Maryati.
“Mother is not a beggar nak,” Maryati said in a soft voice.
“Then why did Mom cry?”
“Mothers in tippu.”
“Hosting Mom herself, she promised to meet Mom with her parents, but when our angkot was about to leave, she went straight out I've been looking for her everywhere, but she wasn't seen.”
“The mother's daughter-in-law must be in hiding.”
“But hiding where? I've even checked and looked for it since.”
“He is a man Ma'am, he has a thousand minds to deceive women. Tell you what, Mother of course is hungry, eat first, later after that, Mother can find Mother's daughter-in-law again later.”
The words of the owner of the stall was also true, after Maryati ate the rice in front of her until it ran out, then she paid for the food.
“No need to pay Mom, I'm sincere kok.”
“Thanks nak.”
“Sama-sama.”
Maryati also left the woman's shop, but before Maryati stepped away, the woman again offered her advice.
“Mother, I don't think it'll do any good, I keep looking for her whereabouts. Maybe he's run away from this terminal, so I'd better just go home. I'm afraid Mom will be rough later.”
“Then what about the debt he has made?”
“Any daughter-in-law Mother has how much debt?”
“Ten million.”
“Yes Allah, wicked once he, on parents.”
“Mom don't have money to pay for it nak.”
“But Mom, it's free that I'm looking for her, right now, maybe she's getting further and further away from here.”
Maryati was so disappointed with the actions of Arman who had deceived her, with pain and anger, Maryati returned home.
All the way Maryati kept crying non-stop. All the passengers on Maryati's right and left were astonished to see Maryati crying.
“Mother why cry?” ask a woman about it.
“Mother got cheated nak.”
“Because of trickery? who has cheated Mom?”
“Hosting Mother herself.”
“What has he tricked?”
“She ran away from Mom, while at the terminal earlier. Though I do not know the way home,” answered Maryati lying.
Because he doesn't want everyone to know about Arman's ugliness.
“Then who has helped Mom find a car earlier?”
“The stalls around the terminal were.”
“Ooo, so.”
When Maryati arrived at her house, she was still crying sadly, Tomi and Tia who always saw the return of the two of them, got Maryati to come home alone in a state of tears.
“Why did Mom go home alone? where's Bang Arman?” tia asked impatiently.
“Your husband, has run away, he left Mom at the terminal alone.”
“Yes Allah, Bang Arman, why would you do such a thing to me and my Mother.”
Not only was Maryati looking sad and crying, Tia also felt the same, the pain was like it had weighed on her shoulders back then.
