Patience of the Heart Wulan
Chapter 18_

Along the way Wulan circulated his gaze staring out the window. His gaze was wrestling over the attitude and significant changes in Damar.

Ms. Leni was curious about the blue bag forming boxes like food containers that Wulan was holding. "That's what Wulan is?"

Wulan shifted her attention. He saw the netra Mbak Leni who glanced at the blue bag. "It's lunch for Damar."

Brother Leni berehm-ehm cheerful. "Ehem.. wah Bumil very attention to Mas Damar?"

Wulan blushed in embarrassment, her hands reflexively raised to slip her hair between the ears. "Poor Brother Len. Damar hasn't had breakfast yet."

"How come it hasn't had breakfast?" Mbak Leni asked pitched like surprised.

Wulan shifted his attention to look straight ahead of the road, he saw and then passed motor vehicles and cars. He took a deep breath, and then looked down. Now his eyes saw the blue bag where he brought lunch for Damar. Recalling the quarrel this morning, his heart was disappointed.

Seeing the response of Wulan who was silent and like he was holding the pressure. Leni felt the question was wrong. He then chose silence, and waited for Wulan to tell him herself.

Wulan knew Mbak Leni for almost two months he lived in the countryside. Mbak Leni is the son of the owner of the goat etawa, began to know Mbak Leni because a month ago the one-child woman was roving peddling pure goat milk etawa. And Wulan was a customer, since then, he often exchanged stories and found out if Mbak Leni could drive a car.

"Mak Leni...?" Wulan called the woman who had been married eight years. Maybe with a little storytelling will find learning from the problems he is facing at this time and must behave how with Damar who suddenly changed.

"Hem what?" Mbak Leni glanced at Wulan and focused on driving the steering wheel.

Wulan twisted her straw finger. He briefly looked at Mbak Leni and then laughed his gaze at the streets. "Didn't Mba Leni's husband ever not pay attention or say harshly when Ms Leni asked, or like when she was pregnant?"

Leni frowned, but she understood that maybe Wulan was having problems with Damar. "Often, I'm the same my husband often checks from the beginning we get married even," Leni caught a glimpse of Wulan's sad face. "Why, is Mas Damar being inconsiderate with you?" Mbak Leni said guess.

"Mr Leni's guess didn't miss." Wulan confirmed the words of the woman who was five years older than him. He took a long breath. "I don't know what kind of way to deal with the changes that have happened with Damar in recent days. He's so different, like he's not my husband's Damar." The voice again sounded raucous.

"Maybe he's a lot of work, or there's a problem at the factory?"

Wulan. "Don't know Ma'am, but the reality is now another. We used to talk about it together, and now he won't even listen to me."

"Wulan in the household relationship, as we say see orange fruit orange, very tempting eyes until we think that the orange is sweet. But who could have guessed it, after being peeled and it tastes very sour. Well we just have to choose, want to continue to eat it or throw it away?"

Wulan was speechless at Lena's explanation. He thought what Mbak Leni said was right.

"But obviously, you should be more patient Wulan. I think, if your husband is acting like a fire, then you should be able to be water that cools. But remember, you do not be provoked by the fire, because the water could boil and hurt you both. Which, when described, would be a greater dispute."

Mbak Leni gave a description of the proper attitude that is done if one of the couples there is an emotion provoking. That's what she did to her husband.

Wulan listened carefully to the words of Mbak Leni. "Mbak Leni is right. I need to be more patient in responding to Damar's change of attitude, so maybe I know better what the problem is."

Mbak Leni nodded small. "really it. Patience Wulan heart, may sweet fruit. Be a strong woman, don't whine and don't whine, as long as the rice hasn't become porridge, we must prevent something that leads us to something worse."

"Thank you, Leni, now my feelings are relieved." Wulan smiled faintly looking at the woman who was pinning her hair upwards.

Meremassing the strong blue bag, Wulan felt even more afraid when the ghostly apparition seemed to approach him. He closed his eyes, and shouted. "Itahhhh...."

Mbak Leni was surprised to hear Wulan's screams. "What's Wulan?"

Wulan's breathing was wheezing, as if she had just run a marathon. He ventured to open his eyes and the appearance of a very creepy ghost was no longer there.

Mbak Leni reached out her left hand holding the sweaty hand of Wulan. "Wulan why are you? What's up, why are you yelling?"

Wulan flinched with a touch of Mbak Leni's hand.

"No pa-pa Ma'am, I'm just thinking of something unpleasant." Kilah Wulan, he did not want others to consider his story taboo that had seen spooky sightings in broad daylight.

"Just sleep Lan, it's still half an hour away. When I get there, I wake up." Says Mbak Leni giving advice, not without reason. Because Wulan was trembling and when he had held this pregnant hand sweating.

Wulan nodded at the words of Mbak Leni. He closed his eyes, even though he was not sleeping. "Is it possible that I saw this spooky sighting just my hallucination? But why is it so real? And where do ghosts appear during the day?"

**

The car driven by Mbak Leni entered the factory's spacious courtyard.

Leni's mother looks at Wulan who seems to be fast asleep. It is not enough to wake up. By the time his hand stretched out to wake Wulan, this pregnant woman was already writhing and a second later opened her eyes.

"Have you reached Ma'am?" Wulan circulated her gaze looking outside from the car glass.

"Here, just arrived." Reply Ms. Leni.

Wulan shifted his attention now staring at Mbak Leni. "Mak Leni wants to come with me in what are you waiting here for?"

"I'll just wait here." Leni's mother flicked her hand so Wulan wouldn't have to think about it. Seen by him, the employees also seemed to gather while enjoying lunch at some point where the canteen area and location in the shade as under the tree. "Here you go, it's lunchtime. Remember, you have to be patient. Facing a husband is difficult easy, if we as a wife a little possessive ntar thought to curb, if jealousy ntar thought not to believe. I'm patient and confident."

"Yes, Brother Leni. I'll remember all of Leni's advice. Then I'll go down first." Wulan looked at Mbak Leni and found the one-child woman nodding.

Wulan got out of the car and traveled past some employees and coworkers who greeted her kindly. As the wife of the President of Amanah food, then when the road in the factory area was many employees who greeted him.

In front of the building that served as an office, Wulan saw a security guard named Sanip. He answered the greeting of the security guard who opened a wide glass door for him. Then entered into the office lobby there, Wulan met with Bokir who was still working alongside Damar.

Bokir is shocked to see Wulan's arrival at the office. In his heart he was monologuing. "Well danger, when Wulan sees Damar."
