RICH MAN
IN-LAW VISIT

That afternoon, Rey returned home early as usual since Marwa was in her cravings. His parents who had not even returned home, it became a privilege for him if he left his wife alone. 

Aunty immediately prepared a drink for him, while there his wife was listening to the twins teaching in the family room. A place where they gather every day. After marriage, the task of teaching his two sisters to teach was transferred to Marwa. Because he couldn't spend any more time on it. 

Rey smiled when his wife was so patient with the twins when she was teaching. Both of them who often scramble when depositing rote, it has been a habit of his sister all this time. Even before marriage.

"Have you come home? I'm sorry I didn't see Mas coming home" Marwa said, trying to get up. Although his stomach is not yet visible, Rey swiftly forbids his wife from waking up. Instead, he approached the woman and shook hands. Unlike his sister who from last night did not reprimand him since the incident. Marwa had reminded him not to act like that to his two younger siblings, but instead he could do nothing. Instead he locked the twins' room all night. At midnight his sister banged on the door, Rey grew increasingly unconcerned. 

In the morning, the two refused to go to school. "So, I'm sorry, you guys are so vengeful. Who is teaching?" said Rey. But his sister remained focused on his reading. Marwa smiled then shook her head, she stroked Rey's back. 

"Of right, go in the room! I want to go ahead first. Mama called, she said she wanted to go home today. Still shopping, he said," 

"He called you?" 

"Yes, he asked me what I wanted. So out he said," 

"What do you order?" 

"Not to eat anything," 

Rey really felt very sorry for his wife, if she could be moved. It's better he feels all that. Seeing Marwa's weight falling dramatically, Rey frowned. If he makes his wife suffer, Rey prefers that he alone feels the cravings. Even though I would feel the same. But a woman's suffering can't just end. Especially later when his wife's stomach has grown, the burden will be carried everywhere. 

The man sat on the couch while his wife was down while still listening to the twins. He stroked his wife's head, smelling Marwa's shampoo, which still smelled so vividly. 

"Why does it hurt so much? I can't bear it" he whispered as he tried to grab the stomach of his sedan wife sitting below him. 

"Bath, keep coming back later. I'm still listening to these two, it will come down!" 

With a heavy heart, Rey spent the drink that had been prepared by the aunt just then moved from her seat to return to the room. Cleansing his body from the perspiration that was still sticky on his body. 

Seeing Nabila who was relaxing, Rey always had an idea to tease her sister. He deliberately stuck out his tongue in front of Nabila who was launching his memorization. Nabila says it's Papa loh later," 

"Sister is afraid? One more thing, don't make it up to the same brother, cuckoo," 

"Who is famous? The brother who stuck out his tongue from earlier. That's why you don't keep going, if you say that someone often sticks out his tongue," 

Rey pursed her lips and rolled her eyes to disturb Nabila. She was still upset by her annoying sister's behavior. Why should Nabila be a sister when Salsabila body is bigger than Nabila? 

"Sir Marwa, Rey's sister began to recalcitrate again," said Nabila reported to Marwa who from earlier listening to Salsablila. 

"Mas dong! Candidate Papa can not disturb his sister, later our children bullied them, did Mas want?" 

Rey turned around and looked at Marwa with a dislike look because his wife said so. "No," 

After taking a bath and dressed casually, Rey lay on the sofa eating a lollipop and playing games. His sister had finished her rote. Even then his wife's thighs he made as a cushion for his head. 

"Mas, tomorrow so go to Mama's house?" 

Rey was silent for a moment when she heard his wife's words. "Related?" 

"Yes, kangen. Every time we promise, it's always off. I hope it won't be canceled again, Mom. Kangen,"

Rey is playing online games on her phone, she doesn't care about her idyllic speech. Even he did not respond at all. "Silver was invited to talk even silent," Salsabila who was working on PR at that time also talked with them. 

"Yes, tomorrow I will go there" he replied to his sister. 

"Assalamu'alaikum," 

"Wa'alaikumussalam," answered the three taking turns. Rey was very familiar with the voice, it was the voice of her parents who as Marwa said that the two would be home that afternoon as well. 

Seen from the look on the face of his father who was so tired and looked like he did not sleep at all. 

"Papa's so tangled," 

"Oma sick what, Pa?" 

"Oma you fell in the toilet, Rey. His feet were sprained, to see you, he said. If you can, you stop by. Not just at home. You're not the same Oma you are?" 

"But right, Marwa's home alone, Pa?" 

"Rey, got a wife. It does not mean you forget your main family. Now you have a wife, so you forgot about Oma you did? Oma wants to meet you, miss talking to you. Rey, even when you have a child, and when Oma is given the longevity to meet her great-grandson, you are still a child to Oma. Until you have any child, you will remain like a child in front of your parents, or your Oma," 

Rey got up from where she lay and glanced at her mother. "Mama why?" 

"Mama is nothing, just Mama pity see Papa. You're going to see Oma tomorrow! Poor her to meet you, let Marwa be with Mama first, she can not afford to go to the house of Oma right," Nagita who saw her husband passed just trying to understand. There are so many concerns that this man faces. Afraid that God would take her mother, even on the road, her husband would always tell her about those fears. Little by little Nagita understood that loss was the saddest. 

Marwa and her mother left from there. While Rey continues to play mobile to eliminate a little concern. 

About fifteen minutes later, his father came down from his room. Nabila and Salsabila immediately pursued his papa. 

"Pa, why does Papa and Mama live with us?" nabila whine. 

"Why really? It's Rey's sister Marwa," 

"Pa, yesterday we wanted to bust with Marwa, but Rey's sister couldn't help it, and we were told to get out of her room, Pa. That's it, we're locked up until dawn with Rey's sister" Salsabila reported.

His father sat down with Rey. "Rey, Papa doesn't like it when you lock your sister in the room. Papa never did that even though they were both wrong. Papa's always trying to get them all right. What if anything happens? You didn't see it on the news and the other one, his son was locked up. The house is on fire, so what? His son can't be saved, Papa doesn't want you to do it again," 

"Rasain, angry with Papa," Nabila mocked him. Rey wakes up from her sleep and takes a good sitting position from talking to her own parents. Rey nodded. There's no way he's fighting his dad. 

Tong Ting

Marwa came out to open the door. Marwa's call was so loud when she said the words mama and papa. It was believed by Rey that the guest was the mertunya. 

"Duh, my in-laws, Pa," he said in a panic. 

"Page dong," 

Rey got up from her seat, just as she was about to approach. Rey remembers her shorts and t-shirts. "Gosh, pants," Rey turned around and immediately ran into the room flushed. 

Azka welcomed Marwa's parents so well and invited her to sit down. 

"By the way, Rey did you run?" ask papa Marwa. 

Azka was trying to explain why her son had run just now when he was about to shake hands. "That was Rey wearing shorts. So he changed it like that," 

"Well, these two, why never go home? Mama same Papa very hungry, especially now Marwa cravings. Our first grandchild, isn't he, Ma?" papa Marwa said convincingly. 

Rey came down from her room in casual clothes but was more polite than before. He immediately shook hands and kissed the backs of Marwa's parents' hands. 

"You know, you have succeeded in conceiving Papa's child, even do not want to bring Marwa home. You married her, but Papa's time can't meet his own children" said his father-in-law. Rey scratched her non-itchy head.

"Sorry, Pa. I've been busy lately," 

"Marwa kurusan" said his mother-in-law. Rey who heard that felt like she was getting a blow from her mother-in-law.

"Nobody can get in, Ma," 

"What are you wearing?" 

"Marwa eats the same soup every day, Ma. Made with my mom, sometimes it's her turn. Because she knew that being made with Auntie was different, so vomiting again if we weren't the two cooking," 

"Duh, Rey. I'm sorry to have taken you out" replied his mother-in-law. 

"Some of it is his actions, so it must be a responsibility, Ma'am," he said. Rey panned with an annoyed look with the answer from her papa.
