Love Needs Debt
Past Times

Past Times

Juna looked at Gani, with a sharp look, he was offended at the seemingly condescending remark.

“Nothing means, I'm just saying about the truth, right, you have debt?” juna said again.

“Who said?” Gani tries to defend himself, although, in fact, it is true that he has debt, but, it is not appropriate for others to raise problems that are not his business at all. Moreover, he wants to be responsible.

“Udahlah, you do not need to know who is telling, but, you need to know if you have to pay off your debt!” Juna laughed, “You yourself said to me, if you have debt, right? That's why you go home and sell dams!”

Gani does not expect that Juna will spread his disgrace in front of everyone, who became his new friends at this time.

“Iya! What if I have debt? What matters is that I take responsibility! Moreover, I do not owe the same Mr. Juna!”

“Well, it's good that you confessed, lest you want to withdraw Bu Usfi's heart so that you can pay the debt!” Juna half whispered as he said that.

“Aataghfirullah! Sir, I do have debts, but I am not a poor person to beg, I have absolutely no such intention! Don't accuse me, sir! Those untrue allegations could be slanderous!”

Gani really did not expect that Juna, it turns out to have a chatty mouth. He was also surprised, why there are men who are chatty like Juna.

“I'll tell you, yes Gan. If you are not poor, you cannot have debt!”

“Many rich people also owe!”

“I'm rich, I don't have debt! Not like you, already have debt, do not want to be said poor!”

“Listen yes, Mr. Juna. You can insult people because you are rich! People's fate may change, sir! Wealth belongs to God, and poverty is not contemptible, religion alone tells its people to give alms to the poor, if the poor are contemptible why does religion order that? The contemptible is not poverty but, vanity!” said Gani while holding back growled.

“Already, Gan! Comeing! More work there ...!” joko said he broke up the two adults who were fighting, and pulled Gani back to his original position.

Gani continued his work with a sense of unease between shame and being forced to be there. How not to be embarrassed, if everyone knows that he has a debt and goes home because he wants to sell a dam.

While Juna had already left with his vehicle, with a feeling of regret for not expecting to make Gani so angry. From the beginning, he was just joking.

Usfi saw everything and suddenly he felt sorry for Gani, who was directly exposed to his disgrace by Juna. But he thought, that what happened today is the will of God as well, whether the wisdom that Gani can pick after the trials as now.

Until the working hours are over, Gani finally came home on foot like when he left earlier. He had not seen Usfi at his workplace, not even when the woman had left.

But when he reached the middle of the road between the post and his house, Gani saw a Usfi car parked on the side of the road. The woman was seen talking to a teenage girl. Two women stand in the back of the car looking at each other.

“So, from now on don't ever accuse Auntie again. Actually Auntie does not want to talk about this, but Sister always accuses Auntie!” usfi said, her voice trembling like holding back a cry.

“Tante too, wrong! Kan, I promised Mama to take care of Papah!”

“Noura .. right, already Aunty clearlyin from the beginning, everyone has a weakness, Aunt has tried her best, even if in the end Papah still looking for other women, kept Aunt can what?”

“Yes, prevent cake, find out cake, so?”

“Noura! The photo of the aunt, one of the proofs too, Tente did not just shut up, knew Papa with other women. Thank God there are people who tell Auntie. So, do not have to bother spying on a husband with suspicion, it should not be in religion, let alone Aunt believe in Papa.”

“Why does Aunt just believe that?”

“Salah Aunt anyway, why let go, will finally Papa ease!”

“Ah, stop! If you know it finally happened like this, it should not be just Aunt who was wronged, but, Mama you too!”

“Tante!  Why is it that Mamah is being wronged, anyway? Tau kayak gini, mama mama do not have to agree aunt Papa all, free!”

“You should have said the same Mama dong don't keep turning on Auntie kayak gini!”

“No, if Mamah has done her best!”

Usfi silent.

“Mama is still sick until now, it could be because of thinking Papah.”

“Loh, Ma'am still sick?” ask Usfi wonder.

“Iya. You may know about Papa, but buried by yourself like first, so aja continued pain does not heal.”

“Patient sister takes care of Mama ... Yes already, there come home later mama confused findin Sister.”

“Gak, I told you I want to meet Auntie!”

“Yes, now satisfied with it?”

“Not yet, still wonder the same Aunt, what the hell has Aunty lacquered all this time. All the best facilities Papah kasih, Mama also more silent, eh no yearya make me disappointed!”

Usfi was silent, he no longer knew how to deal with and talk to this teenage girl. It seemed like as much as she spoke, Naura would not be able to understand what Usfi said. What Nora understands is not the same as what Usfi thinks.

Repeatedly he gave an explanation of all the things he had done to Anwar so far, so that the man would no longer indulge in his napps, but, it did not seem to work. This time God is testing it.

Anwar had not returned to Maisha's house his first wife, nor had he returned to Usfi's house as his second wife. The women had no idea what Anwar was doing out there, because every time he was contacted he always said he was at work.

When it comes to time, Usfi never demands more, it's up to her husband. If Anwar comes, he will serve well, otherwise he will never protest.

Her husband did share less time with her, arguing that she did not have children and for some other reason. Even if it is appropriate, then the polygamous husband must divide the nights fairly. However, Usfi knew himself, that he was in the family, just as a denouncer so that Anwar no longer flirted.

The woman did not have any children, at Anwar's wishes and he only obeyed her, so she used contraception after marriage. Anwar wants his second wife not to get pregnant and bother taking care of the baby. He wants to be free to take anywhere, whenever it takes to go drop off an item that, often takes days.

But in fact, Usfi is often invited to go by Anwar to deliver goods to various regions, only for a year after their wedding. A second year of Usfi is only at home and often alone. It was only in the third year that Anwar gave a vegetable post, to manage, because he reasoned he would open a branch outside the city.

Since then Anwar has not come home. Except on Saturdays and Sundays where he has to spend time with his kids. Just a week ago, for the first time Anwar did not fulfill the rights of children where he had to be with them.

Usfi recalls her past when she had just agreed to Maisa's wish, to be her husband's second wife. At that time, Usfi complained to his only friend who, he believed, could keep his secret.

“Do not believe it, Fi,” said his friend, “That man, once unfaithful then he will forever be unfaithful unless there is his own consciousness to stop his habit!”
