Not the Perfect Wife
246. S2 - In Rani village
The car that Ivan was driving entered a village. Many children were playing on the streets, making Ivan drive his car very carefully. Rani pointed out the direction of Where the house was, until they arrived at a house large enough for size in their village.
"This is your house, son?" ask Mama Sari.
"Yes, Mom. Come on, I'll help!" tawal Rani's.
"Can."
Rani helps Mama Sari get out of the car. Meanwhile Ivan took the stick in the trunk and gave it to Mama Sari who was assisted by Rani. They're headed to Rahmi's house. Ivan still had to take some of the souvenirs he had prepared from home.
"Assalamualaikum," said Rani while knocking on the door.
"Waalaikumsalam," said someone who was inside the house. When the door opens it looks Bik Rahmi, Rani's mother.
"Kim!"
"Mother." The two hugged, shedding a sense of longing and happiness together.
"You're not going home to say anything?" ask Bik Rahmi.
"Yes, Mom, it's an impromptu problem. Introduce, this is Bu Sari, Mas Ivan's mother," Rani said after breaking their arms.
"Good day, Mother. My name is Rahmi, Rani's mother" Bik Rahmi said as she extended her hand.
"I'm Sari, Ivan's mother."
"Come on, come on in!" Rani again helps Mama Sari walk into their house. Everyone sits in the living room. Ivan just entered the house. The man also greeted Rani's mother.
"Mom lives alone here?" ask Sari.
"No. There was my oldest son with her husband but he was picking up his son at school. Maybe home soon too. If my son-in-law is working."
"Had a granddaughter apparently. It must be so fun to play with them."
"Yes, ma'am" replied Bik Rahmi. "Mother doesn't have any grandchildren?"
"Not yet, this is just about to get married. If my second son was a girl, but still in college."
They also talked about the wedding plans of Ivan and Rani. Bik Rahmi said if it is better to just go straight to the wedding because their families have all agreed. With the consent of Ivan's family.
Mama Sari also said that her family never objected to Ivan's choice, even though she was a household assistant. For them it is the business of each family.
While they were talking, a woman came along with her son who was still wearing a red and white uniform.
"Assalamualaik."
"Waalaikumsalam, Brother!" Rani approaches her brother and kisses the back of his brother's hand. Then he sat down next to his mother.
Rani is not so close to her brother because they never get along. Whatever Rani has, the older brother always grabs her by force.It is what makes the woman prefer to tell anything to her aunt or mother than her brother.
"Eh, there's a guest apparently. Why not drink, Ran?" reprimand her brother.
"Sorry, sister, we just came so, have not had time to drink" said Rani.
"You're the one who made it. Rani is also tired of traveling here," said Bik Rahmi.
"I'm tired too, Mom. Pick up the schoolgirl."
"No need, Mom. We are not thirsty either" said Mama Sari.
"Don't do it, Mom. Guests must be respected."
"Shortly, Mom. I'll go inside first" said Rani.
He went to the kitchen to get his guests some drinks. It is better for Rani herself to make drinks rather than getting longer just because of drinks. Her brother really did not understand how to glorify guests. He felt ashamed just because a trivial matter had to be debated.
"I date whatever, it's up to Mom how good. I don't know what their plans are either" Rahmi replied.
Rani did not tell her mother anything. Every time Rahmi asked by phone, Rani always said that everything was handed over to Ivan.
"Do you have any plans, when will your marriage be done?" mama Sari asked her son.
"If Ivan's alone, faster, better, but it's up to you to when it's another month or two, whatever."
"If it's one more month, it seems too soon, son. How about two more months. That's enough to prepare everything. It was just a simple event, too" said Bik Rahmi.
"Yes, Van. Mama also agreed that one more month was too soon" Mama Sari said.
"It's up to Mama, if you get the date, just let me know. Let me find the EO. Let them do everything. I don't want Mama to be sick."
"Yes." Yeah."
"I'm sorry, Mom. What's the show here in town?" ask Ivan.
Actually the man wanted his show in the city alone so that he would not go back and forth, but Ivan did not want to be selfish. Rani's family must have a desire regarding their daughter's wedding because of that she wants to hear the opinion of Rani's mother.
"His marriage is here, yes! Reception problem, it's up to where," replied Rahmi.
"Yes, Mom. Then the reception show is in town. Later I will also send people to help the event here."
"No need, son Ivan, I'll prepare it myself. I don't feel good about all of you."
"It's okay, Mom. Just a few people."
"Thank you" said Rahmi. "Oh, yes, maybe later after the marriage contract, there will be some people come to congratulate you. Nor could I have done an event at all. In the village we are used to having a selamatan event even though it is only small. To strengthen the friendship only," said Rahmi.
"Yes, Mom. I understand."
Rani comes with a tray and contains several drinks and snacks. Ivan, seeing Rani coming, immediately grabbed the tray from the woman's hand and placed it on the table. Rahmi smiled as she cared for her daughter Ivan
"Please enjoy, in our house there is only tea," said Rani.
"Yes, Mom, sorry there's only tea. The blender is also again damaged so, can not make juice," said Rahmi.
"It's okay, this is enough to relieve the throat" said Mama Sari with a smile.
Ivan and Mama Sari enjoy a drink made by Rani.
"Sweet, like the guy," praised Mama Sari.
"Mom could have." Rani smiled which was followed by laughter by the person who was in the room.
Mama Sari and Bik Rahmi continued their conversation. Ivan and Rani go to the garden at the behest of his mother. They had to pick vegetables to take Ivan and his mother home. That's all the Rani family can give as a gift.
Mama Sari had refused because for him it was too troublesome Rani's family, but Rahmi still forced because for him it was in their honor to Ivan's family and there was no intention. Eventually Sari accepts and allows Rani to leave.
Ivan and Rani are not just the two of them. In the garden there are already uncles and aunts so, there is no need to fear that something unwanted will happen.
