Chapter3:

Mosa's heart seemed to want to scream when Mina was on the phone, but she just wanted to keep Roni's good name in front of Mina.

After all, Mosa and Roni just got married. How about knowing her daughter's wedding was like that.

"That's it then, you're doing well there! Oh yeah, by the way, when do you start school?" Mina asked, just wondering when Mosa would return to teaching.

"Two more days, ma'am. So you still have time at home," replied Mosa, casually. Although he was confused about what she would do while at home.

"Okay then, be healthy there. Take good care of your husband! Assalamualaikum," Mina hung up the phone.

"Walaikumsalam," replied Mosa.

After hanging up the phone, Mosa heard Roni laughing at his father-in-law's house. She was quite jealous, she was never joked about by Roni.

Wanting to cry seemed useless because until now he was just wasting tears without anyone caring.

She took the initiative to make soy sauce chicken. She prepared to head to the market to do some shopping. The distance between the house and the market is not too far, so she only needs to walk.

After taking her wallet Mosa closed and locked the house. Then she went to his mother-in-law's house. There she saw Roni enjoying fried tempes made by Sarni, her mother-in-law.

"Ron, I want to go to the market," said Mosa, saying goodbye.

"Yes," answered Roni flatly, then looked away.

"Mom, do you want to get something?" Mosa asked Sarni, who was sitting next to Roni.

"No, you just go!" replied Sarni.

Then Mosa left the house and headed for the market.

Not far from Mosa's house, a neighbor who is not far from him is greeted. "Mom, where are you going?" She asked.

"Here, I want to go to the market, Ma'am, I'll go first," replied Mosa. SHe then walked away from his neighbor.

Along the way she was greeted by several people who knew she was a newlywed, she was just trying her best to answer. But she didn't want to say much.

Her heart still hurts, feeling Roni's harsh words.

Arriving at the market Mosa went to a place that sells chicken pieces for chicken soy sauce ingredients. Then buy some spices to stock at home. Because she saw that there was no food at home.

Mosa brought some money, she used it to buy some cooking utensils. Although there are but only pans and pans.

Mosa took the initiative to complete it using his money because the 150 thousand money given by Roni was deemed insufficient.

After finishing buying what Mosa needed, she rushed home to immediately start the cooking show.

Mosa was quite objected to the luggage, but she didn't complain. She kept walking until she finally reached the front of the house.

Mosa unlocked then put all the things she bought. She peeked in the window and it seemed Roni had already left for work.

Mosa then went into the kitchen and tidied things up. "So just cook soy sauce chicken," Mosa muttered.

Previously, Mosa had already cooked the rice, so she only needed to cook the side dishes.

Footsteps were heard towards his house, "What do you want to cook?" asked Sarni then sat in front of the kitchen door.

"Here, ma'am. Cook soy sauce chicken," replied Mosa, preparing the ingredients.

"Is it possible?" Sarni quipped. She couldn't believe that his daughter-in-law could cook.

"God willing, you can, Mom. It's just that it's a bit different from your cooking," said Mosa, feeling uncomfortable when she was cooking to be watched like that.

But Mosa tried to calm down even though Sarni was still there.

She started to process his chicken to make soy sauce, but while he was busy cooking, Sarni suddenly commented, "You cook like that, I don't want it!" She snorted. Then leave Mosa.

Mosa was silent, "What's wrong with my cooking?" he muttered.

Mosa confused herself, she didn't know where he went wrong. Even though she used to cook soy sauce chicken as usual.

Mosa didn't care, she just continued to finish cooking his breakfast.

After finishing, Mosa tasted it, "Hmm, God willing, it's delicious."

Then Mosa prepared a serving plate to be placed on the dining table. Then she cleaned up the leftovers and tidied up the kitchen.

Mosa took the plate for his breakfast, "Bismillah."

Mosa enjoyed his breakfast, even though she was alone she could still enjoy it. After all, a healthy body is also an investment for her, if she is sick who will he bother she will be in trouble herself. Moreover, Roni also doesn't care about her, especially if it bothers his in-laws.

Mosa whole day is filled with doing school assignments, although it can be done when she starts working, she has no activities that make him so bored at home.

Roni did not come home, she was still working until sunset.

"Assalamualaikum," Roni greeted.

"Walaikumsalam," said Mosa, she was watching television. Then out to greet Roni.

She tried to grab Roni's hand for a kiss. Instead of Roni giving his hand, he shook Mosa's hand to get away.

Mosa tried to be patient, she just wanted to do good to his husband.

Roni went to the bathroom, and Mosa went to the kitchen to make hot tea. Even though she knew, Roni wouldn't drink it.

"Here, Ron, the tea," said Mosa.

Roni didn't answer, he was tired of being given things she didn't like.

Roni then prepared to go to the mosque to pray in the congregation.

Mosa who was unable to attend congregational prayers, chose to eat because he was already hungry.

Mosa knew, later or now she would eat alone. While waiting for Roni to come home from the mosque, she sat in the living room. Maybe Roni will come home from the mosque soon. But after waiting until Isha, Roni did not come home.

Mosa turned on the television to break the silence.

Until several hours, Roni did not come home. "Where's Roni? Why don't you come home? Are you going to Mother's house?" mumbled Mosa.

Mosa then turned off the television, she moved to the room because he was feeling quite sleepy. Without realizing it Roni entered the house.

Seeing Mosa sleeping, Roni didn't wake her up. There are already pillows and blankets in the living room.

Roni doesn't care, after eating out and spending time with friends now she wants to rest. Because tomorrow he will be out of town to check the supply of red and white onions in the destination city.

In the middle of the night, Mosa woke up, "Is Mas Roni home, huh?"

Mosa then went to the living room and saw Roni was fast asleep. "Thank God he's back," he mumbled.

Mosa then returned to the room to continue sleeping.

"Why do I feel dizzy, huh? That feeling was okay," said Mosa, then held his head.

Mosa then lay down on the bed, Mosa felt her head was spinning and didn't know why.
