Chapter4:

Mosa then fell asleep with a headache.

The next day, Mosa was ready to pray at dawn but he felt dizzy again.

Mosa tried to say to Roni, "Ron, my head is dizzy," she said.

"So? Take care of yourself. You are a teacher like that, you can't handle it. I'm busy, my mother said I also have to take care of myself, because my mother can always support me," said Roni.

"I'm dizzy, Ron. I'm just saying this at least you understand or help me do something,"

"Just do it yourself, I want to go to mom's house because there is a need."

"You're going too far, Ron. I know that a boy must always obey his mother..." Mosa didn't finish saying that Roni had cut him off.

"You know, so don't stop me from being filial to my parents. Because without them I'm nothing. You're just dizzy anyway, how come you're sick that's worse. Mom is the best person for me."

Hearing Roni's explanation, Mosa's heart ached quite a bit. She always defended his mother over his wife. Even his wife seemed to be considered by no one.

"I want to go home," Mosa said.

"Oh, you want to go home, please! I didn't forbid it was good. I can continue to focus on my parents. Because your presence here makes me a little sick," said Roni.

Mosa's tears flowed freely, she had thought that Roni would not hinder his intention to go home. But the reason to let Mosa go home made her even more hurt.

"Okay, I want to go home. Maybe not come back. I feel not considered here. I just want to make you happy, even without my presence you think I'm a hindrance to you and your parents."

"Yes, please! The money I gave you is still enough to pay for your return home."

Mosa did not answer Roni's question. She headed to the room to pack his things. Not long after, Mosa left the room and took a backpack.

"I say goodbye, Assalamualaikum," said Mosa.

"Waalaikumsalam, you say goodbye to my parents too!" said Roni.

Mosa then went to his father-in-law's house and said goodbye.

"Where are you going?" asked Sarni.

"I want to go home, Mom," replied Mosa, looking down.

"You just got married, it's just a problem, it's no wonder my son doesn't like you. How come the teacher's thinking is immature. You should be grateful to be married to my son because he already has a house, and he has a lot of income. So what's wrong with the teacher with Roni's salary, he's a businessman, if you go home, just go home! Don't come back. Your kid doesn't know how to profit. Stupid kid, if you know you're like this, it's a shame for the family," Sarni cursed to Mosa.

"Sorry, I just wanted to say goodbye," said Mosa with still tears in his eyes. She did not expect the words that were uttered by her father-in-law, even though so far even in a broken home she was never said like that.

Mosa's heart was broken, Roni just watched without defending his wife in the slightest. Roni is also afraid that his mother will be angry with her.

A moment later Mosa had left, only Sarni and Roni.

"Your wife is just like an uneducated person, you get married and you are embarrassed. Not even as much as your marriage has been left home. You don't follow her, it's better for her to leave and you find another woman who can understand you! Don't be like her. If only your father could prefer good women, surely things will not be like this," said Sarni.

"Yes, ma'am. I also regret that I married her. Father and Mother have been fighting to marry me to her, she is rude," said Roni.

Roni does not realize that the fault lies with him. Even though as a husband, you must be able to maintain the good name of your partner. Moreover, Mosa had his self-esteem dropped in front of him and his mother.

Roni doesn't think about how to be a husband. Even though he often prays in the mosque and participates in religious activities, he does not understand how to treat his wife well.

Roni just keeps hearing what her mother says, whether it's true or not, the role model is that her second mother is her father.

Of course, this is not allowed. Mosa should be comfortable with a husband who can nurture and protect him but instead gets bad treatment.

Roni then relaxes at Sarni's house without thinking about Mosa. He just forgot what happened.

Now Mosa has arrived at his house. Because Mosa and Roni's house is not too far away, it's only enough to take an angkot in a few minutes.

Mosa went straight into the house. At home, it was quite quiet because there was only Mina.

"Assalamualaikum," said Mosa entering the house with tears in his eyes.

"Walaikumsalam," said Mina who was sitting in front of the television. "Why did you come home, son? Crying like this. What are you doing?" She asked.

"I went from there, there I was not considered. I was only scolded, Roni only followed his mother's words. Never once defended me. Even though I was being nice and tried to accept them, they only looked at me with one eye, even since I set foot there. Sorry, Mom, I must have made you sad. I had lied yesterday that I was fine there, even though I was very tormented there. Mas Roni doesn't consider me his wife at all, he only invites me to alk when I ask, that he never invites me to talk," Mosa explained, he was still feeling dizzy but because of the problems he was facing he ignored his dizziness and suddenly he fell unconscious.

Bruges.

"Oh my God, Mosa. Why did it come to this?" Mina then took wind oil and gave it to Mosa in several parts of his body.

Moments later Mosa awoke.

"Thank God, you're awake," said Mina.

Mosa started crying again as if he couldn't forget what had just happened.

"You are patient! You should be here to calm your mind. I felt bad yesterday because I was thinking about you, that's why I called, but you said you were fine. Honestly, I didn't believe it right away, because my feelings can't be lied to even if there are It's a lie. Maybe you're trying to cover it all up from Mom so I don't think about it. But I was once pregnant with you and cared for you until you grew up. My feelings are quite sensitive when your child is in trouble, even though I don't know what the problem is either."

"But rest assured, Mother will always be there for you. Maybe your mother-in-law also feels the same way."
