After Party
Nightmare



"Luna, you can't talk like that! Juna and Roni are different people. Maybe Juna needs a little time to get close to Mom and Dad." Said Sister Dewi calming her sister with a hug.


The Goddess's eyes glared. He remembered how difficult it was to sleep every night, excessive anxiety, migraines that continue to interfere. She felt tormented and could only cry under the shower after making out with Roni, her husband.


He always felt that something was lacking, even though their marriage was fine. There was something unfilled among their perfection that was visible in the eyes of others.


That emptiness, maybe that made Roni turn away from him. The goddess did not want to ask. He is too afraid to face and accept the bad reality that will happen, maybe even has happened all this time.


The Goddess did not want Roni to be angry, and threw it away. Their household had two amazing children, and Dewi only wanted to maintain the state and reputation of her family.


At such times, the Goddess only felt the need for Prozac. Anti-depressant drugs, which will certainly help him calm the mind. At least for now.

Elsewhere, in a mall in downtown Jakarta.


"Hi, it's okay, right, meet Sunday like this?" Ask Matt, Juna's sister-in-law. He took a sip of his cappuccino. They were sitting together in a cafe in Sarinah. The interior is very comfortable, and nice to hold an appointment.


In the past, Juna and Luna used to spend time here. The atmosphere on Sunday seemed quiet. Perhaps people prefer to stay at home with family, enjoying a sunny Sunday.


"No problem." Juna nodded his head.


He imagined being at home with his horrible family-in-law, making him shudder immediately.


A waiter offered them to order food, but, both of them had not been interested in eating.


"So, Matt... What business would you offer me?" Ask Juna. He came to the building at Matt's request. Currently, Matt has a business opportunity that he wants to offer to Juna.


"Mine business." Matt replied with a reassuring smile.


"The prospects are very bright, and the profits are multiplied." Its effects.


Juna was doubtful. His salary as a staffer would not be able to reach out to mine business like he had read business magazines.


"Well, expensive business, dong?!" Juna was not sure.


"Ah, you, right, my family. Take it easy, this is not as expensive as many people think. Simply put twenty million in money first as initial capital. After that, be done. Just wait, the result. At least next month you can get five million. And it could be, three to four months can return capital. The current era of coal mines is again rame. Electricity is also supplied using coal. This investment period is about one year, so the results of the next month are pure profit for you. It's a good investment, you know, Juna!" Matt talks with a stirring gebu, but still looks and sounds polite.


Juna just stared and heard every word that came out of Matt's mouth. He's still stumped. He doesn't have that kind of money.


"But, Matt, right now I have more needs. My wife is pregnant, and.." Not done yet Juna spoke.


"Well, that's it! Since Luna is pregnant, you will need even more money. Especially after your child is born! Mending, you are investing money from now on!" Matt cut Juna's words.


Juna was silent. Weighing out all the possible alternatives. That much money he doesn't have. But they have savings together. And, Juna could access the money at any time.


"Hows it? This investment is better than playing stocks, you know!" Matt smiled with a reassuring smile.


Arriving, Juna's esophagus felt dry. He cleared his throat before answering.


"okay, Matt. I'm coming!" Juna.


Matt smiled widely and immediately shook Juna's hand tightly.


"Good! We'll take care of the details!"


****


"YES.....!!"


Luna screams. He jumped out of his bed and rolled down. The floor of his room was like a wavy, toying with everything on it.


Luna dragged her body closer to the door. Door's locked. He actually put the key on a table not far from it. However, the earthquake waves made it so difficult to stand up to that position.


Suddenly, the sky of the room collapsed. There were some slashing fragments directly raining down on his body. Luna just sat curled up. He tried to protect his head. She was crying hysterically.


"June... Junae... Junnnaa....!" Luna could only call out her husband's name.


Then his hand touched his stomach. Both sides of his stomach are seen ejecting ashore. Luna was panicking. He had to do something to his torn stomach. He ran to and fro. Then he fell, because the earthquake had stopped.


He thought he had to find something to block the rate of blood that kept flowing from his stomach. He wanted to stitch up this wound. Cover it neatly. However, in reality, he could only cover with both hands. Her tears were dripping with panic.


"JUNNNNAAAA.....!!"


Luna sat on her bed. Breathing gasps. It turns out it was just a dream. And a very bad dream. He stroked his stomach which was beginning to grow. Speak words praising the greatness of the name of the Lord.


Beside him, Bude Seno fell asleep soundly without realizing what was going on. Luna breathed a sigh of relief.


He recalled the conversation with his bud shortly before they fell asleep. Bude kind of gave a sponsor message from her mother about how Luna married life, about her husband, and about her current pregnancy.


And all the scorn, criticism, and advice from the budenya it seems very imprinted in the heart of Luna. Until he had a nightmare.


Slowly, Luna went down the bed. He looked at the wall clock and realized it was 12 p.m. She asked if her husband had come home. With a limp step, he went down the bed, put on his red cellop, and began to shift his steps outside the room.


She watched her husband fall asleep on the living room couch. That means, Juna had peeked into the room and saw her sleeping with Bude Seno. Smiling, she rubbed her husband's hair.


Where does her husband travel today? Did he find what he was looking for? Unexpectedly, being a wife is harder than it seems. Many things must be compromised together. Including, how to handle relationships in a family.


When they got married, they didn't know much about it. He just thinks the complexity of the household is most just a matter of clothes scattered, towels that forget to dry, or compromise on who turns off the lights at night.


Now, after he got married, and went through it all. Luna realized, the family matter was more than she had imagined before. Now, he's a little sorry. He hopes that things will not be complicated and complicated for both of them.
