"had breakfast? tanyanya while sitting next to the dea who was lying down while holding her child.


"yet, Dea replied.


" here Rachel let me be the fat one, Marfin offered while sticking out his hand.


Dea gave her daughter to Marfin while Dea was helped by scooping bribes for porridge bribes brought by Marfin.


after finishing helping Dea bi ina then rushed to leave the room.

Alika walked slowly towards the two while smiling a little,


"Come here? not office? ask Alika.


"yes dear mas want to go to the office, he said then gave a little princess to Dea.


With a heavy smile on her lips, Marfin stepped closer to the door and looked back to look at the direction of Alika who then raised a smile at her.

"You're a semarang native? alika asked Dea.


"where did miss know? ask Dea.


" you didn't lose your identity, did you? ask Alika.


"what about your family? ask Alika back.


"i don't have a family anymore Dea said as she began breastfeeding her child.


" if your family knows, what are your real attitudes, what will they do to you? supporting you?asked Alika quipped.


" woman, it's better to leave if you come here to insult me Dea said.


" then? my husband's coming, why didn't you throw him out? asked Alika while smiling sideways.


Alika sighed then approached closer Dea who was breastfeeding her child.


" dear? good child, do not be like your mother, said Alika while stroking the tiny baby gently.


While Dea only Silently held back the anger that he had heard Alika's insinuation earlier.


" i feel sorry for you, why not just go back to live with your grandmother and grandfather? advice Alika.


" how do you know about my family? dea said in amazement.


Alika just smiled looking at Dea's expression,


" you want them to survive? alika said as if threatening.


" what do you mean? are you a bad guy? where are they, huh? dea then put her daughter in the cradle.


" they are safe with me, Alika smiled then stepped away from the dea.


" hey, wait, said dea.


Alika paused for a moment then smiled without glancing back, she continued to drive towards the door to exit the room.


after the departure of Alika Dea seemed so worried, in her mind Alika was a bad woman, what did alika do to her grandparents?


"how did she find grandparents? inner Dea.

Alika drove out her car and stopped at a small house but seemed comfortable with a modern-style building and painted in ash.


" assalamu'alaikum, Alika knocked on the door.


" uh ndok, where have you been? tanyakanya.


"this is Grandma, Alika has food for grandma and grandpa, said Alika then went in and put her food on the table while she was kitcheny to take a plate to serve food.


" please granny, cake.said Alika smilingly offered.


her Sumiati grandmother and Ramlan's grandfather were the parents of Dea Amanda's father and mother.


they both live in a shabby place, a place that is not feasible for both elderly people at their age.


therefore, he heard the story of his errand boy about the Dea family living in a shabby place, alika asks her errand boy to bring grandmother and grandfather dea to Jakarta on the grounds that he will be met with his grandson who has long disappeared without news, until he arrived in Jakarta Alika treats both very well ,giving them clothes was also a decent place to live.


" when will Dea see us? asked Grandma Sumiati with her sad look.


"do you remember the faces of your grandchildren? ask Alika.


" a little memory dok, because it has not been seen for a long time and we are old so like to forget the same people, said grandma.


alika smiled hearing the words of grandmother.


"if so, consider me your granddaughter? Alika spread her arms as if she wanted to get a hug.


the Sumiatipun grandmother welcomed him warmly and then hugged him.


"iya ndok, thank you ..ndok this is a good person, said the grandmother.


The night changed Alika did not go home to her aunt, her in-laws or her own home, she accompanied Ramlan's grandfather and Sumiati's grandmother.


calls and messages from her husband were ignored,


"honey where are you? sleeping where? ask Marfin via whatsapp.


Alika just read the message without replying, until Marfin sent her a message again continuously.


" i hate you mas, Inner Alika.


One-third of the Night Alika woke up, he shed his complaints complaining to the creator of life.


until the last decision must be taken, after finishing the prayer and pensive for a moment he contacted a lawyer to help him take care of the divorce process.

the night changed in the morning, Alika woke up from her sleep, she felt a sense of nausea that plagued her, then she rushed to the bathroom and cleaned it there.


" what's wrong with me? alika's mind while holding her stomach.


" but I'm late for the moon, don't don't.... Alika started guessing.


he quickly prepared and went to the hospital, but did not forget before leaving he said goodbye to Ramlan's grandfather and Sumiati's grandmother.

"welcome miss, you are pregnant, said the doctor.


Alika sighed then dropped her head on the table as if she felt a deep sense of regret.


"god & God, why is all that possible, muttered Alika.


"Why lady, sir must be happy to hear this, this is good news, right?doctor says.


" Silence, I want the doctor to keep it a secret from my husband about my pregnancy, threatened Alika.


The doctor then agreed.

the next day, at the residence of Marfin Wijaya he was sitting casually reading the newspaper, Rasti approached him and gave a brown envelope to Marfin.


Marfette read the letter slowly,


letter from the court.


subject:divorce duty.


after reading it he immediately tore the letter and threw out a tear of the paper.


" well if that's what you want, just divorce.who do you think you are ! can live without me, I'll take care of the divorce, yell at Marfin's frustration.


With Marfin's emotions out of his house and fast forward his vehicle, in the car he repeatedly contacted Alika but there was no answer.


" ah Siall, where is he ! how dare he want a divorce from me, grumbled Marfin.


Marfin searches for Alika to the house of his uncle and aunt Alika but is not found, then searches for her parents' house, even if there is none, where is Alika? Marfin continued to search with a feeling of anger that culminated in him.

"i've been looking for him here and there, but I haven't seen him either Marfin said.


" where did he take my grandmother and grandfather? dea Mumm.


" what do you mean? ask Marfin.


"really sir, he has kidnapped my grandfather and grandmother, Dea said.


"how does he know where your family is? why didn't you ever tell me? ask Marfin to investigate.


"Sorry sir, Dea replied lowered her head.
