Aunty, Lonely

"I told you enough. Sorry I had to slap you. You don't have to bring anyone else even to the point of cheating on him. I told you to blame me if it's my affair.." Erpan seems more assertive when talking about Dara. Devina certainly realized this. He understood very well that the man in front of him was not the person he had known all along.

Erpan is now different from Erpan when they were dating. Where Devina has always been a priority, but now it is just a dreg. Now she knows why Erpan chose to divorce. Right, because he loves Dara. But also because he wants to get rid of his replaced self. Even to the heart of playing hands, even though Erpan who Devina knows is not Erpan who is light-handed.

"Okay, you want a divorce? All right, I accept. No need for mediation, just get divorced." Firmly Devina while releasing the ring that was on her finger. Then he passed the ring to Erpan. "With this, we're both nobody anymore. Just wait legally."

Devina stepped away leaving Erpan still riveted. Erpan did not love Devina anymore, but in his little heart like something was singing this happened. He was sure it was just a feeling of compassion from him. Therefore, even if there was a little stuck in his heart, he would still do this divorce.

"One more thing, don't expect me to give Lissa to you." Said Devina who stopped her steps before she was about to meet her mother.

"Yes, you can take full custody of Lissa." Reply Erpan lightly. He seemed to have planned this from the beginning.

"Look, kid. Your real father is really evil. He doesn't care even as if telling you to stay away." Inner Devina felt pain because her child had to be thrown away by her own father.

"You can stay here, Devina. This house will be given to you as a treasure gono-gini. And I'll give you money every month as compensation for Lissa's survival." Terang Erpan explained his plan.

"No need. You don't have to do any of that. Keep it for your future wife and child. They need it more."

"I hope that after this divorce, we can be more professional." Short Devina left Erpan there and soon followed her mother. Just opening the door of the room, Lissa immediately rushed towards him and hugged him.

"Mama, Mama, why are you so papa?" lissa asked with a plain face.

"No papa, really." Devina answered while putting on the best smile she could show her son. One thing that makes him sad again, is to see Lissa who is still a child but has become a victim of divorce her parents. It was heartless if Lissa had to part with her biological father, but circumstances forced them. So Devina promises herself that she will continue to exist for Lissa, her son.

"Continue mama's cheek Why? what, that red color?" Lissa continued pointing towards Devina's cheeks which still looked redder than her skin color. Her mother was also aware of what happened when she left her son with the man.

"Bashful son-in-law. How dare he slap my son?" Devina's mother's growls involuntarily made Lissa cry.

"Loh, mama's boy. Why cry?" Devina asked as she carried Lissa in her arms as her son suddenly cried. Devina tried to calm her son down by stroking his head slowly. Sometimes he peels the head off his son.

"Hiks,,, is it true what omah said, ma? Papa diabolin' mom?" Lissa again asked her mother as she was in her arms. Honestly Devina was very heavy to take this decision. But she's not a stupid woman who takes all of Erpan's behavior for granted. At least he should try to forget and mengikhlaskan, although maybe everything will feel heavy in the future. He was convinced that Lissa and her mother were able to make him rise again.

"What a hell, baby. Just because of a certain problem, mom and dad have to split up, son." Devina told her son and mother.
