Being a Night Butterfly
TMKM-14



Fatih came back to the gambling table carrying money from Melinda. Although always losing, but the man never felt deterred at all. Just keep coming and hoping to win even if it's just hope. 


"You're coming again. It was incredible. Your head is big too" said the man who used to fight Fatih and always beat the man.


"Don't say much. I'm sure this time will win" Fatih said confidently. Put all the money he brought on the table. Everyone who was there immediately smiled cynically. 


"In that case, now we just plug it in. I can't wait to see your victory" he said with a soft laugh. Fatih who heard that was silent and felt her heart heating up. 


Look, I'll get back at you! 


Fatih. His teeth were grinding because he was so upset. However, he tried to quell the anger. I have to prove to them that he can win. 


The atmosphere was suddenly tense as the game began. Fatih tried to concentrate even though many tried to flirt. Until in the end, Fatih growled furiously because he lost again. 


"Brengsw*k!" Fatih kicked the table so upset. "Why do I always lose? I'm sure something's wrong here." 


"Hey, don't make trouble. If you lose, you should accept. Lose, lose, don't make a mess." The man who was fighting Fatih just now started to get annoyed. 


"But I feel something is wrong. Tell me, you must have cheated, right?" he pointed at the man's face.


This made Fatih had to fall down due to receiving a blow. Not just from one person, but some people took advantage of the opportunity to come hit Fatih. Until finally, Fatih fled from there in a weakened condition. 


"Damn it, I almost died." Fatih exhaled a sigh of relief when he was far from the gambling place earlier. Then he came home soon and only arrived home at one in the morning. Melinda, who has just returned home. 


"Where are you from, Mom?" ask Melinda curious.


"Shut up!" fatih. 


"Maas ...." 


"Don't I tell you to shut up!" Fatih vented anger at Melinda even though the woman had done anything wrong. A slap landed on Melinda's cheek. 


"Mas, why are you like this now. Aren't you tired of slapping me?" snapped Melinda. Looking at her husband with guts. 


"You cheap women have no right to interfere in my affairs and this slap deserves you! Better shut up or I won't hesitate to tear your mouth out!" threaten Fatih's. His gaze was so fierce that it made Melinda slightly inching in fear. 


Seeing Melinda who was silent, Fatih was about to seize the woman's bag to take the money in it. However, Melinda swiftly hid behind the body. Trying to protect the bag so as not to fall into the hands of her husband. 


However, Fatih hit Melinda again and immediately grabbed the woman's bag. No matter how much Melinda cried and begged Fatih not to take the money in it. 


"Here I return, Jal*ng!" fatih sighed. 


"Mas, I beg you. Don't ever take my money. That's for Atha's treatment, Mas." Melinda pleaded with tears. However, Fatih paid attention to the ears and entered the house just like that. 


Melinda could not help but hold her tears. The heartbreaking isakan sounded so heartbreaking. Breaking the silence that night. The gusts of breath that Melinda did several times were not able to make the woman's heart become relieved. 


God, if you don't love me anymore. Just take my life. Even though I'm a sinful woman and heaven doesn't deserve me. It's better than I have to live like hell. I'm tired, God. I want to give up.


Again, Atha's voice managed to resuscitate Melinda. The woman wiped her tears quickly and hugged her son very tightly. No matter how much effort Melinda had to make so as not to look like she was crying, but her puffy eyes could not lie. 


"Why haven't you slept yet, honey?" melinda asked trying to look ordinary. 


Atha did not answer. Looking at Melinda very closely. "Mother, did you hurt me again? Did you make you cry again?" 


Melinda shook her head weakly while smiling bitterly. "No. I'm just tired and need a break." Melinda. He switched the conversation and asked Atha to enter the house immediately. But the boy refused. 


"Mother, how can I get big fast and keep Mom from anyone who hurts you?" asked Atha innocently.


"You're this." Melinda rubbed the top of her son's head. "Sleep well and be a good boy and you'll grow up soon." 


Melinda forces Atha to enter the house immediately and act as if nothing happens. Melinda did not realize that from a distance there were two people observing the incident. 


"We have to report to the boss now" they said, rushing away as Melinda walked into the house.

"You guys serious?" ask Theo. He looked at his men in disbelief. 


"Yes, Sir. She was a woman of the night. We managed to follow up to the place where it worked. Other than that ...." Theo's men hung up his words. Makes Theo impatient himself. 


"Continue! Don't give me half the information!" he half snapped. 


Theo's men inhaled his breath deeply. "Master, it seems like the woman's life is very sad. We just saw that she got a blow from a man and most likely that man was her husband." 


"His husband? Don't you joke!" timpal Theo's. "I can't believe she has a husband. His face looks very young" he added. 


"That's just our guess, sir. It's also possible that she already has a child." 


Theo. Can't believe his men's words at all. He also has to make sure of himself. Theo asks for the address where Melinda works and tomorrow night he is determined to go to that place to confirm all the remarks from his men.

"Well, Ma'am****...Where are you going?" ask Yuli. Julid's woman is on a server with her mother-in-law. Melinda did not reply and chose to pretend not to hear the woman's words. "Well, it's been*****song anyway. Pantes his son's illness, his mother***** si." 


Yuli's words succeeded in provoking Melinda's anger. He turned around and immediately stood in front of Yuli. His gaze sharpened even if powerless to hold back, Melinda almost strangled the woman. 


"Did your mouth have no manners?" ask Melinda growled. 


"Well, really good at being a person. Of course you have, you have no manners. Got one item on sale," he booed worse. 


"You!" Melinda raised her hand and slapped the woman. However, his hands floated in the air when he heard his mother-in-law's voice from behind. 


"You're this, it's cheap, it doesn't have any! I'm sorry I have a daughter-in-law like you!"
