"I'm sorry, sir. But I'll never accept that money." Melinda answered boldly. Although when staring at Wijaya his guts instantly shriveled. 


"Then? You're gonna stay by Theo's side? You cheap lady doesn't know!" sergeant Wijaya. His jaw tightened and the look in his eyes sharpened. Makes Melinda scared. 


"It's not so, sir. I'm still leaving Mr. Theo's life. Sorry if I've disrupted your son's life. I'm going to leave here without the money. You just calm down. Then I say goodbye, sir." Melinda bowed respectfully. 


Then, he went into the room and took care of his things. "Darling, we gotta get out of here." 


"Where else are we going, Mom? Are we being kicked out of here?" asked Atha so chatty. 


Melinda nodded weakly. "We are not expelled. It's just, mom wants us to live somewhere else that's more fitting for us. Don't talk too much. Come on, honey." 


Melinda also took Atha. Do not forget to say goodbye to Wijaya even though he did not get any response from the man. Wijaya just shook in place and continued to stare at Melinda's movements. 


God, I don't know what kind of fate line I have to go through. When someone acts like an angel to me, but why do you have to separate again. Is it possible that my trials in this world will never end? 


Although only dare to complain in the heart, it still makes Melinda feel her chest so tight. He rubbed the corners of his wet eyes. She did not want Atha to know that she was crying. Whatever he was, he would still look tough in front of his own son. Melinda, who had intended to leave Theo's life, sent a message to the man because after this, he would sell his phone and throw a card in it. 


Thank you so much for your kindness so far, sir. May the Lord reward him many times over. I'm sorry, Sir. If I leave without saying goodbye to you. I can't even repay all the good you've done. I can only pray that your life will always be filled with happiness. Good bye, Sir. 


Huh!


Melinda sigh*hkan breath into the air roughly. After making sure the message was sent, Melinda immediately turned off her phone. Don't want a reply let alone a call from Theo.

"What does this mean?" theo asked in surprise when reading a message from Melinda. 


He also tried to call the woman's number. However, none of his calls are connected. In fact, all messages sent only show a tick of one. Theo's heart suddenly became anxious and agitated. Something was wrong with that woman. 


"Where is Melinda?" theo asked after he decided to call the house phone. 


"Gentlemen, Miss Melinda ...." 


"Papa?" Theo was surprised that the voice of the servant turned into the voice of the father. "What are you doing in my house?" ask Theo full of emotion. 


"Of course drive out the dirty women who live here. Do not let him dirty the house and your heart" said Wijaya very firmly. 


Theo's hands were clenched tightly. Feeling angry at his father for meddling in his affairs. Theo no longer chimed in the words of the father, he turned off the call and immediately rushed home. For something as important as this, Theo didn't want to argue on the phone.


During the trip, Theo felt a sense of uneasiness. The speed of the car is quite fast, it feels very slow for him. I can't wait to get home soon. 


"Argh! Why does everything get stuck!" Theo hit the steering wheel and kept swearing. The annoyance and impatience mixed into one to make his head feel boiling. 


After a long journey, Theo finally got home. Directly drive the car carelessly and walk hastily into the house. When he arrived at the living room, Theo was immediately greeted by Wijaya who had been waiting since. 


"What does Papa mean to drive Melinda out of here?" ask Theo without further ado. 


"Of course, so that no dirty woman lives here." Wijaya still answered casually. 


"Pa! Papa shouldn't have interfered with my business." Theo tried to dampen the anger so that he did not be rude to his parents. 


"Theo, I don't know what pellet that woman used. Why are you crazy about him. From the side, it looks like a village woman. Not to mention its social status," said Wijaya. Disfiguring Melinda to make Theo more inflamed. 


"Pa, what if he's from the ordinary? Not all rich people make happy and not all poor people make suffer. Treasures and social status are not a benchmark of happiness." Theo looked at the clumsy papa full of disappointment. 


"Your brain has really been poisoned by that woman. Social status is important. As a respected person, you should be able to choose a wife who is clear seeds, bebet, and weights." Wijaya also did not want to lose. How also he wants the best for his son according to his own version. 


"Pa, if it is a classy woman, from a distinguished family, a high school graduate who can create a happiness. Surely Papa and Mama are now impossible to divorce!" 


Theo who was no longer able to hold back his anger finally issued the sentence, while Wijaya was inflamed to hear the sentence thrown by his son.


"You've now dared to be insolent to papa! How long have you known that woman? Until you dare to fight and talk like that to papa?" Wijaya stared at Theo very fixedly. 


"Pa, I don't want to be rude to Papa. I just don't like it if Papa gets too involved in my personal affairs. It's a matter of the heart and it can't be forced, Pa."
