"Are you sure you're not going home?" I asked Doni who was cool playing Mobile Legend games, while sucking cigarettes that only stayed a little longer.


"I can't go home, mace the guy in the restaurant. You're going home with nothing, aren't you?" Doni turned off the cigarette butt he was holding.


"The star must be disappointed, anyways come home a day is not a problem anyway, the important thing is you are on his birthday" I persuaded Doni so he would come home with me.


"Ga can Iang, mace man. I'll be home next month. Promise me, yaaa !" Doni put his phone down, he looked at me as if seducing me so I would stop forcing him to come home with me.


I fell silent, the debate tonight seemed to be fruitless, I packed the things I was going to bring home tomorrow.


Early in the morning I woke up, deliberately leaving before sunrise. 


"Come, are you ready?" Doni took my hand. This morning it's not usually so warm to me, even since last night. It was like he was expecting me to come home soon.


Doni drove me to Kebon Jeruk terminal using the Grab Car he ordered a few minutes ago.


"I put this away, yeah, for my Princess. You be careful on the road, don't play cell phones in public places" Doni gave a toy horse-horse made of thick black plastic.


"When did you buy this? How do I gatau, how do I take it. It's heavy again". I took the horses that Doni gave me, it seemed like he knew exactly what his daughter wanted.


It did not take long to reach Kebon Jeruk terminal, the road was quite quiet in the morning blind like this, so it accelerated my return journey. "Be careful, brother" said Grab Driver, he helped get the stuff I was carrying.


In front of me was waiting for the Bandung-Jakarta Bus, apparently not so difficult to find a bus that will soon take me home, meet Mama, Babe and also Bintang.


"Let's go up there, I'll go in, you sit down" Doni put my things on the bus and then came back down. My eyes did not move from Doni, there was a feeling of worry in me, how not, I left him alone in this very big city. Yes even if it is only 4 days, still, I am a Wife, worrying about my Husband is normal. Even if my feelings fade a little because of the presence of Bayu who continues to play in my brain.


The bus began to go at high speed, along the road I look at the towering buildings, vehicles passed through the streets of Jakarta is very crowded. 


I tried to close my eyes, I can't wait to get home.


4 Hours of travel is quite tired, but the fatigue disappeared instantly when I looked at my Star, the heart of my heart, my soul, my soulmate, I saw him waiting for me at the door with a big smile that he gave me as a welcome.


"AMISSI-BUUUU.." He screamed while running towards me. 


I immediately hugged and held her. Then bring him into the house.


"Horeee.. Mom's Makeup, Love you" The star received my gift as well as my friends, she looked so happy, she hugged me tightly.


After being satisfied playing with the Stars, I met Baby, at first glance there was nothing different, his face, his posture even fragrant body.


"Hi Bayu" I smiled at him. Slightly trembling and stiff. Maybe because we haven't seen each other in a long time.


He just smiled at me, I took his right hand to ask him to shake hands. After seeing her for a few minutes I said goodbye to her, no words came out of both of our mouths.


As I promised, I only wanted to see her once in my entire life.


We parted with our own steps. Even so, we are still good friends by keeping each other's contacts. There was regret that I felt, as well as fear that spread through my body, fear that if only Doni knew this. Maybe he'll be very angry.


It has been 2 days at home the feeling of anxiety continues to haunt me, I don't know what is going on in the distance there, which obviously I want to go home soon. 


The time showed at 11 am, after celebrating the third birthday party Bintang, I immediately rushed to return to Jakarta, a vacation that should be 4 days only I use 2 days. 


I say goodbye to Mama, I kiss the back of your hand and then go home soon.


I still feel a sense of uneasiness along the way, strange as the slowness of the bus I was riding was driving when when the journey home felt so very fast. I arrived in Jakarta at 5 pm, with sweat soaking my body because the bus was very hot and crowded. Not much stale I immediately go home to the contract, because Doni today just happened to be on holiday maybe he was waiting for me in the contract. I deliberately did not tell him that I was going home today..


"Whose shoes? As far as I know I don't have shoes like this" I thought to myself, I noticed high heels in deep black that had a height of approximately 15 cm.


"Hahaha" I heard the laughter of a woman from inside.


"Well, did he have a maling afternoon-afternoon gini" I slowly opened the rented door, how shocked I was, like my heart was crushed because it was torn. 


A naked woman sits on my husband's lap. I could not say anything, only my eyes did not turn away from them.


"LAKNAT" I screamed loudly, inviting my neighbors who peeked behind the windows of their homes.


"Oh my God, are you betraying again? I struggled to keep you, even I fought my own feelings towards Bayu, and you hurt me (again) right in front of my eyes. And since when?" My heart continued to murmur, regret and pain mixed into one.
