🌹HAPPY READING🌹

The breakfast is over, Ibra, Naina and Al are preparing to do their respective activities. Before going to the office, Ibra and Naina first take Al to school. Al, 4, asked Ibra to put him in the playgroup. Before actually leaving, Ibra circulated her gaze looking for Dee's whereabouts, because when she first went down for breakfast Ibra did not see her.

"Nai, Lo go to the car first with Al ya. I'm going to go to the room first. Someone is missing" Ibra told Naina to get to the car first.

Naina smiled and nodded "Yuk Al, we go to the car first," said Naina holding Al's hand.

"Abi, Al first yes. Do not be long, later Al late school and can not lead gymnastics in front," said Al before going to the car. Ibra smiled and nodded in agreement with Al.

Fifteen minutes later, Ibra returned to the car and saw Al sitting in the back seat with his face bent. His cheeks bulged, his hands folded in the chest seeing the arrival of Ibra.

"Old rabbi, Al was late" said Al scowling at Ibra.

"You won't be late Al, the school people just in front of the belagu complex. Like a school far away," said Ibra meledek Al. Al was only asking for a school in front of his compound. I don't know why the boy refused to go to school near Ibra's office.

It did not take long, the car driven Ibra stopped in front of the playgroup. Al came out first followed by Ibra and Naina.

"Al don't be naughty. Must obey the teacher, " Ibra said while rubbing Al's head gently. Al nodded and took Ibra's hand to regret it. After that take turns to treat Naina.

"Al said goodbye, Abi, aunty Nai. Assalamualaikum," said Al.

"Waalaikumsalam" replied Ibra and Naina together. Al ran into the school. After making sure Al actually entered, Ibra and Naina passed away leaving school and continued the car to the office.

Ibra was in her room. Standing in front of a large glass window with both hands tucked into a trouser pocket gazed at the city crowd this morning. Ibra pensively thought about what she saw this morning.

This morning after Naina and Al left the house, Ibra went up to the room to see Dee. In the room, the room looks empty. Ibra walked towards the bathroom, walk in closet, but nil. Ibra did not find Dee's whereabouts. Not finding Dee in the room, Ibra comes out and walks to Al's room, but she still does not find Dee.

Ibra came back down the stairs. Right on the last step of the stairs, Ibra saw Bi Nini cleaning the dining table and Ibra approached.

"Bi," call Ibra.

"yes Sir. Is there anything you need ?" reply Bi Nini is friendly.

"Did Auntie see Dee? I didn't see him" asked Ibra.

Bi Nini also smiled happily, "The lady is in her personal room, sir," said Bi Nini. Ibra understood and nodded. Before leaving, do not forget Ibra to thank Bi Nini.

Ibra walked towards Dee's private room. When he got to the door, Ibra went in without knocking on the door first. There, Ibra saw Dee who was making his clay craft. His hands formed a haphazard clay that was circling with his Tools.

Dee's hand did work, but Ibra could see that Dee was looking blankly. Even Dee was unaware of Ibra's existence. The clay that he was working with had no shape, looked messy.

Ibra walked closer. He could see that Dee was crying in silence. There was no sobbing, only tears dripping down his smooth cheeks. Realizing the existence of Ibra in front of him, the cry that was once only tears now broke out making a roaring sound. Dee and Ibra looked at each other. It felt like Ibra reached out to wipe Dee's tears, and brought Dee his embrace. However, again his love was defeated by his own Ego. Unable to bear it, Ibra turned around and passed out without saying a word.

Seeing Ibra's departure, Dee stopped her activities. Dee stood up from her seat. Her body slumped, crying out to hug her knees. Her chest was still very tight seeing her husband and son enjoying breakfast with another woman. Moreover, it was his own cooking. Wanting Dee to scream shed all her sadness, but she only has to rub the chest asking for peace to God.

Ibra's daydreams are crumbling, when someone enters his room by opening the door a little rough.

"Can't go in it knock on the door first. It's rude" Ibra said to his personal assistant and best friend, Kevin Aditama.

"Yaelah, have just come also already diomelin aja same sir boss. Don't you ask me about that? it's been two weeks we're LDR" said Kevin.

"Dirty" replied Ibra Ketus. Kevin just laughed glad to have teased his boss.

Two weeks ago Kevin had to go to Paris to replace Ibra to take care of the problems that were in one of the branches of the company that was there.

"Where?" Ibra asked ambiguously.

"What?" kevin was confused.

"What's the matter there, what ?" repeated Ibra.

"A safe restrained is mah," Kevin replied casually.

Kevin spoke again as he recalled something, "Oiya, how's Dee ?"

"No way," Ibra replied casually.

"Lo didn't torture Dee, did he? remember Ib, Dee was Lo's wife. The wife that Lo painstakingly fought for dapetin him," Kevin said commemorating Ibra.

"Gue is okay. He's still intact at home. But I don't know how his heart is" Ibra continued in his heart.

"Don't think I don't know Ib. Stop acting cold as if you don't care about him. If you're being cold, why don't you get Dee out of jail. Don't add to his bathin wound Ib," replied Kevin who made Ibra speechless.

In a heart wound, Ibra fell silent and wept bitterly in her heart remembering her attitude towards Dee.

"And one more thing, you have to investigate everything. Don't just because we saw Dee holding the knife, we're accusing her of being the perpetrator. Not necessarily he who stabbed Aunt Raina," continued Kevin.

"Okay, I'm confused too. Lo also know for yourself, if from the first mother's relationship with Dee is not so good. It adds to my belief that Dee is the one who stabbed my mom. And until now, there has been no progress on the condition of the mother. Mama is still in a coma and Vin, and it's been a year" replied Ibra.

"Gue knows how Lo Ib feels. But that doesn't prove Dee's guilty. And I'm sure your little heart would agree with me. If you don't, you can't get Dee out of jail. Fight ego lo Ib."

It was Ibra who released Dee from prison. And of course it was unbeknownst to Dee and the others, except for Kevin and Agam. Agam was one of Ibra's best friends and Kevin was a police officer. Ibra always shared everything with Kevin and Agam, and vice versa.

"Gue was free in Dee because he felt bad for his parents, that's all," Ibra said in response to Kevin's words.

Kevin chuckled at Ibra's words, "Mouth lo can lie Ib, but the same heart you can't. Don't get to later on Ib. While Dee is still fighting for more of Lo's trust, Lo must also help her efforts, find the truth. I don't think you can make this problem. Do not let Lo's ego make Dee cheer up and end up leaving Lo's life," Kevin said at length to explain to Ibra. After that Kevin returned to his room and died Ibra who was silent digesting every word Kevin.
