Dilemmas In Marriage

Chapters. 35 Recognitions

"What if I say that Aris is with me? He is fine, said Lusi making Elena retreat regularly.

'What? How could he possibly meet that boy? No, this is impossible!' inwardly Elena, she tried to remain calm even though her heart was already worried.

Lusi turned around, he walked to the car and grabbed Aris's fingers and carried her into the restaurant. After being inside, Elena who saw that was instantly shocked. Her legs were limp and hard to move, the woman was regressing, she thought that she would be crushed today.

'Let's go, ' Elena's inner hold onto the end of the table.

Aji looked at the son, he walked slowly closer to the son. Arriving near Aris, the man extended his hand. He touched the cheek of the five-year-old boy.

"Honey." call Aji while hugging Aris very tightly. "Son, Papa is worried about you. Papa is grateful that you have been found and are doing well. I'm sorry that you've neglected to take care of you, Aris."

Aris sobbed, she looked at Elena with fear in her heart. He gripped Aji's shoulder very tight, it was realized by the papa and the embrace was unraveled.

"Son, what's wrong? Why are you being so scared?" Aji cupped Aris's face.

"Clearly he was terrified, because the villain who had already left him was in front of him!" lucid Lusi fast.

Aji does not understand the meaning and speech of Lusi, he looks at Aris asking for an explanation.

"What's going on, Aris?" ask Aji seriously.

"P—pa, her, auntie is evil." Aris pointed towards Elena who was about to run away.

"A—what do you mean, Aris? Who is evil? Auntie's not that kind of person."

"Lied!" sela Luci growled. "Mas, just ask her what happened, and why would she leave Aris alone on the street like that?"

Elena was nervous, her tongue was weak and it was hard to speak. He has been proven wrong, there is no other way to avoid it.

"Elena, what are you hiding from me?"

Elena shook her head quickly. "Mas, don't believe what he said! He just wanted to provoke you."

Aji doesn't believe Elena's words that easily, she trusts her son's words.

"Hiks, Aunt Elena left Aris where Aris had no idea where she was, Pa. Located very far from our home, Aris even confused to think about how to go home. Aris was scared, Pa." The boy was crying in Aji's arms.

As a parent, of course Aji did not accept his son to be treated like that. He hugged Aris body and calmed down. Dada Aji was very claustrophobic about finding this truth. After which, he stood before Elena.

"So this is your real attitude, Elena? You are shameless! Can you leave my son and lie that he disappeared because he was kidnapped? I didn't expect you to have this cruel heart, Elena. What was your motivation for hurting my son? What's our fault, Elena?" yelled Aji in a high tone.

Elena closed her eyes, she looked at Aji as boldly as she could.

"IT'S ALL FOR YOU, MOM! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH AND I WANT YOU TO BE MINE." cried Elena until her neck veins tightened.

Aji shook her head. "Crazy, totally insane! You justify the way just for love? What stupid act is that, Elena? I don't love you at all, even if you try as hard as you can, I still will never marry you!" Aji pointed at Elena's face.

"You're outrageous, Mas. You're evil!" elena shouted in disbelief.

Aji took a cell phone and he immediately contacted the police, something like this should not be underestimated because Elena could someday do the same action again.

"Mas what are you doing? You want to put me in jail? Tega you, Mas! Did you forget that I was always by my side all this time? I prepared all your needs, I noticed you."

"But I didn't ask for any of that! You gave it to me yourself. I thought you were sincere in helping me, but you didn't. You should be taught a lesson, Elena. Hopefully you can be deterred and will never repeat the same thing again."

Two male Aji restaurant officials ordered Elena's hand to be held before the police arrived. The restaurant was closed because Aji lost Aris.

Not long after, the police car has arrived and the police members immediately get down from there. They went into the restaurant to meet Elena. After talking for a while, they finally took Elena to the police station for further questioning.

"Take me off, I don't want to go to jail! You're evil, Mas. Just look at my retaliation later!" elena shouted as the police dragged her away.

Aris hugged Aji's body from the side, she was very scared of Elena.
