Duren Palm

Afraid caught

"Relove ... Shinta .. wake up Shinta." Veno tries to resuscitate Shinta by shaking Shinta's shoulder.

Veno looked intently at Haikal.

"You're lucky that this stupid girl forgave you! If you disturb him again .. I will not remain silent. Catch that!!!"

Veno holds Shinta's body out of the store and into the car. There was panic on Veno's face.

Oh my God .. What should I do? If I take her to the hospital it will be longer and the good name of this unstable girl will be ruined. But if I take it to the boarding house, I'll be the suspect. Aargh ... shit!!! Okay ... I'll take it home. Papi just happens to be out of town. And I'll just call Om Joy to take care of this girl. Well ... That seems like the best option I can choose.

Veno starts the engine of his car and leaves the store. During the trip Veno unceasingly scolded Shinta who was unconscious.

"You are a fool, Shinta! Why did you let the situation become so dire as it is now? How did you end up like this? I don't know what really happened, but I'm pretty sure you're guilty of this, too. Come on wake up.. Don't make me worry like this."

Veno drives with mixed feelings. Until several times he pressed the horn so that the vehicle in front of him to get out of the way. He wants to get home quickly and treat Shinta.

"Come wake up Shinta .. explain to me what happened? How could you end up like this in the hands of a criminal like him? For God's sake, if anything happens to you I will give the calculation to that bastard! I really don't understand why you're forgiving him. Come on, get up .. And let's just put that jerk in jail."

Not how long they arrived at the Veno residence and there was Joy waiting for their presence.

"How about Om, is he gonna be okay?" asked Veno who still looked panicked.

Joy who was putting on the infusion looked sharply at her nephew.

"Are you sure you weren't the one?"

"What does that question mean? I'm a playboy, but I don't play with minors, even more so with coercion." Veno is upset about being accused of a no-no by his mother's sister.

Joy approached Veno and patted him on the shoulder.

"Calm down Veno, he'll be fine. Other than bruises, there were no serious injuries. But Om was worried about his soul. Most people who experience something terrible like this will experience emotional stress, even depression. Especially this girl is so young. I don't know what's going to happen next. The point is, you should always accompany this poor girl. Do not leave him alone and if it looks something unnatural, quickly contact Om yes. We're both going to psychiatrists." said Joy.

"I understand Om, please keep this matter a secret from mami and papi."

Joy just smiled and walked away.

Veno sits beside Shinta's bed. It gently wipes Shinta's face full of bruises.

Kasian. Still small but have to accept this harsh reality.

****

At the house of Ardi.

Rianti looks agitated. Several times he changed his sleeping position but his eyes never closed. Ardi who was reading the book next to him became curious about Rianti's behavior.

"Darling, what's wrong with you?"

Rianti changed his position to sit and rested his head on the husband's shoulder.

"Mas, I want to be honest .. I got into the study."

Ardi looks panicked but tries to hide it. He placed the book on the nightstand and held Rianti's hand.

"Why are you going there?"

"So I picked up the phone from the Veno mas, and then he said Mas told me to call back."

"Ohh that .. Tomorrow, it doesn't matter anymore. The problem is solved."

Ardi just nodded in understanding. He was relieved that what made his wife nervous was Shinta. He picks up his phone on the nightstand and contacts Veno and presses the speaker lounds button so that Rianti can also hear their conversation.

"Hallo Veno, where are you? Are you with Shinta?"

"Yes .. now he's with me and sleeping." Veno's voice came from across the phone.

"Oh .. sukurlah. My wife is worried about Shinta. He's fine, right?"

"He's fine. You guys should be here tomorrow."

"alright. Tomorrow we'll be there."

Ardi disconnects the call and puts his phone back on the nightstand.

"That's it .. Don't worry too much. Tomorrow we go there and see your situation."

Ardi hugged Rianti's body and rubbed his wife's short hair.

Rianti just nodded slowly and hugged the husband's body more tightly as if he felt comfortable and did not want to let go.

"Darling ... I can ask you for help." Ardi let go of his embrace and looked in Rianti's eyes.

Rianti only responded with a nod and a smile.

"You must believe completely in the same Mas, never doubt the love and affection that Mas gave you. If one day Mas make a mistake of any magnitude .. please never leave Mas. Can you?"

Rianti who actually does not understand the words of the husband tries to think for a moment.

"Yes can't do it donk Mas .. That's called coercion. Kindergarten children only if they get the wrong punishment. The grown-up does not want punishment." Rianti put a fierce face on her husband.

Ardi hugged his wife's body back.

"I'm willing to take any punishment from you. Just so you don't leave me." Ardi's voice sounded soft and vibrating.

Rianti who felt successful tempting the husband just chuckled amusedly in Ardi's arms.

"I was just kidding. I will never leave this duren palm of mine. I'm definitely going to lose big. Hehe ... Whatever your faults and circumstances may be, I will try to understand. Just don't you ever betray me by looking for happiness in another woman." Rianti tightened the embrace of her husband.

How can I be happy with another woman while you are my happiness, Stella.

"Yes ... Mas will always be the duren palmmu until whenever it is. And you will forever belong to Mas, whatever your situation and condition."

"I love you, Mas."

Ardi kissed Rianti's head and stroked her slowly.

"I love you more, baby."

"Yes, it was night. We sleep yuk," said Rianti as he let go of a hug and went into the blanket.

"Are you sure you can sleep?" A flirtatious smile from Ardi.

"Iih what the hell .. already malem nih," said Rianti who held amused because Ardi had attacked his neck first.

"Isn't it more malem more exciting .. let alone we are newlyweds," whispered Ardi.
