You're not an angel



Morning time.


Rianti searched for the whereabouts of her husband who was not in the room when she woke up.


"Mas ... mas Ardi .. Where are you?"


Rianti look everywhere, from the terrace, bathroom, kitchen, warehouse, even the backyard where to dry clothes.


"Is Ardi in the workspace? I'll follow you ...."


Rianti slowly stepped up the stairs and arrived at the door of Ardi's study.


"Well, I hope no one gets missed. Hide everything. I'll be there by noon."


After hearing the short conversation Rianti was about to knock on the door but was shocked by the existence of Ardi who had opened it


"Darling ... What are you doing here?" Ardi looks nervous.


"I nyariin Mas .. I think Mas left me."


Ardi tried to neutralize his nervousness by smiling and hugging the wife's small body.


"You're his mind don't go anywhere. How can I go about my happiness, hmm ...." Ardi flicked Rianti's nose and took her down from the top floor.


"Who did you call?" Rianti looked up at her husband's face.


Ardi again looks ragged.


"That's .. that's Mang Udin. Mas said we'll move there today.'


"today? Why sudden? We're not going to Veno's place."


"Today we go to where Veno used to be, it goes straight there."


Ardi led his wife to sit in a chair.


"So .. now you don't ask much yes .. we used to have breakfast was packed."


Rianti was still speechless seeing her husband painstakingly make her his favorite chocolate jam sandwich.


"This is the Princess" said Ardi, putting bread on Rianti's plate.


Again Rianti smiled got a sweet treatment from a husband who was so far adrift.

The Veno house.


"You are conscious ...." Veno entered the room with a tray filled with porridge and water.


"Yes, that was ...."


Shinta tried to sit down.


"Aww.cn ...." Shinta grimaced holding her head.


Veno immediately put the tray on the nightstand.


"You don't move first. You're still not recovered." Veno helps Shinta to sit down and gives a pillow on Shinta's back.


"I'm where? I thought I was in the hospital, but there was a hospital that was this big."


"Udah do not think much first .. This you eat first porridge." Veno placed the porridge on the small table he placed in front of Shinta.


Shinta looked at the porridge and then looked at Veno.


"You made it, brother?" Shinta looks in disbelief.


"Yes not .. I bought it in front of the complex" replied Veno who was sitting next to Shinta.


"Hmm .. I guessed." There was a grinning smile on Shinta's bruised face. He also ate with a slow porridge that was almost cold without remaining.


"Goddessa ...." Shinta put down the glass that she had also drunk the water until it was empty.


"It's over, right? Now try to explain how your story ends like this. Fortunately, Rianti told me. If not, how do you feel!" Veno clucked in annoyance given last night's events.


"Yes that Brother. Mr. Haikal misunderstood. He thinks I like him."


"I guessed it. That's because you're too aggressive! When you first met me, you have dared to talk about the non-no ..trus fit in the hospital also you like not having self-esteem. Not even with Haikal are you." Veno stared cynically at Shinta.


"Yes I know. I'm the one who's wrong. I can't hide the feeling of liking someone. I'm not good at being hypocritical. I like older men. But clearly, I never seduced a married man." Shinta's eyes began to glaze over.


Veno was silent for a moment after hearing Shinta's explanation.


"Even so, he must continue to be punished. But why did you let him? You're not an angel, because angels don't act like you." Veno was still upset considering Shinta's behavior a few days ago.


Shinta breathed her breath.


"Because I don't want his son to lack the affection of a father.I don't want them to be the same as me who only gets the affection of another family." Shinta cried as she pleased.


Veno pulled Shinta's body into his arms. Seeing Shinta cry, made her heart also become sick.


"Have ... Don't cry anymore. I'm sorry, I'm not understanding.When you're sick like this I'm turning a milk and cornering you." Veno stroked Shinta's long hair gently.


Not how long.


Ceklek.


The door opened and Baskoro was there.


Baskoro was stunned at the unusual sight. He saw a young girl crying with bruises on her face, causing Baskoro to stare intently at Veno.


The surprised Veno, stood up immediately. It's hard to swallow his own saliva


"Papi .. This isn't what Papi thinks."


Baskoro looked at Shinta who was wiping away the traces of her tears.


"You why? Who is the one who has done such a despicable thing!" Baskoro's voice was high.


"Sorry Om, Mas Veno did nothing wrong. On the contrary, it was he who helped me, if there was no Mas Veno somehow my fate." Shinta was crying again.


Hearing the girl's statement made Baskoro a little calm. She scratched Shinta's hair.


"Yes, don't cry. Om trust you. Even if it's Veno that makes you this smart. It's gonna put him in jail."


Baskoro stared intently at the veno.


"Let's go with the papi out!"


In the living room, Veno told Baskoro everything.


"The girl's ass. If he wanted to, he could stay here for a while until the wound healed. Papi did not have the heart to see it," said Baskoro.


Ting tong.


"Let Veno aja Pi open."


Outside the house, Ardi and Rianti are standing behind the door.


"Let's go in, please" said Veno mingled with the guest and his cousin.


The three of them entered the living room and met Baskoro there.


"How are you, Om" said Ardi who was followed by Rianti from behind.


Baskoro greeted Ardi and invited them to sit down. Ardi's face slightly changed when Baskoro seemed to be remembering something when he looked at his wife.


"You're Ardi's wife? What's yourname?" Baskoro looked at Rianti and then looked at Ardi.


"My name is Rianti Om."


"But why does your face seem familiar .. It feels like Om has seen you, but where is it?"


Ardi and Veno look at each other.


"Maybe at Om's clothing store, you know, he used to work there?" ardi said while looking at Veno as if giving a hard code to his cousin.


"Aaahh yes Pi .. She's Shinta's friend too. So he came to see Shinta. Come Rianti come with me, Shinta is waiting for you inside.
