Forced to endure

Forced to endure
Chapter 42



What happened happened happened. My husband cheated, my best friend's husband cheated too. And they both relate to the same woman. It was incredible.


Just like me, Likha also decided to forgive her husband, maintaining her household for the sake of her son.


Now I've lived my new life. Trying to forget what Mas Adji once did. My life is happy even though I feel something is still stuck in my heart.


Mas Adji is getting more attention as my pregnancy ages. He went to work with my car. Every day he drove me to the stall as he went to work. Then tonight I'll call to be picked up if I want to go home.


I had tried to reduce my activities at the stall, but before the holiday I actually did not have time to rest. Orders grew so much that I hired one more person to help me. I'm really busy with the order.


Sometimes I was exhausted when I got home and did not have time to serve Mas Adji. Luckily Mas Adji never protested. He's very understanding.


"Mas, tomorrow you bring a motor yes, the car wants me to use to deliver the order."


"Aren't we going to the afternoon after work? As usual?"


After I got pregnant it was Mas Adji who dropped off if there were any orders nearby. He usually does it after work or at night.


"No way, this is asking to be delivered in the morning or afternoon. Afraid that you'll hunt for the night."


"Oh ... Yes already. Means I went to work right away nganter you to the kiosk first right?" I nodded and then I fell asleep.


Her morning...


"Are you going to overtime?" Mas Adji usually only works half a day on Saturdays.


"I don't know, baby ... Why the hell?"


"Will it be Sunday night? Poor Keisha, I've been busy lately so I haven't spent much time on her. If you don't have overtime tonight we can go for a walk."


"We'll see you later ... I'll call you later."


Then after breakfast Mas Adji left for the office and I went to the kiosk.


Arriving at the kiosk I was immediately preoccupied with packages that must be sent immediately. Not to mention the large party orders that also had to be sent today.


"Mbak, the gamis order for the village next door has been called for delivery. He said he was waiting."


"Oh ... Ja. Should have been sent this morning. I haven't had a chance. Have you prepared the stuff? Let me drop you off now."


"It's Mommy." Shanti showed the order she was referring to.


"Help me get that in the car."


So much work until the order that should have been sent this morning I just had to take between afternoons. I have to take this order to the next village, precisely Eva's village. Mothers there order a robe for members of routine studies that are quite a lot.


"Wouldn't be accompanied?" ask Shanti. He was sorry to see my belly start to grow but I had to lift heavy weights.


"No need Shan, there's gonna be someone to help nurunin' this over there."


"OKAY. Be careful, Mother."


Finally I decided to find an alternative way so that there was no need to pass in front of Eva's house.


Arriving at the destination I immediately apologized for my delay. But the mothers in this village are very kind and do not mind it. I talked for a while to make sure there were no complaints of wrong size or any defect in clothing. After that I resigned.


I was very tired and decided to go home. Somehow my inner voice pushed me through Eva's house and I ended up doing it. I took the road that crossed Eva's house.


From the beginning I was already restless and more and more agitated when I saw Eva's house from a distance. I drove my car slowly. Just as I was passing in front of Eva's house I noticed there was the exact same motorcycle as Mas Adji's motorcycle.


My heart just beats unbecoming. Trying to think positively, it's not Mas Adji's bike. Maybe it is just the same because such motors there are thousands in number. My heart seems to deny it.


Finally I pulled over my car and stopped to call Mas Adji. I waited long enough for Mas Adji to pick up the phone from me.


"Hello ... "


"What's the matter, baby?"


"Have you gone home yet?"


"I'm sorry baby .. I'm late. But it's about to be finished. Maybe I'll be home soon." Mas Adji's voice sounded ordinary, there was no sign of being nervous or hiding anything.


"Oh ... Yes already. Let me know when I get home." I hung up.


Mas Adji overtime, he's still in his office. That's not Mas Adji's bike.


I'm trying to convince myself it's not Mas Adji's bike. The longer I am the more unsure. My heart forced me to come down.


Finally I got out of the car and went straight into Eva's porch. I approached and saw the license plate. Exactly the same as the Mas Adji motorcycle plate, this Mas Adji motorcycle, is not wrong anymore.


My chest wants to explode. With trembling hands I grabbed the phone in my bag. I called Mas Adji's number one more time.


Many times I tried to call but did not pick up. For the umpteenth time, there was an answer.


"I'm again on the road Win ... We'll be home soon."


As soon as Mas Adji's voice and straight away he hangs up from me. Mas Adji is lying. How could he be on the road if his motorcycle was in front of me?


I can't just shut up. I'm sure Mas Adji is inside Eva's house. I looked around like a confused person. Eva has no neighbors, the house itself is far from the other houses.


Finally I called the head of the study who had ordered clothes at my place. I asked her to follow me to Eva's house. That's all that came to my mind.


Not long after, the head of the study with other mothers came. I was surprised to see people coming this much. No problem, it's good. They can be witnesses to the depraved deeds of Mas Adji.


My chest was rumbling, but my legs and hands were limp as if I had no energy.


"Why did you let this massage practice in your village? Can you guarantee that they don't do immoral acts inside? My husband is in my mothers... What do you think they're doing now?"


"Relax to the Winda ... " The chairman's mother tried to calm me down. "I'll call Eva, when the door opens we go in and find your husband inside" she whispered.


I'm nodding. "I'm sure my husband is inside."
