Forced to endure

Chapter 77

It's late at night. I went to the living room to see Eva. I told him to rest there. She must be exhausted from having walked so far while carrying her child.

"What's your plan now?" I approached Eva who was caressing her child.

Eva fell silent. If I were Eva, I wouldn't know what to do.

I have no money, no place to live, no friends, no parents or relatives. She also has a small baby that she has to live with because her father doesn't want to take responsibility.

Eva said, Haris is a very shameful coward.

"Maybe I'm out of town. I still have a brother out of town. I can't go back to my village because they've kicked me out."

I felt guilty hearing Eva's answer. He got kicked out of his village because of me, too. If at that time I did not bring the villagers to raid his house he would not have been driven from there.

"No need to feel guilty. It wasn't your fault. They should have done that. I've done an embarrassing deed."

Looks like Eva understands my feelings.

"I'm going to sell my house to start living out of town. Win ... Can I ask you another favor?!"

"Solicit what please?"

"You may call me ignorant, but you are my only hope. Will you take me to my contract? I want to take my things but I don't dare."

I thought for a second. Do I need to help Eva? I'll meet Mas Adji there and things will get worse but if I don't help him, then who else? I couldn't bear to hear the story earlier.

"All right."

Eva smiled, and once again her eyes were back in tears.

"Thank you."

I'm nodding.

"I'll get the car ready first."

I left Eva in the living room. But before going to the garage I asked my maid to wrap up food for Eva. Let's just say I'm stupid, but I really can't bear to see how things are. Maybe later he could not eat because he did not have the money to buy it.

"Are you ready?" ask me after the car is out of the garage.

Eva looks doubtful.

"Why?"

"The contract lock is Mas Adji's, but I'm afraid I'll have to meet him. What if he ... "

"I'll accompany you."

Before long Eva and I had arrived at the rented house that she and Mas Adji lived in. The house looks empty. The lights have not been turned on maybe Mas Adji has not come home.

"Mas Adji hasn't come home yet. I should how?" Eva looks worried. Several times he tried to push the door, but could not open because Mas Adji locked it.

"How is this Win? I'm afraid Mas Adji will be home soon."

"Eva, if you want to enter you have to wait for Mas Adji to come home and ask for the key. Wait ... "

"But I'm afraid to meet him."

While waiting, Mas Adji did not come home. Actually I can call him but I don't want to get involved in his and Eva's business. I brought Eva here purely because I felt sorry for her, not because I wanted to interfere.

"Va .. I'd better go home," I said after accompanying Eva long enough.

"I'm sorry I can't accompany you any longer." Eva looks resigned but she has no choice.

I got into my car and was about to leave. I haven't had time to start the car engine, I saw a male figure coming up on a motorcycle. I'm sure it was Mas Adji even though it wasn't very clear on his face.

I stayed in the car and observed Mas Adji from my place. He parked his motorbike in the courtyard, then staggeringly stepped towards the door.

"Is he sick?" muttered.

I kept watching Mas Adji. I was shocked to see her suddenly slap Eva and push her body down. I saw the incident clearly. Apparently true, Eva didn't make up the story.

I can't just shut up. I got off the car to stop Mas Adji.

"Mas ... Stop it!!!"

Adji turned to me.

"Winda ... ??? Is this really you???" Mas Adji looked at me in disbelief. "I must be drunk. How could Winda be here!?!"

"What are you doing, Mum?"

I approached Eva and helped her stand up. His son cried loudly because he fell with Eva.

Eva looks really scared. His face was pale and his body was trembling. She must have been very traumatized by what Mas Adji had done to her.

I barely recognized Mas Adji from this close distance. His face was overgrown with an unkempt beard and mustache. Her hair began to grow long and covered part of her face. Mas Adji's appearance was very messy.

"Love darling ... What are you doing here?" Adji asked again. "Is this really you? Are you looking for me? You want to come back to me?" Mas Adji staggered not because of illness, but because of the influence of liquor. I can smell it from the smell.

"What are you doing Mas? You hurt a woman?!"

"What?" Mas Adji is like a dazed man. He looked towards Eva who was standing in fear behind me.

"That woman? Huh ... He who ruined our household Win. That damn woman that made us part!"

"Don't blame anyone else! We parted ways because of your mistake!!! Not anyone else!!!"

"Look what he's done to me Win, I lost you, lost everything! I left my duty as a father because of that woman!!!" Mas Adji is back on emotion. He had already grabbed Eva's hand and was about to hit her again.

"Mah ...!!! Stop...!!!" my prevent. "Why did you become like this?!"

"He tricked me Win ... He was just using me to finance his life, making me responsible for what I shouldn't!!! That woman has deceived me!!!" Mas Adji sat on the floor like a child. He must be unconscious because of the influence of the alcohol he drank.

"Give me the keys to the house." I asked Mas Adji for the house keys so that Eva could go in and get her things. If I obey Mas Adji will definitely not be finished.

"You wanna come in? You want to stay here with me?" mas Adji looked pleased.

He immediately stood up and with a staggering step tried to reach the door. After a while Mas Adji had not yet managed to open the door. He's so drunk he can't even find a keyhole.

"Give me the key, let me!"

"This ... This is darling ... " Mas Adji handed me the keys to his house.

I told Eva to come in as soon as the door opened. While Mas Adji didn't pay much attention to Eva because there was me.

Mas Adji immediately laid his body on the sofa.

"Love darling ... I miss you so much, come back with me yeah ... Wanna?" Mas Adji kept talking but I ignored him, until it stopped and turned into a snoring sound. Finally Mas Adji fell asleep.

Actually I wanted to go straight home, but I was afraid that suddenly Mas Adji woke up and did violence to Eva again. I finally waited until Eva finished packing her things and took her out of the house. If you want to help, don't half.
