Regretting



Chika could no longer hold back her cries. In the taxi, Chika again lamented her fate. Truly losing his mother and father really made his life worse. Moreover, the pregnancy without a husband she had to pass from now on.


"It's good in my mom's belly, baby. I promise you, I will try to take care of you and take care of you. Mama will find a job so you can still get good nutrition in here," Chika stroked her stomach elus. Talk to the children of his love with the man he was proud of.


For almost an hour Chika circled around the city, not knowing where she should go.


"Excuse me, sorry where are we going? Because it's been almost an hour we've been around the city" asked the taxi driver.


"For a moment sir, I think first," replied Chika.


But immediately his eyes rounded, seeing the taxi argo that continues to run until without feeling nominal almost 500 thousand.


"Oh my God, why am I not aware. The money in the wallet can run out if only to get around in this taxi. Oh, I better go to Aunt Renata's house. He's all I have now. I'm sure auntie and om won't hurt me again. They have changed. After all they can definitely help me to go far away from Mas El, the inner Chika.


"Sir, we go to the road cempaka aja yes," said Chika.


"Good mbak."


Luckily, the distance to Renata's house is not too far from the current distance. But Chika's hopes are shattered once again.


When he got there, he accidentally listened to the conversation between Renata and Pandu who deliberately wanted to use himself to drain El's treasure.


Like falling down a ladder. Talks between Renata and Pandu further hurt him.


The house that he considered his only hope of stopping by was no longer there. Chika no longer knows where she's going. The money was running low, forcing him to walk as far as possible. Leaving hypocrites around.


"Mom and papa's takam, I want to go there for a minute. Only there can I feel calm" Chika murmured.

During the trip to Daniel's apartment, somehow El's feelings flail a little. His wife's attitude made El a little nervous. Chika is not usually cold like that.


"Sir, why are you?" Haris broke El's daydream to dare to ask. That's all because since coming out of the house, El's face looks riled up.


"Ris, if it turns out that my mind is wrong. Means I've been bad and outrageous with Chika."


"Yes you're right Ris. If my mind is wrong, it means I have been outrageous. But if what I think is true? Him or me being outrageous?" el's heart hardened again and he still believed what he thought of Chika was true.


"Yes sir, don't think badly. Better you ask someone who is an expert and understands your problem."


"Hmmm. The road is a little accelerated yes Ris," said El.


"Good sir."


Although it looks cool and cold on Chika. But he still cares about Chika. Every second, every minute and every time he checked his wife's whereabouts on his cell phone.


"Where is he, what is he doing? Is his condition getting better? I better check his whereabouts first," El took his phone. Look at the position of Chika who is still at home. His heart felt a little calmer. It turned out that his worry earlier was just an unwarranted fear.


A moment later, El and Haris arrive at Daniel's apartment. There he began to tell about the problems that had made him restless.


Not a solution, Daniel laughed at him. The richest CEO in the country doesn't know virginity.


The face of El became sour. Why Haris and Daniel were listening to a joke from his mouth.


"Niel, quickly explain to me. Is Chika really not a virgin?" ask El.


"Sit down first. I'll explain, " said Daniel.


An hour and a half of Daniel's time was wasted just to explain to El. Slowly El could finally smile but a moment later he remembered his wife who was at home. Maybe his body is getting weaker because of the pain.


Regret began to envelop El's heart. With no strings attached to Daniel, El pats Haris on the shoulder and invites him to go home.


"El where are you going?" exclaim Daniel.


"go home," answered El flatly as he walked out of Daniel's apartment.


In his steps El tried to call his wife's number, unfortunately several times his call was missed. "Why don't you pick up my phone, baby. Are you on a break? Sorry for my attitude all along. I should have asked Daniel. It's not just doing things that always hurt your heart. Now I'm relieved. And from today on, I promise I will always trust you" El spoke to himself with his heart.


In the front steering wheel, Haris occasionally looked towards El. All the problems are over, he thought. Without them knowing, if Chika has left everything. And now he doesn't know where.
