Retno still sobbed while continuing to hold her chest that hurt. Never did he think that the husband who had been accompanying him in an atmosphere of joy and sorrow for decades could be up to the heart to do serong with his own daughter-in-law. Even more poignantly, Mauren and Aaron have been in contact for a long time. When Erik and the woman were still dating secretly behind Varissa.
"It's so stupid of me!" the ringist blamed himself.
Now, she knows where all the money the husband made went. Starting from the turnover of the restaurant they used to manage, to his current working salary as a porters, it all flows into the pocket of his own daughter-in-law.
"You really don't have an adab, Pa! The beast! How much you hurt us!" retno was full of disappointment.
Aaron just kept quiet. All is indeed his fault which is so easily tempted in persuading Mauren. Who would have thought, if the relationship that was originally just for fun without feeling, even turned into a major disaster due to the pregnancy of Mauren.
"B*Al!" as Erik punched the old wall of their house. The man brushed his hair with both hands. Anxious, angry and disappointed mixed into one within him.
"Why should Mauren, Pa?" erik asked his father. Suppose that. If you want to have an affair, does it have to be his wife who was chosen by the Papa?
"He's the one who constantly teases Papa, Rik! It wasn't Papa who started it!" harun defended himself.
Erik rubbed his face rough. He laughed cynically. "But, Papa would too, right?" Aaron looked at her with nanar. "Why didn't Papa tell Erik or Mama at the time?"
Aaron fell back with his eyes closed. Destroyed was the household that he had built only because of a momentary lust that now had misled him. Wanting to return, it was impossible that his family would still accept. Moreover, there is a fetus of his that is now in the stomach of his own daughter-in-law.
"I want a divorce!"
The phrase that Aaron feared the most finally came from Retno's mouth. The middle-aged woman rushed up with the help of her son. Staring at him nyalang, the face of Aaron who looked so surprised to hear his decision.
"You can stay here with that woman j*l*ng! Me and my kids are getting out of here!" break up Retno later. Why defend a man who knows nothing of morals like Aaron.
"Can't do that, Mom! You can't separate me from the kids" Aaron panicked.
"After all that Papa has done for us, Papa still wants to say that Papa loves us? That so?" Erik spoke with excitement. His chest up and down held an unusually agonizing tightness. If Aaron was not his father, then surely Erik's fist had been drifting blindly since then.
"Please, Rik! Papa is really sorry! Forgive Papa, Son!" Aaron stood up. Trying to touch Erik's shoulder but being pushed over by the man.
"From now on, Papa's not my Papa anymore."
In the room, Mauren heard the quarrel of one family with a smiling face satisfied. It's delicious, Erik and Retno want to get rid of it just like that. If you want to go to hell, then Mauren will drag them all together.
Two hours later, the atmosphere of the house turned silent. Mauren can predict that her mother-in-law and her husband must have left. Then, slowly the pregnant woman came out of the room. Intend to go to the kitchen to take food and drinks to fill the stomach that feels hungry from now on.
"For you, my family, it's like this, Mauren!"
The movement of Mauren's hand that was scooping rice onto the plate came to a halt. The pregnant woman took a long breath. He then turned his body and found Papa-in-law and the real father of the child was already standing there holding a kitchen knife.
Mauren's eyes were round. Fear filled his body. To swallow saliva alone, it feels like he is no longer able to.
"Pa-Papa why hold that kayak knife?" mauren asked nervously. The plate that already contained half his rice he held tightly. Be prepared for the worst that comes to mind.
"My wife, kids... Everyone's gone because of you, Mauren!" crush Aaron with a blank look. His steps were getting closer and closer to Mauren.
"By your way! It's all because of you!" The knife lifted. Swinging in the air and almost hitting Mauren's neck.
"Pa... Please wake up, Pa!" mauren said while trying to escape.
Damnit damnit!
The exit was blocked by Aaron. The middle-aged man managed to corner Mauren in the corner of the kitchen.
"Better we die, Mauren! Let's die together!" said Aaron while swinging his knife again towards Mauren.
PRANGS!!
The plate that Mauren had held had flown far earlier and hit Aaron's hand. In an instant, the knife the middle-aged man was holding fell from hand to floor.
"Akh!" the old man was in pain.
It was immediately used by Mauren quickly . The pregnant woman immediately lowered her head to take the knife and pointed it at Aaron.
"Ja-don't come any closer, Pa!" mauren warned with a trembling voice.
"Give me the knife, Mauren!" pinta Aaron who did not heed Mauren's warning. The man came forward blindly to Mauren and the knife Mauren was holding tightly to was now perfectly stuck in his stomach.
"Pa..," cried Mauren restrained. His entire body trembled in fear. Moreover, as he watched Aaron's body slowly slump to the floor and eventually fall down.
"What have I done?" crying Mauren shock. Both of his hands are now covered in blood. Meanwhile, his father-in-law was lying dead on the cold kitchen floor.
Aaron's hand was raised to hold Mauren. His mouth seemed open as if he wanted to say something. But now, Mauren doesn't seem to care. It only came up with one idea: how to escape.
"I have to leave before anyone comes!" mauren said as she ran to her room.
All the things he could still sell in the house he put in a suitcase. Mauren had to escape as fast as she could.
*****
"Papa..," cried Tika when she reached home and instead found her father lying covered in blood on the floor of their kitchen. The girl rushed to the father. Crying while holding his father's body.
"M-Mauren..," said Aaron. The energy he had left to call that name.
"Mauren's mother made Papa this way?" ask Tika.
Aaron nodded. Her daughter's hand she clasped tightly as the pain grew stronger.
"Papa..," cried Tika hysterically.
"M-Ma-af...!" A tear fell from the corner of Aaron's eye. Afterwards, the old man finally let go of Tika's hand and ended up unconscious.
