Kamila (The Patience of Breaking Boundaries)
Big Gerrymandering
"I won't let you live quietly, lady ******. I will take away everything my husband has given you. I'm going to destroy you, Ratih Andriana!" Threaten the woman who was talking across there to Ratih.
"Hans is in my hands now. I won't let you see him again, bordel*r!" The woman who spoke on the phone, shouted at Ratih, before then she laughed loudly.
Yes, that's Lydia Sari's voice. The harsh threat he made to Ratih, made Ratih's mind grow increasingly confused. However, the word he said also made Ratih feel confused. What does that woman mean? Why did he say that Hans was in his hands? Is Hans still alive? All those questions circled Ratih's head.
"Ratih, I understand everything. It's a conspiracy. Hans is not dead. It's fake news. Forget about him first. Now, save yourself and your baby. Your life is in danger." Jupri, who had heard the threat from the woman who called Ratih earlier, came to a conclusion on what the woman had said. Jupri realizes that Ratih is under great threat from Lydia.
"You mean, Hans is alive? Then where is he? And that news?" Ratih is still unable to digest about what is happening at the moment. Fortunately, Jupri was with him. So, Jupri could explain about the rotten plan that was playing with Ratih's life.
"Yes, Ratih. You've been played. They are big people, who can easily pay the media for such fake news. The most important thing is to save yourself first. You can't stay here anymore. They will easily find you. Come with me, I'll take you somewhere safe." Jupri invites Ratih to leave the house. The goal is, for the safety of self-Ratih. And Ratih also agreed to what Jupri said. Because now he's not just thinking about himself. There's a fetus that's being conceived.
After packing the goods, and also asking his house assistant to leave the house, Ratih left the house that he had not even been able to enter.
Jupri takes Ratih to a house, which turns out to be his aunt's house. Jupri's aunt also knew Ratih, although she did not know that Ratih was a night woman.
"Ratih, you're staying here for a while, yeah. You don't go out of the house first. If you need anything, just tell Bi Jum. Now, rest. Your soul and body must be very tired. I'm going home to my house. Tomorrow, after work, I'll visit you and Auntie." Said Jupri who was going home, to Ratih who had been silent from earlier and just nodded his nod at the interlocutor.
"Bi, Jupri said back, yes. Ratih Titip's. Assalamualaikum." Jupri kissed the back of the hand of the woman who had been acting as a substitute for her late mother.
"Good, Son. Aunty will take care of your best friend. Be careful on the road, yeah." Bi Jum let go of Jupri from there, and closed the door of his house, shortly after the shadow of Jupri and his motorbike was no longer visible at the end of the road.
"Bi, is Jupri gone?" Ratih finally spoke to Bi Jum. He asked about Jupri, who was no longer seen. It seemed, from just now, Ratih had not paid attention to his surroundings. Until, he also did not realize the return of Jupri.
"Already, Son. Now, you rest, yeah. Come on, Auntie, get in the room. Poor thing, your baby. Don't be so stressed, yeah." Bi Jum who also knew about the pregnancy of Ratih from Jupri, then told Ratih to rest, and drove Ratih to the guest room.
"Bi, thank you. Auntie's been helping me." Said Ratih to Bi Jum, who was replied with the smile of the middle-aged woman.
