Look at Me, My Husband
S2 Mother of my son 47
“Sorry, Mom. I didn't sleep with Mas Wira.” Naina was bowed with both hands clasping each other. Guilt and fear melted at the same time.
“I only take care of Mas Wira who is sick .. and I overslept,” Naina continued to be calm.
“I know. That's why I came here early in the morning to care for Wira,” cut middle-aged women with explosive emotions. The look in those eyes seemed as if it was about to swallow the weak prey in front of him.
“You are no longer bound by any relationship. It is not appropriate to be in the same room, in the same bed,” cerocos Mama Wira. He breathed repeatedly to dampen his emotions.
“I actually never agreed to the decision of the Hero to take you and Vienna to stay here. From the beginning ... I offered my home to you and Vienna, but Wira forced.” Mama Wira's voice sounded a little softened.
“Sorry, Mom. I know .. I was wrong. I shouldn't have slept with Mas Wira.”
“Thank God that you know your limits. I personally really understand. Widow hero, definitely needs an impingement. Not sleeping with you, she needs another woman too. I just don't want any woman to come to me and hold me accountable. All this time, I always made sure with any woman my son. I don't want any more, there's a woman coming in and claiming to be pregnant. That's it!” Mama Wira explained. It was seen he pulled out his phone, rubbed it with the tip of his middle finger and threw it on the bed.
“That's the life of the Hero now! I hope you understand why to this day .. I oppose you back to the life of Wira.”
Naina grabs Mama Wira's black phone, seeing everything the former mother-in-law wants to show her. Pratama Wirayudha's name is written in the search field. And underneath, a row of stories about the reported Hero being close to some girls. From the daughter of conglomerates, high-class socialites to famous models.

Naina was too naive all this time, not figuring out how the hero lives. Despite that, Naina was not surprised anymore. A few days near Wira, he began to guess how Wira after getting divorced from him. Jemari Naina started surfing on the other side. Dozens of photos of Wira along with the beautiful girls appeared in the online news.
“Crazy Rich Jakarta, Pratama Wirayudha was caught spending the night in a hotel with the daughter of the owner of Central Mall.” Naina read one of the headlines on the online news site.
In another section, Naina can see a photo of Wira hugging a famous model of the capital at a party.
“That's the life of the Hero after divorcing you. I beg you to understand where you are now, Nai. A Hero is not the same Hero anymore. He already has a life of his own. His achievement today, has nothing to do with you, Nai. Even all your treasures while still together, are stored intact where they should be. The hero gave it all to you. I think that's enough for you, don't expect more. He started from scratch again, armed with only one company owned by the family Wirayudha.”
“I understand, Ma.” Naina bit her lips.
“I hope you don't become a bitch. Please tease another man, but not my son. Simply be the widow of Pratama Wirayudha, but do not dream of being with her again. I think five years .. is enough Wira to waste her time with you.” The sentence that slid from Mama Wira's lips sounded sad.
“Yes, Mom. I understand.” Naina endured her tears and pain alone. Those words are so piercing. Perhaps this was the price she deserved to pay for the mistake of deciding to divorce Wira amid the helplessness of her ex-husband.
“Good if you understand. I came here with Adelia. She is the future wife of Wira .. a model and the daughter of the owner of one of the five-star hotels in Jakarta. Please treat him well. Let him know Vienna. Sooner or later, she'll be a connecting mother for Vienna. You understand, Nai?” ask Mama Wira.
“Ya, Ma.”
Rubbing his chest with his left hand, Mama Wira is seen sitting on the side of the bed. He tried to calm himself down before conveying what was in his heart.
“I don't hate you, Nai. It's just .. I want Wira to get a soul mate who can adjust to her. You've been married and divorced after five years of marriage. You remember ... it is not the Hero who divorces you, but you who ask to part.”
“Ya, Ma.”
“Please don't make things difficult for Wira. You saw those pictures. All of that is a picture of the life of the hero now. Get along with him now. The girls who were with the Hero were not random girls. They are honorable and respected girls. They're all friends of Wira.” Mama Wira explained.
“Yes, Mom. I understand.”
“Alright, if you understand. Don't let me see you get too close to the hero again. I don't want Adel or any woman who has more intentions on Wira to be misunderstood.” Mama Wira grabbed back her phone and walked out of the room.

“Build!” Mama Wira pulls out a blanket that covers her son's body. Entering back into the room Wira, his emotions back provoked.
“Ma, what's up?” tanya Wira rubbed her face rough. Try to get up and sit on the bed.
“What do you mean take Naina to your bed? Do you lack women until you bring the poor widow with you to sleep?” tuding Mama Wira.
“Ma, don't be. She's the Mother of my son. I love her ...”
Mama Wira chuckles. “Love from where? It's not that I don't know .. You party with a lot of girls every night until the morning on the sidelines of your work. Don't dodge!”
“I didn't bring them over my bed!” reject Hero. “My heart is still loyal to Naina to this day,” continued Wira.
“Mama doesn't care. Naina is currently accompanying Adelia in the living room.” Mama Wira walked over and rubbed the forehead of Wira with the back of her hand. He had to make sure his favorite son was okay.
Hearing Adelia's name, Wira immediately ran down. He doesn't want to until Naina misunderstands. None of this was his plan, and he didn't even know Adelia.
“You're being nice to Adelia, Mama will be nice to Naina!” Mama Wira threatened back.
“You know how Naina's character is. When we threaten each other like this, surely you will lose. The nature of Naina who is too obedient and relented is something that makes you crazy but that also dropped you,” said Mama Wira chuckled.
“Again, Mama gave you a virgin girl, which can be compared to a one-child widow. Your own servant again. I've never felt how delicious and difficult it is to live with her. Life has to go forward and better, Wir. Divorced from Naina, you have a chance of getting a girl who is more than your ex-wife. Regarding Vienna, it can be taken care of together. There are also many couples out there, divorced and can get along with each other like brothers. Both take care of children with their respective partners. Vienna's happiness is not just because you can live together.” Mama Wira advises.
“Do not touch, Naina. Then I'll be a little kind to your girls!” resolute Hero.
“Good. As long as Naina follows the rules of the game, Mama won't make things difficult for her. After all, Naina was once part of our family. She loved him, but not as a daughter-in-law. Mama considers Naina Mama's own daughter, mother of Mama's granddaughter.”
“I slept with whom, married to whom ..it's my business. It's not Mama's business. Don't touch Naina!”
“Depends on Naina touching Mama or not.” Mama Wira smiled cunningly.

The hero came out of the room and found Naina sitting at the end of the sofa staring at their daughter who was already bathing with the appearance of her thick powder. On the other side of the sofa, Vienna is playing with a new doll, accompanied by a beautiful girl who tries to attract attention.
“Available?” mama Wira asked, walking ahead of her son. Questions he asked Adelia. Beautiful girl who spends her time in between a busy fashion show schedule.
“Already, Aunt.”
“That's Vienna, his daughter Wira. And this is Naina, his ex-wife Wira. They hitchhiked here temporarily. Their house is being renovated. If their house is ready, both will move from the residence Wira.” Mama Wira explained without being asked.
“MA!” the cry of Wira began to be irritated. He does not like the word hitchhiking embedded in his mother's sentence.
“Nai, what I said was not wrong, right?” ask Mama Wira to seek a defense.
“Ya, Ma.” Naina down. Shame, anguish, anger and isolation, there was a lot of gathering and stifling feeling in Naina's heart.
“Mbak, his son is hard to approach, yes?” adelia asked Naina, diluting the atmosphere. Since trying to invite Vienna to talk, the girl must be willing to all her speech and persuasion ignored by Vienna. All his words were like the wind.
“Ya.”
“You're not going to the office, Nai?” ask Wira.
“Later, Mas. Somewhat new afternoon to the office. I asked Mr. Pieter for permission.”
“Wah, Mbak work? Can take care of children while working?” adelia asked in admiration.
“Yes, there is a nanny who takes care of Vienna during my work, Ma'am ..”
“Call Adel only, Ma'am,” pinta Adelia smile kindly.
Naina was flinched. The appearance of the girl in front of him had stolen his attention. Adelia is very beautiful and fashionable. With the body shape of a Spanish guitar without strings, Adelia looks charming. The expensive fashion that clung to her beautiful body, made Adelia look perfect. One thing that amazed Naina, Adelia was very polite, educated and appreciated. It was Naina's initial impression of the girl Naina believed was not from an indiscriminate family.
“Maybe Adel is the best for Mas Wira. It seems, he loved Vienna sincerely.” Naina tries to strengthen her heart. He did not have the slightest problem with the Hero, but he was not ready to divide Vienna for the other mama. And that was the reality he had to accept when the Wira remarried.
Charming in the living room, ending with a breakfast together. The clinking sound of spoons, forks and plates enliven the dining table that is usually quiet. There are many menus, Mama Wira came to bring a lot of food, both the likes of Wira, Naina and of course Vienna.
“Let's eat, darling,” whispered Naina, feed Vienna. He really feels sad at the moment. The words of Mama Wira had slapped him, so he could not afford to just swallow food. The plate looks clean, there is not even a grain of rice on the plate, accompanying neatly arranged spoons and forks.
Since then, Naina was just busy organizing her feelings while persuading Vienna to eat. Trying to stay put to look okay. Naina considered many things at the moment, especially the feelings of the Hero and Vienna.
If he obeyed his emotions, he would definitely slap Mama Wira with spicy words, tidying up his belongings and Vienna and then lift his legs. He was still able to support Vienna with both hands, without the help of the Hero.
It's just that he can't be selfish anymore. The hero needs Vienna and vice versa. I don't know what their relationship will look like, but he can't be selfish by keeping the father and son apart. In the past, he still had a strong reason, but now, since the truth was revealed it would be unfair to the Hero and Vienna.
“Nai, why not eat?” ask Wira. Ever since he noticed Naina, he knew that something had happened behind him.
