Look at Me, My Husband
S2 Mother of my son 54
Waking up in a foreign room, Naina's head throbbed violently. Dizziness still greeting, the world seemed to spin, his gaze was twitching. A burst of sunlight burst in from the gap of the room window. Naina could feel the morning scorching attack part of her face.
“My head ...” Naina massaged her head. He is not fully aware of his current situation.
It takes a few minutes to gather the memories that are unraveling. Those beautiful eyes blinked a few times before finally opening perfectly. The shadowy view is increasingly clear, along with the memory that was lost slowly accumulating.
Naina jerks. His last memory was in the toilet, where his company's event was held.
Deg—
Forcing her weak body to get up and sit down, Naina's heart grew more and more unfazed. Rumbled when he realized his current condition. There was not a single thread attached to his body. Her naked body was covered in a thick blanket.
“What is this?” ask Naina to panic. His chest rumbled violently, clutching the sagging blanket featuring his chest chunk perfectly rounded.
Spreading his gaze around the room, the young mother slightly breathed a sigh of relief as she made sure no one was with her. He's alone.
“How can I get here? Who brought me here?” Naina monologues. His eyeballs implied a large question mark, spinning from one corner to the corner of the room to find out. Tanya was getting sipped even more on the chest when she saw her black dress neatly folded over the sofa, not far from the bed.
“Who did all this?” ask Naina. The panic had not disappeared, instead he grew more frightened when he felt something was wrong with his body.
Her body feels crumpled. He did not remember anything, but he felt that something had happened to him. As a married woman, despite not knowing what she had been through last night. His instincts say that last night something happened to him.
“What I ...” Naina terngaga, her neutrals are breaking. Running to the bathroom, he had to figure it out and make sure of himself.
Half an hour later, he came out with his body wrapped in a towel. The headache and dizziness disappeared instantly. Her chest was tight, not knowing how to. He believes something happened last night, but he doesn't know who. How he should find out the culprit.
Sitting on the side of the bed, his eyes condensed. Trying to be strong and not crying, but the clear liquid in his net pressed out. Can't be arrested.
“I should how? Who is he?” Naina said softly in the middle of her sobbing. His hands clenched, holding the feeling that was accumulating on the chest. Remembering her daughter, Naina's feelings grew even more chaotic. Must have been Rima and Vienna looking for him all night.
Grabbing a handbag stacked on top of her neatly folded dress, Naina made sure of the items inside her tiny bag. Everything is still complete, the phone and wallet are still there, no items are missing, except for the identification. The young mother seemed to be thinking, what steps she should take.

“Mbak .. sorry. I don't know exactly what happened. Suddenly woke up already in room 205 of this hotel. Room 205 booked on whose behalf, yes?” ask Naina to find out to the reservation section.
“Wait a minute, Mom,” says hotel staff on duty.
“On behalf of Mother Naina Pelangie. The identification card is still here, but the administration has been finalized. Mom can get out anytime,” is obviously the girl in light blue uniform with the hotel name embroidered in her boss pocket.
“About, I can get more information where yes, Ma'am. I need to know who drove me here.”
“Here is named only Belinda, from RD Group.” The girl added.
Naina's shoulders sag. He didn't know that name at all. “Mbak, can I check cctv? I need to know who brought it here. There are some personal items missing. I have to find out from the person who drove me here,” Naina said lying.
After persuading for various reasons, Naina is finally allowed to enter the cctv room and make sure of herself. Accompanied by the hotel staff on duty, Naina identifies the face of the girl and a man who took her to the hotel.
“That girl ... whom I met in the toilet before falling unconscious. Yes, I still remember his face. Not wrong again,” great-grandson Naina, his hands squeezed each other when he saw the cctv footage in the hotel lobby.
“But who is that guy?” Naina monologues. Staring at the movement of a sturdy man with a high posture of strapping, accompanying the girl. Looks like a tattoo popped out of the sleeve of his shirt. Wearing a mask to cover half of his face, the man also covered his head with a black hat.
Naina shakes. “No, Sir. Em ... what is cctv in corridor room 205. I want to see that there too. I want to make sure if anyone's in and out of that room.” Naina asked politely.
“Good. Wait a minute, Ms.” It is seen that he replayed the cctv recording in the corridor of the room where Naina spent the night.
Naina could only stare without blinking. Don't want to miss a bit. Her heart was beating uncharacteristically, her hands squeezing the ends of the black dress she was wearing back this morning. He was able to breathe a sigh of relief and threw down his curse when he found that no one had entered the room until morning came, only the girl broke him into the room and soon came out. The big man was just waiting outside the room.
“Thank you, Sir.” The calm look real in Naina's facial line. A smile on his face. Since then, she believes something has happened to her, but she has made sure no one enters her room, except the girl she met while on the toilet.
“Maybe my feelings. I hope nothing happened last night. Maybe that girl took off my clothes.” His breathing felt light, walking out of the room with definite steps. He should be home soon. His daughter must have missed him so much. His phone was dead from when, he couldn't tell Rima.
After Naina's departure, the man who had been accompanying her in the cctv room seemed to be contacting someone.
“Yes, Sir. Everything is in order.” The heavy voice of the hotel worker was heard reporting to someone with his cell phone.
“Good. Thank you for the help. I'll send the money to your account.” There was the masculine voice of a man from across the street.
“Good, Sir.”
“It's been confirmed the woman wasn't suspicious at all, right?”
“Already Sir. Safe. I make sure there will be no problems.”

Naina got off the taxi right in front of her house. The feeling was much lighter, the burden was gone. He just needs to find an excuse for Rima. The girl must be astonished.
As soon as he stepped into the house, Vienna who was playing in the front yard immediately ran to greet him.
“Bundaaa ...” pekiknya. Vienna almost fell when accidentally his small leg tripped the rubble of a former home renovation work that had not been thrown away.
“Sayang. Forgive Mother, last night did not go home.” Naina grabs her daughter's tiny body and anchors her kisses. Struck with guilt, it made Vienna sleep alone without his embrace.
Rima was walking closer. “Mother from anywhere?”
“Sorry. There's a little problem, Rim. So last night I didn't come home.” Naina answered. He has not yet found the right reason.
“Bu. I contacted Mr. Wira last night, because Mother did not return home,”, said Vienna stammered.
“Hah?” Naina jerks.
“Bapak seems to be looking for Mom. Sorry, I called Mom's phone number but it wasn't picked up, last time Mom's phone was off. So I decided to ask Mr. Wira.” for help Rima felt guilty.
“Yes God,” said Naina, put her daughter down and ran inside the house. He must immediately charge the phone battery and tell Wira that he is fine.
