Diandra felt his body limp to hear Adit's words, what else in addition to the unfriendly views of both Galen's parents.
"I'm not lying. Why did I make up that story. Bang Adit intercepted me on my way home and drugged me. Then he was harassed in an empty house. You believe me, don't you, Galen?"
"What am I doing that for. I can get women in touch without having to force it. There will be a lot of women I want to sleep with!" adit said with a sharp look at Diandra.
"I'm not lying .. I'm not lying" Diandra said in a trembling voice.
"Now I'm asking you all which one of you believes me or this woman. The new woman came into our family. I don't know what it means to accuse me."
"Papa, Mama, Galen. Why would I lie. There is no advantage to me accusing bang Adit. I leave everything to God. If no one believes my words, what can I do."
"Diandra, did you before you got married to Galen, already know Adit?" ask Mama.
"I don't know him" replied Diandra.
"Why would Adit harass you if you never met? Was Adit drunk that night? Why didn't you report to the police?"
"I don't know what the real motive is for Brother Adit to do that. Only he knows the real reason. But Brother Adit once said that all he did because he wanted to repay Galen," Diandra replied.
"Reply Galen? Why would Adit retaliate against Galen? My mom's son never fought. Diandra, stop. Don't make any more drama. Not funny. If Adit did that, as Papa said, have you reported to the police about your abuse?" ask mama again.
"I swear, Ma. I'm not lying. I didn't report the case because I was embarrassed. Anyway, I was shocked until I couldn't talk."
"Can't talk? What lies are these. Just tell me what you mean by lying. You like me?" ask Adit.
Diandra could no longer hold back her tears. He felt very cornered. Her crying spilled over her cheeks.
"Diandra's not lying. I testified that she was raped and couldn't talk. I waited for him during the trauma. I believe everything Diandra said. He can't lie!" said Galen.
Galen approached Diandra and hugged his wife. Diandra's cry finally broke in Galen's arms.
"If she ever got raped, and you testified. Why do you still want to marry her, Galen?" ask Mama.
Mama's words made Diandra shocked. The face of Galen.
"Because I love Diandra so much. I don't care about the past."
Diandra let go of Galen's embrace. He wiped his tears violently. Diandra stared intently at Adit.
"Remember Bang Adit, lies will only save you temporarily, but will destroy you forever.You can hide from your mistakes, but not from your regrets. You can play with your drama, but not with your karma. The laws of nature are just, whoever hurts one day will be hurt."
"We'll see, Diandra. Who is lying!" adit.
"Stop it, it's night. I hope all this is just a misunderstanding. Diandra, you can apologize to Galen and Adit for lying and making them both born" said Mama.
"Why should I apologize, Ma. I'm not lying. For Chrissakes. If I lie, I'll get a reply. Sorry if because of my honesty this makes your family quarrel. Sorry, maybe I was wrong. But it is not wrong to have lied, but it is wrong to enter this family. Again sorry."
Diandra turned her body and walked away from everything. Diandra doesn't want to prolong the problem anymore. His presence may have been unwanted by mama and papa Galen.
Seeing Diandra who was starting to move away, Galen stepped in. However, his steps were held back when he heard Mama's words.
"Let the woman go. There are still many other women you can make a substitute for. Just getting married she had made this family quarrel. Don't be so blinded by Galen's love. If he was a victim of harassment from a man. He doesn't deserve you. Split immediately!" say Mama.
Galen turned her back, facing Papa, Mama and Adit.
"Diandra's not what you think. I believe everything Diandra said, I love her. Sorry if my mom disagrees. But I will never part from Diandra."
"If you prefer that woman, you know the consequences. I don't want to see her face in front of my mom anymore. You must understand what this mother said."
"I fully understand, I will never bring Diandra back to this house again. Again I'm sorry, Ma, Papa. I trust Diandra more than Adit" said Galen. He took his breath and looked at Adit.
"Right now maybe you can dodge, Bang. But I swear, you'll regret it. You have forcibly taken away the honor of an innocent woman. Remember, Diandra has nothing to do with Tasya. Why would you hurt her just to get back at me? I pray that you will be haunted by your regrets for life!"
Galen stepped out of her family, with quick steps she walked over to catch up with Diandra.
