"where's my wife?"

Father and Mother Surya turned their eyes away from the tv show they were watching.

"your wife doesn't exist." replied Ms. Surya short

"what?" Bayu raised his eyebrows

"Mitha left with Sherly," explained Mr. Surya again shifted his gaze to the tv show

Bayu rushed to sit on the sofa with his parents.

"father, mother..if I buy a house, can Mitha come home with me?"

"no!" reject Bu Surya raw2.

"but why??" luh Bayu try to be patient

"it's good that Mitha wants me to come back here!"

said Ms. Surya while throwing her face away from her son's gaze.

Bayu breathed a heavy sigh.

The sound of the roar of the car stopped making Bayu get up from the sofa and walk towards the door of the house.

Mr. Saleh rushed down to help get Mitha down from the car.

"thank you Mr. Saleh." said Mitha

The two twilight-age couples rounded their eyes

*****

"Miss Mitha...?"

Mitha who was enjoying the scenery turned to the origin of the voice that called out to her.

Yes, this afternoon Mitha was busy enjoying lunch at a restaurant that served the natural scenery of the hills.

Although it is daytime, but the air blows cool because this restaurant is in the highlands of the hills.

"yes.. sorry who are you?" Mitha looked at the man standing before her.Asing.Mitha did not know him.

"my name is Gama.."

The man reached out his hand and greeted Mitha with a friendly smile.

"sorry to interrupt your lunch.."

"it's okay 2 Mr. Gama.."

"call Gama.."

"Oh..alright.there needs to be what Gama ? have we met before?"

"yet, this is the first time we met.."

Now Gama sat facing Mitha.

"has lunch ? maybe I can order.."

"no need. I'm just for a minute." cut Gama

Mitha looked questioningly at this man before her, especially with the scar on her lips, making Mitha even more curious.

"i mean meet you, just want to ask for help.."

"please?"

"yes, I am Nadia's husband.."

"what?" Mitha was stunned to hear that

"i just wanted to ask for help to take your husband off.."

"but.what does that mean?"

"Nadia's been like a depressed person since coming home from this city.every night always delirious to mention your husband's name..."

Mitha rounded her eyes to hear it.

"for the sake of his love for your husband, I will let him go to be together again as before.."

"what?" Mitha swallowed her saliva

"have you not realized they still love each other ?"

I want Mitha to scream and cry!

"it doesn't feel fair if we continue to survive a loveless marriage..."

"i also have a son2 Miss.but Nadia still loves your husband.."

Mitha was no longer able to say apa2.

"think Miss.for our common good.."

And the man named Gama stood up from his seat, leaving Mitha still pensive.

Mitha looked at the food in front of her without taste.His heart ached.Truly what the man said earlier? Bayu and Nadia still love each other?

TiettTiitt

Mitha looked at her cell phone located on the table that read, Her husband's name flickered there.

"honey.where are you?" pick up her husband from across the street while answering the call.

"i.e., over lunch." replied Mitha lirih.

"where? I'll pick it up now,"

"diresto BC..."

"wait there I'll pick you up,"

Unilateral disconnected calls.

Why are you so considerate like a good husband if you love me just don't.

His tears trickled down without him being held back.

Lord, strengthen me if I have to endure regret...

"can we go back to the apartment?"

Bayu who was cleaning his desk looked at his wife confused.

"do you want to go home?"

"there's something I want to talk about for a second.."

"just talk here ?"

Mitha shook her head looking at her husband.

"well ma'am, your wish is my command..."

Bayu smiled.Softly.His handsome face was unable to hide his happiness can bring his wife home even if only briefly to talk, and it made Mitha more depressed.

"let's go home." take Bayu as soon as he finishes cleaning his desk.

Mitha nodded and grabbed Bayu's hand, grasping it tightly.

They exited the room while holding hands, making the employees look at them enviously.

*****

Mitha sat on the bed, it was fresh after bathing.He was wearing a big Bayu shirt because his shirt2 that was still left was no longer fit.

Bayu came out of the bathroom, wearing only shorts without a top.Busy drying his hair with a towel.

Mitha looked at her husband sadly.

She watched her husband's movements, before finally sitting face to face in bed.

"alright.what do you want to talk about?"

Mitha swallowed her saliva.This handsome and fragrant husband looked at her fixedly.

"i.want we part once this child is born..."

"what?"

And the handsome face before Mitha changed, crimson with eyes gleaming with anger.

"it's not fair to be happy over someone else's.." Mitha tried to hold back her tears.

"look at me!" bayu snapped as Mitha lowered her head, not daring to look at this man's anger before her.

Bayu grabbed his wife's chin and gripped her hard, making Mitha grimace in pain.

"why talk like that?!"

"i just want you to be happy" isak Mitha.

"say the obvious!" bent Bayu hard

"i can't be happy if Nadia suffers from loving you!" shouted Mitha

"what's..?" hiss Bayu looked at his wife

"how can we still be together if you still love each other? I told you right from the start, I don't deserve you, I don't compare to you!" yelled Mitha again

"then? you want to split up??"

"i can't live with a man who doesn't love me." isak Mitha loudly.

"why talk like that?! then what's that on your stomach?? that's my fruit of love !!!" yells Bayu

Mitha cried loudly, vented all the emotions in her, all the pain in her.

"do you love me ?" Bayu rubbed Mitha's cheeks wet with tears.

"i love you, and all fools know I love you so much!" mitha shouted out her feelings.

"choose me or him..."

"i won't choose, '" said Bayu

"i'm the one who's going to back down." isak Mitha.

"never dream of getting away from me!"

"i will not stand in the way of your love.I will go..."

"you're mine, and you'll never walk away from me, remember that!"

Bayu kissed the rough lips of his wife and immediately went out of the room by locking the door.

Mitha rushed down from the bed,

"open! open door!!" mitha shouted bangedor2 loudly the door of the room while crying.

"open the door.let me go.." isak Mitha.

The lady standing across the door was silent.

Letting Mitha who just kept hitting the 2 doors hard, and finally began to weaken.

Maybe he was tired and the atmosphere became quiet.

"Sam.. to my apartment immediately..."
