"Please drink," said Maysa, putting two glasses of tea that he brought earlier.
The woman sits next to her husband on a long sofa, while Rafka sits on a single sofa next to Tama. Maysa could see the anxiety her ex-husband was feeling, but she tried not to care.
"So what is it that Rafka's looking for me, is there anything important?" maysa asked breaking the silence.
"Look ... I .. I want to borrow the house we used to live in."
"Borrowing home? Borrowing for what? Hasn't Rafka been living in a rented house with his wife? Rafka and I agreed not to keep the house, right? Why did he suddenly change his mind?"
Rafka looks agitated. Maysa really did not understand what the man was thinking, it was easy to change his mind. The woman had expected this to happen, but she had not expected it to be this fast.
"Actually I want to borrow in a sense, I want to sell it first. Later when I have money, I will buy it for Eira again."
Maysa was so shocked that she glared her eyes. Tama was equally surprised. However, the man could still control his expression. They do not understand why Rafka desperately wants to sell the house.
"Whatchu mean? Why sell that house? You know that the land of the house is a gift from my parents. It is indeed our house that built together, but we have also agreed to give the house to Eira. Now you want to sell it! Don't you have a little shame in saying that?" ask Maysa who is already very emotional.
How could the man behave. They had promised not to bring up the house, but Rafka herself had come here to look for it and was intending to borrow it for sale. If it's borrowed to be occupied, Maysa can still be a polisher, but this is for sale.
For Eira's living alone Rafka can not afford, let alone have to buy a house later. Maysa also has no idea what Rafka's selling the house for. What she had in mind, must have been the money for Vida and her son and she wouldn't have been sincere.
"May, I really need the money. Help me, I promise I'll save up and buy Eira the house back."
"I don't need that promise. Until whenever I would never give you that house. The house is no longer yours, what else belongs to your wife and child" Maysa said.
He does not want the sweat he produced first, now it must be worn by people like them. Until this moment, the woman still remembered every single wound they gave. Plus the disappointment of Eira yesterday, further adding to the wound in Maysa's heart.
"May, this is for my son's life. I beg you to be generous to my son. He's a kid, doesn't understand anything."
Maysa looked at Rafka, not knowing what lies the man had designed to smooth his plan. "You want to tell a lie, especially? Don't take your son's life, he's afraid it'll happen."
"I'm not lying, my son is sick. He had to have surgery because of heart failure. If you don't believe me, you can go to the hospital. I really need a lot of money for the cost of the operation so, I beg of you, please lend me to Eira's house. Once I have the money, I'll buy the house back" Rafka said earnestly.
This time Maysa could also see that earnestness. However, letting go of the house that was not her right, it was extremely heavy for the woman. He was also not sure if he could return it or not.
"The house is no longer our right. Is it worth it that I give it to you and you sell it?"
"Promise? What promise do you mean? I'm not sure you can return it. Worship for Eira alone you can't afford, let alone to buy a house."
"May," said Tama.
He did not like to hear his wife's insulting words. No matter how emotional Maysa was, Tama did not want the woman to say inappropriate words. However, the man understands Rafka's feelings because Tama is also a father.
"Mas, I'm just telling you the truth. Not that I expected him to support Eira. I can still afford to give my daughter a living, too. I just wanted to make him realize that he was a useless man. Who thinks only of themselves, without knowing the difficulties of others."
"Maysa!" tama's screams surprised Maysa.
For the first time the man snapped at her and it was because of defending the person she hated so much. Maysa's heart was deeply wounded, but as much as possible she looked fine. She was not a weak woman who could only cry over fate. Especially now that he is defending his daughter's rights.
Rafka feels bad because of her, Tama gets angry at Maysa. He came only to ask for help, for no other purpose. The atmosphere of the living room suddenly became silent. Until Rafka's voice is heard again.
"May, I know that I've done you a lot wrong, but just this time, I'm begging you to lend me the house. My son really needs money. I don't know who to borrow from anymore. Coming to the bank also I have no guarantees whatsoever. I sold the car for my son's checkup yesterday. All that remains is the motor. If I also sell it too, how can I work to find money for my family? I also have to find money for my son's treatment."
Rafka is still begging Maysa. He was sure the woman would help him. At this time Maysa just want to vent his frustration that has been detained. The man knew very well that his ex-wife was a good person so, it would definitely help even if it was a little too hard.
Back when he was with Maysa, Rafka never thought about whether his family had eaten or not. Now look, the world is upside down. All this time he had to think about everything about the household. If you remember all that, it will only add to the heartache.
"My decision is round. I'm not giving you that house. In addition, the land rights used were also given by the late father. It was my father's hard work. I don't want to sell it. It's the same I didn't appreciate your hard work all this time. It's up to you to say I don't have a heart, but that's my decision. I won't change it, no matter what," Kinan said confidently.
He really didn't want to sell the house. Although the house held bad memories, but it was the result of his father's sweat. He had even planned to dismantle the old building, then rebuild new memories for the princess in the future.
Rafka lowered her head with teary eyes. He no longer has any other way. The man could not have come to his parents. They all have nothing, too. Maybe this is also a form of karma because it has abandoned his wife and child first. He never even gave his daughter a living.
"How about I buy the house" said Tama, making Maysa and Rafka look at the man.
Maysa had no idea what Tama meant. Does the man want to humble himself because of the money he has. Maybe there is something else that is not understood.
"What do you mean say that, Mom? I know you have a lot of money. That doesn't mean you can buy the house. I would never sell that house until any time. I told you from earlier, right?" mahesa said in a disappointed tone to her husband.
