Secretive



It was night time when Mama Nia came home from the hospital. Hearing from her housekeeper who said Nia came home alone without her husband with a puffy face, made Mama Nia have a bad feeling.


Mama Nia rushed to her daughter's room and knocked on her door. Not long after, slowly the door of the room was opened and showed Nia wearing a knee-length nightgown with small straps tied on both shoulders.


"Darling, you went home alone?"mama asked, looking worried.


"Yes, ma,"so Chintania was lethargic as she walked towards the bed. Mama Nia followed behind Chintania and sat on the edge of the bed, next to Nia.


"Darling, do you have a problem with your husband?"asked Mama Nia to look into.


"Ma, I don't want to continue this marriage anymore. I want a divorce from Mas Juna," Chintania said to her mother with a low face.


Mama Nia rounded her eyes hearing what the daughter was saying, "Why, dear? What the hell's going on? Why do you suddenly want to get divorced? Weren't you all right?"cerocos mama Nia with facial expressions that are difficult to read.


"Ma, all this time, it turns out Mas Juna never loved me, ma. In her heart was not me, but another woman. Mas Juna could never forget his first wife. He just made me a friend in bed, a little bit of an impingement to meet his biological needs" Chintania said with crystals that began to fall from his eyelids.


Mama Nia takes Chintania to


in his arms,"I'm sorry mama, baby! It's all mama's fault. Mama set you up with that guy. Sorry mama!"mama Nia said with a face expression that displayed guilt, "Mama will support whatever your decision, as long as you are happy," continued mama Nia while stroking the head of Chintania who was in her arms.


There is a great guilt in the heart of Mama Nia for marrying her beloved daughter to an inappropriate man, a man who apparently could not move on from her past. And now, the man had made his beloved daughter cry.


Although the woman in his arms right now is not his biological daughter, but Mama Nia loves him as much as Mama Nia loves her own biological daughter.


After a while in Chintania's room and hearing what made Chintania want a divorce from Arjuna, she comforts her daughter, mama Nia returned to her room.Chintania was seen lying on her back on the bed while staring at the ceiling of her room. Tonight he and Arjuna slept separately after months of sleeping in the same room and one bed.


The night is getting late, but Chintania has not been able to close her eyes. His heart felt empty to sleep in this room alone. Chintania used to sleep with Arjuna, the man she slowly loved, as well as the man who made her very disappointed, hurt and heartbroken.


Although lately Chintania always sleeps back to Arjuna, but somehow every time he wakes up, Chintania is always in Arjuna's arms. And it is undeniable Nia, that Nia felt comfortable while in her husband's arms.


While in different houses and rooms, Arjuna also could not close his eyes. The man stared at the side of the bed that used to be where Chintania lay. His heart felt empty when he saw the place next to him was empty.


Chintania's speech this morning was like a vidio playing over and over in her brain. Chintania's desire to divorce with her greatly disturbs her mind. Although Arjuna cannot love Chintania, Arjuna feels comfortable with Chintania. It was all because of the resemblance Chintania had with Kinara that could treat her longing for Kinara.


In the morning, Arjuna's face looks lethargic, his eye circles look blackened. Because of thinking too much about Chintania, Arjuna could not sleep last night.


"Jun, grandfather doesn't know, what made you and Nia fight until Nia went home to her parents. But I hope you guys make up soon. Invite your wife to come home! It is not good for husbands to fight until they separate the bed, especially until the house is separated like this," said Abimana giving advice after they finished breakfast. Abimana saw the sadness that was emanating in his grandson's eyes.


"Woman is a bent bone, if left will be more crooked, but if forced straightened will break. So, Mas Juna had to treat him gently and patiently. Try to persuade Ms. Nia slowly, and do not stop until you make up,"


"Attending and admitting wrong might help Mas Juna to make up with Mbak Nia,"timpal Agus who is an expert in seducing women.


"Sir Agus is like Pak ustadz only,"bik Iyem chuckled.


"If his ustadz is like Agus, it could be, his worshipers on all polygamy, Yem,"sambar Abimana made Bik Iyem again chuckle, while Agus grumbled.


Yesterday morning Abimana and Agus saw Arjuna chasing Chintania who was crying out of the house. So the two can guess that Arjuna and Chintania are fighting. Especially yesterday until the night Chintania also did not return home. Arjuna said Chintania went home to her parents. Therefore, this morning Abimana and Agus advised Arjuna.


Hearing the words of Abimana and Agus, Arjuna fell silent. The problem is, here the guilty one is him. Arjuna knew, it would be difficult for him to persuade Nia. But this morning, before leaving for the office, Arjuna decided to meet Chintania. Arjuna will try to re-persuade Chintania as his intention was last night and also because of the advice of Agus and his grandfather.


At Nia's mom's house, Chintania, who slept late last night, woke up when her stomach suddenly felt nauseous and like being stirred. Nia immediately ran to the bathroom and vomited all her stomach contents until her body felt weak. Cold sweat appeared on his face that looked pale from vomiting. His body felt weak without power, until finally the body slumped leaning against the bathroom wall.


Moments later, with the rest of her strength, Chintania tried to get up and step towards her bed, then lay down her limp body. His head felt dizzy until Nia chose to close her eyes.


Seeing that the time had shown at seven in the morning, but his daughter had not woke up yet, Mama Nia also had an unpleasant premonition. Finally the middle-aged woman went to Chintania's room, "Honey, are you awake? Honey!"mama Nia exclaimed from outside Chintania's room, but there was no answer from inside.


The worried Mama Nia opened the door to her daughter's room and found her daughter still lying on the bed, "Honey, are you sick?"mama asked Nia with a worried expression as she sat on the edge of Chintania's bed and found her daughter looking very pale.


His hands touched Chintania's cheeks and forehead to check Chintania's body heat. But Mama Nia did not feel Nia's body hot, but her face was pale. Mama Nia stroked Chintania's head gently.


"Mama!"muttered Nia who woke up when her mother stroked her head.


"You sick? Mama check, huh?"tawar mama Nia, still stroking Nia's head.


"No, ma. It seems I'm just catching a cold, "reject Chintania in a weak voice.


"Wind up? But your face is pale, honey. Mama will check on you," said Mama Nia then moved from that place without being prevented by Chintania.


Moments later, the woman returned with her medical equipment. Without being able to resist, Chintania resigned as her mother began to examine her body.


"What's your complaint, baby?"mama asked Nia to start checking Chintania's blood pressure.


"I just woke up instantly nauseous and vomiting until my body felt weak and my head was dizzy, ma'am" said Chintania made mama Nia frown.


The middle-aged woman who served as the chief director of her own hospital immediately asked, "Darling, when was the last time you came to the moon?"mama Nia asked making Chintania surprised. Nia knew which direction her mother was currently thinking.


Although he was surprised, Chintania seemed to remember the last time he got his monthly guests, "Li. five weeks ago, ma," Chintania replied looking nervous.


After checking blood pressure, heart rate and others, until the last time checking Nia's stomach, the face of Mama Nia who had been seriously checking was immediately turned into happy.


"Honey, I am sure you are pregnant right now. Finally mama will be a grandmother," said Mama Nia with her smile smirking Chintania who still seemed shocked by what her mother said.


"A.. Am I pregnant?"asked Nia with trembling lips and teary eyes.


"Yes, honey. You will become a mother and you will become a grandmother"so Nia mama with happiness.


"Ma, please keep this a secret from anyone, especially Mas Juna," Chintania said, making the happy look on Mama Nia's face gradually fade. Mama Nia just remembered what caused her daughter to go home. Her daughter came home to seek a divorce from her husband.
