"Sakia.." cried Papa Aher from the stairs. Papa Aher approached his two daughters and stood between them. "I'm sorry to your sister!" tell Papa Aher to raise his voice
"No! Kia doesn't want to apologize to Sabila"
Sakia nodded back. Her tears kept flooding her cheeks. Her heart ached as the man she called Papa was being unfair to her. And her mother, that middle-aged woman was always silent. In a word, said the neighbor, Mama Mahdania very feared Papa Aher. Why is she crying and crying? I don't know.
"Papa, don't be mad at my sister. Maybe he was still angry because of the problem two weeks ago" Sabila said in tears. Cunning, that's a proper word for Sabila.
"Based on a two-faced woman!" sakia shouted forward and wanted to slap again on her Brother's cheek, but her intention was to undo it when she saw Mama crying.
"You should be happy to be married to Fattan!" snapped Papa Aher.
"Hahahahaha" Sakia let out a laugh. "Papa, Kia doesn't want to be an ungodly child. But Papa's attitude will make Kia an ungodly child. Does Papa know why Kia slapped Sabila? Not Pa, Ma. You don't know and you don't ask why Kia slapped him. Do you know, Papa's favorite daughter came to my house last night and she hugged my husband" Sakia said with blind eyes that returned to tears.
"Kia sure, Papa knows whether such a deed is good. Kia's coming home, Pa, Ma. Please Papa and Mama take care of your health" Sakia said and then left her Mama and Papa's house.
After Sakia died, Papa Aher looked at Sabila. "What's your sister really saying?" papa Aher asked, clenching his hand.
"No, Pa. Sabila did not go to their house. Last night Sabila went down the same path as Sabila's friends" elak Sabila lied.
Plaque...!!
Plaque...!!
"That's a slap because you lied. And because you've been presumptuous to hug your sister's husband!" hardik Mama Mahdania's.
"Do you think Mama didn't know what you were doing last night! Huh!!" bentak Mama Mahdania's.
Sabila cried holding her red cheek and felt sore. "I hate you!!" sabila shouted past to her room.
"And you, all this time I've always been quiet for respecting you as the head of the family but the more days you've been acting unfairly towards our two daughters!!" mama Mahdania. The clear thread of the woman was unceasingly dripping.
Papa Aher was silent, the man felt guilty for his youngest daughter, Sakia.
...--...
Sakia was crying in the bathroom. It was no longer her Papa's attitude that made her hurt but her new Brother Sakia's attitude was aware. "Why is Sabila's sister like that to me?" sakia in between her cries.
"Dec, what's wrong with you?" Fattan knocked on the bathroom door repeatedly.
Cheque-plek... (Door is wide open)
"Wouldn't work?" sakia asked past her husband and then stood in front of the mirror, looking at his swollen face.
"Now Sunday" answered Fattan standing beside his wife.
"He forgot" Sakia said looking at her husband. Fattan pulled Sakia's hand and hugged her tightly.
"So I don't know if Kia's okay. Why Kia to the house of Mama and Papa without taking Kak Fattan. Does Kia think Big Brother still loves Sabila? For God's sake, Deck. Fattan doesn't love Sabila. Brother Fattan just realized Brother's feelings. Kia knows, Kak Fattan was happy when Sabila left and Kak Fattan was happy when Kia wanted to replace Sabila" said Fattan sincerely.
Sakia cries for the first time in Fattan's arms. The woman was crying. It is not love that makes him strong but trouble after problem that makes him strong. And should she be happy when she hears the expression of her husband's heart?
"Sir Fattan, Kia doesn't want to stay here. Kia wants to live in a boutique" Sakia said as she pleased.
Fattan broke her arms and then held both of his wife's shoulders. "Did anyone hurt you?" ask Fattan.
"Yes. Someone hurt me. Brother's attitude, and Sabila's. The two of you, the two-faced couple" Sakia sobbed.
Fattan shed tears. The love that he began to realize made the man could not bear to watch the woman he loved cry. "I'm sorry Brother Sakia" said Fattan and hugged his wife again.
"If you want us to move, then let's get ready. We either live in a boutique or we look for a rental close to a boutique" Fattan said.
For the first time anyone complied with Sakia's wishes without asking much. But that doesn't mean she's starting to fall in love with her husband. "We call Papa first" Sakia said.
Fattan broke her arms and wiped away her tears. "Papa will understand" said Fattan leading his wife to sit on the lip of the bed.

At 15:02 PM
Sakia and Fattan just finished cleaning the shophouse assisted by Nurin and Nada. The couple rented a two-story minimalist shophouse in front of Sakia Fashion Boutique. There are two rooms on the second floor and there is a sofa and a television and a balcony. Next to the shophouse was a staircase directly connected to the second floor.
Fattan, Sakia, Nurin and Nada sat on the sofa in the shophouse. "Alhamdulilah" Sakia gave thanks while leaning her head on the sofa.
"Nurin, Nada, thank you, Deck. Sorry, Kak Kia is troubling you again" said Sakia felt haru with the attitude of Nurin and Nada who are always ready to stand by when their energy is needed.
"Together Kia" Nurin smiled back.
"You guys rest here. And this wallet will order food or cake that you want to eat. Fattan's sister wants to take a shower first" Fattan said, handing her purse to Sakia.
"Yes, Brother" Sakia replied.
After Fattan goes to the room, Nada and Nurin approach Sakia. "Sister, right on the first floor is not inhabited, how about we move here only. The floor is more spacious than in the boutique" Nada suggested.
"May, tomorrow we will talk to Brother Alif" Sakia smiled back.
...---...
Not felt, the time has shown at eight o'clock at night. Sakia stood on the balcony looking down. Look at cars and motorcycles passing by on the highway.
"Alhamdulilah O Allah. Even if I don't have a college degree, but I can make halal money. Thank you God. Thank you for the sustenance you gave me and my three servants" said Sakia.
"Kia" call Fattan. The man approached his wife on the balcony. "Are you happy?" ask Fattan.
"Alhamdulilah, Brother" Sakia smiled back.
"I'm glad to see you smiling, my wife. I promise, I'll find out why Sabila did this to you" Inner Fattan.

I think the stroke was not, but because of radiation hp. From then on, I started limiting the time I held my phone. That's why, I just read the comments and focus on typing.
