Prison Wound
Five part



"We'll talk later, okay? You must be tired. We'll find the one immediately," Raditya asked as he broke his embrace to Riena.


A couple who are being hit by the complicated test of life soon leave the police station. Raditya steers his car to a favorite place of Riena when tired and bored with daily activities.


"I haven't been here in a long time, Ay. Honestly, I just remembered there was this place. Astaghfirullah, yesterday my mind went anywhere," said Riena while amazed to see the expanse of rice fields in front of him. A little far from the city center, the land was deliberately bought by Raditya and Riena indeed to plant rice that was cared for by others. The two only come occasionally to sit relaxing in a sturdy rice field center hut made from a blend of wood and bamboo with a straw roof.


Raditya led Riena down the narrow street to the hut in question. The hands of the two of them were tightly joined together. A smile expands with happy eyes adorning the face of Ayu Riena.


"Make a house in this area, yuk, Bee! Instead of us taking a vacation all the way to get some fresh air."


Riena simply replied with a smile. Then he took off the footwear he was wearing so he could climb up to the top of the hut.


"If I don't have a big responsibility to our employees and our families. I want to stop working, Bee. Not that I'm lazy. I'm just tired of the frenzy of business. After what we've been through, it makes me fully aware, that no matter how much money I have, I can't put a damper on my regrets. My money could have taken me to some of the most beautiful places in the world, but it wasn't enough to lead me to peace of heart."


"We'll stay here. Become a rice farmer and live in simplicity. But later, after my business and also your business is done. I have to attend one hearing. While you-," Riena did not continue her words.


"Of course I'll be with you, Bee. As much as possible I won't leave you alone. Unless there's a job that requires us to go to the office or get out of town, I'll definitely stay a long way from you."


Riena and Raditya were sitting on a whole yellow bamboo floor that was arranged so neatly. The backs of the two lean against each other as they choose the position of their backs. In each chat, occasionally they turn to each other to make sure that the interlocutor is still paying attention to what is being discussed.


"Yes, like I promised. I have re-accepted our relationship for many reasons. And the only real reason is because I love you, Ay."


Raditya instantly changed his position. So that makes Riena almost fall because the back that is used as her back suddenly changed position.


"Sorry, I'm too happy to hear what you're saying, Ay. The oath of what you said just now really makes me so fond of bangettttt." Raditya rubbed Riena's back as a form of regret and bad taste because of her carelessness.


"Sorry, keep going. The more you say sorry, it means that too often you make mistakes, too" Riena snorted as she held her seat. Now he chose to switch positions by leaning on a natural brown shiny wood board.


"Okay, no apologies after this. If I'm wrong, I'll fix it with action. You're gonna give me conditions, aren't you? Just say it, Bee. I will do everything I can and how I can. Just don't ask me to wake up a thousand temples or seven-color lakes here."


Riena moved her eyeballs lazily. Her lips were irritated to hear the words of the husband who was very original and ridiculous. Although her hands were already itching to pinch Raditya, Riena tried to restrain herself so that a serious atmosphere was awakened. He did not want Raditya to consider what was said later only a joke. Only Riena knows, behind Raditya's indifferent and assertive attitude, stored his humorous attitude beyond reason and tends to be absurd for others.


"Bee, I've come to Ramona. I've apologized to Reno and Rino.Is there anything lacking?"


"Why ask me, Ay. Do I know who the women you're sleeping with and playing with? If I knew, obviously I wouldn't want to be with you" Riena replied. Ketus and cynics.


Raditya scratched his head that was not itchy. It's nothing, of the many women who are close to him, not all he sleeps. If counted, not up to five fingers. It's just that Don Juan's stamp is already attached. So that any woman close to him, considered to have exchanged sweat and lenguhh with him.


"A lot of it, huh? Where to start apologizing. You bird, once able to fly, let him come here and there as well as his own."


Raditya swallowed his saliva with great difficulty. Yesterday the discussion about his past was even tougher. But the impression he caught was maturity. Different from now. He seemed to catch the jealousy in Riena. Raditya should be happy. Because throughout the marriage, his wife never showed that taste. Riena put so much trust in Raditya.


"I want you to really apologize. I'll come with you so there's no new slander. I don't want to, Mama Retno's worries to happen. It is enough for us to bear the sins of the folly of the past. Just give me a list of names and addresses, let me decide where we're going."


"Bee, is this really?" Raditya tried to convince himself.


"Of course it is. Very simple terms, right? There is no need to call the jinn to build 1000 temples or make lakes."


"Astaghfireullah, Bee. A thousand buildings in the present era can be done by paying thousands of contractors. But apologizing to an ex who's been out of touch for a long time, it's not easy. I don't keep their contacts, how do I find out where they are? I don't even remember much about them." Raditya's brain suddenly froze and could not think.


"Forgot a name, but you remember what it was like, right?" Riena asked again.


Raditya massaged the temple of his own head with a slightly strong pressure. Suddenly the earth seemed to be spinning faster than usual. If this is the case, various reasons or words must be in vain. The confidence of a jealous woman, capable of defeating a thousand truths-telak-unmatched.


"You have all night to remember anyone, the list of people you should apologize to, Ay. I don't take excuses. Tonight we will stay at Mr. Riswan's house. If you want to stay here do not gig, we have to learn to feel the atmosphere of the night here occasionally." Riena went down from the hut intending to go to the house of the person she called her name earlier. The person who had been taking care of the rice fields owned by the two of them.


There was no other choice for Raditya than to obey what the wife said. It was not that she was powerless to resist, but this drastic change in Riena's attitude really made her have to think long. This condition seems simple to others. Not so for Raditya.


After re-entering the car for ten minutes, Raditya and Riena arrive at a house with a large yard without a fence. The house was made of wood. Simple, but gives the impression of warm, clean and neat.


"Mom Riena? Radit sir? Well, why come do not tell us first. We thought you were going abroad because of the rape news yesterday. Patient, yes, Mom, sir. I just dreaded the news. Not so good as Miss Riena." Riswan's wife welcomed his innocence which made Raditya's heart increasingly deg-deg'an because of worry about Riena's reaction to hear the statement.
