Replacement Ribs

54. Ultimatums

Kirana was in her room. The food delivered by Bi Elis had not been touched.

His pain is now more than when Tristan kicked him out. He was already tossed as high as possible because of the change in attitude of Tristan, but when he fell was so sick.

When her heart and body were fully surrendered to her husband, and the seed of the man had grown in her womb, but the separation was approaching. Kirana does not have the flexibility to share a husband. It was enough that he felt he had to share his heart with the dead Elita. But if you have to share it for another woman again, Kirana is not sure she will be able to.

"Wi!" Her mother-in-law's voice called out with a knock on the door.

Kirana shifted her body down from the bed, then dragged a step to open the door.

"Mom can come in?"

Kitana nodded. "Please, Ma."

Kirana's back in bed. Sitting leaned in the company of her mother-in-law.

"They have an affair, Ma," Kirana said half muttered after a moment of silence.

The news is certainly not a surprise for Mrs Ratih. Because she caught Silvia at Tristan's house. All this time everything was deliberately kept tightly. As with Mentari, he did not want to lose Kirana. Sounds selfish indeed.

"Silvia is pregnant with Mas Tristan's child" Kirana said.

Madam Ratih could only fall silent again. All of those possibilities could have happened. But if you have to admit the child from the results of the dark relationship, he will not be willing.

"Then how are you?" ask Bu Ratih then.

Kirana shakes. At the moment he felt an overwhelming sense of anxiety. Divorce claims may continue. But what about Mentari? If possible, he will take Mentari with him to his hometown. Even if that sounds impossible. Given that he has no blood relation with the princess.

The sad face of Bu Ratih further confused Kirana's mind. That woman, why should be so fond of him that should be a consideration for Kirana.

Kirana rubbed her stomach. In five months, the baby will be born. It is not a problem for him to undergo pregnancy and childbirth without being accompanied by a husband. He was even able to support his own son. But he imagined if his son would demand the existence of his father, of course it would be more heart-wrenching.

"Mama apologizes for not being able to properly educate your child. So many times it makes you disappointed."

"Ma, it's not Mama's fault." Kirana was unable to bear to see the look of regret on her mother-in-law's face.

"Honestly, Mama is heavy if Mentari finally has to lose you. But Mama has no right to forbid you from making a choice."

The clear point that had been held by Kirana was sliding freely without being controlled anymore.

Mrs Ratih grabbed her daughter-in-law. Letting Kirana spill the weight of her life through the cries of tears.

"You know, your love is already so great for Tristan. But it was not able to make Tristan turn into a good husband. Mama's really sorry" said the woman. Kirana's cries were breaking even more.

That feeling, why must it grow so fast even Tristan himself who nurtured it. But it was the man who had suddenly exterminated her.

"Just ask, stay here until your child is born. Mama will be in charge of replacing your husband. If you are not willing to see his face, Mama will guarantee that Tristan can not set foot in this house again" said Bu Ratih firmly

Now Kirana knows, from whom the character of Tristan declined. All the character of her mother-in-law is duplicated in the son. Stubborn, firm, yet can also be gentle in place. It's just that its hard nature decreases more so that it dominates more.

Plaque!

Tristan slammed the brown envelope onto the table in front of Silvia who was sitting on the sofa. The man even entered without permission into the apartment that Silvia inhabited.

"What does this mean?!" ask her with a sharp look at Silvia.

"What the hell are you, Mas? Coming mad?" sahut Silvia with a calm attitude despite seeing the face of Tristan who was very unfriendly.

"Not pretend you don't know! What exactly do you want from me?"

"Gosh, Mas. You're that smart. You can't understand that I want you!"

Tristan pulled the corner of her lips. "You really can't be loved. I give you one time 24 hours to vacate this apartment. I'll show you where you're from."

Silvia. "What the fuck are you, Mom? You said yourself that I could stay in this apartment at any time. Why are you kicking me out now? I'm pregnant with your child, Mas."

"Of course you don't remember, Mom. Because you did it drunk!'

"Quench! Looks like I have to tell you, if I put a cctv in every corner of the house. Don't try to play with me, Silvia. You know how I am. No matter who you are, I will make you suffer if you still intend to destroy my family."

Silvia was stunned. Tristan's story ruined all his plans. The cctv? He didn't even see it in Tristan's guest room.

"Remember. Empty this apartment immediately!" Tristan warns Silvia, who is still in her place.

Brak!

The sound of the door slam made Silvia tiptoe.

Tristan ruffled his hair rough. The shadow of Elita lying in the ICU room swirled in her mind .

.

"Sorry, El! I can't keep that promise. Smile Mentari is more than anything to me." The man muttered.

The car he was driving drove aimlessly. Home is no longer a place to go, but he also does not know where to go. For almost an hour he was just driving down the street.

His left hand put on the earphones. Then scroll through his phone screen looking for someone's contact number.

"Gue wait in the usual place" he told someone he was in contact with. Close the call without waiting for a response from the recipient.

Tristan stops the car at a night entertainment venue. Waiting for Daniel, whose nose was not visible. Even until a long wait, his friend did not appear.

He also pulled the door handle and closed it back violently to cause a loud pounding sound.

Tristan's presence in that place has always been the center of attention of women club workers. Because he occasionally comes with Daniel who likes to tease them. But when Tristan came alone, no one dared to come closer.

One shot of the bartender's concoction was seen only by Tristan. Kirana's face seemed to be dancing on the golden liquid. He gulped it down so that he was not left. One glass, two glasses until Tristan can no longer count them. The man was no longer able to support his head.

Until he felt a pat on his shoulder. Tristan tried to open her eyes which felt very heavy.

"Sorry, I just came!" said Daniel.

"Where are you, asshole!" sahut Tristan is upset.

"Regular. Same with Bianca."

Tristan also tried to straighten his back. Get up from the bar stool he was sitting in.

"Where are you going?" daniel asked to see Tristan staggering away.

"Back home!"

Daniel followed Tristan to the parking lot.

"Gue anterin, huh?"

"Gue can go home alone! Take care of that girl!" Tristan answered while opening the car door.

Brak! The back door was violently closed before Daniel again prevented it.

Letting Tristan drive himself drunk is not the right thing. But he lost quickly because Tristan had locked all the doors. Until he had to bang on the door for Tristan to reopen it.

But the man in the car drove his car out of the nightclub. Daniel rushed to his car. He escorts Tristan who drives without rules.

"Crazy!" he saw Tristan's car speeding ahead of another vehicle. Until several times the sound of a deafening horn from other riders.

Ciiit! Brak! Brak!

Daniel choked when he saw Tristan's car had stopped hitting the roadblock.
