Abi, Eros, and Pak Manto arrive at one of the inns in Bandung. Abi immediately asks Eros to contact Reno. He wants to meet tonight. Don't want to procrastinate.


"Mba, we have ordered 2 rooms___" Eros has not yet continued, Abi cut his words.


"Ros, we stay in one room only. Mr. Manto, I, same you." Abi said firmly.


"Seriously Sir? One room? I snore when I sleep. Hehe..." Eros said with the grin of his horse.


"Udah, pesen cepet. I'm going to the toilet first." Abi Say.


Eros canceled the previous room he had booked. Then replace it with a large room for 3 people.


Before long, Abi, Eros, and Pak Manto arrived on the 5th floor in a fairly large room. They occupy their own goods.


Abi gives Eros a break. Abi asks Eros to arrange a meeting schedule after dzuhur.


Abi picks up his phone in his pocket and immediately calls Anna. But for a long time there was no answer.


The third time Abi called, Anna answered.


"Assalamualaikum, Mas Abi." Greet Anna with her soft voice.


"Waalaikumsalam, my darling." Abi said. That was heard by Eros and Mr. Manto to make them shudder in horror.


"Haha... Has Abi reached Bandung?" Asked Anna who while tidying up the accumulated report card.


"Yes, deck. Just entered a hotel room. Sleeping three of them. Mas Abi, Mr. Manto, same Eros." Evidently.


"Well, what's the three tumbens? Usually Mas Abi wants to be in the room alone?" Anna asked who was astonished by her husband's attitude.


"Sir Abi or Miss Anna..." Eros said from behind Abi's phone with a sound made potent.


"Haha... Ros, you're tuh. Joking around the Boss in your gorok." Anna said with her laugh.


"What the hell. It's there." Abi Ketus to Eros. Eros just laughed and shuddered away from Abi.


"Mas. Good dong dear, speak." Anna reminded Abi.


"The frost is a whim, deck." Abi said with a grumble.


"Haha... Mas Abi, Mas Abi. Have you eaten yet?" Ask Anna.


"Yet. It's just coming down. Nyari eat." Abi said.


"Ohh. Have a nice lunch, honey." Said Anna.


"Thank you dear. I'll call you again, yeah." Abi said.


"Okay. Assalamualaikum Mas Abi." Said Anna.


"Waalaikumsalam, deck." Abi said as he hung up the conversation on the phone with Anna.


Abi immediately went downstairs for lunch and preparation for his meeting.


"Hi, Abi." Sapa Maya's. The woman who said she loved Abi.


"Oh, hi." Abi spoke briefly without seeing Maya.


"You had lunch by yourself? I'm with you, aren't I?" Maya asked in her flirtatious voice.


"No. Thank ye. I have ordered this table for 3 people." Abi said with a sharp.


"Abimanyu, why the hell are you now so sniffed with me. I just meant well." Maya said in her high tone.


"I miss you, Abi..." Maya said as she approached and held Abi's hand which was patted rough by Abi.


"sorry. I've married." Abi said with a sharp look at Maya.


"What's so great about your wife? He's just a teacher who can't do anything. He's got what? Until you bend your knees like this Abhimanyu?" Maya said so sharply.


At that time Eros and Mr. Manto came to enter the dining table with food that he took at the buffet table.


Abi, regardless of Maya immediately ate with Eros and Pak Manto. Abi did not flinch at all. Whatever Maya says, she's silent.


Because Abi knew the more he served, the more Maya became. Because Maya is currently in need of Abi's attention. And Abi? Not at all.


Abi, Eros, and Mr. Manto immediately went up to the 5th floor and prepared meeting materials. Mr. Manto helped bring Abi's laptop.


Finally the meeting started. They'll start meeting in the morning again. At night, Abi did not want to leave the room at all.


"Sir, come on sir. Look at those lanterns outside." Bumpuk Eros and Pak Manto. Lazily, Abi finally obeyed them.


Abi, Eros, and Mr. Manto are delighted to come and see the beautiful lanterns lined up in the hotel garden.


"Hi, Abi." Maya said that out of nowhere she reappeared.


"Waduh, Mr. Manto. This is exactly what Abi said. Bu Maya deketin. We'll go back to the room again, will we?" Ask Eros to Mr. Manto.


"Yes, Mas Eros. Than Mr. Abi relapsed later in his illness. The message of Ms. Anna is important Mr. Abi's trauma was not revealed. Anna doesn't have anything to do with it." Said Mr. Manto who was a bit worried.


"Well.yes. I almost forgot about Mr. Abi's trauma. Come on, we're samperin." Eros said that immediately approached Abi.


"Abi. Can't you just leave that woman and come back to me?" Maya said with a staggering body.


Maya drunk. The smell of alcohol stings through Abi's nose. Abi's body started to shake. However, he was resistant. He's moving backwards, but...


Chhuup...


One kiss landed on Abi's lips. Abi's reflexes pushed Maya away until she fell on the ground.


"Sir Abi!" Shouted Eros from afar.


"Sir, are you okay?" Tanya Eros gasps.


"I'm back in the room." Abi said with a heavy voice and clenched his palms to show how strong his knuckles were. Abi tightened his jaw to hold back the anger.


Mr. Manto, knowing that his boss was furious, retreated, giving Abi room to move.


"Eros, can we meet tonight? So that tomorrow morning, it's all over." Asked Abi who was still with a flushed face held back the anger.


"Try me to contact our client sir. Let's have a meeting tonight." Said Eros who started opening his phone and contacted his client.


"Abuoyu!" Call Maya who approaches Abi with her staggering body.


Abi manages to evade and leaves from Maya.


Right now all Abi has in mind is Anna. He betrayed his wife. Maya kisses Abi's lips and pulsates deep.


Abi entered the bathroom, washed his face and washed his lips. He felt so guilty about Anna.


What he had to explain to Anna. How could he betray his wife. Abi is so furious with Maya and cursed her who can't take care of herself.


Until Eros knocks on the bathroom door, Abi starts to open it.


"Sir Abi, we can meet tonight. Tomorrow morning we can go home. Coincidentally our client also has to fly to New York tomorrow morning. So let's have a meeting tonight. How's Sir?" Ask Eros.


"Prepare everything. We're meeting now." Abi said firmly.


The meeting went well. The client entrusts everything to the Abi company.


At the meeting, Eros gets a call from Anna. Because Anna several times contacted Abi not appointed.


"Sir Abi, Miss Anna called me. He said he called my father but he wasn't picked up." Eros told Abi.


"OKs. Thanks for the infonya Eros. I'll be right back. You guys go to the room first." Said Abi who went away from Eros and Mr. Manto.


"Assalamualaikum Yes..." Greet Anna with her soft voice.


"Waalaikumsalam, deck." Abi replied with a voice made as loud as possible.


*****


Anna was going to open it with Abi. However, outside the envelope it says "strengthen your heart, Anna." Anna finally opened the chocolate envelope.


How surprised Anna who saw the photos of Abi was hugging friendly with other women. Who would it be if it wasn't Maya.


Until the photo that makes his heart more sliced. Photo Abi kissing the woman. Broke was crying Anna. His heart is so sick.


After crying satisfied, Anna saw the photos back. He could not believe the photos sent. Because he knows the character of Abi.


Until the ringing of Anna's phone reads on the screen of her phone "My Husband".


*****


Abi was preparing early in the morning after dawn he invited Eros and Pak Manto immediately back to Jakarta.


Abi's heart was not calm. He thought of Anna. If she was a girl, she would probably cry. Maya can no longer be tolerated Abi thought.


Along the way, Abi didn't say much. It speaks only a thousand languages. Abi misses Anna so much.


Abi asks Mr. Manto to take Eros first, just back home.


After his long journey. Abi arrived home.


"Assalamot." Sapa Abi's.


"Vaalaikumsalam. Oh, my, how come home? Not tomorrow until his house? How come you're not talking about Anna?" Anna asked with a few questions.


"Yes, I've been hunting kangen with you. So just go straight home. Without ngabarin. Sorry yeah..." Abi said, hugging Anna. However, Anna moved back.


"Yaudah, I clean up first. Anna is ready to eat first." Anna said with a smile that seemed happy.


Abi is confused by Anna's attitude. Anna avoided Abi all day. Abi wanted to talk to Anna after finishing her work.


Abi went into his study. He saw a brown envelope perched on his desk. He opened the brown envelope because it said, "strengthen your heart, Anna."


Abi was surprised not to play. He saw the pictures with Maya. It's all a trap.


"Mas, dinner's ready. Eat first, yuk." Get Anna to stand at the door of Abi's study.


Because there was no answer from Abi. Anna approached Abi.


"Mas Abi's..." Call him in a soft voice.


"Sir, why don't you tell me about this as Mas Abi?" Abi asked with a fixed look on Anna's face.


Anna saw that the chocolate envelope was open. Abi has seen the contents.


"When did this pack get to you, deck?" Ask Abi.


"Yes Overnight. Time before Mas Abi called Anna." He said by holding back his tears.


"Geek, why don't you tell Mas Abi?" Abi asked with Anna's hand.


"Daddy, I don't do anything like that at all. You know that, right?" Abi said in his soft voice.


"Yes, Mas. Anna knows. Let Anna herself go. Don't discuss it first. Dinner's Anna's ready." Anna said by removing Abi's grip and moving away from Abi's room.


"Sir, sorry Mas Abi." Said it with a hoarse voice. It's so ruined. Seeing Anna dodge him like this.


"Anna is sorry. But Anna needs time to be alone. Sorry Anna Mas. We have to be a distance first." Said Anna who immediately stepped her feet running out.


He got into an online vehicle that had been booked since. Anna walked away from Abi.


He knows his actions are childish. But Anna needs space to reorganize her heart.


Anna needed time to look back at her husband without even passing the picture. His heart was sliced, broken to pieces. It hurts to see those photos.


Abi did not stay silent. He's tracking Anna's whereabouts. Abi saw the GPS was pointing at the train station.


Abi tracks down from the necklace he gave to Anna while in Turkey. Seeing some things that could hurt Anna. Abi begins to control Anna's whereabouts.


Abi's not after Anna. Because he knew, Anna needed space to rearrange her heart. Abi knows Anna must have come back to him.


*****


Yogyakarta


A week later


Anna went into the hotel room and laid herself on the bed. After the break, Anna went out for a walk to breathe the fresh air of Yogya.


I don't know why Anna likes this city. A city that is always interesting to visit. The city made him feel comfortable.


Anna covered a stopover at a diner. He felt his stomach worms would wriggle out if not fed.


Anna ate it well. When looking at the menu gudeg with crackle, immediately his tears flowed.


"Mas Abi's... Anna misses..." The sound of his sobbing was heard by a man dressed in all black.


After eating, Anna wants to go back to the hotel. However, he traced a rather dark path.


His heart began to calm down, as he turned his body there were already 3 people who confronted Anna.


Anna was forcibly removed by these men. Anna asked for help, to anyone who heard, but there was a relief movement.


"GET MY WIFE OFF !!!" Shouted Abi loudly and furiously.


Not staying silent, Abi threw his fist at the man who was holding Anna's arm until he fell down.


Baku hit that night so fierce. Abi's bodyguards came and immediately rounded up the men.


*****


The flashback


They are Maya's men who want to harm Anna. Abi did not just stay silent when he learned of Anna's whereabouts.


He sent his bodyguards to keep Anna at a distance. Afterwards, Abi left for Yogya by plane.


The man dressed in all black sitting not far from Anna was Abi. Abi heard all the sobs of Anna that even made Abi shed tears.


Abi follows Anna from behind when she returns home from the diner. However, he loses track of Anna by checking her phone with a message from Eros.


Who told me Anna was in danger. Reno tells Eros that Maya is going to kidnap Anna. Abi was surprised.


He immediately contacted all his guards who were in Yogya to find Anna. Abi continued to follow the path Anna had walked. He checked Anna's location via GPS on her phone.


Until Abi found Anna in a small alley that was struggling from the grasp of 3 large-bodied men. When he saw it, Abi immediately raised his fist.


Flashback off


Abi held Anna in shock and lost consciousness. He took her to the hotel he had booked.


Abi laid Anna on the bed. He slept while hugging Anna. At night, Anna wakes up and sees her husband at her side.


Anna looked at Abi. The man who fought for him. A man who is willing to give up for his selfishness. Broke was crying Anna.


"Sir..." Call Abi by gently stroking Anna's hair.


"Mm.. hiks... hiks..."


"I love you..." Abi kissed Anna's head.


Anna inching tightly hugged Abi. Abi hugged Anna tightly. Much more tightly.
