"Mrs Ella. I assigned Mr. Bima to pick you up."
Ella stopped her steps hearing the voice of the driver who used to take Ella for one week if Bima was busy.
"alright. Thank you sir," Ella replied politely and directly opened the car door. The driver also got into the car after closing the back door.
Ella sat quietly on the passenger bench. But not with his heart and mind. He reopened the video Zico sent. Ella tried not to immediately suspect what her husband was doing. But the story of Bima's young ex makes Ella suspicious if the woman in the video is Margaretha.
Ella was sad again. He leaned his head and did not feel a single tear dripping from his eyelids. Memories of Bima's offer when asking her to marry.
"I'm stupid. Idiotically. I shouldn't be carried away by her sweet words. Where there are men in love only a few times to meet. Mas Bima married me just to achieve his goal. And proved that Aunt Linna did not dwell again to force Bima mas married the woman of his choice. Alright, Bima. I consider our marriage to be based on its original purpose. I hope your seed never grows in my womb" Ella's inner heart wiped away her tears.
Ella promised in her heart, she will live this marriage as they were meant to do. Married for a specific purpose. And now Ella is out of Zico. Ella is aware of the divorce with Zico due to the help of Bima who investigates the status of marriage with Zico. And Ella also promised to help Bima achieve her goal.
Ella wiped her tears back. She did not expect that life stories would always be in marriage with a man who did not love her sincerely.
"Mrs Ella. Excuse me. From earlier the madam's phone rang," said the driver. Ella jerks. For daydreaming he did not hear the sound of his cell phone ringing.
Ella unzipped the bag and grabbed her phone. He opened his phone and saw three missed calls. And those three missed calls from Bima.
Ella smiled cynically. He opens Bima's message stating he can't pick up Ella because there is important business.
Ella did not reply to the message. He put his phone back in his bag. He planned to reply to the message after arriving home and ask Kiki about the young woman. Deep in his heart. Ella hoped that if the young woman was not the woman who would threaten her household.
"We've reached Madam" said the driver, awakening Ella from her daydream. After saying thank you Ella got out of the car and stepped quickly into the house. He was impatient to meet with Kiki.
"Sore pa, Aunt afternoon," Ella said to Dad and Linna who were sitting together in the living room.
"Sore to Ella. My Bima. He didn't pick you up?" ask papa Yuda.
"No pa. Bima has business he said. So can't pick me up" Ella replied with a smile.
"Yes already. Bima is very busy today. Agenda with the lawyer I mentioned this morning. It was advanced so this afternoon. We spent a few hours just discussing. Maybe Bima is still in the office because her work was delayed because of our discussion earlier" said papa Yuda.
"So, all assets in the name of papa have moved the name to Bima pa?" asked Linna in surprise.
"Already," replied Papa Yuda briefly. Because it is so. His assets have all been changed in the name of Bima and just wait for a new certificate of ownership of the asset.
Linna hid his angry face. She had planned tonight to persuade her husband to give one asset to Kiki her biological daughter. But Linna was losing fast. But to protest also Linna did not dare anymore. Papa Yuda if you have decided something then the decision is absolutely inviolable.
"This house is pa?" asked Linna listlessly.
"So if this house is already in the name of Bima. Where do we live, pa?" linna asked again and tried to suppress the anger that filled her heart.
"What a strange question. Stay here. So where else to stay?.
"You have no plans to buy me a house and Kiki. Do I have to live hitchhiking in my stepson's house. What if Ella doesn't like me and persuades Bima to throw me out. Where should I stay?" ask Linna. The anger he suppressed earlier could no longer be hidden when he heard the words of papa Yuda who seemed indifferent.
"Bima will not drive you out if you do not do anything. So don't be prejudiced against my son. I don't think Ella's a bad woman who doesn't like you for no reason. If he doesn't like you. I think it is because of your attitude that does not like the presence in this house as Bima's wife," replied papa Yuda also angry. After saying that papa Yuda also got up from his seat and told Ella to immediately go up to the second floor.
In Ella's room, she threw her body into the bed. Sometimes see the Bima family. Ella did not think. Treasure is abundant but peace is not. Every gathering must lead to a fight even if it is a small quarrel.
Heard his phone ringing. Ella sat down and grabbed her bag which was also lying on the bed. Ella swiped the green icon on her phone a sign of receiving a video call from Bima.
"Where is mas?" ask Ella lazily. Bima's background is the same as in the video that Zico sent to her.
"In restaurant. You've been here a long time?" bima asked with a smile. Ella just nodded.
"That means you don't have dinner at home, do you?" ask Ella again.
"Yes, this is eating. It's okay, right?" bima replied while changing the front camera to the rear camera. Bima showed some untouched food on the table.
"It's okay, ma'am. Please enjoy. Who's the same there?" asked Ella out of curiosity. He wanted Bima to be honest about who was his friend at the restaurant. Bima did not highlight who was his friend at the restaurant. Bima hasn't answered Ella's question but the call is over.
Ella's getting suspicious. Especially since Bima talked to herself there are no frills dear as usual.
yaElla connects the story of papa Yuda earlier with the original purpose of their marriage. Ella is very sure if Bima is currently celebrating the happiness that has become the owner of assets papa Yuda with Margaretha the ex-boyfriend of her husband.
"You didn't answer my question. Without you answering I already know who you are in that restaurant."
Ella sends a message to Bima along with a video that Zico sends to her. Ella feels ready to part ways again if Bima returns to her ex. For Ella, this matter was resolved sooner rather than later, which would have been a waste of time, such as her marriage to Zico. Ella also did not intend to continue with the plans of those holding the reception. For Ella, the reception does not need to be held if later also separated.
After sending that message. Ella went into the bathroom to refresh herself.
While in the place where Bima is. Bima ruffled her hair after reading the message.
"I'm coming home now. There's urgent business. You guys finish the food," Bima said in a panic after repeatedly contacting Ella but did not answer.
Without hearing the interlocutor's answer. Bima half ran out of the restaurant.
