The Actor's Warm Bed

Chapter 3 Loss

Ms. Sonia was seen walking towards Stella who was still standing in front of the bathroom.

"Ma! I'm pregnant" Stella said with tears shed. His heart is so broken right now. Dilemma now haunts his feelings that are treated by problems that come in droves. I don't know what fate God has set for him at this time. For a moment, he felt very broken. Really, he really is wrong to choose which path. While her household was on the verge of collapse, a fetus was present in her womb.

"What fate is playing me, Hik" Stella cried even more, then scattered her embrace to the Mother.

Ms. Sonia sighed heavily at the fate of her son now, "Patience Son. We find the solution together. Mama knows this is hard for you. But believe me, God will not give trials that exceed the ability of his servants. Calm your heart! We should pray Zhuhur congregation, we pray and ask God for help in this matter" said Bu Sonia softly to her son Stella.

"Well ma, Stella take the whudu first" Reply Stella agreed by wiping her puffy face.

The Stella berwhudu. They also perform zhuhur prayer.

"O Allah, open upon me the door of my goodness and the strength of my faith. O Allah, O my Lord, grant me mercy from Your side and perfect me for righteous guidance in my affairs, O God. By saying your name, O Allah, I rely on you, there is no power or strength but only with your power and help, O Allah. Give the servant the best way out of this problem, and give the servant the strength to go through all the trials that you give. Amen." Stella's prayer in the heart with fullness to the jaunt.

Stella kisses the back of her mother's hand and rests at her feet.

"Ma! Forgive all the sins of Stella. The sin that has made a stain on our family Ma! Stella is sorry" Stella said, begging for forgiveness from her mother

"Wake Nak. Mama knows, you are a good and strong child, this ordeal will definitely pass by itself" said Ms. Sonia.

"I'm confused what to do. I promised to leave Cairo. I was also wrong, why did I trust Cairo just like that. But this baby, how could he possibly live without a father. And how will it be?"

Ms. Sonia again sighed heavily the umpteenth time after hearing her son's words, "Mama it's up to you to decide Stella. It's just that mama wants to remind you again, your position as a second wife is wrong. How can you be happy in the suffering of others? Mama can also feel how to be a wife left by her husband with his young wife, and it is not easy. It would be nice for us to put aside our selfishness, and this child's problem is that mom will take responsibility and raise him with you. Maybe it's his destiny not to be with his father at this time" explained Ms. Sonia at length.

Stella remained silent, then a second later she nodded in agreement.

"Alright Ma. We're getting out of here as soon as we can. And go as far as possible until I no longer see the existence of Cairo mas" Stella said with determination. His decision to leave this time seemed to have settled. With the support of the mother on her side, a little makes Stella a little relieved, at least there is still her mother who accompanies her through all this.

Stella packing the potluck into the suitcase. Even the Cairo purchase items he lived there. Including the wedding ring he also left on his bedside nightstand.

"Bik! I'm taking this house! If Cairo's gone home and she asks where I am, say aunt doesn't know anything. Thank you for helping me all this time. I'm dropping in Cairo" Stella said goodbye. The two women hugged each other to release the sadness of Stella's departure.

"Be careful Non. Bibik will miss Miss" replied Inem, who was already crying.

Stella just nodded in response. Then he left with his big suitcase into an online taxi car that he had ordered before.

Stella looked at the house she left with a heavy heart. But he had to do it for the good of him and his son.

After a few days later.

Bella is seen standing on the balcony terrace of her home, someone calling her at this time.

"good. Make sure the woman will never return to the house. And remember, throw all that cheap lady stuff out of that house" said Bella who spoke to someone behind her phone.

Bella ended the phone, then smiled happily there.

"Finally the cheap lady left as well. And I will not let anyone take Cairo from me" muttered Bella with a sly smile.

While elsewhere. A luxury car stopped in front of a multi-storey house with its minimalist interior. Her face looks like she walked in with a bouquet of white roses in her hand.

"Darling! I came home" cried Cairo who was already inside the house.

"Where are you?" Cairo shouted again when it did not get an answer. The house also looks very quiet, even Bik Inem who is a domestic assistant was not in place.

Cairo kept looking all over the place, but no one was there. Then he went to their room, he thought his wife Stella was in the room.

"I'm glad I'm home" cried Cairo again. But immediately he fell silent again, when he did not get anyone there.

Cairo began to get frustrated, then walked in and sat on her bed.

"I told you I was going home today. Why isn't Stella around?" Mumbled Cairo who continued to feel annoyed because of this. Though he had prepared a gift for his wife, but he did not expect to get a moment like this.

Cairo's eyes immediately turned to a wedding ring lying on the nightstand.

"Why is it here?" Cairo asked in surprise to himself.

It made Cairo feel that something was wrong. Soon he opened the closet, and sure enough, none of Stella's stuff wasn't there. Cairo realizes that Stella has escaped.

Soon Cairo called Stella's number. But the number he was aiming for could not take a call from him.

"Damn it, why the number is off" Cairo murmured angrily.

Cairo also switched to calling her mother-in-law and connect, which made Cairo a little relieved because she could ask where Stella was.

"Hallo!"

"Hallo Buk's. Is Stella there? She wasn't home and her belongings weren't there either" Cairo said, sounding very worried by her mother-in-law.

"No Son. Stella's not coming home. Don't you know where he's going?" Ask Buk Sonia back. Actually, Stella is with him at this time, but he deliberately lied so that his daughter-in-law could not find his son Stella. Because he did not want Cairo to hurt his son's feelings any more.

"I just got back from outside Buk. Stella hasn't called me in days either, so I don't know where she's going" Cairo replied.

"Alright Buk. I'll find Stella first, if Stella's ever coming home mommy call me right away" Cairo continued.

"Good kid. I'll call you later if Stella comes home"

"Good Buk. Thanks, I hung up. Assalamualaikum" Cairo ended talks and switched off its phone. He looked dazed and very worried about Stella. While Stella du elsewhere cried sobbing hearing her husband's voice from behind her mother's phone. Stella loved Cairo so much, but the harsh reality was too painful that Stella would rather leave Cairo.

Meanwhile. Cairo comes out of the room and looking for Bik Inem's whereabouts, thinking that Bik Inem knows about Stella's departure.

After descending the stairs, Cairo accidentally saw Bik Inem coming out of the maid's room and Cairo's face immediately shriveled in wonder to see the maid carrying a large bag in her hand. He also accelerated his pace and immediately approached the Inem bik.

"Bik! Where you going?" Ask Cairo astonished. His eyes were fixed on the bag that Bik Inem was carrying.

"I want to stop working here, sir. I want to go home" he replied trembling. Even Bik Inem did not dare to look Cairo in the eye. This made Cairo suspicious.

"But why? Why is this sudden?" Ask Cairo again full of investigation.

"Anu sir. I-I just want to go home" she replied nervously.

"From Bik's. Auntie know why Stella left? And why did he leave the house?" Ask Cairo in full detail.

Bik Inem looks agitated, "Sa-I don't know anything sir. Yesterday Miss Stella left home not to say anything to me" she replied with a bowed face and did not dare to look at her master.

"It's impossible that aunt didn't know about Stella's leaving. Aunt lied, right?" Cairo was already feeling very angry. His head even wanted to break because of it.

Bik Inem looked terrified at the anger of his master, "I go first Sir!" Pamit Bik Inem fast. He did not want to linger there, because he was very afraid if the Elder was introgating him in more detail.

"Wait Bik!" Prevent Cairo with its cold tone.

"Tell me the truth, or I put Bik Inem in jail for hiding the truth" Cairo threatened in a high voice. The more urgent Bik Inem.

Bik Inem trembled even more, then knelt down pleading before Kaieo, "Sorry sir. Don't throw me in jail. Miss Stella left with the man sir. He didn't say where he was going. He left with his new girlfriend" Bik Inem said quickly with his eyes closed. It was difficult for him to say all this, but how else, Cairo was too urgent, especially other things that had also threatened his security. Bik Inem's thoughts again mill around, considering the events of a few hours ago, when he was threatened by Bella before the arrival of Cairo. Bella had also threatened herself to tell this lie. Because now his favorite grandson is still in Bella's hands. And Inem did not want to take the risk even though he had to lie to Cairo who had always been good to him. His heart was so sick to tell this lie, in his heart, he apologized to cairo and Stella.

"I'm sorry, sir. I'm sorry non. Bibik was forced to say this all" Inner Bik Inem felt guilty.
