The Pearl of the Heart of Alvino

105

Rania, who has returned home, is very upset with her husband who severely restricts whatever he does. He really can't do anything. In fact, Alvino told Maya—anak Mbok Nah to work at his house, taking care of all the needs of Rania. For some reason, Alvino trusts Rania more with Maya than Felisa.

"Mrs, you want to eat something?" asked Maya while accompanying Rania who was sitting in the family room, waiting for her husband's return.

"No, May. Later if I want something, surely I will tell you," said Rania without taking her eyes off the television screen. Rania's phone suddenly rang. Rania's face looks crisp when she sees her husband's name on the screen, with a quick movement Rania immediately raised the call.

"Sister, I miss," said Rania spoiledly.

"I miss you too. Honey, I'm sorry I'm going home tonight."

"Why?" ask Rania disappointed.

"Today's Miss Katty's birthday and I promised to come. I'll come with Kenan." Alvino spoke very carefully as he knew the pregnant person was very sensitive.

"Are you going home very late?" Rania's voice sounded so slow.

"No, I try to get home by 9pm. Don't wait for me, I don't want you to stay up. Remember, Honey. There are lives you must take care of. I turn it off first. I love you."

Rania looked even more disappointed, not yet she finished talking the call had been cut off. When she tried to call again, her husband's mobile number could not be reached at all.

"Is there something, ma'am?" asked Maya when she saw Rania's face that looked so grim.

"Sir Al tonight came home late because he wanted to attend Miss Katty's birthday event," said Rania lethargic. Rania misses her husband's body odor. "Maya, will you buy me a sweet martabak of chocolate cheese?" rania Pinta.

"Good Mistress." After receiving money from Rania, Maya immediately went to buy martabak order pregnant woman.

"Where are you going, Fel?" ask Rania wonder.

"I'm going to go out for a minute, ma'am. There's very important business. Before nine I'm home, ma'am."

"Alright, be careful, Fel." Rania who was in a bad mood just assented without asking more details where Felisa was going.

Why don't I feel so good? Inner Rania. He moved into the room and laid his body on top of the bed. Rania tried to close her eyes, but every time her eyes closed, Alvino's reflection with Katty seemed to disturb her mind.

Rania turned her head towards the door when she heard the door being knocked from outside. Maya enters the room with a martabak pack in her hand. However, Rania no longer seemed to taste sweet food with a sprinkling of chocolate and cheese on it.

"Eat you, May. I'm not feeling good anymore" Rania said, handing the martabak back to Maya.

"But Nyonya—"

"If you don't want to, just take it to the back. Love anyone who wants to" Rania told me. Maya only obeyed her employer's orders without denying them in the least. He could see the mood of his young mistress who looked not okay. After Maya's departure, Rania's phone rang. There's a message coming in from an unknown number.

Come to XX hotel and see what your husband does.

Rania's forehead shriveled as she read the message. However, the moment she opened the image message from that number, Rania's body immediately stiffened. Even his phone fell to the floor. There is a picture of two people who were wrapped under a blanket without a single cloth.

"Where could Al be that evil to me. I have to make sure of that" Rania muttered. He immediately exited the room and left his cell phone lying on the floor just like that.
