The Sanctity of Tarnished Love

Trying to Solve the Mystery

"Darling! What are you doing?" tanya Dawn who suddenly stood behind Dusk.

Dusk gasped in surprise, she quickly turned off her phone, and turned to look at her husband.

"Eh Brother Dawn." said Dusk nervously.

"What are you doing?" asked Fajar as he stepped closer to Dusk, he remembered very well if his phone was lying just on the table.

"Tadi Nina called me, she took a weekend walk, but I haven't agreed to her invitation" replied Dusk lying. He glanced at Fajar's phone at a glance, and he breathed a sigh of relief because the phone was dead.

"Mmm so." murmured Fajar as his hand was about to grab his phone.

"Back of Dawn, I'm hungry!" said Dusk as he moved from his seat.

"You hungry?" fajar asked while looking at his wife. And Dusk answered him with a nod. Dawn smiled, then she undoes her intention to take her phone.

"Let's have breakfast! I was cooking meat soto. There is not a single vegetable in the refrigerator" said Fajar while tidying up the twilight hair that is still messy.

"Come on!" answer Dusk with a smile.

"Don't let Dawn know that I've copied the number. If the time is right, I'll call that number. I want to make sure if he really is Adara, or not." said Dusk in his heart.

Then the two of them stepped together towards the dining table. They sit facing each other. Dusk smiled widely as the distinctive aroma of soto gushed into his nose. Without being asked her stomach started to rumble.

The sun sat in its place. As for Dawn, he took rice, as well as side dishes for Dusk. Not to forget he also prepared a glass of hot chocolate, his favorite drink of Dusk.

Dusk stared fixedly at Dawn, he observed his every move. His gentle treatment, and his attention was enough to flatter Dusk. It's just that when you remember the matter of the bed, again the unrest menggelut in his heart.

"Why baby?" asked Fajar as he stared at Dusk sitting silently while propping up his chin.

"Ehm it's okay, thank you Brother." replied Dusk with a smile.

"Let's eat!"

"Yes." Yeah."

Then they both started eating their food. Although the cuisine of Dawn is not as delicious as the cuisine of Dusk, but they devour it with a smile that continues to expand.

Half an hour later, they finished their breakfast. Dusk rose from his seat, and was about to bring his dirty dishes to the kitchen.

"Don't! Let me." said Fajar while holding his hand.

"It's okay, brother, I want to help you" said Dusk.

"Sit down, you're not well. Let me do this."

"But Brother."

"Already, stay there, and drink the chocolate" said Fajar while guiding Dusk to return to his seat.

"Alright." replied Dusk resigned.

Then Dawn piled up some dirty utensils, and brought them to the kitchen. Dusk stared at him while sipping his warm chocolate.

After finishing cleaning his food, Dawn again sat in front of Dusk. He sipped his half-living black coffee.

While they were talking over a drink together, suddenly there was the sound of footsteps from the living room. The sound of her shoes sounded quite loud. Dusk let out a long sigh, he sure must be his mother-in-law who came, because only young people who often went in and out of this apartment without permission.

And sure enough, the Dusk guess did not miss a single bit. As soon as he turned his head, it was clear that the figure of Bu Rani who was stepping closer to them. With its formal suit, which is combined with high hells in black. Bu Rani looks beautiful and fit, even though she has entered the age of 55.

"Morning." replied Bu Rani briefly.

"Alone Ma?" dawn asked while standing up, and then she hugged her mother at a glance.

"Yes, your father has an important meeting, so he can't come here." replied Ms. Rani while sitting next to Dawn.

"You why? Not pregnant is sick." asked Bu Rani in a cynical tone.

"May not, Dusk is sick. Yesterday Alvin took care of him, because I wasn't home. Don't talk about pregnancy, I'm the one who deliberately postponed it. I still want to live alone. Later when the time comes, Dusk must be pregnant, I must give a grandson to Mama." said Fajar while looking at his mother.

"Otherwise you wait, you and Dusk are both adults. You are also well established, there is no way your child will starve. Remember Dawn, you're 30, you want to have a child at what age?"

"I postponed it too not long. At most a year, or two years, is still quite young right." replied Fajar with a long sigh. Honestly, if it's been discussed about the child, his heart again tightened, and sick.

"As far as you go!" said Bu Rani while rolling her eyeballs in a careless manner.

Meanwhile Dusk just sat unmoved, while occasionally closing his eyes. He tried to hold a clear circle that had piled up in the corner of his eye. Talking about pregnancy, his heart seemed to be torn apart instantly. He had to think back about his marriage. A husband who never touched her. Either because they are not interested, or because there is a heart that is being guarded. Whatever the reason, both are equally painful.

"How are you doing?" asked Bu Rani while staring at Dusk.

Dusk lifted his face, and looked at his mother-in-law. He asked her without a smile, and with his hands folded on his chest. He didn't seem to come to see her.

"It's better Ma, just a little dizzy, and limp." replied Dusk while trying to smile. Although her in-laws never treated her well, Dusk always tried to respect her, and appreciate her.

Ms. Rani quietly did not answer, but she reached into her bag, and took something that looked like medicine. Ms. Rani put the thing on the table, which turned out to be medicine.

"This is a vitamin that has been recommended by great doctors. This is good for stamina to stay fit, and.this is also good for the womb" said Bu Rani while staring at Dusk.

"Who knows Dawn is just lying, and trying to make up for your shortcomings. Drink routinely so that your womb is fertile, and can have children." continued Bu Rani because Dusk is still silent.

"Ma already, that twilight can get pregnant, it's just that I postponed it. I don't want you to keep talking about this!" sahut Dawn with a slightly high voice.

"Ahh whatever, the important thing is to drink it. I bought it at a great price. Yes I'm gone first, you don't work, accompany your wife!" said Bu Rani while staring at Dawn, and then moved from her seat.

Then Ms. Rani stepped away leaving them. But just a few steps Bu Rani walked, he stopped his steps, and turned to look at Dusk and Dawn.

"The dawn this time I believe in your words, but I don't know for later. I'll wait for two years, you'll have to give me a grandchild!" said Bu Rani firmly. Then he continued his steps.

Dawn, and Dusk are silent to each other. They dissolve in their minds. They are caught in grief, and their own difficulties.

***

The hour hand is showing at 11:00 pm Tokyo time. Many people are already lost in dreamland. Rest the brain, as well as the body that is tired, because of the demands of work throughout the day.

But not for Ken, he ignored his tired body, or his tired brain. He did not care about the clock that kept turning ushering in the silence of the night. He was still sitting upright in his chair, he was dissolved in the white sheet of paper he had just received a few hours ago.

A sheet sent by his man in Singapore. According to the report, Fajar was in Singapore for one week. He lives in a luxurious apartment in the city center.

It is strategically located next to Palm Unnivercity, one of the most popular universities in the city. It is adjacent to the Delmond Office, the most influential company in Singapore. It is also close to Chan Hospital, the largest hospital in Singapore.

But not the location, or the luxury that makes Ken pensive long enough. Except the name of the owner of the apartment. In the sheet it is clearly written, that the apartment was in the name of Adara Victoria. But from the report that Ken received, Dawn was not seen with Adara. And from another investigation, some reported that the apartment was actually empty. Before Dawn lived there, no one occupied the apartment.

"Actually what's going on" said Ken, kneeling his temple. This mystery is quite confusing to his head.

Seriate....
