Since she was declared cured and recovered from a psychiatric disorder, Melani was allowed to return home. He will get road treatment and care by his own family. However, doctors advised Melani not to do strenuous activities first. He was advised not to enter the office first. The company itself tolerates Melani did not enter work while still sick. The office helped fund his treatment. As long as her mental condition is not stable, Melani is prohibited from approaching places that can cause her trauma in the rape event. He was also kept away from the phone planes and HP that became the source of terror against him!
During her stay at home Melani received close supervision from her family. They try to keep Melani from experiencing bad things. They even forbade Melani to go all the way from home. His family's treatment that was so protective of him made Melani somewhat restrained as well. He does not want to be treated like a child. But he also tried to understand, they did it based on great affection. They care about him a lot. Melani tries to take the positive side.
Meanwhile, Melani's colleagues in the office, one by one come to the house to see him. Melani was delighted and moved by the attention of her colleagues. Those who come are not only people who have been good to him, but also those who have been often antipathy like Tuti, Ida, and others. They give up hostility and hatred. They gave great sympathy and support to Melani. They also felt concerned and strongly condemned the act of the savage rapist. They promised to help Melani and the police to catch the perpetrator.
But what makes Melani feel touched and happy is the presence of Diah. His close friend who had a disagreement with him expressed his apology to Melani for her mistakes so far. Diah regrets having prejudiced Melani. He is aware of the nature of his selfishness and prejudices that have been misleading. He promised never to leave Melani. Nothing can ruin their friendship with sincerity. Melani was moved to hear Diah's statement.
Melani then asks the continuation of Diah's love relationship with Deni. With a grim face, Diah admitted that he had broken up with Deni. He doesn't want to talk about it anymore. He no longer cared about Deni. Melani was stunned to hear that. Suddenly he remembered the incident the other day during a visit to Deni's house. He had heard a lot about the depravity of Deni from his aides. Could it be that Diah knew that too? If so, Melani is happy. He did not want Diah to be hurt by men. Deni no longer deserves Diah!
Suddenly Melani expresses a desire to go back into the office. He felt tired of staying home every day without doing anything. He misses the work atmosphere at the office. But Diah held back that desire.
“Don't, Mel. You better rest first at home,” he said.
“I feel bad, Di. I haven't been at work for weeks. What about my job? Who is working on?” cetus Melani sad.
“Take it easy, Mel. Mr. Tejo has delegated your duties to me and mbak Tari. We can handle everything. Mr. Tejo once advised that you do not go to work before you are really healthy. He does not want you to be shocked and traumatized again if you are in the office!”
“No, On. I'm strong enough. I'm not traumatized by yesterday's incident.”.
“But, Mel?”
“Trust, In. I'm strong enough. I don't care about any of that anymore. I can already accept my stained state. Maybe this is my life. Now what I have in mind is the continuation of my family's life. If I stop working, who protects them. My mother and two sisters still need my strength. Let me be the one suffering from this situation, but not for the people I love!” firmly Melani.
Diah's feelings were moved by Melani's words. How strong and strong is Melani's soul. He was able to shake off all the bitterness and pain that was occupying his heart. Melani never thought about and selfish. He always thought about his family. He cares about the fate of those he loves. Very rarely are there women who have a steel soul like Melani. Diah himself could not imagine if this happened to him. She's not as strong and tough as Melani. He salutes the greatness of Melani's soul in wading through this hard life.
“Alright, Mel. Later I will convey this desire to Mr. Tejo,” said Diah finally fulfilled Melani's request.
“Thank you, Di!” Melani smiled happily. He hugged his best friend tightly. Unknowingly from both of his eyes flowed clear water.
Back the phone ringing. Melani hesitated. Maybe it was a call from Diah. Melani brushed off the shadow of trauma within her. He immediately got out of place, approaching the phone plane in the middle room. His hands were trembling when he was outstretched about to touch the phone. Cold sweat washed his face. For a moment he took a deep breath before then raising the phone.
“Halo..?” it was soft, almost like a murmur.
“Halo, Darling. You're at home. How you're doing. It's healthy enough, right.?”
The deg! Melani's heart seemed to be hit hard when she heard the voice of the man across there. The rapist's voice again! Melani was about to slam the phone, but she was arrested. While harboring the burning turmoil in his chest, Melani then berated the caller who had ruined his life.
“Botten men! *******! Want to call me more? Are you not satisfied to make my life ruined and messy?!” hiss Melani gusar.
“Don't get mad so dong, Darling. I never meant to ruin your life. I just want to make you feel happy. What about yesterday's incident? You enjoyed it, right? He he he..?” said the man chuckling.
“Fuck! You are a demon! You coward! You only dare to rape women in the dark. You are not manly! If you're a man, let's show you the truth? Don't just hide behind a mask!” melani is upset.
“I'm not a coward! I want to show you who I really am, as long as you want to comply with my wishes!”
“What do you want?”
“I know, you will definitely find it difficult to get a life companion after your virginity is gone. No man will accept a girl who has been tainted to be a wife. So I want you to accept me as..your husband!”
“What?! Nah! I would not be the wife of a depraved man like you. I'm not marrying you!”
“Then, don't expect you'll be able to know who I really am. I won't stop terrorizing you either. Even more than that, maybe I can shift the target to Nina, your teenage sister. I was curious to enjoy her body that was still ripe and virgin. He he he..!”
Melani's face gasped pale at the threat of the man who was about to divert the target on Nina, his sister. His body shook violently in anger. Anxiety and fear overshadowed his heart. He couldn't let that man ruin his sister's life!
