The Wife (The Persecuted Wife)

Meet Finola

"Father!" finola ran over.

Elno smiled, then grabbed Finola in her arms. Kara gave a smile when she saw Tedy coming. The last time Kara did was never in contact with the man again.

"When are you coming home?" ask Tedy.

"It's been a few days" replied Elno. "Come, Finola, greetings with Aunt Kara" said Elno who no longer called Kara as mama.

"Hello, Auntie," greeted Finola with a hand.

Kara greeted him and gave a kiss on the cheek. The four of them sat at the table that Elno had ordered earlier. He deliberately invites Kara to show him the relationship between her and Finola.

"How are you, Kara?" asked Tedy with a feeling of guilt still lingering in his mind.

"I'm good" Kara replied. "Do you get used to it?"

Tedy understood the meaning of Kara's question. He had tried to get Finola to call Elno uncle, but his only reluctant son especially Elno also agreed at that time. Elno and Finola are close even though they have separated.

"I've been trying to get used to it" said Tedy who carefully spoke because Finola was listening.

"Yes, no need to talk about it. It's just that I don't want her mother to bother us anymore" Kara said as she glanced at Elno sitting next to her.

"We only have family relationships. We took turns babysitting Finola. For Sari's personal life, I no longer interfere. I don't know anything about him anymore. I mean I don't want to know" said Tedy.

Elno chimed in, "I asked you to meet because ...."

"Finola. I will take care of him wholeheartedly with my partner" said Tedy who understood the direction of Elno's intentions especially Kara beside him. "I thank you, Elno. You've been giving Finola a lot of things."

When Tedy sees Kara with Elno, he understands why his best friend wants to meet her. Of course want to break a relationship that has been established for a long time. It is only natural that Kara does not want to build a close relationship with the destroyers of her household.

"Papa, doesn't this aunt like Finola?" tanyakanya.

"Papa hasn't seen Finola in a long time. Why isn't Dad with Mom?"

Next to Kara's eyebrows rose to hear the boy's sweet mouth. "Who taught you to talk like that?"

"Let me handle it" said Elno. While rubbing Finola's hair, Elno said, "Honey, Papa's only companion is Aunt Kara. You already know, don't you, that Tedy's dad is your dad."

"But mom said that Papa was Papa Finola."

"That's not my responsibility. I've given him an explanation. He's still a kid" said Tedy.

"Foster father, son," said Kara.

"Finola's confused. Why does Finola have so many Papa and Mama?" tanyakanya.

"It's good, right? So, there are many who love Finola," said Elno.

"But ...." Finola looked at Kara with fear. "This pretty aunt doesn't like Finola."

"No, Honey. Aunt Kara has a toothache, so it's hard to smile" Elno said.

"Finola, you can think of Papa Elno as your father. Aunty won't be angry, but Finola can't whine if Papa Elno doesn't come to see you. Papa is busy and he will have a new family" Kara said.

Elno smiled hearing that. "Yes, Finola. We could meet, but with Tedy's dad."

"Papa will often love Finola a gift, right?" tannya

"Sure," said Kara, "when you're birthday."
