The next morning, Tari woke up when the sunlight hit her face. He was surprised after seeing the clock showing at 8 am.
He got up and cleaned the bed. Dari was late waking up remembering all night she cried over her husband's words. After the morning prayer, his eyes closed.
After the bed was neat, he saw the empty baby Cantika box. He thinks maybe Kevin took him out.
Dari rushed to take a shower and cleaned her body. After bathing, Dance then dressed and put on the hijab. He only wears powder and lipgloss when at home.
Then Tari walked out of the room towards the dining room. Arriving at the dining room, he saw no one there. Then Dari looked for bi Ina in the kitchen, but he did not find it either.
Dance then walked to the back garden, and in the can bi Ina was feeding her baby.
"It turns out bi Ina is here" said Tari when approaching bi ina.
"Mom's morning, sorry..Cantika wants to eat here ma'am." bi Ina replied.
"Ga pa-pa bi.oiya, where are you?" tanya Tari while sitting next to bi Ina.
"The father had already left, ma'am, finished bathing Cantika."
"Oh yeah? The one who bathed Cantika?" tanya Tari was surprised, because all this time Kevin never had time to take care of the baby.
"Yes mom, said my mom, sick and still sleeping."
"Thank God he still managed his son."in Tari was sad.
"What kind of pain does her eyes hurt?"ask bi Ina while looking at her employer's face.
"But headaches, maybe soy sauce." said Tari lied. He didn't want anyone to know about his fight with Kevin last night.
"Aunti continued to cook, let me bribe Cantika" said Tari with a smile towards the tiny baby in front of her.
Bi Ina went to the kitchen and left Tari and baby Cantika.
"Duh baby mama.the more gemesin aja." said Tari while feeding Cantika.
The baby just smiled as he chattered in his own language. It was as if he knew the sadness his mother felt. He tried to make his mother smile.
Sure enough, Tari began to smile seeing baby Cantika chattering and clapping.
After the food runs out, Tari then brings baby Cantika in and cleanses the baby's body from food scraps.
Then Tari carried her baby into the room. He then changed his Cantika clothes with better clothes. So did he, he intended to entertain himself with a walk to the mall with baby Cantika.
Dari has not been shopping for her baby. He just remembered Cantika clothes have begun to be small.
Then Tari also carried a beautiful baby Cantika with a cute hijab. They left the room and headed to the kitchen.
"Bi.I say goodbye to the mall first yes. Pakde Yono will take me. From shopping I might immediately pick up Dwi at school." said Tari.
"Yes ma'am..be careful on the road." bi Ina then drove Tari up to the car.
Pakde Yono then helped put the baby Cantika train into the car and drove his car when his employer had entered.
After an hour, finally the car carrying Tari and baby Cantika arrived at a famous mall in Jakarta. Dari then got off when Pakde Yono stopped his car in front of the mall door.
"Pakde.wait in the car. I didn't take long." said Tari as she got out of the car.
"Good ma'am." replied pakde Yono.
Then Tari put Cantika in her carriage and started pushing her as she entered the mall door.
Dance walking while pushing her baby carriage. Not a few people stop by just greeting when they see the baby padlocks on the train.
It turns out that not only Tari and her family are anxious with baby Cantika, but everyone saw her would be anxious to make.
Some time Dance walked, finally she arrived at a baby clothes boutique. He then went in and saw the baby's belongings on display.
Then Dance's gaze was fixed on the clothes of the hanging baby girl. He then chose the color, material and size of the baby Cantika.
After buying a lot of clothes for her baby, Tari walked out of the boutique.
But suddenly a man hit him, until his grocery bag fell to the floor.
"I'm sorry.sorry.I wasn't intentional." said the man.
"Jovan?" tegur Tari was shocked when she saw the man who hit her turned out to be Jovan.
"Dance...?" Jovan stops picking up Tari's grocery bag when he sees the woman he hit.
"Sorry Tari.I again chat ama Heni and do not see anyone in front of me. You're not pa-pa, are you?" ask Jovan while looking at Dance.
"Ga pa-pa kok." replied Tari with a smile and received all her shopping bags from Jovan.
"Hey.your baby is so funny. And re-engage..."Jovan bowed and looked at the face of baby Cantika who was smiling at him.
"You're the umpteenth person who says my baby's funny."
"Indeed funny and pretty. Much like his mother."goda Jovan.
Dance just smiled at Jovan's words.
"What are you doing at the mall? No errands?" tanya Tari while walking followed by Jovan beside her.
"Ga.actually I am making a covenant with Heni here. He said he was in the mall again." said Jovan.
"Ooh, uh..."
"There's a cafe.we're sitting there talking." take Jovan. He also obeyed Jovan's invitation because his stomach began to rebel asking to be filled. Since this morning, I have not eaten anything.
Then they ordered drinks and snacks, as they sat by the window.
"You're alone?" ask Jovan.
"Two Cantika." replied Tari smiling
"Yes, I mean both? Where's Kevin?" ask again.
"Kevin's working again, I'm shopping for Cantika's needs. All of you from here to pick up my other son from school." replied Tari.
As they were engrossed in chatting, suddenly a woman who was on the other side saw them.
Then the woman smiled with satisfaction after seeing the scene in front of her. Well, that woman is Heni.
"Sorry Mr. Kevin, we don't just have a meeting at the cafe" said Heni, pointing to the cafe across the street.
Kevin then looked at the cafe that was appointed by Heni, and how surprised he was when his gaze was fixed on the two people who were talking. He saw his wife's Dance chatting with the guy last night who made him jealous, Jovan.
How angry Kevin was at the sight. He did not stop thinking, it turns out his wife made an appointment with another man without his permission. And not usually also Dance out of the house without her permission.
Seeing Kevin's face tense with anger, Heni smiled with satisfaction. He did not expect, without having to draw up a plan turned out his plan went alone.
As Kevin is about to meet Tari and Jovan, he is suddenly arrested by Heni.
"Sir.don't think things first. Miss Tari can't be cheating. Although last night Jovan decided on me." said Heni lying down with a sad bow.
"What's? Jovan decided on you?" kevin asked in surprise.
"Yes sir, said Jovan he finally found the woman he used to love."Heni now pretended to cry.
As Kevin looked back at Dari and Jovan, he was again startled. He sees Jovan giving Dari a small box that he believes contains a ring.
Kevin was getting angry and decided to leave the mall.
"Cancel today's meeting. We go back to the office." Kevin ordered as he passed.
"Well sir.." said Heni with a satisfied smile.
Meanwhile, Tari is so happy to hear that Jovan finally intends to propose to Heni.
"The ring is very good."praise Dance when she saw the diamond ring.
"May Heni accept me."please Jovan.
"I'm sure Heni won't turn you down. Which woman could refuse you."
"You're the only woman who rejected me."
Dari is surprised to hear Jovan's words, he recalls the time Jovan tried to harass him and he broke off their relationship.
"I'm sorry, Tari.until now I'm so sorry that I hurt you" said Jovan sadly.
"I have long forgiven you. We're still friends now, right?"
"Yes.I said goodbye first. I'm going to school at noon my son." said Tari while getting up from her seat.
"Alright.be careful." said Jovan.
Then Tari walked out of the cafe and left Jovan.
.
.
Arriving at home, Tari then cleans the body of baby Cantika and replaces her clothes. He then gave milk until the baby fell asleep.
Then Dance cleansed herself and prayed. After that he went out of the room and approached Dwi who was waiting for him to have lunch.
"Kok has not eaten dear." said Tari when he saw Dwi just looking at the plate.
"Wait for me." she smiled.
Finally they also enjoy the food that has been prepared bi Ina with greed.
Wall clock shows at 10 p.m. Dance is anxious because until now Kevin has not come home. She wanted to contact her husband but was afraid that Kevin would not pick up the call.
After half an hour waiting in the living room, Tari decided to contact Kevin. But Kevin's phone is off, and makes Dari even more worried.
Usually if Kevin comes home late, he'll call Peter. But now Peter is enjoying his honeymoon. He then remembered Heni, Tari wanted to contact him but he did not know his phone number.
As she gets busy with her worries, Tari hears the fence opened by Pakde Yono. He walked out and saw who was coming.
After seeing the car that came was Kevin's car, she thanked him because her husband finally came home. Dance forward to welcome her husband. But how shocked he was when he saw a woman get off the steering wheel door, then opened the door beside him and looked into Kevin who looked drunk.
"Mas..why are you like this? Here let me take him." said Tari.
Rejected by Kevin.
"Don't touch me like a woman." Kevin said angrily
How shocked Dance was when her husband called himself a traitor.
"Heni.take me to that room and accompany me." Kevin said to Heni.
Well, the woman driving Kevin's car is Heni. And now Heni's taking Kevin to the couch in the living room. He couldn't carry Kevin with his small body.
"You'd better go home, Heni. Let Pakde Yono drive you." said Tari.
Before Heni answered the words of Dance, Kevin then held Heni's hand.
"Don't go, accompany me to bed. We're both victims of their affair." Kevin looked at Heni.
"What do you mean, Mom? Who's cheating?"tanya Dance curious.
"We saw you with Jovan in a cafe." said Heni with a face of his pretence.
"I'm not cheating on you. You're wrong."Dance asserted herself to Kevin.
"You'd better go Heni."command Dance.
Then Heni went away from leaving them. There was a sense of satisfaction in Heni's heart, she was sure that after leaving, Dari would quarrel with her husband. And Kevin's leaving Dance.
"Let's go to the room. Don't make a fuss here. Later Dwi will wake up." said Tari then took her husband who was unconscious to the room.
Once in the room, Tari then laid her husband's body in bed. With wet eyes, she took off her husband's shoes and clothes. Then Dance enveloped Kevin's sleeping body.
"Mas.why come like this. God will be angry mas..hiks..hiks.." muttered Dance while crying to see the state of her husband.
.
.
In the morning, Tari had been awake since dawn. He has taken care of baby Cantika and Dwi.
After handing baby Cantika to bi Ina, Tari went into the room with a glass of hot tea for Kevin.
He saw Kevin still asleep. Dari then decided to sit next to Kevin waiting until her husband woke up.
Not long after Kevin finally woke up, and saw Dari sitting next to him.
"Morning mas.."what a dance with a smile.
"Where's Heni?" asked Kevin who surprised Dance.
"Why are you looking for Heni? Last night I told her to go home." replied Tari sadly.
"Heni and I have the same fate.You have cheated on us."
"Mas..drink this first yes.trus new bath we talk well" said Tari and handed a glass of tea to Kevin.
But Kevin then pushed the glass until it spilled over the hand of Dance.
"Awww..hot." Dance voice in pain.
Kevin just looked and did not try to help his wife. In his heart he saw his wife in pain.
"Why don't you want to hear my explanation first. Why mas only allow what mas see..hiks...hiks.."asked Tari with tears.
"Why did I hear your lies. I only believe what I see with my own eyes."
"The mind is covered with jealousy. Me and Jovan have nothing to do. We happened to meet when I went to the mall to buy Cantika..hiks...hiks..."
"She happened to be in the mall to meet Heni who was said to be in the mall.hiks.." said Tari while crying.
Kevin just kept silent hearing Dance's words. For him everything he said was different from what he saw and what Heni heard.
"Trus for what did Jovan give you the ring? Are all the diamond rings I give you not enough?...HA...?"Kevin began to get angry.
He got up from the bed and faced Tari.
"Do you prefer a soldier to a contractor like me now...?"
"ANSWER.....!" kevin shouted to make Dari shocked.
"What now you doubt me? Has my attention and service been lacking?"
"You do feel like it's all lacking.it's up to you to think what about me."
"From the past it was not me who betrayed our marriage but.mas" said Tari in a firm tone.
Hearing Dance's words, Kevin suddenly slapped his wife's cheek.
Plaaac...
Dance only grimaced in pain after Kevin slapped her cheek. There are red hand marks that are clearly visible on the white cheeks of Dance. And there was even a drop of blood on the tip of Dance's lips.
Kevin was aware of what he was doing to his wife. He saw that Dari was holding only her cheek while holding back her cry.
"Thank you, this slap represents everything." Dance then went into the bathroom and locked herself in it.
While Kevin was silent stiffly looking at the hand used to slap his wife.
"What have I done."into Kevin while looking at his hand.
He sat down on the floor and began to cry regretting his actions. Suddenly he remembered all the events after the events of the past. When Tari and her children leave her, Tari lies in a coma.
Kevin knew he was being so selfish. He should not slap his wife who is not necessarily guilty. He was afraid that Dance would leave him alone.
Suddenly Kevin got up from his seat, and wiped away his tears. Then he went to the bathroom.
Kevin knocks on the bathroom door repeatedly, but hears no answer from Dari. He was worried about what Dance would do inside.
"Yank..open the door.." cried Kevin but Tari had not answered and even opened the door.
Long Kevin knocked on the bathroom door but still did not answer from the inside.
Then Kevin decided to hit it.
BRAAAK.....
