Young Widow Pursued Om Bule
The struggle of Riani (part 2)



"Jonestly mom, son. What's going on between you and Jack? Why don't you ever see you guys calling each other again? You are secretly crying a lot. It's been over a month since Arma returned home. Don't you miss your son?" Sulastri who went into the room and saw his son who was folding clothes.


"The visa's not out yet, ma'am. I'll wait for that."


"That's easy then. Said you could go straight to England because you had a husband there."


Riani pretended to be busy putting clothes into the closet. "This is not the process that it used to be, ma'am."


"Don't lie, son. You didn't dare look at me because you lied, did you? Is it because you're afraid that you'll add to your burden of not telling me all this?"


Riani can't lie in front of her mother. He has been very depressed all this time. He needs the best friends. Dessy didn't dare Riani tell me.


"Me and Jack are getting a divorce, ma'am."


"Oh, because what?" sulastri asked and sat down next to her daughter.


Riani told me everything that happened. Starting from the story of his arrival to Surabaya who did not wait for Jack until all the scenarios from Dewi and Cecilia that they had to follow.


"Why don't you tell Jack that's not true?"


"Jack blocked my number, ma'am. I can't even communicate with Cassie. He also stopped me from coming to England. But I will try to come there. Whatever happens I must earn my right as a mother to meet my son. I was so sad to miss Reo. I don't want to tell this to mom and dad 'cause I'm afraid you're gonna get sick again."


Sulastri hugged her son. "Son, who's patient? The strong. This is a test you have to pass."


"I don't want to be a widow a second time, ma'am. But if this is my destiny, what should I do? What matters now is that I want to meet Reo first."


"Pray, son. Ask God for guidance. Ask God to be gentle on Jack's heart. I will pray for you and your children. May we all be given the best path of this Owner of Life."


Riani was crying on her mother's lap. "Help me, ma'am. I don't think I can handle all this."


"Keep your heart together, son. Your children are the source of your strength."


Riani nodded. It's very. Thankful to have such a wise and patient mother.

Daniel went to see Arma today. He just returned from England. He came to bring some gifts and also gave money to Riani's father and mother for other Arma needs.


"Ri, there's good news for you."


"What's that?" riani asked enthusiastically.


"Clark and I submitted a letter of appeal to the women's and child protection agencies. There are also several foundations that protect the rights of women in the UK. Your visa is granted. Tomorrow, you can go to the immigrant office to take care of your departure to England."


"really? Thank you, Daniel. You and Clark are gonna fight for me." Riani involuntarily hugged Daniel because she was feeling very happy. But then he let go of his embrace.


"sorry. I was too happy to hold you." said Riani among her tears.


"You deserve this opportunity because you are the best mother for Arma and Reo."


Riani closed her eyes. Dear reo, wait for mommy?

"Sir, Ms. Riani was monitored by CCTV just got out of the airport" Vigo reported. This afternoon Jack was at home.


"Which airport?"


"Manchester."


"He can come here? How come?"


"There must have been some interference, Mr. Clark. It was at the airport, too, Mr. Clark who picked her up."


"Tell the officer guarding the gate, don't open it!"


"But sir...."


"There's no but-fire of Vigo. Anyone who lets Riani in, will face me." Jack said as he slapped the table in front of him.


"Good, sir." Vigo leaves Jack's study.


The man closed the laptop in front of him. Mind dizzy. He rushes to Reo's room and asks his nanny to leave him and his own son.


Baby Reo seems to be sleeping. The child's face looks a little thin because he has been sick a lot lately. Reo also does not like formula milk. Jack had even consulted with a pediatrician and replaced some milk with a well-known brand, still Reo was not as enthusiastic as before in drinking milk. His age who has entered 6 months, should already be able to feed. But the boy did not want to.


Jack rubbed Reo's cheek with the back of his hand. Every time he tried to forgive Riani, the shadow of Riani's affair with Daniel always played in his eyes.


I don't know why Jack's so hard to think positive. His heart was always in pain and he could only get drunk or work endlessly to vent all his anger.

"Just get here, Clark. Please take my suitcase to the hotel. I don't know if Jack will let me in or not. To be sure, I don't want to involve you."


Clark looked at Riani. "I don't think I can let you be here alone."


"Go! I'll be fine. Jack's house is far from his neighbor. I want to scream I won't make the neighbors come here. If I'm done, I'll call you."


"All right."


Riani got down from Jack's car and stared at the gate that stood firm. He waved at Clark and immediately pressed the bell on the wall.


"Dwike, I'm going in."


"Sorry lady. Sir forbid you to enter."


"But I want to see my son."


Dwike looks bad. "Madam, we'll all be fired if we let the madam in."


"Jack....! Let me in....! I'm going to meet my son!" riani shouted towards the existing CCTV camera.


Dwike's phone rang. He was ordered to close the gate.


"I'm sorry, madam." Dwike closed the door with a face full of regret. After all Riani is a very good Mistress to everyone. He is very loyal and likes to give gifts to all workers.


"Fuck you Jack!" Riani was banging on the fence made of steel. "Open ...! Open door! I'm going to see my son."


2 Hours have passed....


Cassie who just came home from choir practice was surprised to see Riani who was in front of the fence.


"Mommy? Why not come in?" cassie asked as soon as she got out of the car.


"They won't let me in, Cassie. I miss Reo."


Cassie pressed the bell. Dwike's back out.


"Open the gate."


"But miss. Mr. Jack forbid the madam to enter!"


"I said open it...!" yell Cassie emotion.


Dwike opened the gate. Riani and Cassie get into the car and the car finally enters Jack's yard.


But by the time they were on the front porch, Leo and Lessy were already standing there.


"Sorry madam, Mr. Jack does not allow the madam to enter." said Leo with a sad face.


"Leo, open the door!" said Cassie who was holding Riani's hand.


"Miss, you're ordered to enter. But not with the lady


Riani." said Leo.


"What the fuck. Where's daddy?" ask Cassie.


"There's in his study."


"Mommy, wait a minute, okay?" Cassie goes inside immediately. He found his papa.


"Daddy, why don't you let mommy in?" ask Cassie.


"Get in your room and never get out before Daddy asks you to come out. Never interfere in the affairs of an adult."


"But mommy wants to meet Sen. Mommy must have missed Sen. How come daddy is so? What's wrong with meeting for a second?"


"Go to your room, Cassie!" snapped Jack with flaming eyes.


"But pity mommy, dad."


"Cassie!"


"Daddy is evil!" Cassie ran straight to her room.


Outside the door, Leo and Lessy are ordered to enter.


"I'm sorry, ma'am!" lessy said as she closed the door.


Riani tried to open the other door but everything was locked.


"Jack....! Open the door, let me meet my son! Open the.....!" riani shouted while banging on the door.


In her room baby Reo woke up and cried so loud that it was heard by Riani.


"My baby Reo's.....Reo....!" Riani fell down at the door.


Slowly the rain fell very hard to make Riani start cold. He called Jack to open the door. Riani's energy is running out. His voice began to fade. He who had not eaten anything since the plane finally lost all his strength. Riani collapsed.
