After Darkness
Episode 3

"Sa..." Bu Yuni enters Elsa's room and finds her eldest daughter still struggling with her blanket. Dark circles are printed clearly under his eyes which indicates he is really tired and lack of sleep, his body also looks thinner.

"Eat first, son. From last night you have not eaten." said Bu Yuni while putting a plate containing rice complete with side dishes on the nightstand.

Elsa squirmed lazily and sat leaning against the head of the medium-sized bed.

"I'm not hungry, Ma. I'll eat when I'm hungry." said Elsa.

Now that she has been in her house for a week and Elsa has never been out of her house, Elsa is ashamed of her neighbors and friends because sometimes they still bring up the past.

"When do you want this to go on, Sa?" bu Yuni asked gently, she tidied up Elsa's messy hair. Bu Yuni grimaced about Elsa's change, but Elsa was very concerned about her appearance even though she was only in the house. Elsa always wears makeup and makes sure she always looks clean and beautiful, very different from this past week. Where Elsa even sometimes did not bathe for two days, did not eat unless she was dizzy from hunger, did not comb her hair despite shampooing.

Elsa's phone rang, Elsa glanced at her and the name Elnaz on the screen of her smartphone that has displayed a low battery notification. Elsa even forgot when the last time she charged her phone was.

"Your sister, raise the gih." said Ms. Isna but Elsa shook her head. Elnaz had contacted her many times but Elsa did not dare answer the call from her own younger sister.

"Yes, you eat yes. Mama's worried about you, Sa. Mama's afraid you'll get sick later." persuaded again that finally made Elsa nod her head. His hands stretched out to take the plate that was on the nightstand, his mother helped him.

"Eating a lot, you're getting thinner." said the Mama again, Elsa only responded with a faint smile.

Elsa does not know how she should start her life again, her life is already ruined when she leaves Arfan, her former fiance on their wedding day just for the sake of an opportunity to become an uncertain model. His life is further shattered when he decides to take a photo shoot wearing only a bikini, and his life is completely ruined when he enters into a relationship with Jimmy only to distract his feelings from Arfan.

....

Bu Anita looked at her husband, who used to be handsome and dashing despite his age and his hair was already bleached. Now, lying helplessly on his bed, on his side, as Robin had promised. His father no longer needs to work or do anything, just simply lie on the side of his wife who had been neglected.

"Like, Mommy? In the room every day, no need to get tired of working." said Bu Anita with a thin smile.

In the past, Ms. Anita was a beautiful and independent woman. She was also a model. Even after getting married and having children, Anita still carries out her profession as a model. But he did have abnormalities in his heart, what else when he found his beloved husband cheating with some very beautiful young women. Making his heart attack, he was in shock and depression, until he was sick until now.

While the husband, I don't know what Robin did a week ago, the doctor stated that Mr. Andrew had a stroke and might be temporarily paralyzed.

Since a week ago too, Mr. Andrew can only lie on his bed. He still has full awareness, but again, I don't know what Robin did to his own father so that his father was really paralyzed, to speak he had difficulty when the facts, he was, he had never had a stroke before.

Meanwhile, Robin has also taken over all of his father's company and it keeps him very busy, what else now he has to do his thesis trial.

At the moment, Robin is in his father's office, young, handsome, smart, and has mastered his three Father's efforts in just one week, it's incredible. And all the eyes of women, especially the models of her beautiful models are fixed on her. But unfortunately, Robin is not the least bit interested in them.

Ah, don't forget also all the women who had been involved in the relationship with his father have been fired with great disrespect, not only that, Robin gave them a more sadistic lesson than that, that is to spread that they also work to be prostitutes. So Robin is reluctant to hire women who do not have dignity. Now, the whole world will always look down on them.

Robin took his cell phone lying on his desk. He looked for his Mama contact and pressed the dial button. Soon her call was answered, and a soft female voice came from across the phone.

"Rob, how's your job? Is it hard to handle Papa's business?"

"Not at all, Mama. I'm enjoying it" Robin said with a cynical smile imprinted on her lips, not because of anything, but because she was staring at a photo of Elsa, Robin circled her with a red marker and then gave an X on Elsa's face.

"Mama, I'm not coming home tonight. Maybe tomorrow afternoon I'll be home" Robin said later.

"Where are you going, Rob?"

"I have an important job..."

"Hem, okay. Don't forget to eat..."

"Yes, Mama. It's a long time ago yes, I have to go now.."

After she finished talking to her mother, Robin pulled her backpack. Where there's a laptop and some of his college books there.

Then Robin checked the ticket to his departure to Surabaya which had been in his message an hour ago.

Robin still looks worthy of his college children, and it actually gave rise to his own charisma.

"Joanna.." exclaimed Robin to his father's secretary who is now his self-secretary "Urus all until tomorrow afternoon, I have to go out of town" robin said to her sexy secretary.

"Are you booking your plane ticket and hotel, sir?" joanna asked in surprise, because it was usual that if Mr. Andrew would go out of town or abroad, Joanna would take care of everything.

"It is" replied Robin
