After Wedding
Stay patient

Having to clean up his boarding house, Devan finally makes an appointment to come to his ex-wife's house after everything is settled.

Because it was a lot of dust and had to be cleaned, it was finally finished as well. The room is quite narrow, it turns out to have been conjured in such a way by Devan, until all look diligent.

"I can finally sleep well tonight." He murmured when everything looked neat and clean.

Almost dark time, Devan immediately cleaned himself, that he remembered if he had made an appointment with his ex-wife to meet.

Hurried about being late and making Liyan wait for a long time, finished her bath as well. Then, Devan put on his shirt.

With his simple appearance, Devan begins to trust himself to face all the realities. No matter as much as any insults, he would still be tough to face. A little advice from his tant, always remembered and instilled in daily life by Devan.

Despite the absence of affection from his parents, Devan gets a narrow affection from his late aunt. Despite having to be expelled by his own cousin, Devan doesn't care.

"I know it's hard, but I don't know whose good fortune will go with." He said softly, and examined the two pockets in his pants.

"Oh my God, what money is enough to ride a motorcycle taxi to get to Mr. Boni's house." He muttered again when he remembered that he had brought only a little money, because all rights had been transferred to the property of his cousin.

However, he just kept some money in his bag. Although not much, at least can to survive as long as not payday.

Devan, who does not want to disappoint his ex-wife, leaves immediately and keeps his promise.

During the ride using a motorcycle taxi, Devan enjoys the atmosphere at night on the city streets by riding an ojek.

Arriving at the gate, Devan called the security guard to meet. Because already understand the figure of Devan, do not make suspicious to the security guard house.

"Please come in, sir." Say it politely.

"Thank you very much, sir." Devan answered and rushed in and met his ex-wife.

There is shame, there is also pleasure. Also, the sadness of not being able to pay attention as usual. Because he felt poor.

'Maybe tonight, if I had to stay away from Liyan. Mr. Boni will definitely not allow me to be close to Liyan, because I am poor.' His mind that looked gloomy and uninspired.

"Please come in, sir. Miss is waiting." He greeted Devan with courtesy.

Devan nodded, and went inside the house. As per the directions by the house assistant, Devan had finally headed to the living room.

"Good night. Sorry, it's been disturbing. Thank you also for the invitation to come home." Devan said in a speech style that looks so formal.

Mr. Boni as his father-in-law, also rose from his sitting position, and approached Devan who was still standing. The others are still sitting in their place.

"We all know the news, and you don't have to feel inferior."

"Sorry, Sir. I can't explain everything yet, maybe it's useless if I explain. I have received it with great air. Let's just say that I am indebted, because I have received love from Aunt Sevira. I don't want to escalate the problem." Devan half looked down.

"It's dinner time, we'll eat together. It's been a while, haven't eaten together like you used to. Come on, let's eat first." Invite Mr. Boni who does not want to ruin his mood, and is afraid he will lose his appetite.

"Why are you, Dev? masa' is such a weak guy. Not because you owe, you do not want to solve your problems. Come on, let's eat first."

Devan did not respond at all, because again did not want to discuss about himself with Vando. While Liyan now had a change, and not so moody as the day before.

When he was sitting in the dining room, Devan was enjoying dinner with the Aritama family. The position of his seat is not next to his ex-wife, but facing each other.

Devan who feels he has nothing else, what can he do? thought. Let alone to comfort him, to comfort himself cannot. Besides not being able to, Devan has no capital to spoil his ex-wife.

"Dev, at the meal. Even dream of you, let's eat first. We'll continue talking later." Zavan said, Devan himself only smiled faintly.

Liyan who noticed her ex-husband was uninspired and seemed to have no appetite, saw him feeling pity.

'Dear Brother Devan, must be very hit with the harsh reality that has been defamed by his parents. Heartache, that's for sure.' Inner Liyan while paying attention, also while chewing food.

Liyan also recalled the time she received attention from her ex-husband who was so patient with her. Afraid of being caught in the thought of daydreaming, Liyan immediately finished her food on the plate.

Not really, everyone is done eating. After that, Mr. Boni and the others rushed to move places to chat freely.

"Thank you for dinner, Tut-"

"You have married Liyan, and become part of the Gevindra family, call Papa, and call his mother Liyan not Aunt. Not good, call Mama or Papa."

"But I'm no longer the son-in-law of the Gavindra family, Tut-"

"Papa." Mr. Boni.

Devan smiled embarrassedly hearing that.

"Yes, Pa." Devan replied with shame.

"Tonight you will do it first. Anyway it's late at night, it's ten o'clock at night, mendinganap at Papa's house." Said Mr. Boni.

Devan, who could not resist, finally agreed.

"Yes, son, you do it first. It's been a while, haven't you slept in this house? yes, we want to rest, you rest with Zavan. You must be tired, not just body, also your mind needs rest. So, take a break." His wife Timpal Mr. Boni.

"Yes, sister, it's true what Mama said. Sis Devan's lightening break, it's night too, and it's time to rest." Said Liyan who also chimed in.

Devan, who got persuasion from his ex-wife, felt good in his heart. Although there is a little shame because now he is the one who got the spirit of his ex-wife.

"Thank you very much, Liy. You also rest, it's night. Speaking of which I didn't see Yena, where was she?" devan replied that suddenly did not find Yena.

"When you got home, Aditya picked Yena up." Mr. Boni answered a question from Devan.

"Oh. I guess where, because it's not visible from before. I didn't go back to Aditya's house." Devan.

"Actually Yena refused, but Aditya insisted. So, inevitably, Yena complies with Aditya's invitation. You have to go to work in Aditya's office." Said Zavan chiming in.

"Oh yeah, I just remembered. At that time Yena wanted to go to work for the Gavindra family company, where I worked. Maybe because the situation is not okay, Yena pulled back to her house. Also, Yena's cousin Aditya." Devan said while remembering the time of the agreement with Aditya.

But, now it is just like the enemy, and do not want to know each other.

"Yes, brother, I'm going to the room, I'm going to rest." Said Liyan saying goodbye, Devan assented.

"Yes, please." Answer Devan.

Ms. Liyan, who did not want to disturb her ex-husband's thoughts, chose to dodge, and went to bed early.

Now, Devan is staying accompanied by Zavan, the two of them are friends already from the school era, and already like brothers themselves. Although Devan's condition is deteriorating, it does not make the Aritama family ignore the figure of Devan.

"What's your next plan, Dev? after Vando took it all?" tanya Zavan opened the conversation while sitting down to relax.

"I don't know, Zav. For now my mind is again in chaos. I want to calm my mind first." Devan was no longer excited.

Zavan patted his back, encouraging Devan.
