"Mas! Vino!Mas, it's Melody!". Melody said, she knew the husband was swinging their baby.

"Astagfirullah, astagfirullah, so what?" Melody, wiped her face that was filled with sweat.

Allahuahbar.... Allahuahbar...

At dawn in the nearby mosque, Melody came out of the room to the kitchen.

Intending to take ablution water for congregational prayer with Ina, kuduk fur immediately stood where to take water out of the back door.

Melody, get the water in the well. Looking around, he was already very scared. Rush ablution, it feels like to run away as soon as possible.

Melody, heard a strange sound from the direction of the well. Immediately took a thousand footstep, entered inside not daring to look back.

At about 9am, Melody and Ms. Ina headed for a mountain on foot.

"Why does he live in the woods, ma'am?". Melody asked, astonished her legs were so tired already.

"No idea, son. He is the oldest in the village, and wants to live with the villagers. However, our villagers flattered him greatly". Miss Ina replied, stop stepping on her feet.

Melody, looking ahead, saw a large house surrounded by large trees.

 Wuemuss....

The wind blew, the dry leaves flying around them.

"Call Aki Belau, be polite and friendly". Whisper bu Ina, directly in the nod Melody who was agitated since earlier.

The deg!

Melody, ordinary expression saw a man who was no longer young.

"Please come in, son". Said the man, his beard was very long and the necklace of beads was quite large around his neck. In the hands of a crooked stick, tanned and long hair. Dress neatly, introducing a white turban on his head.

Aki Belau, please sit in front of him.

Melody and Ina, according to Aki Belau's orders. He, soft and soft words are very beautiful to hear by Melody.

Melody's eyes, looking around so many frames of the Holy verses of Allah SWT. Even some pictures of great clerics, on display on the wall.

The surroundings looked very neat, so many piles of books in the closet. One became satisfied with Melody's attention, a closet inside which contained the Qur'an.

Some questions from Aki Belau, to Melody and immediately answered.

Mbah Belau, splashing water in a glass towards Melody and reciting the holy surah Allah SWT.

"Astagfirullah, someone deliberately sent black magic to your husband son. This is very dangerous, the bet if it is too late to treat". Said Aki Belau, staring at Melody was very concerned. "Drink this water, already containing some holy surah Allah SWT. Someone intentionally destroyed you, son, the creature kept following you. Lucky for you, you're holding on and he can't enter your body. Son, remember Allah SWT and pray for protection. Try to remember again, has anyone you ever hurt?". Aki Belau asked, smiling slightly.

Melody, nodding softly and telling her past. Where in the past, he had a relationship with a man and their relationship was not blessed.

Aki Belau, immediately asked Melody to immediately meet the young man and apologize.

Aki Belau, gave her a bottle of water for her husband. He gave a bracelet made of black thread, to Melody.

When she finished, Melody went back to town to see her husband. His only hope at this moment, must meet the man in his past.

By night, Melody had reached her in-laws' house and rushed to her husband in a state of worsening.

Ms. Mega, still reluctant to talk to her daughter-in-law. He hid in his room when Melody came.

Miss Sonya, feeling relieved at the arrival of Melody in the safety without any shortcomings.

Slowly Melody began rubbing her husband's face using water given by Aki Belau. There was a small smile on the corner of his lips, the husband's face was not as blue as before.

"Well, I'm gonna go again and find someone who did this. I'm picking up Vino, mahah. Every Adhan reverberated in the mosque, you should wipe this water on the face of Mas Vino. Please help me, please". Melody, beg the mother.

"Son, let me do it. Dad, take care of Vino and keep your word". Mr. Marto, feel good about the struggle of son-in-law for his son.

"Thank you dad, I don't know what else to do. How's mom doing, is she okay?". Melody asked, she was also worried about her mother-in-law's situation.

"Son, everything here is fine. Vino, act like yesterday again. Now Ustadz Yahya, go home to rest because his head was hit by a throw from your husband". Said Sonya.

Melody, in deep shock heard the mother's words. "Astagfirullah, why is it like this? Sorry mom, have to go again, son. Pray mamah, hopefully quickly solve this problem and be with dad again". Melody, kissed the forehead of her son who was fast asleep in the lap of the grandmother.

"You must be careful son, do not forget to pray well". pinta mama Sonya, gently stroking her son's hair.

"Are mommy and mommy taking turns looking after Nalendra?" Melody asked, curious to see the tired mother.

"No, just call Darna and Dina. Ever since my mother-in-law got mad at me, never held her granddaughter". Sonya, I have to be honest. "Even yesterday your husband's boss and co-workers at the office came to see Vino. Mamah, seeing a woman so familiar with your mother-in-law".

The deg!

Melody, shook her head softly and felt her heart slicing at the mother's words. Oh God, so very kind of mother with our son. Do you not want to acknowledge my son as his grandson?.Inner Melody, her heart was like in a crumple.
