Divorce


Adrian saw the wall clock again, it was 10 p.m., but Angel never arrived. He was agitated while standing in the living room window. He stared out there with the rain still pouring down with the sound of lightning, holding his phone. He kept calling Angel's cell phone inactive. He realized it was so outrageous.


Why didn't he pick up his wife who was raining? While he was having fun and in a safe state, not raining. Adrian thinks all the things he did to Angel.


“Pak, Mom hasn't come home?” Ask the aunt, when she saw Adrian still waiting for his wife.


Adrian nodded.


“Poor Mom, Sir. He's raining outside, where the lightning is so strong.” Said the Aunt again.


“I am outrageous yes, Bi. Whereas previously Angel called me and asked to be picked up, but I was more concerned with my business.”


“Yes, I'm too busy with my business. Though Mother is very good, where there are people who want to take care of children who are not her children.” The aunt let out her complaint. For a long time he wanted to say this to his employer, but he did not dare.


Adrian turned to his aunt.


“Sorry, Sir. Not that I was sassy.” The Aunt looked down.


“It's okay, Bi. You're correct. I was outrageous.”


Adrian took the car keys.


“Where, Sir?’ Ask the Aunt.


“I want to pick up Angel first, who knows she's still waiting around there. Please, take care of the kids yes, Bi.” Adrian and his aunt nodded.


Adrian runs his car quite fast in the midst of heavy rain. An increasingly night makes the streets no longer crowded. After arriving at the campus area, Adrian put his car down and tried to find his wife.


He stopped in front of the deserted campus building Angel. There were only a few male students sitting in a crowd of people inside.


Then Adrian came down wearing an umbrella and asked the student. No one knows where Angel is.


“Angel, where are you?” Adrian murmured, when he was in the car again.


He ran his car and turned around. Then, he stopped at a stop, exactly where not far from Angel fell while running towards the stop. Adrian went down and asked the clontong shop seller who was right next to the stop. Fortunately, the rain was no longer as heavy as when he left earlier.


“Pak, Sorry to ask. Did you see this woman?” Adrian shows Angel photos from his phone.


He had been sandid Angel who was sitting pensively in the pool while waiting for Alika and Fariz to finish swimming.


“Oh, this. Yes, I see Sir. This mother ran towards this stop and her belongings fell. I found this on that road, too, sir. It must have been that mother.” Answer the clontong seller while giving a gold-colored watch.


The watch is a watch given by Adrian, at the birthday of Angel last year.


“Oh.” Adrian received the thing while thinking.


During being Adrian's wife, Angel did not ask anything from him, even the monthly money he gave was never used Angel other than for household shopping.


“Where did he go after him, sir?” Ask Adrian again.


“Oh, yes. After that there was a man who paddled the mother, kept the man brought the mother into his car.”


Suddenly, Adrian was surprised. “Men?” Mumbled.


“Iya, sir. He was the same height as the rich father, his body was also sturdy. Gantenglah.” The clontong seller again.


“Alright, thank you.”


Adrian looked back at the wet and shabby watch. His heart fluttered, wondering who was the man who helped Angel at the time? And, Why did Angel fall for this gift of hers?


Adrian went back to his house. He entered his house walking on a sled.


“Where, Sir? Meet you?” Ask the Aunt after opening the door for her lethargic-looking employer.


Adrian shaking. Then, walk past the aunt to her room. There he tried again to call Angel's phone. There was only the voice of the operator there. Angel's phone is still inactive. Then, Adrian cleaned himself up. His mind was still fixed on Angel and the man who was said to be the clontong seller.


The night is getting late, but Adrian's eyes have not been closed. At dawn, he could close his eyes. Somehow, hearing that there was another man helping Angel who needed help, made her restless and afraid.

In the morning, in Angel's apartment room, Malik wakes up first. His hands were raised to touch Angel's nose, thin lips and smooth cheeks. He did not expect tonight, Angel himself asked to be touched. When he became his lover, Malik always invited the woman to commit this sin.


“I know you still love me very much, Bee.” Malik muttered right in front of Angel who was still closed.


“You're my first love, Bee. The only first woman to touch my heart and body.” Malik smiled to himself in the middle.


Angel's eyes opened slowly. He smiled at Malik who was looking at him with a smile. Malik's hand was still stroking that smooth cheek.


“Again, Bee.”

“Why you?” Malik asked, as he looked at Angeltak again smiling and looking the other way with a blank look.


“We're criminals, Kak.” Angel said with a blank look.


“Salah Adrian who can't take good care of you. I let you go before, but after I got you here with puffy eyes and wet cheeks. I can't stay still.” Malik said that he also told of his meeting with Mang Asep, until Adrian's driver became an informant for him.


“So?” Angel asked, shifting her body.


“Sorry, Bee. I just want to make sure you're okay there.”


“Just do you know everything.”


They fell silent again. However, Malik's hands did not stop stroking Angel's cheeks, hair, and shoulders.


“Kak.” Call Angel by looking towards Malik.


“Hmm.”


“Urus divorce me with Mas Adrian.”


Malik got up. “Really?”
