Caught in the Love of the Past
Chapter 8

"Don't be pretentious to care about me, you better take care of your affair," said Dimas.

Again he still says his wife is cheating, he does not feel enough loyalty Fitri so far who is still loyal to accompany him when he is still not able to live out his true responsibilities.

"Astaghfirullah, Bang. What's wrong with you?" ask Fitri to her husband.

"Bun," shriek

Rasya woke up from his sleep because he heard the noise between his father and his mother.

"Darling, are you awake?" ask Fitri to her daughter.

"Mother, I had a fight, huh?" rasha asked her daughter.

Fitri glanced at the husband, waiting for Dimas' response to questions from his daughter.

"No, my dear. Mommy just woke up dad to pray," replied Fitri because there was no answer at all from Dimas.

Dimas got up from his position, he stood up and stepped into the bathroom.

After washing his face, Dimas saw the food on the table was presented.

He saw the salted fish sambal with vegetables already served on the table, without carrying out his obligations as a Muslim that is dawn prayer, Dimas immediately took the plate.

When Dimas prepared to eat, his anger at his wife made him feel hungry.

Fitri leads Rasya to the bathroom, to wash his face first.

She did not bathe her daughter when she woke up, for the reason that the water was still cold. Fitri felt sorry for her daughter if bathed too early.

Fitri stared in wonder at the husband who immediately ate.

"dude? Have you prayed at dawn?" ask Fitri to her husband.

"For what prayer, our lives will not change" replied Dimas.

He still has not accepted the loss of 3 million money just because of the stupidity and love of the wife in men other than himself.

“Astaghfirullah, Bang. I'm saying it like that.” Sally reminded her husband.

“You don't have much to say!” snapped Dimas.

He no longer cared about his little daughter who was looking for a relationship between his parents.

Fitri let out a long sigh, he stepped into the room, Fitri chose to clean the room instead of arguing with a husband who could not control his emotions.

Fitri places Rasya on a mattress and gives him a toy so his daughter does not disturb him while he tidies up the room.

When Fitri was busy cleaning the room, the door was opened by her husband. Dimas came out of the house and stepped into the shop of the childless widow he visited last night.

“Hei, Dim. Good sleep last night?”ask one of Dimas' friends named Yanto.

Dimas scrunched his forehead.

“Why not go home?” ask Udin another friend of Dimas.

“What do you mean?” ask Dimas confused.

“You slept here last night, didn't you? Why not go home, anyway? You were fighting with your wife?” ask Grace to be curious.

Such are the friends of Grace who in the village, always just curious about the affairs of people.

“The name is also household, sometimes there is a problem that is natural,” said Dimas answered questions from his friends.

“This morning, viral. Everyone's talking about you, Dim?” yanto said.

“What do you mean?” tanya Dimas still did not understand at all.

“You haven't opened face*ook?” ask Yanto again.

Dimas shook his head, Yanto immediately approached Dimas and thrust his phone at Dimas to inform him of the status of one of their friends in the village.

“Yes, there is a little problem,” Dimas admitted the accusations of his friends.

"If there's a problem it's solved, bro. Not to run away" advised Yanto.

Yanto is one of Dimas' closest friends, little does he know how to live Dimas and Fitri.

During this time, Yanto knew his best friend's wife was a kind woman and she was willing to sacrifice anything for the sake of her family.

"I don't have to solve my problems with women who have betrayed my love" Dimas said after they sat on a corner in Susi's shop.

Dimas did not want many people to know about the problem even though his attitude last night made many people know that he was in trouble.

"Dim, I'll wait in the usual place, yeah!" exclaim Grace as she was about to get out of the stall.

As Dimas promised Grace they would go to work the gardens of the people to earn a wage.

"okay!" exciting Dimas.

The journey of Dimas' life in the village is no longer equivalent to his education, he who graduated S1 worked odd jobs like his friends who did not go to school at all, although he taught but he did not do it every day he taught only about 3 days a week.

Dimas's work in addition to teaching, sometimes harvesting palm oil, working in people's gardens or in his own garden.

"What do you want to drink, Dim?" sapa Susui who just finished serving her other customers.

Susi accidentally completes another customer's order so she can chat with Dimas.

Dimas turned his head to look at the childless widow with my eyes, there was a charm that started to attract Dimas' eyes.

Dimas smiled.

"Coffee, Sus," replied Dimas smiling.

His heart that was wounded due to prejudice against his wife made him start glancing at Susi.

Susi who has a body like a Spanish guitar with minimal clothes and form the curves of her body make the eyes of men customers in her stall more comfortable to be there.

In addition, the polish of makeup that never faded from his face made the men more reluctant to release the eyes of the childless widow.

Likewise with Dimas, he began to be interested in the figure of Susi who began to tempt his faith.

"Where is your wife?" susi asked as she placed a cup of coffee on the table in front of Dimas.

"Mhm, that. He didn't admit to having an affair, but my father said he used to run around a lot when I wasn't home" Dimas replied.

He increasingly became ugly about his wife in the presence of other women.

"Dim, don't talk like that" whispered Yanto, who couldn't hear his best friend uncover the disgrace of his household.

"Ish," said Dimas.

"What your father said, Dim. I also often see him going outside, sometimes he goes alone. Sometimes he takes your son, lest he have a deal out there without our knowledge," Susi added to Dimas' heartache.

Dimas's disappointment with his wife grew, so he forgot his wife's every step from home was always with his permission.

Fitri who is always out taking orders for electronic goods ordered by some of his customers.

That's how Fitri is looking for money, because life in the village makes the mothers there no how capable of riding a motorcycle, so they ask Fitri to buy what they want.

Grateful Fitri has a good subscription store so that every item she takes in the store is always given a wholesale price.

With that Fitri can sell at market prices, so many mothers choose to shop with Fitri rather than traders who come to the village because the price is far from the store.

Dimas' hands clenched, his eyes red holding the anger in his heart.

Yanto was upset to see Dimas' attitude, and he left Dimas there.

Seriate...
