Chasing you with Pellets
32. The Past of Aprilia

The days passed. Without Ratna noticing, her desire to meet Rian grew even greater. Even Ratna had the ambition to have that man. Apparently it happened because of the influence of black magic that Fitria had.

If looked back, Fitria had several times performing rituals at home which was planned to be the palace of love Ricki and Ratna. And when Fitria left the house, Fitria had not had time to clean up the rest of the ritual she had done. While Ratna's men also did not dare to go into the room without orders from Ratna.

Until now the creature that awaits black magic belonging to Fitria is still often returned to the house as if coming there to complete his duties.

And the creature shadowed Ratna because the woman often visited the house just to remember her friendship with Ricki first.

The creature will work if it gets the blood reward. And the blood he obtained from the cry of Ratna.

Apparently during a visit there Ratna often cried lamenting betrayal as well as the departure of Ricki. Ratna's tears are like offerings that can make the creature work to carry out its duties.

The first male to interact intensely was Rian. Therefore, it is not surprising that the creature chased Rian and considered Rian as a prospective prey.

Ratna's daydreams fell apart as Rian got up from his seat and walked away leaving him. Ratna smiled and followed Rian. As before, Ratna will take Rian to her house. And they will love there.

Apparently after meeting Rian the spirit of Ratna's life rose. He decided to stay at the house and work in the city. While both Ricki's parents chose to return to the village because they felt they had no reason to settle there.

Indri woke up with a body bathed in sweat and breath gasping for breath. It seems he just had a bad dream.

"Oh my God, what is it. What happened was the same Mas Rian ..," Indri said repeatedly.

With trembling hands Indri grabbed the glass on the nightstand and sipped the contents until the remaining quarter of the glass. After that he looked for a moment. When he turned to the wall clock, he saw the clock showing five o'clock in the morning.

Indri rushed down from the bed and went to the bathroom for ablution. After that, he performed the dawn prayer.

After the dawn prayer Indri pray for guidance. Even though Indri cried, but his feelings were much better afterwards.

Today is her third divorce hearing with Rian. Indri is determined to be present in order to solve everything immediately. It seems that Indri does not want to forgive Rian even though the man begged to be given the opportunity once again.

How could Indri give him a chance while Rian came accompanied by Ratna in the previous trial. Ratna who continues to follow Ricki makes Indri upset. Moreover, Indri did not see Rian's efforts to keep Ratna away from him.

I arrived at the office as usual. Indri did plan to go to court during the afternoon break because his lawyer told him if the trial schedule fell at two noon later. Indri felt he could still finish his work while waiting for a break.

As Indri walked in the parking lot, a voice greeted him. Indri turned his head and was surprised to see Ratna there.

"What are you doing here ?" ask Indri.

"I'm just saying, speed up your divorce. I'm pregnant ...," said Ratna, rubbing her stomach proudly.

Indri was surprised not to be trapped. She knew her husband was cheating. But Indri never thought if Rian went too far even adulterous with Ratna until the woman was pregnant.

From a distance seen Aprilia who also just arrived at the company. Aprilia kept a close eye on Indri and Ratna. Although not her business, but Aprilia felt that there was something unusual about Indri and Ratna's attitude. Out of curiosity Aprilia approached.

"You're here too Ratna !" greeting Aprilia loudly while approaching Indri and Ratna.

Ratna turned her head and was surprised to see Aprilia. I don't know why Ratna was uncomfortable. It seemed that something within Ratna was churning at the sight of Aprilia.

"You know him too April ?" ask Indri.

"Yes ma'am, I've known more precisely. Does Bu Indri also know Ratna ?" ask Aprilia.

"Just like you. I do not know him intentionally," said Indri while smiling wryly.

Indri and Aprilia's words upset Ratna. Because of his discomfort, Ratna rushed to leave Indri and Aprilia just like that.

Unasked, Aprilia explains her relationship with Ratna. Somehow hearing the confession of Aprilia who once ensnared Ratna's fiancee made Indri upset and pity. Indri is upset because in addition to Aprilia could take the fiancee Ratna, Aprilia is also stupid for wanting to marry Ricki without seeking information about Ricki's status first. But after that Indri felt compassion because Aprilia had become a widow at a very young age. Moreover, Aprilia also said it had been worse with the departure of Ricki.

Indri continued to think about the relationship that happened to Ratna and herself. And so seriously thought, Indri did not realize if he pressed the wrong button and went up to the floor where Adam was in office.

When he got out of the elevator Indri realized that he got off in the wrong place. But when he accidentally saw Adam stepping into his room, Indri rushed to chase.

"Mas Adam ...!" call Indri.

Adam turned his head and smiled seeing Indri come so early to see him. Adam knew there was something Indri wanted to talk to him about. Adam immediately opened the door of his room and invited Indri to enter.

"What's Dri ?" ask Adam.

"This morning I'll let you out for a moment. I want to go to court" said Indri.

"So you're serious about divorcing Rian ?" ask Adam.

"Yes Mas. There is nothing that can be fixed especially the affair Mas Rian is also pregnant now," said Indri with a bitter smile.

Indri's reply surprised Adam. He had not contacted Rian to ask what had happened. But hearing Indri's words made Adam realize that he could not interfere. Moreover, Rian has made a fatal mistake that violates the commitment of marriage.

"But there is little that bans Mas ...," said Indri.

"What's the matter ?" ask Adam.

"It turns out Aprilia knows Mas Rian's affair. And Aprilia is the third person in Ratna's relationship with her fiance first" Indri said.

Then Indri recounted Aprilia's relationship with Ratna. Indri also expressed his feelings after knowing Aprilia's past. Although surprised but Adam tried to calm down.

"Can I come to your divorce court with Rian later on Dri ?" ask Adam then.

"For what ?. I won't change my mind. I will still divorce Mas Rian," Indri said firmly because he was worried that Adam would persuade him not to divorce Rian.

"I know. I just want to see Rian's expression when I see you. And I'm also curious about Ratna. Didn't you say Ratna was pregnant ?" ask Adam.

"He who said so earlier," said Indri upset.

"Well that's him. Whether Rian knew about her pregnancy or ...," Adam's speech was interrupted because Indri cut fast.

"OKs. Mas Adam may come but I go first. There is something I have to discuss with my lawyer later," said Indri.

Adam nodded with a smile.

And that afternoon Adam went with Dinar to accompany Indri in court.

"Such a Kasian the Indri. I did not expect that his marriage based on love could be shipwrecked as well eventually," said Dinar sadly.

Adam just remained silent as he continued to observe Rian coming with Ratna. From his seat Adam could see that Rian's love for Indri was still there, even very big. But something stops him until Rian is unaware of his own feelings. Adam's gaze shifted towards Ratna. Adam knew if Ratna kept something inside him and it made Adam shake his head.

"Why do the gangs of Mas. Is there something strange, eh ?" ask Dinar.

"Do you believe that the woman next to Rian is pregnant ?" ask Adam.

Dinar turned towards Ratna and watched her for a while. As a mother of two children, Dinar must know the condition of women who are pregnant.

"I was looking at the characteristics of pregnant women. But why I'm not sure if she's pregnant Mas ..," said Dinar while frowning.

Dinar certainly made Adam smile. The man was certain that Ratna was also hiding something. When Dinar wanted to ask, Adam crossed his index finger in front of his lips in a sign that they could not discuss it there.
