DEANNA
Deane-39


Not getting an answer from the three of them, Adit immediately took the money from Deana's hand and gave it to Tiara again. His gaze looked extremely annoyed as well as Tiara's. 


"Why?" ask Tiara. It was obvious that the woman was holding back her emotions. 


"Ma, I don't like the way Mama does." Adit replied bravely. "Mama did this twice. Mama has too much faith in Mama's ex-daughter-in-law." 


"Adit! You dare to fight mama?" Tiara did not accept. He also pointed at Deana's face, which had just looked down deeply. "Just because of this woman, you dare to fight mama?"


Adit was about to argue again, but Deana instead restrained the man and coded him with a blink of an eye. Asking Adit to no longer open his voice let alone debate Tiara. Adit nodded and obeyed Deana. 


"I'm sorry, Madam. If my presence makes you and your family uncomfortable. I am indeed just a village girl who does not deserve to set foot here. But, as long as you know, Madam. I've never done anything as bad as you think it is." Deana began to dare to open her voice. It had been enough during this time that his patience was tested by being bullied by the Tiara. 


"Allah! Still a holy grail," Tiara sneered. Still staring at Deana cynically. 


Deana's hands were tightly clenched. "If you don't believe anything it's okay, Madam. I will not force. God knows everything better. Like Marni, thanks for working here, Lik." 


"Together, De. Forgive Lik too. Lik believes you didn't do that." Marni bravely still defends Deana. 


"Thank you, Lik. Mas Adit ...." Deana hung up her words. Staring at Adit very closely. It actually makes Adit feel anxious and not careless especially when looking at the look of Deana's eyes that are so difficult to explain. "I'm sorry, I resigned from working with Mas Adit. Maybe after this, I'll go back to the village." 


Adit widened his eyes at Deana's words. "You're right, De! I don't agree!" refute Adit. He tried to grab Deana's hand, but was immediately pushed over by the girl. 


Adit's worried. It is impossible to let Deana go, but even if she holds back, she does not have full rights. Their relationship is only limited to employers and caregivers. No more than that. After all, maybe for now what Deana did was the best way until she could find valid evidence. At least, Adit felt that in Deana village would be safer. 


"De ... okay. I agree you go home, but if you want to go back. Then come here again. I will always welcome you again" Adit replied. 


Deana breathed a sigh of relief. He thought it would be difficult to resign, but Adit immediately agreed.

"You're serious, De?" tanya Tinah did not believe it when Deana said she would go home. 


"Yes, Mom. Adit agreed too." Deana looks busy arranging her clothes and stuffing them into a suitcase. "Why do you want to come home or just be here? Rangga's going to school here." 


"Mother also wants to go back to the village. More comfortable. Even if the mother comes home, Rangga can change schools to the village instead of having to be far away from us. But ...." 


Deana looked at the mother who hung her words. The woman's face looked doubtful. 


"But what, Mom?" Deana was getting impatient herself. 


Tinah breathed in her breath. "But what about you?"
