Divorce
AD CHAPTER 51 - Can't Do Anything

It's been a week of Niko's out-of-town duty and today Niko's plan is to go home. As soon as he came home from the office Ririn immediately took a shower. He deliberately dressed in front of a mirror and did not forget to wear a little perfume. The room was arranged as neat as possible so that when her husband came home she could linger in the room.

Although they have been married for a month, Niko is still cold. Even when duty outside the city Niko never contacted his wife asking for news of his wife. But Ririn kept trying to make her husband love her.

She could not wait for her husband to come. To relieve her sense of boredom Ririn fell on her bed and played her phone. Time passed and magrib arrived, Niko did not come home either. Ririn was worried because it was almost night her husband did not come home too, but when he was leaving Ririn had asked Niko about until home at what time. Niko tells Ririn that there is no obstruction usually at five in the afternoon has arrived home. But it's already late in the night Niko hasn't come home either.

‘Why mas Niko hasn't reached home yet. Did something happen to her?’

A very worried Ririn ends up calling her husband but Niko's phone is off. Finally Ririn exited the room and paced on the terrace waiting for her husband's arrival. Her feelings were not calm before her husband came home.

Seeing the confused Ririn back and forth from the living room to the terrace and back to the living room, his mother and father immediately asked.

“You why Ririn, I saw since you were pacing back and forth from work,’ said her mother.

“Yes, I see that too. What is Ririn?” ask her again.

“Mas Niko has not arrived yet, but she said that afternoon has arrived. But it's already night time mas Niko hasn't arrived yet,” explained Ririn.

His mother smiled immediately. “Perhaps the streets are jammed so he has not arrived. Try your phone aja.”

“Udah Ririn phone Bu, but the phone is not active.”

“Yes, you wait. Hopefully nothing happens to him. You pray a lot Ririn, may Niko arrive safely,” said her mother.

“It's not too late either. Maybe it's out later he just arrived.”

“But why so long time ya Bu.”

“Yes there may be obstacles,” his father said.

“Number of newlyweds, wait it so impatient.” Mother's joking.

Ririn who heard her mother's words felt ashamed of herself. He went straight into the room.

Niko, who had returned from an out-of-town assignment, did not go straight home. But he went home to his mother's house.

As soon as his mother's house, his mother was astonished.

“Why don't you go straight home to your house Niko. Surely Ririn is waiting for you.”

“Later to Mom, Niko still wants to be home Mom.”

Finally mom Tanti let Niko rest in front of the tv. He watched TV and fell asleep on the couch. Ms. Tanti who saw Niko fall asleep was quiet. Later, when he woke up from his sleep, the plan was that Tanti would send him back to his home.

***

“Niko, what time do you want to go home?” ask mom Tanti.

“In the meantime Mom,” answered Niko while watching tv.

“So you said you finished your magrib home. It's over magrib you haven't come home either. You don't feel sorry for your wife. Ririn must have been waiting for you since. Why are you also going straight here. You should have gone home to your house first and met your wife because you were married, Niko.”

“Niko lazy to Bu go home.”

“Whatever why. If you feel bad living with in-laws, you can contract a house with Ririn.”

Niko just kept quiet listening to her mother. Actually Niko was lazy to go home not because she lived at home with her in-laws, but she felt more comfortable living in her own mother's house.

But if you remember her mother's words just now Niko also felt sorry for Ririn. All this time Ririn had looked very good to her. She always prepared breakfast and prepared her work clothes as well. While Niko never paid attention to Ririn. When it is finished breakfast Niko immediately went to the office without caring about Ririn leaving at what time and what ride. Niko never talked to his wife.

Since they got married, Niko went straight to the room and watched tv in the room. Niko soon realized that she had hurt her wife's feelings. Let alone to touch his wife, to talk even he feels no time. Niko always talks to his wife for the most important things. In the room, the two were silent. While the notoriously quiet Ririn never spoke or invited her husband to talk. While in the room both of them are cool to watch tv without any talking. Niko was lying on the couch watching tv, while Widya was lying on her bed.

‘I've been a lot guilty to Ririn. Even though I don't care about Ririn and my attitude is very cold towards Ririn, but Ririn is still being nice to me. He still prepared breakfast for me even my clothes and shoes were all prepared. But I never did get nice to him myself. I have failed to marry Widya and I do not want my second marriage to fail again. I have to change my attitude towards Ririn. I'll learn to love him.’

After thinking long enough and regretting his actions, Niko finally decided to go home right now. Ms. Tanti who saw Niko coming home with a cheerful face felt very happy.

***

Almost half an hour and a half ten nights Niko arrived at her in-laws' house. When entering the room, Ririn was playing her phone. As soon as she saw the arrival of her husband, Ririn immediately got up and got out of bed.

“Mas just got home, have you eaten?” ririn asked looking worried.

Niko did not answer. He just looked at Ririn's face not blinking. As soon as Ririn looked at her face, Niko felt regret.

‘It turns out Ririn is very beautiful,’ Inner Niko in heart.

Niko looked at Ririn unblinking making Ririn feel astonished.

‘Why is Niko staring at me like that. What she was angry,’ Inner Ririn was confused.

“Mas have eaten, let me prepare yes,” said Ririn again.

Then Ririn was about to leave the room but her hands were pulled by Niko. So close, Niko immediately hugged his wife's body tightly making Ririn unable to breathe. Ririn was immediately shocked by the behavior of her husband who suddenly hugged her.

“Mas release...” says Ririn.

Niko did not let go of her embrace even she tightened her embrace.

“I'm sorry, Ririn for hurting your feelings. I never treated you as my wife when we were married.”

Ririn's heart was like being dislodged from listening to her husband's words.
