"Darling, just calm down" whispered Gandhi in his wife's ear.
Chaca nodded in understanding. They finally fell silent for a moment. Ayu cried until both her eyes swelled up. Only after feeling relieved did he open his voice.
"Sorry Mas, Cha, I really don't know if you are the owner of this cafe" said Ayu with a hoarse voice.
"Yuk, sorry. I kicked your husband out of the house. And from there I just found out that you're not living in that house anymore" Gandhi said.
Ayu smiled bitterly at the word 'husband', many times he exhaled his heavy breath. Ayu has always struggled alone, shutting herself off from the world. Maybe it's time to face reality again. Since there was a child that he had to raise, there was a great responsibility that was carried on both shoulders.
"I'm sorry, Mas. I can't keep your trust. But I really can't stand it. My mother-in-law always treated me like her slave. Never did he say softly to me, always yelling and whatever I did was always wrong in his eyes." Ayu's voice shook.
Chaca squeezes Ayu's hand, sorry for what she is going through. Gandhi listened carefully.
"Mas Anjar did not treat me well either. He never thought I existed. One day, I followed Mas Anjar. Out of curiosity about his work," continued Ayu began to shed tears again.
"And ... how surprised I am, seeing with my own eyes and my head he makes out even kisses with another woman in an apartment. They're in, I'm sure they must have done ...." Ayu could not continue her words. He cried as much as even his sobbing sounded heartbreaking.
Chaca immediately moved in next to Ayu. He grabbed Ayu's body, hugged her tightly. Chaca was crying hearing that. Just imagine making it cramped. How can a pregnant woman be treated like that by her husband and her own in-laws.
"Patience, Ma'am. I'm sure there will be wisdom behind all these trials" Chaca said amid her comments.
Gandhi clenched both hands. Anger enveloped his heart. Even though he had been hurt by Ayu, still he did not accept. Pregnant women are in desperate need of attention and affection. But Ayu, was treated like that in her pregnancy.
"I wasn't strong anymore, until I finally decided to leave the house. When it was raining so hard, my feet kept going without direction. My whole body is soaked. At last, I fainted on the street. I was found by Grandma July. She took care of me, helped me during my pregnancy to give birth. Even until now, he wants to help keep my son," explained Ayu let go of Chaca's embrace.
Gandhi and Chaca were concerned about what happened to him. Both are sad to hear it.
"Sir, why don't you go back to your mother's house?" ask Chaca slowly.
Ayu smiled bitterly, her gaze blank. Since the death of his father, Ayu's mother has always been careless. She was afraid of the baby. So, Ayu decided to stay away from everything.
"This .. this I deserve. This is the karma I have to accept. Sorry for all my mistakes, Mom. I'm sorry." She came back crying with regret.
"There is no perfect man in this world. Everyone must have made a mistake. Most importantly, how that person can change. And will not repeat the same mistake" Gandhi said.
Chaca nodded her head. He rubbed his tears slowly. He was grateful to have met someone as good as Gandhi.
The one he once wasted, but never held a grudge against him. On the contrary, all his bad attitudes were met with millions of Gandhi's kindness. Shame, regret, all mixed into one.
Chaca then asked the state of the baby. Which since Baby El's pregnancy has never been fussy, Ayu never felt any cravings. When giving birth it feels so easy, despite feeling tremendous pain but the birth is so smooth.
Until now Baby El was born, rarely fussy. Ayu was very happy to be sent a little angel to accompany her.
"Healthy keep on Ma'am, his Baby. Come here sometime if I'm off for college. Let me play," Chaca said excitedly.
Ayu looked at Chaca, "Ma .. meaning?" tanya Ayu stammered.
"Sir, you're accepted to work here. You keep the game stand. We still need someone to fill it up" Chaca said, touching Ayu's hand.
Ayu was moved to hear it, "Thank you very much, Cha, thank you," he said repeatedly.
"May Baby El stay healthy, Ma'am. Don't forget to come here sometime" Chaca added with a smile.
Ayu nodded steadily. Again he was very grateful to be met with good people.
Gather with good people, and you will get good. Conversely, if you gather with people who turn, you will also get lost and get hurt.
