" Not good boy, exposed to a scandal twice what else with the same person. Try to think, from the scandal who is the most at a disadvantage? "
Sagar looked at his mother confused. Because he himself did not think in that direction.
" Of course your wife! Even if he knew anything about the truth, he must be very embarrassed and hurt. Even if he doesn't show it in front of you. His heart must have been hurt. "
' Mother is right. I should be with him now. ' Inner Sagar.
" Your father was handsome and very popular. But he was never exposed to the gossip that everyone was talking about. Look at you now. Distant from your father. You should be better than him. Is it not the same as you giving Alesa a chance. " Sagar was shocked to hear the words of his mother who could think in that direction.
" Mom doesn't hate Alesa. She is a beautiful woman and smart. He is also very good at growing up successfully without family support. I know you must have a sense of responsibility and want to protect her. But there are times when you also have to let go of your responsibility. Because it wasn't purely your fault in the past. "
Sagar's face turned sad. He remembered back then where the difficult thing he had been through all this time.
Back when Sagar was eight years old he and Alesa's brother were kidnapped by a gang of hoodlums to ask for a very expensive ransom. They were sealed in an oil warehouse near a forest far from the front. Somehow the incident happened, the warehouse suddenly burned down. Sagar and Alesa's brother try to save themselves, Sagar manages to get out of the warehouse first, he jumps from the top of the window. But Alesa's brother is still stuck in there. And not for how long the warehouse exploded along with a burst of flames. Sagar could only scream and cry without being able to do anything.

Withstanding the drowsiness he felt, Nadira opened the door of the house when he heard the bell ringing. His eyes were shocked when he found out who had come. The woman he had been waiting for all this time.
" You didn't let me in? " Tanya Alesa who broke Nadira's shock.
" Yes, please come in. "
Nadira goes to the kitchen to get Alesa a drink, but Alesa follows Nadira from behind and she sits in Nadira's kitchen mini bar.
' Nadira, you also have to know your true place. ' Inner Alesa who watched Nadira prepared two teas for them.
' Like me now. Because Sagar won't let anyone in misfortune. He still has a sense of guilt and empathy for others. Though he himself threw himself into the shackles of misfortune. That's why I want to see Sagar live in happiness. '
Nadira put a glass on the table, and she sat down next to Alesa.
' Sagar! It's enough you keep all those shackles. I can't see any of that anymore. ' Inner Alesa, she sipped tea made by Nadira.
" Scandal news has spread widely to the media. And wait for the agency to give a real statement. I think it's even more helpful if you take care of yourself. " Said Nadira.
" I didn't think about it much, huh. Because it is often also exposed to scandal. Like that with him. " Said Alesa disdainfully.
" But I thought about it, no matter how close you two were. On the day of the scandal out you even go to the house of your opponent scandal." Nadira said, starting to be brave.
On the other hand without them noticing, Sagar went home. At first he wanted to say hello, but after faintly hearing their chat he preferred to retreat and listen to their chatter from behind the wall.
" Nadira! Even if the scandalous opponent wasn't me, it was common. People like Sagar are used to scandals like this. If you are afraid of being too much like this. How can you live with Sagar? "
This time Nadira was tough not crying like before.
" And what about your first words? What you said to me first. "
" What? " Tanya Nadira still doesn't remember.
" You promised me, didn't you get divorced with Sagar?! "
Sagar was shocked to hear Alesa's words from behind the wall, wanting to feel like he came to them but still he held it.
At that time, after returning from the hospital, Sagar came to the funeral home. He saw Alesa who was still crying over her brother's departure. Sagar felt very guilty because he could not save his brother. He blamed himself for making Alesa a kara. Sagar hugged Alesa, and continued to say sorry. Since then, Sagar has always promised to take care and take responsibility for what happened to Alesa.
Sagar recalled his mother's words just now, that there was a time when he had to give up that responsibility.
" Well, how's it going with what you told me back then? You told me you were getting a divorce, right? But what is the reality to date? "
' Alesa, I've done everything that's best for you, I consider you a good friend, and treat you well. But you're misunderstanding all of that. ' Inner Sagar.
" You're acting like you're getting a divorce. But what are you doing? And where? You still can't finish it! "
' Why are you talking to your wife like that? Aren't we friends? ' Inner Sagar is sad.
" Are you waiting for me to divorce my husband? My mind changed for that time. It seems I just realized there was a misunderstanding between me and my husband. "
" So, you still want to maintain this heartless marriage of yours? "
" Married without feelings. Hah" Nadira smiled wryly.
" I used to think that Sagar married me to save your relationship. Because I believe what you say. I guessed what was on my mind. I don't think Sagar likes you. Because he wanted to protect my brother. That's why I want to get divorced from her. "
' And because of that divorce, I lost her forever. ' The inner Nadira that he could not reveal.
" Yes, like my sister said, I've benefited from this marriage. While my husband is having this marriage not because he wants it he is forced to live all this. I know, that's not the real Sagar word, is it?!"
