Yara had just finished washing dirty dishes at Nadine's house, but this afternoon she noticed her employer's situation - which was getting more and more concerning.
Yes, two months ago Yara heard from Nadine - that her husband had agreed to marry another woman in order to get offspring.
From then on, Yara felt a quite drastic change from a Nadine. The woman became more reserved than four months ago - when Yara was first working at her home.
Nadine rarely goes back to Singapore. He looked like a lonely depressed person.
"Mr?" Yara called out to Nadine who sat down daydreaming.
Nadine seemed to flinch, she also looked at Yara with a sad look.
"Aren't healthy anymore? What am I gonna do today?"
Nadine's increasingly lackluster condition is what also makes Yara reluctant to immediately resign from her job even though Anton and Sky have repeatedly prohibited her from continuing to work.
For Yara, Nadine is not just an employer, but she considers the woman like a friend. Nadine also never looked at her status which was only an ART. Nadine appreciates Yara a lot, which makes Yara feel close to her.
"What are you cooking good, Ra." Nadine answered Yara's question, again a sad smile was on her face.
Yara approached, pulled up a chair and sat down before the woman.
"Sir, if there's a problem, tell me the same story. Usually that too, right? Why is it so much more closed lately?" ask Yara understandingly.
Without Yara guessing, Nadine just lowered her face on the table and cried there.
"Mr..." Yara stroked Nadine's shoulder which looked violently shaking. She seemed to run out of words to strengthen the woman, because she did not know what Nadine was thinking now even though Yara could guess for sure this was still about her husband.
Although from the beginning Nadine has established her heart and sincere if it will be pitted by her husband, but Yara knows and really understands that living life by sharing a husband is very difficult. Moreover, Nadine lives different countries with Lucky-husband, and now Nadine is also increasingly not returning to Singapore since Lucky married again.
Satisfied with crying, Nadine finally put on a face. He looked at Yara lekat and seemed ready to tell a story.
"You don't know, Ra .. I was lied to all this time" Nadine said with a very sad face.
"Looked?"
Nadine nodded. "At first, Lucky did not want to marry again. I think it's because he loves me and doesn't have the heart to beat me. Turns out I was wrong, instead he and Firda had already established a relationship behind me," said Nadine sobbing.
Yara is shocked by Nadine's story. It turns out that Nadine was also betrayed by two people closest to her.
"Firda is my best friend. She is also married, her husband died four months ago of a heart attack. Apparently it happened because Firda's relationship with Mas Lucky was already known by her husband. So, all this time Mas Lucky's been procrastinating on marriage with a lot of the women I've introduced apparently because he's waiting for Firda to be a widow."
"Oh my goodness, Ma'am!"
Yara speechless. Why is Nadine's fate almost similar to her fate? The difference here is Nadine loves her husband, and it must be very painful.
"At first I was this stupid, didn't know they were connected behind my back. So, when Firda is widowed and Mas Lucky intends to marry her, I agree just because Mas Lucky's reason makes sense. Poor Firda was already a widow and had no relatives. I finally approved them. Besides I know Firda, she's a good friend of mine so I think it's even better."
"So, you know who they've been in contact with for a long time - from whom?"
"From the maid who used to live in Firda's house. She hasn't worked there since Firda's husband died. Heru has indeed experienced a stroke in the past two years, so maybe that's why Firda is looking for another man to replace Heru as his partner and unfortunately it is my own husband, Ra. Her best friend's husband."
Without Yara noticing her tears coming, this time she cried because Nadine's fate was much more painful than hers.
"So, why is it that you rarely go back to Singapore?"
"Make what, Ra? I was not considered there. Two months ago I was still able to, but a while ago I heard that Firda was pregnant with Lucky's child - so all the attention was on her. I think I can still be strong, in fact I'm not that strong, Ra."
Finally Yara hugged Nadine with deep concern. I don't know why he felt so sorry for and cared about that woman.
"Will I survive a marriage like this?"
Nadine shook her head weakly. "I don't know, Ra. I love Mas Lucky. I don't want to part with him but I can't continue to be the one who isn't considered in my own household."
"Sir, the way of life is still long, you have to think about your own happiness. Don't want to stick around and stick to something like this. If you can't, it's not wrong to try to let go."
Nadine looked at old Yara. She also knows that Yara is now divorced from her husband. Although he does not know exactly the problem of Yara-because the woman is not as open as him.
"If you are alone? Why did you decide to divorce your husband?"
Yara smiled wryly. "Our fate is not much different, ma'am. But the difference is I haven't had time to love Mas Juna. He's having an affair with my sister's wife."
"What?" Nadine is shocked to hear Yara's story. "So how's your brother?" ask again.
"It just so happens that Ms. Shanum is pregnant again so Anton has not been able to divorce from her. They've only been separated from home for four months. Then, do not know what Mbak Shanum conceived it," said Yara who this time felt no need to cover anything more to Nadine because the household ulcers Nadine had already known.
Mutual storytelling turned out to make Nadine's mood improve. Finally he laughed loudly, either laughing at his stupidity or laughing at the fate that often toyed with many people. Including him and Yara.
This made her realize that no household was okay. It all depends on us who undergo and solve every problem in it.
"Tau, no! You are the same fate as me. Haha..." Nadine chuckles again. "But, you are much luckier because you do not have the feeling of curse that holds you back from continuing to be with your husband. Different from me who is stupid and even still love a man who has obviously hurt me," he explained.
Yara nodded, yes .. maybe what Nadine said was true. He was much luckier because he was able to move on and return to life well after his divorce from Juna.
"Eh, but .. By the way, who picks you up every afternoon, huh? From yesterday I'm kepo, want to know, serious!"
Yara smelled a smile. As for Sky should he also be open to Nadine?
"That's..."
"Your new boyfriend, huh?" guess Nadine.
"Exactly the old boyfriend who is stale, Ma'am."
Nadine gawks, but then they laugh together.
"So, if you're stale, do you want to be angry again? Don't you want to replace the new one?"
Once again Yara chuckled. "This one is different, the stale the more delicious, mbak," he licks while chuckling.
