"What does this mean?!" Faisal throws a large brown envelope in front of Vani. The throws were quite fast that made all the contents inside scatter.
Vani and Bu Widia widened both eyes to see the envelope that turned out to contain ...
"Mas, this is ...?"
Vani's tongue suddenly Kelu, even to just look at the face of the man in front of him it feels like he can't. Suddenly the fear attacked him, what if Faisal arrived ...
"I'll be able to clear, Mas!"
Faisal was silent with an expressionless face. Only the roar of his breath was chasing each other, indicating how he was holding something that he really wanted to release. While Ms. Widia, the face of the woman who had already looked bad was now getting emotional, staring at sheet after sheet of photos of Vani along with foreign men.
"You!!"
Plaque!
One hard slap landed on Vani's face. The woman could only grimace, holding the pain in the wound on the corner of her lips.
"Mom, Vani can clear up!" vani told the middle-aged woman.
"What do you want to clear, huhh! What all this time the money my son gave me was less, until you prostituted yourself?!"
Vani stuttered at him. It was more painful than the slap he had received.
If asked less? Yes, it was very lacking for his needs with Faisal for a month. For that Vani must slam his own bones in order to cover up his shortcomings.
"A–aku only works, Mom. I work to cover the monthly lack of money that Mas Faisal loves me with," said Vani honestly.
"By racing* yourself like this?!"
The photos were Bu Widia threw again on Vani's face.
"Jawab, Van?! You're mute!!" shouted Bu Widia echoed on the porch of the house.
"No, Mom." Vani shook his head slowly. Her tears fell as soon as she heard the vile accusation from her own mother-in-law.
This is not what Vani wanted. He didn't mean to cheat, it was just the circumstances that made him like this.
"Look, you still want to defend your household with such a rich woman?!" Widia turned to her son.
The man was still silent without a word.
"Even just now he dared to snap at mom! And now, he's cheating on you!"
"I've never done anything, Mom. Please believe me." Vani approaches Faisal and tries to explain.
"Alahhhh alesn to you! Don't let him sleep with that guy, son."
"Yes ...!!"
Vani really does not accept being accused to that extent. He was wrong to have betrayed his marriage to Faisal. But really, between him and Renan not to do more, they just hugged.
"Mas, you believe me, it's the same with me." Vani grabs Faisal's hand, but the man suddenly brushes him off very roughly.
"Don't touch me! I'm disgusted to see you, Van!"
Duarrr
Vani took a few steps back to hear Faisal. What was that, disgusted? So what about him who has often been alone with his girlfriend?
"Mas ...?"
"I didn't expect you to betray me, Van! Is this in return for all that I love you?!" revealed again. Faisal lowered his head to regulate the roar of his breathing that was still rising and falling.
Lucky around the house they look lonely, hopefully there will be no neighbors who hear it.
"Just divorce, son. Why do you still survive with such a rich woman? I'm barren, uh now cheating again!!"
"It's not what I thought!"
"What do you mean?! Still want to avoid when clearly already caught cheating?!"
"I'm not barren, Mom!" elak Vani firmly. She thought maybe it was time for her mother-in-law to know the true state of their household.
"Then, what's the name if it's not barren?!"
"Yes ...!!" Suddenly Faisal made a sound. The man only fears Vani until he loses control and tells the truth.
"Udah, hell, son. Why are you still fighting him!"
"I'm not barren, Mom. Ta–tapi ..."
"Enough, Van!"
However, Faisal did not want his mother to be disappointed. As much as possible he would keep that secret tight. Faisal did not want to break his mother's hope to immediately pet the grandchild.
"But, I need to know, Mom. I don't want to be accused of being barren!"
"Enough! I said enough, Van!" shouted Faisal loudly.
Vani stared at the man standing in front of her. So, is this the purpose of Faisal's silence all this time? He deliberately wanted to scapegoat himself to cover up his own shortcomings.
"You also need to get out of that job!" Faisal stepped quickly to leave Vani after saying his last words.
.

.
Vani and Faisal's domestic relationship was completely strained after the quarrel. Vani is forced to quit his job because Faisal had threatened to expel him if Vani is still found to be in contact with the man again.
Of course Vani was so scared, where would he go if Faisal really threw him away?
Back to the hometown?
Vani is too shy to show her face, especially if it is up to her status that will turn into a widow.
Until finally Vani can only resign, accept whatever Faisal decides even though he himself will be confused from where he gets additional money to cover his shortcomings later.
"What, Bik? Vani resigned?!" rework Renan for the second time. Renan thought that Vani did not enter these days because the woman was sick, but it turned out that the shocking news even received Renan.
"Bibik also does not know why Neng Vani suddenly came out. Did he not let you go with me first?" Bik Minah also does not know what is the reason Vani quit his job.
Renan nodded slowly. Even two days ago Vani's attitude was still ordinary. His monthly salary until now he has not been able to give.
Is it possible that now the money that her husband gave her was enough to meet the needs of her life? Until Vani decided to give up his job as a cleaner? that was what had been circling around in Renan's head.
But why is this so unfair? When the feeling began to bloom, why did the drought suddenly drop?
"Sir is okay, right?" Bik Minah realized Renan who suddenly silenced after hearing the news about Vani. The man's face changed, as if something had suddenly disappeared from his life.
"I'm okay, Bik. It's just ...." Renan could not explain, what exactly was this feeling? Why is it so hard to take it off?
"Preferably you do not interfere too much with the affairs of the household Neng Vani. Fear that there will be people who understand the same," said Bik Minah to the man in front of her.
"But, Bik, how about Vani ...?"
"Trust me, Sir. Everything must be fine." Bik Minah asserted once again.
But Renan still can't. He cannot be silent before he knows what exactly is the problem that is happening to Vani.
"Whatever way I gotta find out about Vani, gotta!" renan said inwardly with great steadiness.
