Give me back my husband's smile
CHAPTER 103: The Sadness of the Stars

Alvaro sat pensively in the living room of his apartment, for three days he had not come home. The star repeatedly asked him the news, almost every minute Alvaro's phone rang because his young wife called and sent him spam messages. Alvaro has explained that the next week he is taking care of his work outside the city, Alvaro is deliberately lying to fool the Stars. The young man needed some time alone to calm down, lately his mind was confused thinking about the Moon. So far he has not given up on maintaining his marriage, let alone seeing Elfarez aggressively approaching his wife, making Alvaro more determined to force the Moon back into his arms again. He would not be willing to let his first wife fall into the hands of Elfarez, because the Moon was his.

Alvaro touched his chin and rubbed the corner of his lips that still felt pain, he so remembered the incident in the court office where Farez beat him to a battered sprawl. The bruises on his body have not even healed. The bruises were visible on his blue cheeks, but all this pain was nothing to Alvaro. The young man's hands were clenched firmly, honestly there was a feeling of fear in Alvaro's mind because next week he was going to have a divorce hearing. Alvaro had filed for mediation a second time, but was rejected. He was starting to get angry, apparently the lawyer hired by his in-laws was quite good. Alvaro can't undermine them anymore, whatever he'll do to win the trial next week.

.trings.

Alvaro's mobile phone rang, the young man was seen massaging his temple head while exhaling a rough breath. He could guess who was calling him. Alvaro took his phone on the table. He picked up the call, listened to someone from there to talk.

"Hallo, hello Brother Al. You finally got my phone call. Brother where is it? Is Al going home today?" Asked the Star from there, the woman sounded enthusiastic hoping her husband would come home tonight.

"Bi, didn't I tell you, I'm still in Bali to take care of my business." Kilah Alvaro lied because he didn't want the Stars to ask him questions. His head was currently throbbing dizzy, let alone the Star always calling him just to ask when he came home making Alvaro feel careless.

The star covered her lips, and she really missed her husband. Only 3 days left but the Star could not resist to meet Alvaro immediately. She was worried, The stars could not be far from her husband. She's easily agitated, probably because of her pregnancy hormones.

"So can't you go home for me, ah not my max for our son." The Star said, in this way Alvaro will probably obey. "Sister, is your job more important than our son's."

Alvaro momentarily closed his eyes, his chest rumbling withstanding the irritated feeling in his face. The star continued to whine, the woman urged him as if she had not made room for Alvaro. His wife was really spoiled, maybe all this time he had always treated her too patiently that the Stars had always depended on her. The young man opened his eyes, trying to hold back his emotions so that he would not utter a sentence that could hurt his wife's feelings.

“Bi didn't I tell you that I'm currently in Bali for a week to take care of business. You should have understood that I was busy, but you instead inhibited it by telling me to go home.” Shake Alvaro in a slightly harsh tone for his wife to be self-conscious.

The star frowned, she was pinched with the words of her husband just now. Honestly, Bintang was offended by the words of Alvaro who considered himself as an obstacle in the young man's life. “So I'm alone, the situation here is not safe and you can leave me.” Reply Star began to shed tears, she did not think about her husband.

Alvaro rubbed his face in anger. “Bi you are in my parents house, there is my mom and my sister who will take care of you. So what are you worried about?!”

The star gawked at her husband's reply. It's true that he's in his parents-in-law's house right now, but isn't Alvaro worried about his condition? There's a criminal out there still running around terrorizing him. Even many people who want to hurt him, if something bad happens with him and the baby who is in the womb, Alvaro will be sorry.

"Sister but-."

On the other hand, more precisely at the Mahendra family residence, the middle star sat pensively on the living room sofa. She rubbed her tears that flowed down her cheeks, only this time she felt heartache with the words of her husband. The young man was more concerned with work than thinking about himself and his baby. Since the terror incident that struck him, Alvaro led Bintang to live in the house of Alvaro's parents because he did not have the heart to let his wife be home alone. Although Alvaro's parents are Mama Clara and Tiara, Bintang still feels lonely in the absence of her husband. Alvaro should be aware that if a pregnant woman is very sensitive, she wants to always be close to her husband.

“Star.” The soft voice of a woman instantly made the Star turn her head, she looked down at Mama Clara who was walking over to her. The middle-aged woman was sitting next to the son-in-law, she gently rubbed the mane of the Star's hair affectionately. “Why Bi? Why are you sad?” Clara asked worried about Bintang, the middle-aged woman could see the deep tears in her eyes.

“Hiks...hiks, ma I miss Al. Ta-but he can't go home.” The words of the Star crying a hiccup made Clara also sad. To be honest, Clara was currently feeling troubled thinking about her son's problems. The gossip reports that her son was outrageous, the good names of Mahendra and Bramasta's family are at stake.

Clara admits that her son married two women, but all this time Clara knew that her son was being fair to his wife. Alvaro is responsible for meeting the needs for both the Star and the Moon. Rumors have cornered Bintang, all the media blaspheming Bintang as an actor who has damaged the Moon and Alvaro household relations. Though it is not entirely true, according to Clara they do not have the right to blame the Stars. All have already been, rice has become porridge especially when the star is pregnant with her grandson.

Alvaro loved the Stars very much, even before his marriage to the Moon was held they had been in a relationship. Clara knew that Moon forced her son to marry her, therefore Alvaro was forced to marry Moon on a kasian basis.

His son's marriage to the Moon did not go smoothly because Alvaro was still in the shadow of the Star. Actually Clara had advised Alvaro to forget the Stars and start a happy life together with the Moon. But the truth is Clara heard some pretty shocking news about the Star pregnancy. Her son invites disaster by marrying Bintang, but at that time Clara is convinced that her son will definitely be able to solve this problem. Now who's wrong? The marriage of his son became complicated with the news of bad rumors that were addressed to him, their family's good name is now underestimated.

Clara hugged the body of the Star, she tried to calm her daughter-in-law down. "Calm the Stars, Alvaro will definitely be home soon. Mama's gonna call her to come here." Clara said that if Bintang continues to be sad and depressed Clara is afraid to affect the baby who is in the Star womb.

God, why did his son leave when his wife needed him. The moon chose to back down, their divorce just counting the days. Now only the faithful Star survives with her son. It would be better for Alvaro to pay attention to the Star, at this time only Bintarhlah is always at his son's side. Inner Clara felt sliced.

The star was still crying in Clara's arms. "Of course, calm down the stars. Mama's gonna tell Al to come home soon." Clara softly replied to a nod by the Star. She really wanted to meet her husband at this time. Mama Clara's words a little make Bintang feel relieved, she is grateful to have a mother-in-law who is considerate like Mama Clara.

Clara then unraveled her embrace, she gave a smile looking at her beautiful daughter-in-law. Her soft hand rubbed the dripping clear liquid on her cheek. “Don't cry Stars, my grandson doesn't want to see his mother grieve.” Clara said as she stroked the large belly of the young woman in front of her. The star smiled, she was training with her good attitude in-laws.

“Mama promise yes please persuade brother Alvaro to go home.” The star clasped Clara's hand and pleaded for her help, hoping that if Mama Clara spoke to Alvaro, the young man would comply.

“Iya darling.” The star was happy to hear it, although the crowd hated it yet at least her in-laws still sided with her.
