I'm Your Widow Duda
WHAT IS THE CONNECTION?

"Mr!" Shouted Sita when he saw Pak Alwi who was being carried by the neighbors into the car of one of Sita's neighbors.

"Mom! Father why?" Ask Sita who has rushed to Bu Tutik whose eyes are already glazed.

"So you fell in the bathroom, Sit!" Clearly, Bu Tutik who immediately broke his cry. Sita immediately hugged her foster mother.

"Father was immediately unconscious." Stammered, Bu Tutik continued his story.

"We'll take you to the hospital first, Mom! You must be okay!" Said Sita trying to calm Tutik Bu. After Mr. Alwi was carried into the car, Dita, Bu Tutik, and Angga entered the car. The prayerful speech was incessantly spoken from his third mouth, hoping that Mr. Alwi was not seriously injured and could return to health.

"So, what's the connection between you and Sita?" Liam asked as if he was interrogating Robert.

Robert had even just arrived at the office and had not told anything, but Liamakah already knew everything from Lady Yumi Arishta who was other than Liam Halley's wife, also occupying a position as an informant who will report anything Liam needs to know.

Strange couple!

"There's nothing! I even just found out that the name of Angga's mother was Sita," replied Robert who even made Liam cluck.

"So all this time?"

"Sorry, is that a question?" Robert asked confirm and Liam clucked back.

"Yes, that's a question sentence! Is it still unclear?" Liam grumbled at Robert.

"But there's no question in that sentence-"

"We're not studying language and literature, Rob! Just answer about your relationship with Sita!" Liam's getting pissed now.

"What do I have to answer? All this time I only knew Angga and had nothing to do with Sita," replied Robert bluntly.

"All right! You've known Angga for a long time?" Liam changed the question.

"It was only a few months when Angga threw a ball into your yard, and I happened to be standing there, and then the ball hit my head-"

"And you fainted!" Guess Liam's telling Robert's story.

"I'm not that weak, man!" Sergey Robert did not accept it and Liam even laughed out loud.

Basic crazy!

"You're scolding Angga for hitting your head with a ball?" Ask Liam getting pockmarked.

"I'm not all you're gonna scold Fairel when the boy scatters his legon on the floor, then you step on one of the legos, and you're in pain. Then after that you will immediately nag from sabang to merauke on Fairel and the ending does not need me to continue." Robert replied at length times the height that seemed to have been memorized once.

"A complete description! Did Fairel tell you that in person?" Guess Liam who immediately made Robert nod.

"I like kids!" Robert answered quickly.

Yeah, that one is no doubt about it. Robert does like and is easy to get close to children especially boys. Fairel, Keano, Sebastian, Sakya, and the Azzaryan. Everything will go straight to Robert as they all gather into a crushing army at Halley's residence. Not to mention Gavin and Ezra! Destroyed is Mom's house and Dad beats a broken ship.

"Another reason?" Liam looked at Robert full of probing.

"There's no other reason!" Robert replied firmly.

"Aren't you interested in being Angga's dad? Based on information from Yumi, Sita is a single parent," asked Liam after looking at the screen of his phone. I don't know how many reports Yumi told Liam.

Robert did not answer and only sniffed his shoulders. The man had already turned around and was about to walk out of Liam's room, when then Liam blurted out a sentence.

"There's no harm in you starting to open your heart, Rob! Sheila and your son are already happy in heaven and stop blaming yourself!"

Robert stopped his steps and just silently listened to Liam. The man did not look and did not respond.

Some people may easily forget someone who has been gone forever. But not with Robert who until now still has not found the direction of his life after the departure of Sheila three years ago.

Robert was still silent and the man finally continued his steps to get out of Liam's room. Robert walked into his own room, closed the door, sat down in a chair and stared at the photo of him always on his desk.

A woman with a wide smile, thin reddish hair and a beach dress that waved in the wind.

"Honey, I'm in front of the clinic," reported Robert who was routinely picked up Sheila who works as a nurse at a clinic. Robert's wife is six months pregnant.

"Yes, I saw your car. I'm across the street buying ice."

"I'm after-"

"No need! It's already finished. Stay there, I'll cross over!"

Only a few seconds Sheila hung up the phone when then a loud bang was heard from outside Robert's car. People immediately ran and surrounded a pregnant woman who was now lying covered in blood on the asphalt. Robert froze in place and his world suddenly collapsed.

"Sheila!"
