"Sir!" Call Sita to the driver who is focused on driving.
"Yes, Miss!"
"Do you know Dyrtha's house?" Ask Sita whose hands are still rubbing the head of Angga who is now sleeping on her lap. It seems Angga is still sleepy, so the boy slept again after the car drove away from the Hadinata residence.
"That's Mr Dyrtha, the nephew of the Lord and Lady?" Ask the driver to make sure.
"Yes, that one. Do you know his home address?" Sita asked once more.
"Know, Miss!" Answer the driver sure.
"Can you come by for a minute?" Pinta Sita is directly asserted by the driver.
"Ready, Miss!"

Sita got off on her own because Angga was still sleeping in the car. Now the woman stared at the towering wooden door in front of her. Sita pressed the bell beside the door after brushing aside all the doubt in her heart. It's rude to actually visit people's house early in the morning, but Sita has no choice and Sita just wants to talk to Dyrtha who became the originator of a silly idea that eventually complicated Sita's relationship, Robert, and Sita, and Robert's parents.
Sita pressed the bell once more, before then the door was opened from inside by a woman who seemed to be the same age as Sita. Is this Dyrtha's wife?
"Sita?" Ask the woman to make sure.
"You're Sita, Robert's wife, right?" Ask once more.
"Yes. You you?"
"I'm Mizty, Dyrtha's wife. We've never met her like but I've seen your picture" explained Mizty as he reached out and asked Sita to get acquainted.
"Yes, sorry for not recognizing you" Sita returned Mizty's handshake.
"Let's go in! You alone? Where's Robert and Angga?" Cecar Mizty while inviting Sita to go inside, then sit on the living room sofa. Dyrtha house is not as big as Robert's house, but still equally luxurious, because it seems they are indeed a clan of rich people.
"They're in the car. Still sleeping, so I put it in the driver's pack" explained Sita a little hesitant.
"What's going on here?" Ask Mizty next full search.
"I want to talk to Dyrtha. Is he awake?" Ask Sita a little doubt.
"Yes, he's still working out in the back. I'll call you," replied Mizty, rising to his feet and looking a little strangely at Sita.
Not long after, after Mizty went inside, Dyrtha came out to meet Sita with a gaze that was as strange as Mizty earlier. Really compact husband and wife!
"What's going on here early in the morning?" Ask Dyrtha wonder.
And don't ask about the man's tone. Definitely as cynical and dismissive as ever.
Ah, but Sita is common!
"Me and Angga are going home this morning and back to the life we were meant to be."
"meaning?" Dyrtha interrupted quickly.
"I'm going back to my parents' second house." Sita clarified her sentence.
"You're gonna ask Robert for a divorce, are you? Not very grateful for you!"
"It's good Robert wants to marry you, save you from a case that could have thrown you in jail, admitting the real Angga was the son of your bastard husband as his son to have you accepted by Robert's parents. Then why do you want to leave now?" Dyrtha's cross that really makes Sita want to ride the apoplexy.
"Master and Lady Hadinata knew that Angga was not Robert's son!" Sita said firmly and straightforwardly, which immediately made Dyrtha shocked.
"You messed up everything?" Dyrtha stared in disbelief at Sita.
"Why you-"
"I just don't want to live a life full of lies!" Sergeh Sita cut Dyrtha's sentence.
"You're gonna ruin Robert's relationship with his parents again!"
"I've spoken to Mrs Indri" Sita once again.
"And I don't think there's gonna be any more misunderstanding between Robert and his parents." Sita again.
"But for example Robert again quarreled with Mr and Mrs Hadinata, please do your threat at that time to Robert about you wanting to throw me in jail and reopen the Akshara case!" Said Sita who returned to make Dyrtha shocked.
"Robert told you?"
"Yes!" Answer Sita quickly.
"Isn't that why Robert finally married me? Not because he loves me, but because of your coercion and threats!" Imbuh Sita again.
"That's not true!" Dyrtha's rebut fast.
"You're pregnant with Robert's son"
"Yes, that's another reason," Sita cut Dyrtha's sentence once again.
"But now I'm no longer pregnant with Robert's child, so I think Robert's responsibilities are done here." Sita was breathing out violently.
"You can't just leave, Sita! You're still Robert's legal wife!" Dyrtha warned.
"Status only." Sita again sighed harshly, then got up to her feet.
"What does that mean by 'status only'? You think it's a marriage charade," Dyrtha stared in disbelief at Sita.
"Isn't this all the charade you've been putting on for Robert to make up with his parents again?" Sita replied, smiling wryly.
"Robert just loves Sheila!" Say Sita firmly.
"Sheila is dead! Your jealousy is ridiculous, Sita!" Dyrtha said cynically.
"But Robert still loves her, because Sheila is Robert's world! Sheila is everything to Robert!" Sergey Sita was full of emotion.
"You're just being emotional and jealous" guessed Dyrtha again pretentiously.
"I'm not jealous! I'll go now!" Pungkas Sita while out of the house Dyrtha.
"All right! Go away for a while and Robert will pick you up!"
"My advice is, don't be so hot-selling, if Robert picks you up and asks you to come back with him!" Dyrtha exclaimed at Sita who had gotten into the car. Not long after, the black car had driven away from Dyrtha's house.
"You stopped but instead reported here. Fucking woman!" Dyrtha muttered before the man entered his house.
****
Robert was still stunned after Dyrtha told him at length about what Sita said at her house this morning.
"You're going to catch up with that woman and persuade her to come back?" Ask Dyrtha pretentiously.
"Sita said that I always muttered Sheila's name when I slept. That must have made Sita think that I still haven't moved on from Sheila," muttered Robert who was not at all connected with Dyrtha's question.
"Are you really muttering Sheila's name while sleeping with Sita?" Dyrtha asked in disbelief.
"Where do I know? I've only been dreaming about Sheila lately because I saw Sita being accepted by Mami and Papi while Sheila wasn't." Robert answered while leaning his back against the back of the work chair. Robert turned the chair around and threw his gaze at the window behind him.
"You're still thinking Sheila meant all along. That's why you had a dream about your late wife and unconsciously muttered her name while sleeping" Dyrtha began to theorize.
"I'm just sorry for my stupidity that didn't listen to Sheila's words!"
"When Sheila was pregnant, she persuaded me to go home and tell mami and papi-"
"Wait on! Sheila's pregnant?" Dyrtha interrupted Robert's sentence.
"Yes, did I not tell you that when the accident happened, Sheila was pregnant with our future child. But they both didn't survive," Robert's countenance had changed.
"Sheila once told me that later after our son was born, Sheila wanted to take him to meet Mami and Papi, because Sheila was sure that even though Mami and Papi hated Sheila, she wanted to take him to her, they won't hate their grandchildren."
"Unfortunately Sheila had left with our son-in-law before her wish was realized." Robert wiped away his tears.
"You didn't tell Aunty and Uncle all that?" Dyrtha asked as she patted Robert on the back. Dyrtha's cousin just shook his head.
"Aunty once told me that she dreamed of holding a cute adorable grandson. Then he wondered if Robert had a son."
"You have to tell Uncle and Aunty Robert everything!"
"Sheila will never live again, but if Uncle and Aunty no longer hate her and accept Sheila as their daughter-in-law, you won't be too burdened anymore either and bear the guilt of Sheila!" Dyrtha wise advice.
"Then you can refocus your relationship with Sita."
"Because if your heart is still filled with guilt for Sheila, you will continue to dream of her and mention her name while sleeping! And not just Sita, but any woman who sleeps with you will definitely feel illfeel!" Dyrtha continued at length.
"Are you defending Sita now? I guess you don't like him very much." Robert asked slightly insinuating Dyrtha.
"Indeed! He is actually not very suitable to be your partner because his appearance is too simple. But because aunty and uncle seem to like Sita very much and accept the simple woman as her daughter-in-law, so what can I do?"
"After all, can't appearances still be improved and refined?" Continue Dyrtha again who immediately received a fist prize from Robert.
"The simplicity makes Sita different!" It was Robert who immediately made Dyrtha whistle.
"That means you're actually in love with Sita, right?" Temptation Dyrtha while raising his eyebrows.
"I couldn't have married her if I hadn't fallen in love with her!" It was Sergey Robert who finally made a confession.
"I thought it was just a marriage charade," kekeh Dyrtha who instantly made Robert snort.
"I'll catch up with him"
"Hey! Don't try to run away before your work is done!" Dyrtha restrains Robert who is about to leave.
"Suckers! Can't you replace me?" Sergey Robert emotion.
"Yes! But you also need to talk to Aunty and Uncle about Sheila!"
"You don't want Sita to get angry anymore because you're still mumbling Sheila's name when you guys make love later, right?" Dyrtha warned the cousin.
"You're right!" Robert was not angry.
"I'll finish the job two days later today then, then I'll talk to Mami and Papi later tonight, and tomorrow I'll catch up with Sita."
"Maybe he also still need time to calm down," said Robert who can finally think clearly.
"Great plan!" Dyrtha patted Robert on the back, and the two men continued to struggle with work.
