"That's it, Mas. I can't follow your charade anymore. That's enough, Mas. I don't feel like I can do it anymore if I get hurt again."
That's the word my wife's mouth says. It seems that he does not trust the sincerity of my love which is only for him. The desire to explain these misunderstandings instantly faded.
I stopped, no longer pushing the door I wanted to lock. When is he like this? Did that one time mistake make him not make her distrust me?
I went back into our room tidying up all the tangles Elena made. Though I wanted to tell him after taking a bath with Nesya, but it was already first because Elena unpacked all the contents of my bag.
However, I felt very disappointed by his reaction like that. Is it just that she thinks about my sincerity that loves her so much?
"Papa, why did you lock the door again? We're eating beloms, Pa?"
This little girl I thought of as my real daughter climbed into my lap. This made me realize that I could no longer be what I was. I am no longer a single man who can act at will.
I got Elena's long hair. "Maybe I'm preparing a surprise for Papa."
"Surprise?" His face looks quite confused. "What's that surprise, Pa?"
"Surprise is like something fun, but it was kept a secret first by Ibuk." I explained. Does he understand what I say?
Elena's eyes looked overcast, like she was thinking of something. "What's Papa's birthday today?"
"Well, Elena's great? It turns out Elena knew Papa had a birthday today" I said, lying. I don't want to disappoint this little girl who is engrossed in her imagination.
"Horeeee, Elena's gonna blow out the candles, yeah, Pa." Then Elena's eyes sparkled looking for something else.
"Where's the birthday cake?"
Aaah, yes ..he was still imagining until I forgot the important thing for a birthday.
"Later if Ibuk has come out of hiding, we will buy his cake. We eat out."
Elena looked overjoyed, she inched down and immediately sprinted a little out of our room. I heard Elena knocking back on the door where Nesya shut herself. Elena's voice sounded so excited asking her mother to open the door.
I lay myself on the bed. I think, even though Nesya is still quite young, she will become more mature because she already has previous married experience.
Aah, it seems like I should give her time ..., I should not think of anything bad. I love him very much anyway.

The next morning, Nesya chose to leave for the campus separately. At first it must have made me angry, like he wanted to keep avoiding me from last night.
Good .. This time I let him go alone. However, why didn't I see Nesya at all on campus? Where the hell is he?
When I came home I didn't see him at all. Did he cancel campus? Why didn't he call me at all?
With a feeling of rage I drove the vehicle home to the shophouse. However, a shocking reality that I got from Vina. He said that Nesya had not returned since leaving the campus earlier.
"Why not together? Are you guys fighting?" ask Vina to me.
I don't think this is food for Vina or any of the other laundry employees. Without a second thought, I immediately suppressed my wife's contact. However, his phone is inactive.
"Papaaaa, where's my mom? Why don't you go home with Ibuk?"
Elena I put it in a sling. "Oh, I bought you another cake yesterday."
Elena clapped her hands happily at the prank I made. I've started to doubt this is wrong or right. What is clear is that I feel worried, and do not want to make this little girl worry.
Honey, where are you?
Until night came, Nesya had not yet come. I started to panic thinking about where he disappeared to? What the hell happened to him?
That same night I decided to find my heart's lover, Nesya. Elena was already asleep when I brought her and wanted to leave her to my parents.
"Ma, I got Elena first. I'll pick you up after I pick up my wife."
"Lhoh? Where are the nights like this?" ask my mom to panic.
"Ooh, he went looking for something. But he did not want me to be accompanied. I just want to catch up with him." I deliberately lied so as not to make other families panic and think.
"Ooh, should you take your wife anywhere? Don't leave it anywhere by yourself! Your wife is your responsibility?"
My mother's words really touched my feelings. It's my fault, I shouldn't have silenced it like that. I want to wait for the right time. But it turns out I was missteps.
I should have directly communicated all to Nesya .. my wife, I'm sorry. Where are you?
After being interrogated by Mama, I immediately went to the police. A shocking news that I got and made me not believe.
A police officer drove me to a hospital, showing a woman being bandaged for being disfigured.
"Motors, mobile phones, wallets and bags carried by him were lost by the scammers. So we're really confused where to look for this Mba's family" the police said.
"It's impossible, sir. My wife is martial arts."
