Just My Ex Husband
Part 42 - Who is that woman?

"Ah there's ante Meymey Pih."

After hearing Clarisa's voice calling Meymey's aunt suddenly Jenny turned to the back of her body. Jenny looked at the figure of a middle-aged woman whose age was not much different from Verlita, beside the middle-aged woman was a beautiful woman who was younger than Jenny. Can Jenny make sure that woman is what Clarisa meant by calling 'Ante Meymey'. Her face was beautifully groomed with an elegant appearance wrapped in a brown mini dress. Her long hair was deliberately ponytailed, revealing her tiered neck.

"Arjuna, please lift your head off my shoulder."

Whisper Jenny on her boyfriend. Jenny felt bad for the two women who had just arrived, while Arjuna still remained indifferent with his powerful attitude on Jenny's shoulder.

"It's pewe dear."

Babe Arjuna still did not lift his head from Jenny's shoulder. Anxious with Arjuna's behavior, Jenny decides to pinch Arjuna.

"Ouch! Sick baby."

Arjuna was grimacing in pain from Jenny. Clarisa who witnessed her papih screaming in pain actually laughed.

"Eh, there's Mama Alya turns out."

Arjuna only realized that behind him was the figure of his mother-in-law first. Alya's face was slightly flushed red watching Arjuna's interaction with Jenny. Many questions Alya wants to ask Arjuna or Verlita.

Arjuna got up from the sofa, walked over to Alya, shook Alya's hand and kissed her. Even though Claudia is gone, Arjuna is still polite to his mother-in-law.

"Looks like we should talk to Verlita seriously."

Alya starts to get emotional, seeing Jenny's presence.

"Of course Alya."

Verlita got up from the sofa, then took Alya to the living room, so they were more free.

Jenny did not understand the situation that was happening tonight, her eyes twinkle asking Arjuna to explain what was going on.

"Clarisa, play with Aunt Meymey."

Meyriska, who feels like the third person among them, prefers to step down, invites Clarisa to play with him. Leave room for Arjuna to explain what really happened between Alya and Verlita.

"Dad Ante. Let's go to Clarisa's room just ante."

Princess Arjuna has always been good at reading situations. Then Clarisa leaves her papih with Jenny.

"Who is Ver?"

Alya looks furious to see Arjuna who is so friendly to Jenny, but Verlita tries to stay calm against Alya. According to Verlita, it is natural that Alya does not like Jenny, it could be excessive jealousy that is unable to accept that her child is gone. Or it could be jealous because Alya wants to match Meyriska with Arjuna.

"Wife candidate Arjuna."

Verlita answered lightly. At once Alya also jumped to hear Verlita's statement.

"Why didn't you tell Verlita?"

Besan Verlita was disappointed in him.

"Sorry Al, I just found out yesterday. Arjuna told me last night. After you came to ask Arjuna to match Meyriska."

Alya sighed deeply, there was a feeling of disappointment implied from the look in her eyes.

"Looks like your son loves that woman a lot."

"Jenny name. Just call her Jenny Al."

Verlita doesn't like to hear Alya is exiling Jenny. Calling Jenny by calling 'that woman'.

"Whatever her name is doesn't matter to me, Verlita."

It was expected by Verlita, that Alya would behave like that.

"We've been friends for a long time. Is your mindset this narrow? To tie the family between us."

Arjuna's marriage to Claudia began with an arranged marriage. At first Alya's family also asked Verlita's family, it's just that Arjuna put his heart on Claudia. Which man could not stand a talented beautiful woman like Claudia.

"I still don't want to see Arjuna with another woman."

"Alya, I'm begging you just this time. Sorry if your intention to match Arjuna with Meyriska cannot be accepted. Can't love be forced?"

Verlita. Hoping that the iron will understand Arjuna's situation now, the woman will remain silent.

"Arjuna has found the moorings of his heart now, to be able to continue his future. Likewise with Clarisa who is very accepting of Jenny's presence. As parents, aren't we happy to see our children happy?"

Verlita was still trying to be patient in front of Alya, not wanting to be emotionally involved.

"Then what about my promise to Meyriska?"

Alya had promised her niece that she had thought of as her own child after Claudia's death, that she really wanted to unite Meyriska with Arjuna.

"I think without further explanation, the situation you saw with Meyriska earlier, has answered everything."

Verlita's point is the situation when Arjuna makes out on Jenny's shoulder.

"Since when did your son know him Ver?"

Alya tries to pry deeper information about Arjuna's relationship with Jenny.

"I hope you won't have any prejudice against Arjuna or Jenny, once I answer."

Alya jumped to hear Verlita's words.

"You mean Arjuna has been in a relationship with Jenny for a long time? Don't be long before Claudia dies."

Alya seemed to understand what Verlita meant.

"Juna met Jenny about a week after your daughter's death. As a result of the meeting, Arjuna now has a son from Jenny's womb. That's my reason for supporting them to unite. I don't want my granddaughter to live with my stepfather, I hope you can understand Al."

Verlita's decision was so wise, being able to imagine Cleo's future if it wasn't with her real father.

"I don't think at all that your son is that cruel. Just one week of losing a wife is already looking for a cheap woman like Jenny."

Hearing Alya say Jenny is a cheap woman, suddenly Verlita's blood rate is like boiling. Verlita does not accept that Jenny is said to be cheap, because Alya does not know exactly what happened.

"Quite Alya! The reality is not that bad. It's all happening out of their own control."

"Then what really happened to Verlita?"

Alya did not want to lose emotions.

"It's free if I explain it to you Al. Better now you and Meyriska go home."

As a result of being too emotional to hear Alya's words that harass Jenny, Verlita unconsciously drives Alya away.

"Well Verlita, I'm home. I'm so disappointed in you."

Reveal Alya, then get up from her seat. Both of Alya's eyeballs were looking for Meyriska.

"May! Let's go home!"

Alya's shout just made Jenny and Arjuna shocked. The two of them immediately headed to the living room, where Alya and Verlita were.

"Mamah Alya why yell mah?"

Ask Arjuna when he arrives in the living room.

"You're disappointed with Juna."

Alya insists on her disappointment, while Jenny is only able to stand beside Arjuna by harboring a lot of fear towards Alya.

"You may be disappointed in me, but never blame Jenny. Because Arjuna chose Jenny to be Arjuna's life partner."

Whether to be happy or sad Jenny's heart at the moment, defended completely by Arjuna. While Alya was increasingly furious to hear Arjuna's confession. Not yet Alya answered, suddenly Meyriska appeared. Alya soon departs from Verlita's house by pulling Meyriska's arm so violently, like venting her emotions on Meyriska.
