These past few days Tom always comes home late at night. Tom did it because he wanted to avoid Alula who always demanded to ask for a divorce. So, Tom busies himself with work and work.
As of this moment, Tom had only arrived at the apartment when the clockwork showed the number twelve. Tom saw Alula was asleep. Tom stepped slowly towards the bathroom so as not to disturb the wife's sleep. Finished cleaning up, Tom then headed to the kitchen. Tom smiled at the food on the table. Alula keeps feeding her even though she gets angry and asks for a divorce. Tom still ate the food even if only a little. His love for his wife makes the cold food still taste good.
In the morning when Alula woke up, she did not find Tom in the room or in any other room in this apartment.
"Surely she has left for work." muttered Alula who was beginning to know her husband's new habits. Go early in the morning and go home late at night. And by noon Tom won't be coming home for lunch.
At ten in the morning Alula rushed to the hospital. Just got a call from Tiara saying that Rumi's mother was taken back to the hospital.
"Tiara, how's mom doing ?" asked Alula who had just arrived in front of the ICU room with a breath of excitement.
"Calm down, sit down." Not Tiara who answered, but Hadi.
Yes, Hadi was also there along with Tiara. He's the one who took Rumi's mother to the hospital. I just got back from the hotel where I work. He stopped by the orphanage to deliver breakfast to the children. Upon arriving at Hadi's home, he saw Tiara and the other children crying. Tiara said that Rumi's mother was not aware even though she and Dian had called many times and even they had also shaken Rumi's mother's body.
"Drink first brother." Tiara handed Alula a bottle of mineral water.
"Lula, let's go eat." Hadi's voice diverted Alula's mind.
"I'm not hungry" said Alula listless because of the weight of the burden and the problems she faces today.
"But you still have to eat Lula" Hadi insisted because it was past lunchtime.
"For what reason would you take care of me if you were sick too" the man continued.
Finally Alula according to what Hadi said. They went to a restaurant not far from the hospital. Tom who happens to want to pick up Sky at the hospital accidentally sees Alula along with a man entering the restaurant that looks simple. Tom could not see the face of the man who was with Alula because his car had already driven forward. Tom wanted to stop his car, but the vehicle behind him had already sounded a deafening horn.
If Tom had not rushed to deliver Sky, he would have stopped and entered the restaurant, bringing Alula home and beating the man with his wife. Tom grabbed the steering wheel of the car because he was upset he couldn't do that.
Twenty minutes later, Tom had delivered Sky home. He then drove his car back to the place where he saw Alula. Alula was no longer there. Alula and Hadi left ten minutes ago.
"Dam."
