All the way home, Via kept silent by looking to the side. It felt like there was no more spirit in him, even to breathe it was very difficult.
"Vi, are you okay?" Riani tries to get Via to talk, even though she doesn't know what to say.
"I'm not okay, Rin! My heart really hurts, and I wonder why Mas Mahen did all this to me!"
Riani immediately clasped the hand of Via who had returned to crying, she knew very well how devastated the woman felt at this time.
"Vi, whatever happens to you. I'll always be here, I'll always be standing next to you!"
Via raised his head and looked towards Riani, he then smiled thinly while nodding his head.
"i know, Rin! I am grateful to have a friend like you, and I always pray to God that happiness will always be with you!"
"Aamiin, God will surely grant a do'a from a sholeha woman like you, Vi! And of course He will also give happiness to every obedient servant!"
Via nodded his head again, he then leaned his body with both eyes closed.
"O Allah, You know all things. You who have outlined destiny for the despicable servant, and all the trials that have come have become my destiny line. But I beg you, O God! Please give me strength, give me a speck of light in my every dark. And give me a way out of every problem, I am powerless without Your help, O God!"
Tears become a silent witness how the heart of a wife who has been betrayed, the body of the soul he gave to his beloved husband. But his fate is very poor. His love was lying, and his loyalty ended in injury.
A while later, their car had already arrived in front of Riani's shop. Via decided to go straight home after dropping off his best friend, and he stopped by his parents' house to pick up the princess.
"Mama!"
Yara immediately ran when she saw her mother get out of the car, and Via hugged her daughter tightly.
"Mama misses Yara!"
The little girl rounded her cheeks that were already round as if she was thinking. "Mama, yala also miss Mama!"
Via's embrace strengthened with tears falling, she recalled what her husband had done. Her heart ached when she thought of the fate of Yara, her little daughter whom she loved so much.
"Mama, yala can't breathe!"
Via flinched in shock and instantly let go of his embrace. "I-I'm sorry Mama, honey! Mom didn't intentionally." He immediately panicked and checked whether his daughter was injured or not.
Yara blinked her eyes a few times when she saw what Mama was doing, her forehead shrinking when she saw the tears on her face.
Via, who was busy examining her daughter's body, was suddenly silent when Yara's little hand rubbed her face, her eyes glazed back to see the princess's clear round eyes.
"Mama, yala don't papa. Why is Mama crying?"
Via immediately grasped Yara's hand and kissed her, with all his might holding back the tears that had wanted to come back out. "Mama is crying because she misses Yara so much!"
The little girl smiled broadly, her dimples popping out because of the smile she was doing.
"Via, why are you outside?"
Suddenly a middle-aged woman approached them making Via instantly stand up. "From now on, I'm not in and out!"
"loh, I thought you were coming home waiting to be picked up by Mahen!" exclaim Novi Mother, of course her speech makes Via back again.
"Mas Mahen is doing some important work, ma'am! I don't want to make it bother!"
Novi's mother nodded her head. "Well, what happened to you, son? Why are your eyes so big?" He realized that his daughter's face was crying.
"Oh this, I-this this was a sad movie, ma'am!" Via was forced to lie to her mother to cover everything up, there was no way she could tell about her husband's affair with another woman.
"You're not lying, are you, son?" Novi's mother squinted her eyes in disbelief.
"No ma'am, why did Via lie to Mom!"
The middle-aged woman heaved a heavy sigh. "If there's anything, you should tell me about it!"
Via nodded his head. "That's for sure Mom!" He gave two thumbs to her.
"Vi, you want to go home?" Suddenly Chandra's father came out of the house and walked up to them.
"Yes Dad, it'll be last night!" Via immediately crucified the hand of the Father and all went home.
"Oh, then I'm asking for money!"
Novi's mother immediately turned her gaze towards the husband. "Money? Didn't you just ask Mahen for money a week ago?"
This time it was Via who was surprised to hear his mother's words. "Dad asked for money with Mas Mahen? What's for?" Her husband never told her this.
"Dad, I have business with my friend Dad!" Chandra's father turned his face away.
"It's not that every month I've been given the same money Mas Mahen, why do you ask again?" Via was really upset, he didn't like it because his parents asked for money. It's just that she feels bad about her husband's family, if they know any of this.
"i told you for business, where's enough money Mahen gave me back then!" he said it sharply. "Hurry up, you still need this money!"
Via exhaled violently, he then opened his wallet and took out three pieces of fiber money. "I can only do this, Dad! I hope you don't ask for money with Mas Mahen!" he gave the money to his father.
"Hem!" Chandra's father just cleared his throat and immediately turned away from the place.
Novi's mother felt sad, since the first husband never changed and was just busy spending his daughter-in-law's money.
"Mom, next time you ask for money with Mas Mahen, please tell me!"
Novi's mother nodded her head, then Via immediately resigned to go home with the princess.
