Mother is Not a Night Woman
I'm sorry, Via!

Via's cry was restrained, his chest felt tight and his entire body trembled. He closed his eyes withstanding the pain when Wira had completely snatched away his crown. Both hands are still trying to hold the body of the Hero who is still on it. As for the hero, he was already speechless. Only his pair of neutrals that had been filled with clear liquid, realized everything.

Still in disbelief, the man looked deeply into the face of the woman who was now under his control. Alviana Andini, a young woman with the status of a wife who has been very hated, a woman who is always insulted and cursed with accusations of cheap women is still sacred. Via had never been touched before, and Wira was the first man to touch it.

"How is it possible, you're still ... ?" ask the girl in a soft voice. There was a single question mark in his mind, about Via that really shocked him. Suddenly there was a huge feeling of guilt.

The shadow of Aldi's speech that said he had spent all night with Via was ringing back, all Aldi's words were not true. And also some other events that made Wira accused Via as a seductress. Wira also tried to parse the meaning of Aldi who said bad about Via. And what Wira believes, certainly Aldi still wants his wife. It could be that Aldi knew that Via was still a girl, so mind contented Wira.

Via's sobs were still heard in the room, making Wira immediately shift position and hug him. Wira's harsh treatment completely tore her pride.

"Can you explain all this to me? How can you still be whole? Aren't you ..." The mind seemed unable to continue the question. Now all that's in her heart is guilt. "does this mean Lyla's not your real child?"

Via did not answer that question, all he wanted was to get out of the room immediately. "To-please let go of my a-ku, Mas ..." he softly tried to release the hand of the Wira that was coiled on his body.

"No, before you give me an explanation."

Instead of explaining, Via's cry became even more. Wira also tried to calm him by hugging his wife's body again.

"Sorry, I'm khilaf," said Wira rubbed his innocent back Via.

Still with the rest of her cries held back, Via said, "Just because Mas Wira thinks I'm a cheap woman, so Mas Wira treats me like this?" Via's voice was heard faltering, but the Hero was still able to understand well.

Via pushed slowly the body of the Hero, then tried to get up with the rest of his energy. The pain in his body was not comparable to the pain in his heart. The woman immediately put back on her clothes that were forcibly pulled by the Hero, until they were torn in some parts.

With a flickering step, Via walked out of the room. While Wira immediately grabbed her sleeping robe, and followed Via who had gone down the stairs.

"Via, wait!" wira hastened his pace. He tried to grab Via's body and hug her from behind, then whispered, "excuse me. Come on, let's talk first" she said, hugging. He turned his body around and hugged her back. For the first time, the hero was gentle with his wife.

"I'm guilty, Via. I've accused you of being a no-no." The hand of the Hero gently rubbed the long hair Via. However, it was as if the words meant nothing to Via. He was silent, with the remains of his cries.

A moment later, there was the sound of Lyla crying coming from the back room.

"Mother .." call her with the sound of crying.

Via immediately released his arms and stepped towards the back room where his little daughter was. Upon arriving in front of the room, the woman re-justifies her clothes, making sure that she is not in a mess in front of Lyla, then rubs her tears so that Lyla does not see.

And right, Lyla was there on her stomach. Via immediately grabbed the little girl's body. "Darling, why?" the question was gentle, while bringing Lyla into his lap. As much as possible, Via tried to smile, while rubbing the tiny face.

"Lyla was afraid, Mother," she replied in a staggered voice.

"Fear why, son! There is a Mother here ..." Via kissed his son's forehead, then hugged him tightly.

"Mother, Lyla wants to go home. Lyla doesn't want to stay here. Om Wila is evil as Mother," Lyla's answer made Via speechless.

Lyla might have seen what Mas Wira did to me just now...

The woman tried to hide her tears. "Om Wira is not evil like Mother. What did Lyla see?"

Lyla raised her head, looking at her bunda with a face that clearly looked sad. "So Lyla saw Om Wila helping Mother on the stairs. Teyuss Mother fell."

Hearing Lyla's reply made Via breathe a sigh of relief, at least the little girl did not see what the Hero did to her in the room. "No, Honey ... Om Wira is sick, so accidentally push Mother."

"Lyla also saw, Om Wila insteadin Mommy," she softly held back the crying. "Let's go Mother, we go home. Lyla is not shuka Om Wila. Om Wila is evil and fierce." Pulling up the end of her Mother's clothes, begging her to go back to the orphanage.

Via hugged Lyla again and kissed her head. His hand was still trembling due to the coercion that the Hero had done to him. The mother and son embraced each other. Crying each of them.

Without them noticing, Wira had been at the door since, listening to the conversation of the two people inside. And without feeling it, her tears just flowed. He remembered all his deeds to Via and Lyla. How much He hated Via for a reason that was not true. Even with the hardness of his heart to the little Lyla.

The hero went back to researching every corner of the room. A second-hand room that is totally unfit. There's only a closet and a worn-out mattress in there. Wira wanted to go into the room and hug Via and Lyla, and apologize for her bad deeds all along.

How could I be this cruel to them? I made them sleep in this room. Via ... I've wasted a wife as good as her. How soft he is. Lyla wasn't even her child, but she treated Lyla like her own.

After a while in front of the room, Wira returned to her room upstairs. His eyes were fixed on the messy bed. He sits there. His eyesight caught the bloodstains of Via left there.

I misjudged Via. Ivan's right, Via a fine woman. Didn't you buy it from Marco to protect it? But why did he get into that black world?
