Mother is Not a Night Woman

Mother is Not a Night Woman
Threats


"Do you want to be in my house?!" The hero snapped loudly again, when Via simply fell silent without answering the question. His feet had felt weak to hear the snapping of the child from his master. There is a feeling between fear and shame.


"Ma-maaf .. "he said stammering while looking down. "I'm here for ...."


"For what? Who are you here to seduce?" yell again while gripping the wrist of the woman in front of him.


Via quickly shook his head, with teary eyes. "N-no! It's not so .. I'm just here to ..."


"To be my father's mistress? Didn't they? You cheap lady! Now you leave this house and don't try to set foot in this house again! If you dare to come here again, just look how I'm going to destroy you!"


"But I'm not here for that purpose, I'm just taking care of the mistress." Via tries to defend himself, but Wira doesn't care. Whatever comes out of a woman's mouth is a lie.


"You don't have to defend yourself. I know what a woman like you wants. You just want money, right? How much do you want? I can give you just as long as you get out of here. And remember one thing, I not only forbid you from coming back to this house, but also forbid you from approaching Bu Lany again. Because you don't deserve to work in a good place like there. Remember, I can ruin your life if you dare to bring yourself up again!"


The hero pushed Via hard so that he staggered onto the porch, then took out the wallet from his pants pocket and threw some money right in front of Via. "Take it and get out of here!" After that, without a word, the Hero entered the house by slamming the door.


Via wiped his tears, then left the big house. The money that the Hero threw at him was just left behind.


Inside there, Wira several times sighed, trying to temper her emotions.


This is already too much. Dad ... how could he bring the woman that night to the house when the mother was sick, said Wira inwardly.


Aunt Arum had just walked out of the room after hearing the commotion coming from downstairs. It looks like the spirit is setting its breath that is hunting. The middle-aged woman immediately approached her employer's son. "What's up, Den?"


For a few seconds, the hero had not answered. His eyes closed with clenched hands.


"Auntie, what does that cheap lady want in this house?" asked Wira with a face clearly seen growling.


Aunt Arum was filled with questions in her mind, about who Wira meant as a cheap woman. "Looly woman? Who does Den Wira mean?"


"The woman who just got out of this house, Auntie!"


"Den Wira, Via?"


"Who else, Auntie. What's he doing in this house?" tanya Wira was upset to make the frown on Aunt Arum's forehead deepening the sign of still confused.


"If what Den Wira means is Via, he's here to take care of the mistress. The lord asked for."


Daddy asked for it? Yes, it's getting clearer now. I asked the woman to pretend to be here to take care of mom. I really can't believe this.


"Then where's dad?"


"Master hasn't come home yet, Den. Ever since Den Wira quit the company, sir rarely comes home soon." Hearing Aunt Arum's reply made Wira even more riled up. His mind has been exploring everywhere.


He was always late coming home for sure to meet that cheap lady. The hero grumbled in the heart.


"Well, where's mom, Bi?"


"The lady is asleep."


The hero still looks to dampen the emotions that seem to burn his soul. The man did not stop thinking, his father brought Via home. "Auntie, from now on I don't want that woman coming to this house anymore, whatever the reason is."


Wira's speech was greeted by a face full of questions by Aunt Arum. The middle-aged woman still did not understand why Wira did not want Via to take care of her mother. Trying to vent, Aunt Arum rubbed Wira's shoulder while looking at her deeply.


"What happened to Via, Den? He takes good care of the lady. Now the mistress has made a lot of progress since being treated Via." Aunt Arum tried to explain to Vira the existence of Via in the house.


"But the Lord asked Via to come here to take care of the madam."


"That's all just an excuse because I actually want to ..." The hero hung his words. Closing his rough eyes, he sighed. He almost said what no one else wanted to know, about the possibility of infidelity of the father and a woman of the night. "already, Auntie! I want to see Mom first. Don't tell dad that I met that woman in this house. If I ask you to say you don't know."


"Good, Den!"


After that, Wira left Aunt Arum, heading for the mother's room.


Arriving in the room, Wira sat on the lip of the bed, staring at the face of the mother who had almost a month never met him.


Poor mom ... Mother's sick and father's behavior like this. Inner Hero.


********


Via had just arrived at the parlour when there was a sound of panic emanating from the direction of a room. The young lady quickened her pace with a troubled mind. I thought something happened to her little daughter.


Inside there, Bu Retno was crying while holding the hand of little Lyla. Instantly the joints of Via again felt weak. Her tears just escaped seeing Lyla's body having a seizure. He walked closer, and sat on the lip of the bed.


"Bus ... Lyla why?" ask Via in a panic.


"Lyla convulsing, Via. I gave the medicine to get hot, but the fever rose again."


Via rubbed the head of the little girl. His face was even pale. And as the seizure began to stall, without much thought, Via grabbed Lyla's body and carried her. "Come, Mom! We're taking Lyla to the hospital."


They immediately took Lyla to the hospital in a taxi. Along the way Via kept crying trying to resuscitate his little girl. It seems that the woman will not be able to if she has to lose the figure of Lyla who has been an encouragement for her life.


Upon arrival at the hospital, Ms. Retno waited in front of the IGD room while Via took care of the hospital administration. The woman looks confused, thinking about the cost of Lyla's hospital. The money given by Mr. Gunawan has run out to treat Lyla, whose condition has recently decreased. And now, Via has no more savings, while Wira has given him a threat not to go to the house again.


While waiting in line, the woman sat in a long chair. Both of his brown eyeballs were again filled with clear liquid. Falling is the only thing he feels now. There is no place to complain but to the Creator.


I have to what now? Where am I gonna get the money for Lyla's hospital expenses.


Via rubbed a drop of her falling tears, whereupon the name call of Lyla was heard through a loudspeaker. Immediately the woman approached an officer and gave him a map.


*****


Never imagined Via before if his life would be full of struggle like now. Seeing Lyla's condition getting worse made her unable to think well. He's been looking for work everywhere, but hasn't got it yet.


That day, after applying for a job at a printing press, Via walked to the hospital where Lyla was treated. His steps came to a halt when a luxury car pulled up on the side of the road. A middle-aged man came out of the car with a shady smile.


"Mr ..." Via halted his steps when he realized who was standing before him.


"Via, can we talk to you for a second?" said Mr. Gunawan.


The woman lowered her head. Recollecting the threat of Wira some time earlier that threatened to destroy his life if he still approached his family. "Sorry, Sir. But I'm in a hurry."


"Via, my wife's been looking for you several times. He wouldn't eat if you didn't feed him."


"But, I really can't take care of the madam anymore, sir. Sorry ...."


Without them noticing, across the street there was someone watching from a safe distance. The man in black glasses took a picture of Via with Mr. Gunawan and sent it to someone.
