My husband's Traumaku
Chapters 12. Both

Linda immediately picked up a souvenir from Sari who was now splattered on the floor because of Erik's actions. He wiped his tears many times but his cheeks did not dry. Ari's eyes just keep flowing without Linda can prevent.

The motor was a gift from his parents. They gave it to her just before Linda was betrothed by Erik. And Linda always uses it wherever she goes because Erik never wants to deliver it.

If Erik sells the bike then what if he wants to go to the city to buy tools and materials for sewing? Or just go to the market to buy vegetables and other needs.

Linda went to the bathroom to wash her face to remove the traces of her crying after which she came to Aruna in her room.

"Mara ... I brought you your food."

"Where's mom from? I was looking for my mother" asked Aruna as soon as she saw her mother.

"Mother to Bude Sari's house. But it rained so mom had to stay over. I'm sorry I'm not saying goodbye to Runa."

Aruna continued to observe her mother's face. Although she was still a child Aruna knew her mother was not okay.

"Are you not feeling well? Mother's eyes are red. I sleep in Runa's room only when she's not feeling well."

"No Runa, mom's fine. Mom still has a lot of work. If I sleep later your father ... " Linda couldn't continue her sentence. His throat was blocked and his eyes were back in tears.

"Mom will clean the house first." Linda rushed out of her son's room. He did not want his tears to drip in front of Aruna even though the boy had seen her many times.

Linda did her job immediately. She cleans the house, washes, cooks after that continues sewing. He did not rest at all. Sometimes he had to stop and raise his head so that his tears wouldn't drip.

At noon Erik came home. She immediately looked for Linda in the sewing room.

"Your motor sells twelve million. The nine million I used to pay the installments this month and the next two months. So the next two months we don't have to worry about the installment!" erik said while standing next to the sewing machine. He can smile now.

"There are three million, two million to buy a bike. The one million I keep in case!"

Linda looked up to Erik's explanation. He was still trying to digest Erik's words.

"What bike is Mas?"

"That's, I bought you a bike for you to go everywhere. So don't say I'm not understanding!" Erik spoke without feeling guilty at all. Linda is speechless.

"You've cooked?" Erik switched the conversation.

Linda nodded.

"Good ... I'm hungry." Erik hurried off leaving Linda for the dining room

Erik really has no feelings. He didn't ask Linda's opinion first when it was Linda's motorcycle. In her heart Linda was very disappointed but she did not dare to show it. So now everywhere Linda is going to ride a bike while Erik is riding in the car.

Linda recalled Sari's words this morning, she must not be afraid of Erik. What might he be able to do while hearing Erik's tone rise just a little Linda was already frightened.

Previously Linda had entrusted Aruna to Sella's parents if Aruna had gone home from school but she had not returned home.

Linda headed straight for her subscription sewing tool shop, after which she went to the fabric store. Across the street from the sewing machine shop is a fast food restaurant. Linda crossed the street and was about to buy Aruna a fried chicken there.

But Linda had not yet entered to see Erik sitting alone with a woman in the restaurant. The woman looks older than him. Maybe it's the same age as Sari or maybe more. They look very familiar. Even Erik held the hand of the older-looking woman.

Linda couldn't believe what she saw. So it's like Erik's behavior outside the house. I want her to come up to Erik and ask him who the woman he was with was. Linda has no guts. Erik could have gone berserk without seeing the place and time.

Linda was embarrassed to see her appearance from the reflection of the glass walls. He was just wearing a worn-out shirt whose color had faded once brown was now creamy. His body bathed in sweat from pedaling a bicycle from his village made him even more insecure.

While the woman who was with Erik looked very charming. The woman wears fashionable clothes that look expensive and also wears makeup. From her appearance and gestures, it was clear that the woman was not an ordinary woman.

Linda could only look at Erik with a rumble in her chest. Even if Linda dared to come to Erik and invite him to talk, not necessarily Erik would admit him as his wife because the appearance of Linda who is hick is very contrasted with the woman in front of Erik.

Finally Linda undoes her intention to buy fried chicken for Aruna. He went and bought it somewhere else. Linda was pedaling her bike in a doldrums. Her tears dried up crying over Erik's behavior. The shadow of Erik eating alone with the other women continued to fill his head. It hurts Linda's heart.

Linda arrived home when it was late afternoon. Don't forget he picked up Aruna at Sella's place. Linda also bought souvenirs for Sella as a thank you for taking care of Aruna.

"Let's eat" Linda said after she and Aruna finished bathing.

Aruna nodded. "What mom cooked?"

"Mother is not cooking. But I bought you something."

"What mom?"

Linda pulled out two rice boxes with the words fried chicken, which Aruna loved very much. The boy looks very happy. Not necessarily once a month he could eat this food.

"Mom only bought two?"

"Yes. Why why?"

"Mom didn't buy it for me, too?"

Linda speechless. Erik's shadow with the other women came back to his mind.

"No, your father can buy it for himself" Linda replied. He behaves like nothing happened.

Linda no longer wanted to sacrifice herself for Erik. From today he will only think of himself and Aruna.

"Well if you're angry how's Mom? We eat good while Dad doesn't?" asked Aruna innocently.

If only Aruna knew, when her father ate well he never remembered his son and wife at home.

"Dad won't be angry. I have money to buy the food he wants." Linda remembered the remaining one million dollars in motorcycle sales. The money was not given to him given that the motorcycle Erik was selling was his. But Erik just kept the money himself with a reason to be on guard.
