My husband's Traumaku
Chapters 30. Again Money

"Father to the shame of Lin. They assume you ran away with another man. Erik is not a good husband, but do not reciprocate by being in a relationship with another man. If that's the case then people see you're the one who's wrong, you're the one who looks bad in their eyes. Neither can you defend me if it's true that way." Mr. Yanto continued to talk as if he had not given Linda a chance to explain.

How clever Erik turned the facts around so that his in-laws could be consumed by his talk. Linda did not blame the men, her neighbors who were witnesses to Erik. They simply deduce from what they see without knowing the true events. Plus, Erik must have crammed those people with his own version of the story.

"Father shy. Now be honest with you, Who is that man? Did you have a forbidden relationship with him?"

"The man was named Bima. We were both gone. He even drove me home, but I had nothing to do with him." I don't want Linda to tell me the truth.

Linda tells how that day she was able to go alone with Bima and ended up stormy with Erik. Linda told Mr. Yanto everything without anyone being covered up again.

"Civilized!" furious Mr. Yanto after hearing Linda's explanation. "Erik is not human! No feelings!"

"Therefore I immediately left Mas Erik's house and wanted to get a divorce from him immediately. I can't forgive him anymore."

"Why didn't you tell me from the beginning? If you know from the beginning, you will not be consumed by Erik's words and follow-up blame you. Forgive me, Father."

"It's okay sir, it's my fault too. Did you manage to get Mas Erik's signature?"

Mr. Yanto shook his head. "Erik asked for twenty million to sign the letter."

"What?!!"

"We have to give him the money otherwise he won't want to sign your divorce papers. If you can't pay, you'll have to go back to him."

"How can it?! It can't be like this sir! I don't want to go back to him." Linda is increasingly aware of what kind of man her husband has been for nine years.

"Brother is not thinking either. He even threatened to report you to the police for adultery."

"God! What other charges is that, sir? I'm not fornicated!"

Linda regrets why she was so stupid she never wanted to do a visa when Erik had been violent with her. At least he could use it to retaliate against Erik.

"Brother doesn't know Lin either. You don't have that kind of money. But you wouldn't be willing to go back to Erik. It seems Erik did deliberately blackmail us." Pak Yanto resigned. "Father regrets marrying you to a man doesn't have the feeling of Erik."

Both of them remained silent in the deadlock. Where did Linda get that kind of money. Not playing Erik toying with Linda's life. The money he wanted again.

"Did you just sell the rice field so you could pay for it?"

"No! The rice field is the focus of the life of the father and mother. I'll think of a way sir. Don't worry!"

Mr. Yanto looked at Linda in astonishment. Usually, this child will only be silent or cry when there is a problem. But this time Linda was very different. His stance was firm, his desire to part with Erik was very strong. He also looks strong and strong. Even until this moment Mr. Yanto has not seen Linda shed tears. Looks like Linda has really changed.

"How will you get the money? You don't work yourself."

A few days have passed. Linda and Erik's status remains unclear. They have not officially separated but have not lived together after the incident. Erik did not try to meet Linda, and vice versa.

Perhaps Erik was currently relaxing because he knew twenty million dollars would soon be within his grasp. So he doesn't have to work hard.

Linda has tried to find a job but in this small village where she lives there are job openings. Most of the villagers work in the fields or in the gardens.

Linda was cleaning the grounds of her parents' house when a car stopped in the yard. Linda knows for sure it was Bima's car.

"Male?! What are you doing here?"

"I want to see how you are. How are you?" Bima's smile expanded after seeing Linda closer.

"Let's go in." Then Linda took Bima in. "Please sit down."

"Who's Lin?" the mother shouted from inside her room.

"My friend Ma'am .. "reply Linda.

"Am I interrupting?" Bima who had already sat down felt bad.

"No. It is a coincidence that you came. I called my father and mother. They want to see you." Linda left Erik alone in the living room.

It wasn't long before Linda was back with her parents. Mr. Yanto and Bima were chatting after Linda introduced the two of them.

"Linda told me everything. So you want to thank Nak Bima for saving my son."

Bima turned to Linda for an explanation. They both agreed that no one would know about the matter.

"Sorry Bima, I was forced to tell the Father."

"One more time I say thank you."

Bima looks wrong.

"My goal here is to see how Linda is doing. The last time I brought him here he was not good. I was worried and felt guilty. I'm sorry sir, maybe my impression is like an immoral man but I did it out of pity with Linda" Bima said politely.

"Thanks Nak Bima now Linda's fine. Thank you." Thank you."

After a long conversation, Bima finally said goodbye. She was glad to finally meet Linda again.

"Linda, I forgot I haven't sent her sewing machine here yet" Bima said before she got into the car.

"What sewing machine?"

"I promised to buy you a sewing machine. I forgot to."

"No need to Bima. No need to bother. Yours have helped me enough."

"Then what are you doing now if you don't sew?" Bima used the opportunity to chat with Linda. There were Linda's parents inside the house so she couldn't freely talk to Linda. No matter the status of Linda is still the wife of the person, the important Bima forward continues to abstain from retreat.

"I ... Help the father in the rice field," replied Linda.

"Tokoku is looking for an employee if you want to apply for a job." Looks like Bima knows Linda's predicament.

"really?" Bima nodded for sure.

"You can come to the store if you want."

"But I'm just a graduate of Junior High."

"No problem, you're welcome." Bima assured. Even if there's no vacancy he'll make it there for Linda. He wouldn't waste the chance to get closer to Linda.
