My loyalty my stupidity
Wanting

Malika stopped her steps and turned towards Rishi who asked her to stop,

Rishi walked towards Malika and was about to approach her.

Nico's sweat is increasingly pouring as Rishi's steps get closer to Malika and her son,

"Damn, does Malika have to know everything now? What should I explain later if Rishi tells Malika?"

Rishi stood right in front of Malika, with his sturdy body, Rishi tried to open his voice, saying,

Malika asked what was going on?

At that time, Nico felt resigned if Rishi did want to tell Malika.

His face began to give up.

"It's actually..."

Rishi said he gave Malika's phone left in the chair where she was waiting for Nico.

"Other times be careful, because crime can happen anywhere and anytime, sometimes crime can also be done by the people closest to us, people who are always with us then beware"

Rishi reminded Malika with a message to be alert.

Nico's breath was a little calmer when he heard what Rishi said to his wife, but why did Rishi not say what happened at the hotel that night? Doesn't Rishi want to make Malika sad? Or is there another reason?

But for Nico, it's not important, most importantly now, he feels out of the red zone.

Nico immediately asks Malika to get in the car.

"Thank you Rishi".

Reply Malika thanked Rishi with her sweet smile before entering the taxi.

Rishi returned Malika's smile for a moment when Malika really left.

"Pity you Malika, I'm sorry I couldn't tell your husband the truth without proof"

It turned out that Rishi had thought things through carefully, though,

He can't tell Malika the truth because he doesn't have proof for all the treason Nico committed.

Rishi also intends to ask for hotel cctv footage right the night of the incident, so that Malika believes him.

In the taxi, Nico still seemed nervous with the sweat that soaked his forehead, his breathing was very irregular.

"Why you, co? Are you okay?"

Malika asked him to surprise her.

"Mm yeah I'm fine, just a little .. maybe tired, already don't you think, what about Zidan? Is he still sleeping?"

Nico asked, trying to hide his anxiety.

Malika looked back at the tiny face of the red baby Zidan, with a look full of affection Malika continued to praise the good looks of her baby.

"Look co, he summarized even though he was sleeping, hihi funny yes"

Malika said as she saw Zidan smiling in her closed eyes.

Both of them also smiled to see the beautiful scenery that they had witnessed for the first time in their lives.

Happiness is now being felt in their household relationships.

The floor was filled with dust, even spider webs began to grow around the corners of the walls and doors, and it made Malika feel uncomfortable.

"How about this co, I'm afraid Zidan will be okay with the state of the house dirty and messy like this?".

Nico asked Malika to wait for him outside, while he cleaned the house first, fortunately there was a Marni who asked Malika to rest in her house.

"Son Malika's home yet? Why wait outside, let's sit here at mom's house first"

Ms. Marni respect immediately invited Malika into her house to rest when she saw Nico who had cleaned her house.

Inside the house, a cheque from Clara that he had not taken fell when Nico opened his wardrobe.

"Geez, don't let Malika find this? Can you suspect him?"

Finally Nico keeps the check in his wallet side by side with Bu Arum's letter telling Malika that Nico's father is the killer of his father.

After it was felt all clean and neat, Nico followed Malika to the house bi Marni to tell if the house was ready and clean.

"Thanks bi Marni, bi Marni has helped Malika so much all this time?"

Said Malika felt indebted to bi Marni,

Bi Marni also drove Malika to the house, Zidan was taken by her, because she was worried that Malika's wound would open again if she did something heavy.

***

Day by day their lives go by with all the joy and happiness in between.

Nico is very excited to take care of Zidan and Malika.

Malika also looks very happy with all the treatment of Nico who is responsible, until the hue of happiness makes her beauty re-emerged after a long time.

Until one day, Nico who saw Malika was breastfeeding Zidan, felt the desire to play love with her grew, and,

"Why does Malika look so pretty and seductive these days?"

With a short hair stellan, Malika increasingly looks dazzling in Nico's eyes, until finally when Malika fell asleep with Zidan, Nico tried to approach her.

Slowly Nico touches her face, making Malika realize, Malika asks why Nico touched her?

"You look so pretty baby, I want to"

"It's only been a week co, my wounds are still not dry, be patient "

Malika replied that she rejected Nico's desire for all the reasons she felt.

Nico was disappointed with Malika's rejection, he realized that if Malika had not given birth to Zidan, the wound was not dry, too, so she shouldn't have asked for rations before 40 days and Malika was already completely cured.

Disappointed Nico finally goes out to enjoy the cold night sky.

His phone rang, a message from Clara reminded him that tomorrow he had to go back to work.

Seeing Clara's name on her phone, Nico again remembered her betrayal of Malika with Clara.

"Will Malika know everything?"

Nico intends to end it all by returning a gift check from Clara so that she can never blackmail her again.

"Later tonight I'll give you back this check"

Nico.
