My loyalty my stupidity

Nico opens his cell phone, he receives a photo from his mother,

When he saw the photo Nico was very angry, his hands clenched as if he wanted to beat anyone nearby,

Clara who saw something strange from Nico tried to ask why Nico was silent without a word,

Nico also showed a photo of Malika on his phone,

"Good God, this isn't Malika, your lover"

Tanya Clara tries to heat up Nico's mood to hate Malika even more,

Recalling the message from Tiara, Nico tried to think clearly, and dampen all his anger, so that he did not act rashly like yesterday,

"It's Malika"

Answer Nico briefly,

Clara wondered why Nico was so ordinary when she tried to light a fire in her anger,

Clara was upset, in her heart she kept cursing,

Nico and Clara finally arrive in front of Nico's house,

Simple house that is not too big, simple house that is still based on black ceramic shades of the old house, the windows are still partly made of wood, the windows are still made of wood,

In front of a shady house with water guava trees and mango trees, it is very shady and cool if the wind blows, really,

Clara likes the cool atmosphere at Nico's house,

The atmosphere is far from the hustle and bustle of the very hot city of Jakarta,

They get out of the car, too,

"Come on Clara, I'm sorry my little house,"

Nico lets Clara into the house,

When he opened the door, his big sister welcomed his arrival,

"Ka Nico"

Said Andini, one of Nico's sisters,

"Din, are you healthy, where's mom?

Nico asks about his sister and her mother's whereabouts,

Andini also said if her mother went out, maybe soon will return,

And sure enough, it didn't take long when Nico told Clara to sit down ,

Miss Ratna came, too,

Ms. Ratna was so happy to see her son come home,

"Co, sonny"

Ms. Ratna immediately hugged Nico pouring out her longing,

Because Ms. Ratna was not aware of the arrival of Clara sitting in the living room chair,

Ms. Ratna immediately complained about Malika and the youngest's hospital fee to Nico,

"Mother confused co, your sister still can not go home, she must still be treated in the hospital, we find money from where to cost her co, mother is very confused, added Malika again,I'm pissed off by Malika, it looks like she did betray you co"

Said Ms. Ratna who was upset with Malika,

Nico tells his mother not to talk too loud, because there is Clara at home, Bu Ratna apologizes for not knowing there is Clara, and she does not want to talk,

He also met Clara who was sitting in the living room chair,

Clara heard everything Bu Ratna said to Nico, and she put a plan in mind,

***

Malika is very happy to meet Nico,

Malika tightly embraced Nico pouring out her deep yearning, and,

"Nico I miss you so much, I love you so much"

Malika did not let go of her embrace even though Nico did not hug her back,

Nico just fell silent, he sighed deeply, he said,

As if he was holding back an outpouring of anger, Nico tried to let go of Malika's embrace slowly,

"You why co, don't you miss me?"

Malika asked with her deep gaze at Nico,

Nico was silent for a moment, as if he was preparing a word he wanted to say to Malika, Nico held Malika's shoulder, too,

"Do you love me?"

Ask Nico, please,

Malika was astonished, why did Nico ask like that, what did he mean,

"Don't you know how much I love you co?why are you asking me that, then,?"

Nico forced Malika to answer his question honestly,

"Just answer my question, do you love me?"

Tanya Nico returned in a high tone,

To Malika's surprise,

"Yes I love you co"

Answer Malika,

"If you love me, come with me, leave your mother"

Nico's brief reply to Malika left Malika so devastated,

Why did Nico come to heart give him a very heavy choice,

There was no way Malika would leave her mother for the rest of her twilight years, and there was no way that Malika would have to leave her mother in any case,

"You shut up, that means your love is limited to your mouth, you can't choose your true love for your own life, I'm so disappointed in you Malika"

Said Nico taking off Malika's hand to him very rudely,

"But co,"

Malika can't continue all her words, because she feels she can't choose between herself and her mother,

Malika cries begging Nico not to leave her,

"Don't leave me co"

Malika said grievingly,

But Nico is indifferent to Malika, Nico only wants certainty from Malika,

Whether Malika chose him or chose her mother,

"If you choose your mother, then let go I forget me forever, assume I was never in your life "

Nico said firmly to make Malika even more sad,

Suddenly, Ms. Arum came to wake Malika who was on her knees sad as if begging for Nico's love for her,

"When my son, how dare you"

Arum slapped Nico very hard in front of Malika,

Seeing Nico's cheeks reddened by his mother's slap, Malika reprimands her mother,

"Mother why did you slap Nico, what's wrong?"

Malika asked as if defending Nico,

Ms. Arum was surprised, because the child she loved dared to reprimand her only for a man who did not know manners like Nico,

"You're still asking why mom slapped this guy,?and you dare to reprimand your mother, you're very disappointed with you"

Answer Ms. Arum

"This man has made the mother's son cry and kneel like a beggar, the mother cannot accept that son"

Furthermore, Bu Arum was disappointed in Malika for defending Nico in front of him,

Malika is so very confused and sad, Nico continues to force her to choose between herself and her mother,

Malika's tears are unable to melt Nico's hurt feelings towards Bu Arum for forcing her to separate from Malika,

Nico accidentally forces Malika to make a choice because she wants to avenge her heartache on Ms. Arum,

"Hurry up, Malika, you choose me or your mother"

Tegur Nico forced Malika to make a quick decision, but Malika could only continue to cry and be silent,

"You're my son, son, you can't possibly leave me"

Bu Arum said to Malika hoping that Malika would not choose the wrong decision,

Bu Arum who was sad because of the dilemma of his son fell to the ground, his tears continued to flow because he was afraid that Malika would leave him,

But at once Keenan came to wake Ms. Arum and invite her to stand up,

Keenan smiled at Arum

Saya said,

"When she's an adult, she can make decisions in her life, don't worry, give Malika the freedom to choose"

Keenan said to Bu Arum who never stopped crying, Keeenan tried to make Bu Arum steadfast for the answer to Malika's decision,

"I don't know who to choose, I don't want to choose one of you, I love Nico so much and I love my mom so much, you're both people I love so much "

Malika's sobs broke when she couldn't choose one of the two,

"That means I assume your answer is that you prefer your mother over me, well, from today on you don't ever call me again, just assume I'm gone for you,because I don't mean anything to you"

Nico replied in a loud tone to Malika,

He was disappointed because Malika could not be firm in making a decision,
