In the hospital the tension was felt by Evita, Fitria and Afnan.
Afnan who did not know who the person he helped could only remain silent.
After the doctor treated Darmono, Afnan decided to return to Salimah's house.
He was worried about what happened at his ex-wife's house.
How not, Afnan heard a glimpse of the screams of those who were perched. Moreover, there was a woman who fell down with an appearance that was not good.
Whether he was involved in the matter of what his ex-wife was until the state of the house that is usually calm suddenly became gripping.
"Sir?" call Fitria who sees Afnan quiet with a blank look.
Afnan blinked for a moment to recover his consciousness.
"Eh yes Fit. Sorry because the father had been handled, I leave now yes," said Afnan to leave.
"Wait for me to deliver!" prevent Fitria who can not let go of Afnan just like that.
Afnan wanted to refuse because he was really worried about the situation of Salimah and her son, but remained unmoved when Fitria left him to approach the woman who was the wife of the man she helped.
"Come Sir!" invite Fitria to leave Evita alone.
"Do you know who the old man was?" fitria suddenly said.
Obviously it was not a question for Afnan to answer, but rather an expression before he said his continuation.
"He is Salimah's father-in-law!" clear Fitria flat.
Hearing who the two people he helped earlier were his ex-wife's in-laws, making Afnan's steps stop instantly.
A second later, he resumed his steps.
For what he was angry, he already knew the truth about Salimah who was married again.
Then Afnan remembered the figure of a woman who sat with a disheveled appearance.
Was that the first wife of Salimah's husband? His inner.
"The woman I saw sitting on the floor was her husband's first wife Salimah" Fitria answered Afnan's thoughts.
"Yes, as you might think. Sister Salimah with her honeymoon brother are at odds," said Fitria with a sigh.
Afnan was confused as to how to respond to his secretary's remarks. He preferred to be quiet, besides he did not know what was going on with his ex-wife's life, he also wanted to find out everything from Fitria who used to choose silence.
"I also did not think Salimah would be that greedy," suddenly Fitria said something that made Afnan's steps back to a halt.
He who had chosen to listen, there was a sense of inadmissibility in Afnan when the woman he still loved was ugly.
Afnan knew Salimah very well. There was no way the woman had such a greedy nature as her secretary's remark.
But his little heart said something else. He did not know his wife very well. After all, Afnan always wondered why Salimah had shallow thoughts by wanting to become a second wife.
"It seems like it's time you know" replied Fitria calmly.
This is what Afnan had hoped for long ago, wanting to know what was going on with his ex-wife's life.
Unfortunately, he had a very limited time. He who managed to avoid the mother to meet with Salimah and Rino was confused by what thought would be the time to exchange to hear the story of Fitria?
"Father ready?" cecar Fitria who saw the doubt in Afnan.
This was the final opportunity for Fitria to keep Afnan away from Salimah. It's okay if he is called cruel, anyway not all he lies, the refutation is self-assured.
Afnan himself was somewhat hesitant to listen to the story of Fitria about Salimah now.
If the girl refused firmly in the past, then why now as if she wanted to open the veil of the secret of Salimah, her mind is confused.
Moreover, Fitria had clearly expressed her feelings to him.
"I don't really want to interfere with Salimah Fit. What matters to me is Rino's well-groomed. Salimah's affairs are clearly beyond my capacity" Afnan replied calmly.
"The problem is there is something you should know because surely they will ask about the father someday."
"meaning?" ask Afnan wonder.
"Father suddenly came, of course you will ask about who the father is."
Both arrived at the parking lot. Afnan hesitated to leave Fitria, as it was clear the girl had something to say to her again.
"Mother? You mean your mom was your mom? So you're Salimah's sister-in-law?" cecar Afnan who began to be interested in the story of Fitria.
"My mother and father were my adoptive parents. Their son is Salimah's husband."
Afnan nodded in understanding. Fitria's response was upset when considered Salimah's adopted sister. Because he turned out to be Salimah's husband's adoptive sister, Afnan thought. “Jadi ... What happened at Salimah's house?"
"Did you see that my adoptive mother and father preferred Salimah to her first son-in-law? And yes ... It made my adoptive brother's first wife jealous. Moreover, my adoptive parents did not do fair to both of his daughters-in-law. I actually pity my sister's first wife."
Intentionally Fitria did not mention one by one his family name. He didn't want Afnan to find out about them, he thought.
"I said Salimah was greedy, because after everything my foster parents did to her, it felt like she was greedy and wanted everything."
The words of Fitria really cornered Salimah. The girl grew excited about dropping her foster brother in front of Afnan.
"Moreover the existence of the father only makes the plan easier" he continued.
"I? What did I do?" ask Afnan not understand.
"I don't know if you want to believe anything. But with the presence of my father, Salimah could put pressure on my adoptive family again!"
"He can quibble if he can leave them to go back to him, if his request is not followed!"
Increasingly do not understand Afnan with the mind Salimah. There is doubt that his kind-hearted ex-wife could do such a thing.
"What does he want?"
"She wants to be my adoptive sister's only wife!"
"Well! I have known Salimah for a long time. It's kind of weird that he suddenly became what you said."
"It's up to you to believe what you don't, I've tried to explain to you. In fact, the father was only made a tool, which unfortunately Mbak Salimah did not think that his plan could be a boomerang for him."
"Why do you suddenly know Salimah's plan? If he's really what you said, he can't possibly tell you, '" Elak Afnan.
Phitria waver, it was not easy to influence Afnan to believe in his bragging.
"And I heard it myself, sir, when they were storming in front of the house!"
"When Salimah separated from my foster brother. Sure she must have lost her son, because my adoptive parents wouldn't have let go of their only grandchild."
"Oh yes one that you do not know, Salimah was married to my adoptive brother because my adoptive sister's wife could not get pregnant. Because the two are friends, be my sister-in-law asking mbak Salimah to be her honeymoon. Not expecting it to be a weapon to eat sir," said Fitria excitedly.
"Then the information is Fit. May Salimah not be as you think. Even if the reality is like that, my job is to protect Rino and give her affection. Beyond that, may our closeness not be misunderstood by your adoptive family."
There is a sense of unease in Afnan, moreover what is described by Fitria makes his mind split, between believing and rejecting.
But can not be ungkiri if the love is still great for his ex-wife. Although Salimah may have changed drastically.
"I just don't want you to be disappointed anymore. Ma'am Salimah obviously will not want to release his son just for the sake of the father. If that happens, are you ready to get hurt a second time?"
