#POV AUTHOR
“Poor people like that. I like not knowing myself!”
A middle-aged woman was sitting while crossing her left leg over the right leg while leaning haughtily over the sofa. The middle-aged woman's loud voice made a little boy hide behind a glass cabinet that was not far from where the woman was sitting.
In front of the middle-aged woman, there was a beautiful twenty-eight-year-old young woman sitting on the floor with her eyes moist as a result of the swift flow of tears soaking her cheeks. Her left hand supported the body on the floor while her right hand stroked the distended stomach due to pregnancy.
“But, Mom. I am not strong if Mas Ravi should marry again,” isak young woman who is struggling.
“Heh, Luna!” call the middle-aged woman in a disgusted tone. His eyes sharpened towards the crying young lady.
“Kalo is not because of my son, you will not be able to live well like gini!” ketus is a middle-aged woman who is the biological mother of Ravi Ravindra, the father of Rain Ravindra.
“Huh! What sins have I been in the past, to the point of having a daughter-in-law who doesn't know herself like this!” continue again while grunting violently.
The little boy who had been hiding behind a closet, was the biological son of Luna and Ravi named Rain. The five-year-old little man had to hold the pain in his heart when he saw the mother he loved in the abuse by his own grandmother.
The little boy who doesn't know anything is forced by the universe to see things he shouldn't see. At his current age, he should know very well what love and affection from the family is. In fact, he saw what hatred and oppression were.

“Ma,” call little Rain with her cute voice. “Papa want to marry again huh?”
Luna swallowed her saliva. The beautiful woman was surprised to hear the plain question of the child who was sitting next to her. How did the boy know that his father was going to marry another woman?
“Ng-no. Papa ‘kan love Mama, Nak.”
“Keep, how did Grandma say Papa wants to marry again?”
Luna bent her body with great difficulty in order to stare at the face of her first child. He stroked Rain's cheek gently. “Ngak, coke. Papa can't possibly. You see Papa you love to die with Mama.”
“Lagian, Rain will also briefly have adek,” continued Luna while gently stroking her distended stomach.
Rain who at that time knew nothing, he just nodded his head with an innocent smile. Then he hugged his mother's distended stomach while trying to listen to the sound of the stomach.
“Rain can't wait to meet adek, Ma.”
...****************...
That night, it was raining so hard with the thunder that struck each other. Time shows at ten past thirty minutes. At that time, Luna was seen pacing back and forth on the balcony restlessly while stroking her stomach.
“Ma!” exciting Rain. The five-year-old ran cheerfully towards his mother, then hugged the woman he loved tightly.
“Loh, haven't slept yet, son?” ask Luna to worry.
“I miss adek, Ma,” said Rain while kissing her mother's stomach.
“Papa!” exclaim Rain excited when he saw Ravi enter.
“Kok Rain here, Ma?” ask Ravi to Luna.
“He misses,” replied Luna with a smile. The woman walked over to Ravi who had just returned home.
“Turn to the room gih, Papa want to rest,” said Ravi coldly.
The originally gleeful and yet sleepy face was made gloomy due to his unpleasant speech. Rain walked lazily and a sullen face came out of his parents' room. However, just as he wanted to step towards his room, the little boy's footsteps came to a halt.
“I ‘kan not yet kissed Mama,” murmured slowly.
He turned around holding the doorknob.
“Mas, whose lipstick is this?!” faintly came the voice of Luna who asked with a trembling tone.
Rain could not help but listen to the conversation between his parents. He opened the door slowly, leaving a slight gap for him to peek at what was happening in the room.
“Aduh, it's late. Can't you just let me rest?” elak Ravi took off his watch and placed it on a small table beside the bed.
Luna is seen sniffing her husband's shirt in hand at this time. “Women's perfume fragrance, Mas!”
Ravi looks lazy to listen to his pregnant wife. He threw himself on the bed, put his hands on his forehead and closed his eyes.
“Mas have opened heart ‘kan for the woman?” asked Luna with teary eyes. “Not him Mas had rejected the matchmaking that Mother asked?”
Disappointed because Ravi did not touch him, Luna sat on the side of the bed while facing Ravi who was lying on her back. She shook her husband's body slowly. The corner of his eyes slowly caused a round of clear water to rush out.
“I will not be in honey ‘kan, Mas?” asked Luna sobbing.
“Argh!” Ravi took the hand of his wife who had been shaking her body. The man got up from sleep and positioned his body sitting facing Luna.
“Can't do it, just once ngertiin me?” kecam Ravi with reddened eyes held back the anger.
“Ngertiin what, Mas? Want to get married again?” cecar Luna couldn't stand it. “I'm sure, Mas also already slept with that woman.”
“Soalah I went to the secretary, Mas behind what time. He said at five in the afternoon it was back, but Mas got home late at night,”.
Ravi let out his breath. He was disturbed by his wife's sobs, his head was made dizzy because the woman was looking for him at night. Feeling fed up with the situation he faced, Ravi vented all his emotions at that moment to the woman who was pregnant with her second child.
Ravi grabbed Luna's chin violently and gripped it firmly.
“Listen!” ravi's voice echoed in the room. “I married you for love! Love is not enough for the future of this business! What else can you do but love me? Huh uh?! You should be self-conscious! I live a good life, even so greedy!”
“What if I slept with that woman?! I ‘kan have given you all the luxury!” ravi continued with loud and emphasis, he threw his wife's face hard.
