One Husband Two Wives
Crushed Melting
Rivandra returned to her residence near midnight, and she and Mr. Sam remained at the station to make sure all the trains had departed, until there is no hope to find Areta in a station that is already deserted, he just left there delivered by Mr. Sam, he said, Mr. Sam did not allow him to drive because of the condition of Rivandra's heart that he knew was not good - it was fine to make Mr. Sam worried.
Rivandra stepped foot into her already deserted residence, it seemed like everyone had rested in their respective contest, somehow the atmosphere of the house was no longer the same, the house no longer felt comfortable for her, she said, maybe because the real house for him is not there.
Instead of going into her room, Rivandra prefers to go into the room that Areta used to occupy, Rivandra's tired eyes circled around the room as she entered, the room was neatly arranged as if there had never been any occupants in it, was this one of the ways Areta tortured her? Makes it look like he was never there
...“As tight as Areta, I can't without you” said Rivandra while hitting her chest accompanied by beads of eyes that seeped back as she sat herself in a small chair in front of the dressing table...
Rivandra brushed her tears, not satisfied she was looking for the rest of Areta's tracks there, she now went into the bathroom whose floor had dried up, leaving only a faint smell of soap, rivandra's eyes looked at the things in the bathroom, there was a pink toothbrush that she believed belonged to Areta, maybe Areta forgot to bring it, there was a small bottle of liquid soap, and there was a small bottle of liquid soap, a small bottle of shampoo that was standing upside down somehow Areta kept it that way, and there was a small tube of face wash that had its packaging split in the middle, it seemed Areta was cutting out the face wash packaging, she said, but I don't know what Rivandra didn't know.
The man then stepped back into the room, inched to lie down on the bed that Areta used to sleep in hoping that she could still feel the traces of Areta's body that might still be there, eyes tired from lack of rest and somehow crying it slowly closed, but only for a moment did he sleep the man woke up, his brain seemed to remind him that Areta was gone and he should not be leha, he had to look for her.
Rivandra's eyes reddened as she inched to a seat
...“You're awake?” Tanya Oma who had been there somehow since when, in line with her, Oma's face looked sad...
...“Oma why not sleep?” ...
...“Just like you, Oma also has trouble sleeping” said Oma, he then circulated his gaze throughout the room, “not only you who came to this room, this afternoon Oma mergokin Rossy again cry here, , after Maghrib it was your mother's turn, poor Areta turned out to have a place in our hearts, if only we realized it earlier” said Oma lirih...
His grandson was speechless, perhaps Oma's speech made him drown in wounds
The elderly woman rubbed the bead of eyes dripping on her cheek, Oma then pointed at a glimpse of the cupboard commonly used to store Areta's clothes
... “After Areta left, Oma opened her closet, hoping she wouldn't bring all her clothes because she was gone for a while, but Oma was wrong, all her shabby clothes she was carrying, he just left the clothes and things that Rossy and Anna had bought for him, he arranged neatly there, Rivan”...
Rivandra's heart melos grievous, Rivandra's red eyes that have dried up earlier are now wet again because of the clear puddles in her eye fertilizers
Oma was silent for a while, then lowered her head, feeling a stream of tears that began to wet her cheeks again
...”He seems to want to tell us that he came as a stranger, a shabby girl who was hired to take care of this Omamu, and he left with the same condition, without bringing anything we gave him, the difference is now that he is no longer a slave who owes a debt of gratitude to Susan and Dani, he went as a free man”...
The man rubbed his tears, his throat was choked with pain, his chest felt narrow. While Oma was controlling herself who wanted her to cry loudly in memory of Areta the poor woman, Oma stood her seat in a wheelchair after wiping her tears
...“Oma wants to say something that should have been talking to you for a long time, Oma postponed because Oma has no proof, Oma knows it must be difficult to make you believe in the absence of evidence, especially for Momu” ...
Rivandra opened her suit and tie, rolled up her shirt sleeves, then got up, and sat down on the edge of Oma's front bed
...“You know that I always believe in the same Oma, right?” Rivandra said with her outstretched hand holding her hand...
...Oma sighed, “Maybe not when it comes to Mauren” ...
...“So this is about Mauren Oma? What else is wrong with him? Are there any words Mauren said that offend Oma?” ...
...“Not words - he said, but his deeds” said Oma...
Rivandra began to ask what she had done again
...“Rivan, you remember Oma's first heart attack, right? At that time Oma was shocked to hear from Oma's friend who was a fellow artist first, we were not active in the world of martyrdom because of age, eroded, if Oma has long been not allowed to be active on the entertainment stage with your late Opa, but all the news we always receive, want it about old artists and new artists” ...
Rivandra listened with a faint heart, Oma took her breath, then exhaled slowly, it seemed that what Oma was trying to convey was very hard to say
...“Rivan, Oma hope you can be strong with this, and Oma asks you to promise to not freak out first, find out the real facts, even though Oma is sure the truth is one hundred percent” ...
...“Promise me first Rivan!” Decree Oma...
...Rivandra is really not calm, “Oke okay Oma, I promise”...
...Oma again sighed, “Oma was horrified from the Oma team that Mauren had a romance with a producer two years ago, they even had a child but Mauren aborted their child, honestly Rivan initially Oma did not believe, had berated Oma's friend because Oma thought he spread false news no matter how this concerns the good name of our family, but after Oma heard the explanation, Oma believed” ...
Degs..
...Rivandra's eyes bulged, Her heart seemed to stop instantly, her throat choked, “Oma sure the story was about Mauren? Mauren my wife Oma?” Rivandra's voice shakes...
...“This is what Oma is afraid of if the story is the same you or others, there must always be evidence, how can a paralyzed grandmother look for evidence? But clearly Oma sure as sure - sure as it is a fact, looking for evidence it's your job Rivan!”...
Rivandra was limp already, her chest was going down and up and down as her breathing was hunting, what madness had she just heard, Mauren had been in contact with a producer two years ago? She got pregnant and then had an abortion? So she wasn't raped but cheated on Rivandra when they were dating? Rivandra's like getting a blow right in her heart
...Oma looked at her granddaughter who was in shock, “Keep up your heart, son, because what are you going to hear is probably going to feel crazy to believe, you know who is the producer Oma meant by Rivan? He's Dave Sahid, your sister's ex-husband” ...
Ngiiiiiittt's..
Rivandra's ears instantly rang, her heart was pumping fast, her head was throbbing pain
...“Dave's? Mauren cheated on Dave? How could? So all this time he lied to me? Lying to all of us?” Rivandra's lips twitched with trembling, even in a nightmare she never met this disgusting scenario, Oma was right, this is crazy!...
...“Sister Rossy tau?”...
Oma shook her head, then stroked the proud granddaughter's hair, hoping that her touch could reduce the pain in Rivandra's heart a little
...“Rest, son, force yourself to close your eyes, Oma know this is hard, you have to lose a child then Areta, and now you have to accept the harsh reality, but you have to have the energy to fix everything, strength!” Oma said, Oma then ran the wheelchair, leaving Rivandra who was still sitting limp on the edge of the bed...
Rivandra was still digesting, compiling pieces of messy puzzles, today was very tiring for him even his head seemed to want to explode, but he was strong - strong, strong, there's something he needs to find out first.
The man then inched up from his seat, stepped hurriedly into the study, indifferent to the near-dawn time and his tired and red eyes
Arriving in the workspace, Rivandra grabbed her iPad, rushed to open the social media application Rossy had, she had borrowed it first to find out something, lucky Rossy's passcode has not changed, His brother is also not a social media activist, he only uses it for online shopping
Rivandra immediately typed Mauren's name, as an artist with a lot of fans, Mauren's social media is indeed not locked, from Mauren social media he began typing the name Adrian Patria, the search for the truth will begin with Mauren's manager.
Rivandra patiently and meticulously looked at one by one the photos Adrian displayed on his social media, there were hundreds indeed, he said, rivandra's finger continues to dance until she finds photos from two years ago, there is one photo that caught Rivandra's attention there with the title “party boss DS”, “DS, Dave Sahid?” Rivandra
In the photo there are some people who pose happily, two of them men and women are hugging friendly, and, although their faces were blurred but Rivandra was sure that the woman in the photo was Mauren, she knew very well the diamond necklace the woman was wearing, the diamond necklace that she had ordered a special model, and she had a diamond necklace, so there's no way there's gonna be the same.
Rivandra then focused on the look of the man hugging Mauren who she believed was Dave, zooming in on her photo, then closely observing, netra the man then focused on the diamond ring embedded in the middle finger of the man, he remembered very well the ring that had been a debate between Rossy and Dave, Rossy, who doesn't like Dave to wear accessories, asks Dave to open them, but Dave is reluctant.
To further reassure her, Rivandra grabs the phone in her pants pocket, quickly searches her finger for a photo gallery, then opens up a photo of Dave and Rossy that she hasn't had time to remove, and is right.. in the photo Dave is still wearing the exact same ring, my God..
Rivandra scowled her temple, then rubbed her face rough, her back she landed rough onto the back of the chair. His eyes fell again on Dave and Rossy's photo, which Areta also saw, and then Areta remembered that Dave had been at Mauren's house about two years ago, this means that everything is clear, Mauren indeed had an affair with Dave until Mauren became pregnant and decided to kill his own child.
As soon as it turns out Mauren, all his loyalty for five years of romance turned out to be in vain, he even sacrificed Areta's feelings just because Mauren, stupid as he was!
His headache was not restrained anymore, his eyes getting heavier, still with leaning on his work chair, Rivandra was closed with a broken heart melted.
