The busyness of the waiters in the morning has become a routine alarm in the morning. Once again, this sweet girl carries out her role as wife and daughter-in-law. Like a great artist he performs his duties without arousing suspicion of his in-laws. Although sometimes get eyes full of hate on him. But for the sake of the old woman who kept a mountain of hope on him, Pingka was forced to swallow that bitter pill for granted.
The days as a wife passed by the woman in a different way from marriage based on compulsion, when he switched responsibilities, he tried to run everything willingly even though sometimes thousands of thorns and needles were ready to stab at any time because he refused. As usual, Pingka did ordinary activities without being suspected by her mother-in-law.
"Pingka, let's have breakfast ! For a week I've never seen you eat together. Don't you like Mom ?" Mother Erly asked softly there was guilt in her heart after this forced marriage.
"No, Ma. I love Mom. Just like my real mother and Aunt Halimah. It's not that I don't want to eat with Mom, but I'm used to eating when I get out of bed." Pingka reasoned again.
"Areally so ?" Ask Erly's mother to make sure.
"Yes, Mom ! Mother eat me go to work let the plate here later. Bi Weni permission to go to the village today. Sorry for not dropping off Mom later." Gentle Pingka.
"Dear baby, heart-heart on the way" Erly's mother patted the back of her daughter-in-law's hand full of affection.
Pingka left the dining room with guilt, the lie she created deepened and widened. Repeatedly his heart said sorry for the dishonest that actually happened.
Pingka down the road to the bus stop. The woman was no longer using a wig after being forcibly removed by Rangga at that time. With an excited lethargic face he entered his room.
"Hi Pingka !" Dimas said hello sitting in the work chair belonging to Pingka.
"Sir Dimas, are you here? What's my work desk doing?" Pingka replied to Dimas' greeting in a flat and cold tone.
"Waiting for you !" Dimas stared inside the bead of the woman's eyes that had stolen some of his heart.
"For what? Don't get me in trouble Mr. Dimas !"
"Don't be afraid, I'm just taking you to lunch and I have a job today with your boss, I'll pick you up." Dimas said with a smile.
Pingka had not had time to answer that man had left the place. Ravita and Dinda just to see Dimas out of the room Pingka.
"Well, look at this bouncer woman. Not just teasing my ex-boyfriend. But also start playing far flirting with Mr. Endra's business partner." Sardonic Dinda folded her two hands on her chest.
"So your words, Dinda !" Reply Rangga who just entered.
Dinda smiled sweetly and entered her room. Ravita approached Pingka who had been just silently accepting words from Dinda.
"Don't mind." Ravita grabbed the shoulder of her best friend.
...----------------...
They started their work quietly as usual. Pingka can always limit personal problems with the office. A few hours of work at lunch.
"Pingka, let's have lunch !" Dimas stood in front of the door with Sandi.
Endra disliked the situation because of Dimas's coercion that he finally relented to go to the room where his wife worked.
"Sorry, Sir. I can't, I'll have lunch with Ravita." Crossed Endra's words at that time like a warning alarm for him.
Disappointment pinched the outskirts of Dimas' heart, a forced smile given to the woman. "Well, next time there's no rejection. I look at you the same as the others do not look to your origins. So don't be ashamed to be friends with me." His words said meaningfully.
Pingka nodded. "Thank you for understanding, sir".
Why do you have to shut yourself up like this Pingka ?
Dimas and the others left Pingka's room. Disappointed heart covered with a joke with Sandi.
...****************...
These three handsome men became the center of attention of every female visitor, not a few sentences of praise they said. Feel uncomfortable ? Certainly not. They love to be the attention of every woman.
"Why do you care so much about that lady ?" Endra put the phone on the desk asking in a dismissive tone.
"If she's a hick, but her beauty and attitude are different in general women." Dimas also put down his phone.
"Don't be affected by her innocent face." Endra talks like an ultimatum.
Dimas gave an understatement smile. "I'm not affected, I like it. The tough woman I had never met, that night when a knife almost pierced her skin, the pale face withstanding the pain did not look frightened. Even screaming for help." His words glanced back at the events of that night.
"Kissue ?" Endra repeated the word with a slightly surprised face.
"Yes, I don't understand. Did he have a lover or not? But obviously that guy is stupid ! Leave it alone in the middle of the night. Because I'm sure of him it's impossible to get out in the middle of the night so." Dimas looked at the arrogant man with a glare of sharp eyes.
Endra clenched his hands in annoyance, the foolish man Dimas meant was himself indirectly. Their food came, the little debate came to a halt. However, while enjoying the food arrived - arriving from a place not far away there was a woman cursing other women loudly.
"It's good that you're here, I'm looking for you on purpose ! You know, HAH ! Because of you ! Hendri wants to divorce me !"
Yes, that comes with carrying emotions is Rania Pingka's best friend in the village. A friend who has betrayed by marrying his fiancee.
Rania's loud voice makes them the center of attention of people. These three men also removed the spoon from each other's hands after finding out who the female opponent was cursing.
"Bring!" Dimas and Sandi wanted to stand up
"Let !" Endra stops the movement of Sandi and Endra
Pingka and Ravita are still casually spending the rice on the plate regardless of Rania's emotion at the top of the sweet potato.
"Basic woman teaser ! Hendri my husband ! Why are you still tempted too ?! Even you attended our wedding" Rania reminded.
"I remember ! And remember very much ! Marriage on the basis of that betrayal, I haven't even forgotten your sweet smile when I gave me the invitation card !"
Treacheries...
Endra put his ears as sharp as his sharp.
"So, he was betrayed. Damn you ! I wondered who the man who threw away the beautiful work of God." Dimas clenched his hand.
Pingka pulled Ravita's hand to leave the place. Rania growled and pushed Pingka from behind, the body immediately plunged forward. Before touching the floor. Two heavy hands supported him from the front.
"Looks."
"Hendry."
Say them simultaneously. Dimas and Sandi stood up again from where they were sitting. While Endra was just a spectator in his chair.
The man holding Pingka's body is Hendi. The fiancee who betrayed him. With inaccurate evidence, Hendri must have dumped Pingka and married Rania.
Pingka brushed off the rough hand of Hendri who looked at her full of longing. "Sorry to make a fuss" he said to the cafe owner and waltzed away from there.
"Pingka, Wait ! I'm sorry. I'm guilty... I framed Pingka, I'll divorce her." Hendri pulled the woman's wrist holding her back to leave.
From far away Dimas was furious to see Hendri touch Pingka "He was apparently the man." He looked at Hendri's face from his chair.
"Dele !" Pingka pulled her hand rough
"I still love you, come back to me." Hendri said expectantly.
Pingka stared at the two male eyeballs - the man was sharp and cold, there was no more warmth or love there. A smile and a cheerful face upon meeting were already invisible, there was only a flat face without expression.
"Must be back" Chirps Endra smiled disdainfully at Pingka.
"Unfortunately, the clock hand rotates from right to left instead of from left to right."
Pingka answered briefly so as to shock Endra. While Dimas smiled with satisfaction it turned out that Pingka rejected the man firmly.
"You're right Pingka, the clockwork will rotate from right to left, not left to right, lost time will not come back again." Said Sandi smilingly staring outside the cafe where the shadow of Pingka had disappeared.
Endra tried to watch, but was unable to. However blinded by his hatred, Pingka's good side could not be seen.
