Rangga's Beloved Wife
At the police station

"You accompany Bagas, dear. Let me take care of mama." said Rangga while staring at Laras. Rangga was afraid that Laras would not be able to meet the people who had oppressed him.

"Mas, I'm still coming. Because I'm the victim here. I must be a strong witness to their deeds." Laras took his bag while saying goodbye to his son.

"But you look pale. After last night you met them. I don't want you to drop." Laras remained steadfast with her husband.

"Mas, here's the victim, I. I'm sorry I didn't mean to see my mom in custody. But I also want Ratna and Bude Endang to be punished according to their deeds."

"Darling, I'm just afraid that hearing their information will open up your trauma again. I just don't want you to think much." Rangga is still trying to persuade Laras not to come to the police station.

Not only that, he was afraid that his mother even went berserk blaming Laras. It is wrong indeed, where he has to defend his wife, while his mother is a suspect position. Rangga returned in a frenzy, but he was sure the truth would show his fangs.

"Yuk, umm." Laras was already sitting sweetly next to the driver, next to her husband. Rangga again reminded Laras. He was sure he would meet his mother. Nodding the head from Laras makes Rangga directly turn on the engine of his car.

Rangga drove his car at a moderate speed. For a while he refused to open his voice. Laras who was still in her seat was waiting for her husband to tell her. He also did not expect that the police arrested his mother-in-law.

"I'm sorry, this might sound heavy to you. But I'm sure this matter will teach mom a lesson. Mom, you know that a lot of what you do is just to keep us apart. I don't know what was going through my mom's mind at the time. I also cannot determine what punishment my mother deserves. Let the authorities rule all this."

"I don't blame you, baby. I just still feel shocked by all this. I'm afraid papa Donal drops again. You didn't forget that papa just got out of the hospital recently."

Barrel rubbed the nape of her husband's neck. Trying to calm down the still shocked Rangga

"Mas, just drive first we'll discuss further."

Rangga nodded and refocused on the steering wheel. Although he is still raging, but he must also prioritize self-safety. He did not want the tragedy that had befallen him to repeat itself.

A few minutes later they arrived at the police station. Rangga went down first in after Laras. They entered the police station.

"Sir, where's my mama." asked Rangga.

"Your mom?" the officer is confused.

"Great Mother who has just been arrested" replied Rangga.

"Oh, Bu Raya Pattimura. In the interrogation room." Police showed the interrogation room.

Sayup-sayup Rangga heard the sound of his mother crying. They asked as if indiscriminately, but there should be no need to be rude considering that the Kingdom was already 60 and above. After waiting for a while, the door of the interrogation room was opened. When Raya came out she was a little surprised.

One of the policemen approached Laras "Are you the one named Larasati?"

"Yes, sir. Can I help you?" ask Laras.

Rangga was willing to hold Laras to be taken to the interrogation room. But Laras assures me everything will be fine. He just complied with the police's request. At least she'll try to ease her mother-in-law's problems.

The barrel went into a room where the three women were already sitting inside. One of the officers asked if Laras knew the three women.

"I know all three sir. These two women came to my house claiming to be relatives. Then they stayed a few months and ran away with my parents' home certificate. Why are they the only two detained, why Najwa is not arrested" said Laras.

"I beg you not to involve Najwa. He doesn't know anything. I beg you not to bring Najwa into this matter." Endang prostrated at the foot of Laras.

"You're a mother, right, Race. You must know what it's like to see your son dragged into a problem he didn't do." Endang still begging at the feet of Laras.

The silent barrel does not budge. Where all this time he had to live hanging because his home in sita debt gambling collectors. Endang who yesterday very cornered himself while in the tree house. Now it looks shrunk. Laras turned his gaze towards the young lady in front of him.

"Ratna," said Laras.

"Sorry, Ras. I was only paid by your in-laws." replied Ratna sounding soft.

The head of the barrel is like being hit by a large rock. It felt like his chest was tight. Even though she knew that the mastermind of all this was the mother-in-law. Somehow the shock still greeted him.

He should have continued to brief the authorities. But now his world seems to be collapsing. The disappointment he had forgotten was now felt again.

"Honey," Rangga held Laras' nearly collapsed body.

"I'm sorry mom, Race. I'm not asking you to drop the charges or release Mama. I ask you to forgive my mother. I know what he's been doing all this time is wrong. I know ..." The barrel placed her index finger on her husband's lips.

"From now on you keep apologizing, ma'am. I don't expect an apology from you. But I want to hear from my mom. I didn't expect Mama to do any of this, Mom. Mom's actions have gone too far. When it comes to savings, I'm still sincere. Because it's also money from your family. But about mom's house, which has nothing to do with you. Why should it hit."

"That's because mama's still jealous of your mother, Ras." baritone's voice rang out from the opposite direction.

Laras and Rangga stood up to welcome the man who came to them. Laras and Rangga greeted a figure who was like his own father.

"Papa," said the two together.

"Laras, you didn't forget that I was in a relationship with your mother. Ever since you came to our family, I feel Mala is coming back to life. Maybe that's why Mama Raya behaved like that. Forgive me, because I often compare mama Raya with Mala make it like this.

Your mother is envious because Oma often refers to Mala as a good woman in the eyes of the family. Papa once took my mother to a psychiatrist, because she was often angry with you.

Papa knew everything my mother did at the time. Even though you left home. He's still spying everywhere. Including about your closeness to your boyfriend, named Adul.

I'm sorry papa, son. Can't be a good husband for Mama Raya. Papa hasn't been able to educate her, papa has failed to be a husband." Donald prostrated at the foot of the barrel.
