Shackles the Heart of the Police Officer
CHAPTER 09 - Belief is Infidelity

"Welcome, ma'am..." Marwah at the front door.

It was a cold night, Erin came home in bad shape. The bag was directly slammed forward, his face was tangled, his mood shrinking this time.

"Cowardly man," Erin snorted as she took off her coat to the sofa. "Running away from me. Am I no longer honored as his wife?"

"Big cowardly men?" Marwah whispered, wondering what his master was talking about.

Erin turned around, then obeying her premonition she pulled her right hand while bending over while the black coat that had been removed was already limp on the sofa. He cursed, narrowed his eyes, and looked directly into the eyes of Marwah as he had done this morning at the dinner table.

It was shocking, but Erin again seemed to be staring at him straight away.

"You?" This time Erin spoke again. While rising slowly, Erin remained tightly clenched her fingers and took one step closer to Marwah. "Who are you really? Where did you come from?"

This couldn't have happened, Erin got angry and asked. Sure surprised Marwah for a moment. Could it be that Erin was directly suspicious of him?

"I-I mean ma'am?"

"Who are you?!!! come from where?"

"I am Marwah ma'am, I came from a small village at the end of town. Work here because the husband is unemployed again, happens to get info from relatives if there are people who need a Household Assistant."

Instantly Erin dropped her body on the end of the sofa, and ended her burning emotions. A second later, he found himself back in frustration. He started crying while scratching his already messed up head.

Marwah approached, and Erin looked up at him who did not seem okay.

"Mom's okay? need anything?"

Erin exhaled and tried to control the emotional turmoil in her soul. He began to set the center of attention on Marwah. Get out of the trouble he had experienced before entering the house, and this time he felt as if he had someone who cared about him at home.

"You're married, you're not the one." Erin replied while wiping away the tears. "Mr this morning, what time did Marwah go to work?"

"Around 9, ma'am."

"There are suspicious moves from him after I leave? maybe a call with someone else, or a woman stopped by here?" Erin asked both times.

Marwah shook her head, that was all she could do now. Anxious shrouded, but he was also unable to say anything to the present situation. Has something happened out there between Om gondrong and Miss Erin? until Ms. Erin was frustrated like this when she got home. Could it be that Om Gondrong had cheated on his wife before me? I don't think so, but Om seems to have shown nothing to Erin's mom. Marwah guessed in her heart.

"I'm like a madman Marwah. Lately my husband has been like an emotional demon. He changed completely, easily getting angry was even just a small matter. Even just now, when I called, he was silent, and then it was turned off. I'm like the one who begged him for a heart." Erin explained with emotions that Marwah could understand very well as a woman.

"I could really go crazy if we kept going like this. He was often angry, because of our domestic affairs, for him I was not careful to take care of him and the house. Fine! now you've taken care of it all, but he's still the same, even worse proof just now when I was on my way home. I asked to pick her up, but she didn't talk a bit, just turn off the phone. I'll wait for him for two hours Marwah!" Reveal Erin, still with the same emotions, still with the same tears.

"Mom," Marwah bowed. Equalled his position on Erin on the sofa. "I don't mean to interfere.But mom can try to talk carefully first with dad about this problem. Can't problems be solved when we talk to each other? maybe you have a reason for up to two hours not to pick up mom. If you've spoken with a cold head, you'll find a way out later." Marwah tried to convince him.

But Erin is reluctant to hear, she is still convinced by the prejudice that Rambo has indeed had a mistress, because of the change in attitude shown by Rambo to 360 degrees.

"Look! if this hunch of mine is true, I'll kill them both at once. I made them crumble, as broken as my heart and my feelings." Erin.

Marwah was silent, never did she tremble so great. This time, he was terrified of his own life choices. Exhaust his empathy for what happened to Erin, Rambo's wife just now. As if he was enjoying the happiness of being united with his old love with Rambo, while Erin was frustrated and crazy with the bad assumptions of Rambo's attitude.

Marwah muttered, she has been evil as a woman. But on the one hand, is it wrong for him to unite with Rambo. They love each other, only slightly different circumstances until they have not been able to be together openly, they need to wait for time to be able to both separated from the current marriage. After all, Rambo couldn't possibly turn away if Erin treated him well. Marwah dared to testify to that, Rambo never lived happily with Erin.

"Marvah... "

Upon hearing the voice, Marwah realized from her daydream. His gaze froze, as soon as he found Erin's soft hand holding her fingers expectantly.

"Yes, mom?"

"I know we're new to it and I'm actually exposing our household problems to you, because I really don't know what to do with it, as a fellow woman, I'm sure you know very well what my worries and suspicions are like. That's why I really need your help, help me to keep an eye on you. Tell me if there's anything suspicious while I'm outside, help me find out about your affair. I promise I'll pay you extra!"

"Good ma'am, I'll work on it." Answer Marwah.

Marwah muttered again; is Erin really that bad wife? Or is Om gondrong not patient enough to face the ugliness and indulgence of his wife? or is Om gondrong too weak to face the demands of his parents, so forced to follow the plot and we are stuck in this complicated relationship?

What kind of relationship is this? they do love each other, but being in a relationship above other relationships, does it not damage the purity of love itself?

Then what about Marwah himself, if he had to step down and return Rambo to Erin, his wife? Ah, poor indeed she loved and was loved by someone else's husband. The husband belonged to a woman whose everything far exceeded Marwah's own luck. Or perhaps, it is precisely the simplicity of Marwah desired by Rambo? Could be.

What is clear now, they have struggled with a world that is too complicated and abstract, so they forget about daily life that is more natural and simple.
