"Mama."
"Susan, dear Mama." The woman in her almost fifties was so happy to see the arrival of the princess. "You're finally home."
It was sad to hear the expression of Mama's longing, all this time I never cared about what Mama felt. I only think about Mas Ricko, being a good wife and keeping his feelings. Until I forget, be a good child for Papa and Mama.
"Eat ya San, Mama cook your favorite food." said Mama took me to the dining table.
I miss the atmosphere of this house, strangely why only now I feel missed. It turned out that the pain Mas Ricko created opened my eyes. All this time, I was completely blind and deaf because of my love for her.
"Cock eat a little?" Mama saw me end my meal and gulp some water.
"It's full Ma." I replied trying to be mediocre.
A moment to look around, also the room Mama who never open.
"Your father is again in the capital. Three days he said, maybe you'll come home and pick up your Mas."
"Mas Radit?"
Mama nodded. I haven't seen Papa and Mama's adopted son in a long time. Three years, what was he like?
Papa and Mama used to be difficult to get offspring, four years married, medicated everywhere, but did not go pregnant as well. Until finally adopting Mas Radit, loving as sincere as heart, even not too expect to have children of their own. Until the age of Mas Radit five, Mama was pregnant.
At 22:30. I took a warm bath, then rested in my room. "Had my marriage to Mas Ricko been sanctioned by Papa and Mama, maybe this room was both ours. In fact, even going into this room he never."
And never, after this betrayal.
I thought, I must be having fun right now because there is no me.
My tears came down again, looming back in the eye, how many red marks were on Dila's chest. And now, maybe they're doing the same thing.
I wanted to go home and catch them both. I wonder how Mas Ricko reacted. But... I also don't know how I reacted when it happened, am I capable?

Bored and tired of my race. The next day I called Kiki, my friend from college, and I waited for him at a famous restaurant.
If I remember how much stupid I was, I also left education for Mas Ricko. Somehow I thought at the time that there was nothing right that I could decide. I should have been a bachelor a year ago.
"Susan!" kiki's distinctive voice shrieked impatiently hugging me.
"Kiki." I'm no less happy to see her again since I decided to get married.
"Lu how are you?" tanya Kiki looked at my face to the end of my foot.
"Well Ki." I answered sitting followed by him.
"Thank God that you're good, fear that it's not good." the candle made me stiff.
We ordered Juice as well as our favorite food, grilled chicken sweet spicy saur and white rice.
"Where's your man?" ask Kiki again, looking at my face. I'm afraid there's a cloud in the eye patch that I can't cover.
"There, in the village of people, work." I replied.
"Lu's happy, right? Or not?" he grinned the horse.
I smiled a little, I don't know what to say. I have no friends and no one to tell stories to. I was hoping my neighbor could be made a friend like a brother, uh it turns out he prefers to be friends and brothers with Mas Ricko.
"Ricko doesn't hurt you, does he? I'd love you, if he wasn't as good as you know. His ex-girlfriend has a lot."
"If I may know, when they date it breaks because of what?" so interested want to know more, even if it is late.
"No idea either, but one of her ex-boyfriends was my cousin, and it was before your same marriage. Worse I know after you get married. Sorry the info is late."
"Well, he moved out of town because it was hard to move on."
I took a breath, massaged my forehead which felt like it was going to explode.
"Lu again there's a problem San?" repeated again.
"If I could be honest, yes. Mas Ricko changed since I miscarried the third time."
"What's? Three times?"
"Don't be hard." I looked around, some visitors were looking at us.
"Three times San?" repeat it more slowly.
"Yes." Yeah." I stirred up some orange juice and drank it.
"How do you mean to change that?" Kiki looked at me more and more curious.
"I suspect Ricko is cheating."
"Jeez San!"
"And I'm sure it's true." I continued.
"Keep, who's the actor? That's what you did?"
"Yes no, I just found out lately after seeing the state of my workshop which he said was quiet turned out rame. He kept coming out to the principal's house, but his friend said he never went there again. And worse, he cheated on me with the high school boy who was sniffing next to my house."
"Anjir, High School boy? Bener-bener the Ricko. I think he's changed after marrying Elu."
I shook my head with tears coming down again. I don't know what's going on in my house right now, or maybe Mas Ricko brought Dila to my room.
"Later in the afternoon I have to go home, I can't let them have fun in my house."
"Yes, eat Ricko. Lagian lu reckless actually want to be invited to live in far corners of the country everywhere. If I'm not good, Rich face Ricko just handsome."
"Don't say that Ki, I'm sorry about this too. So sorry even left the parents, dropped out of college, why am I so stupid at that time?"
"Don't-don't you in the pellet again." said Kiki.
"Ih, amit-amit Ki, today gini you still believe so."
"Lha the proof is you, Ricko that if you are a picky courtship that is your model, the son of a rich person, has a position and has influence. Could be he's out of you."
"Dah ah, eat." I'm upset I can't believe, I'm not sure Mas Ricko is like that.
"So far from your village?" tanya Kiki started pitting the spoon on her plate.
"Four hours is."
"There's lodging?"
"Lu want to come?" ask me to guess what Kiki means.
"Yes, I'd like to see how the chili-cabean face that made Ricko look away."
"So because of that, don't you want to help me?"
"Yes help you out, I just want to know too. Not that Ricko's taste is always high, how can be smitten with the girl in the village there. The village chief's son?" guess Kiki.
"No, he's a farm boy. Not the people." My answer made Kiki's forehead wrinkle.
