Such a spinning wheel is the world, we cannot be forever in happiness and not forever in suffering.
It is also being experienced by someone, the fate that befell Rendra a few years ago, the company he built desperately must collapse like a cruel karmic blow for his actions. Yes, the affair scandal that he committed for his own stupidity, did not let him live quietly. All the savings, assets, and all the valuable things disappeared to pay for the loss. It's true that the saying goes, "By the side of a man's success, there's a great woman behind him." It was also experienced by Rendra himself, all his success in the past was not immediately separated from the support of Anika who at that time was still his wife.
The effort built in a limelight with his wife was also destroyed, as broken as the heart of the woman he threw out heartless. Now that his life is so alarming, the once haughty and cruel man now lives like a meaningless dust, he has to go in and out of a company to ask for mercy, he tries to seduce his former colleagues to give him a job, but unfortunately after the news that circulated about his affair, the person he once thought of as a friend instantly changes like an unknown person. Haha, that is how karma goes, slowly giving darkness to the haughty and cruel soul.

"Package!" There was a male voice that was still accompanied by the sound of a motorbike engine that stopped in front of Anika's house.
"Rizi, please accept my package yes. I still bother with this." Pinta Anika to one of her works, happens to be a shop holiday, but Anika asks one of her works to help her.
"I'm sorry, but this is my friend who pesen cake." Rizi replied with a guilty look while showing the phone screen in her hand showing a call.
"Oh, that's okay." Anika smiled then moved from her seat to the front of the house to approach the package courier who had been waiting for her since.
Slowly Anika opened the door of her house, then I don't know what happened, as soon as her body stared and shook violently. Not inferior to Anika, the courier was very surprised even the package he brought until it fell to the floor.
"Anger!"
"Renra!" Both said simultaneously.
Silence is created between the two, after being both silent for a while, Rendra finally with a movement moved he took the package he dropped earlier. It also made Anika realize from her silence, she looked the other way to hide her strange feelings.
"So... You guys moved here?" Rendra ventured to ask carefully.
"Yes, I mean you and the Emperor." Answer Rendra.
"Oh, yes we are back in this city, my hometown."
Rendra was seen smiling broadly as he looked at the package in his hand and then said, "I thought the name written on this package just happened to be the same as you, so I had no fear or anything, but it turns out this name is really yours."
Five years is not a short time to heal one's inner wounds, Anika has been struggling to eliminate the trauma of her past, after all the feelings are already in her control, why did the man who was the deepest wound have to appear again in front of Anika? It was as if the universe was playing with the feeling of the middle-aged woman.
Anika did not respond to Rendra's words, she instead asked another thing, "Are you tired of being an entrepreneur until you change profession to a package courier?"
The smiling Rendra then shook his head and replied, "This is my job now, I am not a businessman anymore, but I am Rendra the package courier." He answered with a small laugh
Seeing Anika just silent in confusion, Rendra then explained, "After the events of that time, I lost everything Ika, family, business, all of them left me one by one. And what I regret the most is that I lost the figure of the great woman who stood by me for a dozen years and also a dashing son whom I was very proud of." Rendra explained with a faint smile, but the look in her eyes could not lie, she harbored such deep regret.
"There is nothing eternal in this world Rendra, all we need to do is do our best at this second. A regret can never change a situation, most importantly in the future, we do not make the same mistake."
Rendra nodded at Anika's words, "You're right Ika, sorry even now it's no use, I deserve all this."
"Well, here's your package, sorry it fell, is it safe?" Rendra handed the package to Anika.
"Yes, it's just safe clothes." Anika replied while receiving the package offered by Rendra.
Like most couriers, Rendra had to take a photo of the recipient as proof. Of course Anika did not mind, because she understood it was one form of procedure from Rendra's work. And this is also not the first time Anika must be asked for photos when receiving the package. With trembling hands, Rendra took a photo of the middle-aged woman who had become his ex-wife.
