Tonight it rained heavily on the capital Jakarta, water flowing gently through the windows of Hiko's room. Thundering and lightning in the sky hold humans to stay at home, looking for safety. Some residents in the capital always fret when heavy rain falls, they only one, hoping the rain is not too long and not to create flooding.


Hiko and Ruby were chatting under their blankets, discussing something on their phone screens with small laughs. Their laughter stopped when there was an incoming call on Ruby's phone, Ummi's name appearing on the screen.


“Assalamu’alaikum, Ummi.” Greetings Ruby.


“Wa’alaikumsalam, Nak.” Answer Nyai Hannah from behind the phone, “Ummi and Abi you are in Jakarta now.”


“Wah, what event, Ummi? Why not Ruby? can Ruby pick up at the airport?” ask Ruby.


“Ummi don't want you and your husband to bother, son. Ummi and abi were picked up by Ehsan, kok.” Answer Nyai


Hannah.


“What events is Ummi in Jakarta?” ruby asked her unanswered question, Nyai Hannah.


“Abi is invited specifically to attend Haul Kyai Ashori in Depok tomorrow, son.” Answer Nyai Hannah, “Seat tomorrow Ummi play to your house huh, son?”


“Truly, Ummi? Ruby was so happy that Ummi wanted to come by.”


“Iya, Son. Tomorrow Abi and Ummi stop by there, yes.”


“Tomorrow Ruby pick up yes, Ummi.”


“No need, Son. You just wait at home, yeah?”


“Ummi still remember home mas Hiko?”


“Ehsan must have memorized.” His reply Hannah was followed by a small laugh.


“Iya deh, Ruby masakin good for Abi and Ummi.” Ruby said spirit.


“Iya, Son. Thanks, yeah. Ummi hang up the phone first.” Nyai Hannah said.


“Iya, Ummi.”


“Ah yes, can greetings from Abi, Son. Abi send greetings also to your husband.” Ummi.


“Later Ruby delivers, Ummi. Greetings to Abi also yes, Ummi.”


“Iya, Son. Assalamu’alaikum.”


“Wa’alaikumsalam, Ummi.”


Ruby ended her phone call and looked at Hiko who had been expecting the conversation between her mother-in-law and her wife.


“Greetings from Abi, Mas.” Ruby Saying.

after the show they're gonna come by. Can, right?”


“Ya of course can, Ruby.” Hiko pinched the squash both cheeks


Ruby. “Tomorrow I will ask permission to go home early.”


Ruby nodded, “Iya, Mas. I'd like to ask for Abriz's, too


not working until the afternoon. I want to prepare Abi's favorite food and


Ummi.”


Hiko nodded and hugged Ruby, “Tomorrow I accompany shopping, and,


yes?”


“Still yes, Mas.” Ruby Saying.

Mentari mornings have welcomed the residents of the capital who will start their activities. Vehicles have started busy sweeping the asphalt of the road that is still wet. The rest of the rain last night made a small sparkle from the reflection of sunlight.


Matt Jhonson's Beuatiful In White tune in beautifully from Hiko's car radio, accompanying the ride


Hiko and Ruby in the middle of vehicle density. Both lyrics follow the song's lyrics, occasionally Hiko looks at Ruby gently when she is glimpsed which she thinks is suitable for Ruby.


Long journey finally they both arrived at the shooting location. Abriz still invites Ruby to meet at the location of Hiko's shooting. In addition to observing actors and actresses play roles in accordance with the character, she also wants to maintain comfort for Ruby when working with Abriz, her husband


can still keep an eye on them.


But, there was something strange about everyone's gaze when they saw the presence of Hiko and Ruby. Their gazes were so strange, especially when staring at Ruby. Of course, it makes Ruby feel uncomfortable. He repeatedly looks at Hiko, trying to figure out what happened to the crew


people around.


“Mas, I should go directly to the Abriz mas only, yes?” ruby said, she doesn't want to go any further inside anymore.


“Ku deliver, huh?” Hiko offered herself.


“No need, Mas. You go straight in.” Reject Ruby, “Toh just deket there.” Ruby pointed at the table with the busy man staring at her phone.


“Great craving for a guy, early in the morning already here. Very excited to meet people's wives.” Hiko Mumbles.


“Iya, Ruby.” Hiko smiled, ushering in his wife's departure with the glare of his sharp eyes.


Ruby approached Abriz who was still busy staring at the screen of his phone, an earphone connected


from his cell phone to his ear, his face looked as serious as it was not enjoying a song.


“Assalamu’alaikum, Mas.” Say hello to Ruby, she sat in front of Abriz.


“Eh, Wa’alaikumsalam, By.” Abriz hastily removed his earphones and turned his phone screen over the table like something was being hidden.


“What's up, Mas?” ruby asked suspiciously.


“Neg, By.” Answer Abriz, “We start yuk?” take Abriz, he turns on the tablet.


Although still suspicious, Ruby followed Abriz's willingness to directly discuss their work.


Designs between Ruby and Abriz have been matched, Ruby tries to explain the details and functions of each design detail. But he was upset that Abriz did not stop looking at him with eyes that .. I don't know!


“Mas! You horrified me what the hell!?” Sergey Ruby.


“Dengerin, coking.” As Abriz said, his gaze moved on the screen of the Ruby tablet.


Ruby closed her tablet in annoyance. “What are you hiding from me, Mom? Tell. I don't want to explain at length but you ignore.”


“I heard your explanation really, By.” Elak Abriz's.


“You can't lie, Mas.” Ruby looked in Abriz's eyes.


Abriz turned his gaze, staring at everything around him to avoid Ruby's gaze. Seeing that Ruby remembered the nervous behavior of Abriz who put down his phone in a hurry when he came earlier.


Somehow hunch Ruby wants to open her Instagram, she took her phone which was still stored in her bag.


“Bany?” Ruby was astonished when she saw more direct massages and notifications than usual.


“Don't look, By. Ignore, aja!” Without Abriz's permission to take Ruby's phone.


Ruby was amazed by Abriz's behavior, “You touched me without permission, Mas?” Protest angry.


“Sorry, By.” Abriz said, he did not fully regret his actions.


“Restore my phone, Mas.” Ruby Pinta.


“Don't see anything in sosmed, By. Please beg.” Pinta Abriz's.


“You're making me suspicious, Mom! Quickly return!” Force Ruby, “That's my hape, Mas!”


With the weight of Abriz returned Ruby's phone. Ruby also immediately opened all DM and Instagram notifications.


“Astaqfirullahaladzim!” Screaming Ruby, one hand covered her mouth.


**********


“B*NGS*T!! WHO MAKES NEWS LIKE THIS!!!”


The praaank!! Bruug!!


Hiko slammed everything around him with screams and maki-makian, making the people around him panic.


“Ko, angry will not solve all this!!” Genta tried to hold him.


“Lo find out who made this news!! I want to sue them!! Anj*ng!” Aspersion.


Genta nodded, “Lo calm down first, I will stay in lo as long as you rich gini!” Buuk Genta.


Hiko took off the clothes she was going to wear for shooting and put on her own clothes, running she went to look for Ruby. She hoped Ruby didn't know about this.


“By!” Sergeh Hiko, he took the phone in Ruby's hand.


Hiko is late, tears that accumulate in the frame of her eyes become a sign if the woman has known news about her being a victim of rape and had committed suicide.


Hiko immediately hugged Ruby, making Ruby spill her tears in Hiko's arms. The secret that he had been deepening all of a sudden appeared to the surface and was known to many people. Shame, that's for sure. Regretful, angry, he felt naked in public. The rungs of his business that were built to rise from the slump all this time suddenly shattered and made him fall just like that.


Hiko could only hug him, letting his wife cry as much as she could. Abriz could only stare at Ruby. Given that he was always curious about what happened with the scar on Ruby's left wrist, it now makes him very sorry. As bad as this is the past of his loved ones, whom he glorified, whom he judged to be a perfect woman, it turns out that he holds a very painful wound.


I'd like Abriz to find ******* that does and makes Ruby like this. If he could he would kill him, no matter what sin or the laws of this country. Even killing the ******** does not necessarily make Ruby's suffering end.


Abriz continues to curse the jerk who ruined Ruby's life.
