The Light At the End of Dusk
Chapter 1 (Birth Mother's Rejection)

When there is no pole to lean on, there is still a floor to prostrate on. When everyone is away, remember that we still have Allah SWT who will always be there for His people.

One hard slap now landed on the smooth cheek of Light.

Light never thought that his own mother had rejected his presence at the first time of their meeting.

"Is this your welcome to the Son You've thrown away?" tanya Light with tears from feeling the pain in her heart.

"Close your mouth, My child is only one, Dusk, so you do not claim to be my Son, and you should leave here," said Mama Sita.

"What's wrong Light Ma? why does Mama hate the Light so much?" tanya Light with a crush at Mama Sita's feet.

"You are the unlucky child, your presence I never wanted" said Mama Sita.

Mama Sita is reminded of the tragedy that happened 23 years ago.

That night Sita who was still sitting in second grade High School was alone at home. During this time Sita lived with her Big Brother named Indira and also her Husband named Hilman, because both parents Sita and Indira had died five years ago due to an accident.

Indira is currently going out of town for a business trip for one week and will only return tomorrow, so Sita only lives alone with her brother-in-law named Hilman.

When the time has shown at eleven o'clock at night, Sita is so frightened because Hilman has not yet returned from work, because Hilman first attended a dinner from his business partner.

"Why hasn't Mas Hilman come home yet? though this already wants midnight," muttered Sita who was terrified.

A while later Sita heard a knock on the door, but Sita was afraid to open it.

"Who are these nights that knock on the door" muttered Sita who first peeked through the window.

"Love, open the door" said Hilman who was drunk, because his business partner forced Hilman to drink alcoholic beverages, even though Hilman never consumed it so that Hilman was currently drunk badly.

"Thank God it turns out that Mas Hilman has come home, but why did Mas Hilman call Kak Indira's name, did Mas Hilman forget that Kak Indira just came home tomorrow," muttered Sita, then opened the door for Hilman.

"Mas, why just go home now, when Sita is afraid," said Sita when she opened the door.

"Did you miss me, baby?" ask Hilman who thinks that Sita is Indira.

"Well, why does it smell like alcohol?" ask Sita by helping to get Hilman to her room.

During this time Hilman has considered Sita as his own biological sister, because Hilman is an only child, so Hilman really loves Sita, as well as Sita who always wants to have an older brother, and sometimes the closeness of Hilman and Sita always makes Indira jealous.

Hilman and Indira's marriage has been going on for three years, but Indira still has no signs of pregnancy.

Sita now helps Hilman to lie on his mattress, then helps Hilman take off the shoes that are still attached to his feet.

At the time Sita was about to get out of Hilman's room, Hilman suddenly pulled Sita's body so that Sita fell on the bed, then Hilman just crushed her.

"Love, I love you so much, tonight I want you dear" Hilman said with his eyes clouded, then brutally assaulted Sita.

"Mas, please let me go, realized Mas, I'm Sita not Indira's sister," said Sita who had cried in fear because Hilman continued to fondle her.

"Hilman who still thinks that Sita is Indira was already impatient to vent his desires, so he tore the clothes that sita wear, and finally Hilman took away the sanctity of Sita.

Hilman vented his passion many times to Sita until finally Sita fainted because she could not bear the pain in her sensitive area.

Hilman who was satisfied was now asleep next to Sita.

......................

The next morning Hilman woke up with a dizzy head, then he was so shocked to see Sita who was now beside him without wearing a thread.

"What have I done to Sita, why can I do it to the woman whom I consider to be my own sister. How about if Indira finds out, she will definitely get hurt and will ask for a divorce from me" muttered Hilman in tears as he regretted all his actions.

Hilman decided to cleanse himself first after he had covered Sita's body.

After finishing cleaning up, Hilman checked the situation of Sita who was still unconscious from her stupor.

"Sita, wake up De, sorry Mas Hilman who has taken away your chastity," muttered Hilman by shaking Sita's body, but Sita did not wake up yet.

"Did Sita faint? how is this, I can not call the Doctor, because the Doctor will definitely know all my actions," muttered Hilman then took eucalyptus oil and stick it on Sita's nose.

A while later Sita opened her eyes, then recalled the events that had happened last night.

Sita immediately cried hysterically when she saw Hilman, because she recalled the sad incident that happened to her last night.

"Why Mas could have done all that to Sita, Mas Hilman had destroyed Sita's life," said Sita by covering her body with a blanket.

"Sita, sorry Mas, Mas is really sorry, Mas thinks that you are Indira," said Hilman then hugged Sita tightly, although many times Sita refused.

Right now Sita could only cry lamenting the unfortunate fate that had befallen her.

Sita continued to think about Indira's feelings that would be destroyed if she knew her husband's actions, so Sita finally raised her voice.

"We should forget the incident last night, let's just say nothing happened between the two of us," said Sita then ran towards her room wearing a blanket to cover her body.

Hilman increasingly regretted his actions when he saw the blood spots of Sita who was still attached to the bed sheet.

"I have to how, there is no way I married Sita to account for all my actions," muttered Hilman then ruffled his hair violently.

Hilman eventually picked up one by one Sita's clothes that were still scattered on the floor, and he also washed the bed linen that bore witness to the crown of Sita that had been forcibly snatched by her due to the influence of alcoholic beverages.

......................

A few hours later, Indira came home from out of town, and Hilman now opened the door for Indira.

"Lho, aren't you at work?" ask Indira who saw her husband at home.

"Mas is not feeling well baby, so Mas skipped work," replied Hilman lying, when in fact Hilman woke up bad luck after the heat struggle last night.
