The Return of the First Wife
Chapter 1 - Accident of Leading

...༻⌘༺...

A woman walked while carrying a lot of luggage. On his right shoulder was a cell phone clamped with ears.

Altesa. A beautiful woman who is the heir to the Dewangga family. Her wealth was even greater than her own husband. Despite that, Altesa always tried to be a good wife.

"Tumben really want to pick up Azka? But good deh. I'll go straight home. I've bought meat for dinner tonight" said Altesa. He opened the back door. Then put all the groceries there.

"Be careful, baby. I'm sorry," Wildan said across the phone. She was none other than Altesa's own husband.

Forehead Altesa wrinkled. "Why are you sorry? There's nothing wrong." he responded. Felt funny with Wildan's attitude that felt different than usual. Altesa had just sat down to the steering chair.

"I love you.." instead of answering, Wildan revealed a successful telling sentence that made Altesa blush in shame.

"I love you too" Altesa replied as she hooked the youngster to the earlobe. The conversation and Wildan ended there. Altesa immediately ran the car.

Everything feels fine. Altesa was driving quietly as usual. Transportation routes are also not so jammed.

Over time, Altesa felt the car behind was very strange. I don't know why he thought the car was following him.

Altesa's forehead frowned. He tried to think positively first. But while trying to calm down, a black car suspected by Altesa suddenly squeezed.

"Hey!" yoke Altesa who did not accept. He looked towards the car. Trying to see someone driving. Nihil, Altesa could only see a man wearing a hat and mask. His face is not clear.

Altesa's worries stalled, as the mysterious car drove first. But who would have guessed, the car actually back to make a tantrum. He suddenly turned a corner and caused a truck to turn. The truck crashed into a car at a red light.

Altesa was shocked half dead. He tried hard to turn the steering wheel in order to dodge. But his efforts failed because it was too close to the truck in front.

BRACKET!

The sound of a colliding car's thumping rang out echoing. The accident did not just hit one car. But dozens of other cars. Including Altesa himself.

Altesa's car accidentally hit the back of the truck. The front of the car looks dented. The windows are broken into pieces. While the car that hit from behind, making Altesa car shifted to the edge.

The state of Altesa was now drenched with a lot of blood. He was immediately unconscious in a state of being face down to the steering wheel.

Smoke filled the air. The sirens of ambulances and police were muttering each other. The state of the city was so chaotic in an instant.

...***...

The news of the Altesa accident has reached the entire Dewangga family. They rushed to the hospital to see Altesa.

Wildan was the first to arrive. His face looks flat. He was not bothered by everything that happened to his wife.

Wildan sits in the front seat of the ER. Waiting for Altesa to be completed in surgery. He still appears to be wearing a suit and tie. With his only child named Azka.

"Well, which mother? I want to meet Mommy" cried Azka who did not know the state of the mother.

"Mother is busy. Grandma will be here soon." Wildan smiled gently as he rubbed the top of Azka's head.

"What do we want?" ask Azka.

"Mending Azka sits next to Papah. You must be tired" Wildan said. He took Azka sitting next to him.

Not long after, Ratna came. She is the mother of Altesa. From a distance, Wildan could hear the woman's cries.

Wildan sighed. He lowered his head and looked sad.

"How's Altesa doing, Wil?" ratna asked on the sidelines sobbing her tears.

"Al's still in the process of operation, Mah." Wildan replied with a sad face. He immediately hugged Ratna gently.

Azka who saw was astonished. His face showed everything. "Why is Papah the same Oma crying?" his question.

Slowly Ratna took off Wildan's arms. He immediately crouched down before Azka.

"It's okay, Ka. Everything is fine" Ratna said, wiping away the tears.

Azka nodded. He slowly received a hug from his grandmother.

Wildan and Ratna hurriedly gathered to hear the news about Altesa. While Azka, just a wander in Ratna's arms.

"We tried everything possible. The accident that befell the patient caused a brain disorder quite severe. And. I can't be sure when the patient will wake up" explained Stevan, the doctor on duty.

"What do you mean, Doc?" ask Wildan.

"Patient is in a coma. It is unlikely that he will wake up again. Given that the accident that occurred caused his nerve function to be disrupted." Stevan held onto Wildan's shoulder. I hope it can be calming.

Hearing the news, Ratna's cry broke instantly. He cried in a roar and sat on the floor.

The same thing Wildan did. He tried to calm Ratna down as much as possible. Both of them wailed for quite a while. Azka who knew nothing, so came crying.

There was no wind and rain, Altesa consciousness was snatched away in an instant. Ratna felt a deep sense of grief. He was drowning in a sobbing cry.

Some time passed. Altesa has been moved to the VIP room. He looked helpless and was surrounded by a lot of medical equipment.

Ratna continued to be on Altesa's side. While Wildan deliberately did not show the state of Altesa to the child. He just didn't want Azka to be sad.

Wildan is out of the hospital. Buy ice cream for Azka. He told the boy to sit in wait on a long bench.

Wildan was not far away. He's calling someone on his cell phone.

"good job. But I did not expect, the accident that happened could be so," said Wildan.

"You think Ivan did it on purpose?! You are too much! Now you better keep your promise!" voice of the mysterious man from across the phone.

"Just calm. I just need some time. You think taking care of an inheritance is an easy matter? Be patient..."

"If you break your promise, then I won't hesitate to leak your evil plan to the police!"

Wildan pulled the corner of his lips upwards. He replied, "You take it easy. I'll give you the advance the day after tomorrow."

Wildan and the mysterious man's conversation is over. He snorted in relief while staring at the orange sky in the afternoon.

A phone call back in. Wildan immediately sumringah when looking at the name listed on the phone screen.

"Darling, how?" ask the woman named Erma from across the phone.

"We've managed to do it, baby."

"Thank God. I'm so worried about you..."

"Just pray that our next plan can run smoothly. I'll make sure we get married soon."

"I can't wait for that moment."

"Me too..." Wildan smiled happily. The conversation and Erma ended.

Wildan slowly turned his head towards Azka. Then crouch down in front of his son.

"Darling, Papah wants to tell you" Wildan said.

"What, Pah?" Azka asked with her innocent expression.

"From now on, Mother will not see us again." said Wildan Iirih.

"Why?" ask Azka.

"Father don't know. Mother left us for no apparent reason." Wildan put on a sad face.

Hearing that, Azka's cry broke out instantly. The ice cream he was holding fell to the ground. Wildan calmed down with a hug.

"Why?...why do we stay? Why, Pah?" Azka's tears were on her cheeks.

"He'd rather have his new family than ours..." Wildan turned the facts around. He would not let Azka know how Altesa was.
