The Roof You Promised

The Roof You Promised
Part 54 - Look at Rae


Once again Megumi jerked, her chest felt tight, her breathing seemed to run out. I don't know what else he can say now.


Megumi just lowered her head deeper and deeper, the half-dead cry she was holding, was now a sob.


"Now it's up to you. You want a divorce, I'm fine. I'll let go of Haidar too. Likewise, if you want to maintain this household, I will accept it with a spacious chest. I told you, I love Haidar so much." Herjuno took a slow breath.


"But our relationship? It's not going anywhere. In this house I will only act as Haidar's father, not as your husband."


Herjuno straightened his body. Looked at Megumi for a moment.


"Let's make peace. We failed to be a happy couple. But at least let Haidar be happy."


After saying that Herjuno passed towards his office. Leaving the increasingly sobbing Megumi alone.

Herjuno held the elevator door shut. He saw that some people were half running to get into it. He returned the smile of someone who looked down politely as a thank you.


Several people who followed entered, making Herjuno retreat a few steps to the elevator wall.


The tip of his eye caught the figure of Dea who entered the elevator last. The woman was seen chatting with someone using her mobile phone.


"alright. Take care of yourself and the kids. I'm closed." Dea's voice was clearly heard in Herjuno's ears due to the quiet atmosphere of the elevator.


Hid. Herjuno is throbbing even if only in the heart. Somehow he seemed to be able to confirm that the one talking to Dea across the street was Aurorae.


When the elevator stops, Dea comes out first. Herjuno walked slowly to create a greater distance with Dea.


"How's Aurorae doing? Is she okay?" Tania who suddenly appeared out of nowhere, grabbed Dea's shoulder.


"hum. He's good." Dea smile.


"Ah, I miss him. That kid completely forgot me."


Dea chuckles. He knows, Aurorae does not want to cut off the access of his friends. It's just that, the poor woman was not confident since she decided to become the second wife of her superior.


"Why ask Dea that woman? Farhan must have known more." Herjuno who suddenly passed by Dea and Tania spoke without turning his head.


Dea and Tania reflex stopped their steps. Staring at Herjuno's back.


"Basic is not sane." Dea muttered annoyedly.


Herjuno. Staring at Dea was hateful. "You said something?"


"You! Not sane!" Dea tightened her voice making Herjuno tickle.


"Saga your limits. I'm ad-"


"I told you already, if it's not about work don't talk to me. Once again I hear you speak ill of the Aurorae, I will no doubt strangle you before everyone. Being fired? Doesn't matter. After ripping your neck and making sure you can't talk again, I'm gonna turn myself over to the police."


Dea stared intently at Herjuno. Move closer to getting in front of the man.


"You're really disgusting." The last sentence before Dea passed by Herjuno just like that.


Everyone who was there was only silent, staring no less annoyed at Herjuno.


Only Maudy who looked down hid her face behind the cubicle while giggling happily.


"Well, Madam Dea is indeed the best." he muttered softly as he continued to chuckle.

Time just passed by , today is the continued trial of Herjuno and Aurorae's divorce.


Unlike the first trial that was not attended by anyone from the defendant's side, today Herjuno saw Gumilar with a man, possibly his lawyer.


"Dad.." Herjuno came closer to say hello.


"How are you?" Gumilar received Herjuno's hand.


"Not good." Herjuno. He has great respect for Gumilar. Although Aurorae was his only child but Gumilar never crossed his boundaries to interfere in Aurorae's domestic affairs with Herjuno.


"Like your marriage to Aurorae was destiny, this divorce was so. After this, I hope you're happy even if you're not together."


Herjuno nodded his head while looking at Haru Gumilar. His eyes are already glazed. Especially when suddenly Gumilar hugged him.


"Dad understands your situation. Dad doesn't blame you. Whatever happens, live your life well. A hum?"


he said patting Herjuno's back.


Herjuno was all his might to hold back his cries.


Look, Rae. Your deeds.
