The Story of Margaretha
29

Margaretha had been silent for a long time. His gaze towards Agnes was so doubtful. Honestly, in his heart he was worried. Should he say it all, or keep lying like yesterday. However, seeing the look in Agnes' eyes that was so hopeful, Margaretha chose to be honest.

He took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. "alright. I'll tell you the truth." Margaretha went back to silence and still looked a little hesitant.

Agnes did not interrupt at all and just waited for Margaretha to continue her words. "Papa you're in jail right now."

"Oh!" Agnes exhaled a rough breath to make Margaretha again stop her speech. "It's my guess that papa is in jail right now."

"I'm sorry, Nes. I don't intend—"

"Why are you sorry? It's not your fault, Etha." Agnes cuts Margaretha's speech. "It should be like this. This is the right move."

"But, Nes .. You must be away from your father. I'm worried."

"Nothing to worry about. Relax, I'm fine. I'm luckier than you." Agnes pretends to yawn. "I'm sleepy. Go to sleep again. Take me to see papa tomorrow. Will she?"

Margaretha nodded, accepting Agnes' request. Afterwards, Agnes went to sleep on her back to Margaretha and pulled the blanket over her body. Margaretha just mendes*h long and join her body. However, when Margaretha was just about to fall asleep, she was startled by Agnes's sobbing. The silent atmosphere made the sobbing sound clear despite the gentleness.

Margaretha immediately opened her blanket and hugged Agnes tightly. That sound also died down.

"Why are you crying, Nes?" margaretha asked half a whisper. Behind the blanket, Margaretha felt Agnes' head shake weakly.

"I'm not crying" said Agnes. However, the girl's voice sounded raucous.

"Don't lie. Isn't being honest even though it hurts better than lying." Margaretha tightened her embrace.

"I'm just sad."

"You're sad that your father's in prison? Then tomorrow I'll drop the demand that your father be free, but promise me you'll always be fine" Margaretha said.

"Gee! Why did you go up once, Etha. That's not what makes me sad." Agnes moved her body so that Margaretha let go of the embrace, then she opened the blanket. Margaretha could see clearly Agnes' reddened eyes and nose as well as tears that had not completely dried up.

"Then? Tell me what makes you cry." Margaretha cupped Agnes' face and rubbed her thumb to help wipe away the girl's tears.

"I am sad for your thoughts. I just left papa a few days ago it feels very painful and entangled in longing. What about you who have to live alone without parents" said Agnes accompanied by tears.

Margaretha. However, both wet eyes were a sign that the girl was sad right now. "I'm fine and I'm used to it even though it was a very difficult and painful time in the beginning."

"I hate papa, Etha. Why did you become such a demon. But I don't know what to do either. Far away from my dad it made me sick." Agnes wiped away the tears that were rushing back.

"Mis ...."

"Etha. I don't want you to release papa just yet. Let him redeem everything. Will you accompany me while papa stays in custody?"

"Sure, Nes. I will always accompany you. I was also lonely because my best friend had a husband. If it's you, at least I have a big brother to play with." Margaretha laughed softly.

"It's so brazen. I'm your brother not a boy" Agnes said sulkingly. Margaretha's laughter sounded hard.

"let go. If we're like this, we're like lesbians" Agnes continued. As quickly as lightning Margaretha put away her hand and shuddered at the thought of a lesbian scene teasing her holy brain.

"Don't think about it, we're better off sleeping." Agnes hugged Margaretha tightly and was immediately reciprocated. They also shared a blanket. However, as she closed her eyes, Margaretha again clucked as Agnes woke her up.

"Etha, if we sleep cuddling and one bed like this, is one of us pregnant?" ask Agnes with her charms.

"God. My heart has a sister like you." Margaretha shook her head. Agnes is amazing, he says.

"Mas, I can no longer be your wife. I have to go!"

"Anjan! Never take a step out of this house! Or I won't hesitate to divorce you!" Janu's voice boomed in the living room of the man's mansion.

Anjani flutters in the doorway then turns and looks at Janu inside. There was a pain that Anjani felt and it was evident from the look of her sad eyes.

"Mas, I'm tired. You're too busy with your world, your job. Without caring about me at all. In fact, when your parents insulted me, you just kept quiet. I'm sick, Mas! My heart hurts so much." Anjani patted her chest as she felt tightness there. The clear liquid that poured out from the corner of his eye was no longer able to be dammed.

"When did my parents insult you? They just talk as they are. Be a good daughter-in-law here because they are now your family!" Janu's voice rose, while Janu's parents stood eavesdropping from behind the wall.

"Mas, I'm willing to leave the house and live with you. But truth? Your love is only for a moment, after that there is only selfishness!"

"You call me selfish, Anjani! You are selfish! Once you pass through the door of this house then you are no longer my wife!" hardik Janu's. Hoping Anjani will be scared, but he turns out to be wrong. Anjani kept walking away. No doubt at all. Janu immediately chased after the woman and seized the baby she was holding.

"Mas, this is my son! I gave birth to her!" Anjani attempts to seize the baby, but fails because Janu's parents have taken over the baby and strictly forbid Anjani from re-entering. Anjani breaks down and asks for the baby, but Janu doesn't care at all.

"Go from here! She is my daughter! And I'll never let you see him!" expel Janu. He told the security guard to drag Anjani out of his house. Afterwards, Janu shut the main door tightly without caring about Anjani's cry asking for his son to be returned.

"I'm sure you'll definitely come back to me because you can't be far from our daughter." Janu smiled cunningly as he looked at Anjani from the balcony of the room. Although not in the heart, Janu acted as if he did not care when he saw Anjani dragging a suitcase, walking away from the area of his luxury home.

Time passed, it turned out that Janu's prejudice was wrong. Anjani did not return to her at all. Janu is still waiting while babysitting his daughter alone because her parents died two months ago in an accident. Ten years later, Janu intends to find Anjani and bring her back. However, what was obtained was a surprising fact. Anjani is married to Affandra, Janu's best friend during high school. From then on Janu's heart began to heat up and become jealous of their happiness that Janu secretly saw. Janu also took revenge on them. Moreover, Janu feels like Anjani does not remember Agnes who is sickly because the woman is busy with her daughter, the fruit of love with Affandra.

"Anjani .. forgive me," muttered Janu in his deep sleep. Cold sweat had already soaked the man's forehead and face.
