The Wife You Divorced
Aluna's hatred of Monika

This morning, Adnan and Monika were ready to go to the office. They went down the stairs and walked up to the dining room.

"Good morning Aluna" said Monika after she reached the dinner table.

Aluna who was greeted, only glanced at Monika. After that he continued to eat bread and drink milk.

Aluna got up from her seat.

"Aluna, where are you going?" ask Adnan.

"I want to go to Pa's school" replied Aluna with a visibly annoyed face.

"Who are you going to school with? papa and Mama Monika haven't had breakfast."

"I can get Pa, go to school by myself on a bike."

"Aluna, you never set out on your own bike. You always go with Papa. I don't like riding my own bike to school. Your school is far away Aluna. You'll be tired of riding a bike."

"But I can get Pa to go alone. Because I don't want to go with Aunt Monika."

Adnan and Monika were shocked when they heard the reply from Aluna.

"Aluna, don't be like that. Aunt Monika is now your mother. You have to respect him. And from now on, you don't call Aunty again. You have to learn to call Aunt Monika Mama" said Adnan asserted.

"But I don't want to have a new Mom Pa. I only want Mama Mila," said Aluna.

"Aluna, what are you talking about?!" Apparently Aluna's speech made Adnan emotional.

Adnan clenched his hands furiously while staring at Aluna sharply. Meanwhile, Monika, can only rub the chest of Adnan's field, trying to calm Adnan's heart.

Aluna's commotion with Adnan was heard all the way to the kitchen.

Ms. Retno, who had been struggling in the kitchen since, hurriedly stepped into the dining room to see what was happening there.

"What is Adnan?" ask Miss Retno.

Adnan looked at his mother.

"Aluna is hard to say, Mom. She didn't want to call Monika Mama. He's still calling Aunty aja" explained Adnan.

Ms. Retno sighed deeply and smiled.

"Sabar Adnan, his name is also not used. Aluna will get used to it. It's Aluna."

Aluna nodded. His eyes looked teary as Adnan scolded him.

"She, I want to ride my bike to school. I don't want to be with Papa."

"Well, if Aluna wants to go alone. But be careful, yes" said Ms. Retno.

As much as possible Bu Retno tried to defend Aluna in front of Adnan and Monika. He did not want to, make sad his favorite grandson.

"Adnan, let Aluna ride her own bike. I'm sure Aluna can go on her own. Aluna is already good."

"But Ma'am, I'm worried that Aluna's leaving alone. He is usually the same as me. I'll go home too."

"Already Adnan. Let it. Let Aluna be independent."

"Yes it is up to Aluna" said Adnan..

Finally Adnan let his son go on his own bike.

The break bell rings. Aluna is out of her class. Aluna looked towards the school gate. Aluna was shocked when she saw her mother standing in front of her school. Aluna smiled as she ran over to her mother.

"Mama" said Aluna after being near Mila.

Mila looked back. Mila smiled as she saw Aluna was already behind her.

"Aluna," said Mila while squatting to align her body with Aluna's body.

"How are you, baby?" ask Mila.

"Aluna, Mama is very happy with you, dear" said Mila. He hugged Aluna tightly.

"Mama, I miss Mama too. Mama where to. Why did you never come here" said Aluna in her mother's arms.

They hugged while crying. They have not met for a long time. Because just this time, Mila went to Aluna school again after a long time she disappeared from the life of Adnan and Aluna .

Mila took off her embrace while wiping her tears. She then held onto her two child's shoulders and looked at him fixedly.

"Sorry, my dear Mama. My mom has been busy lately. Mama's just coming here."

"Where are you going?"

"Actually, Mama wants to go to the Supermarket with Holy Mother. But Mama misses you. So Mama stopped by here first."

Aluna shed her tears. She then grabbed Mila's hand and grasped it tightly.

"Ma, can't I come with Mama. I want to stay with Mama. I don't want Ma, stay with papa. Papa is now married to Aunt Monika. And I don't like Papa marrying Aunt Monika."

Mila was shocked when she heard her son's words.

"Why don't you like Aunt Monika?" ask Mila.

"Because Aunt Monika is evil."

"What evil?"

"He used to piss me off and snap at me."

"Why don't you just take your child to Mil's mother's house" said Holy Mother suddenly.

Mila looked at the Holy Mother and got up.

"Holy Man."

"Your son will come with you. Why don't you ask him to stay with us."

"But Ma'am. I don't want to take care of Mom and Mas Zaki."

"Mom and Zaki don't feel repotinated if you bring your child to live in our house. There were no children in our house either. Even if there's a child you live in the mother's house."

"But I have to get permission from Mas Adnan and Ms. Retno. I can't take Aluna without their permission."

"Lho, you're his mother. Supposedly, you are more entitled to take care of Aluna than Adnan."

"But Mas Adnan has taken custody of Aluna Bu."

"Yes you can take back your custody. Don't lose to your ex-husband. Aluna wants to stay with you."

Aluna had been staring at Holy Ma'am and Mila. Aluna was hoping that Mila would take her away.

Aluna has not liked Monika for a long time. Because Aluna already knew how the character of her stepmother was.

"Mom, may I come with Mama!" Aluna still begged Mila to take her away.

"Mama, I'm afraid of Aunt Monika. He never loved me. He was very fierce Ma," continued Aluna.

Mila and Holy Mother stared at each other.

"Mila, just take your child. Poor him Mil. I can't bear to see your child" said Holy Mother.

Mila took a long breath. Without much thought, Mila finally agreed to the words of Holy Mother to take Aluna away.

"Alright, you can come with Mama. But you have to get permission first, same as your teacher. Because it's not time to go home yet."

"Yes Ma."

Before leaving, Mila enters Aluna's school for permission from Aluna's teacher. After Aluna's teacher allows her, Mila then invites Aluna to leave her school.

Aluna, Holy Ma'am and Mila walked to get to the car parked in front of the school. After arriving, the three of them got into the car. They then slide off leaving Aluna's school.

"Aluna, why don't you like Aunt Monika?" ask Mila to her son.
